You’re asking the right question. Buying a machine from China and plugging it into the electricity supply in Africa is absolutely NOT manufacturing. At most you’ve changed the location of the machine.

The sooner countries across Africa start grappling with this issue, the better the chances of actual development happening.

N1.01 TRILLION FOR INEC PERSONNEL IN A NON ELECTION YEAR: Tinubu and the APC 'Economic Reform' Lies

You would have heard APC defendants say things like, "Tinubu is making bold reforms".

You see, that word sounds so formal and revolutionary that merely mentioning it feels enough on its own.

So, they'd point to things like floating the naira, removal of subsidy and that's all.

What I want to show you in this post is how much this man is ruining us, the economy, and why Tinubu has killed this nation.

The 2026 budget actually reveals what Tinubu thinks of the economy: a way to embezzle on proportions never seen before.

Let me start from the top. The budget is around N51 trillion naira.

A staggering N1.01 trillion has been given to INEC for 'perosnnel cost' in a non election year.

It gets worse. N5 trillion capital supplementation categorised under CRF charges.

Let explain this one. Capital Supplementation is money not assigned to any ministry or project or anything.

It is like an emergency fund for quick things the government needs to do.

Imagine your dad gives you 50k to buy 'whatever the house needs' without making a shopping list.

Now, if the money is spent, we have almost no way to track it.

Under Buhari, N563 billion naira.

It is 5 trillion under Tinubu.

When this is embezzled, it would be a 5 trillion naira slush for whatever Tinubu wants to do.

It gets worse. N286 billion naira for a single road research agency in Lagos.

Road research agency.

N6.14 billion for Tinubu's international travel. N6.1 billion.

In comparison, the Strategic Food Reserve is N1.86 billion.

It gets worse.

In sectors like Information, Personnel Costs (N5.27B) dwarf the actual Capital (N1.43B).

This pattern is repeated across the budget.

I am sharing all these because those who support Tinubu would point to fractional things like loans, subsidy removal etc.

While these things are economic disasters themselves, it is like praising the destroying your farm for giving you two loaves of bread.

It is like commending the person stealing all the food in your kitchen for making maggi cheaper for you to buy.

I see some people praise the tax reforms.

And it breaks my heart that Tinubu has the least informed and critical masses to govern.

This man is actively rubbing your commomwealth.

This budget is allocates N15trn to debt servicing.

That means we are using like 31% of our budget to pay the interest on money he borrowed.

Interest, not the actual money owed.

So, is this whom you lots are praising?

Why? Why?

This man is pilaging Nigeria. He is directly responsible for every economic woes because he is embezzling an astronomical amounts of money.

This is why our economy is the way it. He is not reforming. He is destroying.

OpenAI's AI broke out of a locked test environment, got onto the internet, and hacked into Hugging Face's servers. It did this entirely on its own. No human told it to.

Here's what happened in plain English.

OpenAI was testing how good its newest AI models are at hacking. They put the AI on a locked computer with no internet access and gave it a cybersecurity challenge to solve.

The AI couldn't solve it the normal way. So it started looking for a way out.

It found a software bug that nobody knew about. It used that bug to escape the locked computer and get onto the internet.

Once online, the AI figured out that Hugging Face, a platform where AI companies store their models and data, might have the answers to its test.

It found stolen login details and discovered another unknown bug in Hugging Face's software. It combined both to break into their servers and grab the test answers.

It did all of this to cheat on a test.

Hugging Face's security team caught it and shut it down. Both companies are now working together on the investigation.

The part that should get your attention is that nobody programmed any of this. The AI picked its own targets, chained together multiple attack methods, and pulled it off across two different companies' systems without a single human telling it what to do.

The trend on social media where a wife says that all her husband does is “go to work” and then proceeds to list out every task associated with her job at home as if each individual task is a separate “job” has got to be one of the most disingenuous and ridiculous ways to argue a point.

If you’re going to break your job down by all the individual tasks, then do the same for him.

“He doesn’t help with the laundry at home.”

Ok, and my wife didn’t help me with counter terrorism operations at work.

We engaged in something called specialization and division of labor.

But we also engaged in something else that was pretty important. Gratitude and Appreciation.

If you want to be appreciated for what you do, don’t demean what he does on social media.

And guys, if your wife does work in the home, appreciate your wife for the work that goes into making a house a home.

And for the love of all that is holy, whether you’re a wife or a husband, don’t demean your spouse on social media for clout.

It’s been 62 days, Mr President @officialABAT!
It usually takes 6-8 hours for children to go to school and return home, these children have been gone for SIXTY-TWO DAYS and not hours! We’re painfully waiting for our children!!!! #BringBackOurChildren

EFCC Secures Final Forfeiture of University, Radio Station, 46 Other Properties Linked to Malami

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Wednesday, July 15, 2026, secured the final forfeiture of 48 properties linked to a former Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, SAN, to the Federal Government of Nigeria.

Among the forfeited properties are  Rayhaan University, Kebbi State, including the Rayhaan University Permanent Site, Rayhaan University Temporary Site, Rayhaan University Third Site, the Rayhaan University Vice Chancellor's House and  Rayhaan Radio along Sani Abacha Bypass Road, Birnin Kebbi.

Delivering judgment, Justice Joyce Abdulmalik of the Federal High Court, Abuja, held that the Commission had successfully established that the properties were reasonably suspected to be proceeds of unlawful activities and were not acquired from lawful sources of income.

The properties finally forfeited to the Federal Government are: a luxury duplex at Amazon Street, Plot No. 3011 within Cadastral Zone A06, Maitama District, Abuja (File No. AN 11352); a two-winged large three-storey building situated at No. 3 Onitsha Crescent, Area 11, Garki, Cadastral Zone A03, Abuja (formerly Harmonia Hotels Limited); Plot 683, Jabi District, Cadastral Zone B04, comprising a five-storey building (now luxurious Meethaq Hotels Ltd., Jabi, with 53 rooms/suites); Property No. 3130 within Cadastral Zone A04, Asokoro District, FCT, Abuja, comprising terraces; Property No. 3 Rhine Street, Maitama, Abuja (Meethaq Hotels Ltd., Maitama, with 15 rooms); and Plot No. 1241B, Asokoro District (No. 11A Yakubu Gowon Crescent), Asokoro District.

Others are: Shop No. C52, Citiscape – Shariff Plaza, Plot 739, Cadastral Zone A07, Aminu Kano Crescent, Wuse II, FCT, Abuja; No. 4 Ahmadu Bello Way, Nasarawa GRA, Kano; Plot 157, Lamido Nasarawa GRA, Kano; a commercial plaza comprising commercial toilets, laundering facilities, warehouse tanks adjacent to Birnin Kebbi Market; 100 hectares of land along Birnin Kebbi–Jega Road; and another 100 hectares of land along Birnin Kebbi–Jega Road.

Others are: a four-bedroom bungalow at Gesse Phase II, Birnin Kebbi; Shops Nos. A36 and B3, Vegas Mall, Wuse II, Abuja; No. 26 Babbi Drive, BUA Estate, Abuja; No. 27 EFAB Estate, 5th Avenue, 59th Crescent, Gwarimpa, Abuja; a four-bedroom house with two-room boys' quarters at No. 10B Doka Crescent, Abakpa GRA, Kaduna; Plot No. 13, IPENT 7 Estate, Karsana District, Abuja; a bedroom duplex with boys' quarters at No. 12 Yalinga Street, off Adetokunbo Ademola Crescent, Wuse II, Abuja; two warehouse shops B40 and B46, Wuse Market, Abuja; acquisition of twin houses at Zone E, Apo Legislative Quarters, Cadastral Zone B01, Plot 1401, Gudu District, Abuja; and properties acquired by Khadimiyya for Justice & Development Initiative at the Academic Garden City, Birnin Kebbi, sold by the Federal Housing Authority Mortgage, namely: nine units of three-bedroom bungalows, three units of two-bedroom bungalows, and 5.4 hectares of land.

Also forfeited are the Rayhaan Agro Allied Factory in Kebbi State, including the factory buildings, factory machines and plant units, factory mosque, Rayhaan Mill staff quarters, and the Rayhaan Bustan Building.
 Others are assets at Azbir Arena, Kebbi State, including Azbir Hotel, Printing Press, Gallery, Gardens, Mosque, Azbir Clothing, and Azbir Pharmacy and Supermarket.
Other forfeited properties include the Al-Afiya Energy tanker garage opposite Rayhaan University Health Centre along Sani Abacha Bypass Road, Birnin Kebbi; Rayhaan Security House off Sani Abacha Bypass, Birnin Kebbi; an uncompleted two-storey plaza located opposite Central Motor Park (Eastern Park), Birnin Kebbi; Amasdul Oil and Gas Ltd. filling station structure along Sani Abacha Bypass Road, Birnin Kebbi, near Jambali Automobile Workshop; the assets of Zeennoor Hotel at Kabuga Satellite Town, off Gwarzo Road, Kano, with 131 rooms; Zeennoor Mosque at Kabuga Satellite Town, off Gwarzo Road, Kano; and the old Zeennoor Hotel building.

It would be recalled that on January 6, 2026,  Justice Emeka Nwite granted the interim forfeiture order following an ex parte motion moved by counsel to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ekele Iheanacho, SAN.
Sequel to the granting of the interim forfeiture order, and in compliance with the order of the court, the EFCC published the interim order in national dailies, inviting interested persons to come forward and show cause why the final forfeiture order should not be granted in favour of the Federal Government of Nigeria.

The EFCC subsequently filed a motion for the final forfeiture of all the properties.

Meanwhile, following the publication of the interim order, Mr. Malami, SAN, and 14 other persons, mainly his family members and associates, filed applications to show cause and also urged the court to set aside the interim forfeiture order on the properties. They further challenged the jurisdiction of the court to grant the order and urged it not to grant the final forfeiture order.

The case was heard before  Justice Joyce Abdulmalik on May 27, 2026, and the matter was thereafter adjourned for judgment.

Delivering judgment on Wednesday,  the court held that the EFCC had sufficiently established that the 48 properties were reasonably suspected to have been acquired with proceeds of unlawful activities, and that the respondents failed to discharge the evidential burden placed on them, as they could not show the legitimate sources of the funds used in acquiring the properties.

The court further held that the respondents merely claimed ownership of the properties without providing proof of how they acquired them with funds from lawful sources.

According to the court, non conviction-based forfeiture proceedings require respondents to adduce evidence showing the lawful sources of the funds used in acquiring the properties, and not merely make bare assertions of ownership.
