  Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume, representing Southern Borno, has issued a stern rebuke to Mr. Daniel Bwala, a former aide to Atiku Abubakar and critic of the All Progressives Congress (APC). Ndume labeled Bwala as a "mad dog," asserting that he poses a political liability to President Tinubu. The tension between the two escalated when Bwala accused Ndume of plotting to incite youth violence against him in Hawul, a claim Ndume vehemently denied. He suggested that Bwala's allegations were a ploy to garner sympathy and attention from President Tinubu. Expressing his disdain, Ndume questioned Bwala's authenticity as an indigene of Hawul, criticizing his use of social media for personal attacks.

  In a contentious move, the People's Democratic Party (PDP) is proceeding with ward congresses across various wards in Rivers State despite clear court injunctions to halt these activities. At the PDP Secretariat located on Aba Road, party members were seen collecting materials necessary for the congresses, signaling their intent to proceed despite legal restrictions. In a significant development, the PDP's National Working Committee has taken decisive action against the Rivers State PDP Caretaker Committee (CTC).
