This is why i said we really have a numbers problem in this country.

There are only about 7200 dollar Millionaires (billionaires in Naira) in Nigeria. This is nowhere near 1 million in Lagos alone.

In 2025, Customer deposits in tier 1 banks (First Bank, UBA, GTCO, Zenith and Access Bank) was N114 trillion.

But according to this egbon's calculator, 1 million people x 1 billion naira each = N1 quadrillion.

This is thousands of times larger than Nigeria’s entire banking system deposits. Impossible.

Pls stop cooking these ridiculous numbers nau.

TROOPS OF 65 BATTALION INTERCEPT TRUCK CONVEYING LARGE CONSIGNMENT OF ILLICIT DRUGS ALONG LAGOS–CALABAR COASTAL ROAD

Troops of 65 Battalion have recorded an operational success with the interception of a truck conveying a large consignment of illicit drugs along the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Road following actionable intelligence received from a credible source.

The intelligence-led operation, conducted on 9 July 2026, resulted in the successful interception of the vehicle and the arrest of its driver. Preliminary investigations revealed that the illicit consignment was being transported to the Berger general area of Lagos State. However, the suspect could not provide satisfactory information regarding the ownership or intended recipient of the drugs.

In line with established procedures, the suspect and the recovered illicit drugs were subsequently handed over to the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Lagos State Command, for further investigation and prosecution. The handover was conducted by the Commanding Officer, 65 Battalion, Lieutenant Colonel S Adeojo.

Reacting to the development, the General Officer Commanding (GOC) 81 Division Nigerian Army, Major General Adebayo Babalola, commended the troops for their vigilance, professionalism and operational effectiveness. He urged them to sustain the tempo of ongoing operations and intensify efforts aimed at denying drug traffickers and other criminal elements any freedom of action within the 81 Division Area of Responsibility.

[Tom Bogert @tombogert]

So, VAR steps in to give Embolo a second yellow because the referee made the wrong decision in the first place to book Paredes? If it was just a foul, not a yellow, it’s not reviewable.

Pure insanity. Game’s gone. Less VAR man. For the love of god

Court affirms FCCPC's power to investigate airline ticket pricing complaints

The federal high court in Abuja has affirmed the statutory powers of the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) to investigate consumer complaints relating to airline ticket pricing, dismissing a suit filed by Air Peace challenging the commission’s authority.

In a judgment delivered on June 29, Binta Nyako, the presiding judge, held that the FCCPC acted within its powers under the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Act (FCCPA) 2018, when it sought information from Air Peace following complaints over sharp increases in domestic airfares in December 2024.

In Zamfara, troops responded to an attack on farmers, neutralised notorious terrorist commander Alhaji Tukur, identified as the younger brother of terrorist kingpin Alhaji Shehu Bagiwaye.
Several other terrorists reportedly escaped with gunshot wounds.

They also responded to reports of terrorist activity at Sabon Gari in Kaura Namoda Local Government Area, Zamfara, where the approaching force compelled the criminals to abandon their mission and flee. A follow-up exploitation led to the neutralisation of one terrorist and the recovery of a motorcycle.

In neighbouring Katsina State, troops on fighting patrol along the Danmusa-Yantumaki axis overwhelmed another terrorist group, forcing its members to abandon their position. Exploitation of the area resulted in the recovery of two AK-47 rifles, two magazines containing 25 rounds of ammunition and a motorcycle.

The operation highlighted continued air-land integration within the theatre.

Updated: in the course of the rescue operation, eight of the kidnappers were arrested and are now in DSS custody, while some of them were neutralised. There was no quid pro quo in the rescue as one of the terrorists, a kingpin, that the kidnappers demanded his release, is being prosecuted for his atrocities. The security agencies will give full account soon.

ExxonMobil is returning to drilling in Nigeria🇳🇬 for the first time since 2016 with a $1 billion deepwater investment.

The Usan Infill Project is expected to add 40,000 barrels of oil per day within 18 months.

The investment signals renewed confidence in Nigeria’s offshore sector following recent regulatory reforms.

It forms part of Abuja’s broader strategy to revive crude production and attract new upstream capital.
