The outspoken Arise TV correspondent, Rufai Oseni, posted a video on his social media page praising the recent nationwide broadcast made by President Tinubu addressing his plans to address the economic situation of the country.

In the video going viral on twitter, he said:

"Hi, guys. So, um, I just finished listening to the Presidents speech. I will tell you my reactions. At first, I say things the way they are and you know, I keep telling people that are very delusional that please, do not live in delusion. For me, I want Nigeria to do wel and if a president does well, I will say it.
President Tinubu, well done. You did well on this speech and you did well on the measures because it's obvious you listened to all the things we had been saying. And you see, for all of you that think we don't want the best of this country, you have no idea how much I love this country. And that speech was a good speech by President Tinubu. I say it the way it is and I don't put sentiments to the matter.

All the things we said as regards CNG buses, he has ordered for the CNG buses. That will put money into our economy and when that puts money into our economy, I hope that people like innocent are able to get those contracts, and some other producers of CNG buses. They should give it to local manufacturers. Also, the billions he is putting down for businesses, yes, because you need to be able to stimulate growth.
Can we do more? Yes, but at least it's a good start. So, as regards putting money for businesses. Yes. And when a man does well I'll tell you he's doing well, I am dispassionate in my analysis. This was the kind of speech we've been expecting from President Tinubu, and I'm happy that all the advice and the solutions were given.

But it remains in the implementation. It is one thing to announce it, but if we mess up the implementation, it would be worse than where we're coming from. It is one thing to announce all of this, but if it does not implement properly, we will be worse from where we are coming from. Take for instance those money that he's going to give to businesses, I hope it's not going to be given to party members, I hope they are going to scrutinise the process effectively. The monies that he said he's going to put out there for those businesses, I hope the buses that are going to be bought, I hope that it is going to come to Nigerian manufacturers.
But it's a good speech. And also, you know, I kept on saying it, you see when we talk, we talk because we love this country so much. I kept on saying it, that there is no way, that there is no president, no country that doesn't intervene in energy prize of its citizens.

As of today, China still subsidizes energy. In fact, China spends billions to be able to subsidize renewable energy for citizens. And you heard what President Tinubu said. He said 'we see the price, the national price of gasoline, we see the pain with hardship and where necessary we will have to intervene' what that means invariably is that if they need to put subsidy back to cushion the effect if the price goes up, they will do it. So there needs to be a level of intervention.
I am not here for sentiments, I don't do sentiments. If you know me, my integrity is forthright. President Tinubu I give it to you. With those draft of measures, we can do more, but the next thing you must target now is implementation. If you go and watch all my analysis these are the things I've always called for, provide CNG buses, increase minimum wage. Another thing now that President Tinubu should add to it is lets also ensure that the refineries kick off on time and also lets ensure there is a framework concerning CNG. So those are the things we need to look at, but these measures are good. Can we add to it? Yes, but please let us not forget that its one thing to announce and it's another thing to implement. Like President Tinubu said, where necessary we have to intervene. Shebi I said it that day some people were saying subsidy is gone, its gone no intervention again...Fa fa fa fowl. No nation in the world can afford to leave...

And u love Nigerians? All this for terrorists. I think you should have fought for your right in the PDP that your region supported for 25 years for not giving you the ticket. All that anger shouldve been directed at Atiku until he gives you a ticket. Nigerians would have supported that.

Fight the right battles and stop being emotional. You hated APC since inception and were never a part of the party.

NAC1666:
And you look this young?
Main while, Tinubu married below that year

Close. Tinubu married in 1987. He has been married 35years.

stevups:
Must you wear suit always

Hes a man of God. Its his trademark i guess.

What a very funny thread.
Next thing people ask is 'how did we get here?'
Meanwhile:

He probably decided not to add that some of the 20 people killed in his presence were also eaten.

.

Nwangwu, popularly known as Akwa Okuko Tiwaraki, was kidnapped on Sunday at his new hotel, Triple P Hotel in Oba, Idemili North Local Government Area of the state, and was released in the early hours of Saturday after ransom payment.

The released kidnapped Anambra State native doctor, Chidozie Nwangwu, has revealed that those who abducted him had links to the infamous sit-at-home enforcers.
Sharing his experience in the hand of the hoodlums with his friends and well-wishers, on Saturday, Akwa Okuko said that if he had escaped the abduction, the kidnappers would have killed more people and kidnapped more guests in the Hotel.

The popular social media native doctor who had boasted of having numerous powers, claimed that his abductors want to kidnap 50 wealthy Anambrarians. He added that his kidnappers killed no fewer than 20 people in his presence.

“Let me tell you all what happened. While I was in the kidnappers’ den, I listened to the radio and saw how people were speaking all kinds of rubbish, so I decided to set the record straight," Daily Post quoted him to have said.

[b]“What happened was that I was there (at home) that day, at around 11:30, when someone named Okey Japan called me and said they were at my hotel, and that they were spending money, and had spent close to N300,000, and that they would have wanted me to be around.

“I obliged them and drove to the hotel all by myself, in my new car. No one came with me. I was there, and not up to 30 minutes, gunshot rented the air. People started running helter-skelter. I now went out to see what happening, and the people started shooting at me.

“They killed two of my security men. I don’t want to reveal much now, but I know that only two things can only save a man. If your charms do not save you, your money will save you.
“Anyone who has charms should have money. So the people took me into their car. If I wanted to run away, I would have run away, but I have seen those that were shot and I said if I leave, they will kill many people. A lot of people were lying down, and if I wanted to leave, they would have killed many.

“The story too would have been that the whole thing started when I came in, meaning that I was the one who brought in kidnappers. I decided to follow them to show that my hands were clean. What I did was to save many souls. If you think they took me because I ate people’s money, let me tell you I did not. If I eat your money, come to me I will give you money because I have money.

“People may be rejoicing that it happened to me but let me tell you, if the death that killed the rich, encounters the poor, it will crush him.
“This whole thing is related to these sit-at-home people, and they mentioned names of more people they will take, but it’s not something I can say now. They killed many in front of me. They killed up to 20 people before me. I did not take anyone’s money, they just came to kidnap and their target is people who have money. They wanted to kidnap as many as 50 people from my hotel that day, but I rather followed them,” he narrated.

My parents have been married over 40years and just as sweet. They have spent more years together than apart and are inseperable.
I know if one leaves now the other will soon follow. May God keep keeping them for me.

IPOBs Simon Ekpa has been claiming responsibility for the carnage on his twitter page by also posting the videos and calling the police officers 'terrorists'.

Some gunmen have reportedly attacked the Abia State Commissioner for Trade, Investments, Commerce and Industry, Dr. Chibueze Ukaegbu and killed two mobile policemen.

SaharaReporters gathered that the incident happened on Tuesday at Old Express Road by Faulks near Samek Junction at Aba, the commercial nerve centre of Abia State.

According to eyewitnesses, the hoodlums ambushed the commissioner while he was returning from a meeting with the leaders of various markets in Aba. The Director of Media to the Deputy Speaker of Abia State was quoted to have said that the remains of the murdered police officers had been deposited in the mortuary.

Meanwhile, a video of the incident seen by SaharaReporters on Wednesday morning shows a police vehicle on fire while the remains of one of the slain cops were on the ground in a pool of blood.

Bystanders are overheard lamenting the attack. Someone said, "Whoever kills by the sword will surely die by the sword."

Meanwhile, sources told SaharaReporters on Wednesday morning that hundreds of policemen have taken over the Ariaria International Market, shooting and harassing innocent traders because of the incident. The source said, "Please, help us. This morning, policemen took over Ariaria International Market, shooting and harassing innocent traders because of the unfortunate killing of two police officers yesterday. The innocent traders and residents were not the ones that killed the policemen.
"Nigerian security agencies should stop being cruel when such incidents happen. Nobody is happy with this insecurity. If you attack innocent traders and residents, how will they trust you and provide information to the police to help them track criminals? The police should deploy intelligence to fight crime in society."


Efforts by SaharaReporters to speak with the State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Ogbonna Geoffrey, on the incident were not successful as he did not answer his calls.

At the time of filing this report, he had yet to respond to a text message sent to his mobile phone.

raskymonojendor:
The Ibo way of life. Insult everyone else, then act the victim when tables are turned.

I remember watching the video below and the Ibo congregation cheered when the Ibo pastor declared that 1 Ibo man was equal to 500 Hausa men.

May God enter the matter at this point. It is realy tiring.

kettykings:
So Ajebo Danny is an igbo name. Thank God the north has intelligent people who can see sinister plan from far

Ajebo Danny is ibo. The hausas replied to him very well yesterday.

And none of it is owned by the government.

If yaradua didnt reverse the sale of all those refineries after Obasanjo had sold them, we would have crossed the bridge a long time ago.

Ajebo danny is ibo and has stated this several times on twitter.
