I sincerely hope you dont bring this cesspool of religious bigots to the frontpage. You are promoting these people that are not even Nigerians to come and sow seeds of discord and disunity amongst us.

I hope the money they pay you is worth it.

A PALESTINIAN grandmother was “shot six times by the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF)” during a raid in the West Bank.

Sky News spoke with 80-year-old Halima Abu Leil’s son, who said she "fell to her knees" after Israeli forces fired at her six times on Thursday morning while out grocery shopping at Balata camp in Nablus.

"No one is with the Palestinians but God," he said at his mother's funeral.

"Every single Palestinian is targeted, no one is exempt. Not children, not the elderly, no one."

He then asked a Sky News journalist: "My mum was elderly and had cancer, diabetes and high blood pressure. They could see she was an old woman - why would they fire at her?"

An IDF spokesperson said: "Early on Thursday, the IDF conducted a counter terrorism activity to apprehend an individual suspected of terror activity in the area of Balata in Nablus.

“During the activity, the IDF soldiers engaged in exchanges of fire with terrorists who opened fire and hurled explosives toward IDF soldiers.

"Hits were identified. In addition, IDF soldiers encircled a structure in which terrorists barricaded themselves. No IDF injuries were reported."

Exousiang01:
There was no possible way the Tinubu administration would have executed the subsidy removal gradually sir.
The subsidy was already removed by the Buhari administration in 2022.
The subsidy was never captured in the 2023 budget.
NNPC was paying the subsidy from January 2023 and they continued to say they won't pay beyond May 2023.
Without a budget provision for subsidy and Tinubu coming in on the 29th of May, being the last days of May. How would he have removed the subsidy gradually.

Be he announced or not the subsidy was gone.
We all saw it in the 2023 budget, we all heard NNPCL say they won't pay beyond May.
So everybody suddenly acting suprised on the 29th of May is funny.

There are things call budget supplementation. Budget could have been supplemented, and then a phasic removal of 150 naira of subsidy per quarter, while increasing the salary. Or float the dollar first and then remove the subsidy a year after. Subsidy and forex at once is abuse to the common man. Also our cost of governance is bloated, a lot needs to be trimmed, especially faking legislatre a full time job. It should be a part time job.

TimeManager:
He said he was going to do it throughout his campaign. He communicated it.

Did you read the whole paragraph. Are you able to comprehend what is written.
Or you just decided to pick one phrase and run with it ?

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar will be the only representative at the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz on January 27.

Polish Deputy Foreign Minister Wladyslaw Bartoszewski said that if Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu comes to Poland, he will be arrested in accordance with the country’s commitment to the International Criminal Court (ICC).

Bartoszewski’s comments came in a Friday conversation with the Polish economic and legal newspaper Rzeczpospolita regarding the preparations for the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, which is set to take place this January 27.

Netanyahu was charged in November, along with former defense minister Yoav Gallant, for a series of crimes by the ICC. States that signed the Rome Statute are legally required to comply with ICC arrest warrants.

The anniversary is typically a major state event. However, Israeli officials declined to confirm whether Netanyahu would be permitted at the event, and President Isaac Herzog’s participation also seems unlikely.

Education Minister Yoav Kisch will be the only Israeli government representative at the anniversary.

Polish sources told Rzeczpospolita that Warsaw was enforcing the warrants due to its wish to see Russian President Vladimir Putin stand before the court. The court issued a warrant for Putin in 2022 over the kidnapping of Ukrainian children from occupied Ukraine.

Complying with the ICC arrest warrants
All 27 European Union states belong to the Rome Statute and are legally required to comply with the arrest warrants. So far, only Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has said that Netanyahu would not be arrested if he came to visit, going so far as to invite Netanyahu to his country.

Multiple EU states initially said they would arrest Netanyahu if he arrived in their nations. However, several have now reversed this either partially or completely.

France initially said it would fully comply with the arrest warrants, but following negotiations for a ceasefire in Lebanon, France then said that Netanyahu would be protected by diplomatic immunity.

Other EU states have confirmed they would arrest Netanyahu regardless of diplomatic immunity – including Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, Lithuania, and Slovenia.

Bola Tinubu’s recent fiscal policies—like the fuel subsidy removal and naira redesign—were meant to stabilize the economy, but they’ve caused widespread suffering. Could this have been avoided? Absolutely, if implemented with more care.

First, gradual change would’ve made all the difference. Instead of a sudden fuel price hike, a phased approach, paired with support for the vulnerable, could’ve eased the burden. The abruptness of the changes left Nigerians struggling to cope with the shock to their wallets.

Second, communication is key. The government failed to explain the long-term benefits of these policies, leaving many confused and frustrated. Nigerians needed to understand how these moves would eventually improve their lives, but instead, they were left in the dark.

If Tinubu’s team had taken a more gradual and inclusive approach, Nigerians wouldn’t be in the pain they’re in today. Leadership isn’t just about bold moves—it’s about timing, empathy, and long-term vision. That’s where the failure lies.
