ILLEGAL MINING CASUALTY, TUNJI-OJO @BTOOFFICIAL LIVE IN NIGER.
All Minning Activities in Niger state have been suspended; legal or illegal and there is collaboration between the state and federal to subject all the mining sites into tests~ Gov Umar Bago while addressing the Hon. Minister of interior, Hon. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo.
A surge of energy and national pride filled the Banquet Hall of the State House in Abuja today as Nigeria marked the 8th National Day of Identity. I was deeply moved by the powerful current of shared purpose and national determination that electrified the atmosphere around us.
The event organised by the National Identity Management Commission,(NIMC) under the Ministry of Interior, with the theme: Nigeria’s Digital Public Ecosystem: Powering Africa’s Digital Economy, was more than a celebration of a date. But a clear affirmation that identity sits at the very core of our sovereignty, our security, and our shared prosperity as the largest Black nation on earth.
In my address, I emphasised that trusted identity is the bridge between the state and the citizen. It unlocks economic opportunity, strengthens national security, and guarantees genuine social inclusion. Without verified identity, millions remain locked out of the formal economy. With it, digital commerce thrives, public services reach those who need them most, and the state can serve with precision and dignity.
Under the visionary leadership of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, Nigeria has taken a decisive leap with the enactment of the National Identity Management Commission Act, 2026. This landmark legislation provides a secure, modern legal foundation for our Digital Public Infrastructure. It signals to the world that Nigeria is building on structural trust, and it reassures every citizen that their personal data is a protected national asset.
To every Nigerian yet to enrol for a National Identification Number: the time is now. To those already registered, guard your credentials with care. Your identity is your digital footprint. Value it. Protect it. Use it responsibly.
This National Day of Identity reminds us of a simple, powerful truth that every Nigerian matters, every Nigerian deserves recognition, and every citizen must be included and protected. With President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda guiding us, we are building a Nigeria where identity powers opportunity, security, and dignity for all.
@enibe_richard@kayode_william You're very dumb. You're saying that government should protect the local traders that are importing goods from china, government can only protect local manufacturers not a local trader making 100 to 200% profit per item and making inflation skyrocket
@bfemo9@Armylucifer001 You as a private citizen, can arrest a police, soliders or anybody if they commit a criminal offence according to our constitution
From disruption to stability. From barriers to opportunity. From promises to progress.
Under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, Nigeria’s education sector is witnessing a new chapter — stronger support for students, expanded access to tertiary education, NELFUND’s interest-free student loans, improved scholarships, teacher development, skills-focused learning, and renewed investment in the education system.
This is more than policy. It is an investment in the future of Nigeria.
Promises made! Progress delivered! Renewed Hope in education!
@sowore It seems you don't understand inflation. Within 6 months, current 50k will have strong purchasing power than ur 500k. We don't need salary increases; what we need is a strong naira, where 1,000 naira can feed a family.
@Cpthemonarch1@idrisyunus126@Pressman2040 School isn't a scam. As a private citizen, you can arrest a lawbreaker when they commit an offense. The military and paramilitary organizations can arrest you when you commit a crime, even if that crime isn't directly in line with their core mandate.
