A former Chief Security Officer of Khana Local Government Area and former Youth President of Bua-Yeghe Community, Comrade Naade Naade Burale Goodluck, has once again spoken on the lingering crisis between the Uegwere and Bua-Yeghe communities.

Speaking with RwGBlog News, the youth leader reaffirmed his commitment, as well as that of His Royal Majesty Solomon Ndigbara, to any effort aimed at restoring peace and harmony between the two communities.

Comrade Burale cautioned individuals against dragging the name of Solomon Ndigbara into the dispute, describing the monarch as a long-standing advocate of peace in Ogoniland.

"Let's stop dragging Solomon Ndigbara into this crisis. He has always been an instrument of peace in Ogoniland," he said.

Addressing comments allegedly made by a resident of Uegwere identified as Godspower, Burale noted that His Royal Majesty has been away for several months and should not be linked to the ongoing conflict. He stressed that no father would be pleased to see unrest within his own household.

"Godspower from Uegwere has been dragging the name of Solomon Ndigbara into this crisis. Solomon has been out of the area for months now," Comrade Burale stated.

He further called on the King of Gokana, the Gbene Mene Gokana, and the Gbene Mene of Kaani Babbe to intervene in the matter, expressing confidence that their involvement could bring a lasting resolution to the dispute.

According to him, no community can achieve meaningful development in an atmosphere of conflict, emphasizing the need for peace and reconciliation.

"The only solution to this crisis is for the Gbene Mene of Gokana and the Gbene Mene of Kaani Babbe to re-establish the boundaries that have been removed," Comrade Naade Naade Burale Goodluck concluded.

101-YEAR-OLD GREAT-GRANDMOTHER ARRESTED FOR SE@LING HARD DR¥GS

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.

WHATSAPP TO START CHARGING NIGERIA BUSINESSES FROM OCTOBER 2026

Businesses using Meta’s WhatsApp Business Platform will begin paying for certain customer messages from October 1, 2026, following a new pricing structure announced by the company. The new policy applies primarily to organisations that use the WhatsApp Business Platform, formerly known as the WhatsApp Business API, to handle customer communications at scale. However, regular WhatsApp users and small businesses using the standard WhatsApp Business app are not the primary targets of the new charges. Under the revised pricing model, fees will vary depending on the type of message businesses send to customers. Utility messages, such as payment notifications, order confirmations and other service-related updates, will cost approximately $0.0101 per message. Marketing messages, meanwhile, will attract a higher charge of about $0.062 per message. The new structure means businesses that rely heavily on WhatsApp for customer engagement, notifications and promotional campaigns may ne...

The coalition also proposed an enforceable transition charter that would ensure all participating parties comply with the terms of their ag...

WHY YOU SHOULD KEEP RECEIPTS WHEN YOU HELP PEOPLE - SINGER DAVIDO SHARES

Popular singer Davido has left those around him laughing after sharing a hilarious but seemingly serious warning about helping people. “In life, you never know where your kindness can take you,” Davido said. “It can either take you up or down.” But just when it seemed like he was about to deliver a motivational speech, the 30BG crooner switched things up and dropped the line that takes one into deep thinking. “That is why when you help people, always keep receipts. Don’t play with me,” he added. Apparently, according to Davido, helping people is good, but make sure you have evidence to show for it.

The Lagos State Government has warned husbands against forcing their wives into having s#x without their consent, stating that such conduct could attract life imprisonment under the state’s criminal laws.
