SLAP44: Lagos would have been a world class city if not that Tinubu continues to loot the state dry.
If Peter Obi was the governor of Lagos State for just 4 years, Lagos would be having enough budget to feed the whole of West Africa. But one man has ruined the city and made it poor, go to Ajegunle, and any other slums in Lages, Tinubu refused to spend state money on the state, preferring to stock his loot so he can use it to bribe the people whom he had made poor.

Salihu Tanko Yakasai (Peacock @dawisu) was the special adviser on new media to Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje of Kano. Like his father Tanko Yakasai (who was Shagari's presidential liaison to the National Assembly), he is very outspoken. He doesn't hesitate to speak his mind. This has often gotten him into trouble (just like his father often got into trouble).
He annoyed some Kanawa because he defended his boss, Abdullahi Ganduje during the dollargate scandal.
He also annoyed some Kanawa because of his criticism and mocking of the former Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, when the Emir had problems with Governor Ganduje.
However, he was sacked in February 2021 and detained by the DSS for criticising President Buhari again and asking him to resign after some school children were kidnapped by bandits. Ganduje Sacks Salihu Tanko Yakasai Over "Unguarded Comments"
His father said that his son was just beginning his journey and he stated that he was arrested 10 times. Salihu Tanko Yakasai then joked that he had 9 more arrests to go.
He was campaigning from the sunroof of a minivan yesterday when his convoy was overtaken by Governor Ganduje's convoy and people in both motorcades greeted each other. I

The Rivers State Police Command has launched a hunt for a 40-year-old man, Patrick Chukwu, who fled after killing his elder brother, Benedict Chukwu, in Elele-Alimini in Emohua Local Government Area of the state.
It was gathered that Benedict, a 44-year-old patent medicine shop owner, was shot dead by the suspect on Monday, February 13, 2023, during an argument over packing space.
Former General Secretary of Elele-Alimini Community Development Committee, Ambassador Joseph Asomeji, who confirmed the incident to newsmen, said trouble started when Patrick blocked a space where the deceased was about to park his motorbike in their family compound.
Both of them are my cousins. The issue was that the elder brother, the late Mr Benedict Chukwu, came home from his daily hustling to the family house where both of them lived,? he explained.
"The younger brother, Mr Patrick Chukwu used chairs to block access to where Benedict Chukwu was to carry his motorbike and cross.
"The late elder brother pleaded with the younger brother to allow him access to pass with his bike inside the family house where both of them were living, but the younger brother refused to remove the chairs that were blocking the road.''
Angrily, Mr. Benedict used his legs to kick the chairs out of the way, then the younger brother picked up a wedge to hit the elder brother.
But neighbours came out and removed the wedge from his hand. The younger brother went inside again and picked up a machete, the neighbours gathered him and collected the machete from him.
"As if that was not enough, the younger brother ran inside again and brought a hunter's gun and fired immediately at the elder brother's neck, killing him instantly.
While noting that the matter has been reported to the police, he said the deceased younger sibling took to his heels immediately after committing the crime.
"The incident is condemnable. We don?t know what came over him to have committed the offence. The fact remains that both of them are bloodily related. They are of the same parents. We condemn the act. Somebody who commits a crime must have to face the law,? he added.
The spokesman of the state police command, SP Grace Iringe-Koko, confirmed the incident.
The command is aware of the incident and investigation was ongoing. That is all I can say for now, she said.
Lifeinbits: Myself and my girlfriend have been dating for almost three years that she sometimes stays in my house too. I have always had the intention of traveling abroad but i don't know how, so last year my girlfriend brought the idea of traveling and how she wants to try US study route and i encouraged her to do so. I also supported her so much with my money by helping her to pay her application fee and TOEFL exam. While doing all these, we had a conversation and she told me that if she is able to get a fully funded offer that we will be going together and I will be going with her as dependent. Now my girlfriend has gotten admission but she is yet to apply for visa and she has changed plans. She does not want me to go with her rather she is advising that I should also use the study route ifi want to travel.
Note : we had the intentions of getting married but right now she doesn't want us to get marry.
Naijapromoter: The Governorship race in Akwa Ibom State has been rather interesting this time. There has been conversations about who will stand and who will not, even as all the aspirants who went through their respective party primaries continue to prance themselves around as the candidates.
Don’t even bother with the INEC website. Their last posted list is not up to date. They have rows for APC, for example still blank, whereas the Supreme Court has okay’ed Akan Udofia and Victor Antai. Also, the INEC row for PDP still has Umo Eno and Akon Eyakenyi, who have both been removed by a recent Federal High Court judgment.
So, after all the drama so far, come March 11th, who are those eligible to stand in the Governorship elections? And who is already out?
1. Obong Bassey Albert Akpan - YPP As of February 13, on Nigerians Decide, Bassey Albert wins the elections by a monstrous 250% gap with the immediate next runner up which is (erroneously Umo Eno of) PDP. His intimidating popularity was on display on his way from the correctional facility at Ikot Ekpene, having been locked up by well-known corrupted judgment; and his motorcade could not make a 20 minute journey to his house at Shelter Afrique in 5 hours - because the roads were jam-packed by singing crowds from Ikot Ekpene, through Ikono, Ibiono and Uyo. It is clear that this is the next Governor of Akwa Ibom State.
2. Akan Udofia - APC Like play, like play and only God knows what happened at the Supreme Court for Akan and Victor Antai to become the standard bearers for APC. But these 2 are cool guys. Only that, it is too late for them to campaign round the state. Many Akwa Ibomites do not even know if the APC will feature in the elections or not. The clear favourite remains Bassey Albert whose leadership is considered a clean break from the harsh arrogant administration of Udom Emmanuel.
3. Ezekiel Nya-Etok - ADC The architect has contested in the last 2 to 3 elections and lost. Before joining the ADC, he had run on the PDP platform, but of course, he is not of the same stuff as his former associates in PDP and APC, which is why he smoothly left for another party. He is cleared to run for Governorship.
4. Senator John James Akpan-Udoedeghe - NNPP Brave Senator Udoedeghe who recently exited the APC, a party he helped extend to Akwa Ibom State at formation, is running on the platform of the NNPP. He is popular for standing up to the scary administration of Godswill Akpabio in the early 2010s. Though funny and popular amongst Uyo locals, many had since turned allegiance to Albert of the YPP and Udo-Edeghe does not stand a chance.
5. Iboro Otu - AAC The widely-travelled fine and intelligent gentleman, Iboro Otu is once again running for Governorship, this time on the platform of the AAC. Together with Nya-Etok, Udoedeghe, Ekere Essien and Bassey Albert, Otu performed well at the Governorship debates organised by the NUJ, supported by Clement Isong Foundation and other partners. Though fanciful amongst cosmopolitan Akwa Ibom youths and intellectuals, he is far from the frontlines given his lack of experience and unpopular departure from some of the collective expectations of Akwa Ibomites. Of course, he also doesn’t have the wherewithal to pull through in elections like these.
Note that in the Governorship debates, both the PDP and the APC candidates pulled out last minute citing several laughable reasons. But everybody knew that their uncertainty on who would fly their respective flags occasioned the decision to withdraw. After the debates, Akan Udofia was announced as the rightful candidate for the APC - he would have cherished an opportunity to feature, actually - and Umo Bassey Eno’s attempt to appeal the High Court judgment that kicked him out of the race, was further thrown out.
The other candidates featuring in the race are listed below;
6. Emem Coffie - Accord Party 7. Abasiekeme Mfonobong Ekanem - AA 8. Dr. Ekere Essien - ADP 9. Ita Bassey Ekpo - APGA 10. Eyo Eyo Ekong - APM 11. Ephraim Mbaba - APP 12. Akaninyene Ekpenyong - BP 13. Uko Usen Okon - LP 14. Kubiat Bassey Etang - NRM 15. Sunday Francis Ekanem - PRP 16. Emem Monday Udoh - SDP 17. Nsikak Hogan Thomas - ZLP

FullBlastLight: “Close Down the School”: Mum Cries Out After Finding Out Her Daughter’s Hair Was Shaved at School
A mother has cried out on social media after finding out that a part of her daughter's hair was scraped at school.
"My two-year-old daughter is attending sunshine group of school. I took my child to school yesterday morning and nothing happened to her. Then I went to church.
"I went to school to pick her and realised someone has scraped my baby's hair at the back and incision two lines at the spot. Please help me they are telling me that their CCTV didn't work yesterday. The school authorities are not doing anything about finding the person who did it.
"Oya provide the hair that you scrapped, they couldn't provide. Who put an incision in her hair? No explanation. Let's see the CCTV. It's not working. These people want to see crazy."
"This is obviously not an adult school, and children don’t make use of bIades, This should be taken serious. Suggesting to sign 7 years undertaking isn’t wise, What if something eventually happens to the baby after 7 years? Honestly that school needs serious investigation."
