Take it or leave it’: Ajadi drops a message on Ogun 2027 leadership
“Take it or leave it’: Ajadi drops a message on Ogun 2027 leadership
[11/24, 10:41 AM] johnsonakinpelu: Olufemi Ajadi Oguntoyinbo, a notable youth advocate and influential voice in Nigeria’s emerging political space, has clarified his position ahead of the 2027 general elections, stating that although he may not personally contest in Ogun State, the Ajadi Movement is poised to play a decisive role in determining who wins
[11/24, 10:49 AM] johnsonakinpelu: Speaking with journalists on Monday after a series of consultations with political stakeholders across the South-West, Ajadi said the movement has grown beyond his individual ambition and has developed into a formidable political structure with statewide and nationwide acceptance.
“I may not contest in Ogun State,” he declared, “but the Ajadi Movement will take the centre of the party that will take victory of leadership come 2027 — take it or leave it.”
Ajadi Movement
What began as a youth-driven civic advocacy platform has rapidly transformed into a broad political network with coordinators across all local governments in Ogun State and active supporters throughout Nigeria.
The movement’s emphasis on civic mobilisation, community empowerment, and welfare-focused politics has resonated with thousands of young Nigerians frustrated by traditional political patterns.
Political analysts describe the Ajadi Movement as one of the most organised grassroots blocs in Ogun State and across parts of the North and South-East, possessing the capacity to swing victory for any major political platform it ultimately aligns with.
According to Ajadi, discussions are ongoing among leaders and pillars of the movement nationwide, but the final decision on which party to support will depend on which platform demonstrates genuine commitment to youth inclusion, economic reform, and transparent governance.
We are not selling our mandate to the highest bidder,” he emphasized. “We will align only with a party that is ready to transform Ogun State and Nigeria at large — one that understands that the youths must be at the centre of decision-making.”
He reiterated that the movement’s priority is not personal ambition but ensuring that credible leadership emerges in 2027.
This movement is bigger than one person,” he stated. “Whether I am on the ballot or not, the Ajadi Movement will determine who leads. The people trust us, and we will not disappoint them.”
He also urged Nigerian youths to remain politically aware and resist being used as instruments of violence or manipulation.
Beyond his influence in Ogun State, Ajadi has been actively involved in nationwide dialogues on youth empowerment, restructuring, and national unity.
His growing visibility in political conversations, especially in Oyo State, has led analysts to speculate about a possible role for him in federal politics or even a governorship contest in his father’s home state come 2027.
For now, however, Ajadi maintains that the focus is on building a political machinery capable of shaping leadership outcomes at both state and national levels.
“We are redefining politics,” he said. “By 2027, Nigerians will witness the strength of a movement built on integrity, sacrifice, and people-oriented leadership.”
AN OPEN LETTER TO NIGERIANS ON DONALD TRUMP’S LOVE FOR NIGERIAN CHRISTIANS by Chief Femi Fani-Kayode
“I think Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace. They are killing people by the thousands. It is a genocide and I am really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidy to Nigeria. We are going to end up stopping. The government has done nothing. They are very ineffective. They are killing Christians at will. You know, until I got involved in it two weeks ago, nobody even talked about it”- President Donald Trump, 21st November 2025.
Dear Fellow Nigerians,
Is it not strange to you that each time this blonde-haired, blue-eyed, bully, racist, white supremacist and religious bigot and this ill-bred, ill-informed, recalcitrant war-monger and beastly creature opens its foul mouth more attacks, killings and abductions take place in Nigeria?
Has it not occurred to you that he is actually fuelling the insurgency with his words and constant denigrating of our people, Armed Forces and Government?
Is this not an attempt to create a clear justification for that they really wish to do to us: namely invade and bomb us to kingdom come and then divide our country.
This is the same way they demonised the Government of Sudan before unleashing the Janjaweed militia known as the RSF on them and creating carnage in Darfur.
This is what they did to Congo DRC too before the butchery started.
Is it not strange to you that the man that says he wants to deliver and protect Christians in Nigeria welcomed with open arms the greatest butcher of Christians on the planet by the name of Ahmed Al Sharaa, the President of Syria, only the other day and even gave him and his wife a bottle of “sweet” perfume in the full glare of the media.
Apparently he loves the Christians of Nigeria but hates the Christians of Syria. He also hates the Christians of Gaza!
What an interesting paradox and contradiction this is and only a dim-witted village idiot will be fooled by it.
Claiming that the King of Mara Lago cares about Nigerian Christians is like claiming that the proverbial wolf cares about Little Red Riding Hood or that Count Dracula cares about beautiful women. Believe such nonsense at your own peril.
The Orange Man’s motivation for expressing concern about the plight of Christians at the hands of the terrorists in Nigeria is gain and not love and as for the plight of the Muslims he couldn’t care less.
The script is clear: stoke, provoke and fund chaos, discredit and weaken the sitting Government, incite the people, engender regime change and spark off a civil war which will enable you to pick up the spoils and plunder the nation dry.
Their evil eye is now on Nigeria. They say we have done nothing to stop the killing but they won’t tell you what they have done to support, enhance and encourage it for the last fifteen years?
They won’t tell you why they do not sell us the arms we need to fight the war or share the necessary intelligence with us.
They won’t tell you why they refused to designate Boko Haram as a terrorist organisation until 2015.
They won’t tell you why they imposed an arms embargo on Nigeria.
They won’t tell you why they have refused to offer even the smallest assistance to our Armed Forces in this war over the last few years and up till now.
They won’t tell you that they created Al Qaeda, ISIS, Boko Haram, the Taliban, Al Shabab, Al Nusra, Ansaru and Lakurawa right from the outset whilst pretending to fight them.
They won’t tell you the carnage they unleashed on Libya, Iraq, Syria, Egypt, Congo, Sudan, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Somalia, Gaza, Yemen, Palestine, Ukraine, Central African Republic, Venezuela, Mali, Chad, Niger, Burkina Faso and elsewhere through their sponsored militias and opposition fighters.
They won’t tell you why they have now focused on Nigeria and why they are attempting to do same to South Africa.
Nigeria’s case is even more pitiful and we are clearly being set up for the kill.
Every time we make progress economically those that do not wish us well from outside our shores undermine the efforts of our Government and they do so in collaboration with members of the opposition.
It happened with OBJ, UMYA, GEJ and now it is happening with BAT.
For the last 60 years Nigeria has been the victim and target of a vicious, well- planned and well-orchestrated international conspiracy and the ugly events of the last ten years and particularly the last one week prove that.
Every time we take ten steps forward they band together with their local co-conspirators and treacherous assets and take us twenty steps back because their greatest nightmare is a strong, independent, united, flourishing Nigeria that brings pride and dignity to Africa and the black race.
Any Nigerian that takes pleasure in what is unfolding in our country today and the security challenges we are facing is either a sadist, a masochist or simply naive and unpatriotic.
This is not about Tinubu but about our country. The terrorists are being funded and supported by a dark, sinister and relentless foreign force that seeks to tear us apart, destroy us, humiliate us, rob us, occupy our land, steal our resources, pillage our rare earth minerals, erase our identity, distort our heritage, re-define our history and control the entire globe.
They are doing the same thing in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, South America, Asia, South East Asia and much of the world.
Those that applaud that evil force and encourage it to enter our shores and bomb us in the name of trying to help us fight the terrorists that they themselves are funding do not understand world politics and have no knowledge of history.
There is not one country that the Americans have entered with bombs and violence and left better than the way they found it.
Outside of that once we lose our sovereignty we will never get it back.
Once we rely on another country to fight our battles for us we are no longer a nation but a vassal state of cowardly field hands and slaves.
The solution to the problem is to support and encourage our Government and Armed Forces to face the challenge squarely and win this war.
Whatever it takes it is their obligation and duty to do this and with our support and understanding they surely will.
There is room for criticism and even anger but there is no room for disloyalty to the national cause, betrayal and collaboration with those that want to bring our country to her knees.
Things are tough and the enemy appears to be gaining ground but we must keep faith with God and have confidence that our President can and will turn things around.
This is a time to pray for Nigeria and to pray for our leaders and Armed Forces and not to gloat or cheer on those who mock, despise, undermine and insult us and that subvert our efforts.
This is a time to show those that have described us as being “a disgrace” that we are more than able to handle our own affairs and solve our problems despite their obvious malice and acts of sabotage.
This is a time to have faith in our country and our people and remember God’s promise and word that Nigeria shall be great again.
This is a time to line up behind our President and let him know that despite all that is happening we still have confidence in him and that he is not alone.

A Cry for Help: PNM Demands Immediate Protection for Mrs. Susan Sophia Ogunremi
A Cry for Help: PNM Demands Immediate Protection for Mrs. Susan Sophia Ogunremi
The Patriotic Now Movement (PNM) expresses grave concern over the repeated and life-threatening attacks on Mrs. Susan Sophia Ogunremi, a Nigerian woman whose ongoing ordeal reflects the broader insecurity and vulnerability faced by innocent citizens across the country. Her case urgently requires the full attention of government authorities and immediate intervention by security agencies.
Verified reports indicate that Mrs. Ogunremi’s family has endured years of targeted assaults allegedly carried out by suspected cult groups. Their ordeal began in Sagamu, Ogun State, where members of the Eiye Confraternity reportedly attacked and killed her husband’s parents and younger brother. This tragedy forced the family to flee in 2022 and seek refuge in Lagos State.
However, safety remained elusive. On 13 April 2022, the family was again attacked along the Igbogbo-Bayeku Road in Ikorodu, Lagos State, by suspected cultists who were believed to have trailed them. Fearing for his life, her husband later relocated abroad in search of safety and stability.
Despite her efforts to rebuild her life quietly, the terror resumed. On 8 November 2025, Mrs. Ogunremi was assaulted yet again—this time in Shomolu, Lagos State—leaving her with a painful shoulder injury. The persistence of these attacks across multiple locations and over several years strongly indicates that she remains under targeted surveillance and imminent threat.
The Patriotic Now Movement finds this situation deeply disturbing and wholly unacceptable. No Nigerian should be abandoned to confront such relentless harassment and danger. Mrs. Ogunremi’s case highlights the urgent need for improved intelligence gathering, swift security response, and coordinated efforts to dismantle violent cult networks nationwide.
In view of these alarming developments, PNM calls on the Federal Government of Nigeria, the Nigeria Police Force, the Department of State Services (DSS), and the Lagos and Ogun State Governments to immediately intervene. We urge them to launch a comprehensive investigation into the attacks, provide adequate security for Mrs. Ogunremi, and ensure that the perpetrators are swiftly apprehended and prosecuted.
PNM also appeals to human rights organisations, civil society groups, and community leaders to amplify this call and stand in solidarity with all Nigerians facing similar threats, especially those who lack the means or platform to seek help. Protecting vulnerable citizens is not only a constitutional duty—it is a moral obligation.
The Patriotic Now Movement reaffirms its unwavering commitment to justice, safety, and the protection of all Nigerians. We maintain that every citizen has the right to live without fear, and we will continue to advocate until cases like this receive the urgent attention and decisive action they deserve.

Olalere Benedict Adetunji
President,
