Wiz is him.”

In another post, he explained, “[I am] Not posting Wiz to chase clout, just reminiscing all he’s done for the culture!!!

“I’m contented with what I have worked for lol… but he’s him, I repeat!!!”

He added, “Concerning what I said on Honest Bunch Podcast that was posted few weeks ago, my take still stands.

“Yeah currently, Burna is the biggest, but when it comes to all timer, I’ll give it to Wiz… y’all can’t deny the works and the legendary status he built for himself… WIZ is him!”

Chelsea have reportedly developed a strategy to try and snatch Napoli star, Victor Osimhen this summer.

The Blues are mulling an offer in the region of €80m-€90m plus Romelu Lukaku and an unnamed young player for the forward.

Nigerian actor Kenneth Chiwetalu, widely recognized as Aguba, has publicly called out to Apostle Chibuzor Chinyere, the spiritual leader of OPM, regarding promises that were allegedly made to him.

In a viral video circulating online, the prominent movie star disclosed that the esteemed clergyman made a pledge to build a new house for him.

Aguba stressed that Apostle Chibuzor had envisioned establishing not just one, but two houses—both his current place of residence and village. 

The elderly gentleman disclosed that he has been experiencing ongoing health issues recently and expressed gratitude towards the OPM pastor for generously covering the cost of the medication he currently requires.

In March 2023, Aguba returned to his hometown in Enugu state after receiving free accommodation and medical treatment from Omega Power Ministry (OPM).

In July 2022, photos of Aguba in a dilapidated building surfaced and went viral on social media. 

The actor’s condition raised concerns among Nigerians on social media while the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) said “his case may be spiritual”.

Chibuzor Chinyere, the general overseer of OPM, however, offered to render his assistance to the actor.

The clergyman publicly outlined the terms of marriage for anyone interested in becoming Aguba’s wife, but Aguba himself seemed disinterested in the proposal.

The ministry later disclosed on social media that the actor has returned to his hometown.

“The Return of Aguba. On 22nd March 2023, the veteran Nollywood actor, Kenneth Chinwetalu popular known as Aguba, returns to his hometown in Enugu state,” OPM wrote on Instagram alongside photos of Aguba with smiles etched on his face.

WATCH HIM SPEAK BELOW 

The Calabar-Lagos coastal road appears to be perennially swallowed in controversy since the first day of the project’s unveiling.

Over the weekend opposition leader and former vice president Atiku Abubakar added fuel to the fire when he revealed that the president’s son Seyi is on the Board of the firm given the gigantic contract and alleged that President Bola Tinubu appears to more concerned about lining the pocket of friends and family.

Analysts say there is a lot more about the huge deal than the government is able to disclose so far.

The analysts are shocked by the utter lack of transparency and empathy with which the construction is being handled and they have raised six mins boggling questions:

1. Nigeria seeks to build a Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway. Of the places it could possibly start off from is Lagos, it just has to start off from Eko Atlantic, which is or will be the preserve of the privileged, ultra monied elite. Why? 

2. The original coastal road as the people were told during the construction of the Lekki expressway/toll gates, was the Water Corporation road. Nigerians were told it was going to be an alternative route to the tolled road. Today, a large expanse of that road has been abandoned and is virtually an eyesore. But, we have chosen to ignore it and instead start a brand new “Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway”. Why?

3. The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway is such an ‘urgent’ project that work on it commenced even before it was announced to the public. Quite a feat and highly unusual for any government project in this part of the world. Typically, such projects are slow to take off and are riddled with delays. In this case it’s so very different. What’s the great, big hurry and why?

4. This is the only project of this magnitude Nigerians have ever seen/heard of where an EIA stakeholder meeting is being convened AFTER the project has commenced. It appears the views/concerns of stakeholders and the potential environmental impact of the project are of absolutely no concern to the project owners/sponsors. This is particularly strange given the centrality today of ESG factors to project financing and investment decisions.

5. Globally, there are major concerns over the impact on coastal cities of rising sea levels, erosion and climate change. According to some reports, Lagos is particularly at risk from rising sea levels. Yet our government appears to be embarking on constructing a coastal highway at a cost of N4B per KM with no hard evidence of having conducted a proper EIA. Why?

6. The opacity about the source of funds and the nature of the handshake between government and the private sector in the funding arrangements makes it all even more worrying. First the contractor was going to self-fund and then suddenly, – change of plan – the government is now going to fund. But we don’t know the full cost, nor was any competitive bidding done. Why?

Many questions but no one’s giving any answers and as we speak, the demolitions have started. What exactly is the reason for the apparent obfusacation and difficulty with (or is it reluctance to provide) providing full disclosure of information that should be in the public domain? The people are afterall being told the road and accompanying demolitions are for the greater good and in the public interest.

Comedienne, media personality and movie actress Wofai Fada has continued to promote her wedding on social media despite her husband’s family’s disapproval of their marriage.

Wofai Fada announced her marriage to Taiwo Cole in an Instagram post on Saturday with their pre-wedding pictues.

However, the Cole family in a statement dissociated themselves from the marriage, saying they were unaware of the marriage plans and did not grant consent or support.

Unconfirmed reports claim Taiwo Cole’s father rejected their marriage because of their age difference.

Despite the statement, Wofai who appeared seemingly unbothered, shared their pre-wedding video on her Instagram account on Sunday with the caption “Let love lead.”

In a post via her Instagram story as well, Wofai Fada asserted her love while backing it with Bible verses. The quotes emphasised the power of love in its genuine form over the fear of common people.

She wrote:

“There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love” (1 John 4:18).”

“Yesterday, we saw that as we abide in love, we can be sure we abide in God (1 John 4:16).”

Meanwhile, Taiwo’s sister who appears to be in support of the marriage, posted pictures from their traditional wedding on X with a congratulatory message.

She wrote:

“Congratulations to my twin brother and my new sister in love – your union is blessed with love. Let love lead! #TWO24.”

Former governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Ogun State, Segun Sowunmi, has called for a complete overhaul of the party in order to stabilise it for future elections in the country.

The PDP chieftain disclosed this while speaking on the state of the PDP during a media briefing organised by the Ogun State Council of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ.

Sowunmi decried the party’s recent electoral losses in three consecutive Governorship elections in Ogun State.

The PDP stalwart, who advised on the urgent need for the party to restructure its internal working mechanism for optimal capacity and efficiency, also called for a revisit of its core values and ideology in order to restore its lost glory.

He also noted that the PDP is already working as a formidable opposition to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC in providing credible alternative policy options to the present administration.

Sowunmi further expressed his intention to run for the National Chairmanship position of the party

DAILY POST recalls that with the suspension of the party’s former National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, the North-Central caucus has agitating for the constitutional right of the zone to complete its four-year tenure, which ends in October 2025.

The Federal Government has approved a downward review in electricity tariff for Band A customers(Those with a daily supply of minimum of 20 hours).

Under the approved review,Band A customers who hitherto were charged N225/Kwh are now to pay N206.80/Kwh.

The decision to crash the tariff may not be unconnected with public outcry over the increase in electricity which industry observers, CSOs, labour unions have described as insensitive.

Already, electricity distributors are sending the reduction notice to their customers.

 In a notice to its customers on Monday, Ikeja Electric said “Please be informed of the downward tariff review of our Band A feeders from N225/kwh to N206.80/kwh effective 6th May 2024 with guaranteed availability of 20-24hrs supply daily.

”The tariff for Bands B, C, D, and E remains unchanged.”
