INEC staff is the least paid staff in Nigeria. If we want to demand and hold our staff responsible, we should give them a living wage. We have now removed INEC from the civil servants' salary structure to have their own salary structure.

Late President Muhammadu Buhari – "I don't have companies. I don't attach much to materialism, especially materialism that was at the expense of the development of the country. I have a clear conscience, I feel I can face God with confidence."
BREAKING: Edo State Special Court set up by Governor Okpebholo to handle cult-related and kidnapping cases has delivered judgment in its first case by sentencing four suspected kidnappers to death by hanging over the kidnapping of one Precious Oseghale at Vegetable Market along Airport Road in Benin City on June 14th, 2026.
Justice T. A. Momodu found the four suspects guilty on the 11-count charge relating to alleged kidnapping, armed robbery, cultism, and unlawful possession of firearms.
The judge also rejected the alibi defence presented by the suspects, noting that they did not raise it during police questioning.
The four suspected kidnappers are:
- Marvellous Isaac, aged 32
- Wisdom Michael, aged 36
- Rufus Emete Michael, aged 30
- Gift Raphael, aged 27
The special court was established by the Chief Judge of Edo State to facilitate the speedy trial of cases involving alleged cultism and kidnapping, following a request by Governor Okpebholo to the Chief Judge on June 19.
The governor had also vowed to sign the death warrant for kidnappers and cultists convicted under state laws and have them executed by hanging.
“We are going to set up a special court to prosecute kidnappers and cultists. Within two weeks, the court is done with proceedings. I will sign your execution. We will take you to the Ring Road roundabout so that Edo people can watch. I will have no regret about it. Don’t take my simplicity for granted,” the governor had said.
VIDEO ARCHIVE: LATE FORMER PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI'S CNN INTERVIEW
Interviewer: IMF is calling on you to devalue the Naira... are you prepared to reconsider?
Buhari: No! I have explained that. Countries that play around with their currencies, are countries that have enormous production capacities. There are factories in place, there are infrastructure in terms of Power, Communications and Security... Nigeria virtually imports everything, from rice to toothpick. Now, if we don't have the money to import those things, what is the value to further devaluing our currency?
Interviewer: Well, you're going against the advice of the IMF.
Buhari: Why not? If it is against our national interest, why can't we go against IMF advice?
Late President Muhammadu Buhari, your favorite illiterate who became president, vehemently defended Nigeria from modern day colonialism, and succeeded, because they had no leverage over him.

The same people stopped me last Friday; I even told them they have no right to stop vehicles on a federal road. To save time, my sister just dashed them 2k
“The court ruling that stopped VIO from operating was only in Abuja, not in the states, so I have the right to stop a vehicle.”
Drama ensues between VIO officers in Osun State and a man after the officers stopped a vehicle, with the man insisting that they had no right to stop them.
