The Obidient Peoples Party and the Advanced Democratic Alliance (ADA) are part of 110 groups that have submitted applications to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to be registered as political parties.

The Obidient Peoples Party, led by Mr. Barry Avotu Johnson as “protem national chairman”, is one of two applications referencing the “Obidient movement”, a political trend linked to former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

The other application bears the name “Progressive Obedients Party”.

ADA is being positioned as the political platform for the anti-Tinubu coalition, which includes former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, former Rivers State governor Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, former Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai, Dr. Umar Ardo—convener of the League of Northern Democrats—and several others.

INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, revealed the list of applicants on Wednesday during the commission’s second quarterly consultative meeting with media executives in Abuja. He confirmed that all applications are being reviewed in line with legal requirements and assured that none of the groups will receive “preferential treatment”.

Stop Giving Money To Miscreants, Lagos Tells Celebrities, Influencers — Says It Fuels Insecurity, Environmental Problems

The Lagos State Government has cautioned celebrities, social media influencers, and residents against giving money to street miscreants, warning that such actions worsen insecurity and environmental issues.

Tokunbo Wahab, the commissioner for environment and water resources, issued the warning in a statement posted on X on Tuesday.

“Celebrities, influencers, and even well-meaning Lagosians must stop giving money to these miscreants. Each time you hand them cash, you are not solving their problem; you are encouraging them to stay on the streets, emboldening them to multiply, and reinforcing a cycle of lawlessness,” Wahab wrote.

He added that what many regard as an act of kindness complicates enforcement and creates broader security challenges.

His remarks followed a complaint by a resident, Olukayode Ajenifuja, who reported harassment along the Lekki-Epe Expressway. Ajenifuja urged the state to deploy the Lagos State Neighborhood Watch to curb extortion, assault, and intimidation by homeless boys and teenagers in the area.

The warning also came after a viral video showed touts and luxury car content creators chasing a convoy believed to be carrying Afrobeats star Burna Boy, attempting to solicit money while recording content. The singer’s security team prevented them from reaching his car.

Wahab said the state government is committed to tackling the menace but urged residents to support the efforts by refusing to encourage the miscreants.

Leave Before Visa Expires Or We’ll Remove You — UK Warns Foreign Students

The United Kingdom has warned international students whose visas have expired to leave the country or risk deportation.

The Home Office, in a new enforcement campaign, said it has begun sending direct text and email messages to students, marking the first time such a measure is being applied.

According to the BBC, about 10,000 students whose visas are due to expire have already received the messages, while tens of thousands more will be contacted in the coming months.

The message from the Home Office reads: “If you have no legal right to remain in the UK, you must leave. If you don’t, we will remove you.”

The agency also warned that asylum claims considered “lacking merit” would be swiftly rejected.

Data released by the Home Office showed that between July 2024 and June 2025, a total of 41,100 asylum claims were lodged by people who had entered the UK legally on visas, with students making up the largest share.

Figures indicated that international students filed 16,000 asylum claims in 2024, almost six times the number recorded in 2020. Although the number has since dropped by about 10 percent, the British government said it expects a further reduction.

The department noted that asylum claims by skilled worker visa holders have decreased within the same period.

Earlier this year, the UK government reduced the period foreign graduates can remain in the country after completing their studies, cutting it from two years to 18 months.
