@KafinHausaa It’s a wrong plan. However, I hope you’ve condemned the Northern Govs that are reintegrating terrorists back into the society and offering them houses and stipends?
I strongly condemn today's Israeli strikes on Beirut. The strikes took place despite the ceasefire & at a time when the US & Iran are expected to reach an agreement that will pave the way to a peaceful resolution of this conflict.
This conflict is having a devastating impact on the world's economy.
I urge all parties to show maximum restraint at this crucial moment & I strongly hope for a successful outcome of the ongoing efforts by the US & Iran.

NCDMB’s Oil And Gas Park ToBecome Operational Q4 2026
The Nigerian Oil and Gas Park Scheme (NOGaPS) at Emeyal-1, in Ogbia Local Government Area of Bayelsa State will becomeoperational by the fourth quarter of 2026, the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB) has reaffirmed.
Towards the target date, the NCDMB is set to install a 2.5-megawatt Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) power plant at the park. The power plant is one of the key steps to getting the facility operational, as it will provide reliable and sustainable electricity supply to support industrial operations within the park.
The General Manager Corporate Communications NCDMB, Dr. Obinna Ezeobi gave the assurance after an assessment visit to the facility by key personnel of the Board on Friday. The tourrevealed significant progress across key infrastructure and support systems designed to position the facility as a major industrial hub for Nigeria's oil and gas industry.
The Nigerian Oil and Gas Park Scheme was conceived to deepen Nigerian Content by providing a conducive environment for the manufacturing of components, equipment and other inputs required by the oil and gas industry, while creating employment opportunities for over 2000 persons when fully operational, and stimulating economic growth.
Giving further insights into the current state of the facility, Manager Strategy and Transformation Projects, NCDMB, Mr. Olubisi Okunola explained that several critical facilities within the park have been completed and are ready for use. These include manufacturing shop floors, a fully functional water treatment plant, well-equipped accommodation facilities, modern classrooms, an amphitheater, and residential apartments for trainers, facilitators and visiting guests.
In addition to the CNG power plant, NCDMB has also completed key power infrastructure, including the switchgear building, transformers and heavy-duty generators.
To further enhance the park's capacity for manufacturing activities, the Board has also awarded a contract for the sand-filling of ponds located within the facility. Upon completion of the sand-filling exercise, six manufacturing sheds will be constructed on the reclaimed land to provide industrial spaces for prospective investors and service providers.
Environmental maintenance activities are also ongoing, with landscaping and routine facility upkeep being carried out across the park to preserve existing infrastructure and maintain operational readiness.
Ongoing works at the facility are focused on ensuring that all supporting infrastructure and utilities required for seamless operations are fully in place ahead of the park's planned operational date.
When operational, the Oil and Gas Park Scheme will serve as a strategic platform for the growth of indigenous manufacturing and service companies, reduce dependence on imported oil and gas components, create employment opportunities for Nigerians, and strengthen local participation across the oil and gas value chain.
The NCDMB remains committed to the successful delivery of the project in line with its mandate of developing in-country capacity and advancing Nigerian Content in the oil and gas industry.
Few days ago, I read in the news that the National Working Committee (NWC) of Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) had cleared a former Governor of Cross River, Donald Duke as its presidential candidate for the 2027 general elections.
Donald Duke served as the governor of Cross River State from 1999 to 2007. He is widely celebrated for his visionary leadership, transformative investments in tourism and urban development, and the implementation of significant reforms to modernize the Cross River State Civil Service.
I wonder why some of those who claim to want good governance are ignoring Donald Duke since many have said in the past that he was a better Governor than Peter Obi. Tell us, who do you believe is the better candidate between Donald Duke or Peter Obi🤔.
@NC_Okonkwo Obasanjo’s anger against Atiku is that AA vehemently opposed his third term bid. All the points you’ve raised are mere allegations that hv not been proven.
It doesn’t make sense that someone who used to sell cattle and barely made ₦100k or ₦200k a year is now kidnapping people, making over ₦5 million, and claims he has repented. Never!
