@SenSharafaAlli @officialABAT Dear Senator,this is politics taken too far for you not to acknowledge the effort of Oyo State Govt in the rescue of these Children. Not sure how u will feel if u were the Governor of Oyo State at this time and you are neglected as you have done now.

On the Rescue of Oriire Pupils and Teachers I commend President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR @officialABAT , and the nation's security agencies for rescuing the abducted pupils and teachers of Oriire Local Government Area. I also praise the arrest of eight suspected kidnappers and the neutralisation of some members of the criminal gang during the operation. This is a major victory against criminality. It demonstrates the renewed commitment of President Tinubu's administration to safeguarding lives and property across the country. This operation has rekindled hope among Nigerians. It shows that the security architecture under the Tinubu administration is becoming more proactive, intelligence-driven and result-oriented. The swift response by the security agencies reflects the effectiveness of inter-agency collaboration in combating insecurity. I salute the gallant officers and men of all the security agencies. Their professionalism, courage and sacrifice made the operation possible. I urge security agencies not to relent until every member of the criminal syndicate is apprehended and brought to justice. I also call for diligent prosecution of the arrested suspects, to serve as a deterrent to others engaged in kidnapping and other violent crimes. I am grateful that the pupils and teachers have regained their freedom, and I pray for their quick recovery from this traumatic experience. I urge residents of Oyo State, and Nigerians generally, to continue supporting security agencies with credible and timely information. Security remains a collective responsibility. I reaffirm my commitment to policies and initiatives that will strengthen security and protect lives, to create a peaceful environment for socio-economic development in Oyo State and across Nigeria.

@biodunaoyebanji Opeee o Oga Gomina for the President's approval of the Construction of the Ado- Ijan- Ikole Rd. It's long overdue. Please, let's keep our eyes on the ball until the Construction is fully achieved. God bless you.

Today, I met with the Honourable Minister of Works, Senator David Umahi, to review the progress of critical infrastructure projects approved by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for Ekiti State. Our strategic alignment with the Federal Government is vital to transforming our landscape and unlocking new economic opportunities for our people. I am particularly thrilled to share the good news of the President’s approval for the commencement of reconstruction works on the Ado-Ijan-Ilumoba-Ikole road. Our profound thanks go to Mr. President for this intervention, and I sincerely appreciate the Honourable Minister for his steadfast support of our infrastructure update efforts. Together, we are building a more connected and prosperous Ekiti. #BAO #EkitiProgress #InfrastructureDevelopment #RenewedHope #SharedProsperity

@DanzelUzo @Onsogbu U are pretty

@Onsogbu Let's see that of your principal.

The date on Peter Obi’s university certificate is 1984, while the date on his GCE is 1986. Does it mean he went to university before going to secondary school? This is still the person who mocked Tinubu for certificate forgery. Politicians, eeh! They will never practice what they preach.

@nimc_ng This is not true. Not sure there were proper testing to confirm the effectiveness, robustness and the user friendly nature of this App because I can't understand why the App will be saying that my photo in NIN can't be authenticated now.

Downloading your NIN Slip is quick and easy with the NINAuth App. Just follow these simple steps. whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vb… nimc.gov.ng #NewNIMCAct2026 #RenewedNIMCAct

@PeterObi I think you should rather put across and as well as encourage other Nigerians to put across mitigants to be incorporated in the Constitution to prevent such abuse or misuse. Thank you.

State Police: Commendable Step, but Disorderly Legislation Raises Concerns of Political Misuse The recent passage of the State Police Bill by the National Assembly marks a significant legislative milestone in addressing a long-standing demand of the Nigerian people. For years, many of us, alongside security experts and regional stakeholders, have consistently argued that a highly centralised policing structure is fundamentally unsuitable for a country as vast, diverse, and complex as Nigeria. However, the legislative and constitutional implementation appears shaky and raises legitimate concerns. The process should involve greater community participation. Policing should be more visible at the local government and community levels. The mechanism for passing the law appears highly disorganised, with no public hearing on such a sensitive issue. Indeed, the rush to enact the law without proper legislative procedures fuels suspicion among many observers about the political motives behind it. The greatest concern does not arise from logistical issues; it stems from history. There is a widespread, justifiable fear that state police forces could become instruments in the hands of governors. The suspicion is that a state-controlled police force could be weaponised to suppress political rivals, disrupt opposition rallies, and manipulate elections. For state policing to evolve from a risky political gamble into a genuine security solution, the law must not only permit states to establish police forces but also clearly provide for independent oversight bodies, such as a state-level Police Service Commission that is entirely free from executive influence, to ensure that policing serves the public interest rather than the interests of the ruling elite. Going by what Nigerians have seen so far, there is no guarantee that this administration can resist the temptation to take advantage of state policing to influence the 2027 general election by proxy. In view of that possibility and the danger it poses to the polity, it is necessary to defer its implementation until after the general election. A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

@PeterObi Sir,while I share your concerns on possible abuse and misuse of State Police by the State Governors, I don't agree with you that the implementation of this initiative that tries to make the country practice true Federalism should be deferred till after the 2027 Elections.

@AO1379 @woye1 Also, adequate attention should be paid to the State Roads. For the Road to ABUAD and the Agro Airport should be made motorable unlike what is presently. I don't know how we feel when all the People that flew in from Lagos and Abuja drove from d Airport through that Road

@woye1 Spot on. The Development is already more than 5 years old, so requires a review. Some of the work on urban development will start with Ado, watch out for collaboration with UN-Habitat. The other pillars are all in motion. The State is in excellent hands for 4 more years.

Agenda for @biodunaoyebanji our Brand New Gov of @ekitistategov 2: Congratulations for breaking the Jinx of second term in our beautiful state of Ekiti. 3: MASTERPLAN: -(a): Ekiti has a long-term overreaching 30-year Development Plan (2022-2050) along with sector-specific targeted development. -(b): It is time for the Gov to REVIEW this masterplan to align it with current realities. 4: God has been so good to you. So,lay a solid foundation to MOVE EKITI FORWARD than before. -(a): Key areas: Agriculture, Tourism, SAPZ, Converting Education knowledge to DOLLARS, Urban planning etc. 5: Commissioners: select the best hands to run the state. Less political considerations. 6: BAO 2.0 should be far far far better than BAO 1.0 7: Congratulations to Ekiti Kete. Election is over. The winner is Ekiti people. Support @biodunaoyebanji 8: Happy Father’s Day @AsiwajuOladimej @AO1379 @AbiolaOla11309 @ekknowledgezone @MopelolaLove1 @AriyoImmanuel @easydigita

@AO1379 @woye1 Oga Commissioner, please let State Govt focus on where she has comparative advantage which in this case is Agriculture. Let her encourage mechanised farming with the establishment of Farm Settlements as was the case in past in your town of Ikole & Orin.

@ProfitableMan1 Which one is RT Briscoe Money Market Fund?

Three money market funds are delivering over 20% returns in 2026. Here they are. RT Briscoe Money Market Fund leads at 20.87%, followed by Coronation Money Market Fund at 20.15% and DLM Money Market Fund at 20.12%. All three are delivering double the return of a typical savings account in Nigeria right now.

@ruffydfire Oga Rufai,I hope as a Yoruba man that you not unaware of this King Sunny Ade's song: ''Mojamosa la nmo akikanju loko, akikanju tomoja tio sa, iru won nii bogun boomi lo". A word they say is enough for the wise.

As a journalist for many years! I stand by my story that I release hours before the police finally released a statement! I have sources, Igboho played a role in the Adelabu sisters rescue! I have criticized Ighobo many times in the past. It doesn’t mean I will not criticize him in the future! On this, I stand by my story! For the propangandist and co, this is not to denigrate the police! This is stating information available at my disposal! For the wailers! I love your tears! Salty and lemon filled tears! Hahahah

@ruffydfire Rufai, please, always state the Title of your post

@ICAN_NGR Congrats ma. Wishing you a successful tenor.

@DapoAbiodunCON Happy birthday Omo Baba Teacher. Long Life and Prosperity in good health and soundness of mind.

Today, I celebrate with profound gratitude to Almighty God as I mark my 66th birthday anniversary and seven impactful years of purposeful service as Governor of Ogun State. The journey over the years has been one of responsibility, sacrifice, learning, and unwavering commitment to the growth and development of our dear state. I remain deeply humbled by the trust, support, prayers, and encouragement of the good people of Ogun State whose collective belief in our vision continues to inspire me daily. Together, we have continued to build a more prosperous, peaceful, and forward-looking Ogun State through strategic governance, infrastructural development, economic reforms, and people-centered initiatives. As I also reflect on my emergence as the All Progressives Congress (@OfficialAPCNg) Senatorial Candidate for Ogun East Senatorial District, I sincerely appreciate His Excellency, President @officialABAT, and the First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, CON, for their leadership, support, and encouragement. I also deeply appreciate Chief Olusegun Osoba, our revered party leaders, stakeholders, members of our great party, my family, friends, political associates, and the good people of Ogun State for their unwavering support, prayers, and confidence in my leadership over the years. I remain committed to continuing to serve with dedication, humility, and the fear of God. May Almighty God grant us greater strength, wisdom, peace, and continued progress as we build a stronger Ogun State and a better Nigeria together.

@OlayinkaLere Lere, baba Okemesi,it is Esure, not Ensure. You as an Ekiti ma shouldn't be seen to be misspelling the name of an Ekiti town. Thank you.

@InibeheEffiong The Law,but the Moderator Jeffy,intervened on your behalf and explained to the man that you were expressing your professional opinion and thus should not engage in any personal attack. Jeffy also afforded you the right of reply.

This man from ADC came on Channels TV tonight to insult me unprovoked for expressing my candid view that it would have been better for the David Mark-led group to go before the Federal High Court to show cause why injunction should not be granted, than appealing against the order to show cause. I stated that this would have saved precious time, and that after traversing the appellate courts, the substantive matter remains undecided. That’s all I said, and this man who came to represent ADC on the show became bellicose, arrogant and disrespectful. He started insulting me.
