PoliticsRe: The Kwankwaso Illusion: Kano Is Not The North. by AlphaTaikun: 1:15am On Jul 04
CharlesCNG:
In response to thread, Where are the obidients megaphones of 2023,a n Obidient recently made the familiar claim that “all those you mentioned won’t bring 10 percent of the votes Kwankwaso would bring in the North.”

It sounds powerful until you place it beside the 2023 election results. Then the myth begins to collapse.

So let us leave emotion and enter arithmetic.

Is Kwankwaso a northern giant, or is he mainly a Kano colossus being mistaken for the whole North?


This begs the question: which North are we talking about — Kano North or Northern Nigeria?

In the 2023 presidential election, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso scored 1,496,687 votes nationally. But here is the uncomfortable truth: 997,279 of those votes came from Kano alone. That means roughly two-thirds of his total national vote came from one state. Kwankwaso won Kano with almost one million votes.

Now look beyond Kano.

Across the entire North-West, Kwankwaso scored 1,268,250 votes. Remove Kano’s 997,279, and he got only about 270,971 votes from the remaining six North-West states combined: Kaduna, Katsina, Jigawa, Kebbi, Sokoto and Zamfara.

In the North-East, he scored only 126,343 votes. In the North-Central, including FCT, he scored only 60,056 votes.

So where exactly is this mythical “Kwankwaso will deliver the North” coming from?

Kwankwaso has value, no doubt. He has a strong Kano base. He has name recognition. He has Kwankwasiyya structure. But Kano strength is not the same thing as Northern conquest.

And here is the harder political question: if Kwankwaso, a Hausa/Fulani northern Muslim, could not win serious votes across most of the North while heading his own presidential ticket, how will he suddenly convince those same northern voters to troop out massively for a ticket headed by Peter Obi, a South-East Christian politician?

That is not ethnic hatred. That is electoral realism.

Historically, South-East presidential candidates have struggled to gain broad northern acceptance at presidential level. You may dislike that reality. You may call it unfair. You may blame civil-war memory, religious suspicion, elite propaganda, political mistrust or weak coalition-building. But serious politics begins by recognising voting patterns, not romanticising them.

Kwankwaso could not deliver Katsina. He could not deliver Kaduna. He could not deliver Sokoto. He could not deliver Zamfara. He could not deliver the North-East. He could not deliver the North-Central. But suddenly, as Obi’s number two, he will unlock the North like an ATM card?

Politics is not abracadabra.

A serious coalition counts votes. A fantasy coalition counts vibes.

So yes, Kwankwaso may help Obi in Kano. But anyone saying he will “deliver the North” is selling political suya without meat.

Kano is important. Kano is powerful. But Kano is not the North.
PoliticsRe: Tinubu Is Silently Restructuring Nigeria Without A National Conference by AlphaTaikun: 1:13am On Jul 04
AhmedPeacemaker:
President Tinubu is Silently Restructuring Nigeria Without a National Conference

For 25 years after Nigeria’s return to democracy in 1999, calls for “restructuring” were tied to one demand: a national conference.

Tinubu Is Restructuring Nigeria Without a National Conference”, argues that the changes amount to the most extensive devolution of power in a generation.

Here are 8 key areas highlighted in the report:

1. State Police: A New Security Architecture
On June 24, 2026, the Senate passed a constitutional amendment bill to establish state police. The bill proposes a dual policing system: states can set up their own police services with defined safeguards, while the Nigeria Police Force retains responsibility for national security.
Proponents have called it the most significant security restructuring since 1999. Previous governments discussed the idea, but critics warned of possible misuse by state executives. The new bill, according to Maximillian, includes “safeguards against political abuse.”

2. Local Government Financial Autonomy
For decades, many local government councils relied on the Joint Account system, which gave state governors significant control over council funds.
Under Tinubu, the Federal Government supported legal efforts that strengthened direct remittance to LGAs.
The shift is aimed at allowing funds to reach councils without passing first through state accounts a move described as empowering grassroots governance.

3. A Comprehensive Tax Overhaul
In 2025, four major tax laws were signed:
The Nigeria Tax Act, Nigeria Tax Administration Act, Nigeria Revenue Service Act, and Joint Revenue Board Act.
The reforms seek to simplify tax collection, reduce overlapping levies, and improve ease of doing business. Under the new framework, small businesses with annual turnover up to ₦100 million now have broader tax exemptions.

4. Oil Revenue Remittance Changes
In 2026, the administration directed that all government oil and gas revenues be remitted directly into the Federation Account. The directive reduces retention arrangements that previously allowed deductions before remittance, a practice critics said limited transparency in oil income distribution.

5. Fuel Subsidy Removal
Fuel subsidy was removed on the first day of the Tinubu administration, ending a policy successive governments had debated for years.
The government said the move would free trillions of naira for infrastructure and state allocations, though it also led to immediate economic pressure on households and businesses.

6. Electricity Decentralisation
The Electricity Act now allows states to generate, transmit, and distribute electricity within their territories. Previously, power was largely centralized under federal control. States can now create independent electricity markets and attract private investment into the sector.

7. Regional Development Commissions
Six new regional development commissions covering North West, North East, North Central, South East, South, and South West have been established.
The commissions are designed to coordinate region-specific development planning alongside federal ministries.

8. Higher FAAC Allocations to States
Following subsidy removal and exchange-rate reforms, Federal Account Allocation Committee, FAAC, distributions to states rose significantly compared to previous years.
The increase has reduced a long-standing argument that the federal government starves states of resources.

Reforms Many Had Demanded’
Maximillian notes that many of these issues have been central to Nigeria’s governance debate for years. “If we’re honest, we would know that these issues he’s handling have been the major issues limiting Nigeria,” he wrote, adding that some critics of the administration had previously called for similar reforms.
The administration has not described its approach as “restructuring.” Officials say the changes are targeted constitutional amendments and policy reforms to improve efficiency, security, and fiscal management.
Whether described as restructuring or reform, the cumulative effect is a shift in how power, money, and responsibility are distributed across Nigeria’s federal system and without convening a national conference.
PoliticsRe: Why Did Ned Agree To Anim-oma State Instead Of Concentrating On Anioma State by AlphaTaikun: 1:10am On Jul 04
DomPerignon:
The Anim-Oma state with Orlu as it's capital is why Ned Nwoko was rejected by his people.

Former Governor Okowa swung into action upon hearing that Ned Nwoko had agreed in a meeting with SE stakeholders to merge Anioma with Orlu state project and cede Asaba to Orlu as the new proposed capital.

While legislators from Delta North in the Delta State Assembly alongside Traditional rulers in Anioma all rejected merging Anioma to Orlu project, the Governor and entire State Assembly members of Imo had already drawn plans and set aside money to build a governor's house for the proposed Anim-Oma state.

The foolishness of Ned in agreeing to such rubbish instead of concentrating on creating a separate state for Anioma rather than agreeing to make Anioma people and Asaba second class to Orlu , was why Okowa swung into action and decided to ensure the deranged Ned Nwoko does not represent Anioma people ever again going forward.

Anioma people are not discriminated in their current state in Delta .

They have produced a governor courtesy of the rotation system in place.

Asaba is the capital of Delta state since it's inception and has received huge investments to ensure it is seen as one.

So what in God's name will make Ned Nwoko to agree to subscribe to Anim-Oma state and have Asaba lose it's capital status and see to Anioma people become a minority among a majority Ibos population?

Was the entire premise of Anioma state meant to charter an independent course for Anioma people?

Why then did Ned agree to the terms of Ibo politicians to join Anim Oma and lose everything including their own soverighty , identity, state capital ?

And for Ned to even think his people will agree to such capitulation shows how deranged he is.
The Asagba of Asaba HRM Azinge, SAN, already affirmed (as seen in the recent rants of the boy in the video right BELOW) the historical IGALA paternal ethnic origins or descent of Asaba people and it's a FACT of history that Anioma folks are of multiethnic origins from Benin- Edo, Esan-Edo, Yoruba (Olukumi) in Aniocha North, Igala, Nri, etc, so I wonder where this guy called Ned Nwoko and the 4 YouTubers he recruited and paid money to relentlessly propagate weekly online disinformation get their highly IRRESPONSIBLE audacity from? There is a group photograph posted online and hear on NL which Ned took with those hired propagandist YouTubers such as the ranting boy in the video below wearing braids.

CrimeRe: Suspected ₦2.5M Thief Ekene Agala Lands In Correctional Facility Despite Denials by AlphaTaikun: 11:53pm On Jul 03
IzunnaOkafor:
By Izunna Okafor, Awka

The controversial case involving Ekene Agala, the man whose brutal beating by a mob recently triggered off a chain of reactions and counter-reactions on social media, has taken a surprising turn, as a court ordered his remand in a correctional facility over allegations of burglary and theft.

Agala, who had attracted public sympathy after videos showing him with severe facial injuries went viral online on social earlier this week, was on Thursday remanded in correctional custody after being arraigned before a Magistrate's Court on a 13-count charge bordering on burglary and stealing, which he initially denied despite several beatings.

The latest development on the case was confirmed in a post by human rights activist Harrison Gwamnishu, who had earlier intervened in the matter and publicly condemned the mob attack on Agala on the basis that jungle justice should have no place in a lawful society, regardless of any allegation against the suspect.

The case first gained viral attention after some touching videos surfaced online showing Agala badly beaten by angry mob and security personnel following allegations that he stole ₦2.5 million from a residence in Enugu State. In the viral footage, the suspect repeatedly denied the accusation, swore on the graves of his late parents that he was innocent, and challenged his accusers to produce CCTV footage allegedly linking him to the theft. The videos generated a plethora of reactions and counter-reactions, with many Nigerians condemning the brutal assault and calling for justice while questioning the resort to mob action.

Reacting to the incident at the time, Gwamnishu disclosed that preliminary information available to him suggested that the allegation against Agala might not have been substantiated. He had also criticised the mob action, stressing that no suspect should be subjected to torture or extra-judicial punishment before investigations are concluded.

However, in a fresh update shared on Thursday after personally following up on the matter at the Enugu North Magistrates' Court, the activist said his independent findings painted a significantly different picture from the one initially circulated on social media.

According to him, he travelled from Asaba to Enugu on Monday, June 29, to ensure that justice was done in the matter and to verify the circumstances surrounding the incident.

He explained that upon arriving in Enugu, he met with investigators and conducted further inquiries, during which multiple complainants, witnesses and pieces of evidence were reportedly presented to the authorities.

Gwamnishu said the investigation allegedly established that Agala broke into the residence of one Mrs. Nneka Emmanuel and stole the sum of ₦2.5 million.

He maintained that although he had consistently condemned the mob assault against the suspect, his commitment was always to justice and due process rather than public sentiment.

According to him, while many social media users were content with promoting one-sided narratives and creating content around the incident, he chose to follow the legal process to its conclusion.

The activist disclosed that he returned to Enugu to witness the court proceedings firsthand.

He said Agala was subsequently arraigned before a Magistrate's Court on a 13-count charge relating to burglary and stealing, after which the court ordered that he be remanded in a correctional facility pending further proceedings.

According to Gwamnishu, the court declined to grant the defendant bail at this stage of the proceedings.

He further revealed that individuals who allegedly fell victim to the suspect's activities were present in court during the arraignment.

Reflecting on the outcome, the activist said the development reinforces the importance of allowing law enforcement agencies and the courts to determine criminal responsibility based on evidence rather than emotions or viral social media narratives.

He stressed that justice should neither be driven by public sympathy nor online campaigns but by verifiable facts and the rule of law.

Notwithstanding the latest development on the case, this reporter, Izunna Okafor, gathered that under Nigeria's criminal justice system, a remand order is not a conviction, as every defendant remains presumed innocent until proven guilty by a competent court. Consequently, prosecution is still required to prove the allegations beyond reasonable doubt during the trial before any finding of guilt can be made.

RomanceRe: “There’s No True Love In The UK” – Lady Cries Out, Advises Nigerians To Bring Th by AlphaTaikun: 11:45pm On Jul 03
[quote author=EmmyMaestro post=139911702]“There’s no true love in the UK” – Lady cries out, advises Nigerians to bring their partners abroad

A Nigerian lady has sparked reactions on social media after claiming that genuine love is difficult to find in the United Kingdom, urging Nigerians in relationships to hold on to their partners back home.

According to the lady, many people relocate abroad expecting to find lasting relationships, only to end up disappointed by their experiences.

In her words, she said:

“I’ve come to realize that there’s no true love in this UK. You will cry in Gege’s voice. If you have somebody in Nigeria and the relationship is serious, go back and bring the person over here.”

She stressed that her advice applies to both women and men, insisting that those who already have committed partners in Nigeria should not risk losing them while searching for love abroad.

She explained that her warning was based on what she has personally observed, suggesting that many people abroad struggle to find genuine love.

“The same thing applies to the men too. There’s no true love in the UK. Wake up from sleep,” she added.

Her remarks have since generated mixed reactions online. While some Nigerians living abroad agreed with her experience, others argued that healthy relationships can be found anywhere, provided both partners are committed.

The viral video has reignited conversations about dating, long-distance relationships and the realities of finding love after relocating overseas.

treesun:
Minister for Youth Development, Federal Republic of Nigeria, Ayodele Olawande clarifies:

My attention has been drawn to some media reports following my brief appearance earlier this morning on Channels TV regarding the ongoing reforms of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), particularly on the issue of the proposed uniform.

For the avoidance of doubt, yes, I mentioned Adire during the discussion. I also mentioned Ankara. My intention was simply to cite examples of some of the proposals that have been put forward in the course of our consultations. It was not an announcement that any particular fabric has been adopted or approved to replace the current NYSC uniform.


For the record, what we are considering are different options that tick all the right boxes in terms of professional outlook, a unique national identity, durability, functionality, cost-effectiveness, and the projection of national pride. No final decision has been taken on the fabric or design.

As with every aspect of the ongoing NYSC reforms, any eventual decision will be guided by extensive stakeholder engagement and what best serves the interests of the Scheme and the nation.


I respectfully urge Nigerians to continue to engage with the ongoing NYSC reform conversation based on its broader objectives and the immense benefits it holds for our young people and our country. The reforms are designed to make the Scheme more relevant to today's realities by improving employability, promoting entrepreneurship, strengthening national integration, enhancing service delivery, and creating a smoother transition from education to productive careers.

While conversations around the uniform are understandable, they should not overshadow the far-reaching reforms aimed at empowering millions of Nigerian youths and positioning the NYSC as a stronger platform for national development.

I appreciate the constructive feedback and assure Nigerians that every proposal will continue to be carefully considered in the best interest of the nation.

By Our Correspondent

The Ogun State Police Command has recovered the Lexus RX300 earlier reported missing from the residence of late retired broadcaster, Ms. Kitan Oyesiku, as investigations into her death and that of her security guard gather momentum.

The state Commissioner of Police, CP Bode Ojajuni, on Sunday visited the scene of the incident to assess developments in the ongoing investigation and receive firsthand briefings from detectives handling the case.

According to the Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Oluseyi Babaseyi, the CP inspected the premises and reviewed the progress made so far in efforts to unravel the circumstances surrounding the deaths.

Babaseyi stated that the police commissioner reiterated the command's commitment to ensuring that all those connected with the crime are identified, apprehended and prosecuted.

He disclosed that police operatives recovered the Lexus RX300 during an overnight operation, adding that the vehicle had been secured as an exhibit to aid the investigation.

"The Commissioner of Police has directed that all available resources be deployed to ensure a thorough investigation and the arrest of those responsible for the crime," the police spokesperson said.

Ojajuni also sympathised with the family of the deceased and assured residents of the state that the command remained committed to bringing the perpetrators to justice.

The police command further stated that significant progress had been made in the investigation and promised to keep the public informed of further developments as the case unfolds.

PoliticsRe: Tinubu Sends State Police Bill To Senate by AlphaTaikun: 2:57pm On Jun 24
InfoGuru118:
InfoGuru118 from Nairaland:

"President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has formally transmitted a Constitution Alteration Bill to the Senate seeking to establish state police across the country.

The proposed legislation aims to amend relevant provisions of the 1999 Constitution to provide the legal and institutional framework for the creation and operation of state police forces in the federation.

The move marks a significant step in ongoing efforts to reform Nigeria’s security architecture and deepen the role of state governments in maintaining law and order within their jurisdictions.

President Tinubu has consistently advocated constitutional changes to allow states greater responsibility in addressing security challenges. In February, he called on the National Assembly to expedite amendments that would pave the way for state policing, arguing that the current security realities require a more decentralized approach.

According to the President, empowering states with their own police structures would strengthen efforts to combat terrorism, banditry, kidnapping and other forms of criminality across the country.

The bill is expected to undergo legislative scrutiny in the National Assembly, where lawmakers will consider its provisions and implications for Nigeria’s federal system and security framework.

EducationRe: The Difference Between A Forest And A Jungle (Photos) by AlphaTaikun: 2:46pm On Jun 24
Rapmoney:
There are words people erroneously use interchangeably, but there are clear distinctions between them.

Today, we are looking at FOREST and JUNGLE.

Is there any difference between a forest and a jungle? Yes, there are differences.

Jungle is actually a type of forest. While a forest is a broad term for any large area covered in trees (found in all climates). A jungle is a specific, tangled, and overgrown region typically found in the tropics, where thick undergrowth often makes the area impassable.

1. Vegetation Density: Forests have organized tree structures and are generally easy to walk through. Jungles are dense tangles of vines, shrubs, and trees where ground-level vegetation is often impenetrable without machetes.

2. Sunlight: Forests often have dense canopies that allow for shaded, clear forest floors. In a jungle, the thick chaotic ground growth results from sunlight penetrating at the edges or through gaps, causing lush undergrowth.

3. Climate: Forests exist in virtually any climate—from temperate pine forests in Canada to boreal forests in Siberia. Jungles are almost exclusively warm, humid, and tropical.

4. Geography: Forests are large regions that can cover massive swaths of the globe. Jungles are usually smaller ecosystems situated on the outer margins or edges of tropical rainforests.

I hope say you dor learn one or two today.

Keep learning and keep growing. The mind that learns is the mind that grows.

Mtcheew!

These people should learn for once to take full historical responsibility and stop playing the victim. Victimhood is a totally negative attitude which prevents social, psychological and mental healing! A secession from Nigeria was unwisely made on May 30, 1967 by Col. Ojukwu WITHOUT a referendum being conducted for the non-Ibos in the Old Eastern Region (which had been split into 3 new states out of the 12 new States created on May 27, 1967 by General Yakubu Gowon with the knowledge of the Rivers leaders of thought and ethnic minorities led by the Ijaw nationalist Chief Harold Dappa-Biriye from Bonny Island, the Ogoni activist Ken Saro-Wiwa and many more who had called for new States to be created in 1966 and it was fulfilled on May 27, 1967).

It was highly unwise for Ojukwu to have included the Ijaws, Ibibios, Annangs, Ejagbams, Efiks, Efuts, Kwas, and more in his illegal secession because these folks NEVER collectively asked to leave Nigeria and they had there long-standing fears of Ibo domination. This invasion of non-Ibo areas by Col. Ojukwu and his rebel forces is what triggered the war hence leading to many ethnic minorities joining the Nigerian Army, Navy, and Airforce to liberate their people and lands. Period.

Being a man who understands global geopolitical dynamics for years now including what's currently going on in Nigeria, I recall from my database, a lecturer from the Dan Fodio University in Sokoto State wrote a paper and gave a speech entitled "We Are All Bandits" and revealed bluntly in a Punch newspaper interview of 2021 that he knew Bello Turji and other Fula militia bandit members when they were just ordinary Fula herdsmen in their cattle settlements before they went fully into banditry
(and that Bello Turji and his gangs members have been using surveillance drones and CCTVs cameras in his hide outs to launch attacks on the indigenous Hausa people of Zamfara State and others in other States such as Kaduna, Niger, Katsina, Jigawa, etc), since the days of the Buhari Presidency. Buhari himself being born of a foreign Fula man from Niger Republic who migrated to Katsina.

The foreign Fula militia bandits use rustled (or stolen cow) to buy AK-47 rifles with 1 cow being exchanged for one AK-47 rifle in the black market.

The minority Fula Governors are behind the protection of these Fula militia bandits and if the Hausas of the North-West States of Nigeria and others don't ease those Fula Governors out, the bandits would continue to have a field day.
PoliticsRe: Atiku’s Presidency Will Be Synonymous To Fulani Taking Power – Babachir Lawal by AlphaTaikun: 5:35pm On Jun 08
treesun:
Ex-Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Babachir Lawal, has said that the presidency of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, is synonymous to Fulani presidency.

Lawal, who recently resigned from the ADC over an allegation of flawed primary election, stated this in a post on his Facebook page late Saturday.

He said his first post on Atiku, who he described as ‘Kachalla’, has made almost the whole of Nigeria’s Fulani race to descend on him with all manner of insults and threats.


“Atiku’s presidency will be synonymous to a Fulani presidency even as Bola Tinubu’s presidency is synonymous to a Yoruba presidency and the Yorubas are proud of him no doubt.

“The vile propaganda, insults and threats that the Atiku’s goons and social media bandits have been churning out on me because as they claim, I have insulted the whole Fulani race in pointing out his fallibility.

“Well, if pointing out the danger an Atiku’s presidency will pose to the country amounts to insulting the whole Fulani race, and if that is how the Fulani race chooses to see it, so be it. It is a free world,” Lawal said.

The man is too desperate. I’ve never supported him anyways.
Peter is way too desperate and doesn't understand the geopolitical dynamics of Nigeria. If he then mistakenly becomes the Nigerian President, he'll make a lot of serious policy mistakes in his planned 1-term of being in office and then the minority Fula dude called Kwankwaso will then surreptitiously ease him out with his inner team in an insidious power play.

Dr. Kach Ononuju who spoke in that 2025 video was in the Labor Party with Peter and he was born and grew up in the North of Nigeria where he still lives (so he knows full well the power play the minority Fulas are engaging in to gain total political power to the detrimental of the Hausas and others using different political parties)... Such as ADC with Atiku, APC, PRP, and now NDC.
