@OPay_NG route in the city of Abuja. Thank God I don't use you guys anymore..nothing would have made me withdraw at the point, if I were still a customer.

[Emily Caino @EmilyCaino]

@OPay_NG Your poor customer service is alarming, digitally and even physically..on my way back from work, I saw some Opay agents, one walked up to me asking if I have an Opay account, I said no and she enquired, told her it's personal but she insisted. I started to narrate my ordeal to

[Emily Caino @EmilyCaino]

@OPay_NG distance..only God knows what she was saying!!! How can you call yourself a customer street agent and just walked out of a lost customer, you are hoping to get back especially after you insisted on hearing the grievances they have. Very poor and untrained to be put on a major

@OPay_NG her, and just in the middle of the conversation, her colleagues past us and she just left me while I was talking and started walking with these colleagues. I was amazed, what a customer service agent! Funnily, she turned while walking and was trying to give me an assurance from

The FG will have to find a way to either bring in a short-term subsidy, because how will people buy fuel at N1200 or more? Purchasing power is weak, and more Nigerians are already suffering from economic devastation.

Even at about 800 naira, people could not buy it. What did the common man benefit from the subsidy removal in the first place? Practically nothing. The only thing we keep hearing is that Governors have more money, which does not in any way trickle down. At this point, inflation will further deepen and more people will suffer more in an already terribly bad situation. The Government must at this time proactively find a creative means to cushion the effects of the rising fuel prices.

In plain words, the fuel subsidy removal has not benefited Nigerians in any way. This is not so hard, Government exist because of the people, where the people do not feel any benefit, it has failed woefully. That's what we are experiencing with this fuel subsidy remove. Even those parroting CNG as an alternative have all gone cold. No improvement in the quality of the lives of Nigerians, before and after the removal of fuel subsidy. How has the removal directly affected the lives of Nigerians? The government must take care of its people, in one way or the other. Even in advanced Countries, governments ameliorate the burdens on their citizens via one form of subsidy or another.

A Powerful Message for the North That Cannot Be Ignored.

They want this video gone, but I won’t silence the truth. Why are Northerners, not Southerners, saying this? This is life in the North especially for the poor.

As President Tinubu signs the Electoral Act Amendment Bill 2026 into Law, citizens should note the following 7 major changes:

1. Voter registration: Documents required for voter registration are narrowed to 3 : a birth certificate, a Nigerian passport and a National Identification Number (NIN).

2. Downloadable voter card: Voters can download their voter card from INEC’s website.

3. Electronic transmission of results: Electronic transmission to IReV is compulsory.
However, if it fails, the physical result sheet (EC8A) becomes the primary source of collation and results declaration.

4. Mode of party primary election: The new bill adopts direct primaries and consensus as the only methods for political parties to nominate candidates.

5. Disbursement of funds to INEC: Election funds must be released to INEC at least 6 months before the general election. Previously: 12 months.

6. Deadline for submission of candidates’ list: Political parties must submit candidates 120 days before election day. Previously: 180 days

7. INEC’s final list of candidates; INEC must publish candidates' list 60 days before the election. Previously: 150 days.

Except for the provisor in Section 60 (3) which holds that upon network failure inhibiting electronic transmission; form EC8A becomes the primary mode of collation and result transmission . I’ll say the other amendments are fine.

At this juncture, the National Assembly has done its part. The Presidency too.

Now its left for every citizens to channel their attention to INEC and ensure it:

• Strictly complies with the law and equally treats all political parties and candidates.

• Deploys technology effectively for voter accreditation, result transmission, and real-time transparency.

• Guarantees timely logistics and efficient distribution of election materials.

• Protects the integrity of the voters’ register and prevents manipulation.

• Works closely with security agencies to ensure peaceful, violence-free polls.

• Promptly uploads and publish results to strengthen public trust.

Ultimately, Nigerians are the true government and every institution actually is accountable to the people.

The people MUST follow the money and question every kobo of the ₦873 billion to be released for the 2027 elections.

Question the quality of BVAS machines.

Insist on smarter softwares for BVAS and IREV systems.

Demand a partnership with a network provider e.g. Starlink for a sure nationwide service for the election week. Coverage over the 177,000 polling unit should cost more than ₦65billion.

Lastly, laws are dynamic not absolute. They are made by men to serve mankind and can ve challenged in the courts of law. Therefore Citizens who are dissatisfied with any or all of the amendments can challenge the Electoral Act 2026 via a judicial action.

The federal government is considering a salary increase for individuals in political positions.

The Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission has indicated intentions to reassess the salaries of political office holders in Nigeria, citing that the present earnings are insufficient, impractical, and outdated given the increasing responsibilities and economic challenges.

During a press conference held in Abuja on Monday, Mohammed Shehu, the Chairman of the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission, revealed that President Bola Tinubu currently has a monthly salary of N1.5 million. Meanwhile, ministers earn less than N1 million each month. These salary figures have not been adjusted since 2008.

He said, “You are paying the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria N1.5m a month, with a population of over 200 million people. Everybody believes that it is a joke.

“You cannot pay a minister less than N1m per month since 2008 and expect him to put in his best without necessarily being involved in some other things. You pay either a CBN governor or the DG ten times more than you pay the President. That is just not right. Or you pay him [the head of an agency] twenty times higher than the Attorney-General of the Federation. That is absolutely not right.

“We are strictly restricted to political office holders, governors, senators, legislators, ministers, DGs, and other people.

“It’s about time that people like you and others should support the commission to come up with reasonable living salaries for ministers, DGs, and the President.

“In line with this constitutional responsibility and in response to the evolving socio-economic, political and fiscal realities of our nation, the Commission has resolved to initiate the process of reviewing the revenue allocation formula to reflect emerging socio-economic realities.

“The situation has made it essential to re-evaluate the structure of fiscal federalism in order to foster economic growth in individual states, enabling them to become independent from the central government and ensuring equity, responsiveness, and sustainability.”

@ndlea_nigeria The religious institution is another key tool to battle the issue, rather than preaching morality all the time, focus should be moved to equipping the congregation with basic life skills to live succesfully on earth. Professionals should be invited and some days dedicated to them
