“This naturally raises two unavoidable questions. First, why is a government enjoying such an extraordinary oil windfall borrowing at almost twice last year’s pace as though the nation were in financial distress? Second, where is the money?” he queried.

President Bola Tinubu has felicitated the Minister of Works, David Umahi, on the occasion of his 63rd birthday, praising his dedication to delivering lasting infrastructure projects across Nigeria.

“I have been through that journey; I’m home now, and I can tell you there’s nowhere like home. Some people built the society where you are; they had their hands on their plough, and their focus was to develop their nation and their continent.”

“President Tinubu owes Nigerians an unreserved apology for presiding over this unprecedented collapse of public accountability. If he cannot immediately restore public confidence through a genuinely independent investigation and ensure that everyone responsible is held to account, then he has forfeited the moral authority to continue in office. The honourable course is simple: apologise to Nigerians and resign,” he declared.

President Bola Tinubu says the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, is changing for the better under the leadership of Nyesom Wike as its minister, 50 years after creation.
