Minister of Works, Sen. Dave Umahi said, “And I want to commend the likes of Bolaji, incidentally from kilometre zero to four from what I’m seeing, he is the only one that is majorly affected. That’s the only infrastructure I can see that is affected.”

Responding, [b] the Chief Executive Officer, Mami Chula Beach, Mr Bolaji Ariyo, acknowledged the project’s necessity for development, even when it causes inconvenience for a small number of people.

He said, “We all hope this is the renewed hope that we all clamoured for, during the campaign, we all prayed for development in Nigeria.

“And some of us have so much belief in Mr President that he will do it well, and this is an opportunity.

“For example, I’m a Lagosian and this is also a development that has been set down for a very long time. It is good that Mr President is doing that right now.

“It is unfortunate. We all prayed for development, and in every development, some people pay the price and sacrifice for the development.

“You might be wondering why I’m talking like this, maybe because I was also on the other side before, so, I understand what governance means.

“I understand when a government is promising to make life easy for the entire Nigerians.

”Some of us are affected, no doubt about it, but those of us affected are not up to 0.1% of the millions of people that will enjoy the coastal roads.

“That’s why people like me, have taken it to heart to also support Mr President and the honourable minister to ensure that this road comes to life.” [/b]

This is how reasonable people talk. Not playing victim with every government policy because of where you come from. Imagine if this is done to some people from we-know-where

Just as I am surprised Obi did not blame America government for this. I am sure if the crash had happened in Nigeria, the eedi0t would have blamed FG.

Politics / Tinubu Orders Probe Of Betta Edu's Ministry, Promises To Take Action by Afonja2: 8:08pm On Jan 07
TINUBU ORDERS PROBE OF BETTA EDU

*Minister of Information and National Orientation Addresses Circulating Narratives on Payments made by Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs*

The Ministry of Information and National Orientation acknowledges the concerns raised by the public regarding the alleged payment of funds into a private account by the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation. We are aware of the narratives circulating widely and wish to assure Nigerians that the Government takes these issues most seriously.

The Federal Government, under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is transparent and accountable to the people, and committed to ensuring that public funds are allocated and utilized effectively and efficiently to address the needs of Nigerians.

In light of recent events, the President has directed that a thorough and comprehensive investigation be conducted to ascertain the accuracy and validity of the reported details.

The government is determined to unravel the truth as it relates to this matter, and assures that appropriate action will be taken to ensure that any breaches and infractions are identified and decisively punished, in line with the Administration’s commitment to public accountability and due process.

The public is advised to note, against the backdrop of various unverified narratives circulating on the Internet, that the Ministry of Information and National Orientation, under the leadership of Minister Mohammed Idris, is the primary source for verified information about events and actions of the Federal Government of Nigeria.

Only accurate details will be shared with the public. The Ministry is committed to providing timely updates to keep Nigerians informed about the progress of the investigation.

We urge Nigerians to exercise patience as the investigation unfolds. The government is focused on ensuring a fair and unbiased process, and the findings will be communicated duly and transparently to the public.

Let her go back to her husband so that they can train their children together.

However, before then let there be a family meeting where agreements will be reached on do's and dont's henceforth and the agreement must be documented with each parties appending their signatures.

The agreement should be drawn in such a way that the woman and her children will be protected.

My 37-year-old son got married without my permission. How can I teach him a lesson?

You are here asking how to teach your son a lesson, when you should be the one offering reconciliatory advice? Anyways, with all the rubbish you have been posting on this platform, I am not surprised by the action of your son. He must have suffered a lot to have been sired by an irresponsible, immature, disgraceful and ignorant father like you. I am disappointed to see the posts coming out of a man that has a 37 year old son. I will not be surprised if he disowns you very soon.

Foolish old cargo!

Crime / Two Nigerians Arrested In Drug Buy-bust Operation In The Philippines by Afonja2: 8:32am On Sep 14, 2023
Government anti-narcotics operatives have arrested two Nigerian nationals and seized at least P6.2 million worth of heroin in a buy-bust operation at a shopping mall in Imus City, Cavite, in the Philippines.

Police Region 4A identified the suspects as Enuka John Chukwuemeka and Christopher Nwabufo, both residents of Golden Acres Village, Las Piñas City.

Police said the suspects were arrested on Wednesday, September 13, 2023, after they sold 40 grams of heroin worth P240,000 to a poseur buyer at the main entrance of a shopping mall in Barangay (village) Tanzang Luma 5 at around 4:05 p.m.

During routine frisking following the arrest, law enforcers reportedly found another kilo of heroin worth P6,000,000 and 15 grams of marijuana with an estimated value of P1,800 in the possession of the suspects.

Authorities are investigating the source of the illegal drugs.

The operatives also seized two mobile phones from the suspects, which will be subjected to digital forensic examinations to determine records of drug transactions.

Chukwuemeka and Nwabufo face charges for violation of Section 5 in relation to Section 26 paragraph B (Attempt or Conspiracy to Sell Dangerous Drugs) and Section 11 (Possession of Dangerous Drugs), Article II of Republic Act (RA) 9165 otherwise known as “The Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.’’

The operation was conducted by the PDEA, Philippine National Police (PNP), and the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI).

President Joe Biden met with Nigerian President Bola Tinubu today on the sidelines of the G20 in New Delhi, India to reinforce our enduring commitment to the U.S.-Nigeria relationship and to the longstanding friendship between our two countries and peoples.

Nigeria’s invitation to the G20 Summit is a recognition of Nigeria’s important global role as Africa’s largest democracy and economy.

A mild drama ensued between Arise TV anchors Rufai Oseni and Reuben Abati on their show this morning, September 8.

While anchoring their programme, Rufai applauded two presenters of the TV station and claimed they were the only ones that went to the ‘war front’ to cover the EndSARS protest.

Abati who couldn’t hide his surprise at Rufai’s claim, immediately corrected him stating that other media houses covered the EndSARS protest as well and that Rufai shouldn’t “exaggerate things’'
