I recently met with a 90-year-old retired John Aya in Mbo, Akwa Ibom. He started work in 1962, served with Cross River Agricultural Development, later transferred to the Cross River Basin Authority in 1982, and retired in 1989. For decades, he was paid his pension. But in 2023, he was suddenly told his service record was “just 7 years” and that he no longer qualifies. This man is now completely blind, in poor health, and unable to afford his medications. He has all his letters and documents proving his service, yet he has been abandoned by the system he once served. He has been seeking help, reaching out to me repeatedly, until I finally went to visit him. What I saw broke me, this is not how a country should treat its elders. Soon, I will begin releasing videos of him narrating his ordeal, with documents to back every word. I appeal to you, my friends: please share this story until it reaches those who must act. We call on @PTADNigeria and @CrossRiverbasin , justice delayed is justice denied. Pension is not charity. Pension is a right.

“The treatment of Ms. Comfort Emmanson by Ibom Air was reckless and violated her right to dignity of human person” The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) strongly condemns the treatment of Ms. Comfort Emmanson in the incident aboard an Ibom Air flight on 10 August 2025 and the subsequent lifetime flight ban imposed on her by Ibom Air and the Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON). These actions are heavy-handed, unlawful, and a grave affront to the rule of law and human dignity. It is deeply disturbing that Ms. Emmanson was forcibly removed from the aircraft, stripped of her clothing in public, and subjected to humiliation that was filmed and circulated online. Such conduct is degrading, violates her right to dignity and privacy, and falls far short of the standards of civility and professionalism expected in the aviation sector. No person, regardless of the circumstances, should be treated in such a dehumanising manner. While Ibom Air has issued its own account of events, other video footage has emerged showing an Ibom Air hostess preventing Ms. Emmanson from alighting from the aircraft, a conduct that could constitute false imprisonment and a possible provocation that escalated the situation. This makes it all the more critical that the matter be subjected to an independent, impartial investigation by the appropriate authorities before any disciplinary action is taken against her. The decision to impose a lifetime ban without affording Ms. Emmanson a fair opportunity to be heard is equally troubling. Ibom Air has so far only presented its own version of events without giving her the chance to respond. This one-sided process, culminating in a ban supported by AON, breaches the fundamental principle of fair hearing and renders the decision legally and morally indefensible. The power to suspend or restrict a passenger’s right to fly rests with the appropriate statutory regulator, not private associations or airline operators acting unilaterally. The photographing, dissemination, and online circulation of indecent images of Ms. Emmanson is also an egregious invasion of privacy and a criminal act. Even if the incident was to be reported, the footage should have been blurred or edited in such a way that it did not expose her nudity to the public. Those responsible for capturing and distributing the unedited footage must be identified and prosecuted. Such acts erode public trust and undermine the rights of all citizens to be treated with dignity and respect. The NBA demands that Ibom Air immediately withdraw the lifetime ban, issue a public apology to Ms. Emmanson, and cooperate fully with an impartial investigation into this incident. We also call on the Minister for Aviation, the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, and relevant security agencies to conduct a thorough inquiry, sanction all those found culpable, and enforce strict compliance with established standards for the humane treatment of air passengers. The NBA stands ready to provide Ms. Emmanson with pro bono legal support to ensure her rights are protected and that she obtains redress for the violations suffered. We will not remain silent while the fundamental rights of any Nigerian are trampled upon, whether by public authorities, private corporations, or individuals. Respect for human dignity and the rule of law must never be compromised, and in this matter, justice must prevail. Mazi Afam Osigwe, SAN President, Nigerian Bar Association Dr. Mobolaji Ojibara General Secretary

"Personally, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu called me before he was sworn in. I submitted all the details of my investigation. Over a N100 trillion naira—by then, we calculated it to be over $113 billion dollars stolen". "I gave him the full document and all the names of people who stole and shared the over N100 trillion naira among themselves" "I said to Mr. President, this investigstion cost me my election. I escaped assassination twice. The reason I left the country to hide when I should be campaigning for my reelection in 2023. Mr. President Sir. use the document to recover our money and build the country. With this you won't need to borrow money from anywhere in the next 8 years". "But Mr. President threw all the documents into the dustbin and now he is applying and applying for loans everywhere when indeed he knew those who stole over a N100 trillion in Buhari's regime." The same men are the pillars of his government. Corruption enhanced - Hon. Mohammad Kazaure.

Olusegun Mimiko gave poor kids in Ondo free uniforms, free buses, free meals — then put them in world-class “Mega Schools” with ICT labs, libraries, and AC classrooms. He even set up Nigeria’s first Medical University. Public education had dignity under Mimiko. After Mimiko left office, the Mega Schools began to rot. The free buses stopped. Uniforms vanished. Standards collapsed. Some Mega Schools now look like abandoned warehouses. Successors gave them neglect. This is why Nigeria stays poor. We kill every good thing. 🧠💔🇳🇬

There is an injustice going on in the University of Calabar About 300 Dental students have been told to withdraw to another institution or leave because the school took more than allotted quota. This is inhumane. How do the students pick up their lives? Have they thought of the ricochet effect of mental damage this will do the students? What of wasted years? We need one voice to save the Dental students of UNICAL. #SaveDentalStudentsOfUnical

Santiment data reveals a classic wealth transfer pattern: Whales accumulated 83,105 #Bitcoin over the past month while retail sold 387 $BTC. Smart money buys when retail capitulates. This divergence often precedes significant moves. Worth watching this trend closely.
