Nigerian comedian, Seyi Law, has sparked fresh debate after declaring that Nigeria is safer today than it was a decade ago. Speaking on The Honest Bunch Podcast, the comic openly affirmed his support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, insisting that the current administration has made significant security gains.

When asked by co-host Daddy Freeze if the country is safer now than 10 years ago, Seyi Law responded emphatically, “Nigeria is safer now than 10 years ago.” He argued that the Tinubu-led government has neutralised more bandits than previous administrations since the era of former President Goodluck Jonathan.

Seyi Law questioned critics, asking when last Nigerians heard of widespread bomb blasts, suggesting that the scale of terror seen during the peak of the Boko Haram insurgency has reduced. However, activist Zekeri, who appeared alongside him, strongly disagreed.

He maintained that Nigeria is more unsafe than ever, citing recent att@cks in the Northeast, rising k+dnappings, and the k+llings of senior military officers. According to him, citizens are increasingly forced to rely on themselves in the face of insecurity.

The conversation also veered into politics, with Zekeri backing Peter Obi as a better leader, claiming his finances are traceable “down to every kobo.” Seyi Law pushed back, insisting that Nigeria’s economy is improving under Tinubu and that reforms, though painful, are necessary.

The heated exchange has since fueled conversations online, with Nigerians divided over claims about security and economic realities under the current administration.

2027: "I'M NOT SURE OF GETTING ADC PRESIDENTIAL TICKET " - PETER OBI

Former presidential candidate Peter Obi has revealed that he is unsure about securing the presidential ticket of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) ahead of the 2027 general elections. Obi spoke candidly about the uncertainties surrounding his political journey and ongoing coalition discussions. He noted that while many have questioned his chances within the ADC, there are no guarantees. “I’ve been asked how certain I am that the ADC will give me the ticket. The truth is, I cannot be sure. What matters most is our commitment to a shared cause,” he said. The former Anambra State governor emphasized that his priority is building a movement focused on national interest rather than personal ambition. According to him, the current political environment demands resilience, consistency, and sacrifice especially from those in the opposition. Reflecting on Nigeria’s current state, Obi expressed concern about how the country reached this point and warned against abandoning efforts...

According to reports circulating on social media, Victor is said to have emptied his savings to pay dowry and organise an elaborate wedding, hoping to begin a new chapter with his partner. However, the excitement surrounding the union was short-lived after he uncovered that his wife had resumed a relationship with another man she had been involved with prior to their marriage.

A sharp contradiction has emerged between Washington and Tehran over the state of diplomatic contacts between the two countries, with Iranian state media Press TV flatly denying that any negotiations — direct or indirect — have taken place, even as United States President Donald Trump claimed that talks had been productive and were set to continue. Trump made the disclosure early Monday on his Truth Social platform, writing in all capitals that the two countries had engaged in “very good and productive conversations” over the past two days aimed at achieving “a complete and total resolution of our hostilities in the Middle East.” The US president said he had ordered a halt to his threatened strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure in light of the talks, signalling what appeared to be a diplomatic breakthrough.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has stated that ongoing negotiations led by U.S. President Donald Trump to end the conflict with Iran will not stop Israel from carrying out military operations in the region. “The United States may choose to withdraw from the war, which I respect, but Israel will not. Israel will continue bombing Iran and Lebanon, whether negotiations succeed or not, until all threats to our nation from these countries are eliminated,” Netanyahu told journalists. The statement underscores Israel’s firm stance on national security, even as international efforts continue to mediate tensions in the Middle East.

Jehovah’s Witnesses have introduced a notable shift in their long-standing stance on bl+od transfusions, now allowing members to use their own stored bl+od during medical procedures. Under the updated policy, members can have their bl+od removed, preserved, and later reinfused, particularly in planned s¥rgeries. However, the religious group maintains its strict prohibition against receiving bl+od from others. Gerrit Lösch, a member of the group’s leadership, said the decision reflects personal responsibility, noting that “each Christian must decide for himself how his bl+od will be used in medical and s¥rgical care.” Jehovah’s Witnesses, known for their door-to-door evangelism, say their core belief remains unchanged, citing biblical teachings that instruct followers to “abstain from bl+od.” The group has around 144,000 members in the UK and about nine million globally. Despite the adjustment, critics, especially former members, argue the change falls short. Mitch Melo...

The Honourable Minister of Works, David Umahi, has addressed the ongoing controversy surrounding claims made by Mrs. Tracy Ohiri, clarifying key issues and directing that the matter be resolved through the courts.
