Politics › Tinubu Truly Has Continued Where Buhari Stopped, Promise Kept- Obi by Giftimoni(op):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFWUvmS-2w4

Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has taken a swipe at President Bola Tinubu, sarcastically praising him for fulfilling his promise to continue where former President Muhammadu Buhari left off.

Speaking during a visit to Governor Bala Mohammed in Bauchi on Thursday, Obi criticized the current administration’s handling of the economy, stating that Nigeria must now move beyond ethnic and religious politics to focus on competence and capacity.

“Tinubu promised to continue where Buhari stopped. If you look at it, Buhari left the dollar at about N400, today it is about N1,500. Rice was about N40,000, it is now over N100,000. Fuel was about N300, it is now over N1,000. I can go on and on—everything has doubled and tripled. So, he has done exactly as he promised,” Obi remarked.

Obi contrasted Nigeria’s economic performance with that of Indonesia, citing how their government transformed the country’s economy over the past decade.

“In Indonesia, a president was sworn in about the same time as another one in Nigeria. Ten years later, Indonesia moved their GDP from $800 billion to $1.3 trillion, and their per capita income from $3,000 to $5,000.

Here in Nigeria, our GDP fell from $500 billion to $200 billion, and per capita income dropped from $3,500 to below $2,000—that is the difference,”* he explained.

He further emphasized the need to revive Nigeria’s industries, invest in education and healthcare, and steer the nation towards productive governance.

Obi stated that his meeting with Governor Bala Mohammed was part of a broader discussion on addressing the country’s challenges.

“We have just started discussions. You can’t consummate a marriage in one day. But the most important thing is that our thoughts are centered on issues that affect the ordinary Nigerian.

We want a Nigeria where a child of nobody can become somebody. We will eliminate the elite conspiracy that uses tribalism and religion to divide the people. We have voted for tribe and religion before; now, we must vote for competence and capacity,”* Obi declared.

Politics › Opposition Lawmakers Allege Plot To Disrupt Rivers LG Elections by Giftimoni(op): 7:30am On Mar 13, 2025
A coalition of opposition lawmakers has raised the alarm over an alleged plot by pro-Wike lawmakers to destabilise the upcoming local government elections in Rivers State through illegal legislative maneuvers and court orders.

Speaking at a press conference in Abuja, the leader of the group, Rep. Ikenga Ugochinyere (PDP – Imo State), alleged that some lawmakers loyal to the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, were making desperate moves to frustrate the conduct of the elections and prevent the implementation of the 2025 Rivers State budget, despite the Supreme Court’s directive.

According to Ugochinyere, the pro-Wike lawmakers are working to amend the Local Government Administration Law to pave the way for former local government chairmen—whose tenure has expired—to return to office.

“Their plan is to frustrate the election so that these former LGA chairmen, whose tenure is over, can come back. But we assure the people of Rivers State that the election will hold as scheduled by the electoral body. No illegal amendment will stop the process.”

He also accused them of seeking a court injunction to halt the elections, similar to previous legal maneuvers used to sabotage democratic processes in the state.

Ugochinyere further alleged that the lawmakers were deliberately avoiding the 2025 budget presentation in a bid to cripple governance in Rivers State.

“The Governor reached out to the House of Assembly members to come for a meeting, something Wike himself would never do. But they boycotted the meeting and refused to come. The Governor even called the Speaker multiple times, but he refused to answer. This shows their real agenda—anarchy and suffering for Rivers people.”

Despite these challenges, he commended Governor Siminalayi Fubara for his humility and compliance with the Supreme Court judgment, stating that the Governor had acted in good faith by reaching out to the Assembly members and ensuring governance continued despite the provocation and betrayal of the peace accord.

The lawmakers accused Wike of seeking control over Rivers State at all costs, rather than prioritizing peace and development.

“Wike’s interest is not about peace or progress; it is about control. Since he is no longer in charge of the state, he wants nothing done. Every crisis, from the local government elections to the Assembly impasse, is part of his strategy to hold the state hostage.”

The FCT minister condemned the alleged politicisation of traditional institutions, warning against interference with government projects.

“The traditional rulers are playing some politics; you can’t do that with me. We respect traditional institutions, but you can’t sabotage our work,” he asserted.

Addressing concerns about relocation of the affected persons, the Minister argued that building new houses is only justified when an entire community is displaced, not when a project affects a limited number of homes.

“If we are relocating a community, then we can go and build houses for them, not just 20 or 50 houses for a road corridor. Sometimes, it doesn’t take all the houses, maybe just some part of it. Where does that happen anywhere in the world?” he questioned.

He said that despite the discussions, certain structures remain, affecting the project’s progress.

“I have visited this site more than four times and have engaged with community leaders and their chiefs. It is crucial for them to cooperate with the government so that CGC, our contractor, can complete this road by May,” Wike said.

However, while speaking on the media chat, Barr Wike criticised attempts to sabotage the project, asserting his responsibility to ensure its execution.

“If we are coming to a community and say the whole community should evacuate, then you can say we should compensate, not when it’s just 20 houses. Now, we are doing that, and you are trying to sabotage us. I have a job to do, and my job is to execute that project,” he added.

I still do not understand in what capacity she went to represent Nigeria at an event like this since she is under suspension.

The protocol officer that allowed this should be probed. Ireti and the other women in the senate are more experienced than her, so how did a new senator who did not even join immediately after election get to be the one to be representing Nigeria?

Tulia Ackson, IPU president, acknowledged the concerns raised by Akpoti-Uduaghan and assured that the organisation would investigate the matter thoroughly.

She said the IPU would listen to both sides of the issue before taking any necessary steps.

Ackson recognised that another Nigerian delegate, Kafilat Ogbara, a member of the house of representatives, had requested to speak but was unable to due to time constraints.

“I would like to say we have heard her concerns, and having heard her, it would have been an opportunity for all of us to understand more about what she has said,” Ackson said.

“But because we listened only on her side, as an institution as IPU, we will be taking the concerns that have been raised, not only taking her side, but also giving a chance to listen to the other side, as it is a custom for IPU.

“After having listened to the other side, we will take steps as necessary. So I thought it was necessary for us to say a word about it and then be able to take it further.”

The Special Adviser and a Consultant to the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, on Communications and Strategy, Ken Okolugbo, has blamed the tension between his principal and Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan in the Senate on pent-up anger.

Okolugbo claimed that the seat arrangement controversy which pitted the Senator representing Kogi Central against the Senate President was made worse by Natasha’s bottled-up anger for her removal as the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Local Content.

“The fact of the matter was that her seat was removed and there was already bottled-up anger because she was removed from the local content committee,” Okolugbo said.

The dispute which started in the Red Chambers with seat arrangement escalated, with Natasha accusing Akpabio of sexual harassment, a claim the latter has denied.

This dispute has also led the Senate to suspend Senator Natasha for six months on Thursday for violation of its rules.

“That the Senate do suspend Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan for six months for her total violation of the Senate Standing Rules (2023 as amended for bringing the presiding officer and the entire Nigerian Senate to public opprobrium,” Senate President Godswill Akpabio said on Thursday while reading out the recommendations of the Committee on Ethics, Privileges, and Code of Conduct probing her claims.

Despite the suspension of the Kogi Senator, Akpabio’s aide believes that it is not late to resolve the issue, saying that all Natasha needs to do is to pen an apology.

“The reality of it all is that all Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan needs to do is to apologise, a written apology. She has been given that window, anybody that is deceiving her to the contrary is just ruining her political career,” Okolugbo said.

Disconnection: Soldiers Invaded Ikeja Electricity Headquarters, Beat-Up Staff

Personnel of the Nigerian Military have invaded the headquarters office of electricity distribution company Ikeja Electric in Lagos.

The headquarters of Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company (IKEDC) near Government House, Alausa-Secretariat, Ikeja, was invaded by armed men in military uniform at about 7:40 am on Thursday.

As of the time of filing this report, staff and other persons found in the office were being subjected to physical assaults by the armed soldiers led by a woman.

According to report, it took the swift intervention of the Lagos Police Command Headquarters, that called the high ranking military officer at the base headquarters to intervene, so that the armed soldiers can withdraw from the electricity company and find a way to peacefully resolve the issues.

Elsewhere in other locations in state, it was gathered that the personnel in uniform forced their way into the Ikeja Electric office on Ago Palace Way, Okota, Isolo, Lagos.

Videos obtained by our correspondent showed military personnel wielding arms and effectively crippling operations at the electricity distribution company.

More than seven staff members were seen kneeling while the military personnel assaulted others, forcing them to undergo the treatment.

Reports on Wednesday 5th March indicated that Ikeja Electric disconnected the power supply to the Nigerian Air Force logistics base in Ikeja.

The incident has instilled fear among company staff, with many hiding for safety.

A staff member, who spoke to The Guardian on condition of anonymity over fears for his life, said they had decided to boycott their offices as many colleagues who resumed work on Thursday have been unreachable.

He said: “I’ve been trying to reach our managers. Their numbers have been unreachable, and most likely, they have been attacked by the military guys.

“This is unheard of, unlawful, and disgraceful—that the military can invade the offices of companies in a civil society.”

There has been growing tension between Ikeja Electric and the Sam Ethnan Air Force Base, Ikeja, over the disconnection of power supply, which many fear may escalate if not addressed.

The Sam Ethnan Air Force Base, Ikeja, has been without power for two weeks following its disconnection by Ikeja Electric over an unpaid debt running into millions of naira.

Sources informed that there was an agreement for the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) to pay a monthly sum of N60 million to ensure a daily electricity supply of 10 to 12 hours to the base.

However, the prolonged power outage was compromising the base’s safety and security.

Sources confirmed that the base had consistently kept to its part of the bargain.

According to a source, his particular concern is the operational warehouse housing high-caliber armaments, which are reportedly at risk due to rising temperatures caused by the failure of the cooling systems.

Sources within Ikeja Electric said NAF had not fulfilled the agreement to pay the debt for the distribution company to restore power to the base.

The offices of Ikeja Electric had yet to resume operations at the time of filing this report.

Politics › Seyi Tinubu Broke Fast With Muslim Faithful In Kano by Giftimoni(op):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K32zpqv3AE8

In a show of solidarity and compassion, Seyi Tinubu, son of Nigeria’s President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, broke his fast with Muslim faithful in Kano on Monday.

The special Iftar event, held at Al-Furqan mosque in Kano metropolis, was part of the president’s Renewed Hope Youth Engagement (RHYE) initiative.

During the event, Seyi Tinubu also flagged off a feeding programme for the less privileged and the disabled.

This gesture underscores the president’s commitment to supporting vulnerable members of society.

Earlier in the day, Seyi Tinubu paid a visit to the residence of renowned business mogul, Aminu Dantata, and later paid homage to Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf.

The special Iftar was attended by a diverse group of dignitaries, including members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), led by its Chairman, Hashim Sulaiman Dungurawa.

Seyi Tinubu’s presence at the event highlights the importance of community engagement and social responsibility, particularly during the holy month of Ramadan.
