Edun gone: Nigeria’s new lease on life It was good news coming too late; but, better late than never. Edun’s appointment as Minister of Finance and later elevation to Coordinating Minister was the cardinal blunder committed by President Tinubu. It was all based on sentiments and the unchecked penchant for wanting to reward loyalists – even with appointments underserved. The Minister of Finance in any leading nation is not a good accountant or book-keeper. Nigerian leaders should have learnt that from the experience with Buhari’s selection of Ms Kemi Adeosun, 2015-2018 and  Zainab Ahmed, 2018-2023, as his Ministers of Finance during his eight disastrous years in office 2015-2023. Two more incompetent Finance Ministers will be difficult to imagine. Tinubu fell into the trap of appointing someone he could trust, instead of the best possible candidate for the job. Nigeria is far poorer for it. vanguardngr.com/2026/05/edun-g…

SOCIAL MEDIA IS NOT A BATTLEFIELD COMMAND – WHY THE NIGERIAN ARMY’S ACTION AGAINST JUSTICE CRACK IS A NATIONAL SECURITY IMPERATIVE By Tijjani Tanko INTRODUCTION: NATION AT WAR CANNOT AFFORD A SECOND FRONT Nigeria is not at peace. Across the North East, North West, and North Central, our armed forces are locked in daily combat against terrorists and bandits. Thousands of soldiers are deployed forward, often without rotation, facing an enemy that watches every word on social media. In this environment, the difference between “free speech” and “subversive act” is not academic – it is life and death. The Nigerian Army recently arrested a social media influencer, Justice Mark Chidiebere (known as “Justice Crack”), and handed him to civil authorities. His crime: systematically spreading content designed to turn soldiers against their commanders over welfare issues – beyond legitimate criticism into active incitement of insubordination. Public outcry has followed, with many calling the Army a silencer of whistleblowers. This statement argues the opposite: the Army acted lawfully, proportionately, and in the highest interest of national security. WHAT JUSTICE CRACK ACTUALLY DID On 2 May 2026, the Army announced the arrest of Justice Crack alongside several soldiers. Investigations showed he had built direct communication lines with frontline troops. He did not merely amplify complaints about rations or equipment – he actively urged soldiers to question their commanders’ legitimacy, refuse orders, and post videos attacking military hierarchy. Some soldiers admitted receiving small payments to share internal grievances that should have gone through proper channels. Crucially, the Army did not court‑martial the influencer. He was handed over to civilian police for normal criminal prosecution. That is not military dictatorship; that is constitutional democracy where no one – influencer or general – is above the law. WHY THE CRITICISM IS MISPLACED AND DANGEROUS First, critics confuse “whistleblowing” with “subversion.” A real whistleblower reports specific, verifiable wrongdoing to lawful authorities – Defence Headquarters, Human Rights Commission, or the media with evidence. Justice Crack did none of that. He broadcast unverified, one‑sided narratives meant to make soldiers feel abandoned. In a war zone, that is not transparency; it is psychological warfare. Second, timing is everything. Isolated welfare lapses exist in every army – including the US, UK, and Russia. But during war, amplifying those lapses in real time to combat units hands the enemy a propaganda tool. Terrorist groups already use such posts to claim “the Nigerian Army is starving” or “commanders don’t care,” lowering troop morale and encouraging desertion. Third, the Army acted with restraint. No soldier was shot. No journalist was jailed. The influencer was detained, investigated, and transferred to civilian police – exactly the same process for any civilian who incites factory workers to sabotage production during wartime. Why should the military be held to a lower standard? Fourth, the slippery slope argument cuts both ways. Critics fear any arrest will clamp down on dissent. But the greater risk is inaction: if the military does nothing while influencers systematically undermine command authority, the result will be crumbling discipline, friendly fire, and avoidable deaths. Which is more humane – arresting one influencer for investigation, or allowing a thousand soldiers to die because they lost faith in their leaders? THE HARSH REALITY OF WARTIME MORALE Military psychology is clear: a soldier who believes his nation has abandoned him hesitates. In counter‑insurgency, hesitation kills. The difference between a successful ambush and a fatal one is often split seconds. When a frontline soldier spends his rest time watching a viral video accusing his commander of stealing his meal allowance, trust in the chain of command erodes.

If Peter Obi can contemplate switching parties with ease after pledging his loyalty, what makes you think he won't switch his campaigns promises if he has the chance? Remember he doesn't know how to contain internal crisis.

Kogi women’s group has purchased the APC senatorial nomination form for former Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, ahead of the Kogi Central senatorial election. Bello, who is also emerging as the APC consensus candidate, is expected to face Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan of the PDP in the 2027 general election.

The Federal Government has begun construction of the Lekki Conservation flyover. I’ve told you before,when the President is done with the road network on the Island, it will be something else. He knows what he came for no be chochocho. Later today, I’ll show you a road he’s constructing on a mountain. That alone will tell you the level of commitment. President Tinubu is actively building the road network on the Island. I’ve been saying this, especially for those who are not around to see it firsthand. PSA: if you notice any roads that need resurfacing or areas that have been overlooked, Immediately call attention to them. This particular President is responsive unlike the past presidents. We hit Jackpot with him ✌️😎 🎥: Construction of the Lekki Conservation flyover.🚧

@abikedabiri @NigeriaMFA Foolish people. The same way you treat the ibos with so much hatred and ethnic slur, that is how South Africa is treating Nigerians over there. They are not different from Remi Tinubu, Oba of Lagos, MC Oluomo, Bayo Onanuga, Abike Dabiri etc
