The Minority Leader of the Kaduna State House of Assembly, Hon. Ali Kalat from Jema'a Constituency, along with Hon. Danlami Usman Stingo of Kajuru Constituency and Hon. Shehu Abubakar Nulge from Birnin Gwari Constituency, have all decided to leave the PDP and join the APC.

Peter Mbah, governor of Enugu state, says President Bola Tinubu’s reforms have stabilised the nation’s economy.

In a message marking the anniversary of Nigeria’s independence, Mbah congratulated citizens on “the proud milestone” while calling for optimism and unity in the face of present challenges.

He assured that the Tinubu administration’s economic policies and citizens’ huge sacrifices would ultimately pay off if the nation stays the course.

Mbah said although the anniversary may be low-key, it does not eliminate Nigeria’s giant strides as an independent nation.


“At 65, our independence is a reminder of what we can achieve as a people when we are united. It is also a reminder that progress demands sacrifice, and that tomorrow is shaped by the choices we make today,” he said.

“The commemoration of our 65th independence anniversary may understandably be low-key, but the significance of the strides we have made as a nation is by no means underwhelming.

“Those strides are manifest in the remarkable achievements we have recorded across key sectors.

“They reflect as well in the bold reforms of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu that have brought stability to the Nigerian economy. The sacrifices may be huge today, but there is no doubt that the end will vindicate the decisions if we stay the course.

“As we raise our flags today, let us renew our covenant to Nigeria; let us embrace the spirit of unity, and let us uphold the optimism that has carried us this far.”

The governor assured of his administration’s commitment to an inclusive development model that leaves no one behind.

He said Enugu is on the pathway to exponential economic growth.


“In Enugu State, this Independence Day is a fitting occasion to recommit to our pledge to make inclusion the cornerstone of government policy; to create wealth and deploy it for the benefit of everyone in Enugu State. We are staying the course. And no one will be left behind,” he said.

“From moribund assets roaring back to life, to Ndi Enugu enjoying a resounding sense of security of lives and property, our children transitioning to 260 Smart Green Schools, our rural communities accessing modern healthcare courtesy of our completed or ongoing 260 Type 2 Primary Healthcare Centres.

“Ndi Enugu commuting conveniently and affordably via our modern transport system and infrastructure… Enugu State is no doubt on the pathway to assured turnaround and exponential economic growth.”

Ali Ndume, senator representing Borno south, says President Bola Tinubu should dissolve the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) if the union continues to “serve private interests” rather than the public good.

On Saturday, the PENGASSAN instructed its members to embark on a nationwide strike immediately over Dangote refinery’s dismissal of “over 800 workers”.

The Dangote refinery said the industrial action embarked upon by the union was aimed at weaponising hardship against Nigerians.

Commenting on the development while appearing on Prime Time, an Arise Television programme, on Monday, Ndume said he has long opposed “so-called unionism” that prioritises the benefits of a few individuals at the expense of the country.

“This PENGASSAN is supposed to serve the interest of Nigerians, and their profession has to do with petroleum product that affects everything,” the lawmaker said.

“This is Nigeria, which is supposed to be a free country. You can’t force someone to be in the union.”

The senator criticised the union for attempting to “impose demands” on the Dangote refinery.

“Dangote is a private businessman who established a refinery. You can’t come and impose anything on a private individual. If you want to be a union, then stay out of Dangote,” he said.

Ndume accused PENGASSAN of holding Nigerians “by the neck,” saying the workers do not own the oil or gas resources.

The senator questioned the union’s silence during critical moments in the oil sector.

“They are just workers. How can they be asking for more than the owners?” he asked.

“Where were they when the subsidy was removed and the fuel price rose to N1000? Where were they when the refineries stopped working and we were depending on imports?”.

He urged Tinubu to take firm action and dissolve the union.

“The best thing is for the president to sign an executive order calling them off. He has the right to dissolve them. In this case, I don’t mind if he acts like a dictator because some situations require very drastic measures,” he said.

Wike Rivers people have abandoned you, even though you are too megalomaniac to admit it.

Everybody hanging around you are just their to take the money you are spending to maintain influence..

I am worried that APC is now a threat in Rivers State.
