I was a bit upset too when I first saw the clip until I watched the full video. I honestly don’t see what the outrage is about.
She never said people should go and start frying akara or kulikuli. She was only explaining the empowerment programmes she has carried out, the grants that have been distributed, and how some small businesses don’t require millions to get off the ground.
Funny how you guys conveniently skipped the part where she talked about the billions donated to cancer intervention, healthcare, education, agriculture, and other empowerment initiatives.
Let’s pretend that there are no people that need as low as N100k to set up a mini business.
The beneficiaries of the grants didn’t complain. The people who needed the support received it.
You don’t have to like the government. You don’t even have to agree with their policy. But deliberately stripping a statement of its context just to manufacture outrage is very dishonest.
Historic.
The Nigerian Senate has just passed the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (Alteration) State Police Bill, 2026.
All 26 clauses adopted.
- more than Two Decades after pushing for Police decentralisation as Govenor of Lagos State
- Five Years, Seven Months since @officialABAT made a strong case for the establishment of State Police at the Ajibola Ajimobi Roundtable in Ibadan saying, “The time for state police has come… in fact, it is overdue”
- Four Month after President Tinubu told Governors during Iftar Dinner: “What I promised Nigerians will not be postponed… we will establish State police to curb insecurity”
🚨BREAKING: Claude has a new feature called Council.
It turns Claude into 5 AI advisors that argue it out before handing you one final answer.
Here is how to SET it up, and 5 prompts to try it👇
"Dr Abati you were in government when Sanusi Lamido was screaming that any government that succeeds Goodluck Jonathan will face economic headwinds because of subsidy. By 2014, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, said that Nigeria was broke... If we had removed subsidy 10, 12 years ago, we wouldn't be where we are today." — Political Scientist, Obafemi George
JUST IN: Scientists say AI has decoded communication patterns in mice, dolphins, apes, birds, whales, & cuttlefish — could eventually lead to humans communicating directly with animals.
Everything I am doing today is to make plenty of money so I can invest heavily in medical research, especially in Africa.
The present system is not right. Big Pharma and some leaders prefer to manage sickness for profit instead of curing people completely. Life already has too many problems, no one should be suffering over small medical issues that science can solve.
I hope I am able to do this in the nearest future. #MedicalResearch #EndSuffering
