Nominated Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC has proposed the use of drones to monitor elections.
Amupitan made the remark on Thursday while answering a question put forward to him by the lawmaker representing Abia North, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu.
Senator Kalu, who was worried over the deteriorating security situation in the country, asked what Amupitan would do to ensure that sensitive election materials are safely transported to polling units.
Las las. We know you’re working for APC but your plans will all backfire
Lol, they kuku have. The one they have is what gives them direction to come Nairaland everyday and be dishing their usual gibberish. And trust me, Nairaland has now become a dustbin that encourages their shenanigans.
Sajio: That’s really commendable! However, I believe there’s still more that can be done—especially initiatives that directly impact Niger Delta youths. For instance, establishing major IT hubs in Delta (Asaba and Warri), Bayelsa, and Port Harcourt would be a game-changer. Such centers would positively engage many of our young people. Even when they can afford to learn tech skills, they often have to relocate to Lagos because there aren’t enough opportunities or facilities here in Delta State. I truly hope @Tompolo comes across this message.
Mabuggi88: Hmmm, na waoo.....So this is the level the money was shared, if he can donate 10b, imagine the amount of those pipeline contracts😏
If he can donate that amount, imagine how much each gomina of Nigeria has stolen so far. Or a senator, or your bobo Chicago in Aso Rock with his wife and their pikin wey wan distribute 1 million bibles to hungry masses. Imagine the amount of stolen fund they have all stolen together. That’s to tell you that they have no pity, awọn merciless looters.
I’ll be happy if “they” can help me do the needful among them, especially what is going on in the mind of hungry masses of Nigeria. Nairaland will be behaving like asinwin lately, deleting my comment here and there. Ori yin ma gbalẹ someday🥳
Almost everyone knows this about him. Even the APC that hire him for the Joseph Goebbels’s job in Nigeria know him as a smooth criminal and pathetic liar. This article is just medicine after death.
samwash: I nor know say this governor don dey practice cultism. You must fly your logo before you enter State Executive Council meetings. This same government na dey demolish cultist house for the state. The same person wen dey fight against cultist na dey practice cultism.
Tranquill: Oga all over the world Presidents have power to give pardon to convicts.
There are many considerations before this power is excised and in many cases they attract criticisms.
There are political, economic, social and even family considerations when using these powers so not every deserving person will benefit and not all those who benefit are deserving from everyone’s point of view.
It’s purely the President’s prerogative.
When Joe Biden pardoned his convicted son or Bill Clinton pardoned his own brother and political supporters, you think there are no Americans who are more deserving of pardon than they?
The reality of the world is that all fingers are not equal.
In this particular case, the lady has two children that will grow up without a father who was murdered by their own mother.
The man’s family felt they shouldn’t deprive their grandchildren of motherly care even if their mother murdered their own son.
They explored the available route of getting a pardon for her from the president.
Who are you to now say that the president is wrong to issue the pardon?
I hear you. You can as well use this strength to juxtapose Nigeria economy with other working economies of different countries in the world, by that time, I’ll take you serious.
Fiscus105: If the same macaroni appointed as ordinary PA Today, he would sing hosanna more than anybody.
One thing about Nigeria is, if we are not opportune to be in govt, we say all sorts of things,and quickly become Messiah for masses.
Are you him? Start speaking for yourself. You know him? By the way, do you know how many appointments he has turned down lately? All these gen z on Nairaland sha.
malali: Instead of lowering the bar, we should be innovating how Mathematics is taught, making it more visual, practical, and connected to real-world creativity.
Telling students that a credit in Mathematics no longer matters is equivalent to telling them, “You can succeed without understanding logic.” Within a few years, thousands will proudly say, “I’m an arts student — I don’t need math.” That mindset kills curiosity and limits the nation’s intellectual evolution. Mathematics isn’t just about numbers; it’s the language of critical thinking, technology, and innovation. Every global visionary, from Elon Musk to China’s AI engineers, is rooted in mathematical reasoning. That’s China’s real superpower: a generation trained to think numerically and computationally.
We should be asking, “How can we make math easier, more relatable, and exciting to learn?” — not “How can we avoid it?”
When a nation removes Mathematics from its educational DNA, it silently agrees to import intelligence from countries that didn’t. Dont forget, we are slowly pushing for self employment in Nigeria, as the government doesn't have enough jobs to go around. How can you be self employed and you do not have a good grasp of mathematics ? You will fail. There is no millionaire or billionaire in the world hat doesn't know mathematics very well.
You get time to dey explain to people trapped in their delusions and ignorance.
As a student of Arts, this development is too bad. Mathematics is life ooo. Personally, I started doing more of Mathematics when I was in university even when it’s not in the line of my feed. APC is just reducing the bar day by day. Okay now, gbe soke, it’s alright😂
esnbrutality: In the Lagos Tinubu built... people are selling phones to survive.
The girl sef na Yoruba woman...will she now say it's IGBOs that made TINUBU not help her situation?
Anyway, God will keep Blessing the IGBOs, while those that prosecute them will keep having lamentations and crying in their enclaves.
Let oluremi Tinubu help her...
Awon sophisticated
I’m a Yoruba who deeply love the Ibos and they will always be my best tribe in Nigeria due to their resilience and the way they are being treated in Nigeria but your comment is unnecessary berating her. I hope you don’t experience what is meant to be hunger. What if she didn’t partake in the last previous election. I believe we can do better please.
APC and lies. Was it not here they posted some information going round with their manipulative “factcheck” whatsoever that confirms Wike’s presence in the meeting. Not surprised though😂😂😂
In order news, my friend in one of our conversation yesterday, said he’s surprised by Tinubu not inflicting pains on Nigeria as he expected. He said he expected him to do more than this, he continued by saying Tinubu fall his hand and na kése-kése is what we still see, the father of kése-kése which is kàsà-kàsà is still coming from Tinubu😂😂😂
CoronaVirusPro: The dead party is still blaming His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) for their own incompetence and irrelevance.
Did the APC mandate or threaten defectors? Defectors had the foresight to realize that the party was dead and had to salvage their relevance and political career.
PDP should rebrand and delve into agriculture cos their political relevance is dead and buried.
They should start-up something like “PDP FARMS” where they can specialized in cat fish or oil palm.
Looking forward to when you will speak the truth and not being blinded by peanuts.
Akinpresident: If you tell this woman now to invest small money in tech so she can manage every aspect of her business, she'd feel you're out to rip her.
This should serve as a deterrent to all business owners.
Invest in tech. It saves a whole lot.
Must everyone invest in tech? Must everyone think like you? Why not diversification? You people and weird thinking sha.
I knew that there’s no way they would have granted the lady pardon without her late husband’s family being a party to it, considering the circumstances.
Some people believe they can cry more than the bereaved.
I hope this issue is finally put to rest.
I bet you don’t know what you’re saying. You think it’s about the family abi? A government is laying bad precedent and you think it’s about politics right? Like I said: The trees in the forest look at the axe and said it is one of them because the axe is made of wood until the axe started cutting down trees in the forest.

Dem don give baba settlement.
The trees in the forest look at the axe and said it is one of them because the axe is made of wood until the axe started cutting down trees in the forest. The same way I’m looking at people who keep supporting this disaster of a maladministration of that Chicago cocaine addict
Zico5: This man true identity played out after election. He could not even hide it since day one. He is totally against what he rallied the whole country to fight against during GEJ era. How on earth can you pardon someone that intentionally killed her husband no matter how the pressure is. So others should take the same route and begin to kill their spouses since there is way around it so far you are powerful. It's such a shame that I casted my vote for this failure.
His true identity didn’t play out. We already know him before then especially when he became the Lagos state governor. The joke on you people is that you listen to mainstream media, government news channels and private ones which have been bought byyour Chicago boy in the country. If I tell you that he controls more than 85 per cent of the major news channels in Nigeria. He has all of them in his pocket. He and APC are everything wrong with Nigeria.
