No retreat No surrender

@ziter001 We dey with you bro! 💯 PO has shown unwavering commitment, sacrifice, and love for Nigeria. The movement is strong and we stand firm with Peter Obi. Let’s keep the faith and push for what is right! #POforPresident #WeAreWithPO

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

Congratulations on the Supreme Court victory affirming Sen. David Mark & Aregbesola. But how do we remove the trap set by the FHC? The matter is returning there for further proceedings — what’s the strategy to neutralize that and get full INEC recognition + control of structures without more delays? This win must not be pyrrhic. Clear steps needed pls.

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) congratulates all our members and leaders across the country on today’s Supreme Court ruling which affirmed the leadership of our party under Senator David Mark as National Chairman, and Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola as National Secretary. Today’s decision is a clear affirmation that our party, its structures, and its leadership under our National Chairman, Senator Mark, and our National Secretary, Ogbeni Aregbesola, are legitimate. We commend the five-man panel of the Supreme Court, whose unanimous judgment, has today done great credit to the judiciary in our country and our political system. However, while we welcome this judgement, we do not mistake it for the end of the struggle. The events leading up to this moment have exposed a troubling pattern of interference, bad faith, and attempts to weaken opposition voices in Nigeria. Let it be clearly stated: the ADC will not be intimidated, distracted, or silenced. We remain resolute in our mission to provide Nigerians with a credible alternative. We therefore urge all our members, supporters, and democratic stakeholders across the country to remain vigilant.

@drfolaseye Exactly Ma! You are 100% right. Their same old playbook is still very much in play — pure time-wasting tactics through endless litigation. They know the May 30 deadline is near, so they drag it to court, remand it, appeal, and repeat until ADC is locked out of the ballot. Classic gimmick to eliminate opposition by technicalities instead of facing the people. We see them clearly. No retreat, no surrender! 💪

I do not see any real cause for rejoicing in this Supreme Court judgment. The Court did not direct INEC to restore the David Mark–led executive to the INEC portal while the trial continues. We must also remember that the core dispute remains unresolved: who is the authentic national chairman—Nafiu Bala or David Mark? The case has now been sent back to the Federal High Court for a full trial involving evidence and witnesses. This process could take months, if not years. With the deadline for candidate submissions approaching on May 30, the situation effectively returns us to square one. There is now a real possibility that the ADC may not be properly positioned to participate in the election. This presents a serious political challenge that requires urgent resolution. Something has to give. The Tinubu Administration is test running Nigerians with this matter, THERE MUST BE A WAY TO CHECKMATE MADNESS!!

All Nigerians want is Prof. Joash Amupitan’s resignation. INEC has become just another arm of the APC. Release the name of the so-called organisation that did the hoax forensic investigation so Nigerians can conduct their own probe. As far as we are concerned, INEC remains deeply partisan. Amupitan must go! 🇳🇬

@donazag Bro, the Commander-in-Chief, Chief of Defence Staff, and Ministry of Defence are the ones with direct control over the military. Peter Obi is just an ordinary citizen like you and me — he has no power to command the Army or order investigations. If the military is involved, pressure the people actually in charge. #JusticeForJusticeCrack

Is Peter Obi not aware of the case of Justice Crack? Or is it only El-Rufai that matters?

Got it, thanks for breaking it down clearly sir 🙏 So Mark’s team is back in the saddle for now — party activities can resume, INEC should lift the freeze, and we push on with 2027 prep. The substantive case still goes to FHC for final verdict. As long as no fresh injunction drops, we move. ADC must not be distracted — time is not on our side for opposition unity. Appreciate the insight! 🇳🇬💪

The Supreme Court didn’t declare Mark the “permanent” chairman. It just said “the Appeal Court had no business freezing the party.” So Mark leads for now, but the FHC trial will decide the final winner. Unless Gombe gets a fresh injunction, INEC has no legal excuse to keep ADC frozen.

@DonAzag The fear of the wishes of Nigeria is the beginning of wisdom. Supreme Court has spoken — the people’s will must prevail over internal sabotage. ADC must now unite or perish. 2027 is near. No more excuses. 🇳🇬

Breaking: Supreme Court restores David Mark-led ADC leadership. Who no go fear revolution. Road blocks to removing APC: 1. Nafiu Bala 2. Atiku Abubakar 1. Deactivated. 2. Still Active

@charlesaniagolu hope this will be the end of all this brouhaha

BREAKING!!! SUPREME COURT VOIDS ADC "STATUS QUO ANTEBELLUM" ORDER. This means that the David Mark-led leadership will be restored while the matter at the Federal High Court case continues. It's a unanimous decision!

@ruffydfire He’s blatantly partisan and has to go. Time for accountability and real impartiality.

@realkenokonkwo Thanks for the update sir. With the Supreme Court setting aside the status quo and restoring the David Mark-led executive pending the trial court’s final determination, what’s the practical fate of this ruling now? Will INEC immediately recognize the Mark faction again for party activities and 2027 prep, or could the lower court/FHC rulings (like yesterday’s) create more hurdles? Appreciate any insight! 🇳🇬

@ARISEtv Hope the Supreme Court does the right thing and finally brings clarity to this ADC leadership mess. Nigeria’s democracy needs strong, united opposition parties ahead of 2027, not endless factional battles. Let justice prevail. 🇳🇬

BREAKING: ADC: SUPREME COURT VOIDS "STATUS QUO ANTEBELLUM" ORDER

@NuhuSada0 APC na something else o 😂😂 Instead of facing their own wahala, dem go quickly sponsor another agenda or court case to scatter ADC. Na their trademark! David Mark and the real delegates don speak, the rest na noise. #ADCConvention #RealADC

This is the authentic ADC convention, and David Mark has been affirmed as the National Chairman. If the Nafiu Bala Gombe ADC faction claims to have held any convention, even in a hotel room, let them present it.

@realkenokonkwo I hope they won’t dismiss that of ADC hahaha 😂 Let the drama continue!”

JUDGEMENT DAY PDP's second appeal was dismissed in a split decision, 3-2, and the Ibadan Convention annulled

I pity this country 😔 Same judiciary that just crushed PDP’s convention over technicalities will turn around and nullify ADC’s own, claiming it’s the same “antebellum shit.” They keep playing these games like Nigeria is their personal property. It’s high time we take our country back. Real revolution — citizens must send a strong message: NO ONE owns Nigeria more than WE the people! Enough is enough. #TakeBackNigeria

SUPREME COURT VOIDS PDP'S IBADAN CONVENTION The Supreme Court has voided the Ibadan Convention organized by the Tanimu Turaki-led faction of the People's Democratic Party PDP in Ibadan last November. In a split decision of three justices to two, the Apex Court in its lead judgement prepared and read by Justice Stephen Adah condemned, in strong terms, the disobedience of court orders by the Turaki camp. This is the verdict on the appeal challenging the decision of the Court of Appeal that affirms that former Jigawa State governor, Sule Lamido, was unlawfully excluded from the chairmanship race. The five-member Apex Court panel expressed displeasure with the Turaki group for its disobedience of the order of the trial court including the instruction to halt the the planned Ibadan convention until forms are sold to all those interested to run for executive positions. The Apex Court further stressed that the Ibadan Convention went ahead in defiance of a subsisting court order, an action deemed as 'condemnable'. Justices Mohammed Garba and Justice Chidioma Nwosu-Iheme are the others for the majority decisions while Justices Haruna Tsammani and Abubakar Sadiq Umar were in the minority.

@ruffydfire 😂 I told you bro, abracadabra is loading! There was no way justice was going to favour the Ibadan convention when their paymasters are fully in charge. Supreme Court don deliver exactly as predicted. Una still dey do “rule of law” play? Hahahaha 🔥

BREAKING: SUPREME COURT UPHOLDS NULLIFICATION OF IBADAN PDP CONVENTION

@PeterObi He leads, we follow! 🇳🇬 We are ready and fully behind you, Sir @PeterObi. Lead us to the Promised Land. The future belongs to those who prepare for it, and we are prepared to follow your vision. #PeterObi2027 #WeArePO

When Borrowing is Leprosy and cancerous. Mr. President, borrowing is not only a leprosy, but a killer cancer when it is borrowed for consumption and not production as it is in Nigeria today. Borrowing for consumption slowly eats away at the health, reputation, and autonomy of a nation. One of the major “leprosy” afflicting Nigeria today is not just debt, but debt without productivity. Debt that is not tied to measurable economic value. Debt that does not translate into jobs, growth, or improved living standards for the Nigerian people. No serious economy borrows recklessly. Nations borrow with discipline, with purpose, and with a clear plan for repayment through productive investment. Fiscal Responsibility Act 2007 provides that “Any government in the Federation or its agencies and corporations desirous of borrowing shall, specify the purpose for which the borrowing is intended and present a cost-benefit analysis, detailing the economic and social benefits of the purpose to which the intended borrowing is to be applied” Cost-benefit analysis must show how the loan would be applied, how it will impact economic growth and improve the welfare of Nigerian citizens in measurable ways. Most of the borrowings by this government do not satisfy the requirements of law or the requirements of economic common sense. The humongous borrowing so far does not show how the projects for the loans enhance the productive capacity of the nation and the welfare of Nigerian citizens. These loans are also dangerous because they burden the capacity of the Nigerian state to improve the economy in the future, as we have one of the world’s highest debt servicing ratios. What matters is not debt-GDP as much as debt-debt servicing ratio because the latter constrains our capacity to finance the sectors that drive human development and economic growth. If the money is wrongly spent as we do in Nigeria currently, it becomes double jeopardy because you are using current revenue to service debts that did not add to revenue or improve capacity for more production in the future. A responsible government does not merely defend borrowing; it explains it, justifies it, and most importantly, ensures it works for the people. A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

INEC’s timetable & timeline was deliberately designed to stiffen the opposition and crush them to zero 😂 This has been a well-orchestrated game plan since 2025 — perfectly arranged all the way to the Supreme Court. Any ruling you see today was already decided long ago. Evil people with zero conscience. Beware! #NigeriaDecides #INEC

@underworld_09 Another abracadabra justice system loading… Ruling drops today, our eyes go blurry again, then we rush back to Twitter to rant instead of occupying the streets like serious people. Same script, different day. Nigeria deserves better. #ADC #SupremeCourt

We're already here at the supreme court. ✊️

@ruffydfire That’s their abracadabra loading 😂 Deregistering opposition parties through the backdoor? Very bad for our democracy. Let the people decide at the ballot, not AGF and court. This is desperation level 1000. #NigeriaDecides

Why will attorney file a case to deregulated a political party

They will soon do their usual abracadabra, and our eyes will blur again. Wicked people with no conscience. They’re all relaxing in their duplexes and flashy cars, eating good, while the opposition and the masses suffer. They don’t give a damn about justice — only protecting their paymasters and securing their pockets. Nigeria deserves better!

Supreme court we await the ADC and PDP judgement
