October 31st 2022- Weighing the Effectiveness of Political Rallies and Ortom gives Atiku a headache

Political Rallies are a staple of the political process. They help the candidates and their parties to engage with their bases and also offer an indicator of public support. Based on recent changes to the political calendar, we weigh up the effectiveness of political rallies in the current election cycle. Benue state Governor, Samuel Ortom and former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar have been caught in a public spat which once again highlights the failures of the PDP to get its house in order.

Interview: Aedan Asika

Aedan Asika bears a last name which means people have predetermined expectations of him. However, his familial heritage in Politics and Entertainment didn’t mean much as he embarked on a journey of self-discovery in his late teens. Fresh out of secondary school, he developed an interest in Politics and found himself interning in the office of then-Senator Bukola Saraki. At the time, Saraki, the scion of an iconic political dynasty had just come to the end of a two-term run as the Governor of Kwara state located in the bellwether North Central geopolitical zone. He’d also built a layer of influence as the Chair of the Governors Forum (the collective body of Nigerian Governors). Upon his entry into the Senate, Saraki would play an active role in the formation of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the selection process of the party’s presidential and vice presidential candidates. He also emerged as the Senate President in the new political dispensation. His leadership of the Senate resulted in the enactment of a record number of laws and the passage of landmark bills like the Electoral Amendment Bill, Petroleum Industry Governance Bill, Not-Too-Young-To-Run Bill, and the Police Reform Bill. Since losing out in the 2019 elections, Saraki has sought the presidency and has been tasked with leading the reunification of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). Through it all, Asika has been an interesting observer and participant whose recollection of these moments offers an interesting political history class. He also makes a great pitch as to why young people should take the leap into political waters. This interview is part of a still-taking-shape series where I speak to participants within the political process to document their journeys and glean insights that help us demystify the political process. If you enjoy it, do let us know other people whose stories you'll love to hear.

November 7th 2022- It's Debate Season and Tinubu chills with the big boys

Last night, some of the leading presidential candidates took to the great political marketplace for their ideas- the debate stage. While the APC's Bola Tinubu opted to party, the PDP's Atiku Abubakar was represented by his running mate, Ifeanyi Okowa. Peter Obi, Rabiu Kwankwaso and Kola Abiola also took to the stage. We explore the significance of this debate and the absence of some of the leading candidates. Bola Tinubu chilled with the big boys by organising an outreach session with Nigeria's business elite while Peter Obi's manifesto made it to the public but was quickly walked back.
