Democracy dies from within. Democracy dies in silence.

This is what happens when a significant portion of the voting population are ignorant of the key issues.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has reaffirmed his commitment to national unity and collective progress, declaring that “nobody is bigger than Nigeria, including myself as President.”

Says one thing and does another.

How does "careless" statements like this foster unity and a democratic environment?

This is one reason why I'm against Trump. His idea of leadership (or rulership as the case might be) does not encourage freedom of speech and democratic ideals, and such spread very quickly to the African leadership, which, worse off, has not provided sufficient benefits to their citizens despite decades of independence and supposed GDP growth.

Sad!

So sad. May the Lord comfort and strengthen his family through this period.

That's some massive infrastructural death trap. That bus-car escaped by a slim margin.

That exact spot would have been giving small signs in the past, but maybe it was ignored.

“Fr. Okechukwu was living in our house at Tachira, and I planned his kidnap because I needed N200,000. I invited some guys from other places to assist me in the operation, but I didn’t ask them to kill him,” he claimed.

Great lesson here. Actions have consequences - intended and unintended.

From 200,000 naira to God knows what punishment the law will visit on this young man.

Chai, Poverty is not good.

Senator (Comrade) Adams Oshiomhole, rest.

You made a good point, but the man has gone from this world, so rest.

Great job. Hopeful that the good people of Anambra and the government will maintain it as they continue to improve the other cities as well.

Nice one. Enjoy.

I hope corps' members will remember to use this influx wisely and take it as an opportunity to change their lives.

Even if it's not immigrants, some groups are ready to frame it as such, ensuring Europe further closes its doors to legitimate immigration.

Much of Gaza now lies in ruins after 15 months of fighting, which erupted on October 7, 2023 when thousands of Hamas-led gunmen attacked Israeli communities around the Gaza Strip, killing some 1,200 people, according to Israeli tallies, and abducting 251 hostages into Gaza.

The Israeli campaign in response has killed more than 48,000 people, according to Palestinian health authorities, and destroyed much of the housing and infrastructure in the enclave, including the hospital system.

This is the unpleasant cost of war and it's very unfortunate.

Now, Hamas is looking for global sympathy. Israel is using strength to insist on some form of revenge. Where is the solution?

This banditry and kidnapping activities should be reducing. You can only imagine how many don't make it to the news.

This must not lead to a break down of law and order in the land.

Olu ti sanwo. More power Mr Governor!

Quite unfortunate for her. Hope she and the child are safe?

But is she not aware that this was super risky based on Trump winning since last November?

Look before you leap.

Check your reasons. Check your heart (talk to your maker). Check your resources (skills, network and funds).

So that you don't come online later and lament like this lady.

No lies.

But at the end, everyone has to make their fate. Life waits for no one.

The confusion with this fuel importation scheme is alarming.

It does not look like the truth is coming out anytime soon. Pathetic.

Distracting drama.

“I was there for 12 years, even in my younger days, and I’m still trying to look young, but people compliment you all the time, only that, women raise yourself, don’t be in a position that men will be talking to you anyhow”.

This is no justification, but men will be men anywhere no matter how much women "raise" themselves.

Actually, without evidence, the distinguished Senator Natasha is just making a lot of noise and drama.

The All Progressives Congress lords said they had resolved the Lagos Assembly crisis. This stands truth on its head. What they did was a brazen attack on democracy and an abuse of their privileges. They made the assembly look spineless and toothless, portraying the lawmakers as no better than neophytes.

This is the key excerpt, but this is Nigeria and it's not exactly much that the public can do (except for Obasa's constituency to vote him out which is not likely by a long stretch), so let's move on.

It's good that Nigeria is meeting her oil output quota. Hopefully, this continues and with a stable price.

The key now remains that our leaders use this windfall very well, to serve the people and not their pockets.

May his soul rest in peace and may the good Lord comfort his family.

I'm guessing some are waiting for directives from Aso-Rock (or wherever they get their direction) to know how to spin this narrative.

The FX market alone has grossly affected businesses in Nigeria within the past 18 months, not to talk of individuals.

That being said, how did NESG come about these numbers?

Good, continue serving your people but this whole drama was unwarranted.

At that level, you can't make accusations without concrete irrefutable evidence, except you don't remember which part of the world you are.

That's sad. May their souls RIP.

Another caution to be careful on the roads, whether during the day or night.
