Five Years After Police Bullet Injury, Ibadan Graduate Seeks Fresh Spinal Surgery
Five years after a police bullet left him with a serious spinal injury, 30-year-old Nurdeen Azeez, a graduate of The Polytechnic, Ibadan, continues to battle severe pain and financial hardship.
Azeez said he was shot on August 16, 2021, while travelling on a commercial motorcycle in Ibadan. Although the Oyo State Government later funded an initial spinal surgery, he says he still needs another operation after doctors in India recommended further treatment.
He is now appealing to individuals, organisations and relevant authorities for financial support to undergo the surgery and improve his quality of life.

BREAKING: Edo State Governor, Monday Okpebholo, has taken a swipe at Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, accusing him of prioritizing dancing over governance.
Speaking during a political event, Okpebholo said:
"Has Osun State not grown tired of having a dancing governor? Before he signs a document, he dances. Before he eats breakfast, he dances. Before he drinks tea, he dances.
"I can't even remember the last time we saw him at the Governors' Forum meeting because, before he enters the plane, he dances. Before he arrives in Abuja, we have closed, so he doesn't even know what was discussed at the meeting.
"He is not working. The best thing is to send him out of Osun State. He has now danced for four years.
"As I was coming to Osun State, even our car tyre was dancing and shaking on the road. For four years, this man has been dancing."
The remarks come amid heightened political tension ahead of the Osun governorship election.

WAEC Result Sparks Debate 🤔📚
This WAEC result belongs to my friend's daughter.
Throughout the examination period, she repeatedly told her mum that she couldn't imagine scoring a B, let alone a C. She was so confident in her preparation that she even chose not to sit for NECO.
Now that WAEC has released the results, she has 6 A1s, 2 Cs, and 1 B3.
The young girl is deeply disappointed and has asked for the affected scripts to be recalled and remarked. She insists it's impossible for her to have scored C5 in Mathematics and C6 in English Language, given how well she believes she performed.
What do you think? Could this be a genuine case for a remark, or should the result be accepted as it is?

🚨 BREAKING: Prophet Chukwuemeka "Odumeje" Ohanaemere has alleged that Nigerians publicly praising President Bola Tinubu's administration have been "bribed."
In a viral video, the cleric criticised the government's handling of the economy, questioned the continued borrowing by the Federal Government, and urged leaders to account for public funds. He also said Nigerians would make their decisions at the ballot box in 2027.
The statements are Odumeje's personal views and allegations made in a public video. There is no evidence presented in the video to substantiate the claim that supporters of the government have been bribed.

🚨 BREAKING: President Bola Tinubu has directed the EFCC to return to court and lift the order freezing the Osun State Government's bank accounts.

The President said the timing of the action, just days before the Aug. 15 governorship election, could undermine public confidence in the credibility and fairness of the electoral process. He has also instructed the EFCC to discontinue the case against the state government in this regard.

🚨 "Nigeria Can't Afford the Lagos-Calabar Highway!" 😳
Former Cross River State Governor and PRP presidential candidate, Donald Duke, has questioned the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway project, arguing that Nigeria's limited resources should be directed toward more pressing needs.
According to Duke:
"There is already a road from Lagos to Calabar. If the road is poor, fix it. The money being spent on this project could be better used to provide electricity or upgrade the healthcare system."
His comments have reignited the debate over whether the multi-trillion-naira coastal highway is a visionary investment or a misplaced priority.
💬 Do you agree with Donald Duke? Should Nigeria prioritize healthcare and electricity over new mega-road projects?

🎙️🇳🇬 From Recording Under a Blanket to Global Gospel Stardom! 🙌✨
Before becoming one of Nigeria's most celebrated gospel artists, Frank Edwards recorded his hit song "Mma Mma" while squatting in someone's house.
With just ₦150,000 given to him by his mother, he built a tiny makeshift studio in a corner of the house. There was no soundproof booth, so he covered himself and the microphone with a blanket to block out traffic noise from the nearby road.
Speaking about the experience, Frank said:
"The way I recorded Mma Mma was, I took the microphone and covered both myself and the mic with a blanket because we lived close to the roadside. I just wanted to stop the car horns and noise from entering the recording."
Amazingly, the version released to the world was the exact one recorded under that blanket.
At the time, Frank owned only two pairs of jeans, survived on one meal a day, and earned just ₦15,000 monthly.
Then came his breakthrough.
A gospel music marketer, who had heard rumors that Frank owned a "big studio," visited him. Although he found only a tiny setup, he was blown away by the music. After listening to songs including "Mma Mma," he offered Frank a ₦4 million recording deal in 2011.
Frank later joked:
"When I saw the amount, I signed immediately... Make I chop first. Na who chop dey read."
That opportunity changed his life. He moved into a better apartment, built a proper studio, and soon caught the attention of renowned American gospel singer Don Moen, who invited him to collaborate after seeing him perform at The Experience.
Never despise humble beginnings. Your current situation does not define your future. Talent, perseverance, faith, and consistency can open doors beyond your imagination. ❤️👏
