A Nigerian lady solo-driving from London, UK to Nigeria, Pelumi Nubi reveals the whooping amount she spends on fuel daily on her trip.
The brave Nigerian woman who embarked on a car journey from London about a week ago shared her daily expenses for fueling her car.
In a recent TikTok video she shared, Pelumi Nubi purchased fuel worth 47 Euros, equivalent to about N74,000. However, she mentioned that she typically spends around 50 Euros daily (approximately N79,000) to fuel the car.
Pelumi’s journey is anticipated to take her through 15 countries before reaching Nigeria. She is currently in Morocco and is getting closer to Nigeria as intended.
Sharing her arrival in Morocco, Pelumi emphasized how her trip is rounding up despite still having quite a journey ahead to reach Nigeria. https://www.gistreel.com/lady-driving-from-london-to-lagos-reveals-daily-fuel-cost-reaches-morocco/https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3KeU_WouGw/?igsh=MTE4cGtjZTd2OTk3Ng%3D%3D |

Business / Re: SCAM ALERT: Theobarth grant disbursement by aieromon(m): 6:28am On Feb 08 |
Fresh facts have emerged about the alleged criminal activities of the General Overseer of Faith On The Rock Ministry International, Apostle Theophilus Oloche Ebonyi, recently arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
Investigations showed that Ebonyi acquired a 23-room hotel, a pure water factory, two blocks of a Primary School and two bungalow offices at Nyanya-Gwandara, New Karu, Abuja and a five-bedroom duplex at Karsana, Abuja with the proceeds of his fraudulent dealings with his subscribers. He also set up a live broadcast channel with studio equipment for his Theobarth Global Foundation with the funds of his subscribers.
Ebonyi was arrested in 2023 by the EFCC for allegedly defrauding his church members and other Nigerians using fake grants from the Ford Foundation to the tune of N1, 319,040,274.31( One Billion Three Hundred and Nineteen Million, Forty Thousand, Two Hundred and Seventy-Four Naira, Thirty-One Kobo).
Specifically, he was arrested for defrauding his victims, comprising Non-Governmental Organisations, NGOs, and individuals by advertising an intervention project through his NGO (Theobarth Global Foundation) claiming that the Ford Foundation was offering a grant of $20,000, 000. 000 (Twenty Billion United States dollars) to assist the less-privileged in the society.
He allegedly hoodwinked his victims to subscribe as beneficiaries of the phoney grant by asking them to pay for registration forms and clusters. Each subscriber was made to pay N1,800,000(One Million, Eight Hundred Thousand Naira only). Through this arrangement, Ebonyi allegedly raked in N1,391,040, 274.31. His subscribers are innocent and unsuspecting Nigerians and NGOs across the country.
Investigations by the EFCC showed that the Ford Foundation had no arrangement, grant, relationship or business with Ebonyi. The Foundation pointedly disclaimed him and his NGO stressing that it had no link whatsoever with them. The Commission has also traced five properties he acquired as proceeds of his criminal dealings.
Ebonyi is still reportedly reaching his subscribers on some social media platforms to market his spurious grant from the Ford Foundation.

Investment / Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by aieromon(m): 10:04pm On Feb 07 |
Mills55: What is treasury bills rate oo? Anyone with info? The 364-day treasury bills stop rates spiked to 19% per annum, the first clear signal that the central bank was moving towards a hawkish monetary policy. The 182-day and 91-day bills also rose to 18% and 12.2%.
The rate hike is seen as a major monetary policy move aimed at fighting the depreciation of the naira and sucking out the excess money supply to combat galloping inflation.
At the last auction on the 29th of January, the interest rates for these maturities were recorded at 5% for the 91-day bills, 7.15% for the 182-day bills, and 11.54% for the 364-day bills, respectively.
Nairametrics had reported earlier that the central bank was likely to offer a higher interest rate for treasury bills, a move seen as a way to stifle the depreciation of the naira.
A total of N1 trillion was on offer but was oversubscribed as investors staked a whopping N2.3 trillion. The one-year bill on offer for N600 billion recorded a massive N1.8 trillion subscription out of which the central bank sold N908.7 billion
Details of the offer 91 days – Investors staked only N39.9 billion for the 91-day bill compared to the N200 billion offered by the apex bank. The range of interest rates bid was between 7% and 17.2%. The central banks sold the N39.9 billion staked.
182 days – Investors also undersubscribed the offer, staking just N76.8 billion out of the N200 billion offered by the central bank. The central bank allotted only N51.3 billion. The range of bids was 4% to 19.9%. The stop rate was 18% for treasury bills.
364 days – The one-year bill witnessed a three-fold oversubscription of about N1.8 trillion compared to the N600 billion that was on offer. The apex bank allotted N908.7 billion with stop rates of 19%. Investors bid between 13% and 29.9% as interest rates.
The higher-end bid of 29.9% which is slightly higher than the inflation rate, indicates where investors want rates to be. Some analysts who spoke to Nairametrics opine rates will likely continue to rise in the coming weeks as CBN intensifies efforts to combat exchange rate depreciation.
What this means As stated in our story earlier in the day, investors signaled that the apex bank was looking to increase interest rates in today’s auction in line with market expectations.
By tightening monetary policy through higher interest rates and larger treasury bill auctions, the CBN aims to curb inflation and stabilize the exchange rate, thereby fostering a more balanced economic environment. The decision to significantly raise the volume of treasury bills auctioned, especially for the 364-day tenure, underscores the CBN’s commitment to addressing the liquidity surplus in the economy. By absorbing excess liquidity, the CBN endeavors to counter inflationary pressures and support the naira’s value, which is crucial for economic stability and growth. Nigeria is now in a new phase for interest rates as most lending rates will also be adjusted higher to avoid negative yields.
The impact will likely be felt on short-term debt securities such as commercial papers with companies set to absorb increases in their finance cost. On the flip side, the exchange rate is expected to stabilize helping companies avoid exchange rate losses. The chances of these policies working will largely depend on whether foreign portfolio investors see this as an enticing enough return to inflow forex into the country. https://nairametrics.com/2024/02/07/nigerian-treasury-bills-rate-jumps-to-19-per-annum-as-cbn-targets-exchange-rate-stability/ |

To who it may concern The National Population Commission (NPC) says birth certificates will not be issued to persons older than 18 years of age.
The NPC State Director Oyo State, Mr Akin Oyetunde, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday in Ibadan that this is according to Act 1992, Birth and Death.
He said, “The NPC is guided by an Act propagated in 1992, so any child born before 1992 will not be issued a birth certificate.
“Instead of a birth certificate, people born before 1992 and those over 18 years old will be given an Attestation of Birth.
“However, those below 18 years old will be issued birth certificate by the commission.” https://www.vanguardngr.com/2024/02/only-persons-below-18-will-be-issued-birth-certificate-says-npc/ 1 Like |
