"TINUBU IS BETTER THANK ATIKU" - BABACHIR LAWAL QUITS ADC SAYS PRIMARIES 'MASSIVELY RIGGED' FOR ATIKU.

Former SGF Babachir Lawal has announced his resignation from the ADC following Atiku Abubakar's emergence as the party's presidential candidate, saying Tinubu would be a better president than the former vice president.

Lawal said the ADC presidential primary results were written to favour Atiku and insisted he won't be part of the former vice president's rigging machine in the 2027 presidential election. 

He added that Atiku is incompetent and a tribal, religious bigot who shouldn't come close to the presidential office.

Image
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.

WHATSAPP TO START CHARGING NIGERIA BUSINESSES FROM OCTOBER 2026

Image
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.

OGONI OIL AND GAS HOST COMMUNITIES YOUTH ASSOCIATION CALLS ON OGONI DIALOGUE COMMITTEE TO BE ACCOUNTABLE TO THE PEOPLE

Image
The Ogoni Oil and Gas Host Communities Youth Association has called on the Ogoni Dialogue Committee to demonstrate transparency and accountability by immediately briefing the people of Ogoniland on the outcome of its meeting held in Abuja on September 9, 2026. As critical stakeholders who live with the direct and lasting consequences of oil and gas activities, we believe the people of Ogoniland have the right to know what was discussed, the decisions reached, and any agreements or understandings arising from the Abuja meeting. The Association therefore demands that the full details and outcome of the meeting be made public without further delay. Furthermore, we strongly reject the exclusion of the Ogoni Oil and Gas Host Communities Youth Association from the ongoing dialogue concerning the possible resumption of oil and gas exploration and related activities in Ogoniland.
