Yesterday in Maiduguri, Vice President @KashimSM paid condolence visits to Prof. Shehu Liberty over the passing of his wife, the late Dr. Fatima Shehu Liberty; the family of the late former Deputy Inspector-General of Police, Abdullahi Shettima; and Hajiya Amma Gangaran over the passing of her mother.

During the visits, he prayed Almighty Allah (SWT) to forgive the departed, grant them Aljannatul Firdaus, and comfort their families and loved ones with the strength and patience to bear these irreparable losses.

The Federal Government has flagged off the rehabilitation of the Bama-Banki Road and Dikwa-Gamboru-Ngala Road in Borno State, describing the projects as strategic corridors for trade, agriculture, security access, and post-insurgency recovery in the North-East.

The government particularly said road infrastructure remains inseparable from the region's quest for lasting peace and economic recovery.

The Vice President, Senator @KashimSM, who performed the flag-off on behalf of President @officialABAT on Saturday, said the road projects reflect the administration’s commitment to restoring mobility, rebuilding economic confidence, and reconnecting communities that have endured years of insecurity and infrastructural neglect.

Speaking at the event, VP @KashimSM said the two corridors would strengthen cross-border economic activity and widen the reach of security agencies across the North-East.

According to him, roads determine whether farmers can move produce to markets, traders can reach customers, children can access schools, patients can reach healthcare facilities, and security agencies can respond to communities in time.

“Roads are the live wire of our commercial engagements. They determine whether the farmer reaches the market, the trader reaches the customer, the child reaches school, the patient reaches care, and security agencies reach communities in time,” the Vice President said.

Meanwhile, as part of his engagements in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, on Saturday, Vice President @KashimSM also attended the wedding Fatiha of five sons of his close associate, Alhaji Ali Gujja, popularly called Empire.

He also graced the wedding Fatiha of the daughter of another of his friends, Alhaji Bala Mohammed Bukar, all within the Maiduguri metropolis.

At the wedding of one of the five sons of Alhaji Gujja, which represented the others, the Vice President stood in for the father of the bride, Hauwa, while Borno State Governor @ProfZulum, stood in for the father of the groom, Aliyu.

President @officialABAT has said the opening of the new headquarters of the Economic Community of West African States (@ecowas_cedeao) in Abuja will renew the commitment to regional integration, peace, industrialisation and shared prosperity across West Africa.

He called the new building a symbol of renewal, of resilience, and of confidence in the future of ECOWAS and urged a shift from a regional market to a regional production base.

Speaking at the commissioning of the new edifice on Thursday in Abuja, President @officialABAT, who was represented by Vice President @KashimSM, said the new ECOWAS complex, described as the “Eye of Africa,” is a symbol of the region’s collective resolve to preserve the ideals that inspired the founding of the community more than five decades ago.

“Today marks not only the inauguration of an impressive landmark, but the renewal of a covenant, our covenant with the ideals of regional integration, solidarity, and shared prosperity,” the President said.

President @officialABAT said ECOWAS has remained one of the most respected regional economic communities in the world, with major progress in peace-building, democratic governance, economic cooperation, and the free movement of people, goods and services.

The Vice President, Senator @KashimSM, has affirmed Nigeria’s readiness to create jobs, build skills, and expand its productive base through active participation in the global minerals economy.

He underscored the importance of solid minerals in a tech-driven era, saying they are the enduring backbone of every economy since no technology rises without them.

Senator @KashimSM stated this on Thursday while commissioning Diamond New Energy Projects, one of Africa’s lithium processing plants and mining companies in Nasarawa State, on behalf of President @officialABAT.

He identified what he described as the stark choices confronting Nigeria, noting that the nation must either maximise its industrial advantage and turn its endowments into engines of prosperity, or spend years manufacturing excuses for the nation’s lack of innovation.

[Senator Kashim Shettima @officialSKSM]

The Vice President, Senator @KashimSM, has explained some of the strategies being deployed by the administration of President @officialABAT to improve the ease of doing business in Nigeria.

According to him, through the Presidential Enabling Business Environment Council (@PEBECgovng), as well as the bold structural and fiscal reforms, the Federal Government has replaced gatekeeping with partnership that has enabled the subnationals to unlock their economic potential.

Senator @KashimSM, who stated this on Wednesday when he declared open the Jigawa State Investment Summit 2026 in Dutse, the state capital, noted that across the federation, the President @officialABAT-led Federal Government has taken difficult but necessary decisions to put the economy back on a path of sustainable growth.

“On our part, we have made it easier to do business in Nigeria. Through the PEBEC, we have simplified registrations and permits, and brought the cost and time of starting and running a business steadily down. The Business Facilitation Act has given these reforms the force of law, binding our agencies to transparency, predictability, and speed.”

One week after inaugurating the Karu Satellite Town Water Supply Network in Karu, President @officialABAT, on Monday, returned to the Abuja satellite town, where he commissioned the newly rehabilitated and expanded roads from the Karu Interchange to the Customs Clinic Junction, including other vital adjoining roads.

He said the road projects and other infrastructural developments are a clear testament to his promise to resolve urban congestion and uplift the living standards of Nigerians.

The Nigerian leader, who was represented at the commissioning by his deputy, Vice President @KashimSM, explained that by expanding and rehabilitating the roads, his administration is not just laying asphalt but injecting life back into the nation’s local economy.

He noted that when he assumed office in 2023, his administration “recognized that true development must reach where the people actually live, work, and commute.

“Indeed, this project stands as a clear testament to our promise to resolve urban congestion and uplift the living standards of our people. It is a direct product of our Renewed Hope Agenda in action,” he stated.

Also in Jos, Plateau State, I graced the wedding reception of Nanbam Mutfwang, daughter of the Governor of Plateau State, Barr. Caleb Mutfwang, and Jeremiah Ayodele.

Marriage remains one of the strongest symbols of unity, reminding us that what binds us together as Nigerians is far greater than whatever seeks to divide us. As I joined family, friends, and well-wishers in celebrating the couple, I also encouraged the people of Plateau State to continue building bridges of peace and unity in the collective pursuit of progress.

I pray that the Almighty grants the newlyweds a blessed, enduring, and prosperous union. Congratulations to the families of the bride and groom.

[Senator Kashim Shettima @officialSKSM]

President @officialABAT has defended his administration’s decision to prioritise infrastructural development under the Renewed Hope Agenda, saying it is the backbone of a modern economy.

He said Renewed Hope is not just a slogan but roads and ease for the common man, just as he urged Nigerians to continue to support his administration’s infrastructural drive.

Speaking on Friday when he commissioned the Collector Roads 01 and 02 in Mabushi District of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), the President, who was represented by his deputy, Vice President @KashimSM, pledged that with the support of the citizens, his government will continue to build more roads, create more jobs, and restore full confidence in governance.

Defending his administration’s focus on infrastructural development, the Nigerian leader noted that the collector roads have created new, seamless links that ease flow across Mabushi, from the bus terminal into the wider FCT.

“When roads connect, businesses grow. When movement is easy, productivity rises. When travel is safe, citizens are free. That is the Renewed Hope Agenda at work. It is a fact that Infrastructure is the backbone of a modern economy. Roads are not just asphalt.

Daddy ma da daddynsa
I appreciate you for being there. You are right there all the time and you deliver everytime. You have made life easier when it comes with its trials and challenges. You are untiring and unwavering in your daddyship.

Thank you for making me miss late Dr. Ibrahim Tahir a little less, in a world where parents only consider the offspring they beget as their own. You have been a great dad to me and to many others. That is why when we say DADDY to you, we mean it.

Happy Father's day.

The Vice President, Senator @KashimSM, has showered praises on the late Alhaja Abibatu Mogaji, mother of President @officialABAT, describing her as a woman whose love went far beyond her family and shaped Nigeria’s moral imagination.

According to him, the leadership given by the late revered Iyaloja-General of Nigeria, who moved on to the next stage of existence on June 15, 2013, at the age of 96, was demonstrated in the lives she lifted and the institutions she strengthened, rather than being announced by noise.

Speaking on Sunday in Abuja during the Annual Grand Prayer Session in honour of the late Alhaja Mogaji at the National Mosque, Abuja, Senator @KashimSM, who represented the President, noted that the late matriarch of the Tinubu family ran her race, finished her course, and left behind a legacy that will instruct generations yet unborn.

Specifically, the Vice President identified the “like mother, like son” case scenario between the President and his late mother, stating that the late Alhaja Mogaji shaped President @officialABAT into a leader and that she still serves Nigeria through the values she instilled in her son, the incumbent Nigerian leader.

He said, “It should surprise no one, then, that the son she raised carries the same fire into the highest office in our land. His Excellency, President @officialABAT, learned at her side that public life is a trust and that leadership is owed first to the ordinary and the unheard.”

The Nutrition 774 Initiative Strategy Board has adopted a domestic financing model as the sustainable foundation for nutrition investment in Nigeria.

This is just as Chairman of the Board, Vice President @KashimSM, has charged the remaining twenty-seven states that have not inaugurated their State Councils on Nutrition to close the gap by doing so.

The board also mandated the Federal Ministry of Finance (@FinMinNigeria), and other critical partners to embark on a robust stakeholder engagement programme in order to activate existing financing instruments, including the Presidential Nutrition Intervention Fund (PNIF) and the Sugar-Sweetened Beverage (SSB) levy ring-fence, as funding streams for nutrition and related interventions in Nigeria.

These were among the decisions taken on Wednesday during the 2nd High-Level Strategic Board Meeting of the Nutrition 774 Initiative, chaired by the Vice President at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

On the milestones achieved in the operationalisation of the initiative, the board noted the importance of the Nutrition 774 Initiative as the primary governance vehicle for delivering nutrition outcomes at scale across all 774 Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Nigeria.

Before proceeding to the venue of the mega rally, the Vice President, Senator @KashimSM paid homage to the Ewi of Ado Ekiti, HRH Oba Adeyemo Adejugbe, where he thanked the royal father, saying he is not merely a representation of antiquity but a symbol of the Ekiti people’s heritage.

The Vice President also met with members of the Ekiti State Traditional Rulers Council at Government House, where he assured them of President @officialABAT’s support for the traditional institution.

The Vice President also urged the traditional rulers to join hands with Governor @biodunaoyebanji for the development of Ekiti State, citing the federal appointments from which the state has benefited under the Tinubu administration.

[Senator Kashim Shettima @officialSKSM]

The Vice President, Senator @KashimSM, Monday, embarked on a last-minute campaign for the re-election of the All Progressives Congress (@OfficialAPCNg) governorship candidate, Governor @biodunaoyebanji, for a second term in office ahead of Saturday’s gubernatorial election in Ekiti State.

He told the people of the state that the joint ticket of Governor Oyebanji and his deputy, Chief Mrs. Monisade Afuye, is a ticket of balance, experience, and continuity that deserves renewal, noting that instead of a routine contest in Saturday’s governorship poll, Ekiti is standing at the gate of a larger Nigerian journey.

Speaking in Ado-Ekiti, the Ekiti State capital, during the APC Grand Finale Mega Rally, Senator @KashimSM, who represented President @officialABAT, maintained that continuity for Governor Oyebanji is an investment in the peace, progress, and future of the state.

Joined at the mega rally by APC governors, party leaders, National Assembly members, and ministers, among others, the Vice President said, “The task before you is simple, sacred, and historic. Go out and vote. Speak to your neighbours. Speak to your families. Speak to your wards, your unions, your communities, and your friends. Tell them that continuity in Ekiti is not a favour to one man. It is an investment in the peace, progress, and future of this state.
