@aonanuga1956 Mr image maker, we weren't expecting anything different. A government that lies through its teeth has nothing to offer.

STATEHOUSE PRESS RELEASE
Wale Edun, former Finance Minister, and Musa Dangiwa, Housing Minister, resigned; they were not sacked
Former Finance Minister and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr Wale Edun, duly tendered his resignation from office, citing health reasons, before President Bola Ahmed Tinubu announced his replacement on Tuesday.
Also, the former Minister of Housing and Urban Development, Ahmed Musa Dangiwa, similarly resigned and thanked the President for the opportunity given him to serve in the Federal Executive Council.
Edun, who clocked 70 on Monday and has battled recent ill health, fittingly submitted his resignation letter on his birthday, thanking the President for the opportunity to serve Nigeria.
“It has been a pleasure and privilege to serve your administration and the Renewed Hope Agenda”, his letter read.
“Under your leadership, Nigeria has emerged stronger, more resilient and more internationally respected.
“I wish you and the administration every success in the future”, he wrote.
On Tuesday, before the Office of the Secretary of the Government of the Federation announced his departure from the Cabinet, Edun paid a valedictory visit to the President at the Villa. He held an hour-long discussion with the president and then left to focus on his private businesses.
Dangiwa, an architect, previously served as the managing director of the Federal Mortgage Bank between 2015 and 2022, as well as Secretary to the Katsina State Government, before President Tinubu appointed him as housing minister in August 2023.
Edun, an economist and investment banker, served as Lagos State commissioner for finance between 1999 and 2004, during the tenure of then Governor Bola Tinubu.
Before then, he worked from 1980 to 1986 at Chase Merchant Bank (later Continental) in Lagos. He joined the World Bank in September 1986 through the elite Young Professionals program, where he worked on economic and financial packages for several countries in Latin America and the Caribbean.
In 1989, he co-founded Investment Banking & Trust Company Limited (now Stanbic IBTC) and served as executive director. In 1994, he founded Denham Management Limited, which has since become the Chapelhill Denham Group. He served as chairman from 2008 to 2021.
President Tinubu has expressed deep appreciation to Edun and Dangiwa for their dedicated service and significant contributions to the administration’s economic reform programme and wished them continued success in their future endeavours.
In the same vein, the President has urged the new Minister of Finance, Taiwo Oyedele, to consolidate ongoing reforms and advance the administration’s fiscal and economic objectives with renewed focus, discipline, and innovation.
President Tinubu will shortly send the ministerial nominee for housing, Muttaqha Rabe Darma, also from Katsina, like Dangiwa, to the Senate for confirmation.

Thrilled to share some amazing pictures of my interview with FRANCE 24 . I was interviewed by award winning international journalist Yassin Ciyow in Ibadan.

At a local mobile shop in Nigeria today 🇳🇬 📲
It’s easy to forget how much of the market still runs on feature phones until you’re standing right in front of shelves full of them. This was real market research: seeing what people actually buy, what they can afford, and what they trust for everyday communication and money 💸 ⚡
Feature phones are still doing the heavy lifting in many communities:
• they’re affordable and durable
• they work in low-bandwidth conditions
• they’re familiar and easy to use
That’s where Sorted fits in, making it possible to hold and send Bitcoin and USDt even on feature phones 📲 💙

Feature phones are underestimated, not outdated 📲
For millions across Africa, these devices are the only way to access the internet, and with Sorted, they are becoming gateways to Web3 🙌
Sorted makes Bitcoin and USDt accessible across feature phones and low-powered smartphones enabling people to hold and move money without relying on expensive hardware or traditional banking access 💙

UPDATE:
A major new development emerging in Nigeria to complement the National Blockchain Policy: a Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (VARA).
The draft VARA White Paper insists this is not meant to be yet another @NigeriaGov agency, but instead a coordinating framework for existing agencies already involved in the regulation of virtual assets.
So the goals include coordination and harmonisation of regulation, and increased formalisation of the ecosystem. Outlines opportunities for innovation (which probably means startups/entrepreneurs should be paying attention).

Blockchain is everywhere – but not in Nigerian law schools. @CardaMika and @SenatorIhenyen say legal education must catch up to handle smart contracts, DeFi disputes, and digital asset regulations.
Read my latest story for more on why such education is crucial for lawyers.
