  • When they were in power, former First Lady Aisha Buhari was in a constant battle for control of her husband and power with the power brokers around her husband.

    Apparently, her late husband trusted a group of cronies led by his nephew Mamman Daura, Sabiu Tunde, and the late Abba Kyari, who were in charge and were the de facto presidents.

    Thus, they were in charge and determined who got what.

    That Emiefele was so powerful because of the power they allowed him as CBN governor.

    According to some schools of thought, if the late Abba Kyari were to be alive, he would not have allowed the current president, Asiwaju, to emerge as the APC presidential flag bearer, let alone win the election.

    Before they left power, Buhari's nephew, Sabiu Tunde, was the richest young Nigerian under 40.

    Aisha Buhari was relegated to the background and was told by her husband that she belonged in the kitchen when she complained.

    She fought, she wailed, and she became a podcaster at one point.

    She would give orders as the wife of a sitting president, but Mamman Daura or Sabiu Tunde would overrule her, knowing nothing would happen.

    Aisha Buhari's case was made worse by the fact that Buhari comes from a feudalist culture that has no regard for women.

    Aisha Buhari and Tunde Sabiu once had an intense clash at Aso Rock that had her ADC shooting at him; the man scaled the fence of Aso Rock, running for his life.

    As expected, the late Buhari sided with his nephew, Sabiu Tunde, against his wife, and Aisha's security operatives, who attempted to kill Tunde, were picked up and arrested by the then Inspector General of Police.

    Aisha had to come on social media to appeal to the IGP to release her security operatives because she was powerless.

    Tunde gave an order for their arrest, and there was nothing she could do to reverse it.

    Frustrated by the humiliation she received at the hands of the power cabal, Aisha had to relocate from Nigeria to Dubai before moving to the UK.

    The power cabal even made attempts to marry a second wife for the late Buhari at the height of their fight with Aisha, just to humiliate her further.

    Buhari disrespected his wife and allowed wolves to ravage her in a way that Tinubu has not done to his wife, Remi.

    Today, Muhammadu Buhari is no more, but before he died, he was nursed and taken care of by Aisha Buhari and the kids on his sickbed.

    Sabiu Tunde, who was fond of humiliating her, was nowhere to be found.

    When he died, it was still the same Aisha and the kids who brought his corpse home.

    A lesson for my generation of men: when you become rich and powerful, take care of your wife and kids; bring them close, more than any other person, no matter how loyal the person is to you.

    Don't allow a third party to come between you and your wife because of money and power.

    When the chips are down, your family is all that you have left.

    Every other person will move on. I have seen this happen again and again.

  • Russian Embassy comment on the Business Day article (July 15, 2025)

    We took note of the article How Russia wins friends and influences people by Nicholas Shubitz published in Business Day on July 11, 2025, and found it thought-provoking and partially reflective of the realities of getting education abroad – be it in Russia, USA, China, Europe or elsewhere. Yet, one important issue is missing.

    Education has traditionally been one of the most vibrant sectors in #RussiaAfrica relations. Since the early days of African independence, hundreds of thousands of professionals – doctors, engineers, teachers, technicians, and others – have received training in Russia. After completing these studies, most of the graduates return to their home countries, where they contribute to building a better future for their communities.

    We firmly believe that Africa is not, and should not be, an arena for geopolitical rivalry.

    As President Vladimir Putin emphasized in his article “Russia and Africa: Joining Efforts for Peace, Progress and a Successful Future,” our country has consistently adhered to the principle of “AFRICAN SOLUTIONS TO AFRICAN PROBLEMS,” standing in solidarity with African nations in their pursuit of self-determination, justice, and sovereign rights. Unlike some external actors, we have never sought to impose our values, governance models, or development paths on our African partners.

    Our engagement with African countries is guided by the Russia-Africa Partnership Forum Action Plan for 2023-2026, adopted at the highest level. This strategic document outlines broad cooperation in numerous areas, including security, trade, investment, agriculture, science, culture, and – critically – education.

    Shane Shauke, a graduate of a Russian University, current medical practitioner and representative of the Russian African Centre of University Studies (RACUS) in SA, shares his experience:
    “As a South African from the rural Limpopo province, I had the opportunity to study in Russia. Many of us who studied there were drawn not by political influence, but by the accessibility of quality education – especially in fields like medicine.

    Russia’s investment in international students, particularly from Africa, certainly fosters goodwill. It’s equally important to acknowledge that the relationship is not one-sided: African students often return home with valuable knowledge and skills.

    Russia may gain friends through education, but those friendships are rooted in complex human experiences, not just political strategy.”

  • Iliyasu Isah’s NNPC Story: From Driver to Family Hero

    When Iliyasu Isah joined NNPC Ltd. in 2012 as a container truck driver, he had no idea where this journey would take him. Neither could he have imagined that a career behind the wheel would not only transform his life, but also reshape his values, his pride in family, and his belief in the potential of women.

    Park that.

    Over the years, Iliyasu moved up to become a driver for senior management. In his words, "All my bosses have been women and that experience changed my life.”

    He was raised in a culture in which sons were more celebrated than daughters, so Iliyasu silently wrestled with feelings of inadequacy as the father of three girls. But something began to shift in the course of his years working for strong, intelligent, female leaders.

    “They changed how I see everything… I now look at my daughters and feel nothing but pride,” he said. And rightly so. His eldest is 22 and studying Cyber Security at the university. The second daughter is 20 and is studying Public Administration. The baby in the family is 14, finishing secondary school, with big dreams of her own.

    Iliyasu shared that because of NNPC Ltd., he has been able to train his children and many others in his extended family. He says it is an honour to be in a position to provide, but it’s also his responsibility as a first son.

    He has become a pillar in his extended family; an image of what opportunity and dedication can produce.

    “NNPC Ltd. has done everything for my family… Many people in my village have eaten from the fruits of my labour with this company. I will always be thankful,” he said.

    I asked him what else he was thankful for. He smiled. Nothing prepared him for what happened at the handing over ceremony of thirty-five (35) hybrid Compressed Natural Gas-powered buses to the Presidential Initiative on Compressed Natural Gas (Pi-CNG). (You can read the story when you visit https://nnpcgroup.com/insights/nnpc-ltd-donates-35-cng-buses-to-presidential-initiative-on-cng-restates-commitment-to-cleaner-sustainable-fuel-alternative). The Group Chief Executive Officer (GCEO), Engr. Bashir Bayo Ojulari, boarded his bus with VIP guests in attendance.

    “I’ve never come close to any GCEO…. I’ve never been on GCEO’s floor,” Iliyasu said, his voice full of emotion. “But the GCEO shook my hand. Looked me in the eye to greet me. I’m so happy.”

    That handshake spoke volumes. It affirmed what he has seen along his journey here: Every role matters. Everyone matters. Everyone can be seen.

    Leadership isn’t male or female. It’s human.

  • EFCC Takes Anti-corruption Campaign to School Children in Ilorin

    The Ilorin Zonal Directorate Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Monday, July 7, 2025, took its anti-corruption campaign to the pupils of Lightway Nursery and Primary School, Tanke, Ilorin, Kwara State.

    Ayodele Babatunde, Head, Public Affairs Department, Ilorin Directorate of the EFCC, who enlightened the pupils at the event, spoke to them on the meaning of corruption, its different shades, harmful effects and how everyone, including children, can contribute to building a corruption-free Nigeria.

    "Corruption is simply doing the wrong thing, especially when it affects others or the country. It includes vices such as cheating, lying and stealing, he said. He noted that children have a role to play in shaping a better future even at their young age. "You can avoid corruption by always telling the truth, doing your homework without copying from others, refusing to steal or cheat, observing honesty, discipline, integrity, and patriotism and respecting rules at home and in school,” he said.

    Babatunde further encouraged the pupils to ensure that they grow up as good citizens who love their country and reject acts that can harm its development.

    The interaction featured questions from the pupils and a pledge from them to become anti-corruption ambassadors in their school and homes.

    The outreach is part of the EFCC’s strategy to instill a culture of integrity and accountability in children pursuant to the Commission’s anti-corruption prevention mandate through sensitization and advocacy.

  • MY LETTER TO THE WORLD ON
    HOW TO ALLEVIATE WORLD PROBLEMS IN OUR CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY.

    In contemporary society, a multitude of abnormalities persist on a daily and nightly basis, spanning generations. The continued practice of misguided belief systems prompts the inquiry: how can we terminate this chaos? Consider the following: the concept of racial superiority is fundamentally flawed. Individuals from all ethnic backgrounds require assistance from one another. We are designed to coexist, sharing resources and celebrating diversity. It is apparent that life's offerings are not exclusive to one race; discoveries and innovations are intended to benefit humanity collectively. Ultimately, nothing in life is solely reserved for one group.

    1) The reality that I emphasize in my messages to the world is that all humans are connected and originate from a single source. What constitutes a better life, which is comprised of everything that brings us happiness and fulfillment? Through my examination of life, I have come to realize that we all share the same fundamental needs. Moreover, I have found that even before humanity came into existence, everything required for a fulfilling life was already in place. We do not need to be selfish or harmful; our desires can be attained through love and mutual respect. Africa, America, China, and India are all valuable contributors to the world, and failure to recognize this is a sign of ignorance that requires attention.

    (2) Failure to acknowledge the truth about our perspectives on other races: It will astonish you to learn about the self-perceptions of Chinese, Indian, Black, and White individuals. Instead of collaborating and educating ourselves about the realities of life, some races attempt to conceal, destroy other cultures, and manipulate them to perpetuate exploitation. However, this behavior will not persist indefinitely, and eventually, the suppressed and exploited individuals will acquire the capacity to rise up against their oppressors, leading to a reversal of consequences. I emphasized that it is foolish for any race to consider itself superior to others; we are one, one world, one God, one humanity, we want a good life, a beautiful earth, highlighting that the world's resources are sufficient for humanity to share, and we will never exhaust them.

    (3)Every individual has free will, except for minors who require supervision. So-called international laws that supposedly aim to improve the world appear to favor one race over others. In response to the corona virus, Africans developed their own solutions, but these required approval from the World Health Organization, resulting in delays pending WHO validation. In Nigeria, many companies are closing because overseas companies do not want local solution providers to coexist with their own, so they use their collective power to stop it. If we are to achieve peace and progress, we must work together, love one another, and share with one another. Otherwise, a time will come when no human can stop the nemesis of our corrupt attitudes. Interestingly, the most corrupt country in the world, which is also ranked as the most curious, questions why it is not listed among the corrupt nations. We must allow every country and race to decide what is good for them, as nobody should rule the world due to the lack of human capacity, which only the creator possesses.

    To summarize, the notion that one human being is superior to another is a falsehood, as is the idea that we do not need each other's support in life. Additionally, it is a misconception that any race can exist independently of others. It is also untrue that we do not all require the necessities of life, which bring fulfillment. It is an established fact that humanity shares a common origin. Consequently, we must work collaboratively with love, respect each other's cultural diversity, and share the resources provided by our creators for our mutual benefit.

  • National Cathedral site to be
    Converted into National Cultural Convention Centre

    The government of Ghana has announced plans to convert the stalled National Cathedral project into a National Cultural Convention Centre (NCCC), positioning it as the flagship hub for Ghana’s burgeoning creative economy and cultural diplomacy efforts.

    According to a policy document under the new 24-hour economy initiative for culture, creative arts and tourism dubbed “SH0W24”, the NCCC will be established in partnership with the AfCFTA Secretariat and is expected to become Africa’s leading venue for international exhibitions, film festivals, trade shows and summits.

    Under SH0W24, the centre will serve as the crown jewel in Ghana’s creative economy infrastructure. It is projected to host large-scale events and exhibitions that will place Ghana firmly on the global cultural map.

    Note : This project seems to be similar to the Accra convention centre project, which was ongoing under the previous administration at the trade faire site at LA. We hope the Accra convention centre has not been stopped and having two convention centres will not be a bad idea.

  • Ghana to irrigate 2 million hectares of land for agriculture

    His Excellency President John Dramani Mahama announced plans to irrigate over 2 million hectares of land under his 24-Hour Economy program, specifically through the "Grow 24" agenda. This initiative aims to revitalize Ghana's agriculture sector through sustained and technology-driven interventions.

    The Feed Ghana Programme focuses on:

    - Modernizing agriculture: Boosting food production, reducing imports, and creating jobs
    - Key interventions:

    - Promotion of Smart Agriculture: Establishing Farmer Service Centers nationwide for equipment, quality materials, money, market connections, and training

    - Grains and Legumes Development Project: Scaling up maize, rice, soybean, and sorghum production for local consumption, agro-processing, and export

    - Vegetable Development Project: Promoting controlled environment farming using greenhouse technology and urban agriculture to reduce vegetable imports

    - Farm banks or land banks: Creating designated irrigable zones to support young agricultural entrepreneurs

    The Feed Ghana Programme was launched on April 12, 2025, in Techiman, Bono East Region, as part of President Mahama's efforts to transform the agricultural sector and promote economic development.

  • THE NIGERIA POLICE FORCE WORKING PERFECTLY ACCORDING TO ITS MANDATE

    Your statement reflects a critical perspective on the role and function of the Nigerian police force, which has been a topic of significant debate and discussion in Nigeria over the years. Here are some points that contextualize this view:

    1. Historical Context
    - {Colonial Roots} The Nigerian police force was established during colonial rule primarily to serve the interests of the colonial government, primarily for control and oppression rather than protection and service to the citizens.
    - {Post-Colonial Legacy} After Nigeria attained independence in 1960, the police inherited a structure and culture that often prioritized political control over public safety.

    2. Public Perception and Trust
    - {Corruption} There are widespread reports of corruption within the police force, where bribes and extortion have become common practices. This undermines public trust and leads to a perception of the police acting against the interests of the community.
    - {Human Rights Violations} Numerous instances of brutality, extrajudicial killings (notably by units like the now-disbanded SARS - Special Anti-Robbery Squad), and abusive behavior towards the citizens have contributed to this negative perception.

    3. The Safer Nigeria Initiative
    - {Protests and Advocacy} Movements such as #EndSARS have highlighted the grievances of citizens against police misconduct and have called for reform. These protests bring to light the demands of Nigerian citizens for a police force that protects rather than oppresses.
    - {Calls for Reform} There have been various calls from civil society for reforming the police, focusing on better training, accountability, and community policing as a means of restoring faith in the force.

    4. Societal Impact
    - {Fear and Distrust} The perception of the police as an entity working against the masses creates an atmosphere of fear and distrust. This can lead to underreporting of crimes and reluctance to cooperate with law enforcement.
    - {Impact on Crime Rates} Distrust in the police may deter effective policing and thus contribute to rising crime rates as communities feel unprotected.

    5. The Need for Reform
    - {Community Policing} There is a growing recognition that policing needs to be community-focused, transparent, and accountable to the people it serves.
    - {Legislative and Structural Changes} Effective reforms may require legal changes, restructuring the police hierarchy, and implementing new training programs to focus on human rights and community relations.

    Finally
    The sentiment that the Nigerian police force was designed against the Nigerian masses speaks to a broader issue of accountability, trust, and the need for substantial reforms within the police system. Ongoing dialogues, public protests, and calls for systemic change are crucial for reshaping the police force into an institution that genuinely serves and protects all Nigerians. A focus on community engagement, transparency, and accountability is essential for rebuilding trust and ensuring that the police serve their intended purpose.Since the Nigeria still not in control of the force nothing will be done to make it work , to me (JTT) I don't expect anything meaningful from them until Nigeria create her own police force.

  • In 2009, Nigerian actress Omoni Oboli walked out of a movie deal that would have earned her 90 million naira then, because of three scenes in the script.

    She was contacted by a Hollywood producer to play a lead role in a movie that centred on African women. There were three scenes where she was supposed to go completely 'n@k3d' and play a character that was having 'the do' with three men.

    She turned down the offer and said she would only take the role if the three scenes were removed or modified by the American producer. But the producer was not ready.

    "I made it known to him (the Producer) that in my culture, you are only subject to your husband. I truly love my husband and he does too," she said.

  • GOVERNMENT TO LAUNCH 24-HOUR ECONOMY PROGRAMME ON WEDNESDAY 2ND JULY 2025.

    The Presidential Advisor on the 24-hour economy, Mr. Augustus Goosie Obuodum Tandoh has disclosed that the 24-hour initiative would be launched on Wednesday 2nd July 2025.

    He stated that the program is designed to transform production with agriculture as its main anchor to develop the nations value chain so that we are able to achieve greater productivity. He went on to say that the programme is made up of three angles that is Production transformation, Supply chain and market efficiency and human development.

    Mr. Tandoh noted that to make this initiative work, the three angles will be supported by some subgroups “Grow 24 which is the agricultural component, Make 24 which is the manufacturing component, Connect 24 which is the Supply chain component, Aspire 24 which is the Mindset change, that’s resetting the Ghanaian.” As part of Aspire 24, the government will also include a strong digital technology training to the TVET curriculum to provide employment opportunities.

    He said there’s also a component dubbed “Show Ghana” will be included to highlight Ghana’s vibrant culture to the diaspora, adding that the goal is to bring in more tourists and boost income through tourism.

    The RT Hon Speaker in his remarks stated that there are lots of opportunities interms of employment. He emphasized that the 24-hour economy office needs to work hard to get Parliament to approve a Bill. This would ensure the policy continues to be implemented, even if there’s a change in government, he added.
