@ShehuSani Your IQ is low. Their opponents instigated an unwarranted litigation and they have to use the court to stop it.

Uthman Isa Tochukwu, Esq, ACIArb.
I used to be an outdoor person, like I am always outside but after marriage, I hardly find reason to go out except it is very very necessary. Most times, I can stay indoor for the whole weekend.

@el_bonga Ordinarily true but not in the Nigerian context where law-makers are allocated funds from the budget for "constituency projects".

Mr. El-Bonga@el_bonga·
This is one of the problems we have to address in Arewa. Lawmakers aren’t the ones to fix transformers, boreholes etc. for you. You have the Governor,Commissioner,Local Government Chairman and even Councillors to pick it up to those in question. You’ve KAEDCO officials as well.

@B_ELRUFAI Good day Honourable Sir, I am a resident of your ward. Our community has been without power for weeks due to a faulty transformer. This is seriously affecting our daily lives and businesses. We kindly request your urgent intervention to fix or replace the transformer

@elnathan_john Embarrassment them ? Nah, they have no iota of shame to be embarrassed. It requires some element of decency to feel embarrassed.

@kayodebakre8 It can be proven beyond reasonable doubt. The email and phone number can be linked to him and verified through the telco.

It's possible Prof Josh is speaking the truth. But if he was indeed the owner of that account, nothing will make him confess. Admittance would mean resigning. And there is nothing that can prove beyond every reasonable doubt that he is the one. But conscience is an open wound

@Mr_Sprime Once you advance the view that there is Riba on fiat currency and muslims should avoid interest on fiat currency, then you are impliedly canvassing that muslims should not partake in the formal economy.

‘Latunji ✨✨@Mr_Sprime·
I’ve been seeing tweets directed at Muslims/Muslimahs who announced that they’ve joined UBA Bank, calling it haram (no arguments). However, what is the punishment for those of us who work in liberal firms who actively practice Riba in their investments? During MPRs, companies report revenue from sales and investment (interest). Remember that the source of income of all companies is Debt+Equity. 90% of those debts are Riba debts.

@ogundamisi INEC is now a unit under the Presidency. The "I" in its acronym no longer stands for "Independent". It has been subsumed into the Presidency. Baba sope politics ...

It’s honestly comforting to see the Nigerian Presidency and our ever “independent” electoral body working this closely. The notice that INEC Chairman Amupitan does not have a social media account was well coordinated. INEC and the Presidency jointly circulating the rebuttal. 👍🏽
Daddy D.O🇳🇬@DOlusegun

PRESS STATEMENT INEC CHAIRMAN HAS NO ACCOUNT ON X, DISREGARD PARTISAN FABRICATIONS The attention of the Office of the Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), has been drawn to a malicious and coordinated campaign of calumny circulating on social media. The false claim alleges that the INEC Chairman, Prof. Joash Amupitan, SAN, has, in the past, endorsed a partisan post on the platform X (formerly Twitter). The Commission wishes to state categorically that this allegation is entirely baseless, a total fabrication, and a figment of the imagination of its purveyors. For the avoidance of doubt, the INEC Chairman does not own or operate any personal account on X. He has at no time engaged in partisan commentary, nor has he ever associated himself with any political leaning or activity in his private or public capacity. This contrived X post is a desperate attempt to impugn the integrity and neutrality of the Chairman at a critical period when the Commission is focused on significant electoral reforms and preparations for upcoming polls. It is a needless distraction designed to stir public distrust in the electoral umpire. Beyond this partisan mischief, the Commission is aware that cybercriminals have been on the prowl, utilising fake social media accounts in the Chairman’s name to defraud unsuspecting Nigerians. We wish to place it on record that several of such fraudulent accounts had been identified and reported to security agencies in the past. This latest fabrication is merely a continuation of a criminal pattern aimed at exploiting the Commission’s profile for illicit gains. The Commission will not fold its arms while the character of its leadership is being assassinated by digital imposters and mischief-makers. We wish to notify the public that we are working in close collaboration with relevant security agencies and cyber-intelligence units to track and identify the individuals or groups behind this identity theft and misinformation. Let it be clearly understood that the Commission will ensure that these imposters face the full wrath of the law. Identity theft and the dissemination of deepfake or forged social media interactions are criminal offenses under the Cybercrimes Act. Those responsible for this mischief will be tracked and prosecuted to serve as a deterrent to others who believe the digital space is a safe haven for criminality. The general public is hereby urged to disregard this falsehood in its entirety. We will continue to disseminate official information regarding the Commission and the Chairman’s activities only through our verified institutional channels and formal press statements. The Commission remains undeterred and fully committed to its mandate of delivering free, fair, and credible elections for all Nigerians. E-Signed: Adedayo Oketola Chief Press Secretary/Media Adviser to the INEC Chairman Abuja, Nigeria. 10th April, 2026

@SirJarus Perhaps, he meant the N100k is net of tax i.e. the state will gross it and offset the tax chargeable.

Can a governor declare an allowance tax-free if Nigeria Tax Act says the allowance is taxable? To the best of my tax knowledge, what can be done is bear the tax (ie pay the tax on their behalf). But a governor doesn't have power to rule an allowance as tax free. Matter of fact, the old Personal Income Tax and the new Nigeria Tax Act that governs taxation of employment income is a law made by the NASS. Even if a state can legislate on a matter, it has to be through State HOA passage, not a governor's fiat. Except the details here are incorrect, a governor cannot declare allowance or any income tax free.

BREAKING NEWS: The Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, has approved a N200,000 increase in doctors’ monthly salaries, alongside a N100,000 tax-free allowance for house officers, to attract and retain medical professionals in the state.

If Benjamin Netanyahu assassinates the Pope today, the worst that will happen is EU leaders will release a strongly worded tweet expressing concern. Russia and China will veto something. Nigeria Christians will explain why its understandable because something something in the Bible. At least I'm sure the Iranians will close the Strait of Hormuz and attempt a fight on behalf of the Vatican.
