Tundun Abiola, one of the daughters of late MKO Abiola, had an outburst on national TV on Wednesday morning after one of the supporters of Bola Tinubu's presidential aspiration made a reference to her late father during an interview. Tundun had asked the Tinubu supporters to respond to the allegation made by a presidential aide, Babafemi Ojodu, that he has been threatened for not supporting the presidential aspirations of the National leader of the APC, Bola Tinubu. Responding to the question, Ayodele Adewale said ''Asiwaju will never send anybody to attack anybody and if anybody has said unprintable words against Mr Ojodu, the onus lies on him to prove that that person was actually from Asiwaju Tinubu and Mr Ojodu knows that Asiwaju will never do that. Asiwaju is very forgiving, even people who have wronged him. If you permit me, I will always refer to him because I preserve his history and I have always worked to make sure all he deserves is given back to him and that is your dad, Chief MKO Abiola. It was on the streets of Lagos when some Airfoce officers slapped him and abused him. He was attacked by some military ratings. the Mad dog incident. Chief Abiola never raised a finger. He never even fought the military hierachy. He took it in as a leader and he forgave them'' After a short break on the show, Tundun expressed her displeasure at the guest for speaking about her father's. ''I just had this really insulting encounter with our previous guest and I am furious. My father is not the one running for President. That was in 1993. Why was he raised randomly? That was completely out of order. I am completely furious. I can't even contain myself right now. I would defend my father. In recent times, I have been nauseated by the kind of revisionist history I have been subjected to. Everybody betrays that man constantly till today. How many times can you kill a man? What does he have to do with what we are discussing today? If their principal has not done enough to stand on his own two feet, that is hardly my fault or his fault. Invoking this man.... What on earth was that nonsense? Completely name-dropping. My feet are sore from people dropping my father's name constantly. Can you just stand on your own two feet if at all you have two feet to stand on'' Watching the video below; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhU1hXb7A9w

A heated exchange ensued on TV after Director-General of Bola Tinubu Support Management Council, Abdulmumin Jibrin was asked about his principal’s age and how he amassed his wealth. Arise TV journalist, Oseni Rufai who asked the question, stated that last he checked "Tinubu was an accountant at Mobil". He further asked how the former Governor of Lagos could amass so much wealth that "he could afford a bullion van" prior to an election at his home. Responding to the question, Jibrin stated that emphasis should be on what Tinubu has achieved, how he turned around the revenue of Lagos and infrastructural development. Again, he was asked ” how did Bola Tinubu make so much money that he had a bullion van in his home on election day. And how old is he?” Mr Jibrin in his response said: “When you continue to repeat the question, you will get the same answer. These are all trash from the internet that people put together and we will not elevate such conversation. “But when the campaign commences, we will bring out facts and figures before Nigerians but we will not create a narrative for them.” When he was asked again, he questioned the journalist’s professionalism while asking the interviewer to “tolerate his response.” “I responded, if you don’t like the way I responded to it, you move on,” he said. Mr Jibrin had earlier during the interview said being a good leader is not a function of age. He said; “You can be a young man and be a bad leader, a young man well educated and be a bad leader and you can be an old man of 70 years even above and be a very good leader…The most important thing is capacity and competence.” On the eve of the 2019 general elections, viral pictures on social media showed two bullion vans driving into Mr Tinubu’s residence. Tinubu later admitted the bullion vans were conveying money to his house, but defended his action, saying he did nothing wrong because he was not a government official.

Deeper Life church’s founder, Rev. William Kumuyi has reacted to claim of lowering his church’s “standard of holiness” following the people he invited for a program. Recall that a former Deeper Life Pastor, Gideon Akande had called out Kumuyi for inviting 'Philistines' to a program in the church. The Philistines according to Mr Akande are renowned entrepreneur and former Chairman of First Bank of Nigeria, Ibukun Awosika, gospel singer, Dunsin Oyekan, and co-founder of Andela, Iyinoluwa Aboyeji. Reacting to the claim, Kumuyi stated that he only invited people who are experts in their fields and who can connect to young people who the program is meant for. He also stated that he shouldn’t be looking at if those invited are members of his church, but rather at if they will impact and make young people greater than them in their field. Kumuyi further claimed that those accusing his church of lowering standard of holiness do not know the caliber of people who were invited, but are only judging them based on their own understanding and appearance. The Pastor also said though there is freedom of speech in the country, some people speak from an “undeveloped mind”. Watch the video; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unzpIoU_2E0

Anyhow they want to do the political maneuvering, they should make sure that justice prevails." He added: "The spirit of the Lord has asked me to say this because they have what it takes to plant a northerner.

Pleas to grant leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu a presidential pardon, has been shut down by President Muhammadu Buhari. Though President Buhari had in November 2021 promised to consider the request of some leaders from the South East region to release Kanu who is facing treason charges preferred against him by the Nigerian Government, in an interview with Channels Television which was aired on Wednesday Janaury 5, the Nigerian President said Kanu must answer for his actions over the years, especially while he was out of the country. Accusing Kanu of abusing his administration while in Europe "as if he was not a Nigerian", the President said he won't be interfering in judicial responsibilities. He said; “Nigerians know that I don’t interfere with the judiciary. “Let him be listened to. For those who are saying that we should release him, no we cannot release him. “There is a possibility of political solution; if people behave themselves, all well and good, but you can’t go to a foreign country and keep on sending incorrect economic and security problem against your country and thinking that you will never have to account for what you have been doing. Let him account for what he has been doing. “There is one institution that I wouldn’t dare interfere with – that is the judiciary. “Kanu’s case is with the judiciary, but what I wonder is when Kanu was safely in Europe abusing this administration and mentioning too many things, I never thought really he wants to voluntarily come and defend himself on the accusations. “So, we are giving him an opportunity to defend himself in our system, not to be abusing us from Europe as if he was not a Nigerian. Let him come here to us and then criticise us here.” The President also noted that he doesn't believe Nigerians really want the country to disintegrate as we are better off together. Buhari claimed that Nigerians make noise about separation because they want better things. Watch the video below; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpffmANlGo4

All of you who know me well in Imo state, I tried one time or the other to contest election. In some cases, I won. In some cases, I did not win. And when I didn't win, I left back for my businesses. When I won, I served the people with all my heart. “I have many former Governors in Imo state, I have Governor Achike Udenwa. I have Governor Ikedi Ohakim. Emeka Ihedioha; former Governor, Okorocha; former Governor. But none of them want to take the whole State as a private property. “The difference between the other former Governors and Okorocha is that he is out of office but he still wants to be in office. Okorocha is a younger brother to me. I'm older than him, if not for anything, traditionally I deserve to be respected by him. I don't want to join issues with him. Let him just know that he is not the Governor and for the short period I will be here God-willing, he should allow me to be Governor," Uzodimma said.
