Dear Emeka AKA IAmYoung,

Thank you for your feedback. What I said is that "20% of Their Workforce", which is 7 million people, are involved in selling roadside street food. This is different from saying 20% of their population.

Türkiye is a country I am familiar with. I was a Speaker at the last TRT World Forum, where I not only spoke but also met President Recep Erdoğan. Afterwards, I was interviewed on their official state television.

Türkiye has a population of 88 million people and a workforce of 34 million. 7 million roadside street food vendors are thus, slightly over 20% of their workforce. I encourage you to fact-check me on this.

When you calculate a workforce, you exclude those too young to work, which is everyone 15 and below. Then you also exclude retired persons, which include almost everyone 65 years and older. Finally, you do not count those who, by reason of physical or mental issues, are unable to work.

I hope this has helped you acquire clarity about my initial post.

Thanks again, and may God bless you.

The State Police will not be perfect; the Federal Police are insufficient and imperfect, but a federal republic needs State and Local police and policing.

That said, the passage of the State Police Act is a significant achievement, and full credit for establishing the State Police and the continued push for devolution of powers goes to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

On this, you have my 100% support. Go further and see if you can advocate for and implement regional devolution.

Well done, Sir.

UK Commends Tinubu’s Economic Reforms, Calls Nigeria an African Superpower

The United Kingdom has commended the economic reforms introduced by President Bola Tinubu’s administration, saying the measures are beginning to deliver visible results despite the challenges associated with their implementation.

Speaking at the 4th UK–Nigeria Security and Defence Partnership (SDP4) dialogue in Abuja, UK National Security Adviser Jonathan Powell described Nigeria’s economic progress as a success story that demonstrates the value of difficult but necessary policy decisions.

Powell said the reforms are contributing to economic recovery and growth, adding that Nigeria’s influence on the African continent continues to expand. He described the country as an African superpower and reaffirmed the UK’s commitment to strengthening its partnership with Nigeria.

According to him, Nigeria remains the United Kingdom’s most important partner in Africa and plays a crucial role in promoting regional stability and addressing security challenges across the continent.

Also speaking at the event, National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu stressed the Federal Government’s commitment to democratic governance, human rights and the rule of law in tackling insecurity.

Ribadu warned that emerging thre@ts such as cybercr+me, artificial intelligence misuse and illicit financial networks are reshaping the global security environment. He called for deeper international cooperation, improved intelligence-sharing and greater investment in technology to address these challenges.

He also welcomed the UK’s support in cybersecurity and information resilience, noting that collaboration between both countries has expanded significantly since the launch of the UK–Nigeria Security and Defence Partnership in 2022.

According to Ribadu, the partnership has strengthened cooperation in areas including counterterr%rism, cybersecurity, maritime security, crisis response and intelligence sharing, while improving Nigeria’s institutional and operational capabilities.

Congratulations to Professor Obiora Okonkwo and United Nigeria Airlines, @flyunitedng, on securing approval for international routes to New York, Dubai and Canada.

This is exactly how nations grow. We cannot keep complaining about unemployment and capital flight while handing our skies to foreign airlines.

Allen Onyema of Air Peace broke barriers. Obiora Okonkwo is doing the same. These men are proving that Nigerian businesses can compete globally when given a fair chance.

President Tinubu should now take the next logical step: make it mandatory for every government official travelling on taxpayers’ money to fly a Nigerian airline if a Nigerian airline operates the route. Governors, ministers, lawmakers, advisers—everyone. Frankly, it is indefensible for a public official to spend Nigerian taxpayers’ money enriching foreign airlines while bypassing Nigerian carriers that employ Nigerian workers, pay Nigerian taxes and invest in the Nigerian economy. If a Nigerian airline flies the route, there should be no excuse and no exception.

Why should Nigerian taxpayers fund foreign airlines while our own carriers struggle for patronage? That makes absolutely no sense.

God willing, if my schedule permits, I will gladly join United Nigeria Airlines on its maiden flight to Canada. When Nigerians dare to dream big and win, they deserve our support.

Nigeria must stop exporting opportunities and start backing its own champions.

Julius Berger.

34% growth in revenue, driven by increased ACTIVITY across key business segments.

38.5 % growth in Profit Before Tax. This is how an economy rebounds. JB has enough profit to pay dividends and reinvest in its business and subsequently the economy.

The Velocity of Capital: The N6.8 billion approved dividend redistributes wealth and injects liquidity immediately back into the financial system.

The Subcontractor Supply Chain: 34% jump in revenue means millions poured into local subcontractors, steel vendors, logistics firms, and equipment providers.

Employment and Wage Stabilization: One of the company's strongest performances in recent years guarantees job stability for thousands of specialized workers, engineers, and laborers. It will hire more, increase wages, and train more workers

This is how economies grow and expand. Trust in PBAT.

Clarification: Nigeria’s $60 billion High-Speed Rail Plan:

2: August 2025, De-Sadel Nigeria Limited officially presented their proposal and a $60 billion proof of funds document for the high-speed rail and gas projects to the @SGFAkume

3: Partner: China’s Liancai Petroleum Investment Holdings backed by China’s govt.

4: FG constituted a technical committee to evaluate their proposal.

5: Status:

-(a): The project is Public-Private Partnership. It means the contractor will bear the cost and risks.

-(b): the proponent De-Sadel was issued an OBC certificate from @icrcng which has since expired.

-(c): Federal Govt has issued them conditionalities before @icrcng will extend the approval for OBC.

6: We are waiting for the consortium to do the needful to proceed to the next phase of the project.

7: Again, FG not Tinubu is not contributing one naira.

Nigeria has signed a €200 million financing agreement with the European Investment Bank to boost small businesses, green energy, and digital innovation through the Development Bank of Nigeria.

The five-year facility is aimed at expanding access to finance for SMEs and MSMEs driving green growth and digital transformation, while also supporting women-led businesses, with at least 30% of the funding reserved for female entrepreneurs.

[Dr. Toks 🦇 @fimiletoks]

For you to understand Nigeria's economic reality, the whole increase in revenue and taxes net will probably take us to $ 45 billion.

Look at SA's revenue, driven by PIT and VAT.
Take Note of South African Revenue Service and its performance. Consolidated expenditure is $163bn.

Nigeria with 200m people, with "Oil" can't pull 30% of SA's revenue. There is heavy lifting to be done to grow the economy. Years of subsidies have only impoverished us and made us unproductive.

PBAT will fix it.

[Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT]

Over the past year, disruptions in global supply chains and rising costs of key fertiliser inputs, exacerbated by conflict in the Middle East, created serious pressure for many countries. For Nigeria, the risks were glaring if we failed to move fast. This includes potential input shortages, higher fertiliser prices, pressure on local blending plants, reduced farm productivity, and higher food prices.

I am pleased to inform you that we moved early.

Through the Presidential Fertiliser Initiative (PFI), now restructured under MOFI, we strengthened procurement, secured critical raw materials, signed forward agreements, improved coordination across the value chain, and protected Nigeria’s local fertiliser blending industry from the worst effects of global market disruption.

[Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT]

When we came into office, we made a promise to Nigerians that food security would be a major pillar of our Renewed Hope agenda.

We promised to support our farmers, strengthen local production, reduce dependence on imports, and build an agricultural system strong enough to withstand shocks from beyond our borders.

That promise is being kept.
