The business is very lucrative!
Waziri Atiku is not serious a bit, despite the sign for him to resign from political contest and support a younger candidate,but it seems he wants to contest again in 2027, I like Atiku but his desperation is the issue with him,he messed up in 2015 by rocking the re-election bid of Jonathan, he would have been the candidate of PDP in 2019 and Buhari wouldn't have been in picture in 2015, the rest is history
MikoB: Tinunu and Ganduje dissapointed Akeredolu by not allowing him to impeach this guy, he has proven not to be a loyal deputy, imagine him celebrating and congratulating someone for the swearing in...

ogododo: The president made the request through a letter to the Senate, read during the plenary by the Senate President, GodsWill Akpabio, on Tuesday, noting that the fund was to execute critical projects in different sectors.
The President Bola Tinubu-led administration has sought the approval of the Nigerian Senate for $8.6billion and €100million borrowing plan.
The president made the request through a letter to the Senate, read during the plenary by the Senate President, GodsWill Akpabio, on Tuesday, noting that the fund was to execute critical projects in different sectors.
The request was said to be part of the federal government 2022-2024 external borrowing plan approved by former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, according to the letter.
Tinubu explained that the projects to be funded with the loan cuts across different sectors of the economy, and were selected based on economic evaluation and the expected contribution to the country’s development.
The letter reads in part;, “I write in respect of the above subject and to submit the attached the federal government 2022-2024 external borrowing plan for consideration and early approval of the National Assembly to ensure prompt implementation of the projects.
“The Senate may wish to note that the past administration approved a 2022-2024 borrowing plan by the federal executive council (FEC) held on May 15, 2023.
“The project cuts across all sectors, with specific emphasis on infrastructure, agriculture, health, water supply, roads, security, and employment generation as well as financial management reforms.
“Consequently, the required approval is in the sum of $8,699,168,559 and €100 million.
“I would like to underscore the fact that the projects and programmes in the borrowing plan were selected based on economic evaluations as well as the expected contribution to the social economic development of the country, including employment generation, and skills acquisition.
“Given the nature of these facilities, and the need to return the country to normalcy it has become necessary for the Senate to consider and approve the 2022- 2024 external abridged borrowing plan to enable the government deliver its responsibility to Nigerians.”
In August, the National Assembly approved President Tinubu’s request for over $800 million loan to finance the National Social Safety Network Programme.
The National Assembly had also approved the 2022 Supplementary Appropriations Act of N819 million “for the provision of Palliatives to Nigerians to cushion the effect of fuel subsidy removal”.
Kobojunkie: Ok naw! The Radio station should demand the man go get a legit fertility test done to counter the woman's claim.
will a man knows that he can't perform in bed at all and proceed to conduct DNA test? Toyin is shameless, having sexual intercourse is different from fertility quite frankly but this woman needed not speak a word until second DNA proposed is done to unravel the mystery!
fergie001: Excerpts of an interview with Festus Osifo, President of the Trade Union Congress on AriseTV.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdF41xP8qI0 Interviewer: There is a standing Court injunction stopping you from embarking on any strike and if you do, you will be in contempt of Court, why did you choose to ignore it?
Osifo: I think the first person that will be in contempt of the Court is the Attorney-General himself because as you could see severally even in this dispensation, you could even see the case of Emefiele for example, you have heard when the Court said you should release him, the DSS should release him, but No.
We are copying what the Federal Government is doing, that is No 1.
No 2; as at today, I don't have a copy of the Service. I saw it on Television, and anybody could go on TV and say anything. Perhaps, which Courts are we talking about? Is it the same Court that was described by the retired Justice of the Supreme Court (Dattijo)? Who owns the Court? The same Federal Government owns the Court.
You cannot continuously take black market injunctions to cripple labour. Before you do that, you have to arrest the entire Nigeria workers and we are ready for it.
Interviewer: Do you as leaders expect to be charged to Court for contempt?
Osifo: I mean I don't have any Service, there is no proof of Service and so if you want to charge us to Court, we are here. We are not running away, Nigeria is our own. We will fight for the soul of this Country.
FG is extremely and disdainfully WEAK!!! NOTHING TO ADD
it's purely political, Ajaero should be treated as economic saboteur, only a meek govt will look idly and allow political opponents cripple the economy, want to see how they plan to succeed on this disruption
it's purely over kill, Ajaero should be treated as economic saboteur, only a meek govt will look idly and allow political opponents cripple the economy, want to see how they plan to succeed on this disruption
ochejoseph: Words On Marble: Key Quotes From H.E Atiku Abubakar Press Conference
Those who stole the 2023 Presidential elections and the criminals in legal robes who legitimized their criminality have been waiting for a response and they got their response this morning served hot by the former Vice President and Presidential candidate of the People's Democratic Party.
Here are 10 top quotes from today's press conference by H.E Atiku Abubakar.
"If the Supreme Court, the highest court in the land, implies by its judgment that crime is good and should be rewarded, then Nigeria has lost and the country is doomed irrespective of who occupies the Presidential seat"- Atiku Abubakar
"I always chose freedom over servitude, whatever the personal discomforts my choice entails" - Atiku Abubakar
"A referee cannot be allowed to set the rules for the game only to change or ignore them when one side has scored a goal or is about to win the match" - Atiku Abubakar
"The burden of proving that a document submitted to INEC is forged should not be on the opposing candidates in the election. It is never the responsibility of an applicant for a job to prove that the person who eventually got the job did so with forged documents.- Atiku Abubakar
"A situation where a candidate submits contradictory credentials to INEC in different election cycles and the electoral umpire accepts them without question points to gross negligence, at best, or collusion to break the law by the leadership of the INEC, at worst" - Atiku Abubakar
"It is about the reputation of Nigeria and Nigerians in the eyes of the world. We showed incontrovertible evidence that Bola A. Tinubu was not qualified to contest the Presidential Election because he forged the qualifying academic certificate, which he submitted to INEC. In fact, a simple check of Tinubu’s past records in its possession would have shown INEC that Tinubu broke the law and should not have been allowed to contest the election" Atiku Abubakar
"It is not about me; it is about our country, Nigeria. It is about the kind of society we want to leave for the next generation and what kind of example we want to set for our children and their children" - Atiku Abubakar
"As for me and my party this phase of our work is done. However, I am not going away. For as long as I breathe I will continue to struggle, with other Nigerians, to deepen our democracy and rule of law and for the kind of political and economic restructuring the country needs to reach its true potential"- Atiku Abubakar
As religious, youth and community leaders, we must continue to let this next generation know that despite the glorification of crime by the courts;
1. Drug abuse and drug trafficking continue to be criminal activities that harm society and have severe negative impacts on mental health.
2. Certificate forgery whether personally done or procured from Oluwole is a crime that will destroy you sooner than later.
3. Stealing anyone's identify whether dead or alive denies the world the previlege of knowing the real and unique you.
4. We need to teach our children that if they take someone else's item and hide it in their bags, it's they who have committed theft, not the bag.
Lies have expiry dates but the truth Never Expires - Dr. Oche Otorkpa so Waziri Atiku Abubakar did not offer to resign from contesting presidential election despite admonition? Goodness!!!
Peter Obi and others should be mindful of their speeches, saying treasonable stuffs could land anyone in the bad side of govt,no one should push you into problem, Nnamdi Kanu is still languishing in detention, and this admonition goes to Nairalanders, be careful in what you post,na my Kobo advice be that!
Jorussia: Those of us who are conversant with our election petition adjudication already knew the opposition never had any special case in court. The election of February 25 is by far the best we have had since 1999.
opposition candidates and parties garnered over 15m voted separately, and the incumbent president with 8.9m votes, that's where the problem is, in 2014, opposition parties merged to dislodge the incumbent,PDP! so, they should restratergise for 2027 if not,so pe otilo!
Atiku should take the forgery case to Federal High court FCT , that's the first place to deal with that issue, forgery is a criminal charges and one accusing must get the co-operation of the security agencies, and the reports of the DPP will be cardinal to giving judgement in court,not beer parlour, not on social media, we await the epic judgement tomorrow,May Allah spares our lives, Amin
