  NO COMPROMISE: Nigerians Demand Transparent 2027 Elections As Nigeria approaches the 2027 general elections, a growing chorus of citizens is insisting on one non-negotiable demand: full transparency in the electoral process, including the instant electronic transmission of results. Across the country, Nigerians are increasingly vocal that the integrity of the ballot must not be sacrificed for political convenience. At the heart of the debate is the method of transmitting election results. Many citizens, civil society groups, and democratic advocates argue that real-time electronic transmission is critical to safeguarding votes, preventing manipulation, and restoring confidence in the system. They see it not merely as a technological upgrade, but as a democratic necessity in a nation where electoral credibility has long been questioned. Concerns have also been raised about the stance of the National Assembly, with critics arguing that any move perceived as weakening electronic...

Nigeria stands once again at a dangerous crossroads. The ongoing attempt by the Tinubu-led APC government to undermine the electronic transmission of election results is not about reform, innovation, or electoral integrity. It is a deliberate, calculated plan to manipulate the 2027 general elections and impose power on Nigerians against their will. This desperation did not arise in a vacuum. It is born out of clear awareness within government circles that the APC can no longer win a free, fair, and transparent election in Nigeria. After years of economic hardship, rising insecurity, youth unemployment, a collapsing naira, and deepening poverty, the verdict of Nigerians is obvious: this government has failed abysmally . Rather than return to the people with solutions, the APC has chosen the darker path— tampering with the electoral process itself . Electronic transmission of results was introduced to reduce rigging, human interference, and post-election manipulation. Nigerians emb...

Prime News Desk. A group known as the Owan Conscience Group has launched a major grassroots sensitization campaign against Senator Adams Oshiomhole over his reported interest in a second term in the Senate. The group claims that the Edo North senatorial seat is rightfully due to Owan West, arguing that during the last senatorial elections, Senator Oshiomhole of the APC disregarded the interests of the Owan people and returned the seat to Estako, leaving Owan West and Akoko Edo without strong leadership representation in the Senate. Speaking at a press briefing in Benin City, Barr Ofeimu, the leader of the group and a member of the APC from Owan West, accused Senator Oshiomhole and the APC of uneven distribution of political offices in Edo North, noting that the rotational dynamics historically observed in the region have been ignored. The group also criticized Senator Oshiomhole’s tenure in the Senate so far, arguing that there has been no tangible contribution to the development of Ed...
