“Fåk€ news is terrible.”
— Man laments after school children were seen running back home this morning following rumors that suspected Fulani kidn@ppers had invaded Ihe-Obukpa community in Nsukka, Enugu State.
A notorious Islamic Fulani killer kidnapper, allegedly arrested by the Nigerian Police, was spotted live on TikTok.
Did the police release him as a ‘repentant terrorist’ or was he quietly bailed and allowed to walk free?
When I placed the Renewed Hope Agenda before Nigerians, I did not speak of housing in vague terms. I gave my word that this administration would work to make decent homes affordable again, and that a hardworking family, after years of paying rent, would finally have a path to a house of its own.
Let me account for that promise plainly, by juxtaposing what we pledged beside what we have actually achieved.

Seems Mr. @PeterObi has now abandoned the trouble he’s facing within the NDC and the horrible update from his beloved Indonesia about their dwindling economy to quickly distract us with misinformation again but we will not watch while this goes uncorrected.
For the umpteenth time, Nigeria’s obvious debt portfolio increase over the past three years under the administration of President Tinubu is not a function of new borrowings rather; vast majority of them are mathematical impacts of currency devaluation which you also promised to implement during your campaigns.
In addition, this administration inherited a whopping ways and means debt of around 20trillion which was securitized to ensure swift repayment by the nation. This makes up a significant portion of the debts Mr Obi is claiming the administration has accumulated within three years.
Also, Nigeria’s public debt includes loans taken by subnationals over the years.
Since Mr Peter Obi has chosen to play the pedestrian game with our economy, let me break it down for him at that level; If tomorrow, President Tinubu decides to fix the Naira against the dollar at N500/$ and the value of our debts in Naira drops drastically, will Mr @peterobi unequivocally agree that the President has repaid all of our debts?
Yes, governments at all levels across the world take loans to accelerate their development and Nigeria is not an exemption in this case.
However, a presidential candidate believing that an administration with less than trillion N100trillion total budget in the last two budget cycles have borrowed almost N200 trillion is absolutely ridiculous.
Lastly, Nigeria’s debt in dollar value has remained relatively stable ranging from $108bn in 2023 to $109bn in 2026. This tells the true story of the country’s debt levels.
In contrast, Nigeria’s net external reserves has grown from $3bn in 2023 to around $40bn in 2026. I hope Mr Obi will do well to convert these to Naira same way he has done with our debts to show his audience how much we have grown in just three years.
We will continue to set the records straight at every given opportunity while allowing Mr President to focus on delivering his mandate to the good people of Nigeria.
My boss has taken full responsibility for the incident and has been on top of rescue efforts. At no point did we mention Seyi Makinde and unlike GEJ and the PDP in 2014, we never denied that the incident is a made up lie. Stop twisting history to justify your lack of humanity
