VIDEO: Okin Biscuits Resumes Production After 17-Year Shutdown

Okin Biscuits has taken a major step towards returning to the Nigerian market, as biscuits rolled off one of its rehabilitated production lines at its factory in Offa, Kwara State, for the first time in 17 years.

The company on its official Facebook handle on Wednesday said the production line had to be rebuilt after its cables, frequency drives, contactors, motors and other electronic components were stolen.

The company also announced that while further testing, calibration and rehabilitation are still required before the familiar Okin taste and quality are restored, the milestone marks significant progress towards bringing the biscuits back to the market.

There was a question about the subsidy savings. Where has it gone to? I’ve heard this question so many times. And guess what? It’s a valid question.

So where has the money gone to? And in a few days, you will see the detailed analysis.

I went to do my regular session at @Rovingheights to see what new books are out, and I found this interesting memoir by Dapo Thomas, journalist and former SA to Governor BAT in Lagos.

Author says that as Gov of Lagos, BAT had 3 categories of commissioners, based on how he treated their Memos 😂😂😂:

1. Single View

2. Multiple View

3. ‘Burial Ground’

He’s quoting BAT here (classic BATian humor spotted):

We are all wearing capes, aren’t we? Whatever is going on in our lives, we dress up, step out and do what must be done to keep going.

The trouble starts when people assume that because your cape looks finer than theirs, their battles must be heavier than yours. Nobody’s cape tells the whole story. We are all out here, dressed for a war others cannot see.

May the universe align for everyone.

Is Lagos State for Everybody or Only a Selected Few?
Around 3:20 a.m. last night, our 7-month-old baby girl started crying with a very high fever. She had been running a temperature for the past two days, but it became worse during the night. When I checked with the thermometer, her temperature had risen to 38.5°C.

My wife and I were worried. It was raining heavily, and without a car, we didn't know how we would get her to the hospital.

We used a towel soaked in water to gently wipe her body and help reduce the fever while we waited for the rain to ease.

Then I remembered the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency-LASEMA number, 112. I called at about 4:07 a.m., hoping they could help. A lady answered and asked about the emergency. I explained that my 7-month-old baby had a high fever, it was raining heavily, and we couldn't get to the hospital. She could hear my baby crying in the background.

I asked if they could send an ambulance. She immediately took my address and a nearby landmark.

At about 4:27 a.m., I received another call from the Lagos Emergency Response Call Centre. The officer informed me that an ambulance had already been dispatched. He asked how the team could locate my house because it was still dark and there might not be anyone outside to direct them. I asked if I could send my live location, but he explained that he was calling from the control centre and was not with the ambulance team.

By 5:07 a.m., the rain had stopped. I received another call informing me that the ambulance was waiting at Checkpoint Bus Stop. My wife, our baby, and I quickly took a motorcycle there, and to my surprise, the ambulance was already waiting for us.

The medical personnel welcomed us into the ambulance and asked about our baby's condition. They asked which hospital we normally used. I mentioned the new Primary Health Centre at Ilepo, but explained that it does not operate 24 hours a day. They agreed and advised us that the best option was to take our baby to GeneralHospital Badagry where she could receive proper emergency care.

I believe the ambulance couldn't reach our house because of the heavy rain and the poor condition of the Ibiye–Checkpoint–Magbon road to our street. This is another reason why that road needs urgent attention from the Lagos State Government and the local government. Good roads save lives during emergencies.

One thing that amazed me was that the ambulance came all the way from Badagry General Hospital about 24 kilometres to Checkpoint Bus Stop just to respond to our emergency. Wow. Honestly we are still shock. I only see this happen in developed countries.

For that, I sincerely commend the Lagos State Emergency Response Team. They proved that the emergency service is working and that lives truly matter.

The journey to the hospital was smooth. The Lagos–Badagry Expressway from Agbara Junction to Badagry is now a modern six-lane road with no potholes. Credit goes to former President Muhammadu Buhari for starting the project, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu for continuing it, and Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for ensuring the reconstruction around Badagry, including the road leading to the General Hospital. Good roads make emergency response faster and more effective.

At the hospital, we were asked to open a new patient file because records from the Primary Health Centre could not be accessed there. I believe Lagos State should work towards creating a unified electronic medical record system so that patients' records can be accessed at any government hospital. I no there is existing smart card, we have that with our Lagos health insurance but had expired. I'll renew it.

We paid ₦2,000 to open a new file. The doctor attended to our baby immediately and requested a Full Blood Count (FBC) test and a malaria test, which cost ₦8,000. We also bought the prescribed injections and medications from the hospital pharmacy for about ₦4,000.

"The responsibility of a state, as a sub-national government, is just like a national government, to lay out its priorities and allocate resources in a manner that reflects those priorities. Nigerians, including the media, have a duty to amplify the misuse of the State police by any government." — Senator Adams Oshiomhole

The government closest to your daily life is probably the one you know the least about. That’s a problem 😔.

Good morning

Yesterday I talked about how we’ve been programmed to see Nigeria as a failed state.

Today let’s be honest: Yes, plenty of things still dey pain us light, roads, insecurity. But pretending nothing is moving at all is also a lie we tell ourselves.

Tinubu’s government is doing the hard structural work subsidy removal, naira float, tax & electricity reforms. These are not quick fixes. They are the foundation.

The question is Are we ready to support the difficult but necessary path, or do we prefer the sweet lies that promise heaven in 2 years?

[Fisayo Ademuwagun @Tolu_7085]

Honestly, 2025 was the first time I ever collected a voters card.

I went to the INEC office 3 times early morning and lined up 3 times to get it.

My mum asked why I bothered, since I never cared about elections before.

I told her: I see what many people don’t see or don’t want to see.

I see a man closing loopholes that powerful people have been feeding from for 30 years.

When you become a threat to powerful interests, you’re bound to make powerful enemies. That’s where masses like me come in to support a man trying to put Nigeria’s economy on the right path with my vote, my voice, and by opening people’s eyes to exactly what’s going on.

Tinubu is not perfect that’s not the angle. But I believe in the economic policies he is implementing and the laws being passed. No past president dared to risk their popularity like this, just for the betterment of Nigeria.
