Onanuga expressed outrage over the alleged vandalism and hinted at harsh punitive measures as a deterrent, a remark that quickly attracted attention and triggered mixed reactions online.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GCGtPPyAdM A comment by Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser on Information and Strategy to President Bola Tinubu, has stirred reactions on social media after he suggested extreme measures against vandals allegedly sabotaging the Ibadan–Ilesa/Ife federal highway project. Onanuga was reacting to a post by an X (formerly Twitter) user who accused vandals of cutting and carting away starter bars and shoulder rods from the ongoing reconstruction of the highway. The post claimed that the actions were undermining the quality and pace of work on the project. In his response, Onanuga expressed outrage over the alleged vandalism and hinted at harsh punitive measures as a deterrent, a remark that quickly attracted attention and triggered mixed reactions online. While some users supported a tough stance against infrastructure sabotage, others criticised the tone of the comment, arguing that it appeared excessive and inappropriate for a senior presidential aide. The Ibadan–Ilesa/Ife highway, which links Oyo and Osun states, is a major federal corridor and a critical economic route connecting parts of the South-West. It is currently undergoing reconstruction as part of the Federal Government’s broader road rehabilitation and infrastructure renewal programme. The project is seen as vital to improving road safety, reducing travel time, and boosting commercial activities between the two states. However, repeated cases of vandalism and theft of construction materials have posed challenges to contractors and raised concerns about increased costs and project delays. As debate continues online, some commentators have called for strengthened security around federal infrastructure projects and stricter enforcement of existing laws, rather than inflammatory rhetoric, to address vandalism and protect public assets.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I29yCbQhXx8 Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 general election, has called on Nigerians to pray for their political leaders, admitting that politicians bear responsibility for the country’s challenges. Obi made the appeal while speaking at a thanksgiving service held to mark Oyo State’s 50th anniversary at the Cathedral of St. Peter Anglican Church, Aremo, Ibadan, the state capital. Addressing the congregation, the former Anambra State governor said Nigeria’s difficulties are not a result of a lack of resources but of poor leadership and governance. “I want to make a request from Nigerians. Do remember us politicians in your prayers. We are the problem of Nigeria, no other person,” Obi said. He stressed that the country is richly endowed but has failed to translate its resources into prosperity for its citizens due to mismanagement of public funds. “Nigeria is not a poor country, it is poorly governed. Remember us in your prayers that God should touch our hearts to use public money for public good. That is what is required,” he added. Obi’s remarks drew attention to the role of leadership accountability and ethical governance in addressing Nigeria’s socio-economic challenges, as he urged leaders to place national interest above personal gain. https://voicenews.com.ng/peter-obi-urges-nigerians-to-pray-for-political-leaders-says-politicians-are-nigerias-problem/

“Disobeying the law has consequences. From tomorrow, any worker who refuses to resume work will face disciplinary action. Anyone who attempts to block government facilities will face the full weight of the law,” he said, insisting that engagement with labour unions remained ongoing. Giftimoni: |
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzzkO0h2RPg The minister acknowledged workers’ right to protest in a democracy but stressed that strike action should be a last resort, especially when government had addressed most of the demands presented by labour unions. “This is a democracy. Everyone has the right to protest. But if workers made 14 demands and government addressed like 10, there should be room for understanding and patience,” he added. Drawing from his experience as a former governor and local government chairman, Wike said government does not deny legitimate entitlements but cautioned against expectations that all demands can be met at once. He also dismissed reports that he was chased out of office during the strike, describing them as false and politically motivated. “I was in my office, went to the airport to see Mr President, travelled to Turkey, and returned. These stories are deliberate misinformation,” he said. Following the court order suspending the strike, Wike warned that any worker who fails to resume duties would face disciplinary action. “Disobeying the law has consequences. From tomorrow, any worker who refuses to resume work will face disciplinary action. Anyone who attempts to block government facilities will face the full weight of the law,” he said, insisting that engagement with labour unions remained ongoing.

Correct...“The government cannot stand by while a few individuals willfully undermine public safety and disregard official directives meant to restore normalcy,” Soludo said. “This is plain economic sabotage.” Giftimoni: |
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6hj2voxLEs Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has ordered the closure of the Onitsha Main Market for one week following traders’ failure to comply with the state government’s directive to disregard the Monday sit-at-home order. The directive was issued on Monday during an on-site visit to the market by the governor, accompanied by senior government officials and security personnel. Governor Soludo warned that the closure could be extended if traders continue to defy government instructions, noting that security agencies have already sealed the market to enforce compliance. Describing the action as part of a broader effort to reclaim economic activities in the South-East, the governor said the continued observance of the sit-at-home order undermines public safety, economic stability, and government authority. Despite repeated assurances of improved security and sustained appeals by the state government for traders to resume normal business activities on Mondays, Soludo expressed disappointment that many shop owners at the major commercial hub once again kept their stalls locked. According to the governor, the widespread absence of traders amounted to a quiet but significant resistance, reflecting the persistent atmosphere of fear affecting economic life in the region. “The government cannot stand by while a few individuals willfully undermine public safety and disregard official directives meant to restore normalcy,” Soludo said. “This is plain economic sabotage.” He stressed that the state government remains committed to protecting lives and property and will continue to take firm measures to ensure full restoration of lawful economic activities across Anambra State. https://voicenews.com.ng/soludo-orders-one-week-closure-of-onitsha-main-market-over-sit-at-home-noncompliance/

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbN1SouFVW8 Former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, has said recent economic reforms introduced by President Bola Tinubu are yielding positive results, arguing that food prices across the country are beginning to decline. Oshiomhole made the assertion while responding to questions about what the President would present as key achievements ahead of a possible re-election bid. According to him, the impact of the reforms is already evident in the food market, where prices are reportedly easing after months of sharp increases. “There are Nigerians now who are saying food is becoming too cheap,” Oshiomhole stated, noting that the development itself has generated fresh political arguments. He added that some opposition figures have accused the federal government of deliberately manipulating food prices to force them down, a claim he described as proof that the reforms are working. “I even heard some opposition members saying the President is manipulating food prices to crash. So they are angry that the food prices are down,” he said. The former Edo State governor maintained that the Tinubu administration’s policies, though initially difficult, were designed to stabilise the economy and improve living conditions for Nigerians in the long term. Oshiomhole’s comments have sparked renewed debate, with supporters of the government citing improved market trends as evidence of progress, while critics argue that food affordability remains a challenge for many households.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWQQ6gAIp1Q The father of Afrobeats star Davido, Adedeji Adeleke, has dismissed renewed paternity claims linking his son to a minor, Anuoluwapo Michelle Adeleke, alleging that controversial journalist Kemi Olunloyo is behind what he described as a prolonged campaign of impersonation and defamation. At the centre of Mr Adeleke’s claims is an allegation that Ms Olunloyo impersonated the minor online to attack Davido. The 68-year-old billionaire read a message he said was sent by Anu’s aunt, denying ownership of a social media account allegedly used to post statements attributed to the child. “She said, ‘My mum or I do not run the account. The account is run by Kemi Olunloyo, with whom we cut ties years ago. We have reached out to her several times to stop posting anything about Anu.” The singer’s dad questioned the legality of impersonating a minor and accused Ms Olunloyo of persistently targeting his son. “This Kemi Olunloyo has been after my son David for many years. Everything she says about David is always negative,” he said. Reacting to claims allegedly made by Ms Olunloyo about his wife, he added, “How can this Kemi say that she drove my wife to the hospital? The woman is a lunatic.” Mr Adeleke said the family is considering legal action over what he described as sustained defamation. “We are going to consider suing her,” he said, adding that the allegations had become excessive and damaging.

Torh...Laryea’s rising popularity is being linked to his participation in high-profile AFCON matches, where his performances drew attention from football fans across the continent.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJcR01mnXYI A diesel tanker overturned early Monday morning on the Tincan–Liverpool Bridge in Apapa, Lagos, leading to a hazardous situation as residents and passersby rushed to scoop fuel spilling from the vehicle. The incident occurred during the morning rush hour, causing traffic disruption along the busy corridor. Eyewitnesses said that before traffic officials arrived at the scene, dozens of people converged on the bridge with jerrycans and improvised containers to collect the highly combustible diesel, raising serious safety concerns. Videos circulating on social media showed the crowd gathered around the fallen tanker as fuel leaked onto the roadway, despite the obvious risk of fire or explosion. The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) later confirmed that emergency responders had brought the situation under control. In a statement posted on X, the agency said the affected section of the Liverpool Bridge had been reopened after officials of the Lagos State Fire and Rescue Service neutralised the spilled fuel. “The road on Liverpool Bridge inward Apapa that was cordoned off has now been reopened after the contents were neutralised by men of the Lagos State Fire Service,” LASTMA said. “Our officials are doing the needful, and traffic is expected to improve while we await the arrival of a tow truck to remove the tanker.” Earlier, LASTMA had advised motorists to plan their movements, noting that fire service personnel and rescue teams were on ground while a counterflow traffic control system was being implemented. Traffic along the corridor was described as extremely slow at the time. The incident has once again drawn attention to the recurring and dangerous practice of fuel scooping in Nigeria. Similar episodes in the past have ended in tragedy. https://voicenews.com.ng/diesel-tanker-overturns-on-apapa-bridge-sparks-dangerous-fuel-scooping/

Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle has defended his decision to bring on Samuel Chukwueze late in Nigeria’s AFCON semi-final against Morocco, despite the winger missing his penalty in the decisive shootout. Nigeria were eliminated 4–2 on penalties on Wednesday after a tense goalless draw over 120 minutes, failing to reach the final of the continental tournament. Misses from Chukwueze and Bruno Onyemaechi proved costly as the Atlas Lions progressed. Chukwueze was introduced during extra time specifically for the shootout, a move that sparked widespread criticism from fans on social media after his miss. Speaking at the post-match press conference, Chelle said the decision was based strictly on training performance and statistical analysis. “I brought on Chukwueze for the penalty shootout because we worked extensively on penalties in training,” Chelle explained. “Based on the statistics, the players who took penalties were the best performers during training and warm-ups. That is why they were on the pitch.” The coach stressed that all selected kick-takers had consistently delivered during practice sessions and that the outcome did not invalidate the process behind his choices. Nigeria’s latest shootout heartbreak adds to recent disappointment, having also missed out on qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup after losing 4–3 on penalties to DR Congo in the African playoff final in November 2025. https://voicenews.com.ng/chelle-defends-decision-to-introduce-chukwueze-in-penalty-shootout-loss-to-morocco/

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpmZmnAozz0 Nigeria’s vice-captain, Victor Osimhen, says the Super Eagles are fully confident, united, and focused ahead of their Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) semi-final clash against host nation Morocco. Speaking ahead of the crucial encounter, Osimhen dismissed any suggestion that the team is under pressure, stressing that the players view the match as an opportunity rather than a burden. “The Super Eagles are approaching this game with confidence, not fear. For us, this is an opportunity, not a burden,” the Galatasaray forward said. Osimhen acknowledged the high expectations from Nigerian fans but noted that the squad is drawing strength from their unity and belief in one another. “We understand what our people expect from us, and we respect that. But we also believe in each other, and that collective belief is what drives us,” he added. Reflecting on Nigeria’s journey to the semi-finals, Osimhen attributed the team’s success to discipline, resilience, and togetherness. “Our progress in this tournament has been built on hard work, resilience, discipline, and unity. Now our focus is on executing the game plan and giving our best on the pitch,” he said. Nigeria will face Morocco in a high-stakes semi-final with a place in the AFCON final on the line. https://voicenews.com.ng/super-eagles-approaching-morocco-clash-with-confidence-osimhen/

While Jarvis did not directly counter the criticism, she acknowledged that the breakup had prompted self-reflection, including how she engages with her audience. Clips from the interview have since circulated widely on social media, generating mixed reactions from viewers. Giftimoni: |
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSM6D9UtJlI Media personality Daniel Regha has stirred conversation online following a blunt remark he made during an interview with social media influencer Jarvis, amid reports of her breakup with fellow content creator, Peller. Speaking during the interview, which focused on the circumstances surrounding the breakup, Regha openly criticised both Jarvis and Peller for what he described as their failure to use their social media platforms meaningfully. “I’ve never seen you and Peller use your platform for something reasonable,” Regha said, a comment that immediately shifted the tone of the discussion. The statement appeared to catch Jarvis off guard, as the interview had largely centred on personal challenges and emotional strain linked to the end of the relationship. Regha’s remark, however, reframed the conversation, drawing attention to the broader influence of digital creators and the responsibilities that come with large online followings. While Jarvis did not directly counter the criticism, she acknowledged that the breakup had prompted self-reflection, including how she engages with her audience. Clips from the interview have since circulated widely on social media, generating mixed reactions from viewers. Some users praised Regha for what they described as a “hard truth,” arguing that influencers should leverage their reach to promote positive causes or meaningful conversations. Others, however, accused him of being unnecessarily harsh and insensitive, especially given the emotional context of the interview. The exchange has reignited debates about influencer culture in Nigeria, particularly questions around accountability, content value, and the impact of online platforms beyond entertainment. https://voicenews.com.ng/ive-never-seen-you-peller-use-your-platform-for-something-reasonable-daniel-regha-tells-jarvis/
