#Breaking 🚨
🇺🇸 Donald Trump: "Listen very carefully, Riyadh. Keep playing games with oil production, cutting supplies, or looking for partners outside the dollar, and you'll find out how fast your economic security can vanish. We dictate the terms of global energy, not you!" ⚠️🛢️🔥
🇸🇦 Riyadh: "Try placing your ultimatums elsewhere, Washington. The days of taking orders are over; we steer our own ship, set our own prices, and partner with whoever serves our sovereign interests best!" 🛡️⚡👑
🚨 BREAKING
Tensions escalate between Washington and Ankara
Donald Trump issues a strong warning to Turkey, while President Erdoğan responds defiantly, rejecting any form of economic or political pressure.

Could this growing war of words lead to a serious diplomatic crisis ?
If your vote is for Atiku and you truly mean it, like and comment with your OPay account details, so the money can drop for you sharp-sharp @HHMustaphaAA#AtikuisComing
🔥 What a great achievement of Trump. 🤡
Today, 🇺🇸 Trump has become one of the most hated leaders in the world, second only to 🇮🇱Netanyahu.
And an even bigger achievement of Trump is that after Israel, the US has become the second-most hated country in the world.
People around the world are now looking at the US with the same hatred and anger with which they look at Israel. 🤡
📍🇮🇷🇺🇸 NEW:
Iran says "we will not allow a single drop of oil to pass through the Persian Gulf" if any neighboring country participates in President Trump's economic war threats.
🚨 BREAKING:
🇮🇱 Israel: "Our long-range fighter jets can cross the borders of three countries, drop missiles on targets, and return without leaving a trace on radar."
🇮🇷 Iran: "You operate covertly because you fear open warfare. When our missiles are launched, we mark their warheads with our insignia so the world knows who attacked you."
🇺🇸 Reporter: “Israel is threatening Turkey.”
🇮🇷 Araghchi: “We will stand with Turkey. But ask yourselves why does Israel keep waging one war after another, and where does all the money for these wars come from?”
🎯 He shifted the entire conversation in one answer.
Araghchi playing 4D diplomatic chess. 🔥👏
BREAKING: Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain are now privately reaching out to Iran for new security arrangements, sending multiple messages almost daily to Iran out of concern that the US cannot protect them anymore due to interceptor shortages and the vulnerability of hosted US bases, per Iran's Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf and a senior Iranian source in Tehran familiar with the matter.
Ghalibaf says "we've received numerous messages from neighboring countries about shaping new security arrangements and economic cooperation in the region. The United States put the security of every single one of its allies at such risk, through bullying and pure disregard for their interests for the sake of Israel that they briefly saw their entire existence on the line."
I can't be President Tinubu’s campaign DG because I'm not a member of the APC. People don't understand. It's not that one is not qualified. Who's more qualified than me? Even if Mr. President calls me, I'll say no and tell him why.
In 2015, the Minister of Transport was the governor of Rivers State. He was the DG of Muhammadu Buhari. Before you knew, I pulled the carpet off his feet. He lost. He didn’t get 25 percent. In 2019, he was Minister of Transport; he became the DG, and he lost his state too.
Bukola Saraki was the DG of Atiku campaign in 2019. He was running around doing ‘Atikulated’, I called him, ‘Why are you doing Atikulated? Go home!’ He lost his state! Lost his own seat, too!
In 2023, Aminu Tambuwal became DG of Atiku. He lost his state! In the same 2023, Lalong was the DG of APC, the present president. He lost his state!
I don’t want to lose my state! I will be in my state. I have two states: FCT and Rivers. What is important is that you are able to deliver those two states. So it is not about being DG. If you are DG and you don’t win your state, what is the essence of the DG?”
- FCT Minister Nyesom Wike responds to a question on whether he would have wanted to be DG of the APC presidential campaign council.
Media: North Korea has announced plans to sign a defense pact with Iran.
North Korea has stated its intention to sign a defense agreement with Iran. If finalized, this move could lead to a deepening of military cooperation between Pyongyang and Tehran.
This potential agreement is being discussed against the backdrop of ongoing tensions between Iran, the United States, and Israel, and could add a new dimension to security cooperation and military relations between North Korea and Iran.
The finalization of such an agreement could have consequences beyond the bilateral relationship, and could impact the regional security balance, as well as the reaction from Washington and Tel Aviv.
A horrifying case in Brazil.
24-year-old nursing technician Emiliane Tamara Nunes Carvalho disappeared on August 17 in Águas Lindas de Goiás.
Five days later, police found her alive inside a rented house, chained to a bed, restrained and unable to leave. Her former partner, Ailton Rodrigues de Souza, was arrested after fleeing from police.
Emiliane told investigators and later the public that he had abducted her and subjected her to prolonged abuse. She was taken to hospital after being rescued and has since been discharged.
Police recovered evidence from the property, and the suspect remains in preventive detention as the investigation continues. The charges include kidnapping, unlawful imprisonment and rape.
Suspected IS-Sahel fighters attacked a camp of the Nigerien military in Tessa, Dosso region southeast of the capital Niamey yesterday, reportedly killing around 20 soldiers and burning the camp.
Sidin said something that shocked me deeply, and I still remember it clearly.
After we had already paid the N15 million ransom, we were begging him to reduce the additional N55 million he was demanding. On that particular day, I helped him do something on his phone, and he seemed happy with me. Then, out of nowhere, he asked me, “How much do you think your people can raise to free you?”
I told him I honestly didn’t know, but that we could still struggle to raise about N3 million.
Immediately, he became angry.
He looked at me and said, “What is N3 million? I give my wife N1 million to N2 million.”
I was completely shocked.
Imagine being held captive, scared for your life, knowing that your family had already struggled to pay N15 million for your freedom, and then hearing your captor casually say that N3 million was nothing to him, that he gives his wife N1 million or N2 million.
His wife’s name is Adiza. I knew her name because whenever he called her, I would hear him mention it.
That statement broke something inside me. At that moment, I realized just how much money these people were dealing with while my family was struggling desperately to save my life. 💔
Even now, remembering that conversation still gives me chills. 💔😭
They should investigate this girl well. The money be like ransom money. 😳
This Fulani young girl has been trending online after a viral video showed her buying an iPhone 17 Air worth about ₦1.5 million above and paying with thick bundles of cash.
In the video posted by TikTok user Fakafahka001, the girl meticulously brought out bundle after bundle of naira notes to pay for the luxury phone.
The amount of cash she was carrying has got people asking questions about where the money came from.
Bandit girlfriend? Husband in the desert, wife in the city....🥺
Hajiya Hadiza Bala has been all up and doing for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, so I genuinely wonder how she sleeps at night knowing that the very person who played a significant role in getting her to where she is today (Elrufai) is now being persecuted by the same person she has devoted herself to promoting (Tinubu). I am genuinely curious, how do these people reconcile such contradictions within themselves? How do you passionately promote somebody that goes after the very first person that literally opened the door for you and made you who you are today? What kind of conscience makes that easy to live with?

Isa Ashiru @IsaAshiruKudan spent 8 years in Kaduna State House of Assembly, another 8 years in the House of Representatives, and held different positions in Kaduna State ministries. That’s more than 30 years in public service.
But after all those years, what can we point to and say, “This is what Isa Ashiru achieved for the people of Kaduna”?
For someone who has spent over 30 years in government to now seek the highest office in Kaduna without a clear achievement to show for it is not just disappointing; it is insulting to the people of Kaduna State.
If he has any sense of responsibility, he should step down, accept his record, and allow Kaduna to move forward.
@DanKatsina50 Abdulaziz Yari, former governor of Zamfara has gladly accepted to be the DG of Escobars 2027 campaign and is boasting of delivering the north and Nigeria. They see these incidents but it doesnt matter to them. They must deliver the north to Escobar at all cost - dead or alive.
BOOOOOOOOM 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
🪖👮In a well-coordinated operation, the NSCDC and the Nigeria Police Force have arrested and neutralised a significant number of insurgents in Sokoto State.
Another clear result of inter-agency synergy delivering results where it matters.
💪🫡Kudos to the operatives on the ground.
