Why is FG demanding that another country grants Nigerians citizenship? It's not exactly a privilege or a right in diplomatic affairs. It's left to each country to see how naturalization works for them.

Our politicians sha. Just throwing mud everywhere.

Trump has asked Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to “prioritize humanitarian relief, including admission and resettlement through the United States Refugee Admissions Program, for Afrikaners in South Africa who are victims of unjust racial discrimination.”

There were no details of how the plan would be enacted as Trump halted refugee arrivals immediately after taking office.

Typical of Trump, no thoughts, no plans, no process, no clear strategy. Just banging and raving about to make a point. And since he's put loyalists and sycophants all around him, no one will tell him things need to be thought through to a proper end.

As expected.

Political power and leadership for China and Russia seems to be hanging on individuals. They have both held strong and increased in different capacities for about 2 decades. China's own is a bit better than Russia's because there is some hope for the CCP and their succession plans.

Other countries on the list still have the privilege of strong systems, not reliant on "one macho man". Maybe Trump can mess that up for the US in this his 4-year term, hopefully not.

Governors living in Abuja no be today. That's what they do. That's why they send representatives to most of their state functions.

Gillis-Harry said that “NNPC has no choice but to reduce petrol retail prices because it is not possible to see a product at a cheaper price and still go for NNPCL.”

No doubt, private universities are very plenty in this country and this policy just seems to reduce their spread and as per usual, for the FG to make more money.

This is very unfortunate. May his soul RIP and hopefully the assailants are caught and swiftly brought to justice.

As you go out to find what to eat, may you not jam what will eat you. Amen.

South Africa, land of the apartheid just some decades ago, gradually turning to the same despicable policies, just some few years later. This cannot foster development.

Peace and harmony are key prerequisites to development.

Hopefully, Trump's team will handle these situations quickly. Too many crashes and deadly mishaps (especially for commercial planes) just within the last 3 weeks of his administration. It's unfortunate.

But you can't come in guns blazing with layoffs, sacks, threats and still expect a system to function optimally.

That court display between NK and his lawyers was unnecessary. You can't win in the court of public opinion like this.

May the souls of the departed find rest and hopefully these terrorists are caught and prosecuted.

Sad though but the matter is very complex.

And even in the complexity, APC has the largest blame.

Infrastructure projects are all well and good for employment. The question continues to be, what happens after the project is concluded?

Construction workers are ready to enjoy some good funds

Everything is like force to these guys. Later on, they will cry wolf that they are being victimized

The University of Calabar Graduate of Biological sciences, explained why the harsh effects of President Tinubu’s reforms won't be a clog in the wheel of his re-election in 2027 under the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Somehow politics is involved. Next...

Really quick response and good job from the FCT Police. The vandals should be prosecuted to discourage others nursing such ambition.

Bishop, they will come for you!

And here they are.

Criticisms are necessary if we want to continue to have a democracy. The country can't afford not to have dissenting voices. It's particularly interesting that these dissenting voices are from the President's party. It's good and necessary for development.

But the criticisms must be done on policy issues and without insults and name-calling. It must be done in the best interest of the people and the country.

It's equally important that the response/rebuttal from elected and appointed officials in the government must be devoid of pettiness and silliness. We should not allow hateful rhetorics to be the order of the day if we want to continue to live in peace.

“Clearly, we must apologise to the Nigerian people. We have not succeeded in achieving everything we promised the Nigerian people, but that was not just because we were incompetent but because there were other structural impediments that have made things more difficult for us,”

Good you know that you have not succeeded in your promises. But those structural impediments are things you should have known cos it was your party that was there for the past 8 years.

This is what we're doing now Honorable Senate President, in a parliamentary session. Vibes and Inshallah. Pathetic!

This is not new. And we all know it's not new.

And it's not just low salary. It's low salary in the midst of plenty. Outrageous display of wealth by elected officials and even career government workers is bound to cause and encourage corruption.

That was close.

Is DEI the problem here also? Funny lots!

This is unfortunate though. May their souls RIP.

I feel for those Doctors. On one hand, they want to help. On the other, it seems they were not capable enough.

The final straw was a lawsuit, allegedly filed by Speaker Blessing Agbebaku against ousted local government chairmen, which Agbebaku publicly disavowed. The debacle left Okpebholo searching for a scapegoat, with Osagie—an inconveniently principled critic—taking the fall.

The Governor was desperate and seem to have made a serious miscalculation. Let's see how the Oba of Benin will respond.

This include business Travel Allowance (BTA)/Personal Travel Allowance (PTA), Overseas school fees and Overseas medical fees.

Meanwhile, the residents were said to have reported the incident to the police at the Satellite Town Police Station, but no action was taken

When evil is not quickly dealt with, it just leads to more havoc.

Waiting on the drama to ensue.

Funny thing is that Trump wanted to ban this same app back in 2020 or so. In fact, I dare say it was his push that led to this whole drama. So he's not actually "saving" TikTok. I believe Shou Zi and his team should know better.

Comments here alone show the level of distrust people already have for the government.

Godjone:
You said refinery will start working and when that is achieved, the price of PMS will drop significantly. Today, two of the refinery are already active but the prices keep souring higher.

It's better they stop making promises but no, lies upon lies. And when asked to explain, more lies.

NCC is more than able to manage this. There should be no increase in price, not at this time. It's very insensitive.

Question is: are they willing to?

Richtaiwo:
NNPC is shameless.

A govt funded cooperation getting worked up over a privately owned company for pecuniary purpose and by extension constituting a nuisance to Nigerians' expectations of reduction in fuel pump prices.

I'm not even much bothered about the private marketers' desperation because as it is now, it is everyone to himself. No one gives a damn about others any longer. It takes only a willing govt to bring their excesses under control. But the govt is obviously not ready for that.

That's the unfortunate reality.
