Senator Sharafadeen Alli, the APC’s gubernatorial candidate in Oyo State, said his party had been out of government for too long and was working to reclaim the state in 2027.

It Is Delusional to Place All Hopes on Government: Citizens Must Also Help Themselves Amid Hardship, Says Obi Achebe

Obi Alfred Nnaemeka Achebe, traditional ruler of the Onitsha Kingdom, said at the Ofala Festival on Friday at Ezechima Square that it was delusional to place all hopes in the government.
