chiiraq802: Did he condemn or raise alarm when his fulani brothers were causing mayhem to Nigerians.
bia!!! dis Dubai landlord becareful.
Atiku raised alarm, but it’s not surprising that tribalistic people were blind and deaf to the reality.
Meanwhile, you should show us where Jagaban of Borgu raised alarm in Buhari tenure instead of blaming Igbo people for the crime of his Fulani brothers.
franchasng: Nobody is talking about men spending or not spending on women....of course men must spend on women till the world ends....but for a billionaire's young son to open eyes go marry a divorced woman with kids in his first marriage look appalling; is his dad aware of this marriage, I doubt......there are millions of super gorgeous single, never touched girls ready to die for him....something must be wrong somewhere, its an aberration.....it could be a blackmail or the guy is under influence of something that will fly off soon
King Charles’ great uncle not only married a divorced woman, he abdicated the throne to be with her.
Prince Harry also married a divorced woman and abandoned his royal family for her.
In what way are Nigerians better than the British who colonised us and now we are asking them to recolonise us, by doing japa to their country?
forgiveness: Oga! This is not about being frail or cowardly. It is for the collective interest of the Nation to shield him from damage. Especially now that coup is becoming frequent these days. Precaution is needed foe the preservation of our hard earned democracy.
Riversides2003: Betty Edu when get corruption case hanging on her neck so glaringly. lol
There is a reason why Oshiomhole said that their party is for redeemed crooks who can no longer be condemned for their crimes.
A party led by the master strategist of a-looter crooks.
chisomkachy: The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has withdrawn the alleged money laundering suit it filed at the Federal High Court against Lagos Speaker Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa.
Naija News understands that the anti-graft did not give any particular reason for its application for withdrawal.
Following the application to withdraw, Justice Nicholas Oweibo discharged the ‘lien/Post No Debit’ placed on Obasa’s three accounts in Standard Chartered Bank.
The accounts are (US Dollars) 0001852063; (Current) 0001852056 and (Saving) 5002309624.
The judge also set aside the ex-parte orders he made on September 15, 2020, which led to the freezing of the accounts.
Recall that the court on September 15, 2020, granted an interim order freezing Obasa’s accounts following the EFCC’s application in a suit marked FHC/LCS/1064/2020.
The agency had said it was investigating the Speaker for the alleged offences of conspiracy, diversion of funds, abuse of office and money laundering.
But Justice Oweibo, on August 16, 2023, heard the application to unfreeze the accounts in his chamber.
During the hearing, the EFCC was represented by Mr. Sulaiman I. Sulaiman, while Obasa was represented by Mr. Adeyinka Olumide-Fusika (SAN).
The EFCC lawyer told the court that the application to unfreeze the accounts was pursuant to Section 44(2)(K) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended) and Sections 26, 29 and 34 (1) of the EFCC (Establishment) Act, 2004, and under the court’s inherent jurisdiction.
Section 44 of the Constitution concerns constitutional rights to property.
Justice Oweibo held: “It is hereby ordered that an order is hereby granted to the respondent/applicant setting aside the ex-parte orders of this court made on the 15th day of September 2020 upon the ex-parte motion of the Applicant/ Respondent in relation the funds of the Respondent/Applicant domiciled in the accounts stated in the following schedule:
“ACCOUNT NAME, FINANCIAL ACCOUNT INSTITUTIONS, TYPE OF ACCOUNT, 1. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered, (US Dollars) 0001852063 2. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Current) 0001852056 3. Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Saving) 5002309624.
“Issued at Lagos, under the seal of this Honourable Court and by the hands of the Presiding Judge this 16th day of August 2023.”
Tjra: Unfortunately, Obi does not know he is being used. He is God's gift to Jagaban.
He was the devil’s gift to dull Bola in 2023, and the gift continues to give for next year elections.
Why do you think that Obi is so naive? Is it desperation, or what else?
Kwankwaso has been given renewed hope for 2031, assuming that Tinubu fails to get a 3rd term then just like Obasanjo failed in 2007.
Kwankwaso is the new Utomi.

lexylaw40: The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
The governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in Oyo State, Tawfiq Akinwale, [/b]on Wednesday [b]stated that the “President-elect” Bola Tinubu asked popular economist, Prof Pat Utomi to step down for Peter Obi in the buildup to the 2023 general elections.
Akinwale made this revelation while he appeared as a guest on a radio programme on 101.7 YES FM, Ibadan, Oyo State, while alleging that Obi received campaign funds from Utomi, whom he described as Tinubu's "son."
The LP aspirant, who spoke in Yoruba language, said "In the buildup to the 2023 elections, Obi who had purchased the nomination form of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), suddenly announced his exit from the party.
"Initially, Pat Utomi had secured the LP's presidential ticket, but when Peter Obi said he resigned from the PDP and joined the LP. Bola Tinubu, a master political strategist, quickly told Utomi, that everyone knows to be his son to step down for Obi.
"The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
"What Peter Obi didn't know is much more that what he knows, he started collecting campaign funds from Utomi, while Tinubu was giving the money to Utomi.
"This went on until Obi's presidential campaign got to a stage it went beyond target. Obi was used without him knowing," Akinwale said after announcing his departure from the party.
Obi defected to the LP after resigning his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and also withdrawing from the presidential race under the party.
The former governor consequently joined the race for the party’s presidential ticket, while Professor Pat Utomi, in June 2022 stepped down for him to emerge as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, unopposed in Asaba, Delta State.
Richtaiwo: Fani Kayode is not joking with Dino Melaye.
Is dull Bola joking with Nigerians in his incompetence and corruption that has made life difficult and unbearable?
NLCreator666: Lagos Resident Laments Economic Hardship, Hunger Under Tinubu, Confesses To Beating Elderly People, Others To Make Tinubu President
A Lagos state resident has lamented his inability to get petroleum despite beating people including the elderly to vote for President Bola Tinubu in 2023.
In a video posted on social media, he narrated how life had been hard for him despite all he did to ensure Tinubu became Nigeria’s President.
He said, “We wanted to buy fuel but we have been unable to get. They even beat us at the petroleum station. I was among those that beat people at Idi-Oro.
“We went from house to house, asking people to vote for you (referring to Tinubu). You emerged as the President and now you are destroying our lives. Getting food to eat is difficult for us.”
He noted that despite the hardship, different agencies in the state have kept milking them through taxation.
"I voted for Jagaban, I was among those that flogged people we refused to vote Tinubu at Idi-oro. We went from House to House attacking people who didn't vote for Jagaban, Today I am regretting”.
He said, “We are suffering in Nigeria, we have become lazy even in our own father’s land. We are drivers and that’s how we survive. LASTMA (Lagos State Traffic Management Agency), VIO (Vehicle Inspection Office) all collect money from us. Please Tinubu, do something about this hardship.
“We are the same people that beat up others so you could become the President. Some of them people we beat were our father’s mates, but we beat them up. We did that just because of you so you could become the President, and we kept saying it was our turn.
“Look at it now, the outcome is suffering, we cannot even buy rice again. You cannot buy N1000 food and be okay. I bought food of N1200 today and my kids have not eaten at home.”
He also expressed worry that he would be beaten for the comments he was making about Tinubu.
“I know that what I have said now, they will still come to beat me at home. I know that for sure,” he said.
anonimi: May Day: Hunger, unemployment, insecurity real— Tinubu
According to him: “The theme demands our collective attention and serves as a stark reminder of the need to create an environment where every worker feels safe, valued, and empowered to contribute to the growth and prosperity of our nation. As your President, I assure you that this administration is committed to creating such an environment for the common good.”
On the economic hardship, he noted that while it is a global phenomenon, its effects on Nigerians are particularly severe.
Tinubu said: “I am aware of the peculiarities of the economic hardship Nigerians face—rising living costs, hunger, insecurity, unemployment, and the loss of livelihoods. These challenges are real and demand definitive solutions, which I am poised to address as your President.
PheelzAlmighty: Nothing works here.... The corruption is unbelievable
That is the problem with making the worst rogue politician president. The problem is further complicated by his balabu bulaba incompetence.
Bola is truly a dull thief.
5 mind-boggling revelations from Obasanjo’s ‘My Watch’
5. Tinubu was one of the most corrupt, of the 36 governors
Obasanjo never got along too well with former Lagos state governor, Bola Tinubu, and unsurprisingly, Tinubu got a mention in the former’s book.
Obasanjo revealed that then EFCC boss, Nuhu Ribadu tried to investigate almost all the state governors during his tenure but that of the 28 confirmed to be manifestly corrupt or tainted one way or the other, Tinubu’s case was one of the worst.
Lagos — ABIA State governor, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu and his Lagos State counterpart, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu would not escape justice but would be made to face the full wrath of the law following their recent indictment for alleged corruption by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Chairman of the commission Mallam Nuhu Ribadu who made the vow yesterday said the duo must account for their stewardship and may be thrown out of office.
onuman: The corruption surrounding fuel subsidy has been the issue all along, not fuel subsidy itself. Peter Obi was right with saying that he will eliminate the corruption but sustain subsidy.
This is not true. The wicked, anti people politician said he would continue Tinubu subsidies removal.it was the same way he supported LP lawmakers having expensive SUVs while people are struggling with inflation and hardship.
aariwa: It’s now clear to everybody that we have been vindicated based on what we have been saying from day one that tinubu does not have any economic policy but based everything he has been doing on bolekaja talks without anything on ground to show Nigerias… nothing good will e er come out of a stolen mandate
HOW did Tinubu steal the mandate from anyone? WHO did he steal it from
Racoon: That warped prismatic worldview is only buried in your imagination. Many Yoruba voters in the past are deeply regret voting Tinubu but you rarely hear any SE man/woman saying so about Peter Obi except Dave Umahi/Charles Soludo as it is today. The SE knows who they believe in and are never influence by any baba soope nonsense.
Obi is not president so what would be the performance basis for regretting or appreciating voting for him?
Nevertheless, he has shown that he is not different from Tinubu’s dictatorial style of stifling opposition and his anti-people policies like fuel subsidies removal.
It’s ironic how Obi was lured away from PDP to communist LP labourers camp after his wicked actions against them in the past.
NLCreator: Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections, has defended the purchase of sports utility vehicles (SUVs) for members of the national assembly.
There have been reports that the leadership of the 10th national assembly has bought SUVs for all lawmakers.
Each SUV is said to be valued at N160 million.
The LP had asked members of the party in the national assembly to kick against “wastage”.
While responding to questions during a press conference in Abuja on Monday, the former governor of Anambra said the SUVs are not personal cars of the lawmakers, noting that they are for official use.
“Let me start with the issue of Labour Party members in the house. I have actually discussed this issue with them,” Obi said.
“Surprisingly, I can tell you I heard that these vehicles are official cars. They have to use it. It is meant for office.
“So it is not as if it is their vehicle. They said it is official cars and you are meant to use it while you are in the senate.”
Obi also hinted at contesting for the country’s number one position in 2027, adding that Nigeria deserves dedicated and visionary leaders who will lead the country towards a brighter future.
IamPatriotic: Wike had spent this much and even more as an incumbent Governor, yet Atiku, who had been out of government since 2003, outspent and defeated him in the PDP primary election that year. This only confirms that Atiku stole enough money from the government as an ordinary Vice President to last his tenth generation.
God forbid that Kachalla should ever have another chance in Aso Rock. He will steal Nigeria into bankruptcy.
What money did Atiku spend on bankrupt, ex-convict Obasanjo to make him president in 1999, when he promised to do one term like Mandela?
Atiku’s generosity and business acumen must have been the motivation behind Obasanjo’s decision to ask him to leave the Adamawa governorship post he won in January to be his vice president.
anonimi: ‘How Atiku saved Obasanjo from near bankruptcy before he emerged president’‘
A new book has revealed how former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar, saved ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo from near bankruptcy before he emerged president in 1999.
According to the new book, entitled ‘’Too Good to Die: Third Term and the Myth of the Indispensable Man in Africa,’ Atiku made all his resources available for Obasanjo’s presidential campaign.
The book, written by former chairman of National Human Rights Commission, NHRC, Chidi Odinkalu, and Ayisha Osori, author of ‘’Love Does Not Win Elections,” also revealed how Obasanjo beat late Alex Ekwueme to the presidential ticket of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the 1999 election.
Quoting an account from Atiku, the authors said the trio of Ibrahim Babangida, Theophilus Danjuma and Abdulsalami Abubakar wanted PDP to adopt Obasanjo as their presidential candidate “because they considered him the best person for the job.”
“Implicit in their position was their belief that they knew how to manipulate Obasanjo and the fact that Obasanjo did their bidding in 1979. They felt secure that he could be managed again,” the authors wrote.
Atiku was reportedly asked to join a team to Ogun to inform Obasanjo that he was going to run for the highest office in the land.
“When Atiku and Obasanjo discussed the call to serve as president, Obasanjo said he could not be president because he was a nearly bankrupt ex-convict. Atiku, through General (Aliyu) Gusau, paid money into Obasanjo’s account to begin his financial rehabilitation.
“Head of State Abdulsalami Abubakar helped out by granting him an unconditional pardon. Atiku put everything he had at his disposal to support Obasanjo’s emergence as the PDP presidential candidate and, when he joined the ticket as the vice-presidential nominee, continued to make his assets available to Obasanjo and the campaign.
Trump should come and buy from the PDP licensed refinery here, since Tinubu prefers to undermine it by paying illegal subsidies under a new name, to importers of fuel from their Malta blending plants.
anonimi: NNPCL’s subsidy payment jump by 47.9% to N7.1trn in 2024
November 26, 2025
The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) paid a total of N7.1 trillion as subsidy for premium motor spirit (PMS) in 2024, this sum represents a 47.9 percent increase from N4.8 trillion recorded in 2023.
This is despite the government’s announcement of subsidy removal in 2023.
The company explained that the amount, which it termed ‘energy security expense’ arises when there is differential between the exchange rate used to freeze the premium motor spirit ex-coastal price and the prevailing rate at the point of import settlement.
According to the report, government had instructed that NNPC Limited cannot sell its PMS above a certain regulated price. It added that the cost of petrol import is usually much higher that the regulated price.
BJanta: My people from Iboland , e be like say Tinubu hardship don enter UK too o. Abi wetin you think? I no know why UK go go choose Tinubu dem president again.
OkanlawonB: just creating content, there is suffering in Germany too. Go to train stations of major cities in Germany, full of junkies and drug addicts.
Is this what makes the French president, his fellow citizens, Germans and other European people to do japa here and join us in drinking water from shitty boreholes, apart from other deprivations in this extreme poverty country?
The federal government is not responsible for water supply in cities and towns. This is the responsibility of states.
500 gallons of water go for N20k. Multiply by 4 in a month, that's N80k. By extrapolation, that's N960k in a year on water alone. Why? Because the governor believes that clean and accessible water is the least of his worries. Yet they prance around like Enugu is Abuja even though the red muddy soil will have residents looking like they went tomb-raiding at night.
But then, considering where it was before Peter Mba, one can understand the accolades being that he moved the town from 16th Century to 17th Century but not anywhere near 20th Century. 21st Century is a stretch. EEDC? The worst of all.
The Permanent Secretary, Office of Drainage Services and Water Resources in Lagos State, Mahmood Adegbite, has said that people drilling borehole in the Lekki axis of the state is probably drinking ‘’shit water.”
While speaking at a stakeholders meeting in the state recently, Adegbite noted that contaminated boreholes in Lekki pose health risk and added that treatment of waste water would eradicate any form of disease that may arise from it.
He said, “On waste water treatment, I will say that everyone digging borehole within the Lekki axis is probably drinking what I will call ‘shit water.’
lamentor78: Look at these idiots, why not compare us with our fellow Africans first. A develop first world country like Germany is what you are comparing 4th world like Nigeria. Give this same idiot crying a political office and check him in one year, he would have bought several houses and planning to get a private jet. Is easy to criticize people in government but ask yourself are those in government aliens or Nigerians. Hausa, fulani , Yoruba , Ijaw , Kanuri ,ibo, Christian, Muslims have rule Nigeria....what has changed. The mentality of an African man is to oppress his fellow African
What ENLIGHTENMENT works are you doin, to change the mentality of Africans to stop oppressing their fellow Africans
anonimi: The often cited biography titled Madame Tinubu: Merchant and King-maker, authored by Nigerian historian Oladipo Yemitan, paints her views regarding slave trading.
On one occasion, during her final sojourn in Abeokuta, she was alleged to have sold a young boy into slavery and was accused of it. When arraigned before Ogundipe Alatise over the matter, she reportedly explained: 'I have a large house-hold and I must feed them well. I need money to do that, that's why'.
— Oladipo. Yemitan, 'Madame Tinubu: Merchant and King-maker'
Another section of Yemitan's Tinubu biography, referred to as the Amadie-Ojo Affair, captures a slave trading deal gone sour in 1853 (notably after the 1852 Treaty abolishing slavery in Lagos) wherein Tinubu tells another slave trader (Domingo Martinez) that "she would rather drown the slaves [20 in number] than sell them at a discount".
Obi that was initially opposed to Atiku’s vision for production subsidy to relieve inflation and hardship of Nigerians?
It’s not surprising that Obi was opposed to it, since he has always been against the masses and for his fellow elites who steal from us.
