“I look back & I realized that one of my w0rst mistakes is venturing into rap music in 2009. Because I discovered that I was probably the worst rapper ever. And the album I dropped then was the worst album of the decade. It was really a humbling experience, even though I enjoyed it in a way. From that experience I learned that I shouldn’t do things just because I see people doing them.” — Legendary Nigerian actor, Jim Iyke

2027: IF INEC CONDUCTS FREE ELECTION, OBI DOESN’T NEED COALITION AGAINST TINUBU – NLC Peter Obi, a former governor of Anambra State does not need a coalition to defeat Bola Tinubu as president, the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) has said.Nigerian political art prints The Congress said it important to note that once the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) conducts a free and fair election, the 2027 presidential election would be a workover for Obi. The Deputy President of the NLC Political Commission, Theophilus Ndubuaku noted that the coalition currently being championed by a former vice president, Atiku Abubakar and Nasir El-Rufai means nothing to Obi. He also dismissed speculations that Peter Obi plans to join the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) ahead of the 2027 polls. Ndubuaku describing PDP as a crisis-ridden party said Obi was already coasting to victory before the controversial glitches that gave room for the All Progressives Congress to clinch the seat. “Peter Obi doesn’t need any coalition to win the 2027 presidential election. He is a sellable candidate. “If you recall, he was already coasting to victory in the 2023 elections before the controversial glitches. He even defeated Tinubu in his own stronghold in Lagos, which shows Nigerians want him in power.” For as long as INEC conducts a free and fair election, he will win. He can also leverage his local and international connections to make it happen,” Ndubuaku said. #news

E-MONEY RELEASED AFTER EFCC INTERROGATION Popular businessman and socialite Emeka Okonkwo, known widely as E-Money, has been released by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) after being questioned for several hours. E-Money was picked up by EFCC officials on Monday night at his home in Omole, Lagos, and taken to their office in Abuja. His arrest was connected to allegations of naira abuse and mishandling of foreign currency. Authorities say he was seen spraying US dollars at a public event — an action that goes against the Foreign Exchange Act. EFCC has recently increased efforts to enforce currency regulations, especially since 2024, citing Section 21 of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Act which bans the abuse of the naira and defacing of foreign currency. After his release on Tuesday night, E-Money addressed his fans through a video posted on Instagram. The post showed him sitting in an elegant room with a gospel song playing in the background. He wrote, “No tension, everywhere good. I see all your love and support. God bless you all.” #news #politics

JUST IN: Nigerian government declares Thursday public holiday for Workers’ Day... #Aidee #News

SAD REALITY 🤦‍♂️💔 Did you know Davido was the only major artiste who showed up for the Headies Awards? Many of the top artistes didn’t bother to attend simply because it’s a Nigerian award. Even Shallipopi, who won an award, reportedly rejected his own category. Yet these same artistes are ready to spend millions traveling abroad just to attend the Grammys. The same Shallipopi who rejected a Headies win would gladly accept a Grammy nod even as a background act. This is one of Africa’s biggest problems: We often fail to value our own until it’s praised by the West. If it’s made in Africa, it’s "not enough" — but once it’s foreign, we worship it. Moral of the story: This is why Davido deserves respect. He left America, came back for the Headies, stayed till the very end, and honored his roots. God bless 001! Cc: EMMACK

BREAKING: Nigerian banks increase SMS alert fee to N6 over new tariffs... #Aidee #News #Breakingnews #Business

Your child deserves sunlight. Freedom. Joy. The healing power of outdoor play. But freedom without protection can be dangerous. Because sometimes what’s disturbing your child… Isn’t “just growing up.” It’s worms. Yes, worms. If your child is: —Grinding their teeth at night —Scratching their bum constantly —Bedwetting again after being trained —Always tired or cranky —Struggling to speak —Restless at night —Showing strange behavior… You need to stop assuming it’s “normal.” It might be parasites — worms living rent-free in their gut. And they didn’t just get there by magic. They came through: —Dirty hands —Unwashed fruit —Sachet water —And yes — walking barefoot on contaminated soil Here’s the harsh truth: Most Nigerian children are exposed to worms before age 5. And while routine deworming is good, it’s not enough. Because if your child is still eating junk, drinking bad water, or lacking gut protection… The worms will come back. Again and again. And each time, they steal more: —Iron —Zinc —Vitamin A —Growth —Sleep —Brain power So no, your child isn’t just being difficult. They may be hosting something that’s draining them from the inside. Let them play outside. But protect their gut. Because a sick gut creates a sick child. Tag a parent who needs to read this. And share this post — you might save a child’s future.

Today, I had the honour of welcoming the Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ikechukwu Ogalla, to Benue State as he came to commiserate with us over the recent tragic attacks by armed herders. As part of our continued efforts to restore peace and protect the lives of our people, I am pleased to announce that arrangements have been finalized for the establishment of a Naval Operational Base in Makurdi, which will strengthen our internal security architecture and enhance the Navy’s capacity to respond swiftly to threats within our communities. In support of this vital initiative, the Benue State Government has graciously donated 179 hectares of land on the banks of the River Benue to the Nigerian Navy for the establishment of this Special Operations Command. This development is the result of sustained engagement. Recall that I personally visited the Chief of Naval Staff last year to make this demand and advocate for an increased security presence in Benue, which he granted. I am deeply encouraged to see that work has already commenced. This is not just a win for Benue; it is a powerful reminder that when we lead with vision and unity, progress follows. I thank the Chief of Naval Staff and the Federal Government for their continued support in securing our territorial integrity.
