This is beyond that.

Dangote just cleaned up the main bowl and fixed the grass to make it manageable.

This upgrade is about bringing the entire stadium to world class standard, with digital advertising boards, world class pitch, VAR setup, upgraded training facilities, velodrome upgrade, 200 room hostel upgrades, etc etc.

A full-spectrum upgrade to bring the stadium in line with global best practices.

These are the sort of things the FG couldn't bring out money for when we were spending over a third of our income on fuel subsidies.

NOW there is money to spend on building the country.

Expect more of such upgrades and projects across the nation in the months and years ahead.

Obi is right. Why place barriers on philanthropists wanting to feed people? The Police should rather offer assistance on coordinating such events.

You will not hear that fake Pastor Judas Yemi Osinbajo rejects the bogus benefits so that he will not be unevenly yoked with unbelievers. Useless thief. Ordinary 5,000 TraderMoni, he embezzled it. The vagabond is now the one making comments about the economy.

What about Obasanjo that raised the bar of corruption in Nigeria after IBB established and institutionalised corruption? You will not hear the bastard reject the bogus benefits despite all that he looted with Atikulation Abubakar the US fugitive and Cameroonian bisexual, but he loves writing letters about the bad economy

The Federal Capital Territory Internal Revenue Service (FCT-IRS) says it will be responsible for the collection of all revenues on behalf of the six area councils of the FCT in 2025.

Mr Michael Ango, acting Executive Chairman of the services announced this at the 2024 end of year media briefing in Abuja on Thursday.

Ango said that the goal was to ease compliance by taxpayers in the FCT and improve transparency and accountability for all revenue collection.

He said that a similar arrangement was being worked out with the various Secretariats, Departments and Agencies in the FCT Administration.

He explained that the decision was in compliance with the directive of the FCT Minister, Mr Nyesom Wike.

“The revenue collected will, however, remain theirs. All we are doing is to assist them to collect and aggregate it.

“Thereafter, the monies will be disbursed to them in their various accounts,” he said.

The FCT-IRS boss further said that the service would also focus on harmonisation of revenue administration in the FCT from 2025.

He added that a meeting had already been held with the chairmen of the area councils who have agreed to collaborate on the full harmonisation of revenue collection in the territory.

“We have different agencies in the FCT that collect revenue on behalf of the FCT Administration and these agencies collect all these revenue items individually.

“Globally, this is not the best practice. Therefore, Wike has directed that all the agencies in the FCT must have one central point for revenue collection.

“We must have a harmonised revenue administration system whereby taxpayers in the FCT, individuals and residents who want to pay any tax levies or fees to the FCT Administration will do that at one point.

“We will also have one central revenue reporting point to ensure better transparency and accountability for revenues collected,” he said.

Which country in Africa can stand against Nigeria? A Nigerian was competing for something he rightfully deserved, and all Nigerians were backing him, Morocco wan talk?

As wetin?

Tinubu removed subsidy, Cameroon and Niger started protesting.

NCC fined MTN for not terminating unregistered SIM cards, the South African President had to come to Nigeria to seek a diplomatic solution with former President Buhari. The MTN global CEO was fired because Nigeria was angry.

Buhari shut international borders; it affected the economies of West African countries.

Tinubu won election, John Mahama was in Nigeria after election monitoring duties to congratulate him. John Mahama won elections in Ghana, and he came to Nigeria to meet Tinubu, likely to invite him for his inauguration.

When foreign interests threatened Akinwumi Adesina's second term at AfDB, ALL African countries backed him once Buhari backed him.

When Egypt tried to oppose Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala's appointment into WTO, Buhari damned them and their candidate could not get enough support from member states. He dropped out.

In music, no one challenges Nigeria in Africa. In fact, if you are in a gathering of Africans, you'd hear conversations about Nigeria.

Ademola Lookman deserved the CAF award for his exploits. Even CAF would not be prepared for the negative publicity that would have happened if he had been denied. It is those our netizens who'd use noise on twitter to accuse CAF of bias. No one wanted that.

Even Nigerian hater, Kemi Badenoch as UK Trade Secretary, was in Nigeria in February to look for trade agreements with the former minister for industry, trades and investment.

You are a great and respected country. You have potentials. You are just hard to please. Pile pressure on all politicians, starting from LGA chairmen to governors and president. You'd realize how much power you have.
