The nation was battered by poverty, decayed infrastructure, a strangled telecommunications industry, collapsed public health...

SAI ATIKU: HOW THE CPC GRASSROOTS BLOC HAS LEFT THE APC AND IS NOW POWERING THE ADC.

Aare AmerijoyeMarch 26, 2026

Aare Amerijoye DOT.B It is not the big names that win Nigerian elections. It is the men and women at the polling units. They built 2015 from the ground up. Now they have moved. And they are chanting a new name. Forget the press conferences. Elections in Nigeria are not won at that level. They...

EIGHT YEARS OF DEBT: WHY ZONING ARITHMETIC MAKES ATIKU NIGERIA’S UNAVOIDABLE CHOICE IN 2027

Aare AmerijoyeMarch 25, 2026

Aare Amerijoye DOT.B By 2027, the South will have held the presidency for 17 years and 1 month against the North’s 10 years, a structural imbalance of approximately eight years that no serious political actor can dismiss. But the ADC has already settled this debate: it is not zoning, but competence, that defines its candidate....

THE MAN THEY CANNOT STOP:WHY ATIKU ABUBAKAR REMAINS NIGERIA’S MOST QUALIFIED AND INDISPENSABLE PRESIDENTIAL CONTENDER FOR 2027

Aare AmerijoyeMarch 25, 2026

Aare Amerijoye DOT.B In Nigeria’s political history, no man has been more tested, more tried, and more vindicated by events than Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.” Nigeria does not lack for politicians.

THE TYRANT’S TREMBLING HANDS

Aare AmerijoyeMarch 24, 2026

A Presidency Built on Division, Sustained by Strain, and Marching Relentlessly Towards Reckoning Aare Amerijoye DOT.B Let us speak without ornament, without hesitation, and without the cowardice of political politeness, this presidency is not standing on strength, nor is it anchored in any overwhelming national consensus that confers moral certainty. It is standing, quite precariously,...

2027 PRESIDENCY AND THE NORTH-SOUTH ZONING CONUNDRUM IN THE FOURTH REPUBLIC:LET US BALANCE THE EQUATION WITH H.E. ATIKU ABUBAKAR AS PRESIDENT IN 2027

Aare AmerijoyeMarch 23, 2026

In this piece, I shall attempt to offer a factual and measured analysis of the north-south presidential zoning pattern in Nigeria’s Fourth Republic, the present state of that arrangement, and the path forward that best serves the interests of equity, fairness and justice as Nigeria approaches the 2027 general elections. THE FOUNDATION: 1998 TO 1999....

CONGENITAL LIAR: TINUBU CLAIMS ATIKU MET HIM IN YAR’ADUA STRUCTURE (MET HIM WITH YAR’ADUA). THE CALENDAR SAYS OTHERWISE.

Aare AmerijoyeMarch 23, 2026

Aare Amerijoye DOT.B There are lies that require elaborate investigation to expose. And then there are lies so thoroughly demolished by publicly available facts that the only question they raise is not whether they are false, but what manner of man tells them. Before we get to the lie itself, let us ask the question...

Aare AmerijoyeMarch 21, 2026

While Aso Rock dances on the grave of Nigeria’s economy, the man who built Africa’s most explosive growth decade is sharpening his sword. The 2027 reckoning is not coming. It is already here.

THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK… AND SENDS AN INVOICE

Aare AmerijoyeMarch 20, 2026

There was a time when colonial expeditions came with ships, soldiers, and sermons. Today, they come with spreadsheets, export credit facilities, and something far more efficient than gunboats: guaranteed returns. Enter Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who recently embarked on a royal courtesy visit to King Charles III, a trip so productive that one might wonder whether...

ATIKU HAS A CASE.

Aare AmerijoyeMarch 19, 2026

Aare Amerijoye DOT.B Each time I survey the wreckage of Nigeria’s recent years, I do not feel despair for its own sake. I feel urgency.
