In the last 24hours, Amnesty Nigeria International has tweeted 15 times amongst others Yeye Twitter and Facebook Bandits on #LekkiTollGateProtest. Strangely, there's no single tweet on the killings of Northerner in Ibadan. Nothing explains this Media blackout than deep-seated hatred of the other.  This is shameful and disgraceful.

 Is there no state government in place? When we talk of Ruga or Ranching, people will say state governors are in charge because the FG does not have any land anywhere, but when it comes to conflict within the states, we'll be calling the FG out as if the states can not solve their security issues.  Did Ambode cry foul before dealing with the Badoo guys of Ikorodu? Did Ajimobi blame Buhari before he brought the security challenges of  Oyo state under control? All he did was to support the police with the necessary equipment and funds. The rest was history.  Let's call a spade a spade! ~Yinka Alada

 We Reject the Wanton Destruction of Lives, Property in Sasha Gov. Aminu Waziri Tambuwal (CFR, Mutawallen Sokoto) Governor of Sokoto Since Saturday morning when some groups of individuals halted traffic and movement of people across the various highways, asking passengers to identify their ethnic groups, I have been in constant touch with my Oyo State counterpart, Gov. Seyi Makinde on how best to halt the violence. We are all living witness to the bloodletting that has led to the loss of several lives  a couple of hours ago after a clash ensued when a cobbler was fatally stabbed by a cart pusher in Sasha market, Ibadan, Oyo State,  The unwarranted reprisal that followed has thus far degenerated into an ethnic conflict with a potential of snowballing into another fratricidal conflict if it is not quickly nipped in the bud. As a nation, we must find a quick solution to this wanton killing of one another amidst the ongoing National Challenge of insecurity. Also, distraught f...

 * VP Says: We must deal with criminals according to law & not an ethnic conflict  * Urges for peace between Northern traders and Southwest people  (Below are comments by the Vice President today in Lagos when reporters asked him about the situation in Ibadan. He had just paid a condolence visit to the Jakande family in Ilupeju.)  I have heard about the unfortunate mayhem and the tragic loss of lives at the Shasha market in the past few days.  Shasha market has been a melting pot for traders bringing foodstuff from the North to the Southwest for decades.  For decades traders from the North have done business with their brothers from the Southwest and they have lived in peace and even inter-married. Shasha is a place of unity.  So when a disagreement arises between individuals or a criminal act is committed by one against the other we must ensure that we see it for what it is,  a criminal act, which must be punished according to law. Not an eth...

Akeredolu distances self from online scams, vows to prosecute perpetrators The All Progressives Congress (APC) has raised an alarm over a purported national membership registration website on trending on social media. In a statement by its Acting National Publicity Secretary, Yekini Nabena, it said the website: apcregistration.com was unauthorized, describing it as a scam aimed at defrauding millions of its supporters in the country. It declared that the fake website was sponsored by one of the opposition political parties in its desperate plot to harvest APC’s members ahead of the 2019 general elections.

$1=N72 in 1999 when PDP got to power. They left it at N234. •50kg of rice was N800 in 1999. They left at 8,000/50kg. Nitel, Nepa, Nigerian Airways, NRC, Nigerian Shipping, NMT, OSTM, Ajaokuta steel, Nipost, & National Oil ...Dunlop, Nitex, Nascon, Dicon, Volkswagen, NEPA, Nigerchin, Michelin, Nichemtex and NIC were all alive in 1999. They killed and buried them all before leaving in 2015. The assets they stripped and shared amongst themselves. Think deep before you copy and paste online. Deep within your mind, you know your poverty started decades back. Buhari/Osinbajo government is not the genesis of your woes. theirs' is to fix the broken bones. And putting broken bones together comes with a lot of initial pains. Look at the kind of financial discipline Nigerians have now, Northern Nigerian almost lost it completely to insurgency but look at today. What's our treasury saying? We want to just enjoy without suffering the consequences of the idiot...

1) How many tithes and offerings are being dropped in churches and mosques these days? Please verify. 2) How many Pastors or Imams are still flying their private jets or buying new ones?  I am sure most of them can't even pay for the parking space. No more awuf money! 3) Call your bureau de change Mallam and ask how market? You would like to know how much has been laundered to Dubai recently. 4) Visit  Sheraton hotels or Transcorp on weekends. Wao! Where are the big boys? Where are the easy-going girls? No more market for easy money! 5) If you know any MDA, Head of agencies, check out whether their children are still in the UK or USA studying. The ghost workers are gone for good. 6) Go to NPA, the cargo section, how many Senators with waivers whose containers have arrived?  They will say,  oga you de joke?  Call Atiku about his INTEL,  am sure he will bang phone on you. 7)Take time to walk around, are you still seeing abandoned projects? Try to ...

I have read the recent transmissions by Senator Bukola Saraki directed at my Igbo tribe. I have deliberately kept mum on this as I had earlier resolved to speak less on Igbos as regards the 2019 Elections and 2023 Presidency having said quite a bit. However seeing as some of my brethren have swallowed the cheap bait, I will chip this in just to keep the reality before us, at least for posterity sake. Truth is bitter but it's still the best medicine. My people say; 'He who does not remember where the rain started beating him, will not remember where it stopped'. REWIND TO 2014. A new National Party was being conceived. Political Parties, political players, and Regions were being wooed to the new alliance. 'We' Igbos (read South East) vehemently refused to touch it even with a long pole. We packaged, sold to ourselves and bought the baseless propaganda that it was an Islamic alliance that would birth an "Islamic" and "Hausa" Party. Simply ...

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has again called on Dr Bukola Saraki to resign his position as the President of the Senate. In a statement on Wednesday by the party’s Acting National Publicity Secretary, Yekini Nabena, the APC claimed that the Senate President lacked the moral ground to retain the position after defecting to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). “We reiterate our call for the Senate President to resign from the position immediately as he no longer has the moral and legitimate ground to occupy that position as a member of the minority PDP. “Going by the popular axiom, the majority will have their way, but the minority will have their say,” the ruling party said. They also reacted to the  invasion of the National Assembly complex  in Abuja by security operatives who prevented lawmakers from entering the complex on Tuesday. The APC noted that while they have some contention with the leadership of the National Assembly as currently constituted, t...

Security reports indicates that DG DSS was used by saraki to block the entrance of the National Assembly to tarnish the name of the government, so as to look like Nigeria was drifting into dictatorship. After watching from far away in London and got briefings from the DG NIA who was planted to spy on lawal daura, PMB  has directed the immediate sack of lawal daura as director general of the department of state service. He has been on the watch list of Pmb for sometime because, he is a mole in government and sympathetic to bukola saraki.

"It is still amazing to me that a longtime friend & a colleague of mine that participated fully in all meetings & plans to have us in PDP has cemented plans to defect to APC, my former party just to ridicule me. I never knew he had eyes on this seat(senate president's seat). It is shocking and surprising to me that a man who danced more than others to welcome us few days ago can be this cunning.  He excused himself from PDP NEC meeting & lied to PDP leaders and I that he was traveling abroad but ended up in a meeting with VP and Asiwaju BAT the same day we had the NEC meeting". "Even those who promised me the automatic presidential ticket are now scared of me simply because the kwara state PDP boss has decamped to APC. Politics is indeed local"
