Recall that the Executive Governor of Osun State, Ademola Adeleke, has explained the reasons behind his deep passion and love for dancing.

Adeleke explained that he loves dancing because it brings him joy.

Speaking further on his love for dancing, Adeleke highlighted that while dancing brings him immense happiness, his greater fulfilment comes from delivering the dividends of democracy to the people of Osun.

He wrote, “Dancing gives me joy, but delivering on my electoral promises and providing the dividends of democracy to the good people of Osun gives me even greater joy. Rehabilitation of primary health centers is ongoing in at least 200 out of 332 wards, and road construction is progressing in every Local Government!”

Gov.Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State should be commended for his clampdown on the self-styled native doctors whose utterances and misdeeds pervert our African traditional religion and mislead young and undiscerning people into committing heinous crimes. Sadly, in Anambra State, our African traditional religion is being put to bad use by worshippers of African traditional religion, among whom are native doctors or medicine men.

But what is religion? In simple parlance, religion is defined as the way by which we try to reach our God or gods. And each religion has its own doctrinal teachings and form of worship. In today’s world, we have these types of religion, namely Shintoism, Hinduism, Taoism, Confucianism, Islam, Christianity, and others. And in Nigeria, Islam, Christianity, and the African traditional religion are the predominant religions.

However, the African traditional religion has been in existence in Nigeria before Islam and Christianity – Abrahamic faiths, brought to us. Our people’s embrace of Christianity did not lead to the obliteration of the African traditional religion, however. But people are still converting to Christianity from our African traditional religion.

Now, in Igboland, of which Anambra State is a part, people who practice the African traditional religion are believed to be practitioners of idolatory as carved wooden objects serve as intermediaries between them and their gods. Worship of ancestors is part of the religious practice embedded in the African traditional religion, too. The worshippers do pour libation to their gods and invoke the names of their departed ancestors for protection and blessings. The form of religious worship which is peculiar to the African traditional religion is incantatory chants.

More so, most native doctors or medicine men are known to be the custodians of our traditional religion. They are well-schooled in Igbo cosmology. And they are believed to be clairvoyant,and with mystical powers which make people visit them for divination. People whose health conditions defy orthodox therapies visit them for alternative treatments, too.

But now, in Anambra State, the native doctors are perverting the practice of African traditional religion to realize their selfish and pecuniary goals. For example, they brazenly claim that they have charms and amulets, which can make streetwalkers thrive in their despicable and abominable trade of prostitution. Armed robbers visit them for spiritual fortifications, which will ward off bullets from them, too. And the native doctors are covertly boasting that they can prepare charms for people to become stupendously rich.

But what gave rise to people’s embrace of money-making rituals is the erosion of family values among us. Poor but honest people are butts of joke in our society while rich people are lionized and praised to high heavens. So it can be seen that a nexus exists between the upsurge in money-making rituals in our society and our societal values. Our possession of wealth is the index of our success, which informed people’s desperation to acquire money at any cost.

Visiting native doctors for money-making rituals is the fad among young people, now. Accompanied by medicine men, young people are frequenting rivers to take a dip in them and make sacrifices so as to become rich.

Consequently, the reprehensible practice of money-making ritual has gained a foothold in Anambra State. And the claims and postulations of the medicine men that their fetish practices can make people become rich are being sewn onto the tapestry of the African traditional religion. So the onus is on the native doctors to prove that their practice is benign, and not a smokescreen or ruse for fleecing desperate people of their hard-earned money.

But the deeds, which the native doctors perform, have negative impacts on us all. One of the corollaries of their acts is the pollution of our waters-ponds, lakes, and rivers- with sacrifices, which are made of animal offals and innings, yams, and other smelly things. They spoil the aesthetic of our environment by placing their unsightly sacrifices on road intersections, too. Stench oozes from the decomposition of their sacrifices with negative implications for our health.

But the more worrisome implication of young people’s resort to money-making rituals is that it leads them to abduct and kill other people for money-making rituals. And it induces laziness as they perceive the perpetration of fetish practices as a short way to amass wealth. Instead of learning trade or acquiring tertiary education, which will make them become financially independent in the future, they roam about in search of native doctors.

So Gov. Soludo deserves kudos for his clampdown on the self-styled and evil-minded native doctors whose utterances and doings pervert our African traditional religion and mislead young and undiscerning people into embracing criminal life-styles.

All Yoruba senator should be removed from the house and watch corruption die

Senate President Godswill Akpabio says lawmakers who reclaimed their electoral mandate through the courts are part of the problem of the upper legislative chamber.

Akpabio spoke on Tuesday while announcing that Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, lawmaker representing Kogi central, would face disciplinary action over her outburst regarding seat reallocation.


The lawmaker had on February 20 disrupted plenary by rejecting her assigned seat, defying Akpabio’s order and repeatedly raising a point of order despite being overruled.


During plenary on February 25, Akpabio described the altercation as stemming from a lack of understanding of senate guidelines and directed the national assembly management to organise periodic orientation for senators.


“I think part of the problem is when people come from court… court-declared senators; they missed the orientation,” the senate president said.

“The management of the national assembly is hereby ordered to organise periodic orientation, particularly for senators who are midstreamers, who came midstream and did not start when their colleagues started.


“I remember that this particular senator (Natasha), on the day she was sworn in, raised her hand to speak. I was scared, but I had to recognise her, because I was saying we just gave her the rule book.


“Part of what we give to you when you are sworn in is the standing order of the senate. I asked if she opened the rule book to know what to say, but she made a contribution on that day. I think two days later she brought a motion.


“There is nothing wrong in being vibrant, but there is a lot wrong when you don’t know anything about the procedure.”



Akpoti-Uduaghan has filed a N100 billion defamation suit against Akpabio.


In the suit filed at the federal capital territory (FCT) high court, Akpoti-Uduaghan alleged that Akpabio and Mfon Patrick, his legislative aide, made defamatory comments against her.

The Kogi lawmaker asked the court to compel the respondents to withdraw the defamatory comments and apologise to her in a national newspaper.

In February 2023, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Abubakar Sadiku-Ohere of the All Progressives Congress (APC) winner of the Kogi central senatorial district election.

Not satisfied with the outcome of the polls, Akpoti-Uduaghan filed a petition seeking to nullify the election over “irregularities”.


The national assembly petitions tribunal upheld the prayers of the PDP candidate and nullified Sadiku-Ohere’s election.

The court of appeal in Abuja later affirmed Akpoti-Uduaghan as winner of the election.


In November 2023, she was sworn in as the senator representing Kogi central.

Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, who represents the Kogi Central Senator will now face senate disciplinary panel over her seat reallocation outburst in the red chamber.

The Senate President Godswill Akpabio announced this on the floor of the Senate, saying a motion to that regard has referred the matter to its Ethics, Code of Conduct and Public Petitions committee.

Recall that the controversy began when Akpoti-Uduaghan’s seat was reassigned within the Senate chamber without her consent.

The Kogi senator was moved from her original position in the minority section to the last row, a change she resisted.



Her refusal to comply with the arrangement was deemed a violation of Senate rules.

However, Akpabio said Akpoti-Uduaghan will now face disciplinary panel, which will then to revert back to the chamber after investigation.

The Senate President said: “There’s a motion before us that we should refer the entirety of the saga to our Ethics, Code of Conduct and Public Petitions, and then to revert back to us. But let me just read this for the record, even the first time the issue came up here our distinguished sister was not even speaking from her seat. And that was, that was when we tried to call her to order.”

APC Leaders pass vote of confidence on President Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu presided over the national caucus meeting of the All Progressives Congress at the State House Conference Centre, Abuja.

It is his first meeting of this nature since assuming the presidency 20 months ago.

However, journalists were not allowed into the main hall.

In 2024, the two crucial sessions, earlier scheduled for September 11 and 12 in Abuja, respectively, were called off.

Although the party did not state the reasons for the postponement, the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Felix Morka, affirmed that a new date would be announced.

Morocco’s Ambassador to Nigeria, Moha Tagma, announced plans to construct a new embassy in Abuja during his meeting with Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike on Thursday, signaling a new inflection point in the deepening diplomatic rapport between the two countries.

“We have now signed a contract with the company that will construct the building, and we are waiting for the facilities that the FCT will provide for us in the area allocated to us for the project,” Tagma disclosed during the visit.

The ambassador articulated the desire to expand collaboration beyond federal government relations. “As you know, for many years now, our relationship is very, very excellent, and we want to develop this relationship not only at the level of the federal government but also with your territory,” he stated.

Tagma projected a vision of deeper integration. Moroccan citizens in Abuja “have considered themselves citizens of Abuja, describing it as very beautiful and one of the best capital cities in Africa,” he said.

The ambassador extended a formal invitation to Minister Wike to visit Rabat. “I want to invite you officially to Morocco. I will transmit to you the official invitation and I hope that you can pay this visit to Morocco as soon as possible. We will be very happy to receive you in Morocco, to meet your counterpart in our capital city and many members of the government of Morocco,” he declared.

Gasperini brushed off the backlash against his comments while addressing a press conference on Saturday, pointing out similarities to an incident in Udinese’s 1-0 Serie A win over Lecce on Friday where Lorenzo Lucca scored a penalty despite not being the designated taker.

“It had an extraordinary impact, everything that came afterwards … mine was not meant to be an offensive sentence,” Gasperini said. “Yesterday in Udinese-Lecce we had what could have been a drama, luckily there were guys who let it go. I would have liked a strong player like Lookman to have made a gesture towards De Ketelaere saying: ‘Come on, keep the ball, put it in.’

“He can become a penalty taker, that would be an additional goal-scoring ability … I always speak in front of the whole team, it has never touched the club. He felt offended, I didn’t want to offend anyone.”

Controversial Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has been arraigned and granted N2 million bail by a Magistrate Court in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital, over an alleged assault on government officials.

The singer faced a five-count charge before the Isabo Magistrate Court in Abeokuta, which included conspiracy, assault, obstruction, and conduct likely to cause harm, with allegations that he and his associates were armed with cutlasses and guns. However, Portable pleaded not guilty.

Okonkwo, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress APC is vying for the party’s ticket ahead of the November 8 governorship election.

Lamenting that the state governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo is incapable of tackling insecurity, Okonkwo accused the governor of trying to undermine him, saying Soludo has become jittery since he indicated interest to fly the APC flag.

Okonkwo spoke on Wednesday in Abuja when the Anambra Coalition for Progressive Change presented him the APC Governorship Nomination and Expression of Interest forms which they had purchased for him.

“The issue of security, the issue of almost zero economic activities that these people will never let me go on this journey by myself.

“There is no more night life in Anambra. 6pm everywhere is shut down. Nightlife contributes 50 percent to the economy.

“Since he (Soludo) has been calling the people to jettison the so-called sit at home, nobody has listened to him. The louder his call,the further the people go away.

“We are aware of all the moves being made in Abuja here, huge amounts of money being thrown around just to ensure that my humble self do not get the ticket of the party because he is very much afraid, not only to meet me in the campaigns, but of even squaring up with me on the election day”, he alleged.

A Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos, has confirmed that the arrest warrant for Mr. Ezekiel Onyedikachi, also known as Eezee, a former manager of gospel singer Mercy Chinwo, accused of fraudulently converting funds, is still valid.

Presiding over the case, Justice Alexander Owoeye upheld the warrant while adjourning the hearing of the criminal charges brought against Onyedikachi.

The court had initially granted the arrest warrant on January 16, following an ex-parte application filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Lagos House of assembly on fire🔥

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN9u9PT8bos

The Assembly should be allowed to resolve the leadership problem through due process.

A disturbing disquiet now surrounds the Lagos State House of Assembly that was yesterday cordoned off by operatives of the Directorate of State Services (DSS) with unclear orders. Dressed in black jackets and helmets and armed, these operatives struggled with the workers in disgraceful videos that have gone viral. We call on President Bola Tinubu, whose name is being frequently dropped by some troublemakers in the state, to call the DSS to order. On no account should there be a breakdown of law and order in Lagos State just because an unpopular Speaker was removed by his colleagues.


While the leadership change was in accordance with the prescribed constitutional requirements, drafting security agents to barricade the assembly and disrupting its legitimate functions is off the books. It is also political bad manners for Mudashiru Obasa to insist on his reinstatement as a precondition to his returning to normal House duties. In the event that he feels wronged by the process of removal, the proper thing to do, especially by a lawmaker, is a recourse to due process of either the House or the Courts.

Deep submission
