2027: InterSociety threatens int’l sanctions against Soludo, Alia, four other govs

The International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law (InterSociety) has threatened international sanctions, including travel restrictions to Europe and the Americas, against six Nigerian governors. The governors targeted are Anambra's Charles Soludo, Benue's Hyacinth Alia, Edo's Monday Okpebholo, Ebonyi's Francis Nwifuru, Enugu's Peter Mbah, and Imo's Hope Uzodimma.

InterSociety alleges that these governors and their allies have been involved in promoting political intolerance, undermining opposition activities, and abusing state power ahead of the 2027 elections. The organization claims that these governors have been involved in political exclusion, intimidation, and abuse of power, with a particular focus on the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) and its presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
