  The Leader Of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele has released a prophetic message about Nigeria ahead of the 61st independence celebration coming up on Friday, 1st of October, 2021. In a lengthy message signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele spoke about the present administration, security, state of affairs economy and several other topical issues. Although Primate Ayodele berated the present condition of Nigeria in terms of administration, banditry, economy but he revealed that God is ready to expose corrupt leaders and capture bandits, terrorism group leaders. ‘’ Our 61st independence anniversary has no meaning, there is no development, the government has done well but the poor are not enjoying it. There is too much of death, bloodbath, and more is still coming. What the Lord said to me that we should expect in this new independence year is that the level of corruption in this government will be exposed and some bandits leaders, ISIS, ISWA

  The Middle Belt Journalists Forum, MBJF, has distanced itself from the Northern Governors Forum’s (NGF) position that the North should again produce the next president of Nigeria in 2023, stressing that it was against the already established understanding of rotational presidency in the country. MBJF also picks holes in the rejection by the NGF of the Port Harcourt High Court judgment, which empowers states to collect Value Added Tax from their states, instead of the Federal Inland Revenue Services, FIRS. According to the group, it is sub-judicial for the governors to discuss and even issue a communique on a matter that is still pending in court. The forum stressed that rotational presidency which is being canvassed by the Governors from the southern part of the Nigeria, is based on a political understanding that was reached many years ago, and which has fostered national peace, unity and political stability in the country, and so should not be jettisoned at this point by any group f

Sanwo-Olu gave the assurance in a goodwill message delivered at the Lagos Central Mosque to mark the commencement of the 2021/2022 legal year, noting that despite the challenges of the mindless destruction and vandalisation of Igbosere High Court, the oldest court building in Nigeria, the judicial system has continued to function effectively and efficiently.  He commended the Chief Judge of Lagos State, Justice Kazeem Alogba and the entire members of the State Judiciary for the success recorded in the last legal year in spite of the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the aftermath of the #EndSARS protest, which was hijacked by hoodlums to wreak havoc on public and private assets.  The

  When Primate Ayodele released a prophecy about Nigeria’s Taliban-like sect, many thought he wanted attention or just spoke out of his human knowledge, little did they know that God was speaking through him as HE normally does about the affairs of nations. The name ‘Taliban’ became popular when they took over Afghanistan from the government in a well-coordinated attack against the president of the country even though Primate Ayodele warned long before this unfortunate incident came to pass. Shortly after this operation, Primate Ayodele released a prophecy that he foresees a Taliban-like sect taking over some states in the north and he specifically mentioned those states. He mentioned Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Nasarawa, Bauchi, Kaduna, Plateau, some parts of Benue and Kogi states. These were his words ‘‘’I am seeing a sect like Taliban coming up Africa, they are coming in a big form to attack African countries like Burundi, Mali, Central Africa Republic, Benin Republic, Chad, Niger Republi

  It is no more news that some state governors in Nigeria are at war with themselves over several issues that has to do with security, funds, administration, and many others. Before now, there was never a time when a governor openly call out a fellow governor over any issue, we used to know them for peaceful co-existence with one another most especially governors that are from the same party, it has never happened in the history of Nigerian politics until this moment. Some months ago, the governors of Benue and Bauchi states; Samuel Ortom and Bala Mohammed had a verbal war over the issue of Fulani herdsmen. They were all over the internet speaking against each other despite the fact that they are both from the People Democratic Party. One would have thought the opposition party is not united and because of that, the governors are against one another but a similar case took place some days ago in the ruling party, All Progressive Congress.

  The Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Diaspora, Hon. Tolulope Akande-Sadipe has berated the Nigerian law enforcement agencies, the Police Force and the weak Judicial system, which in turn has indirectly aided the high level of impunity by human trafficking and forced labour offenders in Nigeria.  The Oluyole Federal Constituency representative said this in her keynote address during a joint-capacity building retreat held for House of Representatives members of the committee on Diaspora, Foreign Affairs and Human rights in Abuja.  She noted that Nigerian courts and the Police Force continue to penalize traffickers with fines alone, or offering the option to pay a fine instead of serving time in the correctional centres across the nation.  “This is why it is important for us as law makers to truly understand various dimensions and ramifications for human trafficking as well as its effects on our society and on humanity, so that we can on our own part, do what we can to pu

  The Nigerian economic situation is getting worse as the day goes by. The dollar rate is on the high side and prices of essential commodities have skyrocketed in recent times. In the history of Nigeria, it has never been this bad economically. The naira has lost value against almost every notable currency in the world, which is of course unhealthy for our purchasing power. With the situation of thing economically, one would agree that except there is a divine intervention, the economy is on the verge of collapse and is already shutting down.
