One thing we missed about Aregbesola. Merry Christmas and pray well for 2026.

May our blood not be used to enjoy life. Condolences to his family.

Outsiders are ruling Lagos, but when we talk, they call us names. Let me add Lai Mohammed tried to be Kwara governor, he vacated his post for Fashola to become Chief of Staff to Tinubu. An Egba man will become next Ogun governor. Won kan fe je owo Yayi ni.
Think about it I know this guy from Egbeda /Akowonjo, he used to be round houses for them to vote him.

Chicago bull is not to be joke at. Let me laugh ahead, think and don't abuse me. Government is looking for money to meet its obligations and someone is lieing to you that Government will reduce your taxes. How will Government increase its revenues.

I saw it since yesterday, decoded not to post it. As long as everyone standing on his mandate will pay too, I have no problem. Government is not just reducing your purchasing power, but squeezing you to thin. Tinubu is taxmaster. He did it in Lagos. Anyways, I don't see him beyond 2027.

They brought them out from where they kept them, thank God. May God visit all involved.

Aston Villa are now title contenders. Manchester beaten.

Africa has never been free, we still obey our task masters, anyways, it is costly now to host AFCON.

Tax Laws Forgery: President Tinubu After Total Power, Says ADC

—-Demands Suspension of Tax Laws Following Forgery Findings

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has called for the immediate suspension of the Tinubu administration’s draconian tax laws, scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2026. The call follows recent findings that the final version of the law contains substantial forgery of provisions that were not in the original bill passed by the National Assembly.

In a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, the ADC warns that tampering with a piece of legislation after it has been passed by the National Assembly is an indication that President Tinubu desires to concentrate all powers in himself.

The opposition party demanded the immediate suspension of the tax laws to allow the legislature to determine the extent of the forgery inserted by the Tinubu administration and to take the necessary corrective actions.

The party also calls for a public inquiry to investigate the circumstances surrounding the criminal alterations of a duly passed law, and to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to justice.

The full statement reads:

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has reviewed various reports which confirm doubts that the various tax laws passed by the National Assembly and signed into law by President Bola Tinubu contain substantial forgery of key provisions that were not in the original laws passed by the legislature.

ADC’s forensic review of the original laws and the gazetted versions has also established beyond all doubt that key accountability provisions were deleted and new provisions inserted, granting coercive powers to the Executive in the enforcement of the tax laws without recourse to the courts. For example, one of the criminal insertions into the laws grants the Bola Tinubu government the express power to arrest and take over the property of anyone who does not comply with the tax laws.

The ADC’s position on the so-called tax reforms has been made clear. We do not support any tax that is more likely to compound the misery and hardship already faced by citizens and businesses. But this issue goes beyond taxation. It speaks to the criminal mindset of a government that has no ethical boundaries, has no regard for democratic institutions, and will do anything to pursue its narrow, selfish agenda.

Altering legislation and gazetting same after it has been passed by 469 elected representatives of the Nigerian people is a direct assault on constitutional governance. More fundamentally, it is indicative of the totalitarian instincts of a President desirous of concentrating all powers of government in himself, even if it means violating the very Constitution from which he derives his authority.

For the avoidance of doubt, under our Constitution, only the legislature can make laws. Therefore, any legislation that has not been passed according to the provisions of the Constitution cannot stand. To accept that the Executive could whimsically insert or remove even a punctuation mark from a piece of legislation after it has been passed by the legislature is to arrogate law-making powers to the Executive arm of government. This portends grave danger to our democracy.

The ADC therefore calls for the immediate suspension of all the 2025 tax laws signed by President Bola Tinubu to allow for a full legislative review. This is the only reasonable course of action if we must not give the dangerous impression that the principle of separation of powers enshrined in our Constitution can be sidestepped by the President.

We also call for a full investigation and the immediate prosecution of any government official found culpable in the execution of this act of forgery that strikes at the very heart of our democracy.

Akpabio will not allowed it to be debated, but it will be on record Abaribe moved the motion.

Rubbish as usual, nothing was done in 2025 budget, yet the assembly will RUBBER STAMP it. A man that have no direction, apart from his personal goals.

Eyoo ma jade ni 27. Awon kan ni aise omo Eko.

Despite covering everywhere with posters in Lagos in 2023, he lost woefully despite rigging. 2027 will be landmark, door to door put on third mainland bridge banners too.

Guilty as charged and some will still defend then.

Good one by the opposition.

Lagos Island, no go ara tomorrow. But we most go and enjoy at our Agarawu area, planning for Suleman Malaika.

Wike's faction should go and rest, most it's members are already in APC.
