 GOVERNMENT OF RIVERS STATE   PRESS STATEMENT  MY DECISION TO WITHDRAW FROM THE RIVERS  STATE  GUBERNATORIAL PRIMARIES  Fellow Rivers People, After deep reflection and extensive consultations with my family, friends, and associates, I have taken the difficult but necessary decision to withdraw from the APC gubernatorial primaries. I do so with a full heart and with a firm commitment to support whoever emerges as the candidate of our great party. Leadership is ultimately about sacrifice. There comes a time when personal ambition must yield to the greater good of the people. Rivers State is bigger than any individual, and at this critical moment, the peace, stability, and unity of our dear state must take precedence over every personal interest.

 Igboho Rejects Pressure to Endorse Atiku, Obi, or Sowore for 2027 Presidency


Yoruba nation activist Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, has firmly rejected any pressure to endorse the 2027 presidential ambitions of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Labour Party's Peter Obi, or activist-politician Omoyele Sowore.


Igboho's declaration came in response to criticisms from Sowore, who in a viral video accused certain regional agitators and influencers, including Igboho, of engaging in "transactional politics" by aligning with political figures for personal or material gains. Sowore specifically labeled Igboho's approach as "amala politics," a term implying opportunistic, benefit-driven dealings, and linked it to Igboho's apparent support for President Bola Tinubu's potential reelection bid.


In a statement issued through his media aide, Olayomi Koiki, in Ibadan, Oyo State, Igboho dismissed Sowore's remarks as an "inconsequential rant" that the public should ignore. He strongly denied accusations of transactional activism, insisting that his efforts center on advocating for effective grassroots security in the South-West region and across Nigeria.


The statement read in part: "We strongly reject the characterisation of Igboho’s activism as transactional. Such a myopic position misrepresents the intent and focus of our agitation on effective grassroots security in the South-West and Nigeria as a whole."


Igboho questioned Sowore's own credentials, asking how many protests the activist had organized to secure his freedom during past challenges, and contrasted it with reports of Sowore's alleged high daily lodging expenses of N450,000 at a Lagos hotel, which he said undermined claims of fighting for the masses.


Reaffirming his autonomy, Igboho emphasized: "I cannot be compelled to endorse political figures such as Peter Obi or Atiku Abubakar, or even align with Sowore’s political platform. I have the right to make independent political decisions based on the security and collective interests of the Yoruba people."
