The President has clearly taken sides, ignoring Wike, who is at the center of the crisis. If justice is truly the goal, he should be held accountable too. A leader should unite, not favor one individual over an entire state.




Dictatorship at its peak.

The president is one sided!!
You should also suspend Wike!!
Wike is the main reason for the crisis

Interpol should be placed on red alert

Wow, what a 24 hours! Impeachment notice yesterday, pipeline explosion today... Hmmm

When it comes to unarmed civilians, these morons really know how to flex their power.

WAKE-UP CALL, NIGERIANS!

Did you know that the current minimum wage of ₦70,000 is equivalent to just $41?

Compare that to 2014 when ₦18,000 was equivalent to $98!

It's time for a change! The minimum wage should be at least ₦160,000 to match the purchasing power of ₦18,000 in 2014.

The Trade Union Congress, TUC, has called on the federal government not to go after a female corps member, who allegedly criticized the current administration of President Bola Tinubu in a viral video.

Recall that the corps member raised an alarm on Sunday that officials of the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, were threatening her for her criticism of Tinubu’s administration.

TUC President, Festus Osifo, who was a guest on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, said that the corps member spoke out of frustration, urging the government not to go after her but to be tolerant of critics.

The Lagos-based NYSC member, Ushie Uguamaye, had taken to TikTok to criticise Tinubu’s government over hardship Nigerians face as a result of the administration’s economic reforms.

Her video went viral and got the attention of NYSC officials whom she later accused of calling her and issuing a threat to her to delete the video.

Meanwhile, NYSC is yet to release an official statement regarding the issue.
“They (government) have to develop this resilience to understand that people are frustrated, people are hungry, people are tired. So, if they decide to vent, I strongly believe that the government should not personalise it and come after such individuals.

“Imagine a young lady carrying out her NYSC function, what does she really have to do to bring down government? So, it is about personal frustration that she has aired.

“So, I think that the government has to persevere much more, they have to be more tolerant, and they have to have this deep level of patient with Nigerians because people are passing through a lot as it stands today,” TUC boss said

Osifo, however, advised critics to always criticise the government within the expected norm and with some level of decorum.

In a statement released earlier on Sunday, Amnesty International also condemned the alleged threats and intimidation being faced by the Lagos-based corps member.

It said that the Federal Government must stop threatening individuals and groups who criticise the current administration.

“The Nigerian authorities must stop responding with violence and threats to individuals and groups who express dissenting opinions — in utter disregard for the Nigerian constitution and international law. Holding and voicing dissenting views is not a crime,” the organisation wrote in a statement on its X handle.

Since you are ok with the 1000 in your bank account and plenty garri without sugar all day doesn't mean others want to be like you..

After blowing her entire funds on a lavish lifestyle in Lekki and VI, she now disparages the same state, calling it smelly?

Good afternoon, everyone. I have a question about this older version Felicity MPPT model. Is it compatible with lithium batteries, or would I need to upgrade to a newer model?

A corper or a call girl? What's she doing in a highbrow restaurants on her meager stipend.

There is something I strongly believe in, which is that Nigeria will be great again. Whether we like it or not.

They should make it only the president should have the authority to remove 1st class emirs, not the LG chairman or governor!

Your brain must be on a 4-hour shift too because it's clearly not working full-time.

Frustrated soul!

I thought the minimum wage agreed upon by the government was N70,000, not N30,000. Is LAWMA (Lagos Waste Management Authority) having its own separate minimum

The Nigerian House of Representatives has directed the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), to ensure the blocking of all pornographic sites in the country.

The House wants the Commission to compel all internet service providers to block all such contents with immediate effect.

Dalhatu Tafoki, a lawmaker from Katsina State representing the All Progressives Congress (APC), sponsored the motion.

While presenting the motion, Tafoki emphasised that cyber pornography is a growing global concern and noted that Nigeria has not done enough to tackle the issue.

According to him, Nigeria is a “highly religious country” where major faiths preach against and prohibit nudity and obscenity.

The lawmaker went further to state that several countries across Asia, Africa and the Middle East had enacted laws banning pornography.
To drive home his point, the Katsina lawmaker made reference to warnings from psychologists and sociologists about the negative impact of pornography.

According to him, pornography could lead to adultery, prostitution and addiction.

“Renowned psychologists and sociologists around the world have issued stern warnings on the psychological, sociological and mental consequences of viewing pornographic content,” he said.

Tajudeen Abbas, the Speaker of the House of Representatives subjected the motion to a voice vote where the lawmakers voted in support of it.

The House directed the NCC to impose penalties on service providers that fail to comply with the directive.

Powerful, greedy politicians fight over their interests. My concern is that ordinary citizens like us are the ones who suffer the consequences.

Are you saying that Lagos State government which is known to have a godfather is under a corrupt system?

No wonder Ambode was chased out of Government house when he wanted to throw some decency into the government of Lagos State....

But who is this god father in Lagos State that is on a corrupt system as you mentioned?

I'm not discussing lagos. Focus on the actual topic.

If you’re against godfatherism, then don’t rely on godfathers to win elections. That’s exactly the situation with Fubara and Wike. Fubara emerged through a corrupt system, and now he has to face the consequences.

Dangote has exposed NNPCL and their evil. God bless Aliko Dangote

It's refreshing to see a Muslim governor promoting understanding and acceptance. In today's world, where technology has bridged gaps and connected people across cultures, religious intolerance has no place. We should be embracing our differences and fostering a culture of mutual respect and coexistence.

The Secret Service shot a man during an armed confrontation near the White House Sunday, the agency announced.

The incident took place just after midnight, about a block west of the White House near the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.

In a statement, the Secret Service said that earlier on Saturday police shared information about a suicidal individual who may have been traveling to Washington, D.C., from Indiana.

At around midnight, members of the Secret Service encountered the man’s parked car near 17th and F Streets, NW, and saw a person matching his description nearby.

As officers approached, the individual brandished a firearm and an armed confrontation ensued, during which shots were fired by our personnel," the agency wrote in a statement.

"The suspect was rushed to an area hospital and his condition is unknown.

The Metropolitan Police Department will lead an investigation into the shooting since they are the primary agency responsible for use-of-force incidents within the District of Columbia, the Secret Service said.

President Donald Trump was not in the White House at the time, per his schedule. The president is expected to leave his Mar-a-Lago estate today at 5 p.m. and return to the capital.

If you're not rooting for this epic price war, do you even love Nigeria? Dangote and NNPC are like two rivals in a WWE match, and honestly, we're all winning. Let them keep 'pressing each other's necks...our wallets are cheering!
