Child drug abusers open up to @fijnigeria’s Daniel Ojukwu in this reporter's diary.

One tells @fijnigeria that when he has his child on the way, he will clean up his act and pause the vice for some 20 or 30 years. He didn't say how he plans to achieve this.👇🏾

A Federal High Court in Lagos has declared the National Assembly's N110 billion vehicle and allowance schemes for lawmakers unlawful.

“The allocation of N110 billion for the benefit of lawmakers undermines the fiduciary duty owed to the Nigerian people,” the court held.👇🏾

In 2022, the Ogun State Waste Management Authority said that the open dumpsite at Oja Agbe, Ifo, was “illegal”.

Four years on, the state and local governments in charge have done nothing to tackle the problem as residents live, trade and eat next to an environmental time bomb.👇🏾

Remember Malam Mustapha Yahaya Maru, a teacher at FGC Anka ?

Weeks ago, I shared that he was kidnapped on his way to the school.

This evening, the bandits contacted his family to inform them that they have killed him, after the family paid a ransom of 4 million Naira.

Since his abduction and now his death, there has been no statement from the Ministry of Education, security agencies, or any arm of government.

We can’t continue like this fgs 💔
