NDC Daily

My Dear Fellow Nigerians, Haba! How did we get here? How do we watch a man bleed for us, Yes! he literally take bullets for us and then turn around and treat his sacrifice like yesterday’s news? For three unbroken years, Peter Obi has been on the streets. Not in Dubai. Not in some air-conditioned mansion waiting for election season. He has been moving from city to city, town to town, village to village, and country to country, rain or shine, day or night, keeping the flame of opposition alive when almost everyone else had gone quiet. He has visited hospitals where our people lay broken by calamity. He has sat with IDPs, wiped tears, shared meals, and reminded forgotten Nigerians that they are still seen. He has poured his own money, conservatively around ₦300 million, every single month, Donations to Almajiri schools and schools of nursing across the land, boreholes, and donations to victims of disaster, as well as to his hotels, transport, and staff allowances. Do the math: that is ₦3.6 billion every single year for three good years and still counting, relentless giving, just to keep the opposition going. While he was doing all this, they came for his family. His wife was attacked. His son was attacked. His brother’s property in Lagos was demolished. And in his own businesses, the businesses he built with his bare hands before any of us knew his name and now the government inflicted losses of over ₦20 billion between 2024 and 2026 alone. Yet Peter Obi never folded. He never ran. He never sold out. He simply kept standing for you, for me, for the idea that Nigeria can still be better. His only “offence”? He dared to say he wants to serve this country as President. He dared to believe that leadership should not be the exclusive property of a few godfathers or recycled politicians who only remember Nigeria exists when it is time to campaign. And now we are comparing him to Atiku? The same Atiku who used to relax in Dubai until election year, then fly in to make promises? Or Amaechi, who is nowhere to be found until the start of the coalition? Peter Obi changed that script. He brought energy, consistency, and presence. He made opposition real, not seasonal. He made politics feel human again. So I ask you, my brothers and sisters especially those of us who still have a conscience. Why are we not zoning this ADC ticket to the South to honour this man’s sacrifice? Why are we pretending that fairness, equity, and national unity are just beautiful words we say during campaigns? Peter Obi did not ask for a crown. He earned it with sweat, tears, bruises, and billions of his own money. He kept the opposition space breathing when many had given up. He stood when standing was dangerous. He gave when giving was costly. This is not about one man. This is about us. This is about whether we still have the moral courage to say “thank you” to someone who took the bullet for all of us. This is about whether we want a Nigeria where sacrifice is rewarded with respect, or one where loyalty is punished with abandonment. Well-meaning Nigerians, the eyes of history are on us right now. Let us not fail this test. Let the ADC ticket go to Peter Obi, not as charity, but as justice. Not as favour, but as the bare minimum we owe a man who has given everything so that the rest of us can still dream of a better country. For the sake of our children. For the sake of our conscience. For the sake of the Nigeria we all claim to love. Peter Obi did not fail us. The real question is, will we fail him? In tears and in hope, Yours always Ibrahim Abdulkarim

Dear Nigerians, I genuinely understand the need for us to celebrate, but congratulations are premature. This is the time for the ADC, indeed everyone to shine their eye & double-check all calculations I like to play the devil’s advocate sometimes. See me as your fresh set of eyes. While others celebrate, people like us brood for the nation. I have followed Nigeria’s political history for the last decade. I know the mind of the “Danger Diabolic” & how it works. There should be no room for error. You are dealing with the Mafioso All institutions are carefully maintained. It’s a mimic of democracy, to give the judiciary a nice look with the masses. But I know the mindset of the man you guys are dealing with. Today’s verdict is a ruse, the type taken too far! I’m a sceptic for a reason. You don’t win the battle & lose the war. While you celebrate, I brood. I do so because I have been bitten far too many times by the APC. Those guys are unthinking & unyielding, saboteurs even! Has Opposition ever won a case in court against the ruling party (since May 2023)? My question contains all the answer you need! The Supreme Court has merely been given the much needed breather. Therefore, I will only celebrate after the May 30 deadline. Frankly speaking, we shouldn’t be in any kind of celebratory mood. WE SHOULD BE ANGRY! That should always be our mood going into 2027. This is all part of Wike & Asiwaju’s game plan. To throw you guys off balance, take you unawares. They will strike at the very last min. When you guys must have dropped the ball. They want to make it even harder for you to be able to bounce back (after the May 30 deadline has elapsed). Anything can still happen at the Federal High Court. The case in point will now have to be heard & determined by that lower court. In there? Anything can happen. My advice to you is? SHINE YOUR EYE! 👀
