It requires African entrepreneurs and investors to commit their capital, expertise and enterprise to building productive economies that create jobs, generate wealth and improve lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>This conviction lies at the heart of Africapitalism, the economic philosophy championed by the Chairman of Heirs Holdings and founder of the Tony Elumelu Foundation (TEF). It is also central to the renewed push for regional integration and industrialisation in West Africa, where political leaders and private-sector players are seeking to convert the region’s vast resources and consumer market into sustainable economic opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Elumelu brought this perspective to the fore in Lagos this week, at a media roundtable involving Sierra Leone’s President Julius Maada Bio and Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, ahead of the West Africa Investment and Industrialisation Summit (WAIIS), scheduled to hold in Freetown from November 16 to 18, 2026.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The engagement focused on mobilising private capital, developing investment-ready projects and strengthening cooperation between governments and businesses across West Africa. With an investment pipeline estimated at more than $180 billion across four strategic pillars, the summit is intended to move regional integration beyond political declarations towards bankable projects and measurable economic outcomes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>For Elumelu, however, the significance of the initiative extends beyond a summit or a collection of investment pledges. It reflects a broader argument he has consistently advanced: Africa must take greater responsibility for its own development by investing in the sectors that underpin productivity, expanding opportunities for entrepreneurs and building markets large enough to support competitive businesses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“We are happy that our political leaders are beginning to bring all of us together so that we can make a much greater impact,” he said, speaking on behalf of the African and West African private sector.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He linked the initiative to the urgent need to create employment for young people and ensure that economic growth translates into opportunities for people across the region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“This is consistent with our aspirations to create jobs for our young people and ensure that everyone within the region has an opportunity to prosper,” he added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>His message captures the central premise of Africapitalism: private capital should generate commercial returns while contributing to Africa’s economic and social development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Elumelu describes Africapitalism as the belief that “the African private sector must take the lead in driving economic development”, through long-term investments in key sectors that generate both economic returns and social impact. The philosophy challenges businesses to look beyond short-term gains and consider how investment can help address structural problems such as inadequate power supply, weak infrastructure, unemployment and limited access to economic opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>From Regional Declarations to Investment\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The timing of the Freetown summit is significant. The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), established in 1975, has spent five decades pursuing regional cooperation, free movement, trade and economic integration. Yet the region continues to face barriers that constrain cross-border commerce, industrial development and the movement of capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>President Bio acknowledged this gap at the Lagos engagement, observing that West Africa had discussed integration for about 50 years without doing enough to create a consolidated market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“West Africa has been talking about economic integration for about 50 years, but we have not done enough to integrate our economies and create a consolidated market,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He argued that governments and businesses must work towards a common market serving more than 400 million people, mobilising investors within and outside the region to take advantage of its opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>That proposition aligns with Elumelu’s longstanding call for Africa to break down barriers between markets, improve infrastructure and expand intra-African trade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The founder of Heirs Holdings argues that regional integration would remain incomplete without the capacity to produce goods that neighbouring countries need.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“If you trade and you don’t produce what your neighbour needs, your neighbour will go outside and look for who can produce it,” he had said, stressing the need for African economies to develop stronger productive capacity and larger markets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The implication is that integration cannot be sustained by agreements alone. It must be supported by businesses capable of manufacturing goods, processing agricultural produce, supplying energy, providing digital services and moving products across borders at competitive costs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>For West Africa, the opportunities are substantial, but so are the challenges. Energy shortages raise production costs; inadequate transport networks impede the movement of goods; and fragmented markets limit the scale available to manufacturers and other businesses. Differences in regulations and border procedures can also make regional expansion more complicated than it should be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>WAIIS seeks to address these constraints by bringing governments, investors, development finance institutions, business leaders and project owners together around projects that can attract public and private financing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The summit’s four strategic pillars are energy trade and industrial growth; strategic minerals and natural resource development; agribusiness and food systems transformation; and digital transformation and connectivity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>These priorities reflect the interconnected nature of economic development. Reliable electricity supports manufacturing and digital services. Efficient transport and logistics connect farmers to processors and consumers. Access to finance enables entrepreneurs to expand production, while digital infrastructure makes it easier for businesses to reach customers and operate across borders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong> Africapitalism as a Development Model\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Africapitalism emerged from Elumelu’s conviction that Africans must play a leading role in financing and building the continent’s future. Rather than treating the private sector merely as a source of tax revenue or a beneficiary of government policies, the philosophy positions businesses as active participants in solving economic and social problems. It also rejects the idea that profitability and social impact must be mutually exclusive. Investments in electricity, financial services, healthcare, agriculture and infrastructure can generate commercial returns while addressing constraints that hold back businesses and communities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Elumelu had explained that Africapitalism calls on private-sector leaders to invest in critical sectors rather than concentrate on trading activities alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He cited power, electricity and railways as areas where long-term private investment could generate prosperity for investors while creating broader economic benefits. He described the approach as a “win-win for everyone”, arguing that investments should help catalyse development while remaining commercially sustainable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>This perspective is particularly relevant to West Africa’s industrialisation ambitions. The region cannot achieve sustained economic transformation if its businesses remain constrained by unreliable electricity, expensive logistics, limited access to finance and insufficient industrial capacity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The challenge, therefore, is to direct capital towards productive activities that create value locally, develop supply chains and expand employment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>A defining feature of Elumelu’s philosophy is its emphasis on entrepreneurship, particularly among young Africans. He argues that the continent’s demographic advantage will only become an economic dividend if young people can access the resources and opportunities required to build businesses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Through the Tony Elumelu Foundation, he has supported entrepreneurs with seed capital, training and mentorship. The foundation’s work reflects the belief that small businesses can contribute to job creation, innovation and economic diversification when they receive appropriate support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>For West Africa, this approach offers an important complement to large-scale infrastructure investment. Major projects can create the foundations for growth, but local enterprises are essential for translating that investment into jobs, services and economic activity within communities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>This is why Elumelu’s emphasis on entrepreneurship is closely linked to the summit’s wider objectives. An integrated market would provide businesses with a larger customer base, while investment in infrastructure and productive sectors would improve their ability to compete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Africapitalism does not suggest that governments should withdraw from economic development. Rather, it calls for a more effective partnership in which governments provide the enabling environment and private investors contribute capital, expertise and commercial discipline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>At the Lagos roundtable, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu emphasised the need for African economies to produce goods and services that their own populations consume.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“Africa needs to build what Africans will use and what Africans will consume,” he said, arguing that Lagos and other West African economies must work together to create a larger market and establish platforms that connect businesses across the region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He identified technology, agriculture and other productive sectors as areas where cooperation could unlock opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>For the private sector, however, the success of such ambitions will depend on whether governments can reduce investment risks, provide predictable policies, improve infrastructure and facilitate cross-border commerce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Investors also need clarity on project ownership, financing arrangements, regulatory responsibilities and expected returns. Regional initiatives must demonstrate that announced opportunities can progress through feasibility studies, financial closure, construction and eventual operation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>This is particularly important for WAIIS, whose proposed investment pipeline exceeds $180 billion. The scale of the ambition makes implementation and accountability essential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n","elumelu-and-the-push-for-west-africas-integration",{"id":44,"createdAt":45,"updatedAt":46,"name":47,"slug":48},[61,62,63,64,65],"elumelu","push","west","africas","integration","https:\u002F\u002Fglobal.ariseplay.com\u002Famg\u002Fwww.thisdaylive.com\u002Fuploads\u002FElumelu.jpeg",null,{"id":69,"createdAt":70,"updatedAt":71,"name":72,"image":73,"slug":74},"676b27a5-8a43-458d-91ba-45c07367106b","2026-03-26T09:35:16.600Z","2026-08-13T13:04:20.834Z","This

It’s redirecting the country.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. “We are cliffhanging right now, and our arms are getting weary. The cliff, the edge of the cliff, is eroding.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. “The reason for having a government in place is to ensure the optimal productivity of its citizens within a safe and orderly environment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. “I don’t want to be an onlooker. I want to be in the field of play. In the field of play, I could perhaps determine the play.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. “We are a people with a loveless leadership. Love is sacrificial. The opposite is selfishness.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. “You can’t give what you don’t have. If you don’t like your people enough to go back and think of solutions to their problems, you can’t lead them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7. “The biggest impediment to growth in this country is inflation, but selling petrol at ₦1,200 is the single most inflationary item in the books.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">QUOTES FROM PROF. PAT UTOMI (Senior Peter Obi ally)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1. “What we call subsidy is, first and foremost, corruption writ large. Because if you go back to the history of how petrol got distributed in Nigeria, my father worked for British Petroleum and the refineries were working.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. “If your desire is to lower prices for people, you come in, you go to the heart of the matter, kill the corruption, create a market that anybody who wants to sell petrol can do whatever, and then competition will bring down the price.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. “The focus must be on how to make that bottom of the pyramid productive. And if you can make the bottom of the pyramid productive, then you are doing something that will have a much more sustainable impact on the lives of the people.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. “You are as rich as your people are poor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. “My view of the Nigerian state today is that it’s a criminal enterprise.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. “The simple laws of economics: if you play around, you will eventually get the result you want. Economics is a science of incentives. If you create an incentive for people to smuggle, people will smuggle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7. “The subsidy is useful when it is stimulating production. When you subsidize consumption, you are basically making people dependent.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">8. “If you want to help the poor, don’t subsidize petrol for everybody. Put the money into mass transportation, make transportation affordable, make food available and affordable, and target the things that actually affect the lives of the poor.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">QUOTES FROM KENNETH OKONKWO (spokesman for AlhajiAtikuAbubakar)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1. “When Atiku gets to power, there will be immediate, immediate intervention, immediately, in the way of supplying crude at a discounted rate. Then there will be security provided, energy provided and then the value of Naira increasing every day.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. “So Atiku is saying, subsidize production so that if the refineries produce at a cheap rate, Nigerians will have it at an affordable rate. So this is basically what Atiku’s plan is all about for now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. “What was the solution that would have benefited the poor masses? Repair the refineries. You have them. If you can’t repair them, privatize them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. “Atiku is going to restore subsidy with the same speed by which it was removed. So, if you read literature, it is just like saying, if this thing was done in such a terribly bad way, a good man can restore it in such a terribly good way without any waste of time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. “What will it take a president to make an order immediately that crude should be supplied immediately to Dangote? What will it take? Because the devil is in details. If you are importing oil, it is a different thing. If your refinery is not working, it is a different thing. You have your oil; you have your refinery.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. “Crude is our product. And the local refineries will not be paying for the cost of shipping, which they will pay bringing in crude, which they will pay exporting the finished product. You take it from the soil, you put it to the refinery, you sell it back to the people.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">*Quotes from Oseloka Henry Obaze (politician, author and staunch Peter Obi ally)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1. “I am someone who believes that God has blessed Nigeria. We have an abundance of human resources, natural resources, but we have wasted them all because we have poor leadership.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. “The day we start defending people based on ethnicity, then we can kiss our democracy goodbye because at the end of the day, we are going to be fractured, we are going to be splintered.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. “In my 70-odd years of life, I think the present administration is just about the worst that I’ve seen. You cannot live beyond your means. We can’t expect a revenue of N25 trillion and we’re doing a budget of N50 trillion. It does not make sense.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. “Every voter is an agent and What you owe to the opposition, to Peter Obi and Kwankwaso, is to go back to your ward and deliver your polling unit and your ward and defend those votes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. “I think Tinubu’s governance modality has gone off-kilter. His administration is so undisciplined. The government has no compassion. They have no moral compass.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. “If you really have a strategy and you put it in the open, it’s no longer a strategy because the other people that you’re trying to use it against… will know what you’re planning to do.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7. “You are elected to solve problems. If the problem of the country is hunger, you solve it. If the problem of the country is transportation, you solve it. If the problem of the country is food insecurity, you solve it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">8. “Our four refineries are not working. In the entire Nigeria, the only refinery that is working is Dangote’s Refinery. If we cannot run four major refineries, what we need to do is to give licences to 100 people to run modular refineries. You don’t have to import fuel. It’s as simple as that.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 id=\"h-donu-s-world\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>DONU’S WORLD\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have a YouTube channel.

With the 2027 general","\u003Cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" >\u003C\u002Fdiv>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cem>\u003Cstrong>Laleye Dipo\u003C\u002Fstrong> writes on the gathering political storm against Governor Mohammed Bago and the ruling All Progressives Congress, a development that has made the party jittery.\u003C\u002Fem>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>With the 2027 general elections around the corner, the political atmosphere in Niger state too has started gathering momentum with defeated aspirants of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and some former cabinet members of Governor Mohammed Umaru Bago defecting to the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and the African Democratic Congress (ADC).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Also, some members of the party who did not secure tickets to return to the house of assembly for another term as legislators in 2027 are reportedly grouping preparatory to their jumping ship and teaming up with opposition parties. The legislators have already formed a group known as the Group of 15.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>As a result, the once styled one party state has changed appellation with the creation of two major opposition political parties active for now. The plan of the defectors is to unseat Governor Bago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>According to investigations, majority of these politicians are from the Niger South Senatorial zone ( Zone A), a district that controls a large chunk of votes and from where Governor Bago contested and won the governorship of the state in 2023 after representing Zone B (Niger East) for three terms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Investigations, however, revealed that the opposition to the realization of the second term dream of Governor Bago is secretly being backed by political heavy weights from within and outside the state with some of them even very prominent in the ruling APC.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The grouse of all these politicians, it was learnt, was their allegedly being shortchanged by the APC during the conduct of the party primary election.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>One of the aggrieved politicians and former Senator Mohammed Bima said “no primary election was held in the state last May” as claimed by the party adding that Governor Bago “unilaterally handpicked the candidates of the APC for the 2027 elections”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>His position was corroborated by the incumbent Senator representing Niger South senatorial zone in the National Assembly who incidentally defeated Bima in the 2023 race, Mr Peter Nda Alikali.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Alikali, erstwhile member of the PDP on which platform he won election defected to the APC, one, to get the ticket of his new party and secondly to win a return ticket to the Senate. His ambition has however fallen flat as he lost the APC ticket to son of the former Chief Justice of Nigeria, Mr Mohammed Sani Kutigi. Alikali seems to have also lost out in the new arrangement because the senatorial ticket of his new group has now been given to Alhaji Ndarani.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The new group at a well attended gathering held recently at the State PDP Secretariat endorsed a former boss of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), Alhaji Mohammed Mamman Nami as it’s governorship candidate after the man who won the ticket earlier, Abubakar Sulaiman stepped down for him. The PDP confirmed the replacement of Abubakar by Nami.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>In a statement, the party said “ The People’s Democratic Party, Niger State Chapter has affirmed the nomination of the former chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service, Alhaji Mohammed Mamman Nami as it’s candidate for the 2027 Niger state governorship election.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“The affirmation followed a meeting of the state executive committee, outgoing Governorship candidate, Abubakar Sulaiman Nyannamuwo and local government party Chairmen, convened to formally affirm the party’s candidates for the forthcoming general elections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Sulaiman also personally confirmed stepping down for Mani stating that his decision was taken in the “interest of the party, it’s unity and the overall progress of Niger state”.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Namis name did not appear on the INEC portal when the names of governorship candidates for various political parties in the state were unveiled recently. The name of Sulaiman Abubakar remained on the portal as the PDP standard-bearer\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Despite this, Nami is now the talk of the town and the major issue in the political calculation of the state as far as the governorship contest in 2027 is concerned. He is seen as the man that can wrestle political power from the Farmer Governor as the APC candidate is called.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The Nami group is rumoured to belong to the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike’s Rainbow Coalition\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The ADC group is also fighting Bago and the APC from another front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The party has a former Director in the Federal Ministry of Works, Alhaji Kpautagi as it’s candidate. Kpautagi like Nami and Bago are from the Niger South senatorial zone though has the backing of some political bigwigs in the state from the Niger East senatorial zone and the Niger North Senatorial district.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Kpautagi has already picked a former Commissioner in the administration of Governor Bago, Alhaji Mamman Musa as his running mate a decision that has not gone down well with a group within the ADC. The group opposing Musa prefers a Muslim\u002F Christian ticket unlike the present Muslim \u002FMuslim ticket arrangement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>This may be an albatross for the ADC and an advantage for Governor Bago because  Musa is from the Niger East senatorial zone which boasts of a huge christian population even though Bago himself and the APC parade a similar arrangement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>One interesting aspect of the entire scenario is that 15 “defeated” House of Assembly members including the House Deputy Speaker, Hon Afinniki Dauda have joined the battle against Governor Bago though the House leadership has quickly denied any plan by the members to defect to the PDP or ADC.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Speaker Sarkindaji said the entire membership of the house are APC and fully supports the presidential aspiration of President Bola Tinubu and second term bid of Governor Bago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Spokesman of the APC in the state, Musa Sarkinkaji, dismissed claims that the party is jittery as a result of the realignments of former members of the party to the PDP and the ADC. According to him: “People are allowed to move from one party to another, it is their fundamental human right which nobody can take away from them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He, however, maintained that the APC remains solid and is poised to win the 2027 election at all levels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n","2027-gathering-political-storm-to-unseat-bago-in-niger",{"id":421,"createdAt":422,"updatedAt":423,"name":424,"slug":425},[1940,1941,1942,1943,1944,1945,425],"2027","gathering","political","storm","unseat","bago","https:\u002F\u002Fglobal.ariseplay.com\u002Famg\u002Fwww.thisdaylive.com\u002Fuploads\u002FMohammed-Umaru-Bago.jpg",{"id":69,"createdAt":70,"updatedAt":71,"name":72,"image":73,"slug":74},16,6,"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.thisdaylive.com\u002F2026\u002F10\u002F09\u002F2027-gathering-political-storm-to-unseat-bago-in-niger\u002F",{"status_code":4,"message":67,"data":1952},[1953,1954,1955,1956,1957,1958,1959,1960,1961,1962,1963,1964,1965,1966,1967,1968,1969,1970,1971,1972],"No, not now!
