Education is about building the minds and unlocking potentials. As the world marks the International Day of Education, it's time we rethink the process of knowledge acquisition to liberate our society from the shackles of poverty and bringing about a lasting peace globally and in our nation, Nigeria. It's time to refocus on education for the purpose of human progress and development; to make a shift towards a value added, problem solving and result oriented acquisition of knowledge.

Good evening Nigerians - Home and abroad,

Today, in unity with my friend, UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan @MohamedBinZayed , we have initiated a new era of collaboration and friendship between our nations - Nigeria and the United Arab Emirates.

We've also laid a robust foundation for substantial investments in various sectors in Nigeria, a testament to our shared vision for a prosperous future.

Together, we are committed to building bridges and fostering a friendship that stands the test of time. As part of our discussions, the following have been reached:

1. Immediate lifting of the visa ban placed on Nigerian travelers by the UAE.

2. Resumption of flight schedules into and out of Nigeria by Etihad Airlines and Emirates Airlines, without any immediate payment required from the Nigerian government.

3. An agreed framework for new investments worth several billions of U.S. dollars into the Nigerian economy by the UAE government, covering multiple sectors including defense and agriculture.

4. A joint, new foreign exchange liquidity programme between Nigeria and the UAE, details of which will be announced in the coming weeks.

5. A commitment to normalize and enhance the relations between the two countries, fostered by the collaboration between myself and UAE President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.

Beyond the Tribunal, your mandate has been tested by Time, tried by the weather and forged in the crucibles of fire; the tribunal only affirms the strong foundation upon which your mandate stands for the interest of our nation.

You went into the election prepared than any other in the history of Nigeria. The people bought into your manifesto of a renewed hope; the average Nigerian has an unshaken belief that you will make a difference in their lives, and that is why the Court also "voted" for Nigerians with their verdict.

Congratulations once again, @NGRPresident @officialABAT PBAT and @KashimSM , Federal Republic of Nigeria.

I am delighted to announce that the long-awaited Blue Line Rail will begin commercial operations on Monday September 4, 2023 from Marina to Mile 2 as we put #LagosOnTrack.

Join me at 9am at Marina Station as we become the first passengers of this important project that will make daily commute easier for a lot of our residents.

From Tuesday, partial passenger operations will begin from 6:30-10am and afternoon peak from 4-9:30pm.

We're starting with 12 trips for 2 weeks, ramping up to 76 trips/day and you would be able to board the train using your Lagos Cowry Card.

This is the people's project and everyone will enjoy its world-class services. The Blue Line Rail is one of the rail projects designed to make Lagos a fully interconnected city and it will transform our city's transport system.

There are over 300 CCTV cameras across the entire rail with over 30 cameras monitoring the tracks alone, with command and control centers available in all stations along the track.

Lagos, this is your project. Take ownership and treat it with decency as you would treat anything that belongs to you. Any altercation or disturbance on the train will NOT be tolerated. It goes without saying that vandalism also will NOT be tolerated.

We remain committed to transforming every area of our great state.

The President has no power to suspend life pensions enjoyed by past Govs as @SERAPNigeria indicated or recommended. The President @officialABAT can only persuade the Govs to emulate @JustusOGD. The law was passed by a constitutionally elected state house of Assembly. President has no relationship with states house of Assemblies.

We are indeed proud of you, and confident that you will certainly give the same measure of commitment which you demonstrated in our dear state to your new assignment as Minister of FCT.

Congratulations once again.

[Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri @GovernorAUF]

Congratulations on your Senate screening and appointment as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory Abuja.

Your Excellency, Ezenwo Nyesom Wike you have set precedence and demonstrated exemplary leadership traits by delivering service and good governance according to the people’s need during your tenure as Governor of Rivers State which I believe earned you this position.

I trust that you will continue to work for improved growth and development of the FCT just like you did in Rivers State as Governor.

I am confident that your influence will continue to encourage our proud tradition of hard work and dedication to country as well as involvement in worthwhile political causes.

My brother and friend once more congratulations on your appointment. I know you have worked hard to reach this point, and I'm so happy that you have been recognized for your accomplishment with this new assignment. It is well-deserved.- AUF

The Minister of Steel Development, Shuaibu Audu, has stressed the need to resuscitate the Ajaokuta Steel Company.
During a press briefing in Abuja on Monday, Audu affirmed his commitment to restoring the moribund steel plant.
According to him, he will set a roadmap for the development of the steel sector, aggressively pursue the completion of Ajaokuta steel, and enact required bills to regulate the steel sector, among others.
He said, “Our past leaders recognised the importance of steel development but lacked the political will to achieve its objectives.

“The steel development is synonymous with the Ajaokuta Steel plant, whose commencement has been over 40 years ago. We aim to start the engine and ensure that we produce at least a small sheet of steel within this administration.

“It is a known fact that steel is the bedrock of any nation’s development; if gotten right, it may be the beginning of our industrial revolution.”
