Late Coalition Of Blessed Memory: INEC’s Latest Recognition Of Party Leadership Puts Atiku, Obi In The Cold

Late Coalition Of Blessed Memory: INEC’s Latest Recognition Of Party Leadership Puts Atiku, Obi In The Cold....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

In a land where we celebrate the dead with dancing, jollof rice, and a 20-man live band, it is only befitting that we gather today — not in protest, but in procession — to lay to rest what was once the coalition of opposition dreams. Yes, brothers and sisters, we are not here to shed tears of sorrow. Rather, we are here to  pour last libations for the political formation that tried, failed, and is now officially gone to meet its ancestors, courtesy of INEC’s latest gazette.

Despite all the political grammar from Atiku’s camp and Peter Obi’s cyber battalion, the reality is now staring everyone in the face like a public notice pasted at a mortuary gate. INEC has updated the list of party executives and guess what? The names of the real owners of the opposition microphones are nowhere to be found!

Let’s summarize the sad but hilarious situation:

APC is alive, well-fed, and has just been upgraded to “Next of Kin” in Nigeria’s political will. Prof. Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda now sits boldly as National Chairman, while Surajudeen Ajibola Basiru PhD signs in with his famous red pen as National Secretary. INEC didn’t blink. This is what structure looks like.

PDP, on the other hand, is still rocking with Amb. Damagun as “Acting National Chairman” — emphasis on “acting,” because it looks like the real script is still missing.

ADC? Na dem! INEC has recognised Chief Ralph Okey Nwosu as the National Chairman — which means Atiku’s Davido-styled remix of ADC with David Mark is already off-key. The man no even make background vocals.

Labour Party? Yes, but only the Abure faction got INEC’s nod. Obi’s camp? Nowhere in sight. Online he’s trending, but offline it’s “access denied.”

This isn’t just a political update — it’s a cultural funeral. You can’t claim to be the main opposition when even INEC can’t find your name on the guest list of relevance. That’s not a party, that’s a ghost town.

In summary, what we are witnessing is not just internal party confusion — it’s a full-blown burial of credibility.

INEC’s action may not have said it in words, but in deeds, it has issued a death certificate — no need for autopsy. All that remains now is to pick a date for the candlelight procession.

And what’s more tragic than a divided house? A house with three parlours and no landlord! The PDP is bickering in one corner, ADC is doing “I sabi book” in another, and LP is still waiting for online polls to translate into INEC forms. Meanwhile, Jagaban FC is training daily at Eagle Square, scoring reforms, building highways, unifying exchange rates, and preparing for second half 2027.

So today, we say goodbye to the opposition as we knew it. Not with anger. Not with regret. But with one last oriki:

They tried. They tweeted. They trended. But alas, they scattered.

ADIEU, Oh Late Coalition!
May your dreams find rest,
May your manifestos be remembered,
And may your WhatsApp groups find peace.
