Every time a bottle, food pack, nylon bag, or any waste is thrown from a vehicle onto the road, it may seem insignificant. However, when thousands of people do the same, our streets become littered, drainage channels become blocked, and the environment suffers.
What you throw away today can contribute to:
Flooding caused by blocked drains and waterways.
Environmental pollution and unpleasant surroundings.
Health risks from disease-causing pests and contaminated water.
Increased government spending on waste evacuation and road maintenance.
A negative image of our beautiful city.
A clean Lagos is not the responsibility of government alone - it is a duty we all share. Dispose of your waste properly, keep a waste bag in your vehicle, and use designated waste bins.
What you do: Throw waste on the road.
What you cause: Pollution, flooding, and environmental degradation.
What you should do: Keep your waste until you find a proper bin.
Keep Lagos Clean. Protect the Environment. Save Lives.

Do you really think Peter Obi as president would have gotten the Nigeria tax act passed.?
Do you think Peter Obi as president would have gotten LGA autonomy ?.
Do you think Peter Obi as president would have started the process of fiscal federalism ( that is even if he is ideologically on the same page )?.
Do you think Peter Obi as president would have gotten state police bill over the line ?.
These bills required elite political maneuvering and clout, one that Peter struggles with.
That you are President doesn’t automatically confer the skills required for governing.
Worthy note is that this administration has assented to over 60 bills within 3 years.
OPERATION HADIN KAI FRUSTRATES COORDINATED TERRORIST ATTACKS, RESCUES CIVILIANS, DISRUPTS INSURGENT LOGISTICS NETWORKS
The Joint Task Force (North East), Operation HADIN KAI (OPHK), has continued to consolidate its operational dominance across the North-East, recording significant successes against Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorists through a series of well-coordinated offensive and security operations conducted between 11 and 12 June 2026. The operations resulted in the rescue of abducted civilians, arrest of suspected terrorist collaborators and logistics suppliers, recovery of arms and operational stores, as well as the decisive defeat of multiple terrorist attempts to undermine security within the theatre.
In a major humanitarian and operational success, troops of Sector 2, while conducting fighting and perimeter clearance patrols around the Amuda general area on 11 June 2026, rescued three abducted children identified as Ali Usman (15), Umar Ibrahim Abubakar (15), and Fatima Abubakar (12). Preliminary investigations revealed that the victims escaped from terrorist enclaves at SAHA and CHINENE in the Mandara Mountains following sustained military offensives that have continued to degrade and dislocate insurgent strongholds across the region. After profiling and documentation, the children were safely reunited with community leaders in Ngoshe. Similarly, on 12 June 2026, troops of Sector 3 swiftly responded to a terrorist kidnapping attempt along the Damasak–Gubio Main Supply Route and successfully rescued six civilians abandoned by fleeing terrorists following aggressive troop pursuit around the Kareto area.
In further demonstrations of operational effectiveness, troops of 68 Battalion at Mallam Fatori thwarted an attempted terrorist reconnaissance mission after successfully ambushing suspected ISWAP scouts and recovering an AK-47 rifle with a loaded magazine containing 31 rounds of ammunition. Concurrently, troops of Sector 3 operating at Check Point 61 intercepted eleven suspects travelling in two civilian vehicles under suspicious circumstances. Preliminary investigations linked the individuals to attempts at recovering vehicles belonging to known terrorist logistics collaborators previously sighted supporting insurgent activities around Ali Sheriffti. In a related operation, troops of Sector 2 at Mandaragirau arrested a suspected terrorist logistics courier, Malahi Liman Muhammad, along the Mandaragirau–Sabon Gari axis. Recovered items included large quantities of herbicides, blankets, salt, food supplies, mobile phones, and other materials suspected to be intended for terrorist sustenance and operational support. The suspects are currently undergoing further investigation.
Nnamdi Kanu is a convicted terrorist.
Nobody, especially @PeterObi who wants to be President should be defending or exonerating him.
He was convicted in Nigeria just like Simon Ekpa was convicted in Finland.
If Nigeria got it wrong, did Finland also get it wrong?
Say no to IPOB. Stop defending terrorists and terrorism!
Nigeria plans to raise $5 billion through a total return swap deal with the First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB), the United Arab Emirates' largest lender.
The complex derivative agreement allows Nigeria to access capital at a lower cost than traditional eurobonds by pledging local naira-denominated securities as collateral.
The loan facility spans 6 years, which includes annual rollover options and a 3-year mutual break clause.
The capital is intended to finance the 2026 budget deficit, fund infrastructure like roads and ports, and refinance more expensive existing debt.
No terrorist sympathiser or defender of fake drugs, drinks and beverages manufacturer will ever get an opportunity to govern Nigeria. Not today. Not tomorrow. Not in 2031. Never ever!
Masterminds of terrorism should not be getting 25 years jail time. They should be getting life imprisonment. Our laws need to be updated to fit and work for the current realities.
Mop them all 🔥 🔥 🔥
Operation Hadin Kai is delivering results. Terrorists neutralised, hostages rescued, weapons recovered, and communities protected.
Our gallant troops continue to make immense sacrifices to keep Nigeria safe. Let’s stand firmly behind them in prayer, support, and appreciation

OPERATION HADIN KAI RECORDS MAJOR SUCCESS AS HIGH-PROFILE ISWAP COMMANDERS SURRENDER UNDER SUSTAINED MILITARY PRESSURE
Operation HADIN KAI has recorded another significant success in the ongoing counter-terrorism campaign following the surrender of two high-profile Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) commanders to troops on 8 June 2026. The surrendered terrorists, identified as Ismail Mohammed and Abu Umar, are currently in military custody and undergoing appropriate profiling and debriefing procedures.
Preliminary assessments indicate that the two individuals occupied strategic positions within the terrorist hierarchy and operated within the Mangari axis of the Lake Chad region. One of the surrendered commanders, Ismail Mohammed was a close associate of senior ISWAP Leader Baa Shuwa and possessed extensive knowledge of the group’s command structure and activities. The second individual, Abu Umar, was widely known within the terrorist network as a skilled explosives specialist with responsibilities linked to the fabrication and maintenance of vehicle borne improvised explosive devices and other combat-support equipment used by the terrorists. Interrogation further revealed that another high profile terrorist, Mohammed Khalifa, a member the ISWAP Shurah Council was neutralised during the joint operations by OPHK.
The surrender of the two commanders represents a major setback to the terrorist organisation, particularly given their experience, influence and technical expertise acquired over several years within the insurgent network. Their decision to flee and surrender further underscores the effectiveness of sustained offensive operations by troops of Operation HADIN KAI, complemented by precision engagements conducted with the support of Allied Partners against terrorist enclaves across the Theatre. The combined pressure from these operations continues to degrade terrorist capabilities, weaken their operational networks, and compel increasing numbers of insurgents to surrender.
This development further demonstrates the growing desperation and declining morale within terrorist ranks as relentless military pressure continues to deny them freedom of action and safe havens. It also reinforces the effectiveness of ongoing efforts aimed at dismantling terrorist leadership structures and disrupting their operational capabilities. Operation HADIN KAI remains committed to maintaining relentless pressure on all terrorist elements. The military will continue to exploit all available opportunities to dismantle terrorist networks and restore lasting stability to affected communities.
