The best airport in Nigeria today is the Akwa Ibom new terminal. With the resources that state is getting , it can easily compete with Dubai or Singapore in terms of infrastructure and tourism.
@DaveUmahi@DSGovernment , please do something about the terrible terrible roads in Delta state. Inspite of huge FAAC and IGR , both state and federal roads are impassable. Poor nigerians are really suffering sha.
#lagosgovernor , don't we have LG chairman at Festac -seme border. The road is littered with refuse end to end, in complete contrast to the clean streets of cotonou. That axis is such an eyesore and gives a bad image of the state.
@thecableng Exactly. Just give us good democratic governance, irrespective of who is at the helm of affairs. We need good roads, good hospitals, good schools, food security and above all, security of lives and properties.
In the face of serious security threats, you are still smiling. School children have been abducted, vice principal killed,a theater Commandant killed in a most horrendous manner, and we still have the mind for socialising. So sad.
I had the privilege today of meeting with His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, at the State House in Abuja. As always, the President received me with characteristic warmth and generosity of spirit; an attitude for which the people and Government of Kaduna State remain deeply appreciative.
Our discussions were both substantive and forward-looking. I expressed my profound gratitude to the President for his unwavering support to Kaduna State, particularly in the critical sectors of agriculture and agribusiness. With his encouragement, Kaduna has emerged as a national pacesetter: indeed, the first sub-national entity in Nigeria to establish both a Special Agro-Industrial Processing Zone (SAPZ) and an African Quality Assurance Centre (AQAC). These institutions will serve as catalytic anchors for modern agribusiness, export competitiveness, and the expansion of very crucial agricultural value chains across Northern Nigeria and the wider Sahel.
The President was particularly gratified to learn that agriculture remains the cornerstone of our development strategy, a commitment reflected in our proposed 2026 budget, where sectoral allocations will once again exceed the Malabo Declaration benchmark of dedicating at least 10 percent of total public expenditure to agriculture.
I also conveyed our gratitude for the Federal Government’s robust backing of Kaduna State’s ambitious transportation modernisation agenda. I provided the President with a detailed update on our landmark Light Rail initiative and our Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system, the second of its kind in Nigeria after Lagos; both of which will redefine mobility, productivity, and economic integration in our state.
Equally important, the President reaffirmed his strong support for our efforts to deepen peace and security, as well as his commitment to the accelerated completion of key federal infrastructure projects, notably the Abuja–Kaduna–Zaria–Kano expressway.
It was, in every respect, a productive and highly rewarding engagement with Mr. President.

At the Abuja airport on international flight, no enough trolleys for passengers. At a point, passengers were informed trolleys were exhausted. We can do better as a country.@ministerofaviation @festuskeyamo, please take note and amend this anomaly. It's so embarrassing.

This is a fact. @TheNyesomWike has done in FCT what other ninisters couldnt do in their uneventful long tenures, except Elrufai. Wike with all his nuances, is about the best performing minister in this administration. I give my respect to him.
Bala was FCT minister for 5 years, Wike has been FCT minister for a year plus, Wike has commissioned more projects than Bala 5 years
Wike was governor for 8yrs with over 680 commissioned projects and Bala for 6years with less than 100 commissioned projects
The Records are there
PRESS RELEASE
INTELLIGENCE-DRIVEN POLICING: POLICE FOIL MULTIPLE BANDIT ATTACKS ACROSS SEVERAL STATES, INTENSIFIES FIGHT AGAINST HUMAN TRAFFICKING.
As Operatives Neutralize Threats, Recover Sophisticated Arms, Ammunition, Rescues 207 Abducted Children.
The Nigeria Police Force in line with its commitment at the beginning of the year to adopt a more proactive approach in its efforts to combat crime across the nation, has once again recorded milestone achievements through intelligence-led policing. On January 18th 2025, Police operatives attached to the Kogi State Command got information of a group of armed bandits holding a strategic meeting for possible attack at a forest in Budon, Kogi State. Gallant operatives of the Command were mobilized and deployed to the scene. Upon sighting the police operatives, the bandits engaged the police operatives in a fierce gun duel. Fortunately, the bandits were overpowered, with one bandit neutralized and 4 others arrested. The operatives also recovered 1 AK-47 rifle, 2 magazines, 30 rounds of live ammunition and 2 motorcycles.
Similarly, on same January 18th 2025, a distress call was received at the Dutsinma Divisional Police Headquarters, Katsina State that some suspected armed bandits, armed with dangerous weapons, were headed to attack Ruwan Doruwa Village, Dutsinma LGA of the State. Upon receipt of this call, Police operatives in collaboration with other security agencies mobilized, intercepted the armed bandits and engaged them in a fierce gun battle ultimately leading to the neutralization of 7 of the bandits, with the rest of the gang fleeing and abandoning 109 livestock suspected to be rustled animals.
In a significant development, the Nigeria Police Force has escalated its initiatives to combat human trafficking and the operation of illegal baby factories, successfully rescuing more than 207 abducted children from suspected traffickers nationwide. A significant breakthrough was achieved with the arrest of a syndicate involved in child abduction and trafficking by the Ondo State Police Command, following intelligence regarding a missing child at Okuta Elerin-Nla, Akure. The operatives apprehended members of the syndicate, identified as Abosede Olanipekun ‘f’, Lukman Isiaka ‘m’, and Sabira Izuorah ‘f’, and rescued 14 children between the ages of 1 week – 7 years old.
The success of these operations is a significant blow against those who serve as threats to our nation’s security, contributing to the overall efforts of the Force to enhance public safety. The Nigeria Police Force remains steadfast in the dedication to duty and commitment to safeguarding the lives and property of all citizens. The Force will continue to take a firm stance against criminal activities and ensure that offenders are brought to justice, reaffirming its role as the protector of peace and security of our society.
