How do u get to only see the negativity in all news??

Like, I read the same news, found that it's about the reciprocity of allocating slots, which is actually good for our local Airline, especially Air Peace, as was stated in the news


I'm worried for u now

aljharem:
True however those other ethnic group have no right to criticize a government that is working if they know they are the ones destroying the place

Omoyorubatooto:
This is one of ibo men I respect and admire. He was busy working had to revive APC in his state despite s deeprooted hatred the region has against the APC. This is really a pain for those who love politics without tribalism

Throwback:
I hope those who think that legislators do not deserve a recess, are now happy that some work themselves to death?

He barely lived for 3days after the recess started.

May his soul rest in peace.

SaharaReporters learnt that Ubah died in a hotel in London, the United Kingdom. He had left for London two days ago.



His death was also confirmed on a group chat of senators who had started to pour in tributes.




Just days ago, his campaign council donated a total of N71 million to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State, bolstering the party’s presence and strength in the region.



The donation, which includes N50million from Senator Ubah himself, was part of his pledge to support the party and enhance its effectiveness in the state.



The senate has yet to comment on the incident.

Peter Obi and his band of misfits are always looking for someone to blame. The shutdown of Dangote Tomato is just another excuse for him to play the victim. If only he had focused on real governance instead of his usual antics, maybe we wouldn't be here. Typical of the agulu fraud to dodge accountability!

Northern Group Rallies 19 Northern States For #EndBadGovernance Protest, Arranges For Lawyers, Bouncers To Protect Protesters

The Northern Voices for Justice (NVJ) has called on men, women and youths in the 19 northern states of Nigeria to join the #EndBadGovernance protest scheduled for August 1 to 10.

Its Convener, Comrade Sani Saeed Altukry, in a statement on Friday, highlighted the reasons for the planned protest, describing it as constitutional right of citizens.

He said, “We, the Northern Voices for Justice (NVJ), led by Comrade Sani Saeed Altukry, are calling on every man, woman, and youth in the 19 Northern States to rise and join our mass protest. This is an urgent call to action, an emergency response to the injustices and hardships imposed on us by an indifferent and corrupt administration.”

Altukry highlighted economic hardship as one of the reasons for the protest, saying, “The unbearable cost of living, soaring food prices, and lack of subsidies on essential services have pushed many families to the brink of starvation and despair.”

Highlighting other reasons, he said, “Fuel Prices: The removal of fuel subsidies has caused unprecedented hardship. We demand that fuel prices be reduced to below 250 Naira per litre.

“Educational Subsidies: The reintroduction of subsidies to make tertiary education affordable for our youth.

“Electricity Tariffs: Restoration of electricity tariffs to affordable rates to ensure that every Nigerian can access basic utilities.

“Judicial and Electoral Reforms: We demand a transparent judiciary and an independent electoral commission (INEC) to ensure fair and credible elections.”

He said their “actions are not only justified but are also protected by the Nigerian Constitution. Section 40 of the Nigerian Constitution guarantees every citizen the right to assemble freely and protest”.

“We are exercising our legal right to demand justice and accountability from those in power,” he said.

According to him, the group is “liaising with a team of dedicated lawyers who will provide pro-bono services to anyone harassed or detained by the police or any law enforcement agencies during the protests”.

“We will not be silenced by intimidation or oppression,” he said.

Regarding some citizens including clerics who have been discouraging Nigerians from embarking on the protest, he said, “We are aware that some so-called comrades and clerics are distancing themselves from this protest. Let it be known that these individuals are nothing more than paid agents and sell-outs, lacking the support of the true Nigerian citizens. They do not speak for us and their actions betray the trust of the people.

“To ensure the safety and integrity of our protests, we have arranged for bouncers who will be present across all 19 Northern States to prevent any form of infiltration by hoodlums or disruptive elements. This is a peaceful protest, and we will maintain the highest standards of conduct.

“This is a clarion call to every Nigerian, not just those in the North. Stand with us in solidarity. Join us in demanding a better Nigeria. Together, our voices will resonate across the nation, and we will bring about the change we desperately need.­

Great move from Keir Starmer

So now we're playing the blame game? If Peter Obi really had a hand in the shutdown, then it's time to question his leadership abilities. A leader should be lifting industries, not shutting them down.

One Aisha Abubakar, a women leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who doubles as a bandits' informant, has confessed to receiving only N5000 from N9million and a motorcycle paid as a ransom to bandits in Katsina State.



Abubakar reportedly organised the kidnap of five members of the family of the Tsaiyaya Ward APC chairman and was paid the said N5000.



In a viral interogatry video, Abubakar revealed how she supplied information leading to the kidnap of one Alhaji Sanusi, two wives and three children of the APC chairman in Tsaiyaya Ward in the Matazu Local Government Area of Katsina State.



She confessed to have participated in another cattle rustling operation which also fetched her the sum of N20,000 only.



"I was approached by one Zainab, now at large to provide information on Alhaji Sanusi and the family of chairman to enable a successfully kidnap operation and I did.



"After the ransom, including N9 million and a motorcycle were paid I was given a share of N5000. Though with a balance of N15,000 to be paid after I returned from a wedding ceremony in Zaria.



"Other key actors within Tsaiyaya community were Yahaya, Audu na Bani and the children of Bashar.



"I was also a key informant in the successful cattle rustling in Tsaiyaya some time ago and I got N20,000 from that operation," Abubakar confessed.
