@HAHayatu Caveat: Professor Ngozi Okonjo Iweala is from Delta State, she's only married to an Igbos man from Abia State. Please oo we don't want another Ifeanyi Okowa happenstance.

@Mohayatudeen This tweet by you will further confirm what many in the party believe that you were planted in the ADC to distabilize it.

@benmurraybruce @MobilePunch Your tweet ended up not making sense at all

There was a time when we waited eagerly for Supreme Court judgments because of the sound legal reasoning, intellectual depth, and moral authority they carried. Today, we sit anxiously, not with confidence, but with suspicion that politics may have entered the courtroom. It is heartbreaking to witness this shift and the steady erosion of public trust in the judiciary.

This happened on the 2nd of April 2026

The Court of Appeal in Abuja on Thursday dismissed an appeal by the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) challenging a judgement of the Federal High Court restraining it from imposing fines on broadcast stations.
The appellate court upheld the earlier ruling which set aside fines imposed by the commission on 45 stations in 2019 for alleged breaches of the Nigeria Broadcasting Code.
According to a statement by Idowu Adewale, communications officer, Media Rights Agenda (MRA), the court’s panel ruled unanimously “that the NBC’s appeal lacked merit and dismissed it.”
The presiding justice, Oyejoju Oyebiola Oyewumi, upheld the argument of MRA’s lawyer, Ezenwa Anumnu, that having failed to challenge the suit at the Federal High Court, the NBC could not now challenge it at the Court of Appeal.”
PREMIUM TIMES reported that the Federal High Court in Abuja on 10 May 2023 gave an order of perpetual injunction restraining NBC from imposing the fines henceforth on broadcast stations in the country.
The judge, James Omotosho, in a judgement, also set aside the N500,000 fines imposed on the 45 broadcast stations.
The judge ruled that fines are sanctions imposed on a person who has been found guilty of a criminal offence.
Mr Omotosho added that under the law in Nigeria, only courts of law are empowered to impose sanctions for criminal offences.
He noted that the commission’s action violated the Nigerian constitution because NBC “is neither a court nor a judicial tribunal to make pronouncements on the guilt of broadcast stations notwithstanding what the NBC Code says.”
Meanwhile, In July that year, NBC also filed a motion seeking that the judge set aside the judgement on the grounds that the court lacked jurisdiction and made the decision in ignorance of relevant facts.
However, on 23 November 2023, the judge dismissed the motion.
According to MRA, the judge described the motion “as futile and an afterthought, as available evidence showed that the Commission was served with the court’s processes but chose not to appear before the court to defend the suit.”
Displeased with the Federal High Court judgement, NBC proceeded to the Court of Appeal.
The commission asked the appellate court to overturn the 10 May 2023 judgement.
“At the hearing of the appeal on 4 February 2026, Mr Victor Ogude (SAN), leading Mr Kehinde Wilkey on behalf of the NBC, formally adopted his brief of argument and advanced additional submissions, after which Mr Ezenwa Anumnu, representing MRA, did the same,” theMRA statement said.

Akpabio has inadvertently confirmed that INEC Chairman personally made that tweet.

[Channels Television @channelstv]

He didn't say, 'Victory is sure for APC or PDP'; He just said, 'Victory is sure.'

— Godswill Akpabio, Senate President, reacts to the pro-APC X post allegedly linked to INEC Chairman, Joash Amupitan.

[Great Oracle Extraordinary & Plenipotentiary. @AbdulMahmud01]

It can't be genuine, neither is it judicious. The liberty of a citizen is at stake here.
What does it take to write a mere ruling on bail?
Let's stop defending useless judicial indiscretions!

This is the official memo from INEC directing all Resident Electoral Commissioners to suspend the voter revalidation exercise, pending the outcome of the virtual meeting scheduled for April 9.

This is first a win for the Nigerian people who didn’t keep quiet. Our voices are important in shaping what our institutions do and don’t do.

Secondly, we should not keep quiet, until INEC does the right thing in the forthcoming general elections. Let’s keep watch on whatever will be the outcome of their meeting on the 9th.

Thirdly, let’s call out INEC to reinstall the names of David Mark and other key leaders of the ADC on their website.

Nigeria is our country and we will fight for it however we can.

@elrufai Likewise any person that sanctions the mass murder of fellow human beings & promote hate speech in social media is not fit to be a governor of a state in Nigeria. With the above negative qualities, Nasir is not qualify to decide on the choice of Nigeria VP.

[Mr philip @ukephilip]

@elrufai In Africa, Bigotry is synonymous with Nasir El rufai and any demonic attempt to transfer it to a decent man like @petergregoryobi fa fa fa fowl, we wholeheartedly reject it & resend it back to the midget who sent it. Shameless midget.

[Mr philip @ukephilip]

@elrufai Thank God the buharist have dropped the anti corruption slogan & shifted to tribalism. This miggy is the leader in everything he accuses others. As chairman of Fidelity bank, majority of d staff are from d north. So this miggy should go & hang himself in d bush.
