Someone said It's impossible explaining an ocean to a frog who has lived all its life in a pond. 6m is 4k dollars. Not enough to chamge ur life forever if u are starting from scratch

The reality is that they will be applicants to pick up the offer in Nigeria. Without prejudice to any sufficiency or otherwise of the amount involved, surrogacy should not be a get rich quick scheme or aeans to financial independence.

There are people for whom 6 million naira is life changing even in the Nigeria of today. There are women who are single mothers today whom their baby fathers never gave or spent on them even 100K. There are girls and ladies who have repeatedly engaged in abortion with irresponsible boyfirends. There are also couples or mothers selling their babies for far less. I have read news where a baby was sold for 300K to 500K.

Are you a Pilot? Or maybe a soldier of the Nigerian Airforce? If you are none of those, you don't know what the hell you are saying

The Nigerian Airforce advised the state to get that and that was exactly what they got.

You saw the video of the Airforce officers yesterday or you didn't? They are the ones who will fly it and handle it as the state cannot. So whatever they says,the state follow

So abeg say something else or go and sleep.

Have you read reports that Boko Haram and ISWAP are using more sophisticated gadgets than our military? If our military were so competent, would they not have routed Boko Haram and ISWAP since?

Of course the Airforce will recommend aircraft because it would be under their control. It is typical Nigerian self serving behavior. A drone does not need such specialized skill to operate and the Airforce may not be so relevant in that scheme.

It is cheaper and more effective to buy long range drones. The maintenance and operational costs will be cheaper than an aircraft that requires a dedicated pilot, hangar space, fueling and other issues.

A drone can fly almost at all times, take pictures and record videos and fly at a lower altitude than an aircraft.

The risk is that the officers might shoot innocent people and then plant guns on them and justify it.

Extra-judicial killing is wrong in any guise as it gives excuses to corrupt people in the police

IGP Disu has no basis in law to issue such order. Any order for extra-judicial killing is illegal. The attempt to coin it around Force Order which is not a law but internal policy is wrong.

Yes, if you are under real threat, someone trying to shoot at you or actually shooting at you, you an respond with deadly fire. But to say shoot at sight anyone carrying illegal arms, how do you know it is illegal? Which Court convicted the person of illegal firearms possession? And even if a Court convicted the person, is the punishment death sentence?

Pierocash:
See her running mouth because of ordinary 35m naira that can vanish within a step of wrong business move, she suddenly abandoned her marriage because she received 35m.

We keep telling men, that 95% of naija women don't value marriage, they only use it as a vehicle to escape poverty. If it were the man that had that money, he uses it to better his family, showers his wife with gifts and give her more comfort. But the other way round, marriage scattered.

You made 35m, and all your plans never included your husband, it was just you, and you nothing more. The man now felt isolated, asked you about his own place in your plan, you flaired up, moved out , and filed for divorce, all because of money. Shameless gold diggers

Ideally the woman should have considered her husband and the nuclear family as a whole. It is excusable that the plan to buy land and develop herself indirectly helps the family.

However when you read the whole story and the fact that almost all items in the house were bought by her while the husband earned more, then her thinking becomes reasonable. If a husband is not committed to the family, then he cannot expect the wife to be committed to the family.

A husband arguing submission should first demonstrate love. It is arguable the man never loved the woman and the family in the first instance.

Chucks13:
Police release their child body to them is it by force to do autopsy? Her family say give dem their daughter body then give it to them or yu wan chop am or wat?

The man is misinformed. His daughter is not his property. That is why if he were to kill her himself, he has a case to answer. So whoever killed her if the investigation reveals murder, the case is State versus the killer or killers. It is not Mr. Habila or Habila family versus the killers. So he should go and sit down.

It is part of the lack of education about the law that our Police have. Someone commits a crime, for example rape, and then the Police is asking the complainant if he wants to press the case or not. That is nonsense. A crime is different from a civil wrong or tort in law. A crime is an offense against the State. It is not a personal offense that you can forgive except you choose not to report it.

AMINDA:
Lol. Someone is getting paranoid already. Honourable Minister of Affidavits of Particular Concern. He should tell the boyfriend to do his own affidavit.

Police have not concluded their investigation and persons of interest or interested parties are swearing affidavits up and down. The father of the dead girl swore affidavit. The friend swore affidavit. God knows how many people around that have been compelled to swear affidavits. It appears someone is trying to lock them in on a particular account or story at the risk of perjury so they don't change the story later. Someone definitely is trying to interfere with Police investigation in the matter.

They Presented The Girls As If They Are Runs Girls, These People Were Inside The Plane With Me- Umahi

Minister of Works, Senator David Umahi has expressed his displeasure over the portrayal of Mary Habila and her colleague who were on official medical duty at his residence as runs girls.

Speaking on Symfoni TV, Umahi said, "I don't want to dwell on it too much, because I'm mourning, it is like losing a daughter. And I laugh when they call her a physiotherapist. They presented these girls as if they were runs girls. These people were inside the plane with me and my immediate staff. We flew together. It is not as if they even came separately. We all flew together to Lagos. And this was not the first time," he said.

Sen. Umahi also revealed details of Mary's final hours, based on an account provided by her boyfriend.

He alleged that the boyfriend said that while in Lagos for a conference, Mary called him to say she was bleeding from the nose.

According to him, Mary's boyfriend advised her to report to her supervisor, knowing the supervisor would insist she seek medical attention but Mary reportedly did not want to be a burden, and instead looked for a nearby hospital on her own.

Umahi said he has since asked the police to retrieve her call log so investigators can establish exactly what was said in her last conversation with her boyfriend.

Umatilla, it is not you that will tell the Police to do their job or how to do their job. When you give the impression you are directing them on how to do their job and giving them orders, the implication is that you are controlling the outcome.

Beyond medical attention for the victims of the kidnapping, there is need for psychological therapy considering g the horrors they have experienced, particularly the little children witnessing beheading and murder.

Actions like this shows that the govt won't fight terrorism, infact it shows that govt has a hand in terrorism and is trying to silence people that reveal govt's complicity in terrorism 💔😡

Don't be hasty in judgment. Let the man produce evidence of the State Government sponsoring bandits on Hajj first. Anyone that makes a public allegation should be able to support it with facts.

LoveyouLord:
The SCUML Cert is real. I even checked it in EFCC website now. I always avoid ponzi schemes but believed in this one because of their EFCC certificate because I know what the certificate entails and what I takes before getting that certificate from EFCC, so its either EFCC is working with them to scam Nigerians or they do the work that makes us believe the certificate is meant to prevent crime

SCUML is the Special Control Unit Against Money Laundering, a department under the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) responsible for registering, regulating, and monitoring Designated Non-Financial Businesses and Professions (DNFBPs) in Nigeria to combat money laundering and terrorism financing.

The essence of the SCUML Certificate is to show the comoany has registered with EFCC and is under obligation to report transactions above certain limit to assist the foght against money laundering and terrorism financing. A SCUML Certificate is not evidence of official registration to allow anyone to run investment schemes or collect deposits from people.

If anyone is marketing investment and securities to you, ask for evidence of registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and then verify accordingly. If they are not registered with SEC or CBN and they are collecting deposits and marketing investments, then you are on your own if you listen to them.

Says someone who is queueing up to buy a litre of petrol at ₦5,000

The last major structural scarcity-driven national gridlock where fuel was physically unavailable occurred in September 2024.During that crisis, NNPCL officially hiked the price from ₦617 per litre up to ₦897 per litre. Because of the acute shortage at the time, desperate motorists queued for days or bought from independent black-market vendors for anywhere between ₦1,000 and ₦1,200 per litre.
Verifiable Source: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn49d1zwz8wo

Before the September 2024 scarcity, bottleneck events occurred between April/May and July/August 2024 but prices peaked at between ₦1,000 and ₦1,200 per litre and not above. Never anywhere near the ₦5,000 per litre you claim.

Dangote came on board on 15th September 2024 and upon its initial direct sales, prices hovered between ₦899 and ₦970 per litre, which is slightly above the price hike by NNPCL. In December 2025, Dangote temporarily crashed the gantry price down to ₦699 per litre to force competition against fuel importers.

So please provide sources for your comment except it came from your need to justify your pay as a hired keyboard warrior.

Tolumiide:
Now's the time to reduce price, they're using nail to scratch it

I have not seen any positive benefits to Nigerians from Dangote's entry into the Petroleum Refining business expect increments in his net worth on the Forbes list. His cement business led to Nigeria s paying higher than usual for cement and that is about repeating itself on the Petrol issue.

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2026/07/fake-agency-dg-fraudulently-opened-cbn-account-presidency/

Some Nigerians may be gullible but not all of them. The Presidency and Chief of Staff are straining the strands of credulity to explain that the Agency operated by Adeyemi is unknown to them and without official backing. The facts that accounts were opened at CBN, office was secured at Federal Secretariat and budgetary provisions were made for the Agency or Commission as it may be clearly raises the bar against the Presidency's arguments.

And to say that in a criminal case of that nature filed in November 2025, more than 7 months ago just got scheduled to late July 2026 for hearing is plain unbelievable.

Righteousness2:
The pastor is on point.
But I will rather put it this way,

If Money is your Motivation in your service to GOD, You are a Joker.

The saying is correct, but it does not lie in his mouth to say such. Does he himself earn honest and reasonable wages from his job as Pastor or he see the church income as belonging to him? A Pastor buying Tesla from church income and even displaying same on Social Media cannot tell a church h drummer to forfeit being paid. Both are driven by materialism and content to get their benefits in this world.

If u are doing fun and increasing body count....I pity u ...ur situation go worse pass say u invest emotions

Dating does not equate to a relationship involving sex. Sex also comes with emotions. It is mot just a pure mechanical action, and it's involvement clouds judgment and is seen also as a form of investment, particularly by women. So when talking about dating for fun, it is about having relationship without clouding it with any long term expectations or investments that will make it difficult for you to walk away.

Sugarboyy:
You know why most times I don't even bother to take most Nigerians seriously? Because they will always complain. They will always find negatives in every positives but ask them the solution, just like Peter Obi, they will tell you that they don't want to reel out the solutions they have in mind so that it won't be stolen. Before now, if you had asked this writer to come up with comprehensive plans to reform and reposition the NYSC, he would say the scheme is better the way it's right now. But here he is looking for negatives from this well thought out plans from the FG to reform reposition the NYSC.
Tinubu is a reformer and he is already reforming Alot of abnormalities that previous presidents refused or failed to do just because they were scared of losing votes (mostly votes from northerners)

It is a fallacy of reasoning to say that because someone cannot come up with his own solution to an issue, he should not critique any proposed solution. If science had been working like that, we wouldn't be where we are today. Peer review would be pointless and you wouldn't be holding the phone in your hand to type what you did.

If your proposed solution or idea cannot face critiquing then keep it to yourself. It will be a big nistto adopt such idea. And that is one of the reasons we have lots of problems.

Half baked ideas and solutions proposed by those near the corridors of power in a patronage system that sees critiquing as opposition and therefore mandates silence. If someone came through the First Lady or the SSG to propose an idea, who would want to expose the flaws and not risk the wrath of the promoters? That is how bad, ineffective and inefficient projects and solutions get dumped down on the masses who end up being the lovers.

That was not how he left Israeli custody. He was released in January 2026, but suffered a life-threatening brain hemorrhage just two days after walking free. He underwent complex emergency brain operations, which required the removal of part of his skull. He however alleges that the conditions he was subjected to while being held by the Israelis led to his medical crisis.

yarimo:
This is very commendable from the federal high court lokoja .

Not commendable at all. The Court already decided the matter on merits and is functus officio on the matter. The excuse of a necessity party seeking fair hearing is flimsy as a basis to declare the prior judgment a nullify. PMP is not a registered political party known to INEC and any dispute on logo would at best be a trademark issue for which PMP is free to sue. Dispute over logo cannot be a basis for deregistration of a political party when PMP has not even established legal ownership of the logo via trademark. This is just another instance of judicial rascality thinly veiled as legitimate action.

I cannot imagine how abusing a baby doll is expected to relief stress. These are not dolls of animals, shapes or aliens but babies, human babies. It is just plain crazy to think of the mindset behind such a thing.

dominique:
The case has been ongoing for over 5 years since the doctor passed away in 2020. Helen you did yourself dirty, as a lawyer you should know better. The court will always recognise the legally married wife no matter how long they've been separated.

The couple separate for years without formal divorce is likely an indication that there was no bitterness and acrimony and both didn't have objectives of engaging with another partner at the time. Most likely grew apart and the man left to his ways.

Then Helen came in, quite beautiful young lady who is also married but engaged with the separated Dr. Ajayi. Because at the initial stage, Helen herself was still married, she cannot push the man for divorce and it appeared Ajayi's wife left them at peace. When something is not a pain, most will forget about it. That is what likely happened until the man died.

The presence of a will in favour of Helen and her children appear on the surface to matter and show the intention of the dead man. But the Marriage Act as a statute overrides it. The dead man cannot disinterest the legal wife and children.

It’s Nigerians vs Tinubu and APC.

The tinubulation is just too unbearable for the vast majority of the people.

There is no doubt that most Nigerians are in pains. I use most be ause to be honest, there are some that are benefiting in the current situation.

However, saying it is Nigerians vs Tinubu and APC is a mischaracterization that is likely to lead nowhere based on the options or alternatives that Nigerians have to choose from. It is unfortunate that Nigerians are hamstrung in being able to choose a leader that is for the people, with the genuine interest of the people at heart a dnis not a product of the corrupt system with enough baggage to make any difference.

Is it Atiku, who is a product of the system, whose rise to wealth as a customs officer raises questions and who is ready to wine and dine with any party without regard to principles all in a bid to achieve his personal ambition of become President and fulfil the prophecy of his marabouts?

Or is it Obi, another product of the system catapulted to wealth under the patronage system of the military era, whose stewardship of Anambra failed to bestow any lasting positive legacies upon the State, a man whose association with parties is not by loyalty to a cause or ideology but as a vehicle to achieve power and who is not a team player or consistent builder of systems and people?

When I see people shouting g that Obi is the best choice we have and I see him masquerading as the messiah that deep inside, he knows he is not, I see another Buhari and weep for Nigeria.

It is widely known own that for some high quality awards like Nobel Prize, there are years that some categories of awards may not be given because there is no one qualified enough and the award will mot be given for any other reason. Hmm... Fellow Nigerians, our messiah appears to be yet unborn.

Cherrybae:
ADC should quote for us the relevant sections of the construction which the plaintiffs based their arguments.

Nigerians wants to read the relevant sections and not what they wrote Above


FTC for the first time.

First, when a Superior Court had issued an order staying proceedings, the Federal High Court has no justification for continuing to deliver judgment on the matter.

Secondly, the provisions of Section 225 of the Electoral Act that the judgment cited only grants INEC the power to deregister parties that do not meet the requirements. Thus the deregistration is at the discretion of INEC. The law says "shall have the power to deregister for failure to comply" not that it "shall deregister for failure to comply.

If INEC has not exercised the power by deregistering any party, the Court cannot compel or force INEC to do so.

Penguin2:
This is a very straightforward case. It won’t survive at Appeal.

What I find confounding is that Justice Lifu is no longer pretending about how sold out he is to injustice and in doing the bidding of Wike and APC.

It’s so so annoying and embarrassing

The provisions of Section 225 of the Electoral Act grants INEC the power to deregister political parties for not meeting some requirements. It does not mandate INEC to deregister them. It is at the discretion of INEC to exercise the power. That much should have been clear to Justice Lifu before he engaged in judicial rascality to mandate INEC to deregister. Such judgments can only bring the judiciary into disrepute.

Gotocourt:
Baba sope dirty politricks, this is what will finally bury APC 📌

Note that I am not defending any lack of i ternal democracy her, but to be honest, how many political parties in Nigeria really conduct primaries on a free and fair winner basis? Were Abubakar Atiku, Peter Obi and other presidential candidates in other parties for example elected by open, free and fair primaries or internal politicking and consensus arrangements? All the stepping down here and there, are they purely voluntary or negotiated?

The problem is that most of our politicians across parties always like plating politics of loyalty and caucus. When the Governor or Presidebt is the automatic leader of the party and funding matters, it is not far from telling who calls the tunes for the piper.

By God's grace, all evil doers and collaborators will be exposed and face justice.

It is not arresting them that matters. It is what happens to them afterwards that will serve as deterrent or encouragement for the evil doers.

Omowale2023:
You are encouraging bad behavior. Did Peter start his relationship with God on pretence, lies and falsehoods?

I am not encouraging bad behavior. I never said what she did was good. But to err is human. That is why despite decreeing that every soul that sinneth shall die, God did not condemn you to die without giving the option of redemption. There are people who turned out good today that started on a bad footing many years back. Eagerness to cast the first stone is not a sign of righteousness. I advised that the guy seek for God's guidance on the matter but you already concluded on final condemnation of the young woman. Are you wiser than God or you can envisage what God's response would be?

Kuginzi:
Why is it that it is after Importers Receive New Cargos?

If that's the case, I wish FG grant import licences to marketers for the importation of petroleum products, Fuel price will reduce automatically

Dangote is not sincere. He is trying to take Nigerians for a ride and whipping up sentiments that importation licenses affect local production and trying to block them. Meanwhile he wants to be fleecing us all with higher prices.

The Goverment should allow importation. If Dangote is serious, his prices should be the one discouraging importation and not Government policy.

Omowale2023:
A person lied to you she's a virgin and she aborted a baby without telling you. What other things is she lying about?
And you should pray as a Christian? For what exactly? Directions about a relationship she built on falsehood?
No nah...... it isn't making sense

Should Christ have continued with Peter after he denied him thrice? Is Rahab the harlot qualified to be in the ancestral lineage of Jesus? Or Ruth the Moabitess, who is from a tribe or group that God had warned the Israelites against marrying? The long and short is that human wisdom has its limits. Some of the people that end up being very loyal started on the wrong footing. It is never pointless asking God.
