BREAKING:

The legal battle over the APC ticket for the Takum, Donga, Ussa and Yangtu Federal Constituency has begun.

Hon. Audu Israel Tseaga has dragged the Independent National Electoral Commission, the All Progressives Congress and Rt. Hon. Mark Bako Useni before the Federal High Court in Abuja over the outcome of the APC primary election held in May 2026.

The suit, marked FHC/ABJ/CS/1128/2026 is before Hon. Justice I. E. Ekwo.

The court granted leave for the originating processes to be served on Rt. Hon. Mark Bako Useni and adjourned the matter to 29 June 2026 for the hearing of the Motion on Notice.

Hon. Audu Israel Tseaga is challenging the outcome of the primary election, insisting he is entitled to the party’s ticket.

The political battle has now moved from the ballot to the courtroom.

Who actually won the primary election?

Danji SS Media Team Raises Legal and Fiscal Concerns Over Gov. Kefas’ $268.63 Million EBID Loan, Demands Full Disclosure and Compliance with the Law

The Danji SS Media Team has expressed grave concern over Governor Agbu Kefas’ newly announced $268.63 million loan facility from the ECOWAS Bank for Investment and Development (EBID), signed in Lomé, Togo.

At the prevailing exchange rate of ₦1,379.75 to $1, the facility amounts to approximately ₦370.5 billion, making it the largest single borrowing in Taraba State’s history. Such a long-term financial obligation demands strict compliance with the law, complete transparency, and public accountability because its repayment will extend far beyond the tenure of the current administration.

Our concern is not with borrowing itself. Governments may borrow for productive investments where there is demonstrable value for money. Our concern is whether this borrowing complies with Nigeria’s fiscal laws, follows due process, and genuinely serves the interests of the people of Taraba State.

1. The Law Governing External Borrowing

External borrowing by states is governed by clear statutory safeguards designed to protect public finances.

Section 21(1) of the Debt Management Office (Establishment) Act, 2003 provides that:

“No external loan shall be approved or obtained by the Minister unless its terms and conditions shall have been laid before the National Assembly and approved by its resolution.”

Furthermore, Section 47(3) of the Fiscal Responsibility Act, 2007 provides that:

“In the case of foreign currency borrowing, Federal Government guarantee shall be a requirement and no State, Local Government or Federal Agency shall, on its own, borrow externally.”

Also Section 21(2) states that "The Federal, State or any of their agencies shall not obtain external loan except with a guarantee issued by the Minister".

These provisions underscore that external borrowing is not merel

Yesterday, Senator Natasha H. Akpoti-Uduaghan was presented with her Certificate of Return as the PDP flag bearer for Kogi Central Senatorial District.

To those who still believe in the Turaki-led faction, here's a question:

Do you think a serving senator of Senator Natasha's stature, experience, and political capacity would not fully understand the implications of obtaining her nomination form through the Wike-led faction?

Food for thought.
