Omuma is interesting: the increase is spread across most of the polling units, so it doesn’t jump out when you look for individual polling unit outliers. You only see the scale at ward level.
Unlike Udomi in Edo, where one polling unit’s dramatic rise immediately catches your eye.
Whoever engineered Omuma. Well done 😊
Omuma ward in Oru East, Imo, added 23,155 registered voters between 2023 and 2026, up 89.7%. That’s the biggest increase of any ward in Nigeria.

Last week, the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Act (Amendment) Bill, 2026 (HB. 2850), Prohibition of Lynching, Mob Action and Extrajudicial Executions Bill, 2026 (HB. 2851), Weights and Measures (Amendment) Bill, 2026 (HB. 2852) and Weights and Measures (Amendment) Bill, 2026 (HB. 2852) had passed. Please follow any of our pages to verify. Yesterday, two further bills passed in the House. They are stated below.
I. Federal Road Safety Commission (Establishment) Act (Amendment) Bill, 2026 (HB. 2854): Every journey should end with a safe return home. Speeding remains a leading cause of road crashes in Kaduna and across Nigeria. Whether commercial drivers, commuters, traders or students, we all depend on our roads. This Bill seeks to ensure that clearly visible speed limit signs are installed and maintained on public roads, helping motorists comply with prescribed limits and reducing avoidable accidents. Protecting lives on our roads must not be left to chance.
II. Terrorism (Prevention and Prohibition) Act (Amendment) Bill, 2026 (HB. 2855)
From kidnappings in communities around Kaduna North to the wider national security crisis, terrorism continues to threaten lives, livelihoods and businesses. Beyond confronting those who carry out attacks, we must dismantle the financial networks that sustain them. This Bill seeks to broaden the definition of terrorism financiers and increase the minimum penalty for terrorism financing. Those who fund, facilitate and sustain terrorism must face serious consequences.
These bills are about safer journeys, more secure communities and protecting the lives and livelihoods of ordinary Nigerians. Regardless of the political season, the safety and security of our people must remain a priority. Our work continues.

Good things work, bad things work, truth works, lies work, useless things work, stupid things work, ugly things work! Just don’t be that conduit for the wrong thing to work at the right time.
Update XII: (Unguwar Dosa Ward) . In the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Compassionate. Our Primary Healthcare Support Initiative has now reached 11 Primary Healthcare Centres across Kaduna North, with Unguwar Dosa Ward being the latest beneficiary. This leaves us with Kabala Ward. We are currently working with our development partner to acquire more syringes and then we will complete those wards. I take full responsibility for the delay.
Our team has delivered 2,000 syringes and other essential medical supplies to the Primary Health Care Centre in Mai Burji Ward as we have done in other wards over the past months. As with our previous interventions, these supplies will be provided free of charge to residents of the designated ward, regardless of ethnicity, religion or political affiliation. Attached is a letter from members of the ward, which I received today expressing their gratitude. While I appreciate it, I am using this medium to remind them that it is our duty.
Reaching 11 PHCs is an important milestone, but the real value lies in the communities served, the healthcare workers supported and the families who can access basic medical consumables without bearing the additional cost.
I sincerely appreciate Medical Plastics Limited and my friend, Amir Baba Kusa, for their continued generosity and partnership. Their support has helped us extend this intervention to more communities.
We will continue to identify practical ways to strengthen primary healthcare and improve the wellbeing of our constituents. For us, the work must go beyond promises; it must translate into tangible benefits for our people.

At NAPE 2026, Alhaji @AlikoDangote Dangote challenged Nigeria’s oil and gas industry to stop thinking incrementally.
His proposed target: at least 4 million barrels of oil per day.
He argued that Nigerians must take responsibility for transforming the industry, support policies that improve the operating environment and demonstrate what focused investment and operational execution can achieve.
On the OPEC quota question, his position was straightforward: first build the capacity to produce 4 million barrels per day. Then determine how best to manage that capacity.
His message was unmistakable:
“Dream big, think big, and make sure that we deliver something very, very big.”
Ambition matters. But achieving 4 million barrels per day will require investment, exploration, infrastructure, asset optimisation, operational efficiency and policy stability.
Nigeria must move from announcing production targets to building the capacity to deliver them.
