BREAKING: The Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered the final forfeiture of 48 out of 57 properties worth N212 billion linked to the former Attorney-General of the Federation Abubakar Malami.
Judge Joyce Abdulmalik granted the final forfeiture application filed by the EFCC and dismissed several objections filed by Mr Malami, his family members, and some companies claiming ownership of the properties, saying they all lacked merit.
She held that the issue before the court was not “who owns the property, but how legitimate are the funds used to acquire the properties.”
The properties to be forfeited span Abuja, Kebbi, Kano, and Kaduna states and include luxury hotels, duplexes, plazas, warehouses, shopping units and residential estates acquired over several years.

Wait till you see what we found.
• ₦3.5bn for a Technical & Vocational Training College in Kaduna.
• ₦1.4bn for road construction in Ogun.
• ₦700m for dental X-ray machines and dental chairs in Ekiti.
All under the National Commission for Almajiri and Out-of-School Children Education.
And this wasn't a one-off.
While analysing the 2026 budget, we found 11,122 constituency projects worth ₦6.93 trillion that blur agency mandates, making it harder for Nigerians to follow the money and hold the right institutions accountable.
We unpacked what this means for the credibility of the 2026 budget in our Federal Government Approved Budget Analysis.

Nigerians should be grateful to Matthew Adeyemi Adeniyi, whichever way this scandal ends up.
If @aonanuga1956's elaborate and utterly implausible treatise on the matter is to be believed, Adeyemi has proved what many of us have alleged since 2015 - that the @OfficialAPCNg is a collection of supremely incompetent and greedy criminals.
He fooled the Federal Secretariat management team into allocating offices to his "fake" agency, and thus proved that they are at the very least utterly incompetent and possibly irredeemably corrupt.
He fooled the @cenbank, @DrYemiCardoso et al, into opening CBN accounts for his agency, thus proving that the CBN under Cardoso has turned into a cesspit of an insane level of incompetence and again, possibly fetid corruption.
He fooled the President Tinubu and his Minister of Finance into including his "fake" agency in the 2026 budget, this proving their lack of diligence and lack of dedication to their jobs.
He fooled the National Assembly, led by @SenGodswill, into passing that budget, with an actual financial allocation of billions of ₦₦₦ for his "fake" agency, thus proving that the National Assembly of the @OfficialAPCNg is nothing but a rubber stamp and possibly deeply corrupt.
If Adeyemi is right, and the agency really exists and was in fact created by the Presidency, included in the budget and given an allocation from taxpayer funds, he has proved that the @OfficialAPCNg government of @officialABAT is a cesspit of metastasised grand larceny, greed, corruption, avarice, and just plain looting - which is a position many of us have long held, since before Tinubu acquired the Presidency.
As resilient as Nigeria has proved to be, I do not think Nigeria will survive this stratospheric level of conjoined corruption and incompetence.

THROWBACK VIDEO: Adeniyi Adeyemi, convener of ‘presidential promotion council’, hosted pre-world investment summit dinner in Abuja with diplomats, politicians and security officials in attendance
-Account in CBN✅
-300+ staff✅
-Office at Federal Secretariat✅
-Budget Office recognition✅
-NASS(Senate & HoR)recognition✅
-EFCC Collaboration✅
-Hosting Foreign investors✅
-Assigned Police orderly✅
-Federation Head of Service recognition✅
If he manages to fool all the above, maybe we've got the most clueless and unintelligent people leading us.
There's no way to spin this and not make an absolute fool of yourself, it's embarrassing to even say he did this unchallenged. #GbajaGate
I just learned about a concept, I can't stop thinking about.
The Four Burner Theory.
It destroyed Elon Musk's first marriage.
It explains why Bezos is jacked but divorced.
And why Zuckerberg has no real friends.
Once you understand it, your life will never be same:🧵
Trigger warning:
Malama Ummulkhairi, an innocent teacher in Maraban Jos, Kaduna, was falsely accused of child theft and kidnapping- a crime she never did.
She was taken into police custody but later on, the same policemen handed her over to a waiting impatient mob of bloodthirsty barbaric lunatics, who brutally murdered her and burnt her alive.
The Police themselves later confirmed all those accusations were false—she was innocent. Malama was a mother of 5kids. What kind of madness is this?
An innocent woman falsely accused of a crime she never committed, who was safe in police custody, was handed over by the same Nigerian police to a gang of ravaging savages who slaughtered her.
This just happened 7days ago.
What kind of a lawless country is this?
Why does human life hold no value here?
JUSTICE FOR UMMUKHAIRI
The Kaduna State Commissioner of Police went on the Berekete Family show to boldly deny that the DPO released Ummukhairi to the bloodthirsty mob that brutally murdered her.
But lies cannot erase the truth
Look at this video evidence. It clearly captures the exact moment the DPO escorted her out and handed her directly over to her killers. He delivered her straight to her death!
We are urgently calling on the Kaduna State Government and the Federal Government of Nigeria to act immediately. This DPO must not go free! Bring him to justice now

PiggyVest
Let me break down PiggyVest mathematically so you understand exactly what happens to your money in each feature, using their current June 2026 rates.
PiggyBank and Target Savings pay up to 16% annually, calculated daily and paid monthly. Put N1,000,000 in for one year and you earn N160,000, ending with N1,160,000. Simple, disciplined, automated.
Flex Naira is your liquid wallet, paying 12% annually but only if you stay under 4 withdrawals monthly. Same N1,000,000 earns N120,000 in a year while remaining fully accessible.
SafeLock is where it gets interesting. Lock N1,000,000 for one year at 18.5% and PiggyVest pays you the entire N185,000 interest upfront the moment you lock the funds, not at maturity. Your principal stays locked but you already have N185,000 sitting in your Flex Naira wallet to spend or reinvest immediately.
Lock for over two years and the rate jumps to 21% per annum. That same N1,000,000 compounds to N1,464,100, meaning N464,100 in pure interest.
Now here is the smart move serious users do. Lock your money in SafeLock, collect that upfront interest immediately, then drop that interest into Flex Naira to keep earning 12% while your principal is still locked elsewhere. You are earning twice on the same capital simultaneously.
PiggyVest is not just an app. It is a discipline engine. The features exist to stop you from touching money you cannot afford to spend, while still making that same money work in the background.
Pick the feature based on your need. Discipline, lock it in SafeLock. Liquidity, use Flex Naira. Consistency, use PiggyBank.

Owa-Onire: A Ghost Town and One Man Left Behind
*“Everyone ran. Lekan stayed. Now he’s the only name left to answer when the wind calls Owa-Onire.”*
When the security team of 100 men from the drone unit, MOPOL, and the Anti-Kidnapping Squad rolled into Owa-Onire today, they found nothing but silence. No markets, no voices, no children. Just empty compounds, a locked mosque, a quiet church, and one man standing in the middle of it all.
The operation is part of the Inspector General of Police’s push to screen the Kwara South forest belts. Ifelodun, Isin, Oke-Ero, Ekiti LGAs — troops are moving through all of them. But Owa-Onire stopped them cold. A town wiped clean.
The only person left is Lekan, a prince of the town. He calls himself “the landlord” now, and the title fits. The big mansion, the abandoned houses, the mosque, the church — all of it belongs to the crickets and to him.
He didn’t stay out of courage. He stayed because “Bororo’s War” took everyone else. It didn’t start with one attack. Bandits came and came again. Kidnappings became routine. Then they took the monarch himself and held him in the forest for months until a ransom was paid. After that, the people couldn’t take it anymore. They locked their doors and left. Some went to Okeonigbin. Most just disappeared into somewhere safer.
Owa-Onire isn’t alone. At least 28 communities in Ifelodun LGA are deserted. The same fate has swallowed Oro-Ago, Omugo, Ahun, Oke-Oyan, Owa-Kajola, Owa-Onire, and Oba in Isin LGA. Residents say over 23 villages have been overrun by suspected bandits. Ancestral homes stand empty. Farms rot. Towns become names on a map with no one to say them.
Lekan eats from his farm. That’s how he survives. There’s nowhere to buy food here, nowhere to buy anything. He’s alone with his land and the memory of a town that used to be alive.
The team leader handed him ₦10,000. Lekan took it quietly. He said he’d go to Okeonigbin to buy foodstuffs — the nearest place that still has a market.
He also told them people came into the community last night. He doesn’t know who they were or what they took. He just knows he heard them, and in the morning, nothing had changed. He was still alone.
Visibly disturbed by what they saw, the senior officers from Abuja and Lagos said no Nigerian community should be reduced to this. They described Owa-Onire’s abandonment as a failure that demands immediate action, and pledged to push for sustained security presence and concrete measures that will allow displaced residents to return home without fear.

The battery health you see in some fairly used iPhones is not always real.
So, yes, there’s actually a laptop app that can help you check whether an iPhone is genuine and whether some parts have been tampered with.
Let me tell you this:
Some vendors artificially boost the battery health of iPhones to deceive buyers.
A phone that’s originally at 79% battery health can be boosted up to 100%, or even 94% to make it believable.
As the buyer, you think you’re getting a clean phone with strong battery life. But a few days later, the battery health starts dropping drastically.
That’s where an app called 3uTools comes in for those who have laptops.
– Go to www. 3u .com on your laptop
– Download and install the app
– Launch it and connect your iPhone using a cable
The app will display key details about your phone, including the real battery health.
So, if the battery health in your iPhone's settings and the one on the 3uTools app are clearly different, you already know there's a problem.
You can also tap “Verification Report” to check whether parts like the battery, screen, or camera have been replaced.
.....
You'll definitely not be able to do all these at the vendor's shop. You'll do it at home. Your vendor should normally give you a warranty of some days or weeks.
Stay sharp, guys! 🪒
I also plan to share tips on how to know if an iPhone is truly brand new. I'll do that later.
