SSANU Gets 8 Months' Salary Arrears—But Is the Crisis Over?
Eight months' salary arrears have been released, but the SSANU dispute may not be completely settled!
The Federal Government has released eight months of salary arrears owed to members of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU), following the union's 14-day strike ultimatum.
However, SSANU President Mohammed Ibrahim says other outstanding entitlements, including two months of withheld salaries from the 2022 industrial action and arrears linked to salary increases, still need to be addressed.
The development raises a serious question: Why should workers have to threaten a strike before outstanding payments are released?
While the latest payment offers some relief, workers, students, and parents will be watching closely to see whether the remaining issues are resolved.
WHAT DO YOU THINK? Is the government doing enough, or should there be stronger accountability for delayed salary payments?

Cross River Gives 15 Magistrates Electric Cars: Smart Investment or Wrong Priority?
The Cross River State Government has reportedly provided 15 electric cars to magistrates under Governor Bassey Otu's administration to improve mobility, security and judicial efficiency.
While the move may improve the working conditions of judicial officers, it has also raised an important question: Is this the right priority when many residents are still struggling with poor roads, inadequate healthcare, unemployment and other economic challenges?
Electric cars could reduce fuel expenses and support a more modern public service. However, residents deserve to know how much the vehicles cost, how they will be maintained and whether charging facilities are available.
The government must demonstrate that this initiative delivers value for taxpayers while continuing to address the needs of ordinary citizens.
What do you think? Should Governor Bassey Otu be praised for investing in the judiciary, or should the government prioritise roads, hospitals, schools and job creation?
The report has raised concerns about road safety in Kebbi State. Nigerians will be looking for reliable information about the incident and any measures taken to protect passengers and other road users.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyKUTu0Ow1E Concern has emerged following a report that a busload of passengers was being chased by suspected bandits riding motorcycles along a road in Kebbi State, northwestern Nigeria.
The reported incident has raised fresh concerns about the safety of motorists and commercial transport passengers travelling through the region, where communities have faced security challenges involving armed groups.
However, details surrounding the incident remain unclear. The exact location, when the incident occurred, and the outcome of the reported pursuit have not been independently verified. It is also unclear whether anyone was injured or whether security operatives intervened.
The incident, if confirmed, would underscore the importance of strengthening highway security and protecting travellers from attacks by armed criminal groups.
Travellers are advised to seek reliable security updates before journeys through areas affected by insecurity and to report credible threats to the appropriate authorities.
Authorities are yet to be confirmed as having issued an official statement on this specific report. Further details are needed to establish exactly what happened.
Conclusion
The report has raised concerns about road safety in Kebbi State. Nigerians will be looking for reliable information about the incident and any measures taken to protect passengers and other road users.
Primate Elijah Ayodele, founder and leader of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, has made a fresh prediction about President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the 2027 presidential election.
In a statement reported on September 22–23, 2026, Ayodele said that if Tinubu wins re-election in 2027, he may not complete the second four-year term. He further suggested that Vice President Kashim Shettima could eventually take over the presidency.
Ayodele compared his prediction with the situation surrounding the late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, who died in office in 2010. He suggested that circumstances similar to those of the Yar’Adua administration could potentially result in a change in leadership.
The cleric also made claims concerning Tinubu’s health and urged the President and his family to pay attention to his wellbeing. However, those health-related claims have not been independently verified and should not be regarded as a medical assessment.
Ayodele's comments have generated reactions because they touch on one of the most closely watched issues in Nigerian politics: the 2027 presidential election and the possibility of Tinubu seeking a second term.
For now, Ayodele's statement remains a prediction, not an established future event. The outcome of the 2027 election and any developments during a future presidential term cannot be determined from the prediction alone.
As political activities ahead of 2027 continue, Nigerians will be watching developments involving Tinubu, Shettima, the ruling APC and opposition parties.

Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has sparked discussion after saying that, if he were president, he would announce a six-month amnesty window for terrorists and bandits to surrender their weapons.
His position raises a difficult question: Can negotiation and amnesty help bring an end to Nigeria’s insecurity?
Supporters of dialogue may argue that giving armed groups an opportunity to surrender could encourage disarmament and create a pathway toward peace. However, critics may question whether amnesty could undermine accountability, especially for individuals accused of serious crimes.
Any proposed surrender program would therefore need clear conditions, including genuine disarmament, careful security screening, protection for victims and communities, and appropriate legal accountability.
Ultimately, Sheikh Gumi’s statement has reopened an important national conversation about whether Nigeria’s security challenges can be addressed through a combination of military action, negotiation, rehabilitation, and justice.
What do you think? Should Nigeria consider a structured six-month surrender window for terrorists and bandits?
Social media activist VeryDarkMan (VDM) has reignited discussions surrounding the ongoing controversy involving TMT Travels and Tours and Nigerians who say they paid money for visa and travel-related services.
More than 200 complainants were recently reported to have approached the police with statements, receipts and transaction records concerning their dealings with the travel company. Earlier reports also documented allegations involving millions of naira and undelivered visa services. These claims remain allegations and have not been established by a court.
VDM has also questioned the role of influencers and celebrities who previously promoted TMT Travels. Among the personalities he mentioned are Prophet Rolex, Apama Nolly and Okwuluara Ndi Igbo.
Prophet Rolex has since apologized to people who may have patronized TMT after seeing his endorsements. He said he served as an ambassador between 2022 and 2024 but denied knowing about any alleged fraud or being involved in visa processing or financial transactions.
A Warning to Nigerians
The controversy has renewed concerns about trusting celebrity endorsements without independently checking the businesses or products being promoted.
For Nigerians seeking visas, overseas jobs or travel opportunities, it is important to verify companies, demand proper documentation, keep payment records and avoid making large payments based solely on an influencer's recommendation.
The TMT case is still subject to investigation, and the allegations should not be treated as a criminal conviction.
What do you think? Should influencers be held responsible when businesses they promote later face serious allegations?
