Trump Considers U.S. Withdrawal from NATO, Calls Alliance “Paper Tiger”

  Donald Trump has revealed that the United States is considering withdrawing from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, following disagreements over the alliance’s stance on the conflict involving Iran. In an interview with The Telegraph published on Wednesday, Trump described NATO as a “paper tiger,” raising concerns about its strength and relevance in current global security matters. The U.S. leader expressed dissatisfaction with NATO’s refusal to support military action related to Iran, a position that appears to have widened the gap between Washington and its long-standing allies. Trump’s remarks signal a renewed wave of criticism against the alliance, which has historically served as a cornerstone of Western defense cooperation. His stance also revives long-standing debates about the U.S. role within NATO and whether the country should continue its commitment to the bloc. Security analysts warn that any move by the United States to withdraw from NATO could significantly res...

The Member representing Obokun/Oriade Federal Constituency of Osun State in the National Assembly and Chairman, House Committee on Foreign Affairs, Honourable Dr. Busayo Oluwole Oke, has extended warm felicitations and heartfelt goodwill to his constituents, Nigerians at home and in the diaspora, party faithful, associates, and friends on the occasion of the New Year 2026.



In his New Year message, Honourable Oke described the beginning of a new year as a moment for gratitude, reflection, renewal of hope, and recommitment to shared national values. He noted that despite the challenges faced by individuals, communities, and the nation at large, Nigerians have continued to demonstrate resilience, faith, and an unbreakable spirit.

“I congratulate my dear constituents in Obokun and Oriade, our party faithful in the All Progressives Congress, my associates, supporters, and indeed all Nigerians on the gift of a new year. I pray that 2026 will usher in good health, peace, prosperity, and divine favour for every household and community across our land,” he said.

Honourable Oke emphasized that the new year presents an opportunity for renewed commitment to nation building and collective responsibility. He urged citizens to support policies and programmes of government at all levels, noting that constructive engagement and cooperation are essential for transforming reforms into tangible benefits for the people.

“As citizens, we must understand that governance is a shared responsibility. I urge Nigerians to support the policies of the government of the day so that those policies can truly yield dividends for the people. When reforms are embraced with patience, dialogue, and goodwill, they stand a better chance of delivering lasting positive outcomes,” he stated.

Our nation is in a phase of transition, and while reforms may come with initial discomfort, their ultimate objective is to build a stronger, more resilient economy and society that works for all. Let us remain hopeful, patient, and constructive in our engagement,” Honourable Oke added.

He further reminded Nigerians that leaders, like all citizens, are human and in need of prayers, encouragement, and cooperation to effectively discharge their responsibilities.

“Our leaders are human beings too. They need our prayers, support, and cooperation. Let us not only demand accountability but also extend goodwill and understanding, so that leadership can be exercised in an atmosphere of trust and shared purpose,” he said.

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...

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...

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 ...
