"Malami came up with the assets forfeiture law as AGF & pushed for Buhari to sign it but today, hes a victim of same law. That is definitely Karma."- B.K Otitoju, TVC boss.
No sacred cows under @officialABAT as he fights corruption in a systemic & ruthless fashion.
Peter Obi stylishly making excuses for his online urchins that has been insulting Isaac. He shifted the blame to the opposition and codedly told Isaac Fayose that he should accept his wrong by playing and praying with Seyi Tinubu (a leader must accept criticism).
Only a smart ear would hear all of these.
Isaac Fayose lost his wife, Obi didn’t even text nor call him. But the moment the Agulu fraud heard that the Yoruba man will no longer donation money and offer his properties for campaign, he quickly ran to his house.
Obi just reactivated Isaac’s mumu button.

I was in exile with President Tinubu for over 12 years, and I was with him during his time as Governor of Lagos State. I know his thinking, and he has demonstrated to Nigerians that you don't have to be in his party for him to work with you. If you have the capacity and energy, he'll work with you.
That's why I'm proud of my former student, the one and only Nyesom Wike, who belongs to the PDP but became minister.
Today, I can stand here and say he's the best-performing minister in Nigeria.

"...I watched that pass that Messi made...He was well guarded by a great player and then he moved to the right, and the other player was just standing there...He kicked it. It was within, I would say, a quarter of an inch of being perfect. And that was the end of the game. It was brilliant. These great players, they seem to do that over and over again. They're just born with something extra... You have a great player in England who I played golf with, you know that, right? Harry Kane who's been fantastic. They perhaps made a mistake when they made him a defensive player...They took the lead and they took their best player and then put him on defense..." - Donald Trump @realDonaldTrump, US President

BREAKING: FCT Minister Nyesom Wike wins again as the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja dismisses the suit filed by the Makinde-backed Turaki PDP faction, seeking to compel INEC to recognise its faction.
The court affirmed Mohammed Abdulrahman and Samuel Anyanwu as the PDP National Chairman and Secretary, respectively, and granted all applications by six Wike allies for joinder, while striking out the PDP from the suit filed by the Makinde-backed Turaki faction.
The Makinde-backed Turaki faction had filed a suit seeking an order to compel INEC to recognise its faction on the commission's official website.
However, the faction of the party aligned with FCT Minister Nyesom Wike approached the court to challenge its jurisdiction to entertain the case. They maintained that the court lacked the requisite jurisdiction to grant the prayers of the plaintiffs, who it said lacked the locus standi (legal right) to institute the action.
PDP National Chairman Mohammed Abdulrahman and five others then filed to be joined in the suit as the authentic PDP and moved to withdraw the case on the grounds that it was not filed by the party.
The court granted the applications of PDP National Chairman Mohammed Abdulrahman, PDP National Secretary Samuel Anyanwu, PDP National Legal Adviser Adeyemi Ajibade, Imo PDP Chairman Hon. Austin Nwachukwu, George Turnah, and Abraham Amah to be joined in the case.
The court also upheld Adeyemi Ajibade as the authentic legal adviser of the PDP and ruled that he did not authorize the person claiming to be the party’s BoT Chairman (Adolphus Wabara), to file the suit on behalf of the party.
Justice Ibrahim, while delivering judgment, held that the suit amounted to an abuse of court process, stating that the plaintiffs attempted to use the suit to resurrect issues already decided by various courts.
With today's judgment, all candidates, including former President Jonathan, who got nomination forms under the Makinde-backed Turaki faction of the PDP, will remain unrecognised by INEC.
I need the corpse of my daughter to take her for burial. I don't want an autopsy. My daughter's body should be released now.

Emefiele: Supreme Court Affirms Final Forfeiture of Properties, $2 Million, Share Certificates to Government
The Supreme Court on Friday, July 17, 2026 affirmed the final forfeiture of seven landed properties, the sum of $2,045,000 (Two Million, Forty-Five Thousand United States Dollars) and share certificates linked to a former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele, to the Federal Government of Nigeria.
In a unanimous judgment delivered by a five-member panel of the apex court led by Justice Ibrahim Mohammed Saulawa, the court set aside the judgment of the Court of Appeal and affirmed the decision of the Federal High Court, Lagos, which had ordered the final forfeiture of the assets on the grounds that they were reasonably suspected to have been acquired with proceeds of unlawful activities.
Following the final forfeiture order made by the Federal High Court, Emefiele challenged the decision before the Court of Appeal, which reversed the judgment of the trial court.
Dissatisfied with the appellate court's decision, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, approached the Supreme Court, which has now restored and affirmed the judgment of the Federal High Court.
The forfeited properties are:
A fully detached duplex of identical structures situated at No. 17B Hakeem Odumosu Street, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos;
An undeveloped parcel of land measuring 1,919.592 square metres, covered by Survey Plan No. DS/LS/340, situated at Oyinkan Abayomi Drive (formerly Queens Drive), Ikoyi, Lagos;
A bungalow situated at No. 65A Oyinkan Abayomi Drive (formerly Queens Drive), Ikoyi, Lagos;
A four-bedroom duplex situated at 12A Probyn Road, Ikoyi, Lagos;
An industrial complex under construction on 22 plots of land in Agbor, Delta State;
Eight units of undetached apartments on a plot measuring 2,457.60 square metres, situated at No. 8A Adekunle Lawal Road, Ikoyi, Lagos;
A full duplex together with all its appurtenances on a plot measuring 2,217.87 square metres, situated at 2A Bank Road, Ikoyi, Lagos.
The apex court also ordered the forfeiture of $2,045,000 (Two Million, Forty-Five Thousand United States Dollars) and share certificates of Queensdorf Global Fund Limited to the Federal Government.
The final forfeiture order was originally granted on November 1, 2024, by Justice D.I. Dipeolu of the Federal High Court sitting in Lagos in Suit No. FHC/L/MISC/500/24, following an application filed by the EFCC through its counsel, Director, Public Prosecution, Rotimi Oyedepo, SAN, pursuant to Section 17 of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud Related Offences Act, 2006, and Section 44(2)(b) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended).
The application, brought as an action in rem, sought the final forfeiture of properties reasonably suspected to have been acquired with proceeds of unlawful activities. The application for the forfeiture was supported by an affidavit deposed to by David Jayeoba, an investigating officer with the EFCC, who averred that investigations revealed that the assets were reasonably suspected to have been acquired with proceeds of unlawful activities.
In its originating motion, the Commission urged the court to grant the final forfeiture under the provisions of Section 17 of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud Related Offences Act, 2006, contending that the assets were liable to forfeiture because they were reasonably suspected to have been acquired through unlawful means.
With the Supreme Court's unanimous decision affirming the judgment of the Federal High Court, the final forfeiture of the seven landed properties, the $2.045 million and the share certificates to the Federal Government of Nigeria has now been conclusively upheld.

Seyi removed his cap and knelt down to greet me. Has Obi come to greet me since I’ve been campaigning for him, has Obi come to say thank you?
If I like I might start campaigning for Tinubu because you guys (Obedients) are not even worth it.
I am a Yoruba man and I love Tinubu with all my heart and I love Seyi, he’s a good guy.

He can talk on TV stations, moving from one TV station to the other as much as he likes, but he is not known to have any electoral value.
