Obi, Tinubu, afrobasket, insecurity top DDM TV show

DDM News

 DDM TV Morning Show is set to heat up the national conversation on Tuesday, August 5, 2025, as it tackles three of the most controversial and celebratory stories gripping Nigeria at the moment.

Diaspora Digital Media (DDM) gathered that the show, which airs live every Monday to Friday at 9:00 AM Nigeria time, has quickly become one of the most respected online platforms for real-time political dialogue, breaking news, and people-powered engagement.

According to the schedule released by the producers, Tuesday’s episode will cover three major topics, each deeply relevant to Nigeria’s current political, security, and sports narratives.

🔥 Topic One: South East Insecurity and Separatist Agitation, Who Is to Blame?

The first topic dives headfirst into the complex and growing unrest across the South East region, where the lines between criminality, secessionist movements, and failed state responses continue to blur.

The DDM panel is expected to dissect recent killings, enforced sit-at-home orders, and military operations, with a focus on groups like the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and Eastern Security Network (ESN).

Many analysts have accused the federal government of over-militarizing the region while ignoring root causes such as political marginalization, economic decline, and historic injustice.

Others, however, blame local actors and failed leadership for enabling violence disguised as activism.

The panel promises an unfiltered debate on who really shoulders the blame, and what the path to peace may look like.

⚖️ Topic Two: INEC Invalidates Abure-Led Labour Party Leadership

The second segment will examine the political earthquake within the Labour Party, following the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) decision to nullify the leadership of Julius Abure.

The development comes amid prolonged internal power struggles within the Labour Party, despite its rising influence after the 2023 elections, where presidential candidate Peter Obi finished third with over 6 million votes.

Critics say the internal wrangling is weakening the party’s credibility ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The DDM Morning Show will explore whether INEC’s ruling is politically motivated or a legal consequence of disorganized party management, and what it means for opposition unity in the coming years.

🏆 Topic Three: Nigeria Wins 5th Afrobasket Women’s Title, A Triumph Amid Turmoil

The show will wrap up on a celebratory note as it highlights Nigeria’s historic victory at the 2025 FIBA Women’s Afrobasket Championship, marking the fifth time the D’Tigress team has clinched the continental title.

The win has sparked widespread pride and national excitement, especially in contrast to the socio-political gloom dominating headlines.

DDM analysts will explore the impact of sports diplomacy, the underinvestment in women’s sports, and how Nigeria’s female athletes continue to shine globally, despite the odds.
