continue making noise!

Tunubu laptop boy. I have spotted you o

casualobserver:
I am not sure it works that way though. The crude Dangote is refining today wasnt bought at todays crude prices. Similarly, importers did not buy their PMS at today's prices. For importers, it takes time for the petrol they bought when crude was >$100 to arrive in the country. thats the petrol they are selling today.

you dont buy crude today refine it today and distribute it to the retail pumps today. to ensure refineries have guaranteed feedstock, they pay in advance for their crude at the price prevailing when they buy the crude not the price of crude at the time the PMS comes out of the refinery.

oga your story is not new.
Answer this question. When they adjusted price upward instantly, when the price of crude went up , which stock were they selling?

Let's Discuss About This.

This is LEGENDARY

The FCT Police Command has officially rescued 36-year-old Grace Aniekuoku and arrested her brother, Chinedu Aniekuoku, following a formal operational briefing by Commissioner of Police Ahmed Sanusi.

On June 12, 2026, the FCT Police Command received a critical distress call regarding a woman held in captivity.Forceful Entry: Detectives from the Katampe Division were immediately deployed to the residence.

Upon arrival, Chinedu Aniekuoku behaved aggressively and tried to deny the police access to the property. Officers forced their way inside to extract the victim.

Police found Grace chained in a dark room described as highly unsanitary, where she had been forced to live amidst her own physical waste. She was severely emaciated and completely unable to walk due to prolonged muscle atrophy.

While early community reports and video accounts estimated her confinement lasted between two to four years, official police tracking confirms she was held in chains for over 16 months (approximately 1 year and 4 months).

Local testimonies indicate that the siblings jointly started a successful cement business. To stop Grace from claiming her financial share and real estate assets, Chinedu falsely labeled his sister as mentally unstable to justify locking her away.

During initial statements, there was confusion regarding a missing child, with early community footage alleging a missing daughter. The official police update clarified that authorities are actively searching for Grace’s young son, who was taken to an unknown location roughly two years ago.

Preliminary investigations suggest Chinedu may have locked Grace up specifically to stop her from investigating her son's sudden disappearance.

Grace was rushed by police operatives to a nearby hospital. She is currently undergoing intensive medical treatment and psychological rehabilitation to recover from severe physical trauma and isolation.

Chinedu Aniekuoku remains in police custody. The FCT Command has announced that he will face formal prosecution in court for unlawful confinement, deprivation of personal liberty, and severe assault as soon as the investigation concludes.

South Africa captain Ronwen Williams has expressed disappointment at what he described as a lack of support from fellow African nations following Bafana Bafana’s 2-0 defeat to co-hosts Mexico in their opening 2026 FIFA World Cup match on Thursday night, Saturday PUNCH reports.

The result leaves South Africa with work to do in Group A as they pursue a place in the knockout rounds.

Speaking after the match, Williams admitted he was surprised by the volume of African football fans who appeared to back Mexico rather than an African representative on the global stage, and called for greater unity among Africans during major tournaments.

“Africans have always supported other African countries in every World Cup tournament, but I can’t figure out why our own case is different,” Williams said. “Many Africans supported Mexico, not us, the South Africans. We almost shed tears, but it’s truly sad.”

"As Africans, let’s stand for each other, let’s stand together.”

While some supporters sympathised with the goalkeeper’s sentiments and agreed that African nations should rally behind one another at international competitions, others offered a contrasting view.

A number of social media users from countries including Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and Zimbabwe argued that recurring reports of xenophobic attacks on African migrants in South Africa have weakened the sense of continental solidarity, with several referencing past incidents involving foreign nationals living in the country as having shaped how other Africans view South Africa.

Some openly stated that they had supported Mexico in the match, citing those tensions as a factor in their decision.

https://punchng.com/south-africas-williams-hurt-by-lack-of-african-support/

Punch newspaper fall my hand. This is fake

Ronwen Williams did not actually say this.
The quote appears to be fabricated and is circulating as a viral post on Facebook (and some groups), often with dramatic captions about "Africa’s support" after South Africa’s recent 2-0 loss to Mexico in the 2026 World Cup opener.
Why it's not real:
No credible sources: Major outlets (BBC, ESPN, FIFA.com, SABC Sport, etc.) covering the match and Williams’ comments do not report anything like this. Post-match reactions from Williams, coach Hugo Broos, and others focus on the game itself (e.g., red cards, performance, resilience), not blaming other Africans

KosiGee:
I’m not a great fan of Okoye but his positioning denied C Ronaldo a 1 on 1 situation that would’ve given Portugal their first goal. His sharp reflexes prevented at least 3 situations that would’ve resulted in goals.

the was why I said he is not consistent.

Ekaka14:
No, please his reflexes are his strong points and has kept us in this game so far ... I'm surprised you're faulting okoye's reflexes bro!

those two goals will not beat top keepers, because his reflex is not consistent. It's better this way.
O let me add, his positioning was poor. Or his positioning is not consistent

Dapagun:
Access Bank has come under public scrutiny following allegations by a customer over a disputed loan facility and difficulties in obtaining account records, prompting concerns about transparency and customer service practices within the financial institution.

The concerns were amplified by the President of the Bank Customers’ Association of Nigeria (BCAN), Dr. Uju Ogunbunka, who warned that unresolved customer complaints could affect the bank’s reputation and customer confidence.

The controversy stems from claims made by Lydia Okodogbe, who alleged that after securing a loan from the bank in November 2022, she repeatedly sought detailed statements relating to the facility but was unable to obtain them despite numerous requests spanning two years.

Okodogbe further alleged that while reviewing her loan account, she discovered an additional loan entry valued at about N2.5 million, which she insisted she neither requested nor approved.

According to her, the unresolved issues surrounding the account significantly disrupted her business activities, leading to major financial losses and workforce reductions.

“My business suffered significantly. At our peak, we employed about 400 people, many of whom have now lost their jobs because operations became unsustainable,” she said.

The dispute has triggered calls for regulatory intervention, with stakeholders urging the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to ensure that banking customers are granted access to critical account information and treated fairly during dispute resolution processes.

Commenting on the matter, Ogunbunka questioned why a customer’s request for account statements would remain unattended to for such a prolonged period, stressing that banks have a responsibility to provide such information when requested.

“The customer is not asking for anything extraordinary. Access to account statements is a fundamental right of every bank customer. If there is nothing to hide, the bank should provide the requested information and explain any outstanding issues,” Ogunbunka said.

He cautioned that failure to resolve legitimate complaints could erode trust among customers and encourage them to seek alternatives in an increasingly competitive banking environment.

The BCAN president also noted that customer dissatisfaction, if left unchecked, could subject the bank to greater public and regulatory scrutiny.

The development has renewed conversations about transparency, customer relations, and dispute-resolution procedures within Nigeria’s banking sector, where public trust remains a key factor in maintaining customer loyalty.

Responding to the allegations, Access Bank, through one of its officials, Hassan Dawodu, said the bank had already taken measures to address technical issues linked to the customer’s account and was still investigating the outstanding concerns.

However, no additional update had been provided by the bank as of the time the report was filed, leaving several questions surrounding the dispute unresolved.

Industry observers say the eventual resolution of the matter could influence public perception of the bank, particularly at a time when responsiveness and transparency are increasingly shaping customer expectations in the financial services sector.

This is not new. To get a printed statement from the bank too me 5 days.

I keep receiving loan offer messages as if I have been granted the loan. The day I will see the money in my account, them go don carry big market, that they won't be able to handle

Our goalkeeper is a basket. His reflex is too slow. Both goals, same slow reflex. My mother will do better than that

Head coach Arne Slot has been sacked by Liverpool after two seasons in charge.

The Dutchman, 47, guided the Reds to their 20th league title in his debut season but they have struggled during his second year, finishing fifth in the Premier League.

Recently departed Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola is the leading contender to replace Slot.

"That this was a difficult decision for us to make as a club goes without saying. The contribution Arne has made to Liverpool FC in the time that he has been with us has been significant, meaningful and - most importantly of all to supporters and ourselves - successful," Liverpool's owners Fenway Sports Group (FSG) said in a statement.

"As such, our appreciation for everything he has achieved could not be greater, particularly as it was underpinned by a work ethic, a diligence and a level of expertise which further underlined our view that he is a leader in his field.

"From the moment that we first encountered Arne, it was immediately clear that he is an individual who does not merely accept responsibility, he embraces it."

The decision was made by Michael Edwards, FSG's chief executive, and Richard Hughes, Liverpool's sporting director.

Throughout the season, Liverpool insisted that a change of head coach was not on the agenda, but after assessing the situation following the end of the season last weekend, the club's hierarchy believe the next phase requires a more front-foot, aggressive and urgent style of football.

Slot replaced Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool boss in 2024 after the German stepped down at Anfield after nine years as manager.

I tire o! This is a very good observation

Despite its tiny size and low profile, Liechtenstein has quietly grown into one of the most prosperous nations in the world.

Situated in Europe with a population of only about 40,000 residents, the country operates without its own airport and relies on the Swiss franc as its official currency.

Its remarkably strong economy is driven by highly successful banking, manufacturing, and global financial services sectors that bring in billions of dollars annually.

In addition to its financial success, Liechtenstein is incredibly safe and peaceful. The entire nation is managed by fewer than 100 police officers, crime is rare, and the prison population occasionally drops to fewer than 10 people.

Local residents generally prefer a quiet, private lifestyle over flaunting their wealth, even though the country's royal family holds a fortune that is reportedly larger than that of King Charles.

Ultimately, Liechtenstein demonstrates that a country does not need a massive territory or a loud global presence to achieve incredible success and stability.

Arsenal haters shame to you all.

Assistant Referee 1 (AR1): Dan Cook

VAR: Darren England

Assistant VAR (AVAR): Akil Howson

RO: Hawk-Eye replay operator

When the on-field team is able to hear the VAR discussion, the text is shown in bold.

VAR: Possible foul on keeper.

VAR: Watch has gone.

AVAR: Goal given.

AR1: I don't see any foul on the goalkeeper.

REF: On-field decision is goal.

VAR: Checking the on-field decision of goal.

VAR: OK, let's play it through, let's play it through. Let's just get a feel now.

VAR: So, the keeper there…

VAR: Then it's just a shot. So, it's literally just a possible foul on Raya, what I'm seeing in terms of that.

AVAR: Yeah, and to make sure he doesn't have it in his hand.

VAR: OK, let's get a tighter angle on the goalkeeper please.

VAR: On the Arsenal goalkeeper.

RO: Yeah.

VAR: This one. Slow it down, frame by frame.

VAR: For me, there is a foul. Potential foul with the arm.

VAR: His hand is holding his arm down. That's impactful, for me.

VAR: The left arm there, is holding, is across the body.

VAR: He's across the head and he's holding the left arm of Raya, there.

VAR: Which impedes his ability to get to the ball properly.

VAR: Doesn't look that impactful from that angle.

RO: I've got a pole-cam angle.

VAR: Give us pole-cam.

AVAR: It's like, Raya…

AVAR: Because that contact we've got there, we've got…

VAR: Just keep delaying. Just checking possible foul on the goalkeeper.

AVAR: You've got that straight behind him as well, look.

VAR: Yeah.

RO: I'll go back to the original angle.

VAR: Yeah.

VAR: But this happens before.

RO: Do you want to see it at full speed?

VAR: Yes please.

VAR: Is it impactful on the goalkeeper that, for me.

VAR: Go back to the second angle you showed me, the second angle.

RO: No problem, just going to look now.

AVAR: Can you do a split screen on both of them as well?

VAR: This one here, this one. Yeah, give us a split screen. That one and then the first angle.

RO: OK, goalline?

VAR: No, sorry, this one and this one, thank you.

AVAR: I don't like Trossard not facing the ball and you've got…

AVAR: I agree, it's impactful, it's just everything else that's going on as well.

AVAR: Let's say we're saying that's a foul, then what are we saying about Trossard's actions on the same player?

AVAR: What are we saying about Declan Rice behind

VAR: Yeah.

VAR: He still gets a hand to the ball, doesn't he? When he's getting to the ball.

AVAR: What's your initial opinion as you watched it?

VAR: I think, for me, we send him for an on-field review to look at the possible foul on the goalkeeper.

VAR: And then we get him to look at the other incidents as well. I think that's the best decision in terms of this.

VAR: OK.

VAR: Chris (Chris Kavanagh - REF), I'm going to recommend an on-field review for a possible foul on the goalkeeper but there are some other incidents to look at while you're at the monitor as well.

REF: OK.

VAR: So, I'm going to show you a possible foul on the goalkeeper.

RO: This angle?

REF: OK.

VAR: The left arm of Pablo comes across Raya and holds on to the left arm of Raya as he goes to win the ball.

REF: Yeah.

VAR: I'm showing you that now.

REF: I can see the clear holding on him across.

VAR: Yeah, but then I'm just going to show you some, obviously, other angles on that incident, of players.

REF: OK.

AVAR: You've got Declan Rice and you've got Trossard.

REF: I don't know what you're trying to show me, give me a clue.

VAR: Trossard on Pablo. Just if you look at Trossard on Pablo. Give me a better angle on that.

VAR: I'll get you a better angle.

REF: I don't think there's much in that at all, I'm happy with that.

VAR: Yeah, OK.

REF: That's nothing.

VAR: And then if you just want to consider the actions of Declan Rice on Mavropanos at the back.

VAR: But the foul happens on the goalkeeper before.

REF: Before it, so… After review, West Ham number…

VAR: 19.

REF: 19. Foul.

REF: Just confirm his number again for me.

VAR: 19.

VAR: Yeah, confirmed.

REF: Mic open.

REF: After review, West Ham number 19 commits a foul on the goalkeeper. Final decision is direct free-kick.

Please my people among these four beautiful cars which is the ''most'' reliable till date. Just reliability only because I have been hearing people talking much good about the 2012-2015 model why I have experienced 1998-2001 models which among is the most reliable anyday anytime.

See all the poor guys here. If you test 2012-2015 model, you will forget the rest. It's expensive that is why you settled for others.

The latest attack comes as Nigeria’s security crisis is increasingly under scrutiny both abroad and at home as general elections are less than a year away.

Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, the governor of Adamawa state, visited the scene of Sunday’s attack and “confirmed that no fewer than 29 people were killed in a deadly attack on Guyaku community in Gombi local government area”, his spokesperson said in a post on social media.

Local people also gave a similar toll.

Philip Agabus, a local resident, told Agence France-Presse: “Our people converged at a football pitch in Guyaku community ... [and] were attacked by insurgents who entered with guns and began shooting randomly.”

The dead were “youths, including some ladies that were watching football”, another resident, Joshua Usman, told AFP. “They also burned places of worship, houses and motorcycles.”

The state governor’s office wrote: “The attackers operated for several hours, killing dozens of residents, burning places of worship, and destroying property including motorcycles.” It cited a local community leader, Aggrey Ali.

Ireland produces a negligible amount of oil compared to Nigeria.

Current Production Levels.
Official data indicates that Ireland produces only about 600–670 barrels per day (b/d) of oil as of 2023–2024. This places the country near the bottom of global oil producers (around 109th position). As a result, Ireland imports the vast majority of the oil and petroleum products it consumes.

Despite this, on April 12, 2026, the Irish government announced a €505 million fuel support package aimed at easing the burden of rising energy costs on citizens caused by the recent war between Israel/US and Iran.

The measures include:
Petrol: Further reduction of 10 cents per liter.

Diesel: Further reduction of 10 cents per liter.

Green Diesel (Marked Gas Oil): Further reduction of 2.4 cents per liter.

Carbon Tax: The planned increase scheduled for May has been deferred until the October budget.

Additional targeted support includes:
A €100 million Fuel Subsidy Support Scheme for farmers, agricultural contractors, and fishers — providing approximately 20 cents per litre relief on green diesel based on 2025 consumption levels.

Enhanced support for haulage operators, school transport providers, and other commercial users.

Extension of the fuel allowance season by four weeks for about 470,000 households, offering an extra €38 per week through April.

This demonstrates a government actively intervening to shield its citizens from the impact of high energy prices caused by the war between Israel/US and Iran.

In contrast, Nigeria — one of the world’s major oil producers — continues to increase the cost of energy and petroleum products, placing even greater hardship on its already struggling population. At the same time, much of the national focus appears to be on election campaigns and political maneuvering rather than addressing the immediate economic difficulties faced by ordinary citizens.

This situation raises serious questions about the priorities and competence of those currently in power. This show we have bunch of politicians who only care about their pocket.

Botragelad:
It takes serious guts to do something like that, walking straight into an active enemy warzone to rescue your own people, even getting into a firefight.

I really look forward to this mission ending successfully. You don’t see a lot of militaries going to those lengths to bring their own back. That’s a strong nation right there.

the rescue was a success

One APC governor rides a very luxurious customized BMW as his official car in a state where insecurity is a watchword, just like Emperor Nubus also rides a highly luxurious customized American Cadillac as his official car.

They keep lying to their dumb supporters claiming they inherited a bad economy and their brainless supporters believe them.

Here, the Dutch PM rode regularly on bicycle while in office and his citizens enjoyed constant electricity, good education, affordable cost of living etc.

Which way Nigeria

I get 18hrs everyday as band A customer and I have reported the idiots to FCCPC and NERC. Two days ago, I got an apology call from IKEDC top manager but that’s not enough because they repeatedly breach our service rights they communicated to provide for us
