Image
The Ogoni Dialogue Committee, ODC, has denied claims that it influenced the allocation of 40 job slots at the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL, or played any role in the award of government contracts. Speaking at a press conference in Port Harcourt, ODC Chairman, Professor Don Baridam, said the 40 employment opportunities were proposed as part of confidence-building measures in the Ogoni dialogue with the Federal Government. He, however, stressed that the committee neither selected nor recruited the beneficiaries, saying NNPCL relied on its existing recruitment database to identify qualified Ogoni applicants. Professor Baridam acknowledged that some ODC members submitted names for consideration but said the nominations did not determine the final selection. The committee also rejected claims of involvement in government or NNPCL contract awards, saying such matters were outside its mandate.

Image
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has revealed that she felt unexpectedly lonely and sad after her staff eliminated cockroaches from her official residence in Tokyo. Takaichi shared the unusual experience on X on August 22 while responding to a question she frequently receives about whether she had encountered the ghosts reportedly said to haunt the prime minister’s official residence. However, Takaichi said she had never encountered any ghosts. Instead, she found herself dealing with cockroaches.

She explained that she carefully wiped the floor beneath her dining table, disposed of food scraps in a covered bin and washed and sorted plastic containers. Takaichi also explained that she could not bring herself to k+ll the cockroaches because of her influence from Japanese manga artist Osamu Tezuka’s Phoenix, which explores the concept o...

PRESIDENT TINUBU IS WORKING AND DESERVES TO BE PRESIDENT FOR A LONG TIME - OLUBADAN LADOJA

Image
The Olubadan of Ibadan, Oba Rasheed Ladoja, has said President Bola Tinubu deserves to remain in office for a long time, praising his performance and saying his leadership should be viewed beyond party politics.  Ladoja made the remarks on Monday at the flag-off of the dualisation of the Ibadan-Ijebu Road in Ogun State, where Tinubu was represented by Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun.  Addressing repeated references to the APC during the ceremony, Ladoja said the gathering was not a party rally but an opportunity to appreciate Tinubu for approving the road project.  “I’ve been hearing everybody talking APC, APC. Bola Tinubu is not an APC man, no. Bola Tinubu is working and deserves to be president for a long, long time,” he said.  He stressed that Tinubu should be recognised as president of the entire country rather than being defined by his political party. “He deserves more than being an APC president. He’s not an APC president. He’s president of Nigeri...

Image
Former Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai (retd.), has warned the United States against releasing documents allegedly linked to past dr@g-tr@fficking investigations involving President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, saying such a move could amount to foreign interference in Nigeria’s affairs and influence the 2027 elections.  Buratai made the remarks in a paper titled “Nigeria First: A Case for Protecting National Sovereignty and Dignity – A Patriotic and Non-Partisan Perspective,” published on his verified Facebook page.  He argued that the controversy should not be viewed solely as an issue concerning Tinubu, stressing that its implications could extend to the country’s image, sovereignty and political stability.  “This is not merely about Bola Tinubu; it is about 250 million Nigerians whose national pride, economic prospects, and global standing hang in the balance,” he stated.  Buratai questioned why an issue dating back about 33 years was being revived,...

23-YEAR-OLD MAN SENTENCED TO 10 YEARS IN PRISON FOR USING CHATGPT TO PLAN BANK R%BBERY IN THE U.S

Image
A 23-year-old Omaha man, Deron Lewis-Payne, has been sentenced to 10 years and one month in federal prison after pleading guilty to robbing a bank and using, carrying and brandishing a fir+arm during the crime. Lewis-Payne robbed an i3Bank branch in Omaha, Nebraska, on February 10. He reportedly entered the bank, pointed a g¥n at tellers and threatened them before escaping with approximately $9,175. The case has attracted attention because investigators discovered that Lewis-Payne had used ChatGPT while preparing for the r%bbery. According to investigators, his phone contained evidence of searches related to police response times and firearm-related questions. Investigators were also able to link him to the r%bbery through surveillance footage, which captured his face, clothing and vehicle.

THE LACK OF TRUST AMONG NIGERIANS IS ALARMING - COMEDIAN BRAIN JOTTER SAYS AS HE RECOUNTS HIS EXPERIENCES

Image
Comedian and skit maker Brain Jotter has spoken about the growing lack of trust in Nigeria, saying people now have to be extremely careful when paying for products and services because of widespread deception. Speaking during an interview, he said even sending a driver money for fuel could result in dishonesty, as the driver might spend less than the amount given and still produce a receipt. “The lack of trust in Nigeria is alarming. You send your driver ₦5,000 for fuel, but he’s buying ₦3,500. If you ask him for a receipt, you’ll get the receipt. Men dey run receipt.” Brain Jotter also recalled buying an expensive wig for his mother despite knowing little about wigs. He said the experience made him question whether some products are genuinely worth their prices. “I wanted to buy a wig for my mama. I bought this wig, ₦800 and something thousand. And I don’t know about wigs. Then she brought the wig and shampoo, and more. Overpriced nonsense everywhere.” He further raised co...

IF YOU LINE UP ALL THE WEALTHY PEOPLE IN NIGERIA, YOU CANNOT TRACE MOST OF THEM TO ANY PRODUCTIVE ACTIVITY - OBY EZEKWESILI

Image
Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, has criticised Nigeria’s political and economic system, arguing that questionable wealth is often rewarded while productive citizens struggle. Speaking on News Central’s “60 Minutes with Mr. Kay,” Ezekwesili said Nigeria’s leadership recruitment process has been structured in ways that can make a lack of character an advantage. She said, “the processes for leadership recruitment have in many ways been designed in the image of those who have held the levers of power.” According to her, when people in power create barriers against individuals with character, “the political culture that then becomes one where a lack of character is actually an advantage.” “When you have that kind of a distortion where bad behavior is what your political system rewards, there will be a market for bad behavior. And then good behavior is punished,” she said. She also criticised the perception that government is a major pathway to becoming wealthy. “Lo...

Image
Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) have arrested a 101-year-old great-grandmother for dealing in illicit drugs and also intercepted cocaine concealed in edible cassava flour popularly known as fufu. In a rare and startling development, NDLEA operatives on Saturday, August, arrested a 101-year-old woman, Esther Ogunmabo, in Ilisan, Ogun state, with retail sachets of skunk, a strain of cannabis weighing 90 grams, which she claims she sells to locals. The centenarian told operatives that she resorted to the illicit drug trade after her provisions shop was razed by fire, adding that one of her daughters, who resides in Lagos, arranges the supply of the substance to her every four days, which she in turn sold in bits. The Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of NDLEA, Brig Gen Mohamed Buba Marwa (Rtd), has, however, directed that the suspect be granted bail and placed on counselling because of her advanced age, while her daughter has been arrested.

"MARRIAGE SHOULDN'T TAKE AWAY YOUR INDEPENDENCE; MARRIED WOMEN SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO GO ON A GIRLS 'TRIPS" - TONI TONE

Image
Author and social media personality Toni Tone has argued that marriage should not mean giving up personal freedom, friendships or experiences outside the relationship. Speaking in a video, Toni said she disagreed with the idea that married women should only travel with their husbands and should stop going on trips with their friends. According to her, people often forget that marriage is meant to add partnership to an individual's life rather than place restrictions on their existing lifestyle. She noted that before marriage, people typically have friends, hobbies and interests outside their relationships, and questioned why those aspects of their lives should suddenly disappear after getting married. Toni, who is married, said she enjoys spending time and travelling with her husband but believes marriage should not prevent her from going out with her friends or travelling with her sister. She stressed that maintaining friendships and having experiences outside the marr...

"RELEASE TINUBU'S RECORDS NOW," - ATIKU TELLS FBI

Image
Presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Atiku Abubakar, has urged the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to release records relating to President Bola Tinubu, arguing that citing “d@nger to lives” cannot justify withholding information that can lawfully be made public. The FBI had asked a US district court in Columbia for permission to submit ex parte, in camera declarations explaining why it withheld some records linked to allegations of dr¥g tr+fficking involving Tinubu. In an application dated August 20, the agency said it could not publicly disclose all the reasons for withholding certain information. Reacting in a statement issued Saturday by his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication, Phrank Shaibu, Atiku questioned the FBI’s justification. “The FBI says disclosure could endanger lives. Which lives? Nigerians are already d¥ing,” he said. Atiku linked the hardship to the removal of fuel subsidy, saying it had driven u...

MARRIAGE ISN'T EASY, IF YOU MARRY YOU'LL REGRET AND IF YOU STAY SINGLE YOU'LL STILL REGRET." - SINGER RYBEENA

Image
Singer Rybeena has advised people not to be afraid of marriage because of the challenges that may come with it, noting that both marriage and staying single can come with regrets.  Speaking on the Wahala Podcast, Rybeena said people should be willing to take the risk, stressing that marriage is not always about romance and happiness. “If you marry, you regret. If you don’t marry, you still regret. Choose one of the regrets and take the risk,” he said.  The singer explained that disagreements and arguments are inevitable in marriage because couples come from different backgrounds and have different mindsets.  “Marriage is not always like loving, loving. It’s about disagreeing and arguing,” Rybeena said.  He added that what matters most is how couples handle their differences, understand each other and make adjustments for the sake of the relationship.  “What matters is the way we combat, the way we understand each other, and we know our dos and don’ts...

PRES. TINUBU ONLY CONGRATULATED GOV. ADELEKE ON HIS RE-ELECTION WHEN EVERYTHING ELSE FAILED - JOURNALIST RUFAI OSENI

Image
Arise TV journalist Rufai Oseni has claimed that President Bola Tinubu only congratulated Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke on his re-election after “everything failed,” while commending the governor and his supporters for standing firm during the election. Speaking on Arise TV, Oseni said Adeleke’s resilience and the support of Osun residents played a major role in the outcome, noting that replicating such resistance to electoral inducements across Nigeria would be difficult. “It was after everything failed, President Tinubu congratulated,” Oseni said. He added, “This Adeleke is very strong. His head is a bulldozer. Adeleke’s head is strong and the people loved him and they stood with him.” However, Oseni pointed to vote buying as one of the major challenges undermining Nigeria’s electoral process, despite the rejection of inducements by some voters. “Osun people can sing Ojutowoo, Ojutowoo, but they still collected the money.

BILLIONAIRE BUSINESSMAN, JOHN OVERDECK'S WIFE DEMAND $6.2 BILLION IN DIVORCE SETTLEMENT AFTER HE OFFERS JUST ONE-TENTH OF HER REQUEST

Image
The divorce battle between billionaire hedge fund manager John Overdeck and his wife, Laura Overdeck, has begun in a Newark courtroom, with Laura seeking a multibillion-dollar share of his fortune.  Laura is asking for 35% of her husband’s stake in Two Sigma Investments, which her lawyer values at about $6.2 billion, along with hundreds of millions of dollars in bonds and equal control of the family foundation.  Her legal team claims John offered her about $633 million, describing it as an attempt to give her as little as possible. However, John’s lawyer disputed this, saying he offered a $723 million tax-free equitable settlement.  The major issue in the case is whether John’s stake in Two Sigma should be considered a marital asset. John’s lawyers argue that the hedge fund was founded two years before the couple married in 2002 and had already become an established business.  Laura’s lawyers, however, contend that Two Sigma had little tangible value when...
