Political twist: Pastef’s surprise request for the Mazars and IGF reports

The Pastef-Les Patriotes parliamentary group is demanding the release of the IGF report on public finances from 2019 to 2024 and a 2025 report by Forvis Mazars.

Abia State Governor Alex Otti said at the 90th birthday celebration of Emeritus Professor Benson Oluikpe in Umuahia that his administration is replacing the celebration of thieves, fraudsters and drug barons with recognition of people of integrity and achievement. He argued that outstanding people should be honoured while alive and cited five Abia schoolchildren who won an international competition in Qatar. Otti recalled that in 1989 his father asked him to account for the 100 naira he had sent home, and urged parents to hold their children accountable. Oluikpe thanked the governor and praised his humility, which he said he had observed since they first met in 2013.

Oladipupo Adebutu, the PDP’s governorship candidate in Ogun State, called his omission from INEC’s list of candidates a temporary distraction and said it would not derail his 2027 bid. He spoke on Monday in Abeokuta while welcoming more than 1,000 APC defectors led by former House of Representatives member Segun William, alongside PDP leaders including Iyabo Obasanjo. Adebutu claimed 20 years of loyalty to the PDP and said its recent membership registration recorded more than 19,800 members, with his registration number listed as 1536. He also said the party’s mobilisation team had visited 12 of Ogun’s 20 local government areas and more than 140 of its 236 wards.
