Is Tinubu or his wife from lagos ??

Christlike01:
I’m from the Dosumu lineage — a descendant of Eshugbayi Eleko, who reigned from 1901 to 1925, and again from 1931 to 1932. I’m a true blue blood — a royal from Lagos Island. I must also add that I’m a descendant of Oduduwa, with ancestral roots in Ile-Ife.

I can accept this white lady as a Lagosian, but I can’t — and will never — accept an Igbo person as a Lagosian, regardless of their migration history. I am Yoruba; I share nothing in common with anyone from across the Niger River.

Goodvibes007:
Indeed.
Thousands of likes and shares on X.

What an absolute legend!

His son is a SAN.

Worry about your own family that doesn't have any worth.

Awolowo had a charade trial no doubt but the turning around to betray the eastern region during the brutal civil war didn't end well for him.

AMINDA:
Here we go again with the ethnic baiting that all pseudo-spokesmen and supporters of the president are now known to exhibit. This is a coordinated strategy for Tinubu to use hate to galvanise vote, especially in his Southwest region. Online, Agbadorians are denying the usage of the word "Owambe" now, claiming it's "Owanbe" and accusing an artist of cultural misappropriation just because she's Igbo. In the end, the chickens will eventually come home to roost.

kingbee90:
Hello ooo!
Tinubu's daughter is also in London too.

Where was Peter obi before he became governor and where was Wike before politics…


My happiness remains that both families have already secured their children’s future abroad while you defend your oppressors hoping to be paid 30k naira … continue deluding yourself

Aregbe, Fayemi and the fake FAYOSE and co can't even win their polling unit not to talk of winning their local government. Let that comment slide bro, there is enough buckets for their tears after 2027 election.

LagosOrigin:
Good

I love this .

Let all those who support irresponsible government in Nigeria because of tribalism only to run back to America can now stay back in Nigeria and enjoy the useless president or government that they supported.

No more America .

A self-acclaimed Nigerian king in Ghana attempted to shake hands with a Ghanaian king during a royal event What happened next got people talking as he was stopped by a royal official while trying to shake the Ghanaian king As the video went viral, netizens shared their observations about the embarrassing scene captured in the clip

The self-acclaimed Igbo king in Ghana, Eze Chukwudi Jude Ihenetu, was blocked from greeting the King of the Ashanti people, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, also known as the Asantehene.

Eze Ihenetu had attended the burial of the queen mother of Ashanti, Asantehemaa, which was being presided over by the Ashanti king.

A video showed the Igbo king and his entourage arriving in grand style for the event.

In another video, Eze Ihenetu faced an embarrassing situation when he tried to greet the Ashanti king.

The Igbo king tried to shake the Ashanti king but was blocked by the king’s linguist from doing so. As reported by Yen. com. gh, Otumfuo’s linguist, who was directing affairs, stopped the Igbo King from shaking the Asante monarch’s hand as other people had done.

The Ga Traditional Council has raised alarm over a planned event titled “2025 Igbo Day in Ghana/New Yam Festival” scheduled for Sunday, 21st September 2025, at the Efua Sutherland Children’s Park.

According to the Council, the event, organized by Eze Dr. Amb. Chukwudi Jude Ihenetu, could disturb peace and security within the Ga State.

Referring to a previous press release issued on 9th July 2025, the Council reminded the public that the said individual had already been cautioned against holding traditional and cultural festivities under the guise of importing Igbo culture into Ga land.

HRM King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II has requested immediate intervention to halt the event and maintain order within the Ga State.

President Donald Trump signed an executive action on Friday to impose a $100,000 application fee for H-1B visas — in an effort to curb what his administration says is overuse of the program.

“We need great workers, and this pretty much ensures that that’s what’s going to happen,” Trump said from the Oval Office, where officials detailed how the measure would incentivize companies to employ American workers while still providing a pathway to hire highly skilled foreign workers in specialized fields.

The proclamation will restrict entry under the program unless accompanied by the payment.

In a separate order, Trump also directed the creation of a “gold card” immigration pathway that he said would fast-track visas for certain immigrants in exchange for a hefty fee. The policy will expedite visas for foreigners who pay the US $1 million, while allowing a company to pay $2 million to speed up the process for a foreign worker that it sponsors.

The moves mark the latest in a series of efforts from the administration to crack down on immigration and place sharp new limits on the types of foreigners allowed into the country. They threaten to significantly impact industries that depend heavily on H-1B workers.

The H-1B visa is a work visa that’s valid for three years and can be renewed for another three years. Economists have argued the program allows US companies to maintain competitiveness and grow their business, creating more jobs in the US.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told reporters on a call Friday evening that the administration came to the fee of $100,000 per year, plus vetting costs, after talking with companies.

He noted that the payment structure is still under discussion with the Department of Homeland Security, in terms of “whether we’re going to charge the $300,000 up front or $100,000 a year for the three years.”

Trump’s stance on the H-1B visa program has fluctuated, and the issue has sharply divided his supporters at times.

The president restricted access to foreign worker visas during his first term and has targeted the H-1B program in past remarks – but during the 2024 campaign, he signaled openness to giving some foreign-born workers legal status if they graduated from a US university.

Trump also defended the program last December, telling the New York Post that he’s “a believer in H-1B.”

Godjone:
I just dey pity this man and I don't know why. Wike has taken control of this man's life

advocatejare:
He has accepted Wike to be his boss and leader. He shouldn’t have bitten the hands that fed him in the first place. Where were those cheering him to be fighting Wike, when he was suspended ? They all disappeared and made him lose 6 whole months from his tenure.


The State assembly members he didn’t want to work it, he has no choice than to work with them now same with the LG election he didn’t want to conduct as Wike wanted has now being conducted while he was on suspension.


In the end, Fubara is the sole loser in this issue. People should learn from his mistakes!

Orokojasper:
With this broadcast,Fubara has become enemy of some who hitherto said he is the best thing after jollof rice,they will henceforth call him so many names and tag him a coward....Just watch out.

Kingpele:
One thing I have come to appreciate south east ,is that no former governor dare challenge a sitting governor without a bleeding nose but then let peace reign
