I appreciate all our leaders, stakeholders, gubernatorial and National Assembly aspirants of the Kwara PDP who, over the last 48 hours, dedicated their time to a two-day consultative and strategic meeting that we just concluded. It reflects the kind of party we are—more like a family, united in purpose. I am confident we will stay focused and deliver for the PDP. As agreed, we will carry out further consultations, taking into account the feedback and suggestions received and will communicate our collective decision within the next 48 hours.

Yesterday, during my interview on Channels Television, I reiterated what I have always believed: the challenges within the Official PDP Nigeria are not insurmountable. To move forward as a party, however, we need to take clear and deliberate steps to get back on track. This means holding a fresh National Convention and ensuring we have a properly elected, INEC-validated National Working Committee. That is how we strengthen the party and ensure legitimacy in its processes, while restoring credibility and giving our aspirants a solid platform on which to contest in the 2027 polls. At the end of the day, we owe Nigerians a serious, united, and prepared alternative worthy of their trust and confidence.

Papilo, Kanu Nwankwo Kanu Nwankwo, is a living legend of Nigerian football. His playmaking brilliance and his leadership on the field, shaped an entire generation of our national sport. It also helps that he once wore the colours of Arsenal during one of the club’s most iconic eras. So today, as I welcomed Kanu into my office to talk about football, I found myself a fan all over again.

I just concluded a meeting in Enugu State with His Excellency, Governor Peter Mbah, alongside Senators Seriake Dickson and Ibrahim Dankwambo of the Official PDP Nigeria Strategy and Way Forward Committee. We didn’t sidestep the issues. We confronted the fractures in our foundation, asked the hard questions, and began shaping a real, workable plan to move our party forward. I believe in the PDP. I believe in what it has stood for and what it can still become, if we’re willing to do the hard, unglamorous work of rebuilding from the inside out. The road ahead won’t be easy. It will test us and demand more from each of us. But I leave Enugu more convinced than ever: we have the people, the resolve, and the clarity to rise to the occasion—and to lead again. #PowerToThePeople

We have just wrapped up the inaugural session of the Two-Day Roundtable on Insecurity in Northern Nigeria organized by The Coalition of Northern Groups. At the first session, we embarked on a comprehensive and technical discussion on the multifaceted security challenges that have beleaguered our region, with a view to identifying the appropriate solutions alongside security specialists, policymakers, and political leaders. As we prepare for the second session of the day, delving deep into the root causes and intricate dynamics of this crisis, it is my hope that the actionable and sustainable solutions that will be provided from this roundtable will be implemented to ensure the enduring peace and stability of the north and the entire nation.
