Breaking : Mr Ibu’s leg amputated after seven surgeries

One of the legs of Nollywood actor, John Okafor, aka Mr Ibu, has been amputated.

Recall that the actor who was critically ill had called for financial support from Nigerians.

However, a statement issued by his family on Monday said that the actor underwent seven successful surgeries, and one of his legs had to be amputated to save his life.
The family also appreciated Nigerians for their support saying they are grateful, adding that “only the good Lord can thank you all enough for every help you’ve rendered”.

The statement added, “As of 1 pm, noon today , Daddy has gone through 7 successful surgeries but to keep him alive and increase his chances of recovery one of his legs had to be amputated.. This development has been hard on us all but we’ve had to accept it as Daddy’s new reality to keep him alive.

https://pastebin.pl/view/974cb853

"_Please we are still soliciting for support from well meaning Nigerians as this stage Daddy is is still one very delicate one and he needs all the help he can get".

“Thank you everyone, the Okafor family is grateful and we don’t take you for granted. In due time Daddy will personally acknowledge everyone who supported during this period as soon as he’s stable!”

Nigeria still crawling, I am determined to change the stories – President Tinubu

Welcoming the delegation to Nigeria, Tinubu said, “It is a profound pleasure for me to welcome my friend Olaf Scholz to Nigeria. It is a joy to see you here. At this particular period of time. It is just about a few days ago that the Supreme Court of Federal Republic of Nigeria had a final say on our electoral exercise.

I know Germany has advanced a lot in protecting the environment and modernising energy to meet the 21st century needs both of the world and Europe in particular. Nigeria is still crawling, but we are determined to change the narrative and bring about a transformative government in the country,” Tinubu told the visiting German Chancellor.
The distraction is over. This gives us more time to focus on governance for the people and moving Nigeria forward for economic opportunities and prosperity that will defend democracy.

In our last tete-a-tete, you made a promise that you will be visiting Nigeria and thank you and your delegation for keeping that promise. It is an honor for me to see you here”.

He said the business community in Nigeria is not averse to forging partnership with Germany being one of the largest economy in Europe.

He reminded Scholz that Nigeria was also the largest economy in Africa which is equally blessed with good environment, time of weather and mineral resources.
Our hydrocarbon industry is still fledging environmentally while we are moving towards the transition energy source.

“You are very welcome with your delegation to partner with us in terms of education, power, mineral resources and all the other opportunities. We have gone a long way to bring about security of our people.
We’re fighting terrorism and that is improving. We still need much support in that area. And for us to be able to sustain democracy, rule of law and freedom for our people, we need to fight for democracy. Democracy must win at all times for us to meet the expectation of an African dream. That is why your visit this time around is more than necessary and welcome. I hope you will enjoy yourself.

You will have noticed, I don’t need to go about the various problems happening in the Sahel region of Africa. You’ve seen and noticed the coup in Guinea and recently in Niger republic.

“We had people diplomatically managing the situation. The need for you to help in that of security will be empahsised and we will continue to require your knowledge. We thank you for the past contributions, particularly police, law enforcement training. We need more help.”

The German Chancellor, Scholz on his part said Germany remains committed to democracy and the rule of law.

𝗕𝗘 𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗖𝗘𝗥𝗘!! Given the present moment , If Tinubu Contest Again For President In 2027 – Would You Vote For Him?

Five months into Bola Ahmed Tinubu‘s regime and questions have already been raised if he’s the right person to lead the nation in the 2027 general elections.
President Tinubu emerged victorious in the February 25 general elections and since he assumed office on May 29, the economic situation of the country has been in challenging situation given all the factors contributing to stagnant inflation in the country

From the removal of fuel subsidies to the Naira falling to an all-time high of between ₦1,200-1250 against the dollar, it seems quite right to question the present administration as to what their plan is moving forward.

Some are of the opinion that President Tinubu is the right person for the job given his wealth of experience as both a former Governor and senator, also because of his background as an accountant.

Could it be true that President Tinubu is the best person to move the nation(Nigeria) forward?

We will be in the comment section, let's know your thoughts.

She claimed that most women have done abortion at least once or twice.

The reality star, who disclosed during her stay in the Big Brother House that she has done an abortion in the past, said some people tried to use her revelation to troll her after the show but she refused to be bullied.

When I was in the House, there was a conversation, everybody was talking.. Before I even come back to that. The issue of abortion, na who open up dem know, right? There’s no woman that can say she hasn’t done abortion once or twice.”

𝗕𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗡𝗚 𝗡𝗲𝘄𝘀 recalls Phyna and Chichi had a heated altercation during the “Level Up” reunion after latter called her an “abortionist.

Phyna also fired back by alleging that Chichi was a divorcee who abandoned her husband and children in Benin to become a stripper in Lagos.

Who Would Be Evicted First & Would Win?Wizkid, Olamide, Burna Boy & Davido in Big Brother House - Choose Among Them The Winner

First of all, who do you think would be the most popular among the housemates and the viewers? I think Wizkid would have an edge, because he is very charismatic and charming, and he has a lot of international appeal.

He would also be good at making alliances and avoiding conflicts.

Olamide would be another strong contender because he is very versatile and creative, and he has a loyal fan base. He would also be good at entertaining the housemates and the viewers with his rap skills and humor.

Burna Boy and Davido on the other hand, might have a harder time. Burna Boy is very talented and confident, but he can also be arrogant and controversial.

He might clash with some of the housemates and the viewers over his opinions and attitude. Davido is also very talented and rich, but he can also be impulsive and reckless. He might get into trouble with some of the housemates and the viewers over his actions and words.

Real Madrid midfielder, Toni Kroos, has claimed that the Ballon d’Or is not important.

Kross said this while giving his honest opinion about the prestigious top-individual award.

According to him, individual awards like the Ballon d’Or in football are ‘unnecessary’.

The German joined Real Madrid from Bayern Munich back in 2014 and has since seen the Ballon d’Or being awarded to his teammates like Luka Modric, Cristiano Ronaldo (now former teammate) and Karim Benzema (now former teammate) on five different occasions in the past.

Speaking on his podcast “Einfach mal Luppen” alongside his brother Felix, Kroos said: “If there had been one, I wouldn’t have stood up and rejected it because that is already an award. Above all, it is prestigious, but not important.”

He added, “My default attitude is simply that I don’t think it’s important – or not as important as other players think. I have always seen myself as a team player and I want to win titles with the team

“That’s what counts in the end. Because I believe that the team deserves the titles, I also believe that individual awards are unnecessary in a team sport. No single player would have even come close to winning anything on their own.”

Breaking :
Nigerian govt suspends Buhari’s N-Power over alleged fraud

The Federal Government has suspended the N-Power programme over alleged fraud in the scheme.

The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Betta Edu disclosed this in an interview on TCV on Saturday.

Former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration launched the N-Power Programme on June 8, 2016, as a component of the National Social Investment Program (NSIP) to address youth unemployment and increase social development in the country.

In the programme, the minister said the government would investigate how funds released for the programme were spent by the handlers since its inception seven years ago.

Edu said: “We must go back to look into N-Power and understand what the problems are so we will basically suspend the programme for now until we are done with proper investigation into the utilisation of funds into the N-Power programme.

We want to know how many persons are basically on the program right now, how many persons are owed, the amount they are owed. We are totally restructuring the N-Power and expanding it.

“There are lots going on. We met people who were supposed to have exited the programme last year and they are still claiming that they are still teaching.

“Sometimes we contact the school or the places where they are working and they are not there. They are not working yet they keep claiming that they are being owed eight or nine months’ stipends.”

A self-described gangster, Duane "Keefe-D" Davis, who, according to police and prosecutors, masterminded the 1996 shooting death of Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas, made his first court appearance on a murder charge on Wednesday.

Wearing a dark-blue jail uniform and plastic orange slippers, Davis was scheduled to be arraigned on Wednesday, but the hearing was cut short after he asked the Clark County District Judge, Tierra Jones, to postpone the hearing while he retains counsel in Las Vegas, Associated Press reports.

After his arrest last Friday, a grand jury indictment was unsealed in Clark County District Court, charging him with murder. Grand jurors also voted to add sentencing enhancements for the use of a deadly weapon and alleged gang activity.

Davis had been a long-known suspect in the case and publicly admitted his role in the killing in interviews ahead of his 2019 tell-all memoir. His comments revived the police investigation that led to the indictment, police and prosecutors said.

Prosecutors allege Shakur’s killing stemmed from a rivalry and competition for dominance in a musical genre that, at the time, was dubbed “gangsta rap.”

The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation Dr Beta Edu , says President Bola Tinubu has directed her ministry to reserve 10 per cent of social safety net intervention for older persons.

This was contained in a statement issued on Thursday by her Media aide, Mr Rasheed Zubair, in Abuja.

It stated that the minister was speaking during a stakeholders’ meeting to commemorate the 2023 National Day of Older Persons in Nigeria.

“Mr President has directed that my Ministry should set aside 10% of social safety net intervention programmes for older persons in the country.
“The rights of senior citizens in the areas of job security, health, livelihood, agriculture and other development planning must be considered.

“Presently, older persons are said to be about 14.8 million out of the entire population, that is why the President directed that in all our social welfare interfaces older persons must be involved,” she said.

Edu assured the senior citizens of the federal government’s resolve to provide them with necessary support towards improving the quality of their lives.

“The President also directed that those who are under the poverty line must be assisted and captured in the social interventions programmes.

“We would inaugurate two of such social intervention programmes with emphasis on senior citizens because we will be providing for senior citizens who are affected by humanitarian crises,” she said.

Family witches killed Mohbad, not Naira Marley – Prophet Ariole

Prophet Austin Ariole, the General Overseer of Goshen Freedom Tabernacle (GFT) in Effurun, Uvwie Local Government Area of Delta State, has claimed that Naira Marley was not behind the death of singer Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.

Instead, he stated that witches from the deceased’s family were responsible for his death.

Ariole made these claims during a prayer meeting of the Upper Room team of Goshen Freedom Tabernacle in Effurun on Tuesday.

“ Mohbad is actually sooooo bad when it comes to music . He is the type of guy I’ve always seen myself in him . His music , how he writes is just so different . To me he is one of the best song writers I’ve come across , most songs he drops is always repping something to do with me “ Naira Marley

Truth be told , Mohbad was truly a legend , making music for him was like ABC that’s why he wrote most of the songs under Marlian Records

What Can You say about this statement ,can we trust him(Marley) on this ?
