The Niger Delta Improvement Fee (NDDC) was then beneath him. His duties as Minister of State have been to formulate and concern financial intelligence pointers for presidency initiatives, guarantee monitoring of initiatives and progress referring to plan implementation and supervise the Nationwide Financial Intelligence Committee (NEIC).
In 1999, President Olusegun Obasanjo GCFR appointed different Ministers of State and positioned them beneath THE PRESIDENCY. They embrace Mr. Abayomi Edu (79) and Dr. Abimbola Ogunkelu, a guide Doctor and Heart specialist, from Ibowon, Epe in Lagos state, who can be a member of the Amala group, a gaggle of eminent journalists who meets month-to-month at Bunmi Sofola’s place in Surulere, Lagos.
The schedules of those Ministers of State at the moment have been ready by the then Secretary to the Authorities of the Federation, Chief Ufot Ekaette (1939- 25 September 2019), assisted by the then Director of Particular Duties within the workplace of the Secretary of the Authorities of the Federation, Dr. Goke Adegoroye and accredited by the President, Olusegun Obasanjo GCFR.

The emergence of Prince Vincent Ogbulafor because the Nationwide Chairman of PDP was dramatic. He was dropped at the PDP headquarters in 2001 after serving as Minister of State.
President Umaru Musa Yar’adua GCFR (16 August 1951- 5 Could 2010) was ultimately declared the winner of the 2007 common elections, held on April 21, and was sworn in on Could 29, 2007, amid widespread allegations of electoral fraud. Within the Nigerian Nationwide Meeting election, the celebration gained 260 out of 360 seats within the Home of Representatives and 85 out of 109 seats within the Senate.
On the PDP’s 2008 Nationwide Conference, the celebration selected Prince Vincent Ogbulafor as its Nationwide Chairman on March 8, 2008 held in Abuja. Chief Ogbulafor, who was the PDP’s Nationwide Secretary from 2001 to 2005, was the celebration’s consensus alternative for the place of Nationwide Chairman, chosen as a substitute for the rival candidate’s former Governor Sam Egwu and Senator Anyim Pius Anyim. All 26 candidates, together with Dr Sam Egwu (70) from Ezzamgbo and Senator Pius Anyim GCON (63) from Ishiagu, each in Ebonyi state, withdrew in favour of Ogbulafor. In the meantime, Alhaji Abubakar Kawu Baraje was elected as Nationwide Secretary.
When Prince Ogbulafor made that declaration in 2008 individuals believed that his boast might come true. He was on a strong floor at the moment.
Let’s have a look at the state of affairs now. Within the Senate, All Progressive Congress (APC) has 58 seats, Peoples Democratic Celebration (PDP) has 37 seats, Labour Celebration has 7 seats, New Nigeria Folks’s Celebration has 2 seats, Social Democratic Celebration—2 seats, All Progressive Grand Alliance—1 seat and Motion Democratic Celebration—1 seat. Within the Home of Consultant, All Progressive Congress has 175 seats, Folks’s Democratic Celebration has 118 seats, Labour Celebration has 35 seats, New Nigeria Folks’s Celebration—-19 seats, All Progressive Grand Alliance—-5 seats, African Democratic Congress—2 seats, Social Democartic Celebration— 2 seats and Younger Progressive Celebration—1 seat.The PDP governors in 2008 when Prince Ogbulafor made that prediction have been Thoedore Orji (Abia State), Murtala Nyako (Adamawa), Godswill Akpabio (Akwa Ibom), Timipre Sylvia (Bayelsa), Gabriel Suswam (Benue), Ali Modu Sheriff (Borno), Liyel Moke (Cross River), Emmanuel Uduaghan (Delta), Martin Elechi (Ebonyi), Olusegun Oni (Ekiti), Sullivan Chime (Enugu), Mohammed Danjuma Goje (Gombe), Ikedi Ohakim (Imo), Sule Lamido (Jigawa) and Namadi Sambo (Kaduna),
Others have been Ibrahim Shema (Katsina), Usman Saidu Nasamu Dakingari (Kebbi), Ibrahim Idris (Kogi), Bukola Saraki (Kwara), Aliyu Doma (Nasarawa), Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu (Niger), Gbenga Daniel (Ogun), Olusegun Agagu (Ondo), Olagunsoye Oyinlola (Osun), Christopher Alao-Akala (Oyo), Jonah David Jang (Plateau), Rotimi Amaechi (Rivers), Aliyu Magatakarda Wamako (Sokoto), Danbaba Suntai (Taraba) and Mahmud Shinkafi (Zamfara).At the moment the AD governors have been Babatunde Raji Fashola (Lagos), Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti), Rauf Aregbesola (Osun) and Adams Aliyu Oshiomhole (Edo). Peter Obi was governor of Anambra (APGA), Isa Yuguda(ANPP)—Bauchi, Ali Modu Sheriff (ANPP)—Bornu, Ibrahim Shekarau (ANPP)—Kano, Ibrahim Gaidam (ANPP)—Yobe, Olusegun Mimiko(Labour Celebration)—Ondo state.
As of at present, there are twenty-two states with APC governors, twelve states with PDP governors, one every with APGA, Labour and NNPP. The APC is but to equal the feat achieved by the PDP in 2008.At current the governors are Alex Otti(Abia State)—Labour Celebration, Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri(Adamawa)—PDP, Umo Eno(Akwa Ibom)—PDP, Charles Soludo (Anambra)—APGA, Bala Muhammed (Bauchi)—PDP, Douye Diri (Bayelsa)—PDP, Hyacinth Alia (Benue)—APC, Babagana Zulum (Borno)—APC, Bassey Otu(Cross River)—APC, Sheriff Oborevwori (Delta)—PDP, Francis Nwifuru (Ebonyi) APC, Monday Okpebholo(Edo), Biodun Oyebanji(Ekiti)—APC, Peter Mbah(Enugu)—PDP, Muhammad Inuwa Yahaya(Gombe)—APC, Hope Uzodinma(Imo)—APC, Umar Namadi (Jigawa)—APC and Uba Sani(Kaduna)—APC.
Others are Abba Kabir Yusuf (Kano)— New Nigeria Peoples Celebration, Dikko Umaru Radda(Katsina)—APC, Nasir Idris(Kebbi)—APC, Ahmed Usman Ododo (Kogi)—APC,AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq(Kwara)—APC, Babajide Sanwo-Olu(Lagos)—APC, Abdullahi Sule(Nasarawa)—APC, Mohammed Umar Bago(Niger)—APC, Dapo Abiodun(Ogun)—APC, Fortunate Aiyedatiwa(Ondo)—APC, Ademola Adeleke(Osun)—PDP, Seyi Makinde(Oyo)—PDP, Caleb Mutfwang(Plateau)—PDP, Siminalayi Fubara(Rivers)—PDP, Ahmad Aliyu(Sokoto)—APC, Agbu Kefas(Taraba)—PDP, Mai Mala Buni(Yobe)—APC, Dauda Lawal(Zamfara)—PDP
The above might change when the gubernatorial election takes place in Anambra on November 6, 2025 this 12 months, whereas that of Ekiti and Osun state will maintain on July 14 and September 22 subsequent 12 months respectively.As of now a lot of the events are in disaster, critical disaster together with APC. The worst hit is the PDP. I hope the PDP won’t go the best way of AD, ACN, ANPP and APP. The dying of All Folks’s Celebration is tragic. It was the second strongest celebration in 1999.
Within the 20 February, 1999 legislature elections, the APP gained 20 out of the 109 Senate seats and 68 of the 360 seats within the Home of Representatives. The presidential election, held on 29 February, 1999, was gained by PDP candidate Olusegun Obasanjo. He obtained 62.78% of the vote in comparison with 37.22% for the Olu Falae/Umaru Shinkafi ticket. The final functioning chief of the celebration was my shut buddy, Senator Mahmoud Waziri. Until he died we disagreed on how he ran the APP. Though he was compensated with place of particular adviser by President Olusegun Obasanjo GCFR. He felt uncomfortable. I cherished his friendship. Nice soul from Yola.The celebration elected 9 governors at the moment. They have been Mala Kachalla(Borno), Abubakar Abu Hasheed (Gombe), Ibrahin Samiru Turaki (Jigawa), Adamu Aliero (Kebbi), Abubakar Audu (Kogi), Muhammed Lawal (Kwara), Attahiru Bafarwa (Sokoto), Buka Abba Ibrahim (Yobe) and Ahmed Sani (Zamfara).Tragically, the APP suffered factional cut up and contested the subsequent spherical of elections in 2003 because the because the All Nigeria Folks’s Celebration (ANPP).The disaster of the PDP now’s just like that of APP. The potential of PDP recapturing the PRESIDENCY which they misplaced nearly ten years in the past is distant. What can emerge is {that a} faction of the PDP and disgruntled components within the APC and different events might type a coalition to problem the Presidential candidate of the APC in 2027. Positively there can be a brand new alliance. That’s the Nigerian means. The APC will not be invincible, simply as PDP was not ten years in the past with its failing insurance policies.Now there’s a rush to enlist within the ruling celebration, the APC. On the second or third 12 months of any Presidential tenure, this can be a frequent prevalence. It’s nothing new, we’re used to it. It occurred in 1981 throughout the tenure of President Usman Aliyu Shehu Shagari GCFR. I keep in mind Alhaji Umaru Abdulrahman Dikko (31 December 1936 – 1 July 2014) from Wamba village close to Zaria, the then Minister of Transport, boasting then that the NPN would rule endlessly. He advised Chief Moshood Kashimawo Abiola GCFR (24 August 1937 – 7 July 1998) that there was no emptiness within the Presidency and that the Presidency was not on the market.The potential of a single celebration construction or a dominant single celebration construction has threatened the democratic construction of this nice nation on occasion. And in some way it by no means turns into doable. The nation survived that menace in 1965, it did in 1983 and likewise in 2008.In 1965, the dominant celebration was Northern Folks’s Congress (NPC). It was previously a cultural group referred to as Jamiyaar Mutanen Arewa. It was a celebration that by no means pretended. It was fashioned on the idea of Northern curiosity because the title explains.Earlier than he was assassinated on January 14, 1966, the chief of the celebration, Sir Ahmadu Bello (12 June 1910- 15 January 1966), the Sardauna of Sokoto, Premier of Northern Nigeria, was essentially the most highly effective politician within the land.In his guide titled “MY LIFE”, the Sardauna of Sokoto, Sir Ahmadu Bello, wrote on web page 85 “The Northern Folks’s Congress grew out of purely cultural society of that title. This had been began in Zaria by Dr. Dikko, who’s now an necessary determine within the Ministry of Well being. After the 1951 elections—-the electoral school ones—Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, who had been a member of the unique Home of Meeting from the beginning and who at all times had a eager political sense, requested me to affix this cultural celebration, later to grow to be our personal political celebration with the identical title. Curiously sufficient, that is how the Motion Group additionally began, for it’s in origin the ‘Motion Group’ of the Egbe Omo Oduduwa, a Yoruba cultural society. They usually began at a lot the identical time.
I agreed to do that and so later turned President of the political Northern Folks’s Congress, with Abubakar as Vice President, and Ibrahim Imam, who since then has had quite a lot of totally different political allegiances, as Secretary Normal. We known as it Northern as a result of we needed to unite the Northern individuals and at the moment we weren’t trying a lot past our personal borders. It had a right away success and a lot of the members of the Northern Home joined it. Since then, it has remained unshaken, although different events have blossomed and light.Our goals have been quite simple. To develop the nation to the fullest extent within the shortest time period; to protect the peace, good order, and pleasant relations between all our totally different peoples; to conduct an environment friendly and neutral administration; to make sure for all, freedom of thought and faith, to do good to all males. You will notice that we have been by no means militant ‘nationalists’ as some have been. We have been positive that in God’s good time we might get the facility. The British had promised this regularly and we have been content material to relaxation on these guarantees; there was loads of work prepared at our palms for us to do”.

Mamiso, Alhaji Ndagi Farouq and Mallam Muhammadu King.
From the above, one might see the path of the celebration. Thankfully, Part 173 of the 1978 electoral decree has made it totally unattainable for a political celebration to symbolize regional curiosity.
There have been a number of makes an attempt to pressure this nation to have a one-party construction or a two-party construction, however the boldest try was made by Normal Ibrahim Babangida GCFR (83).
On January 10, 1986, he established a 17-member political bureau to supervise and co-ordinate the talk on the political way forward for the nation. Three days later, that’s on January 13, 1986, he inaugurated the bureau. The bureau was headed by Professor Sylvanus John Sodienye Cookey, an historian from Opobo in Rivers state. Professor Cookey was born on April 9, 1934. In 1982, he turned the second Vice Chancellor and Chairman of the Governing Council of Obafemi Awolowo College, Ile Ife. He’s the primary President of the Council of Knights of the Niger Delta Dioceses and first President-Normal of the Joint Council of Knights of Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion).
As a Philanthropist, he has endowed knowledgeable Chair in Malaria Research on the College of Port Harcourt whereas the Sylvanus Cookey Basis, established by him, helps to remodel the lives of youths in his house city, Opobo.
In the course of the Civil Battle, he served as Commissioner for Particular Duties in Ojukwu’s Cupboard and was awarded the Biafra Silver Medal (BSM). He has since obtained many honours together with Officer of the Federal Republic (OFR), Honourary Physician of Science (D.Sc) and Physician of Letters (D.Litt) from the College of Port Harcourt and Anambra State College respectively in addition to Chieftaincy titles from Upata Kingdom in Rivers State and Ogbor in Mbaise. He’s a member of the Institute of Docs of Nigeria. He holds the distinctive title of Arusibidabo (Inspirational Chief) in Opobo Kingdom.
Different members of the bureau have been E. O. Awa, A.D. Yahaya, Haroun Adamu, Ibrahim Halilu, Pascal Bafyau, Oye Oyediran, Tunde Adeniran, Sam E. Oyovbaire, Bala Takaya, O.E. Uya, Sani Zaharadden, Mrs Hilda Aderarasin, Mrs R. Abdullahi, Ola Balogun, Edwin Madunagu and Abdullahi Augie (Govt Secretary).On June 27, 1986, totally different classes of politicians have been banned from taking part in politics till after the transition programme.
On March 26, 1987, the Political Bureau submitted its report. It really helpful that any Nigerian who hadn’t been beforehand convicted of a felony offence be allowed to take part in politics within the Nineteen Nineties in addition to the gradual alternative of the navy administration by civilians.
On July 11, 1987, the White Paper on the Political Bureau report was launched. A brand new date of 1992 was given for the military’s handover. Different objects within the White Paper included the retention of Presidentialism and the rejection of any faith as state faith.
On September 1, 1987, a 46-member assessment panel was named to assessment the 1979 structure. It was headed by Justice Mohammed Buba Ardo.
On September 4, 1987, native authorities election time-table was launched. It was scheduled for 12 December. Registration was to carry between 12 October and 1 November.
On April 22, 1988, elections have been held into the Constituent Meeting whereas on April 25, 1988, authorities’s nominees to the Meeting (117 of them) have been introduced. To go the Meeting was Justice Anthony Aniagolu. The Meeting was saddled with the job of fashioning a brand new Structure for the nation.
On April 1, 1989, the Constituent Meeting concluded sitting in Abuja whereas Normal Ibrahim Babangida obtained the draft on April 5, 1989. On Could 3, 1989, Normal Babangida lifted ban on political actions whereas the Nationwide Electoral Fee headed by Professor Eme Awa (15 December, 1921- 11 March 2000) really helpful six political associations to the Armed Forces Ruling Council (AFRC) for registration on September 26, 1989. The political associations have been the Folks’s Solidarity Celebration, Nigerian Nationwide Congress, Peoples’ Entrance of Nigeria, Liberal Conference, Nigerian Labour Celebration and the Republican Celebration.
On October 7, 1989, Normal Babangida in a broadcast to the nation dissolved the political events claiming that that they had been hijacked by some people as their private property. He then created two political events by decree—the Social Democratic Celebration and the Nationwide Republican Conference. He additionally created the Centre for Democratic Research.
In creating the 2 events, Normal Babangida declared “by this choice, the AFRC has declared its acceptance of the ideas of a grassroots democratic two-party system. It’s our perception that the system shall: present a grassroots foundation for the emergence of political events, set up a grassroots or mass platforms for the emergence of latest management, give equal rights and alternatives to all Nigerians to take part within the political course of regardless of their wealth, faith, geo-political backgrounds {and professional} endeavours, de-emphasise the function of cash in politics and scale back to a minimal degree, the component of violence in our electoral course of.
“Preclude the emergence of political alliances alongside the identical traces as within the First Republics and due to this fact, give Nigerians a brand new political construction inside which to function, make sure the emergence of a brand new, extra devoted and extra real management cadre, which won’t be a mere proxy for outdated political warlords, chart a brand new patter of political recruitment and participation which is able to improve Nigeria’s stability, set up sturdy tutorial constructions which not maintain future governments, but in addition be sturdy sufficient to face the check of time and set up a political system that can be operated based on the spirit and letter of the Structure of the Federal Republic”.
Between July 21 and 25, 1990, the Nationwide Republican Conference held its conference in Port Harcourt, Chief Tom Ikimi was elected because the Chairman. At its personal conference in Abuja, the SDP elected Ambassador Baba-Gana Kingibe because the chairman. On December 2, 1991, Normal Babangida arrested and detained eleven banned politicians. They have been Abubakar Rimi, Maitama Yusuff, Lateef Jakande and Lamidi Adedibu. Others have been C.C. Onoh, Chief Bola Ige, Chief Arthur Nzeribe, Dr. Olusola Saraki, Mr. Solomon Lar, and Main Normal (rtd.) Musa Shehu Yar’adua.
On September 23, 1992, ten Presidential aspirants of the SDP, withdrew from the competition scheduled for Saturday, September 26, 1992, claiming that the celebration was bent on imposing Main Normal (rtd.) Musa Shehu Yar’adua on the celebration. The aspirants have been Chief Olu Falae, Olabiyi Durojaiye, Arthur Nzeribe, Alhaji Datti Ahmed, Mahmud Waziri, Lateef Jakande, Drs Olusola Saraki, Patrick Dele Cole, Layi Balogun, and Professor Jerry Gana.
A couple of weeks later, the identical Normal Babangida banned 21 Presidential aspirants, leaving solely Chief M.Okay.O. Abiola of the SDP and Alhaji Bashir Tofa of the NRC to contest the June 12, 1993 Presidential election. The election was annulled later by Normal Babandiga whereas Normal Sani Abacha GCFR (20 September 1943 – 8 June 1998) sacked the elected governors, the Interim Authorities of Chief Ernest Adegunle Oladeinde Shonekan GCFR (9 Could 1936 – 11 January 2022) and likewise the 2 political events.
Becoming a member of the ruling celebration is just a partial answer to the nation’s issues. Other than private consideration, there should be sufficient justification for becoming a member of the ruling celebration when it comes to efficiency. To me, the vacation spot should be good governance which we’re nonetheless anticipating from the APC as a result of, we in unhealthy form in the intervening time.
