DAVIDO/SHAMBLE ECONOMY: Reno Omokri Can't Be Always Right, We Don't Know Who's Fighting War Between Russia, Nigeria - Abioye Tosin Lawrence

......If UK Appends Signature For New General Election, 'How Bigger Is Nigeria? It's disheartening to see folk like Reno Omkri attack Davido over his latest outburst on Nigeria and its ailing economy. If we compare someone who body-shamed President Tinubu and assaulted him by organizing a demonstration in the diaspora during the general elections, it has the potential to dissuade investors from doing business with the country. Nobody is more Nigerian than hip-hop musician Davido Adeleke (Davido), who unveiled the true X-ray of the country during a time when people were going through a lot. Imagine the situation of the country's economy and telling someone that the United Kingdom, which held elections a few months ago, has collected over two million signatures to have new elections, implying that Prime Minister Kier Starmer has broken his campaign promises. There's a saying that we don't have to be upset at the mirror since we look so terrible. Reno was one of the weapons used to combat the country's awful appearance, and he can't always be correct. You cannot call Mr President all sorts of things to the level of labeling him as a drug dealer in front of the western world without having evidence, and you criticized Davido for his jibe because of your newfound dalliance with the ruling party and President Tinubu. People are wondering why he could no longer find fault with the current administration. Where we go wrong is that we failed to do what was right during the election; people don't love Nigeria, but they love politicians. many people believe that when you criticize the government, you get your own cake, and that's why those who are not trained in the aspect of activism are taking charge because many organizations, vocal voices who condemned the government of Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, such as SERAP, which dragged President Buhari's regime to court countless times are no longer active. We must respect the equal rights of all individuals, as stipulated in the Federal Republic of Nigeria's constitution, which states that no governor or governance, regardless of position in society, is equal before the law. Davido should not be the first to decide if international investors will come to invest in the country if Russia, which has been at war for over a thousand days and has been punished with several sanctions, can still preserve stability. When Nigerians are ready to love the nation deeply, prioritize her interests. When no one can use thugs to influence elections, when no leader is too powerful to buy people but allows democracy to triumph, when the electoral, judiciary, and all institutions in the country are reformed, and Nigerians have a positive attitude toward Nigeria. When those who promote films capable of driving most Nigerians to flee the country begin producing films that educate the people about their history, heritage, what to do, and how to live a better life, foreign investors would flood the country without being forced to. It is preferable for members of the ruling party to defend their party and their failings, but it is the responsibility of Nigerians to determine whether they are performing well and whether Nigeria's economy is superior to that of the smallest country in Africa. It is the electorate's responsibility to determine whether the Naira is superior to the Cefa, shilling, Dinar, Dalasi, and other African currencies, rather than competing with the dollar and pound sterling. If we actually practice democracy. The people should have the right to ask whether the individuals they elected are making better progress in fixing the country, where the typical Nigerian is now eager to stay and halt the Japa syndrome.

BREAKING: PDP Bleeds in Oriade: Commissioner Loses 14 Party Leaders to Wole Oke in Home Ward

In a significant political shift, 14 grassroots leaders, including prominent women and youth coordinators from Ward 11, covering Ijeda and Iloko in Oriade Local Government Area of Osun State, have resigned from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and pledged allegiance to Hon. Wole Oke’s growing political camp in the All Progressives Congress (APC). The mass resignation, formalized in a jointly signed letter, marks a deepening crack within the PDP structure in Oriade, as key mobilizers abandon the party over what they describe as years of marginalization, poor internal democracy, and a lack of direction. Their defection is also seen as a major boost to Wole Oke’s political momentum within the APC, following his recent and controversial departure from the PDP. “We are grateful for the opportunities and experiences we had as PDP members,” the group stated, “but the party no longer reflects our values or aspirations. We believe in Hon. Wole Oke’s leadership and vision, and we are proud to...

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...

The Founder of the Better Nigeria For Better People, Chief. CBN Onwuasoanya Ezendigbo, has lambasted the former Governor of Anambra State and the Presidential candidate in the last general elections under the Labour Party, Peter Obi, for facilitating efforts towards Nnamdi Kanu's release from detention. Ezendigbo, in a statement released on Thursday said that, Nnamdi Kanu lack power to stop insecurity in Southeast Nigeria. According to the former Presidential Aspirant, "Let's have a road map for a 2-month cease-fire agreement to demonstrate that to release the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) would stop insecurity. He's just a political football fan for politicians, he said." "I am challenging both the federal government and Southeast politicians with $10M (Ten Million Dollars), they should tell Nnamdi Kanu if there will be no sit-at-home, no kidnapping in the region, that will give guarantee that he has control over insecurity in the southea...
