 Renewed Crisis Looms in Benue APC as Alia Rejects Automatic Tickets for 2027 Fresh cracks have emerged in the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Benue State, threatening the fragile reconciliation between Governor Hyacinth Alia and Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), George Akume. Despite a high-level peace meeting convened on Sunday, deep disagreements persist, particularly over the contentious proposal for automatic tickets for elected officials ahead of the 2027 general elections. The renewed tension stems from a long-running power struggle between the two leaders, which began after the 2023 elections over control of the party structure and political appointments. The conflict led to the polarisation of the APC in Benue into rival factions, one loyal to Akume, led by Austin Agada, and the other aligned with Governor Alia.

 Dickson Warns Atiku, Amaechi, Others Over 2027 Political Coalition


Former Bayelsa State Governor Seriake Dickson has issued a subtle warning to leaders of an emerging political coalition, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, ex-Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi, and former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai, urging them to tread cautiously in their political maneuvers ahead of the 2027 elections.


Speaking at Amaechi’s 60th birthday celebration in Abuja on Saturday, Dickson referenced the coalition’s past actions, particularly their role in ousting the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and former President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015. He noted that the coalition’s success in removing what he described as a “clueless government” has not translated into meaningful progress for Nigerians.


“When you took out my party in 2015, we thought poverty would not be weaponized and Nigeria’s challenges would be resolved,” Dickson said. “Now, 11 years later, I urge you, as expert conspirators and coalition builders, to shine your eyes and be mindful of your choices.”


The event saw top politicians gather to honor Amaechi, with Atiku openly declaring himself, Amaechi, and El-Rufai as “conspirators” united in their opposition to President Bola Tinubu’s administration. The new coalition is reportedly being formed to challenge the current government in the 2027 general elections.


Dickson’s remarks underscored a call for reflection, warning his colleagues to consider the consequences of their political strategies on Nigeria’s future.
