NIGERIA MUST GO BACK TO TRUE REGIONAL GOVERNMENT.

Let every region bear the consequences of its own decisions.

Today, federalism is protecting the foolishness, incompetence, and bad choices of many states and regions.

In the First Republic (1960–1966), Nigeria had powerful regions.

The Northern, Western, and Eastern Regions competed fiercely.

The Western Region built Africa's first television station in 1959, introduced free primary education, and developed infrastructure.

The Eastern Region invested heavily in industry and commerce.

The Northern Region pursued its own agricultural and educational priorities.

Then military rule centralized power.

Today, Abuja collects most national revenue and shares monthly allocations to states.

According to the Federation Account Allocation Committee (FAAC), many states generate less than 20% of their budgets internally and depend almost entirely on federal allocations for survival.

This system rewards failure.

A governor can destroy agriculture, education, security, and economic development in his state...

And still receive federal allocation every month.

A Governor can pamper terrorists and still receive support from the federal government.

Even more disturbing is how some regions repeatedly support policies that many Nigerians consider dangerous.

Imagine terrorists killing soldiers, farmers, women, and children, and then being "rehabilitated" and reintegrated into society?

The conflict caused by Boko Haram alone has reportedly killed over 35,000 people directly.

And displaced more than 2 million Nigerians according to international estimates.

What exactly is the logic behind welcoming killers back into communities.

While victims struggle to rebuild their lives?

Under true regional government, every region would have greater responsibility for its security, economy, education, and development.

If a region chooses excellent policies, it enjoys the benefits.

If a region chooses disastrous policies, it bears the consequences.

Competition creates progress.

Dependency creates stagnation.

The United States, Germany, Canada, and Switzerland all operate systems where subnational governments have significant powers and responsibilities.

Why should hardworking regions be forced to subsidize incompetence forever?

Nigeria does not have a resource problem.

Nigeria has an accountability problem.

Until regions are made responsible for the outcomes of their own decisions, many leaders will continue spending other people's money while blaming Abuja for everything.

Maybe it is time to ask the difficult question:

Is excessive centralization helping Nigeria grow, or is it protecting failure?

What's your view?

Remember: The issue of reintegrating former insurgents is highly debated.

Supporters argue it can reduce violence and encourage defections; critics argue it can undermine justice for victims.

What do you think, because me e be like say ah no even understand again 😂.

❗️It's been two days since Noeline Isimbi Narubega (Lexi Luv) went public, yet authorities still have no answer. She says she was trafficked to Finland through false promises, reported it to @RIB_Rw , and got silence.

Instead of investigating, many are attacking her for being an adult performer. Since when does a woman's profession cancel her right to justice❓

#Noeline grew up in poverty, lived on the streets, lacked opportunities, and fought to survive. Her story exposes a deeper reality,In #Rwanda, justice often depends on who you know, where you come from, and whether your case serves those in power.

The fact that so many Rwandans now turn to #SocialMedia hoping to go viral before authorities pay attention is itself evidence of a failing system. Citizens should not need public outrage to access justice.

Rwanda sells the world a brand of zero corruption and #WomenEmpowerment. Yet ordinary women struggle to be heard while institutions stay silent.

If #Noeline lied, investigate. If she told the truth, prosecute. But silence only protects abusers and exposes selective justice.

This lady has been very consistent in her content of exposing Nigerians who sells fraudulently in different market to fellow Nigerians by cheating them.....

If I check the comment session after a while, I won't be surprised to see some Nigerians defending the fraud committed against other Nigerians anyway....

[Ayodele Lawal Adio @iamayolawal]

For too long in Eti Osa 2, the poor and working class have sacrificed ancestral lands, houses and schools to give way for the wealthy to build luxury apartments and vanity projects.

This has to stop.

We must collectively pursue a housing policy that is inclusive, not exclusionary.

We must work hard to close the gap on inequality and give the common man a fighting chance.

Does a person's profession make them less human or less deserving of rights? Human rights are universal, they are not rewards for conformity or popularity. Even those accused or convicted of crimes are entitled to dignity, justice, and due process.

If a person's choices are not a crime where they work, no authority should strip them of their rights based on stigma, moral judgment, or abuse of power. The role of the law is to protect rights equally, not selectively.

Rather than dismissing her because of who she is, we should listen and examine whether those rights have been denied. This is not about approving her choices; it is about defending a principle: every human being deserves equal dignity, protection, and justice. Rights belong to everyone or they belong to no one.

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.

Lagos developers are really serious about building entire new districts across the lagoon and connecting them with link bridges. This is yet another very ambitious project.

A lot of you need to travel around Southwest to see the beauty in Yoruba land.

Your favorite influencer came to Ilorin and somehow his tongue has been tied.
He couldn’t believe how a city could be so peaceful, neat and serene.

The reason is, we didn’t give so much freedom to the Ibos.

[The Yoruba Times @TheYorubaTimes]

Igbos Now Claim to Be Original Settlers of Ile-Ife – False Narrative Embedded in South East School Curriculum

The Igbo have now moved beyond their claim of being Jews from Israel. The latest revisionist history emerging from the South East alleges that Igbos are the original settlers of Ile-Ife, the cradle of Yoruba civilisation.

What is more shocking is that this false narrative has reportedly been incorporated into secondary school educational materials in the South East. If true, this means a new generation of Igbo children is being taught a version of history that directly contradicts centuries of Yoruba tradition, oral history, and documented evidence.

This is no longer just an online debate. It is now a systematic attempt to rewrite the origin story of the Yoruba people.

The claim that Igbos are the original settlers of Ife is not supported by any credible historical evidence. Ile-Ife has always been recognised as the spiritual and ancestral home of the Yoruba, founded by Oduduwa. Yoruba traditional institutions, from the Ooni of Ife to the various Obas across the South-West, have consistently upheld this history.

This revisionism has now crossed a dangerous line. When a people are so consumed by the need to claim ownership of another's history, it is no longer about pride. It is about erasure.

The Yoruba cannot afford to ignore this. If the South East is teaching children that Ife belongs to the Igbo, then the battle for historical truth has moved from the internet to the classroom.

The Federal Government and the Ministry of Education must investigate this matter urgently. History cannot be rewritten to satisfy the ambitions of any ethnic group.

Yoruba people must also wake up. If we do not document and teach our own history, others will write it for us. And they will write themselves as the heroes.

BREAKING: TINUBU APPROVED N7.5B RESEARCH GRANTS FOR 174 PROJECTS. THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO HEAR.

The federal government via the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund) has approved N7.5 billion research grants for 174 projects as part of efforts to strengthen research and innovation in tertiary institutions.

According to TETFund, the grants range from N13.6m to N49.97m each for the researchers, and cover several priority areas, including health and social welfare, agriculture, science and engineering, power and energy, clean energy, defence technology and security studies, among others.

Beneficiary universities include:

Federal University of Technology, Minna - 18 grants.

Federal University of Technology, Owerri - 11 grants
Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria - 10 grants
University of Ilorin - 8 grants
Bayero University, Kano - 7 grants
Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka - 7 grants
University of Jos - 6 grants
University of Ibadan - 5 grants
University of Lagos - 5 grants
Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto - 5 grants

TETFund, in its statement, also disclosed that newly established federal universities, state-owned institutions, polytechnics, and colleges of education also featured among successful beneficiaries.

New federal universities:

Federal University of Applied Sciences, Kachia, Kaduna State
Federal University of Environment and Technology, Koroma/Saakpenwa, Rivers State
Federal University of Technology and Environmental Sciences, Iyin Ekiti

State-owned institutions:

Enugu State University of Science and Technology, Ekiti State University

The research-driven innovation would help create new products and services, improve productivity, and contribute to national prosperity.

And I hope there is an organization that monitors to see that they're using the money for the intended purposes?

Because most times Money enters into private bank accounts or diverted into different things.
