My only problem with him is that he became president late. He should have fought for that position during Yar’Adua’s time. Who knows, he might have won.
My brother, in this same canada? Where taxes are draconian? Where inflation has been on the rise year after year?
Same canada where middle class families depend on food banks funded majorly by the public sector?
Same canada where families are neck deep in credit card debts? Where survival is largely hinged on credits?
Same canada? Everything that’s given back is being funded by the taxes of people, it’s not a free gift.
See the drama that ensued both political and religiously when it was time to enact a new tax law in Nigeria. A law that supposedly protected the lower class from taxation, yet it was fought against. How exactly is revenue supposed to created for all those welfare programs?
This was the mentality that Buhari had that he continued to subsidize everything, even if it meant borrowing for it, printing money for it, and using our future earnings from oil as collateral. All to ensure Nigerians don’t “suffer”.
What was the outcome? An economy driven to comatose and ruins. Ironically, the same people he wanted to help called him wicked and heartless.
Please, allow us to grow and get to our destination. These countries didn’t just become what they are overnight. There’s more work to be done, yes. The leaders can do a whole lot better, yes.
But, without a stable economy, nothing can be achieved.
The NGO bill is not a dangerous bill.
If your NGO work is genuine, why are you afraid of registration?
Why are you afraid of disclosing your donors and publishing your audit? Only those with something to hide will oppose the bill.
Nigeria is one of the largest recipients of aid in the world. Many NGO’s gets grants for health, education and humanitarian response and most of the money disappears into private pockets under the guise of charity.
The bill will close the loopholes for money laundering and terrorism financing.
Nigeria has reached another major milestone in the delivery of Project BRIDGE with the incorporation of Bridge Open Access (Bridge OA), the independent company that will deliver one of Africa’s largest open access fibre infrastructure programmes.
This marks the transition from planning to execution, creating the institutional platform that will complete strategic investor onboarding, accelerate nationwide broadband deployment, and position Nigeria as a regional digital connectivity hub for West Africa.

Anyone who doubts Peter Obi’s full support for Harry’s sustained insults on these respected Nigerians is simply fooling themselves. Recall Prof Wole Soyinka’s reaction when Obi’s mob abruptly ceased the social media attacks directed at him after Obi pressed the phone in Prof’s presence.
Obi consistently stays aloof to prevents being suspected as Harry’s backer. However, those who personally associate with Obi day-to-day have openly praised Harry on this space: Serah Ibrahim, Inibehe Effiong and Dele Farotimi are a few who openly fraternise with Harry, praising him for his jibes.
In Basketball even giant fit collect blocking. Never underestimate any player. Well done our Queens. Finishing 67-70 was impressive. E no easy!!. Baba God we see your handwork!

Iron scavenging (Bolar Bolar) has to be criminalized at this point of madness that they have reached. They are damaging critical public infrastructure and trespassing into restricted areas, all in the name of scavenging. It has become an organized crime ring.
I just saw a shocking video of these criminals damaging a newly constructed bridge in Lagos to steal the iron rebar.
In Abeokuta, the 6ft tall, 150meter long iron barricade wall at Panseke (which restricts pedestrians to the bridge) is being cut down every night, and I believe they sell it. They are now halfway through it.
They are also quietly cutting away same iron barricades at Iyana Mortuary, Itoku, Kuto etc. Every morning, you notice a chunk of the wall is gone.
The iron barrier that protects vehicles on the Akin Olugbade bridge from veering into the Ogun river has been completely removed.
Every street, every corner, and every morning, you find them digging into people’s wastes uninvited, making a mess.
We need to come together and end this thing!
"Nigeria has struck a gas-supply agreement for its long-idle Ajaokuta Steel Company, a step officials say brings the West African nation closer to reviving a plant that has swallowed more than $8 billion in public money over five decades without ever rolling a single coil of steel.
Under the arrangement, up to 50 million standard cubic feet of gas a day will feed a power plant that services the sprawling metals complex on the banks of the Niger River, about 200 kilometers south of Abuja." -Business Day
At their absolute prime, I’d take Iniesta as the better central midfielder, but it’s extremely close.
Iniesta had a level of press resistance, ball carrying, close control and manipulation of space that was crazy. He could receive under pressure, eliminate a player, carry the ball through the next line and then create something. His ability to control the rhythm of a game while also being a genuine progression threat is what gives him the edge for me.
Modric, though, was arguably the more complete midfielder. His passing range, defensive work, ability to dictate tempo, switching of play and longevity at the highest level give him a very strong case. He could operate deeper and influence virtually every phase of the game.
The distinction for me is:
Ball carrying / press resistance: Iniesta
1v1 ability: Iniesta
Creativity in tight spaces: Iniesta
Progressing through carries: Iniesta
Passing range: Modric
Tempo control: Modric
Defensive contribution: Modric
Long-range distribution: Modric
Overall longevity: Modric
Prime Iniesta was a midfielder who could completely destabilize an opponent simply by receiving the ball. Modric could control a game better over 90 minutes, but Iniesta could change the game with individual actions in a way very few central midfielders ever could.
Mediterranean Shipping Company, the world’s largest shipping company with over 7 million twenty-foot equivalent units capacity, just started weekly services to Lekki Port, Nigeria’s deepest seaport at 16.5 metres.
Lekki Port handled 40.6% of Nigeria’s total cargo in 2025. Now the world’s biggest shipping line is calling weekly.
From 54,000 twenty-foot equivalent units in 2023 to 40.6% of national cargo. Mediterranean Shipping Company weekly service is now live at Lekki Port.
For communities that have endured years of difficult and hazardous river crossings, the Buruku–Logo Bridge addresses longstanding transportation challenges and greater economic opportunity.
Residents welcomed the Federal Government's intervention, expressing confidence that the completed bridge will reduce boat accidents, facilitate commerce and create further employment opportunities for local youths.
Already, more than 50 members of the host community are engaged on the project, underscoring its immediate impact beyond the construction site.

If you blame this on hunger, Ogun go help me take you!
If you blame it on any political party, Songo go help me strike you!
The citizens of countries facing wars, who barely see daily food don't behave this way. This is a serious crime against humanity
