Minister's son challenges father, vows 2027 anti-government movement

Marshall Ekperikpe Ekpo, claiming to be the son of Petroleum Minister Ekperikpe Ekpo, has publicly challenged his alleged father to a DNA test and announced plans to lead a people-powered movement against government influence in Nigeria's 2027 elections. The dispute, rooted in a personal family conflict, has taken on political overtones as it targets the minister's 'federal might' comment. The development is notable for its potential to distract or embarrass the minister, but its broader political impact remains unclear.
