Nigerian travel content creator Alma Asinobi is on a mission to break a Guinness World Record by visiting all seven continents in under 60 hours. But beyond speed, her journey highlights the struggles of “low-mobility” passport holders, like Nigerians, who face visa restrictions.
Dear @cenbank, if you follow this thread, you will note three main propositions:
1. Banks are selling mint notes to POS businesses their staff own
2. POS operators are withdrawing mint notes from ATMs using multiple cards
3. POS operators are buying cash from filling stations and markets, which means that banks are not getting cash deposits.
I suspect that ALL three situations above may be at play here. Is sanctioning banks that don’t load their ATMs and limiting POS withdrawals to N100,000 enough to address this situation or do you want to look into the matter further?
“Nigerians are not worth fighting for.” I hear that every now and then, and I’ve always disbelieved it.
Yesterday, you proved me right. You all are the reason my detention by @HQNigerianArmy lasted ‘only’ three days. I’m a free man today because of your social media engagements with #FreeFisayoNow and the publications/broadcasts by the traditional media. And I can prove it.
After my arrest at about 2am on Wednesday, I was grilled by different levels of the Army until deep into the night. I didn’t return to my cell until at least 11pm on Wednesday. My case was then forwarded to a superior office that was to interrogate me on Thursday.
Surprisingly, Thursday was uneventful; from morning until night, this office never sent for me. I soon learnt the Army would take “as long as it wanted” to conduct their “investigation” just to establish that I was indeed an investigative journalist.
To my utmost surprise, on Friday morning, at about 11am or thereabouts, I was retrieved from my cell for transfer to the Military Intelligence Brigade (MIB). It was during the transfer that someone who ran into me asked to know my name, after which they said: “You’re the one; you’re in the news.”
Without your pressure, I’d still be in that cell by now, away from civilisation and held incommunicado. So, yes, my freedom is your freedom. This victory exists because of you, you and you. Thank you!
Amnesty International calls for the immediate and unconditional release of investigative journalist Fisayo Soyombo, who was arrested by the 6 Division of the Nigerian Army @HQNigerianArmy Port Harcourt. Arbitrary arrest is unlawful.
We stand in solidarity with @fijnigeria in condemning the arrest & detention of investigative journalist @fisayosoyombo by the 6 Division of the Nigerian Army in PH since Nov 26.
Fisayo has courageously risked his safety to expose corruption and advocate for integrity in Nigeria’s public systems.

Fisayo did a fantastic job to reveal the heinous crimes that are being committed by @CustomsNG . Up till this moment, nothing has been done to investigate the persons involved. He has done tonnes of work exposing evil in this country. The Nigerian Military has held him in custody for three days. He’s just a journalist trying to make this Country work. #FreeFisayoNow !!!
All his devices have been seized.
The Army must preserve his evidence and truth.
Don't destroy the evidence.
We insist the truth must come out. It's in your custody, don't destroy the evidence.

I think enough time has passed, please Barrister is not a title, stop calling yourself Barrister Korede or Barrister Funmi,

Information reaching us is that members of @cci_ibadan workforce are currently undergoing interrogations for their ‘crimes’ against their church members! ���😂
Are they really guilty? 👀
The LAG-ID card by @LASRRA_LASG is a multipurpose card with a lot of great features, including its ability to be used to make payments. Watch as I show how it’s done.
I have 10 copies of @UdoIlo's book 'It is POSSIBLE' to give to 10 people who promise to read it, and who will be physically present to receive it either at the soft launch in Lagos on September 30 or at the main unveiling in Abuja on October 14.
Five in Lagos, five in Abuja.
