Tinubu is yet to outperform OBJ. He has not even achieved 50% of what obj did in his first term

[

b]Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency have arrested a 101-year-old great-grandmother for dealing in illicit drugs. The great-grandmother, identified as Esther Ogunmabo, was arrested in Ilisan, Ogun State, with retail sachets of skunk, a strain of cannabis, weighing 90 grammes, which she claimed she sold to locals.[/b]

A statement on Sunday by the agency’s spokesman, Femi Babafemi, said the centenarian told operatives that she started engaging in illicit drug trade after her provisions shop was razed by fire.

The statement partly read, “Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency have recorded significant breakthroughs across the country’s land and maritime borders, including the arrest of a 101-year-old great-grandmother for dealing in illicit drugs.

NDLEA operatives on Saturday, August 15, 2026, arrested a 101-year-old woman, Esther Ogunmabo, in Ilisan, Ogun State, with retail sachets of skunk, a strain of cannabis, weighing 90 grams, which she claims she sells to locals.

“The centenarian told operatives that she resorted to the illicit drug trade after her provisions shop was razed by fire, adding that one of her daughters, who resides in Lagos, arranges the supply of the substance to her every four days, which she in turn sold in bits.”

Babafemi said the Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of the NDLEA, Brig. Gen. Buba Marwa (retd.), directed that the suspect be granted bail and placed on counselling because of her advanced age, while her daughter had been arrested.

PUNCH Online has not been able to speak with the suspect.

In a related development, he said NDLEA operatives in Akwa Ibom State, acting on credible intelligence, intercepted a wooden boat on the high seas on Friday, August 21, conveying illicit drugs to fishing settlements in the Republic of Cameroon.

According to him, three suspects arrested aboard the boat, which was heading to Ine Isu, Ine Mbah and Ine Ikot Itie Udung fishing ports in Cameroon, included Etima Effiong Eekpo, 29, caught with 1.120kg of skunk; Otobong Eyoh Etukudoh, 33, who had 42.060kg of skunk in his possession; and 27-year-old Kingsley Effiong John, who was found with 20 grammes of cocaine cleverly concealed inside a large wrap of edible cassava fufu, alongside 435 grammes of skunk.

“A total of 42.622kg of narcotics was recovered from the trio,” Babafemi added.

I will like to know if football giants like Brazil, Spain, England, France etc rely on governments to pay their national teams

Cannabis is not a hard drug. It shouldn't be too difficult for Nigerian government to understand this fact.

So you mean he should put furniture, electronics and other household items inside a safe??

Just one gold chain could buy those furnitures electronics whatever

A fireproof safe has a big advantage here. At least the golds, diamonds and hard currencies

I eagerly await your next post.

🇳🇬 Nigeria is currently 65 years old. Out of those 65 years:
👇
IBB - 8 years in power
Buhari - 9 years, 7 months in power
Obasanjo - 11 years, 6 months in power

These 3 men ruled Nigeria for a combined period of over 29 years out of 65.

Nigeria is what it is today majorly because of this 29 wasted years of mismanagement and misgovernance.

wolesmile:
You forgot to add Gowon's 9 years

Gowon will make it a combined period of 38 wasted years from only 4 men. SMH

You were employed to win games and trophies, not to entertain journalist at press conferences. You are just a useless coach, (a fairly good manager though). Firing you is a good riddance to bad rubbish

It is actually true. A kind of sulphuric or chemical substance odour. Mostly around alagbaka, shagari axis. It has been happening for a while now. There was a time it stopped but it is now coming off again. 👇

All join.

If it is naira millionaire, plenty plenty dey this forum na.

I no dey deceive myself, no opposition is currently strong enough to unseat Tinubu.

Atiku/Obi joint ticket would've been the perfect combo to kick Tinubu out of Aso Villa.

At least if we don't do much checkup, we should from time to time do Blood Pressure and Blood Sugar test.

eepeepook:
Millionaire no dey Nairaland.

Do you mean Naira millionaire or USD?

I came from an oil producing community in the Niger/Delta but I was born in the city, I didn't have the opportunity to visit my hometown until I was around 23 when I needed an important document from my local government of origin. That was the day I knew how powerful a surname could be. Immediately I showed the official my identity and he saw my surname, he asked other applicants to wait while he personally process my documents. He told me later that my family name is very popular and well respected in the town. This is the same surname I've once attempted to change because it has a link with an idol (god of thunder). Thank God I didn't make such mistake. Years later, I started playing politics. I couldn't speak the dialect of my people, I was like a stranger among them but they did not treat me like stranger. Once they heard my family name, they all embraced me and my children. Many opportunities have come our way today because of the family name.

Unfortunately, the news of his revival is already on many international news media. I saw it just now on BBC and Goal.com

delzbaba:
You will begin to ask yourself some questions, what is special about Osun state? is it an oil producing state? why so much emphasis on that state?

It is because this is the last election to be conducted before next year's general elections.

So many hilarious comments up here, LoL



BTW, why do people buy dogs without first checking up their parents, especially the pup's mother? I can never pay for a dog I haven't seen it's mother, and if possible the pup's father too.

I will put the cause of this outbreak in 3 words - lgnorance, Insecurity & Bad-Leadership.
👇

"Health authorities face several major challenges in trying to control transmission. One of the biggest is delayed detection. Some infected people do not report symptoms early, while others are unable to reach treatment facilities quickly because of insecurity and poor infrastructure."

I'm a layman when it comes to economy, but several times I've heard that oil subsidy removal has helped the country to save more money. How much have you saved? Why are we still borrowing heavily?

🤥

I've been trying not to delve into this controversial discussion about Jingir. But one thing I just want to single out here - Nigerian muslim faithfuls are more united than their christian brothers, and they are using this for their political advantage. Only christians fight themselves. The pentecostal will criticize the white garments, the cardinal will criticize the pentecostal etc

Nuff said

Do people still buy magazines again in this era of internet and social media?

What kind of stupid headline is this. What's the meaning of captured? Is there any big deal in watching a political interview on TV?

Her case is exceptional.
The number of women that look more robust and beautiful after marriage is far more than the opposite.

This reminds me of Ife Central, back then in my OAU days, Ajebamdele iremo ward 8 was my political base. We really run the show for iyiola those years. Politics has always been a dirty game. If you know you know.

Obviously there's no love lost. That's why they wouldn't adopt the name 'Warri'. Not all areas in the present Lagos were part of the original Lagos. Yet they all adopt the name Lagos with no fracas. But in the absence of love, there will always be a fraca.
