https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4KEPpe6nYhg?si=rZjeseVSvZK3uhqs Confirmed: Anthony Joshua Involved in Serious Car Crash in Nigeria British boxing star Anthony Joshua was involved in a road traffic collision on December 29, 2025, along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway in Makun, Ogun State, Nigeria. The accident occurred around 11 a.m. local time when a Lexus SUV carrying Joshua (as a rear passenger in a two-vehicle convoy) collided with a stationary truck. Key Details from Reports Two people (reportedly occupants in Joshua's vehicle, including the front passenger and another beside the driver) died at the scene. Joshua sustained minor injuries; he appeared dazed and in pain but was conscious. He was taken to a hospital for treatment, and authorities have described his condition as stable/non-life-threatening. Eyewitness accounts and police statements (including from Ogun State Police) confirm the incident, with investigations ongoing into the cause (possible factors like a tire burst mentioned in some reports). Joshua was in Nigeria on holiday following his recent victory over Jake Paul on December 19, 2025.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Za2yVvRoH2g?si=S5fALevopUtJWtJr On December 23, 2025, during a media chat in Ibadan, Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde publicly explained his fallout with FCT Minister Nyesom Wike. Makinde alleged that during a private meeting attended by himself, President Bola Tinubu, Wike, and others (including the President's Chief of Staff), Wike volunteered to "hold the PDP" (i.e., weaken or control the opposition Peoples Democratic Party) for Tinubu ahead of the 2027 presidential election. Makinde said he was shocked, as the President did not request this, and it went against their prior agreements from the G5 governors' era (when both supported Tinubu in 2023 against PDP's Atiku Abubakar). Makinde emphasized that while Wike is free to back Tinubu, he (Makinde) will not, citing concerns for PDP's survival and multiparty democracy. This allegation fueled speculation about PDP's internal crisis and Wike's influence. Wike's Response (December 29, 2025) In a media parley in Port Harcourt today, Nyesom Wike directly refuted Makinde's claim: He called it a "blatant lie". Wike noted that Makinde has never addressed him casually as "Wike" before—this was the first time, implying familiarity or disrespect in the allegation. He described Makinde's statement as "unfortunate" and suggested Makinde lacks the courage to openly declare presidential ambitions (hinting Makinde is positioning himself for 2027 within PDP). Wike also implied Makinde is frustrated, tying it to ongoing PDP leadership battles. Wike contrasted their career paths: He entered politics early for power (becoming LGA chairman in 1999), while Makinde built wealth as a contractor first. |

Seyi Tinubu (son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and a barrister/businessman) received the title Okanlomo of Yorubaland. This title translates to "the beloved child" or "one dear to the hearts of all Yoruba people," symbolizing a custodian of Yoruba values, unity, cultural heritage, and affection within the Yoruba race. Senator Abdul'aziz Yari Abubakar (former Governor of Zamfara State and current Senator representing Zamfara West) received the title Obaloyin of Yorubaland. This is described as an Eso Class chieftaincy title (a decorated military command rank, second to the Oyo Mesi kingmakers), representing love, compassion, justice, guardianship of the realm, and a bridge between physical and spiritual realms.
