I'm glad they were apprehended.

Automatic job creation for dispatchers

I'm concerned about deportation of illegal immigrants already in Nigeria

Okay, Nigerians need holistic security measures

Osinbajo celebrity political status is unmatched in Africa.

I think the positioning is in order. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo should do more

The primary duty of a politician is servant-leadership

The minister is solving complex problems under his care in innovative ways.

Good morning Thatfairguy, how do I reach you privately for a news report

The right information will prevail

More approach is needed to tackle insecurity across all borders

Most submarine cable faults occur as a result of human activities such as fishing and anchoring in shallow waters near shore, natural hazards such as earthquakes and landslides, and then equipment failure.

MainOne stated that given the distance from land and the cable depth of about 3 km at the point of fault, any kind of human activity—ship anchors, fishing, and drilling, among others—had been immediately ruled out.

“Our preliminary analysis would suggest some form of seismic activity on the seabed resulted in a break to the cable, but we will obtain more data when the cable is retrieved during the repair exercise,” the operator said.

Rest in peace, Olubadan

There is more to be done but Nigerians celebrate the success in the Interior ministry so far.

One of Nigeria’s most respected legal luminaries, Prof. Itse Sagay advocated the need for judicial reforms, and analysed some of the decisions made by the Bola Tinubu administration, and how they have impacted the citizens. Also, Hajia Halima Ibrahim, National Coordinator (Financing) of the Safe Schools Project, detailed how technology would be used to improve security, especially for schoolchildren.

But let’s start with the host-Laolu Akande’s My Take, which is at the beginning of the programme
1. Akande, in his intro ‘My Take’ urged the Tinubu government to tackle the galloping inflation that has made life difficult for citizens. “The president is going to get the blame or the praise for what is happening. This is happening under his watch. Now, I can say, you know, because of what I experienced, that a lot of the problems that we are dealing with today, have been on for a long time. “There are people that understand the problem even more than the average guy. I think that the president should reach out wider. His party, the APC, has been in government for eight years. There are people who have been working on this problem for eight years.” he said.

2. Prof. Itse Sagay
Timing of subsidy removal: Professor Itse Sagay suggests that President Bola Tinubu’s decision to remove the subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) immediately after his inauguration in May 2023 was premature. Sagay believes that Tinubu should have waited for at least six months after assuming office before implementing such a significant policy change. This highlights the importance of timing and gradual transition in policy implementation to mitigate adverse effects on the populace.

3. Impact on cost of living: Sagay emphasizes the negative impact of the sudden subsidy removal on the cost of living in Nigeria. He notes that the abrupt decision has led to untold hardship for the citizens, making basic necessities more expensive and affecting the overall standard of living. This underscores the need for policymakers to consider the socio-economic implications of their decisions and implement measures to cushion the impact on vulnerable populations.

4. Judicial Reform: Professor Itse Sagay criticized the prevailing trend in the Nigerian judiciary where appointments are perceived to be influenced by nepotism and favouritism. He highlighted concerns about “inbreeding” within the judiciary, particularly at higher levels, where relatives of existing judges tend to be appointed. He underscored the need for transparency and meritocracy in the appointment process to ensure the judiciary’s integrity and independence. Sagay reminisced on the “golden age” of the Supreme Court and the eminent justices like Kayode Esho and Oputa, who epitomized a judicial philosophy focused on achieving justice rather than rigid adherence to technicalities of the law. He advocated for a return to this approach, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing justice over legal formalism.

5. Importance of local production: The former Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption advocates for the prioritization of internal production before subsidy removal. Sagay suggests that waiting for domestic petrol production to commence would have eased the transition and minimized the hardships experienced by Nigerians. This highlights the significance of promoting local industries and reducing dependence on imported goods to achieve sustainable economic growth.

6. Concerns about naira depreciation: Sagay expresses alarm over the depreciation of the Nigerian naira, particularly against the US dollar. He warns that the continued deterioration of the currency’s value could undermine the government’s efforts and have detrimental effects on the economy. This underscores the importance of implementing measures to stabilize the currency and restore investor confidence to safeguard economic stability and growth.

Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo is a reflection of "Breaking The Old Order of Governance and Advocacy" in passport collection, renewal, application, border security & lot more unlisted.

Ohaneze youths that cannot stop seat the home orders right in their nose from a slowpoke living outside Nigeria and in the prison.

The passport cabal must not win this battle against the renewed hope of Nigerians.

Preparation is key to preservation of this lofty ideas

As an ever ready public servant. We need more BTO in the affairs of Nigeria to implement more solutions.

8th of January is historic as Nigerians experience sweetness in a great dimension

No matter the amount of fake news these irritants put out on social media, their fav will not bag any top government office in Nigeria.

This smear campaign is from the pity of hell against Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo because his success is alarming.

May his soul rest in peace.

The manifestation of the kinda revolution I always wanted in Nigeria is now in reality with the lofty ideas & their implementation by Hon Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo.

Truly you don't have to know somebody to have a feel of good governance 🇳🇬

I can only ask for more BTO in every office.

Congratulations Nigerians on having the minister of interior solving national issues
