Northerners Want Jonathan To Replace Tinubu

  WHY WOULD NIGERIANS BRING BACK GOODLUCK JONATHAN AS PRESIDENT IN 2027 ?


By: National Watch Correspondent

IBRAHIM KABIR UMAR Reporting Live from

Abuja, Nigeria.


A powerful wave of public sentiment is sweeping across Nigeria as citizens from all walks of life are calling for the return of former President Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan to lead the nation once again in 2027.


Under the trending hashtags #BringBackGoodluck2027, 

#RestoreNigeriaWithGEJ2027, and #GoodluckForPeaceAndProgressWithGEJ2027, Nigerians across social media platforms are demanding a restoration of the nation’s economic stability, democratic integrity, and unity that many say characterized the Jonathan era.


According to the emerging Goodluck 2027 Presidential Movement, the call is not just political, it is patriotic. The movement describes Dr. Jonathan as “a symbol of peace, a man of vision, and a father of democracy.”


Supporters argue that during Jonathan’s leadership between 2010 and 2015, Nigeria witnessed relative economic growth, improved education, infrastructural expansion, steady electricity supply, and a stronger image in the international community.


> “When Goodluck led, Nigeria had hope. We had jobs, stability, and peace. The difference is clear,” said Mrs. Funke Olatunji, a Lagos-based entrepreneur who joined the campaign online.


Political analysts also note that Jonathan’s leadership style was characterized by tolerance, diplomacy, and respect for democratic values, qualities that many say are missing in today’s political climate.


Amid economic hardships, rising insecurity, and growing public dissatisfaction, citizens are increasingly nostalgic for the period of national calm and development that marked the former president’s tenure.


The Goodluck 2027 Campaign Movement has described its mission as one to “restore Nigeria’s lost glory through experience, humility, and wisdom.” The group insists that Jonathan’s comeback would not be about ambition but about “a rescue mission for a nation in distress.”


Dr. Jonathan, who has so far remained silent on his political intentions, is now at the center of a massive nationwide conversation. Observers believe that if he chooses to contest, his return could redefine the 2027 presidential race.


> “He is the bridge between the old and the new Nigeria,” says Chief Innocent Okorie, a political commentator from Enugu. “His return could bring back a leadership that listens and governs with fairness.”


As the movement gains momentum, thousands of Nigerians have begun organizing rallies, online campaigns, and public discussions under the unifying slogan:

“One Last Term to Restore Nigeria’s Hope with GEJ 2027.”


The public’s message is clear and resounding: “NIGERIA NEEDS GOODLUCK AGAIN 2027”

INEC RECOGNIZES ABURE AS LABOUR PARTY CHAIRMAN AFTER LONG BATTLE WITH PARTY UNRECOGNIZED STOCKHOLDERS

     INEC RECOGNIZES ABURE AS LABOUR PARTY CHAIRMAN AFTER LONG BATTLE WITH PARTY UNRECOGNIZED STOCKHOLDERS 

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has finally recognized Barrister Julius Abure as the National Chairman of the Labour Party, along with Alhaji Umar Farouk Ibrahim as the National Secretary. 


This development comes after a long-standing legal battle and a recent court order compelling INEC to recognize the Abure-led leadership.


According to reports, Abure and Ibrahim attended a quarterly consultative meeting between INEC and political parties, where Abure congratulated INEC's acting chair, Mrs. Agbamuche Mbu, on her appointment. 


Via another handle, the Labour Party's National Publicity Secretary, Obiora Ifoh, confirmed that INEC has been asked to upload the party's candidates for the FCT Area Council elections.


This recognition is expected to bring stability to the Labour Party, which has been embroiled in internal conflicts and leadership disputes. 


The supreme court's decision and INEC's subsequent recognition are seen as a major victory for the Abure's leadership. 


However, with this INEC Abure's recognition action, the party's crisis is definitely now over and should remain a thing in the past, while other factions and stakeholders will have no more legal voice to continue to disturb the Abure led leadership ahead of the 2027 general elections.

AFRICAN REFORMATION PARTY SEEKS INEC REGISTRATION HAVING MET ALL CONSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENTS

AFRICAN REFORMATION PARTY SEEKS INEC REGISTRATION HAVING MET ALL CONSTITUTIONAL 

REQUIREMENTS 


...Adams Tanko Reporting Live from Abuja, Nigeria.

The African Reformation Party (ARP) has formally requested the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to register it as a political party in Nigeria. 

According to the party's leadership, ARP has met all constitutional requirements for registration.


The ARP submitted its first intent letter to INEC in January 2021, and yet another intent sent on November 14 after the 2023 general elections. 

ARP National Chairman & INEC Commissioner 

 

The party's national chairman, Hon. Mutiu Olakunle Okunola, and legal consultant, Emmanuel O. Aliyu Esq., have been spearheading the registration process.


Interestingly, ARP claims to have been the first to submit an official logo with a mace as its symbol. 


However, INEC seems to have given preference to the All Democratic Alliance (ADA), a newly formed political association, for the same logo. 

ARP alleges that it has been waiting for INEC's response since the COVID-19 sit-at-home period.


ARP asserts that it has fulfilled all necessary conditions for registration as a political party. 


The party has a national executive council and state leadership in place, meeting the requirements outlined in the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria (as amended) and the Electoral Act 2022.


The ARP leadership, accompanied by state chairmen and national executive council members, staged a peaceful protest at the INEC headquarters. 

They were received by a commissioner who promised to take their request to INEC's leadership.


The registration of new political parties could reshape Nigeria's political landscape ahead of the 2027 general elections. 


While some analysts see this development as a positive step towards deepening democracy, others express concerns about the potential for increased fragmentation and the challenges of sustaining new parties.


INEC has received numerous applications for party registration, with 171 associations currently in the process. Recently, the commission shortlisted 14 associations that met the initial requirements for registration. 


These associations will undergo further verification before being granted full registration.


The ARP leadership is urging INEC to register the party, citing its commitment to transparency, accountability, and adherence to electoral laws. 


By registering ARP, the party believes it can contribute to Nigeria's democratic growth and provide an alternative voice in the political landscape.

BTV RELEASES FIRST STAGE RESULTS OF ANAMBRA 2025 GOVERNORSHIP OPINION POLLS ...APGA and Labour Party Take Early Lead as Second Stage Voting Begins

        BTV RELEASES FIRST STAGE RESULTS OF ANAMBRA 2025 GOVERNORSHIP OPINION POLLS


...APGA and Labour Party Take Early Lead as Second Stage Voting Begins



By Our Correspondent

UCHENNA OKOROCHA Reporting Live from 

Awka, Anambra State.


The build-up to the 2025 Anambra State Governorship election gained momentum yesterday as the BTV Television Network officially released the results of the first stage of its public opinion polls. 


The announcement, made on Thursday, September 19th, 2025, has already sparked heated discussions among political watchers, party faithful, and the general public.


The polls, which ran from September 1st to September 19th, were designed to gauge voter sentiment and test the strength of the leading political parties ahead of the main governorship election. 


According to BTV’s polling team, thousands of Anambra residents participated actively, casting their votes through the network’s opinion platforms.

THE RESULTS:

The first stage results, released ahead of the second and final stage of polling, show the following breakdown:


ALL PROGRESSIVES GRAND ALLIANCE (APGA): 3,434 votes


LABOUR PARTY (LP): 2,988 votes


PEOPLES DEMOCRATIC PARTY (PDP): 608 votes


ALL PROGRESSIVES CONGRESS (APC): 232 votes


AFRICAN DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS (ADC): 205 votes


From the outcome, it is clear that the contest is shaping into a two-horse race between APGA and the Labour Party, with both parties commanding overwhelming support when compared to their rivals.


BTV has confirmed that the second stage of voting will commence at 12 midnight, September 19th, and run until October 30th, 2025, at 12 noon. 


The climax of the exercise will be a live candidates’ debate on October 30th, featuring only the top three political parties based on the opinion poll standings.


Organizers believe that the debate will provide an avenue for candidates to directly engage the electorate, defend their manifestos, and attempt to sway undecided voters. 


The debate will also serve as the final opportunity for the public to cast their votes in the opinion polls before BTV makes its concluding announcement. 


BTV Television Network has a history of conducting opinion polls on major elections in Nigeria. 

Established in 2010 in Abuja, the network first gained recognition during the presidential polls of that year when it conducted a nationwide survey that correctly predicted the victory of then-President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.







Since then, the organization has expanded its scope, running similar exercises in state and national elections, earning both praise and criticism for its efforts to democratize public opinion.


The first stage results provide early insights into the dynamics of Anambra’s governorship race. APGA’s lead underscores the party’s entrenched grassroots structures and historical influence in the state. 


However, the Labour Party’s strong showing reflects a growing momentum, particularly among younger voters energized by recent political movements.


The PDP, once dominant in Anambra politics, finds itself in a distant third place, while the APC and ADC remain fringe contenders with minimal support.


Analysts suggest that the second stage of voting and the candidates’ debate will be critical in shaping final voter opinions. 


The ability of APGA and LP candidates to consolidate support, while also reaching undecided voters, may ultimately determine the direction of the race.


The announcement has already triggered debates across social media, town halls, and marketplaces in Anambra. 


Many residents see the polls as a reflection of the people’s voice, while others question the accuracy and representativeness of such surveys.


BTV, however, maintains that its methodology is transparent and that the exercise serves as an avenue for civic engagement rather than a definitive forecast of election outcomes.


As the countdown to the grand finale of the BTV opinion polls begins, Anambra residents and the Nigerian political class at large will be watching closely. 


The coming weeks promise intense campaigning, strategic alliances, and heightened political activity, all culminating in what could be one of the most closely contested governorship polls in the state’s history.
