 NUT Protest : Wike Warns Against Politicising Insecurity The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has warned against politicising insecurity amid protests by the Nigeria Union of Teachers, FCT wing, over the killing and abduction of school staff and children in Oyo State. Teachers stormed the FCTA Secretariat in Abuja to condemn the killing of Michael Oyedokun and to demand the release of abducted pupils and teachers from Community High School, Ahoro-Esinle in Oriire Local Government Area. The FCT minister addressed the protesters on Tuesday, saying the federal government is on its toes working to secure the rescue of the schoolchildren and their teachers. Wike urged protesters to avoid turning the tragedy into a political issue and to give security efforts time to produce results.

 Adeyanju: Only Goodluck Jonathan Can Defeat Tinubu, Peter Obi Lacks Northern Trust


Human rights activist and lawyer Deji Adeyanju has declared that former President Goodluck Jonathan is the only Southerner capable of defeating President Bola Tinubu in a presidential election. Speaking on Arise Television, Adeyanju dismissed the prospects of Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, stating that Northern voters would not trust Obi to uphold a promise to serve only one term as president.


Adeyanju’s comments come in response to Obi’s recent statement expressing willingness to serve a single term and hand over power to the North. Obi, alongside former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and former Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi, is considered a leading contender for a potential coalition presidential ticket, though none have officially declared their candidacy.


“I have said it publicly, and I want to reiterate that even if a Southerner were to contest, the only person who stands the chance of defeating Tinubu is Goodluck Jonathan,” Adeyanju said. He argued that Jonathan’s single remaining term makes him a viable candidate. Regarding Obi, he added, “Even if he swears in a shrine, [Northerners] will not believe him, and they will not vote for him.”


Adeyanju also suggested that Atiku could bolster a younger Northern candidate’s chances by stepping aside. “The idea that it must always be me does not have to always be you on the stage. You can be off the stage and be supporting somebody that is standing on the stage,” he stated.


The remarks highlight the complex dynamics of regional trust and political strategy as Nigeria approaches future elections.
