Niger Governor to Fulani: "I Will Not Be Afraid to Tell You the Truth – Most Abducted Victims Say It's Fulani" – Bago Sacks All Fulani District Heads Over Alleged Role in Insecurity
THE HOUSE MUST NOT TURN CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM INTO A CLOSED-DOOR AMBUSH
The conduct of Speaker Tajudeen Abbas and the leadership of the House of Representatives during the constitutional review proceedings raises serious questions about transparency, responsibility and respect for democratic governance.
A State Police Establishment Bill is not an ordinary piece of legislation. It seeks to alter the architecture of security, redefine the relationship between federal and state authorities, and place enormous coercive powers closer to governors and local political structures.
Such a proposal demands the highest level of scrutiny.
Instead, Nigerians are watching a process that appears rushed, poorly explained and dangerously detached from meaningful public participation. A constitutional amendment of this magnitude should never be treated as a routine motion to be forced through the chamber for political convenience.
State police may offer solutions to some of Nigeria’s security challenges, but without strong safeguards, it could also create new dangers. What prevents governors from turning police formations into instruments of political intimidation? Who guarantees professional recruitment, adequate funding and operational independence? What protections will exist for opposition figures, journalists, activists and ordinary citizens?
These are not minor details. They are the heart of the debate.
The House leadership should have opened the process to security experts, constitutional lawyers, civil society organisations, state governments, traditional institutions, labour groups and the Nigerian public. The draft should have been published, examined and debated thoroughly before any attempt at passage.
Legislative speed is not the same as legislative wisdom.
When lawmakers rush a sensitive constitutional alteration without adequate safeguards, they do not strengthen democracy. They weaken public confidence in it.
Speaker Abbas and the House leadership must understand that constitutional review is not a private negotiation among political elites. The Constitution belongs to the people, and every alteration must reflect informed public consent.
The opposition in the House must also rise above silence and complacency. This is not the moment for members to behave like spectators while a law with far-reaching consequences is pushed forward. They must demand transparency, insist on clear safeguards and defend the public’s right to participate.
Nigeria needs security reform, but it must be reform built on accountability, federal balance and protection against abuse.
A State Police Bill imposed without serious scrutiny may solve one problem today and create ten more tomorrow.
The House must pause, publish the full details, conduct genuine public hearings and allow Nigerians to make meaningful input.
Anything less is not constitutional reform.
It is political convenience disguised as national security.

US Firm Shares Evidence Of Forged Donald Trump’s “Thank You” Letter As Tinubu Govt Continues To Drag Nigeria’s Name Into International Disgrace https://t.co/tRuo2gAJRL
He accused Ali Ndume of being a mediator between terr0rists & Nigerian Government.
He accused Tinubu of releasing money for ransom payment to terr0rists.
He accused government of blocking the media from reporting the incidents.
He said he has evidence for all.
GOOSEBUMPS 😭😭
While a U.S. senator is publicly calling out Tinubu, the APC government is busy promoting fake Trump appreciation letter whose authenticity has been questioned. Nigerians, can you see the contrast?
As Chief of Staff, he was involved in writing election results in Rivers State, yet he is still walking free today. This is why we must take the 2027 general elections very seriously.
Say No to APC Government.
We need Democracy in this country.
“What law is the Federal government and Wike in Abuja using to hand over free houses and lands to Judges because we will challenge that.
It is discriminatory and illegal. If you provide for judges, what about the other citizens?”

Those Forfeiting Their Assets Are Those Who Have Left Government — Amadi
If Malami was still working with this government nothing will happen to him. The senate president has EFCC cases that isn’t progressing, almost everyone in this administration have unprogressive cases. Oftentimes the war against corruption is a political fight back, because if corruption is to be fought truthfully a transparent and accountable systems needs to be setup.

Let's not forget that Zidane, the young man from Southern Kaduna, was arrested by the authorities, and sentenced to death for finding the courage to defend his community against Fulani jihadists.
He's still on death row in Kaduna prison.
Self defence is not a crime. Zidane should be released immediately.
No Sharia Law In Burkina Faso- Traore
“I am a Muslim, but everyone in Burkina Faso has the right to practice their own religion. There will never be Sharia law in this country.
“To those Burkinabè studying Sharia law in Saudi Arabia, do not return to Burkina Faso. Instead of acquiring technological knowledge and skills that can help develop our country, you chose to study Sharia law. Stay where you are, you won't be allowed back here- President Traore
Power means nothing if the people cannot have peace, live in unity, and are dying of starvation.
