  • Why I will ban the importation of human hair if I were president Tinubu – Reno Omokri

    Why I will ban the importation of human hair if I were president Tinubu – Reno Omokri

    Human hair ban Reno Omokri

    Reno Omokri, a well-known political activist and pundit, explains why, if given the opportunity to lead Nigeria, he would outlaw the importation of human hair.

    The author, who is from Nigeria, commented on the dollar’s continuous rise above the naira on his Instagram page.

    According to Reno Omokri, Nigerians continue to devalue the naira because they spend a lot of money on imported goods and support them.

    He continued by saying that the majority of Nigerians spend more money on imported goods like human hair than they do on native goods.

    Why I will ban the importation of human hair if I were president Tinubu – Reno Omokri

    He wrote:

    “The Naira is a reflection of the Nigerian. Look, the Central Bank of Nigeria just paid a billion dollars to foreign airlines. Those are airlines flying the same route as Air Peace. Do you know that if you and I, as Nigerians, had flown Air Peace instead of foreign airlines, that $1 billion would have stayed and circulated in Nigeria? And when dollars and pounds stay in Nigeria, the Naira rises in power. If they leave Nigeria, our Naira goes lower and lower.

    The Central Bank had to cough up $200 million to pay for human hair, as if God did not give our women hair. This is hair that Indian, Bangladeshi, and Southeast Asian women cut and dedicate to their temples. They then barely process the hair and label them Brazilian, European and Peruvian hair, and our women rush to buy them, wear them, and shake the hair angrily to accuse Tinubu of ruining the economy. If I were Tinubu, I would ban the importation of human hair. Fact-check this, as a nation, Nigeria spends more on human hair than on books.

    The Naira is now our collective responsibility. When you go to Quilox to spend #5 million on Moét, Louis XIIl Cognac, and Glenfiddich, then post your receipt on social media, you are putting downward pressure on the Naira.

    Containers on the high seas coming to Nigeria with things we can produce in Nigeria are killing the Naira. There is no magic wand. If we don’t band together to stand together and buy made in Nigeria, the Naira will continue to go asunder!”

    President Bola Tinubu has called on Nigeria and neighboring countries in the Lake Chad region to demonstrate courage in reforming their military doctrine and practices.

    Tinubu told to stop Discos’ plans to increase electricity tariffs

    The Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) has called upon President Bola Tinubu to intervene and prevent the proposed hike in electricity tariffs by the Distribution Companies (DISCOs). In a statement signed by the OPC’s General-Secretary, Mr. Bunmi Fasehun, OPC President Mr. Wasiu Afolabi expressed the appeal on Sunday in Lagos.

    The Federal Government had recently disclosed that eleven successor electricity companies had requested a review of their respective electricity tariffs. However, Afolabi urged Tinubu to reject the proposed increase in electricity prices, noting that both the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN) had already opposed the move.

    Afolabi further emphasized that if the current tariff was not sufficient for the DISCOs to provide satisfactory service, they should surrender their licenses and cease operations. Additionally, he advocated for the elimination of the territorial monopoly, where only one DISCO has control over a service area without any competition.

    Lotanna Ojukwu asks Tinubu to condemn Obasa, Oluomo’s pronouncement against Igbos

    Lotanna Ojukwu, the younger brother of the late Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, former Biafra Head of State, has called on President Bola Tinubu to condemn what he described as unpatriotic statements made by MC Oluomo and the Speaker of the Lagos House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa.

    Ojukwu urged Tinubu to publicly denounce these statements, even if the individuals involved are members of his party.

    He made these remarks during an interview on Arise Television’s Morning Show program on Friday. Ojukwu was addressing questions related to security challenges in the Southeast region and advocating for the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

    He stated, “I would like to see President Tinubu’s government come out and firmly declare that certain acts by MC Oluomo or certain pronouncements by the Speaker of the Lagos House of Assembly are unpatriotic and violate the laws of the Federation of Nigeria. Tinubu should make this statement even if these individuals are members of his own party.”

    “As the current President of this country, he must publicly declare that such acts should no longer be tolerated,” Ojukwu emphasized.

    Tinubu doesn’t carry same baggage as Buhari about Igbos – Lotanna Ojukwu

    Lotanna Ojukwu, the younger brother of the late Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, former Biafra Head of State, has expressed his belief that President Bola Tinubu differs from former President Muhammadu Buhari in his stance towards the Igbo people.

    During an appearance on Arise Television’s Morning Show program on Friday, Lotanna Ojukwu addressed questions about the security challenges facing the Southeast region of Nigeria.

    He stated that if the governors of the Southeast region are sincere in their efforts, they have the ability to engage in meaningful discussions with the President and achieve the desired outcome, which is the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

    Lotanna Ojukwu further explained, “It is important to note that the court has ordered the release of Nnamdi Kanu. However, I never believed that Buhari, who has shown little favor towards the Igbo people, would release him. I have always voiced my skepticism whenever asked for my opinion.”

    He expressed a different outlook on Bola Tinubu, stating that Tinubu does not carry the same negative perceptions towards the Igbo people as Buhari appeared to hold. Lotanna Ojukwu expressed his desire to see a stronger bond of unity and love between the Yoruba and Igbo ethnic groups.

    IPOB sit-at-home: Release Nnamdi Kanu to end Southeast violence – Ojukwu’s brother begs Tinubu

    Lotanna Ojukwu, the younger brother of the late Biafra warlord Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, has proposed ways in which President Bola Tinubu can address the sit-at-home and insecurity challenges in the Southeast region of Nigeria.

    He suggested that Tinubu should engage in discussions with Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), in order to find a solution to the insecurity issue in the region. Lotanna believes that such discussions would help alleviate the pressure causing the sit-at-home protests and improve the security situation.

    During an appearance on Arise Television’s Morning Show, Lotanna also called on the Nigerian government to reach out to the Finnish government regarding the activities of Simon Ekpa, a Finland-based individual linked to the escalated violence during the sit-at-home protests in the Southeast.

    Lotanna stated, “I appeal to Tinubu to intervene in this matter. One-fifth of the country is being held hostage, preventing people from going to work and conducting their businesses. This situation has had a negative impact on our economy and the moral fabric of our society. It is a pressing security issue that Tinubu, who has proven himself capable of tackling security challenges, must urgently address.”

    He further emphasized that those perpetrating the acts of violence are demanding the release of Nnamdi Kanu, and since the court has ruled in favor of his release, Tinubu should engage in dialogue with Kanu. He also suggested that Tinubu should use diplomatic channels to engage with the British and Finnish governments to address the actions of Simon Ekpa.

    Lotanna believes that diplomatic arrangements with these countries could help put an end to Ekpa’s inflammatory comments and the violence associated with the sit-at-home protests, as Ekpa has claimed that the violence will cease once Kanu is released.

    The Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) has announced its plans to review the salaries of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Vice President Kasim Shettima, governors, judiciary officers, and other political office holders. Alhaji Muhammadu Shehu, the Chairman of RMAFC, revealed this during the presentation of the reviewed remuneration package reports to Kebbi State Governor, Dr Nasir Idris, in Birnin Kebbi.

    While the specific percentage of the salary increment was not mentioned, Shehu urged the 36 State Houses of Assembly to expedite the amendment of relevant laws to facilitate the upward review of remuneration packages for political, judicial, and public officers.

    These statements come in the midst of speculations regarding a 114 percent increase in the salaries of Tinubu, Shettima, governors, judges, and other political figures. The RMAFC chairman, represented by Federal Commissioner Mrs Rakiya Tanko-Ayuba, stated that the proposed salary review aligns with the provisions outlined in the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Government (as amended), specifically Paragraph 32(d) of Part 1 of the Third Schedule.

    He emphasized that the RMAFC is empowered to determine appropriate remuneration for various political office holders, including the President, Vice President, Governors, Deputy Governors, Ministers, Commissioners, Special Advisers, Legislators, and those mentioned in Sections 84 and 124 of the Constitution.

    Shehu noted that the last review of remuneration took place in 2007, resulting in the “Certain Political, Public and Judicial Office Holders (Salaries and Allowances, etc.) (Amendment) Act, 2008.” Given the sixteen-year gap since the last review, he emphasized the importance of updating the remuneration packages for the mentioned office holders in accordance with the relevant sections of the constitution.

    Nigerians upbeat as Tinubu wields big stick on agency heads

    Two weeks after the inauguration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, his administration’s key decisions are receiving praise from Nigerians. Since taking office on May 29, 2023, Tinubu has made unexpected moves, including the removal of fuel subsidy and the suspension of the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele, due to his handling of the country’s monetary system.

    The President has also suspended the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, Abdulrasheed Bawa, over corruption allegations. Many citizens view these actions as a sign that Tinubu is conscious of Nigeria’s challenges and is addressing them decisively as a sitting President.

    Some even believe that the current administration has accomplished what took the previous administration years to achieve or overlooked entirely, including the removal of fuel subsidy, the signing of significant acts, and the unification of the foreign exchange market. There are indications that the President’s Policy Advisory Council has recommended merging government agencies like the Nigerian Customs Service, NIMASA, and FIRS to improve tax collection efficiency. While some details of Tinubu’s plans and direction remain unclear, Nigerians perceive him as a President who genuinely aims to build the nation. However, these economic decisions may have implications for the prices of goods and services for Nigerians, and Tinubu has called for their endurance during this period. The introduction of a students’ loan scheme has been welcomed as a positive step by experts, emphasizing the need for comprehensive solutions in the education sector. Nigerians on social media have reacted positively to Tinubu’s economic decisions, applauding his swift actions and expressing hope for progress under his leadership.

    Implement Customs Service Act, advise Hameed Ali to resign – Group to Tinubu

    The Leadership Integrity Forum (LIF) has called on President Bola Tinubu to remove the Comptroller-General of Customs, Hameed Ali (rtd), from office in accordance with the newly enacted Nigeria Customs Act of 2023.

    According to a letter titled “Sit Tight Syndrome: An Anathema of African Culture, Nigeria Customs Service as Case Study,” issued by LIF’s Communications Manager, Clement Adesanya, it is argued that Hameed Ali’s continued tenure is in violation of the agency’s act and is therefore illegal.

    Adesanya emphasized that the Nigeria Customs Service should operate based on the rule of law rather than by force, asserting that Col. Hameed Ali (rtd) should be advised to facilitate a smooth transition of administrative machinery in order to implement the new Act’s economic trade facilitation policies.

    The group referenced specific sections of the Nigeria Customs Service Act, particularly Section 14(1)(a), which states that “The President shall appoint a career officer from the service, not below the rank of Assistant-Comptroller General (who shall be responsible for the overall management of the service) and be accountable for all revenue collections and all expenditures made under this Act.”

    The Act also outlines various other responsibilities for the Comptroller-General, as stated in sections 14 (b) (c) (e) (f) (g) (h), which pertain to the appointment of the Chief Executive of the Customs Service as prescribed by the Act.

    Adesanya expressed the expectation that, since the law has come into effect following the President’s assent, the former Comptroller-General, who is not a career officer within the Nigeria Customs Service, should have vacated his position to allow for the proper administrative implementation of the Act.

  • Yoruba Nation: Fuji musician, Ayinde begs Tinubu to pardon Sunday Igboho

    Yoruba Nation: Fuji musician, Ayinde begs Tinubu to pardon Sunday Igboho

    There has been an appeal to President Bola Tinubu to grant clemency to Sunday Adeyemo, also known as Igboho, the embattled Yoruba Nation agitator. This plea came from popular Fuji musician, King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, commonly known as K1 De Ultimate, who believes that pardoning Igboho would allow him to return to Nigeria.

    During a live performance where he sang about the importance of peace in Nigeria, K1 De Ultimate implored Tinubu to reconcile all factions, emphasizing the unity of the nation. He stated that regardless of ethnic backgrounds, whether Yoruba, Igbo, or Hausa, it is crucial for Nigerians to embrace one another. K1 De Ultimate specifically mentioned Igboho, describing him as one of their own and urging Tinubu to facilitate his return.

    The musician expressed the belief that once Tinubu is firmly settled in his office, he should address this contentious issue. K1 De Ultimate called for Igboho to be allowed to return to his homeland, alongside other agitators from various regions, suggesting that their leaders should engage in roundtable discussions.

    In July 2021, Interpol arrested Igboho at the Cadjèhoun Airport in Cotonou, Benin Republic, after he fled Nigeria following a manhunt by the Department of State Services (DSS). Igboho had been declared wanted by the DSS for allegedly amassing weapons at his residence in Soka, Ibadan, Oyo State.

    He was subsequently detained in a prison in Benin Republic but was released in March 2022 to receive medical treatment, on the condition that he remained within the West African country. Thus, Igboho has been confined to Cotonou since his release.

    Biafra: Tinubu urged to disregard Buhari’s ignominy, release Nnamdi Kanu

    Aloy Ejimakor, the Special Counsel to Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has called on President Bola Tinubu to disregard the actions of his predecessor, ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, and release Nnamdi Kanu.

    Ejimakor expressed his astonishment at Buhari’s lack of respect for the rule of law, emphasizing that Kanu’s prolonged detention without any charges is a clear violation of the principles of the rule of law.

    In a series of tweets inspired by his recent visit to Kanu, Ejimakor pledged to share insights into their discussions. He began by stating, “Detention without any charge is the defining feature of a banana republic.”

    He criticized the Buhari administration’s blatant disregard for the fundamental principles of the rule of law and urged President Tinubu not to follow the same path of disregard.

    According to Ejimakor, when there are no charges against an individual, they should be released. Therefore, the continued detention of Nnamdi Kanu without any charges is both unlawful and in violation of the law.
