...Yet his concern is on Niger Junta

How many times will this make front page

Just a quick one no matter what you do don't act alone and don't show car sellers you are newbie or desperate if you have money go for Toks instead of nigeria used but you can also consider the following factors
Budget: Compare the prices of both vehicles, including any potential maintenance and repair costs. Choose the option that fits comfortably within your budget.
Features: Compare the features and amenities offered by both cars. The Lexus ES 330 might have more luxurious and premium features due to its positioning as a luxury vehicle.
Performance: Consider the engine performance and driving experience of both cars. The Lexus ES 330 might provide a slightly smoother and quieter ride due to its luxury-oriented design.
Fuel Efficiency: Check the fuel efficiency of both vehicles. The Toyota Camry tends to have good fuel economy, but the difference might not be significant.
Maintenance: Research the maintenance and repair history of both models. Check for any common issues reported by owners of each car.
Resale Value: Toyota cars, including the Camry, often have strong resale value. Lexus vehicles also tend to hold their value well. Consider how important resale value is for you.

In a time when education affordability is a crucial concern, it's encouraging to see the Kaduna governor take a step to reduce state-owned school fees. This decision not only eases the financial burden on parents and guardians but also makes education more accessible for a broader range of students. Quality education is the cornerstone of progress, and measures like this can contribute to a brighter future for the youth and the state as a whole. Kudos to the governor for prioritizing education and making positive strides toward a better educational landscape.

Iconic musician Innocent Idibia aka 2baba has confessed he literally turns green with envy when someone else gains the attention of his wife, Annie Idibia.
He shared a clip of his wife posing with some ladies and then exchanging warm pleasantries with a white man thereafter.

Possibly, the sight of his wife with the Caucasian in an affectionate embrace aroused in the 'African Queen' classic hit maker some form of jealousy which led to him baring his feelings.

With the aid of the voice over, 2baba expressed his insecurity, his desire to shield Annie's enviable traits from preying men so that she's not stolen from him.

The voice-over stated: "I get jealous when someone else has your attention. It's not as if I'm bleeding or insecure, I just don't want someone else to realise how amazing you are and for them to steal you away from me.

"I just really do not want to lose you to someone else, you mean too much to me for that to happen."

Zimbabwe-born medical doctor and activist, Arikana Chihombori-Quao's viral video which hit airwaves last week evokes the music of iconoclastic Jamaican reggae musician, Peter Tosh. The video explains the rebellion going on in the Sahel against France. In Tosh's system-bashing, anthem-of-resistance song, a call to action against the evils of colonialism and oppression, the coup in Niger Republic and France's decades of paternal oppression against French-speaking Africa gets graphic detailing.
His Mystic album, especially the track Babylon, your Queendom is falling, is pregnant with powerful lyricism that is unpretentious against colonial oppression. It calls on black people of the world to reclaim their hearts, their lands, culture, heritage and humanity from the stranglehold of colonizers. Tosh especially chose the oppressive colonial and post-colonial system that underdeveloped black people for censure. He labeled this power structure system that has enslaved and exploited black people in the world for centuries as "Mystery Babylon."

The concept of white supremacy and its Queen(King)dom is falling, Tosh sang: "Mystery Babylon, your Queendom a falling/Tumbling down/And Rahab, a Ethiopia calling..."

If you call Tosh a prophet, you would not be mistaken. As the lyrics lament white oppression, wrapped in fluid-flowing and danceable tune, Tosh addresses the systematic downfall of Babylon and how Ethiopia, regarded as the promised land of Africa, is rising in rebellion, from its ashes of oppression. After so many decades of sustenance of black people's oppression from the capitals of oppression of the world, Tosh sang, the Babylonian system is meeting its waterloo as the oppression is coming to an end. He made a biblical allusion to Rahab and then to Ethiopia, the only African country never colonized.

Rahab was the prostitute from Jericho who helped Joshua and his army in the conquest of the city of Jericho and his reference to Ethiopia was a call for the overthrow of white oppressive system in Africa.

Tosh sang effusively in the Jamaican patois with optimism that all that was stolen from Africa and taken to Babylon would be returned after the system's overthrow: "Gimme back mi gold, mi ruby an mi diamond...sent I sons and daughters from a far off... I said all those that are called of I name...Gimme back mi zebra, mi lion an mi tiger... Gimme back mi land, mi language and mi culture... I said, take back your chink, your roach and mosquito..."

He asked for repatriation of all stolen invaluable possessions which he symbolized with gold, diamonds, rubies, zebras, lions, tigers, land, language and culture, rudely and crudely stolen by stealth by white colonizers.

In the viral video, Chihombori-Quao had appeared on the Eye Gambia, alongside other commentators. She gave a present-day bite to the Tosh song, especially France and French-speaking Africa colonial and post-colonial relations. Former African Union representative to the United States from 2017 to 2019, Chihombori-Quao viewed Africa with the same lens that Tosh looked at the continent's underdevelopment. This outspoken Zimbabwean, renowned for her caustic review of the implications of the Berlin Conference in Germany in 1885, made some earth-shaking revelations that put the coup in Niger and the rebellion in the Sahel in perspective.

Chihombori-Quao is known for her rave lectures delivered on the outcome of the selfish, self-centered and haphazard partitioning of the African continent in Berlin. To her, that division is responsible for the multiplication of Africa's problems and why, in the words of Walter Rodney, Africa remains underdeveloped.

"The government of France has significant control over all their former colonies, specifically fourteen of them. When they were giving them independence, they forced them to sign a document which they called the pact for the continuation of colonization. On one hand, they say we are giving you independence which comes out to be political independence but that you have to sign this document... You are going to be independent, but you have to agree to continually be colonized. Two countries said, absolutely not, they (were) not going to sign the document. They are Mali and Guinea. What the French did was that, they entered those countries, took everything that they thought they brought into those economies, poured concrete into sewage pipes and completely devastated the two economies. They did this to let other countries know that if they (did) not sign this document, this (was) the fate that (awaited them).

"The impact (was) terrible. The pact that that those countries had to deposit 85 per cent of their bank reserves with the French Central Bank, under the control of the French Minister of Finance and should those countries wish to request some of those monies - remember they are only left with 15 per cent of their reserves - they have to submit financial statement for the country and if approved, they can only access up 20 per cent of whatever they had deposited year before as a loan at commercial interest rate. The only difference now is the 85 per cent deposits have now been lowered down to maybe 50 and 60 percent but the countries are still forced and required to deposit their bank reserves with the French Central Bank.

"Now, picture this situation: you are depositing your monies with France. Should you need some of your money, you get it as a loan at commercial interest rates. Immediately, you have credit with France, but you begin to owe France! This has been going on and continuous till this day. So, combined, the 14 countries are giving to France cash of over $500 billion every year and France takes that money and invests it in its own stock market under the French name... currently, for every 14 billion that France takes out of Africa, by the time they finish investing it in the French stock market, they realize upwards of $300 billion so you do the maths to see how much France takes out of Africa every year.

And France has the audacity to then look at African countries and call them poor. Why would poor African countries give France $500 billion year in year out? But what gets me the most is, how does the world sit back and watch this carnage take place in Africa? Where is the United Nations? This is the body that is supposed to be looking for any violation of human rights. It is my humble opinion that, singularly, what France is doing to Africa is the biggest violation of human rights. Women and children are dying of starvation, youth unemployment and these same poor countries are giving $500 billion to France. It simply does not make any sense and I don't know how the world can sit back and watch all this unfold and nobody is saying anything. It is unacceptable. It is wrong and we are simply asking France to do what is right, what is just and right with Africans," she said.

Ahmed Sekou Toure was the president of Guinea who refused to sign that pact of servitude. He rejected the French and its bid to appropriate the wealth and farmland of Guinean traditional landlords. He was famous with the lingo that "Guinea prefers poverty in freedom to riches in slavery" and argued that Africa lost its essence and future during colonization. He advocated that Africa should retaliate by cutting off ties with her former colonial masters and for clinging to the apron of the west as their puppeteers. He also voiced his distrust of other African nations.

The above Chihombori-Quao submission may sound inscrutable, horrific and frightening. Another video, which went viral recently, was of Sierra Leonean-German multi-facetted social entrepreneur, Mallence Bart-Williams. At a Ted event, she explained the chaos and crises in Africa and said that chaos in Africa is orchestrated because of the resources of Africa that are cheaply and fraudulently taken out of Africa. "A healthy and thriving Africa will not disperse its resources as freely and cheaply... which in turn may destabilize and weaken western economies established on the post-colonial free meal system" she said. Affirming France's yearly collection of foreign reserve deposit from Africa posited by Chihombori-Quao, she said France based it on "colonial debt which they force them to pay." This, she said, was affirmed by former French president Jacques Chirac who an interview said that "we have to be honest and acknowledge that the big part of the money in out banks comes precisely from the exploitation of the African continent" and that in 2008, Chirac said that without Africa, France will slide down in the ranks of third world powers."

Another expose has put the animosity against the new military rulers of Niger to the pipeline project that passes through the republic on the way from Nigeria to Europe. The uranium deposit in Niger is also the contention, a mineral that Europe and America have been stealing from Africa for decades. The resistance against the new junta, a regime that has promised to disconnect the stealing and cheap sales of is "the quest to gain back their wealth, the uranium, gold, iron, phosphate, iron and gas and this scares the west." In this quest to regain their national sovereignty, delink from being a European colony and Russia is backing French-Africa. This incenses the west and America.

This is why the Bola Tinubu-led ECOWAS's resistance to the revolution going on in Niger and other Francophone African countries is benumbing. Some have alleged that the post-colonial planting of puppeteer governments in Africa, held by the CIA, MI6 and other intelligence services, may just be the explanation. The overwhelming voices in Africa right now are that the imperialists, Peter Tosh's "Mystery Babylon," should get out of the continent. If ECOWAS does not listen to the voice of reason and continues to abet America and the west's continued servitude of Africa, they will be footnotes and flotsams of history when today's story of their people's rebellion against puppeteers is told.

General Abdourahmane Tchiani, leader of the Niger junta, has said the military takeover in his country saved Nigeria of an imminent disaster.
According to Sheik Bala Lau, Chairman of Jam'atul Izalatu Bida Waikamatu Sunnah, Tchiani said this during a meeting that a Nigerian delegation of clerics had with the junta in Niamey, Niger's capital, on Saturday.

News had reported how Islamic scholars who met President Bola Tinubu at the presidential villa in Abuja on Friday headed for Niger.

According to Sheik Lau, Tchiani claimed the coup was well intended, adding that "they struck to starve off an imminent threat that would have affected not only Niger Republic but also Nigeria".

It is unclear what the junta head meant as the statement did not quote to have gone into details.

But his claim came after the Defence Headquarters said some persons were instigating the military to seize power in Nigeria.

The Director, Defence Information, Tukur Gusau, a Brigadier-General, had said there were plots from different quarters to instigate members of Armed Forces of Nigeria to overthrow the present democratic administration being led by President Bola Tinubu.

According to him, the military would continue to perform its constitutional duties rather than plotting any coup against the present democratic administration, saying the armed forces of Nigeria would not be distracted.

"The reports calling on the military to interfere in our democracy is highly unpatriotic, wicked, and an attempt to distract the Armed Forces of Nigeria from performing its constitutional responsibilities," the senior military official said.

The team that visited Niger comprised scholars from various Islamic sects in the country.

Among them were Sheik Kabiru Gombe-Secretary, Jamatul izalatul bida waikamatul sunnah,
Sheik Yakubu Musa Hassan Katsina-Director Daawah, JIBWIS, Sheik Ibrahim Dahiru Bauchi- Rep Sheik Ibrahim Bauchi and Dr Khalid Aliya- Secretary General, Jammatul Nasril Islam.

Meet The Chagourys - The Most Powerful Foreign Family in Nigeria
Being wealthy and influential in a foreign country says a lot about the success of such a person. This is the story of a family that has not only identified with the Nigerian populace but has immersed themselves in the culture and practices of the country. The Chagourys are arguably the most powerful foreign family in Nigeria, considering their strong ties-ancestral, investment, and business-with the country. Over the years, the family has been known to contribute to the GDP of Nigeria, creating numerous job opportunities and financial support for the country.

Family History
The family history can be traced back to the early 1900s, when the family migrated to Nigeria from Lebanon. Ramez and Alice Chagoury were of Lebanese descent, but moved to the giant West African nation, and here they birthed and raised all of their children in Nigeria. Nigeria became a country they both adored, giving their children a second citizenship. Ramez and Alice gave birth to Gilbert and Ronald Chagoury, who would make their family name very famous.

Gilbert Ramez and Ronald Chagoury
Gilbert Ramez Chagoury, the Chagoury Group's founder, was born on January 8, 1946, in Lagos, Nigeria. Though a Lebanese by ancestry, he is a Nigerian by birth, as he is often described as a Nigerian-Lebanese.

Gibert was sent to Lebanon to complete his university education at the College des Freres Chretiens in Lebanon, before returning to Nigeria. According to reports, Gilbert was close friends with General Sani Abacha, the dictator of Nigeria, who supported Gilbert's commercial endeavours there. In order to protect himself from potential criminal charges, Chagoury returned to the Nigerian government approximately $300 million after Abacha's passing in 1998.

The millionaire is wed to Rose-Marie Chamchoum, a Lebanese woman with ancestry in the Niger Republic. Ramez, Gilbert-Antoine, Christopher, and Anne-Marie are the couple's four kids.

Ronald Chagoury, the younger brother of Gilbert, was also born in Nigeria on January 8, 1949. He completed his education at the College des Frères Chrétiens in Lebanon and his business studies at California State University, Long Beach in the US before returning to Nigeria, which he considers his home.

The Chagoury Group
Gilbert and Ronald had the vision to build the businesses into a self-sufficient group structure in order to sustain their competitive advantage in a world economy that was changing quickly. The Chagoury Group of Companies has thrived thanks to this solid foundation. The Chagoury business, which started in the 1970s, has grown to become the Chagoury Group, a diverse conglomerate.

With the help of developing and utilising Nigerian professionals and the Nigerian workforce, The Chagoury Group has expanded to become one of the top businesses in Africa. The organisation employs tens of thousands of Nigerians, as well as other Africans and non-Africans.

The Chagoury Group's first company was the Grands Moulins du Bénin Flour Mill, which was founded in 1971 and is located in Cotonou, Benin Republic. Every day, the mill produces 250 metric tons of wheat flour.

Construction, real estate, manufacturing, water bottling and purification, insurance, hotels, flour mills, telecommunications, IT, catering, and international financing are among the activities undertaken by the Chagoury group's subsidiaries.

Nazgul:
This is one of the reasons why despite everything people say about Abacha, he still remains one of Nigeria's best leaders for me.

During his tenure, US, Britain, France...etc, all closed down their embassies in Nigeria and left.

Abacha's children schooled here in Nigeria. Abacha himself never toured Europe and America, he ruled in Nigeria, lived in Nigeria and died in Nigeria.

It's good to see other African countries getting rid of European parasites. They don't mean well for you. All they do is come to your country, build their military base, find a way of accessing your resources and ship it back to their country whilst leaving you in abject poverty.

But the same Abacha took money to keep with European Parasites abi just dey play

Just dey play

Jokes on you son

I find it difficult to comprehend the fuss surrounding a ministerial appointment for an individual who has previously held positions as both a Minister and a Governor.

Is it considered a promotion to become a Minister after having a strong desire to be President or Vice President?

To me, it appears to be nothing more than a comfortable landing or a form of compensation in the form of a pension.

I had expected Governor Wike to take a cue from Dr. Peter Odili, who understood his own value, mission, and passion and quietly transitioned into an advisory role when he failed to become President or Vice President.

No ministerial appointment could possibly compensate Odili for the substantial funds he invested during his unsuccessful journey to Aso Rock, especially not under the incorruptible leadership of the late Umaru Yaradua.

There comes a time when one should speak up and a time when one should gracefully retire from the political stage.

Attempting a desperate bid to become a Minister under the politically astute Tinubu and his associates would likely only leadto disaster. The individuals associated with Tinubu in Lagos spare no one who tries to undermine their authority.

It would indeed be a futile pursuit to spend a considerable amount of money supporting an opposition party, only to end up as an aide accountable to those whom you once financially supported while they revered you as a political godfather.

Apart from his substantial wealth, Wike's primary desire seems to be power and control.

However, can the Tinubu-led government afford to grant Wike such blatant authority and control beyond his home state? If power and control are the only benefits to be gained, then it may be a waste of both space and time.

Instead, Wike should focus on rebuilding his party, the PDP, and prepare to face the likely presidential candidate of the APC in 2027, if that is the path the divine providence leads him on.

The APC will never serve as a platform for the Rumuepirikom strongman to establish a solid foundation for his future ambitions, beyond are curring ministerial appointment.

Perhaps, had Wike abandoned his plan to challenge Atiku in the presidential primaries of the PDP, he might have found himself in the position currently occupied by Akpabio, as the Senate President.

Wike's significant financial resources and strong alliance with the Tinubu group could have potentially changed the dynamics of electing the leadership of the National Assembly.

By humbling himself and setting aside his ego and thirst for power, running for the Senate could have placed the former governor in the prestigious position of the nation's number three leader.

However, by allowing his bruised ego to guide him, he will only receive a portion of the benefits without the full rewards.

Those who cheer and celebrate Wike's nomination into President Tinubu's cabinet might have overlooked the fact that Wike should not settle for anything less.

If he must serve in a government whose party he has been at odds with since 2014, then he undoubtedly deserves a more prominent role. The position of Secretary of Government would have been a suitable option.

It appears that Wike's celebrated appointment is no different from Amaechi, who also should have been given a role like Chief of Staff or Secretary of the Government.

However, credit must be given to Amaechi for his exceptional performance as the Transportation Minister. In the end, someone will inevitably be sacrificed for the sake of political maneuvering and power dynamics.

Despite the significant energy and resources invested in preventing Atiku from winning the election, it seems that there are no substantial new developments or achievements for the GS group to celebrate.

Despite their efforts, the desired outcomes may not have been achieved, leading to a sense of disappointment or frustration.

If you think Nigeria is where all the troubles are residing,,just try the East African Countries of Kenya,Uganda and some Southern Countries of Mozambique, Zimbabwe and now even South Africa!
They act with impunity! But If only Nigerian Leaders can just be truthful and kill Corruption in Public Places, including Labour ,Nigeria will be a True Place to be boasts of by our Youths anywhere they go!

Those places you listed are something else

Recently, a Japanese man named Toco embarked on a journey of self-transformation to become a Dog.

With a $20,000 investment, he fulfilled his lifelong dream of becoming a border collie with the aid of hyperrealistic dog costume crafted by the a Japanese company, Zeppet.
Taking 40 days to perfect his canine disguise, Toco was eager to step into the world as a dog for the very first time.

Documenting his extraordinary experience in a video, he ventured out into the streets, embracing his newfound identity.

To his delight, Toco made an unexpected connection during his stroll.
He managed to befriend some fellow canines along the way, as passers-by and their furry companions were captivated by the uncanny realism of his costume and lifelike movements.

It seemed as though they couldn't differentiate him from an actual four-legged friend.

In candid notes accompanying his unusual transformation, Toco revealed that his fascination with becoming a dog had been an enduring part of his life since childhood.

Former US president Donald Trump said Friday he would not end his run for the White House if he were convicted and sentenced in any of the criminal investigations mounting against him.

The 77-year-old Republican frontrunner was asked about his reaction to the federal and state charges he faces as he bids for a second term in 2024, a day after federal prosecutors added three felony counts to the indictment against him over his handling of classified documents.

Asked by right wing radio host John Fredericks if being sentenced would stop his campaign, he quickly responded: "Not at all. There's nothing in the Constitution to say that it could."

"And even the radical left crazies are saying not at all, that wouldn't stop (me) - and it wouldn't stop me either. These people are sick. What they are doing is absolutely horrible," he added.

Trump said previous presidents including Barack Obama and George W. Bush "took documents," suggesting falsely that his predecessors had engaged in conduct similar to the alleged crimes for which he has been charged.

"Nobody has ever gone through this. This is crazy," he added, mischaracterizing the law and a previous civil dispute over presidential documents to argue that he had done nothing wrong.

The twice-impeached former president was first indicted in the classified documents case last month, accused of endangering national security by holding on to top secret nuclear and defense information after leaving the White House.
