I used to think Nigerians in the diaspora were more enlightened than those at home.

I was wrong.🤦🤦

Brr. Kalu Kalu is so hollow in both reasoning and logic. You petitioned Tinubu for allegedly failing to state his primary and secondary school qualifications,
yet in the same breath claimed that a non-existent certificate was forged.

Make it make sense.

STATEHOUSE PRESS RELEASE

PRESIDENT TINUBU CALLS FOR PEACEFUL ELECTION IN OSUN STATE, CHARGES SECURITY AGENCIES TO PROTECT VOTERS AND INEC OFFICIALS

President Bola Tinubu has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission and the security agencies to ensure a peaceful and transparent election in Osun State.

The people of Osun State will go to the polls on Saturday, August 15, 2026, to elect their governor in an election where 15 candidates are contesting. Among them are the incumbent Governor Ademola Adeleke, the All Progressives Congress candidate, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji, and the African Democratic Congress candidate, Hon. Najeem Salaam.

President Tinubu also charged the electorate in Osun State to come out to discharge their civic responsibility and eschew any act that could disrupt the peaceful conduct of the election, while assuring the people of their safety before and after the polls.

"As the people of Osun State head to the polling units to elect who will govern them in the next four years, I call on the Independent National Electoral Commission to ensure orderly conduct of the election. The election must be transparent, free and fair. I urge INEC to ensure the integrity of the process," the President said.

"INEC must use this last off-cycle election as a test case to demonstrate to Nigerians their full preparedness for the 2027 polls," he added.

“I have charged the Inspector-General of Police and other heads of security outfits taking part in the election to provide maximum security at polling units. No room should be allowed for troublemakers to disrupt the process.

"Electoral officials and voters must be protected so they can perform their civic duties without fear or intimidation.

“Voters should feel confident to go out in their numbers to vote for the candidate of their choice as all measures necessary to ensure a peaceful, free and fair election have been put in place.

"Our elections must be credible, and the outcome of the Osun Governorship election must reflect the will of the people," President Tinubu declared.

STATEHOUSE PRESS RELEASE

PRESIDENT TINUBU VOWS TO REVIVE THE REFINERIES AFTER A RESET, WELCOMES VALIDATION OF REFORMS BY NUPENG

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on Thursday in Abuja, said refineries will not be allowed to waste away, given the huge investments made over many years, assuring that in-depth research, restructuring, and leadership will reposition them to deliver value and profit.

President Tinubu stated this when he received the National Executive of the Nigerian Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG), led by its National President, Comrade Salimon Akanni Oladiti, at the State House.

The President, while responding to a request by NUPENG to revive the nation's oil refineries, explained that the challenges confronting the refineries would be addressed through a systematic, evidence-based approach rather than short-term interventions.

According to him, the Federal Government will encourage detailed research and technical assessments to identify the structural, operational, financial and managerial challenges affecting the facilities and develop sustainable solutions.

“The refineries that you mentioned are going to come back to work; we're just building a very firm, resetting, and structural reworking of the economy of it. Ordinary flame and smoke of a refinery doesn't mean that it's working until it's profitable and yields the value for which it is built.

“I'm not a man who goes looking back on everything because I've accepted the assets and liabilities of my predecessor. No matter what has happened in the years past, it's now my responsibility as president to fix it and make it work for the greatest common good of our population. I take responsibility for that, and we will do it.

“I will just appeal to all of you to let us work diligently and passionately on this democracy. Democracy is about celebration of freedom and opportunity that must be cherished by all of us, just like a painful childbirth, but the joy is everlasting and long. And I promise you, you will enjoy a better Nigeria,” the President said.

Responding to the remark on the implementation of local government autonomy, President Tinubu promised that the constitutional issues involved in its implementation are being reviewed for possible fine-tuning. He appealed for understanding among stakeholders.

The President also took the opportunity to acknowledge a former President of the Union, the late Frank Kokori, for his role in deepening democracy in Nigeria.

"You brought good memories of my relationship with Frank Kokori; may his soul rest in peace.  We struggled for this democratic dispensation together, and it was very tough for us to have this democracy, and you have been a very good partner of the government in progress," he said.

President Tinubu also promised the NUPENG executives more inclusion in the implementation of the Presidential Initiative on Compressed Natural Gas. He, however, challenged them to make the effects of the CNG drive get down to the commuters.

In his remarks, the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Alhaji Mohammed Idris, commended NUPENG for acknowledging the positive outcomes of President Tinubu's reform agenda, stating that this mutual understanding has reduced friction between trade unions and the government.

"Your Excellency, it is not common that you find trade unions come back to the President and say, ' Thank you for what you have done. ' I think this is an uncommon situation. We saw that when the NLC leadership came to you two years ago, you approved the wage increase for Nigerian workers.

"In that meeting, you mentioned to the Labour Unions that there was no need for them to wait for five years before they could come for the review of the minimum wage.

"They actually had that request written somewhere, but they didn't know that this was something that you already had in mind, so, for the first time, we saw the Labour Unions standing and giving you a standing ovation here in this room; it is very uncommon", the Minister said.

The Minister added that it was instructive that the leadership of an influential and central trade union, such as NUPENG, has come to acknowledge and appreciate the positive developments arising from this administration's reform agenda and its impact across various sectors of the economy.

"For their leader to come and recognise the reforms that you are doing, especially the major reforms you undertook in this country - the removal of fuel subsidy and also acknowledging that everywhere you go is a construction site in this country, is a good development,”  he said.

The NUPENG President, Comrade Oladiti, commended the President for taking the bold decision to end the fuel subsidy regime, describing the policy as a courageous step that has saved the country from decades of financial drain and depletion of national reserves.

According to him, the decision to remove the fuel subsidy has begun to yield enormous benefits for the country by freeing resources for critical infrastructure development and other sectors of the economy.

He particularly commended President Tinubu's renewed commitment to rehabilitating and constructing major highways across the country, especially the ongoing construction of the 750-kilometre Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway and the 1,068-kilometre Sokoto-Badagry Superhighway as major examples of infrastructure projects.

“For our members, a good road is the difference between arriving home safely and never arriving at all. Every stretch of highway rehabilitated or constructed means fewer accidents, fewer spillages, fewer lives lost, and less stress for the men behind the wheels. Mr President, that is a reform our members feel in their bones, and for it we say thank you because our tanker drivers and other road users are already seeing the benefits of the rehabilitation and construction of federal highways,” he said.

He, however, appealed to the President to sustain efforts to revive the refineries, stressing that functional refineries would strengthen Nigeria's energy security, reduce dependence on imported petroleum products, and create more opportunities for Nigerian workers.

The NUPENG leaders later decorated the President as the Grand Patron of the Union.

[Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT]

Dear Nigerians,

For many years, Nigeria has possessed some of the most promising deep offshore oil and gas resources in the world, yet several major developments have remained stalled. Oil lies beneath our waters. We have the engineers, businesses and young people capable of doing increasingly sophisticated work in the sector. What has often been missing is the certainty required for investors to commit billions of dollars, over many years, at the scale needed to turn that potential into production, jobs and opportunity for Nigerians.

We cannot afford to leave that opportunity beneath our waters for another decade.

I have therefore signed the Deep Offshore Oil and Gas Projects Incentives (Tax Remission) Order, 2026, to provide clear and predictable terms for a new generation of deep offshore investment in Nigeria.

The framework has the potential to unlock up to $50 billion in investment, beginning with the approximately $10 billion Bonga South West project. For existing deep offshore leases, there is a clear window to reach Final Investment Decision by 31 December 2029 and receive the full standard incentive available under the Order.

There is urgency to this work. Capital moves, and countries compete for it every day. The countries that attract long-term investment are not necessarily those with the greatest natural resources. They are the ones that provide the greatest certainty.

Nigeria must be one of those countries.

This Order marks the tenth major policy directive of my administration targeted specifically at the oil and gas sector. Each has dealt with a constraint holding back investment, production or value creation. Taken together, they represent a deliberate effort to make our oil and gas industry more competitive, attract capital back to Nigeria and ensure that more of the value created from our resources remains here at home.

But attracting investment is only half of my purpose.

I want the work that comes with these projects to come home to Nigeria. I want our engineers involved, our fabrication yards working, our marine and technical service companies securing contracts, and our young people acquiring skills that will remain valuable long after the first barrel is produced.

The Order reflects this priority. For projects accessing its supplementary incentives, activities are to be performed in Nigeria, subject to clearly defined exceptions and Nigerian Content requirements.

My ambition is that we use this new investment cycle to build Nigeria into Africa’s regional hub for deep offshore project execution. We should not only possess the resources. We should increasingly possess the skills, businesses and industrial capacity required to develop them.

When I engaged the Chief Executive Officer of Shell plc, Mr Wael Sawan, I directed my team to look beyond a solution for one company or one project. We needed a framework that could unlock a wider pipeline of investment while protecting Nigeria’s long-term interests.

That framework is now in place.

Ultimately, I will judge its success by what Nigerians see from it in terms of good jobs, stronger Nigerian businesses, greater production, increased revenues for the Federation and new capabilities built here at home.

Our natural resources must work harder for our people.

That is the purpose of this decision, and we will pursue it with urgency.

Nigeria First.

The fuel subsidy today would have been N53 trillion if President Tinubu hadn’t removed it, given what is happening in Iran and globally, the exchange rate of 1 naira to a dollar would have been roughly N3,500.
