A very big fat lie.
I was a member and worker in LFC from Raji ọba before we moved to ota.
Was the road good for the increased traffic to that axis? NO!
Was the place a bush or forest? LIE!
The road from Sango past the church was an old tarred dual carriage road at the time.
Recently, I was telling somebody about those early days in Winners Chapel when the church first moved to Ota.
When you get to Ogun, you will spend like an hour inside bush navigating your way to find motorable path. When Winners first moved there, everywhere leading to the church was bush abi forest. This was 1999.

We need to shine more light on the positive impact of government instead of focusing on rubbish. Last week, I was in a restaurant at Jabi mall and the girl attending to me looks too young, so I had to engage her in a conversation.
During our discussion I discovered she was just 19 and when I asked why she wasn’t in school, she told me her parents couldn’t afford to send her to the university.
I told her about @NELFUND and she has NEVER heard of it. She already wrote JAMB, so I quickly called @TheresaTekenah and asked her to help me put her through and when her colleague saw what was happening, she became interested in the conversation and also informed me that she needed such assistance too. So Theresa spoke to them on my phone and exchanged numbers with them to enable her follow up
Apparently, there are a lot of people out there who have no idea what the government is doing, meanwhile the radio and TV stations are daily focused on negative stuff. All the radios stations have daily call-in programming where all they do is to abuse the government. The TV stations too and so called influencers are all focused on attacking the government but NOBODY is interested in helping to point our youths to positive policies that can benefit them?
Anyway, that is about my experience last week. Thanks to @TheresaTekenah that I have handed those young girls to. I hope they can now fulfill their dreams of going to the University soon.
Wallahi if you gathered the entire Dantata family in one place, Dangote included, and emptied every account they own, they still would not produce ₦61 trillion, over 40 billion dollars, in CASH. Even Elon Musk, the richest man on the planet, does not have that kind of money lying idle. To raise the $44 billion he paid for Twitter, he had to sell over $20 billion of his Tesla shares, take a $13 billion loan from a consortium of banks, and BEG co-investors for another $7 billion. That is what it takes for the world’s wealthiest man to gather a sum smaller than what you people claim one man in Kano kept in cash. Our problem with numbers is beginning to border on mental illness.
🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: The Royal Belgian Football Association has released a statement in regard to Folarin Balogun being able to play against them.
"The Royal Belgian Football Association (RBFA) is astonished by FIFA's decision to declare suspended United States player Folarin Balogun eligible to play in the USA–Belgium match on Monday, 6 July at 5:00 p.m. (Seattle time)."
"FIFA bases its decision on Article 27 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code. This provision states that the FIFA Disciplinary Committee may decide to suspend the enforcement of a previously imposed disciplinary sanction."
"However, Article 66.4 of the same FIFA Disciplinary Code clearly provides that a red card (sending-off) automatically results in a suspension for the team's next match, as has been the case for all previous red cards issued during this FIFA World Cup."
"Furthermore, and irrespective of the above, the decision is in direct contradiction with the provisions of the FIFA World Cup 2026 Competition Regulations, as set out in Article 10.5:
"If a player or team official is sent off as a result of a direct or indirect red card (second caution), they will automatically be suspended from their team's subsequent match. In addition, further sanctions may be imposed."
"The automatic nature of such a suspension was also explicitly reaffirmed in FIFA World Cup 2026 Circular No. 16, which was distributed to all participating member associations on 12 May 2026."
"The same rule is reiterated at every FIFA World Cup 2026 Match Coordination Meeting prior to each match and is included in all FIFA World Cup 2026 workshop presentations.
"In order to safeguard the legitimate rights of all participating teams and to protect the fundamental principles of fair play in our sport, both at this FIFA World Cup and at future editions of the tournament, the RBFA is investigating all potential options."
Red cards are not overturned by political phone calls. They are overturned by rules, evidence and independent bodies. If a U.S. President intervenes with the FIFA President — and a player is suddenly cleared before a World Cup knockout match — the question is unavoidable: Quo vadis, FIFA?
Football must never become a playground for political power. #FIFA #WorldCup #GianniInfantino #DonaldTrump
My Dear Sisters/Ladies.
I sincerely hope you are wide awake, Are you reading the room?
Have your standards , work on your financial life so deliberately, The balance is skewed against you.
Don't end up in Penury because you are being shamed, either broke , divorce or age shamed. Be clear about who you will settle down with
Go through their social media pages, out of the abundance of the heart do the mouth speaketh.
The pain of regret is worse than anything you are reading currently. Emotional torture of marriage and birthing with an irresponsible Man is worse. At least having your own money will cushion the effects for you.
Please learn , adjust or Perish. Our society especially the current crop of MT Men is brutal , The majority of them have similar ideologies only few exceptions,
May the Lord help you and my daughters all the way. Don't lose guard please.
Stay sane, stay informed, stay guided and be absolutely confident in your ability to ditch and and say No to Nonsense from anyone of them
Learn or Perish
If an estate resident defaults in paying service charge, you can withdraw the services he enjoys and sue to recover for the ones he didn't pay.
For instance, if he doesn't pay for security. When he is entering and leaving the estate, tell the security guys to let him drop from his car and open the gate with his hands. If they patrol his home, let them stop. He should be formally notified of such development.
Forget what the estate constitution says. There are certain rights that even the person meant to enjoy such rights cannot waive.
The practice of locking someone out of his home or denying him exit because he is defaulting is one that exposes the estate to potential and heavy legal consequences.
You can't also disconnect him from the power source. The estate is not a disco. Even if funds are pulled together to pay disco and he defaults, communicate his default to disco and let them do the needful. They have the mandate.
It is more worrisome that an estate into such practice has people who call themselves "senior" lawyers in the committee.
We do many funny things in this country because we've not faced heavy legal liabilities before.
If one is very conscious of rights and liabilities in Nigeria, they could be filing at least one fresh suit everyday, because people cross legal lines all the time.
Tell me why an Instagram vendor needs 14 days to process a refund. What exactly is the structure that demands such tedious and long process?
Everyone I’ve spoken with who is currently serving in government has told me that this Prince Adeniyi case is simply a scam, but when I start asking questions, none of them has been able to answer.
Yes, you can forge an appointment letter and claim that you are a DG but appointment letters are signed by the SGF not the COS. Who allegedly issued his appointment letter or what signature is his allegedly forged appointment letter showing?
Someone higher than a DG must ask that you be allocated office space in the Federal Secretariat. Who made that request?
Someone higher than a DG must write asking that you be given an alleged take-off grant. You cannot yourself write to the Budget Office and the Office of the Accountant General that you should be given a take-off grant. Who allegedly wrote?
How did the agency get into the budget?
Usually, you will go for budget defence as part of a cohort. In this case, it will probably be as part of the State House cohort. Who defended or coordinated the defence of the budget estimates before the National Assembly before they were appropriated?
Did the guy earn a salary in the more than one year he was there? If so, who documented him and asked that he be paid?
With which money was the guy running the office for more than one year if nothing was allegedly released?
Who allegedly wrote to the CBN asking them to open an account for the ‘Council’? The ‘Council’ cannot just walk into CBN and ask to open an account, as if it’s a commercial bank looking for customers.
Who allegedly approved the ‘Council’s’ manning levels and who allegedly approved the waiver to recruit 300 staff?
Was the guy allegedly really that good? Or were there egregious failings at multiple points in the system?
These questions and more are often met with deafening silence. Everyone sighs heavily and uses the ubiquitous expression “Na waa.” Me sef, I sigh heavily and answer “Na real waa!”
This is a case of the proverbial tse tse that has landed on the scrotum. Leave it and it will cause sickness and pain. Swat it and it will cause pain because of its location.
Anyhow you look at it, there are questions begging for answers. And whatever the answers will be, they will not be good.
Still, I hope that there’ll be some answers soon…for the sake of our public administration system.
I am Ezemmuo. I know things.
This Premium Times report answers one question but raises a far more serious one.
Three civil servants were officially deployed by the Office of the Accountant General to a fake agency. Their names are in court documents. Their posting letter was published on the OAGF's own website on August 28, 2025. They showed up on September 8. They were given an open office. They were never assigned any work. One came in once a week. Another three days a week. Just to show their faces, as one of them put it, because there was nothing to do.
They all said the same thing independently. They had never heard of the agency before seeing their letter of posting.
Now here is the part that matters most.
Adeyemi wrote to the Accountant General in April 2025 requesting staff deployment. The OAGF processed that request, assigned three senior civil servants to the agency, published the posting letter on their own website, and those civil servants physically resumed at a fake agency in the Federal Secretariat for weeks before anyone raised an alarm.
This is no longer a story about one con artist. This is a story about an institution that processed an official posting request from a fake agency, published the posting letter publicly on its own website, and sent three of its staff to resume duties there, all without verifying that the agency they were posting staff to was a legitimate government body.
The Budget Office has code 0111062001 for this same agency in the 2026 Appropriation Act. The CBN processed an account for it. The Federal Secretariat gave it office space. The OAGF posted staff to it and published the posting on their website.
At what point does the phrase "one lone con artist with a forged letter" become impossible to sustain with a straight face?
I INDEPENDENTLY SEARCHED NIGERIA'S BUDGET DOCUMENTS FROM 2019 TO THE PRESENT. HERE IS WHAT I FOUND ABOUT THE PFIPC SCANDAL THAT NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT.
THE NAME DID NOT COME FROM NOWHERE
Everyone is focused on Adeyemi the man. Nobody has gone back to ask where the name "Presidential Economic Advisory Council" actually came from. I did. And the answer changes this entire story.
The Presidential Economic Advisory Council is not a Tinubu creation. Tinubu's economic body is called the Presidential Economic Coordination Council. He established it in March 2024, inaugurated it in July 2024, and chairs it himself alongside Dangote, Elumelu, the Senate President and the Governors Forum Chairman. It has a different name, a different structure and a different budget code.
The Presidential Economic Advisory Council is a creation of Buhari. Buhari established it in September 2019 to replace the Economic Management Team that Osinbajo was heading. It had real named members. Prof. Doyin Salami as chairman. Charles Soludo. Bismark Rewane. Eight economists reporting directly to the President with a defined mandate and a legal institutional identity.
When Tinubu came in and created the PECC in 2024, the Buhari-era PEAC was never formally dissolved. No gazette removing it. No Budget Office circular revoking its institutional identity. It simply went dormant. But dormant in Nigeria's government system is not the same as deleted.
That dormant status is exactly what was exploited.
