Public officers must always bear in mind the cliche that power is transient. They have limited time to make their modest contributions & bow out for others to continue. No one can annex public office as a personal chattel. That’s why I recoil from the razzmatazz of public office

Yesterday, I was privileged to attend the National Day celebration of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in Abuja. During his speech, the Ambassador of Saudi Arabia to Nigeria, His Excellency, Yousef Bin Mohammed Al-Balawi announced the start of direct flights from Abuja to Jeddah in December by SAUDIA AIRLINES, something we have all worked on for sometime now. We are also pleased to note that, due to our continued insistence on deployment of newer aircraft by foreign airlines to the Nigerian route, SAUDIA AIRLINES, have unveiled the AIRBUS 321 XLR, the newest model of the AIRBUS family, to be deployed on the Abuja-Jeddah route.

The context of Von Batten’s assault conviction was contained in the judgment of the district of Columbia court of appeal, in the appeal filed by Cynthia D. Murphy, the lobbyist’s ex-girlfriend. In the court document, Von Batten’s name was stated as “Karl M.E. Okeke”. thecable.ng/revealed-us-cour…

Happy birthday, mummy, @SenRemiTinubu . You deserve all the accolades and more. Your uncommon large-heartedness and compassion for the poor and vulnerable have fully complemented Mr. President’s Renewed Hope Agenda. We all wish you many years ahead in good health.
Oluremi mi, @SenRemiTinubu Today, I celebrate the woman who has walked beside me with patience, grace and uncommon courage. Àwọn àgbà sọ pé, “Ìyàwó rere ni adé ọkọ rẹ̀.” A good wife is her husband’s crown. The Book of Proverbs, which you know far better than I do, also speaks eloquently of the worth of a virtuous woman. You have given these words true meaning in my life. You have stood by my side through every season. The burdens that were mine to bear often found their way onto your shoulders. The thoughts I could not put into words somehow found their way to you. In difficult times, when the future was uncertain, you stayed calm beside me and prayed with me. Through all these years, you have remained the one who truly understands me. More often than not, you sense when I need counsel before I ask. There have been nights when your presence alone was counsel enough. I call you my truest friend and confidante because you speak the truth plainly, even on the days I would rather not hear it. After a demanding day, you wait until we are alone before telling me what I need to hear. I have always cherished you for that honesty. Our home bears the lasting imprint of your devotion. Our children and grandchildren have grown beneath the shelter of your prayers. They carry your values of faith and kindness wherever life takes them. Nigerians know you for your compassion, kindness, generosity of spirit and steadfast faith. I have watched you touch lives quietly and consistently, offering hope and support to those in need. From the New Era Foundation during our years in the saddle in Lagos to the Renewed Hope Initiative today, your care has reached many young boys and girls, widows, elderly citizens, and women farmers across the country. Those affected by tuberculosis or any disease at all have found in you a compassionate advocate and a determined champion. I know the prayers you offer for people whose names you may never know. I also know many whom you have helped without ever meeting them. For you, compassion has never recognised the boundaries of tribe, region or religion. A long journey teaches a man the true value of a good partner. We have travelled a long road together. I think of the difficult decisions we talked through for hours and the sacrifices no one else saw. Laughter and prayer carried us through many of them. If life returned me to the beginning, I would choose the same road that led me to you. Through every mile, my heart has always remained at home with you. I thank you for the life we have built and the love that has held it together. Happy 66th birthday, my darling Oluremi. I pray that God Almighty will grant you many more years in good health and joy. May the years ahead bring you the same comfort and happiness you have so freely given to me and many others. With all my love, Bola Ahmed Tinubu President, Federal Republic of Nigeria September 21, 2026

I want the world to see what the NDC’s thugs came to my community in Effurun, Uvwie LGA of Delta State, to do on Friday, 18th September, 2026. They wrecked havoc on billboards pasted everywhere by Tompolo’s door-to-door Campaign Organisation, entered people’s shops with dangerous weapons and looted the shops. If it had been the other way round against the APC, the section of the bias PRESS and so-called human rights groups would have been screaming to high heavens, but since this happened, EVERYWHERE IS MUTE. This is the EXACT point I made when I openly condemned the blockade of Peter Obi’s entourage from entering Benue State. But what happened in Benue is nothing compared to this. The double standards everywhere is sickening. The video is clear and the evidence is overwhelming. We have more evidence. The thugs were even accompanied by law-enforcement agents in their payroll. As the foremost political leader in that community, I will not let this slide. I have warned everyone not to resort to self-help. I WILL BE SUBMITTING A PETITION TO THE INSPECTOR- GENERAL OF POLICE THIS WEEK TO THOROUGHLY INVESTIGATE this incident and bring all those found wanting to book (even against APC leaders, if anyone crossed the line). Disciplinary action should also be taken against those law-enforcement agents in their midst that condoned the looting and destruction of properties. Some of us are now ready for the long haul!

Festus Keyamo, SAN, CON, FCIArb (UK) retweeted
In less than three months to the general elections, the APC has just won bye-elections in 4 out of 5 Federal and State Assembly constituencies in 3 regions in the country, namely North-West (Kano), North-East (Bauchi and Gombe) and South-South (Delta - my State). APC lost one State Assembly constituency in Bauchi to the APM. The spread of those votes for the APC across the 3 regions is VERY SIGNIFICANT going into the general elections in January. The makers of our Constitution that insisted that, for someone to be President of Nigeria, you have to secure 25 percent of the votes in two-third of the States in the country were no fools, taking into account the heterogeneous nature of Nigeria. Let me keep our gunpowder dry for now. A fuller analysis of this significant factor in Presidential elections will follow on January 19th or 20th, 2027 when PRESIDENT BOLA AHMED TINUBU is declared winner of the Presidential election by the power of the people of Nigeria and the usual wailings begin. Please, bookmark this tweet. No be cho cho cho!!

Governor of Anambra State (Obi’s home State) also doing the Lord’s work for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. “Ask Him, Since He Has Been In Politics, What Has He Brought For The Igbos? Look At The Bad State And Erosion In Anambra For a Long Time. Since He Started Politics, What Has He Done About It? Then, When It’s Time For Election, You Come And Start Playing With Our Emotions And Still Want Us To Waste Our Votes On You And Remain Where We Are. It Won’t Happen Again. 2027 Will Be Different. We Igbos Will Get Our Own Share This Time Around By Voting Right.” ~

The continuous reference to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT by His Excellency, ex Vice-President Atiku Abubakar in his Press Conference earlier today as ‘Bola’ is very disrespectful and discourteous. He should know better that no matter your differences with Mr. President, for the sake of the country, that office should be accorded all the dignity it deserves. The tone reeks of pain and bitterness in his heart. After all, he made the outlandish claim the other day that Mr. President is older than himself. It is therefore a contradiction that he would also refer to an ‘elder’ by his first name.
"Bola Tinubu should not be ashamed to do what is necessary to lower the price of petrol simply because Atiku Abubakar proposed a government intervention. He should just take the idea, rename it if he wishes, and even take the credit. What matters to me is that Nigerians pay less" — Atiku Abubakar, ADC presidential candidate
