"It is obvious the ruling party is jittery, and that is why they are going all out, frenetically, to try to showcase and pretend that all is well. But if you read the news today, you will see that the APC is indeed a house of commotion. From Benue to Zamfara and so many other places, they are fighting themselves like babies fighting for lollipops." -Dele Momodu, ADC Chieftain #SunriseDaily

"Everybody that goes to the APC now is going there for various reasons. If you are a governor, you are afraid for your second term. If you are a governor, you are afraid of EFCC. If you are a governor, you are afraid of ICPC. If you are a governor, you are afraid of so many things, including your own shadow. A governor will voluntarily go into slavery and servitude because they know the leadership they are dealing with is not a regular leadership; it is not Goodluck Jonathan." -Dele Momodu, ADC Chieftain #SunriseDaily

APC is supposed to be an offshoot of the Buhari administration, yet every day, it is APC itself that is blaming Buhari and blaming APC. So when you see a situation like that, you will wonder if these guys are serious at all, says ADC Chieftain, Dele Momodu. Now they are saying, oh yeah, they stabilised the exchange rates against the dollar. I laugh. They forget to tell us where the dollar was when they took power. They tell us today they are running budgets in trillions. But they forget to tell us what they have done with the trillions, and have they been able to balance the budget? They tell you that, oh, there is no government ever like the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. You (Tinubu’s govt) have taken more loans than all the governments of Nigeria combined. We have not seen the effects of that loan. So, a lot is going on that Nigerians cannot understand, but there is a preponderance of propagandists who are willing to delete their brains and sell their souls. #SunriseDaily

2027: Nobody in the North has business to contest for the presidency at the moment. It is the South's turn; they should complete their eight years if we are really serious about this country and leadership. - Umaru Fintiri, Adamawa governor @sunrisedailynow #CTVtweets

Chamberlain Usoh: Do you have a good relationship with Atiku Abubakar? Gov Fintiri of Adamawa State: I still have. There is nothing that has gone bad. It is just that everybody has taken their political ways, and I am today in APC, they are in another party…. A northerner has no business at the moment to vie for the office of the president. @SunriseDailyNow #CTVtweets

"APC wants to block all breathing space for the opposition so that they will kill the opposition. What destroyed the PDP, for instance, is the presidential ambition of Tinubu. They want to emasculate the opposition parties, and you can see they have made it now a law; they have made it into law. What you are seeing is a conscious effort of a party that is unpopular, that knows it will lose if it allows a free, fair, and credible election, so they want to use institutionalised methods to rig the election before even the day of the election." - Kenneth Okonkwo, ADC National Working Committee member and Lawyer #SunriseDaily

INEC says they have the capacity to transmit, but you (APC), who don't know anything, are saying INEC cannot transmit. APC wants to snuff us (the opposition) out of the electoral process, and we are gasping for breath, but we will win. APC started their digitalised registration almost last year, and they now came to make it a law and said a month for parties. Some parties were registered just last month for the first time, and then you are giving them this herculean task that you cannot give INEC." -Kenneth Okonkwo, ADC Chieftain #SunriseDaily
