ABACHA'S SON SET TO CONTEST FOR KANO STATE GUDER SEAT.

-

The Presidency may have finally cleared the coast for Mohammed Abacha, the son of late General Sani Abacha, to join forces with pro Jonathan supporters and win back Kano State for Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, next year. Competent sources told Vanguard that Wednesday's withdrawal of the N446.3 billion money laundering charge against Abacha was aimed at giving him a clean bill to be able to run as PDP gubernatorial candidate in the next election.
A close associate of the family admitted, yesterday, that the Abachas were very excited about the withdrawal of the case against Mohammed by the Attorney General of the Federation, Mohammed
Adoke, and that he would likely proceed with his gubernatorial campaign programme.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has strongly rejected mounting calls from political leaders and stakeholders in Southern Nigeria urging him to step aside in favour of a Southern presidential candidate. The demand, which has gained traction among members of the coalition, is anchored on the principle of equity, justice, and rotation of power, with many arguing that the South deserves to complete its turn at the presidency. In a statement released after a closed-door meeting with leaders of ADC, the former Vice President declared that he would not bow to pressure, and called on the coalition to uphold democracy by allowing open and transparent primaries. “I will not be pressured into abandoning my constitutional right to aspire. Let every qualified member test their popularity through a credible primary. Zoning must not be used to silence competence," Atiku stated emphatically.

  "When real leaders move, pretenders panic." In another bold, calculated and strategic political maneuvering that’s already shaking and threatening to break the tables, the National Chairman of the Labour Party, Barrister Julius Abure, yesterday led a high-powered delegation to the residence of Dr. Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, former Vice Presidential candidate of the party. He was accompanied by Hon. Chinedu Obika (Member, Federal House of Representatives for AMAC/Bwari Federal Constituency, FCT) and Hon. Benedict Etanabene (Member, Federal House of Representatives for Uvwie Federal Constituency, Delta State). This was not a social visit. This was movement. This was alignment. And this was Abure making another bold statement without saying a word. This high-level meeting is not just symbolic, it’s seismic. It sends a resounding message across the political spectrum. The centre is holding, and it is holding under Julius Abure. Dr. Ahmed Datti is widely respected for his integrity...
