 N500m ‘Largesse’: I Received N266m, Senator Confesses Senator representing Abia South, Enyinnaya Harcourt Abaribe, has said contrary to the claim that some ranking senators received N500 million from the 2024 budget, he had only received N266 million. A federal lawmaker representing Cross River North, Senator Jarigbe Agom-Jarigbe, had during plenary, on Tuesday, said that some senior senators had received N500 million each from the 2024 budget. The revelation came on the heel of an ongoing controversy over an allegation of budget padding made by Senator Abdul Ningi in an interview with BBC Hausa. Ningi had earlier accused the Senate of padding the 2024 budget, saying the National Assembly added an extra N3.7 trillion to the initial budget. Reacting to the development, during a chat with ARISE TV, Senator Abaribe said Ningi knew it was a mistake claiming what he could not prove, because he was not a new member in the Senate. Abaribe added that despite him, himself, being a senior senat

First Ever Physics Textbook Written In Igbo Language By Maazi Okoro From Ebonyi State  Is Out.   Over the years, I have read so many threats facing the Igbo and how it will go extinct. This motivated me to embark on this project that seemed unattainable, for science subjects to be taught in Igbo. I started from Physics. I said I would do it, and I DID IT. This book is designed in a way that one without formal education can understand Physics. It's needed in all libraries, schools, homes and for individual use. More photos below.

 Suspension of Ningi hasn’t addressed vital issues in allegation — Peter Obi tells Senate   The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, said the suspension of Senator Abdul Ningi by the Senate has not addressed vital issues in the allegation of the lawmaker. Obi stated this in a statement via his X handle on Wednesday. According to him, the fuss over the alleged N3 trillion padded into the 2024 budget still rages as the Senate’s reaction of suspending the whistle-blower has not addressed vital issues emanating from the allegation. He said, “The Senator is insisting on his allegation, and the Executive agreed that there was only N1.2 trillion padded, not N3 trillion as alleged by the Senator. Fresh allegations have also cropped up over the indiscriminate and unbalanced allocation of constituency projects by the Senate leadership.  “A civic society group, Budgit, through their officials, has also added their voice to agree with the Senator. They allege that there were no d

U.S. House Passes Bill To Remove TikTok’s Chinese Ownership Or Ban Video App  The U.S. House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed a bill on Wednesday that would give TikTok's Chinese owner ByteDance about six months to divest the U.S. assets of the short-video app used by about 170 million Americans or face a ban. From a report: The bill passed 352-65, with bipartisan support, but it faces a more uncertain path in the Senate where some favor a different approach to regulating foreign-owned apps that could pose security concerns. Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has not indicated how he plans to proceed. TikTok's fate has become a major issue in Washington. Democratic and Republican lawmakers said their offices had received large volumes of calls from teenaged TikTok users who oppose the legislation, with the volume of complaints at times exceeding the number of calls seeking a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.

MAN WHO SPENT 70YEARS IN AN IRON TANK DIES .(PHOTO).

 MAN WHO SPENT 70YEARS IN AN IRON TANK DIES  The polio survivor known as "the man in the iron lung" has died at the age of 78. "Paul Alexander, 'The Man in the Iron Lung', passed away yesterday," a post on a fundraising website said. In 1952, when he became ill, doctors in his hometown of Dallas operated on him, saving his life. But the polio meant his body and was no longer able to breathe on his own. The answer was to place him in a so-called iron lung - a metal cylinder enclosing his body up to his neck. The lung, which he called his "old iron horse", allowed him to breathe. Bellows sucked air out of the cylinder, forcing his lungs to expand and take in air. When the air was let back in, the same process in reverse made his lungs deflate. After years, Alexander eventually learned to breathe by himself so that he was able to leave the lung for short periods of time. Like most polio survivors placed in iron lungs, he was not expected to survive lo

 _Media Release_ WE WILL PUNISH ERRING SASA OPERATIVES I have been alerted to a viral video on the arrest and manhandling of one Wilfred Ezike, also known as Mgbiligba by SASA operatives. I really feel bad that an incident of that nature took place. I have felt bad all through the day since somebody posted the video to me. It is true that some people are unrepentantly committed to various criminalities on the basis of which innocent citizens remain in miserable conditions running their legitimate day to day life, but we must handle human beings according to prescriptions of the law, no matter their offence. Our Government is law abiding, and that is why we must fish out the SASA operatives involved in the incident under reference and punish them accordingly.  It is also true that we are resolute to stamp out "agberos," but that must happen within confines of the laws of the land. Interestingly, people have been commenting and reacting. This shows life in an organised democrac

 Tinubu demanded names, transaction details of top 100 Binance users in Nigeria before release of detained executives: President Bola Tinubu’s government has demanded that the world’s largest cryptocurrency platform, Binance, provide a list of the top 100 Nigerian users and their transaction details on the platform before detained officials are released.  “Nigeria is pressing Binance for information on its top 100 users in the country, as well as all transaction history for the past six months,” Financial Times reported on Tuesday. According to the newspaper, the request is at the centre of negotiations between Binance and Nigeria, which sees the company as a crucial link undermining government efforts to stabilise its currency, the naira. The six-month transaction details request tallies with the timeline of Nigeria’s currency devaluation. The reported request comes as two Binance officials, Tigran Gambaryan, a U.S. citizen and British-Kenyan Nadeem Anjarwalla, languish in detention t

REPLY TO GISTLOVERBLOG POST 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 K1 DENIES AFFAIR/RELATIONSHIP WITH ANY SOCIETY LADY AND CONFIRMS THAT HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS BEAUTIFUL WIFE, EMMANUELLA, REMAINS INTACT False rumors maliciously targeting K1's relationship with his beloved wife, Emmanuella, have been circulated by blogs.  This fabricated statement is entirely baseless and orchestrated by those seeking to create chaos. The clarification was contained in a statement, signed by K1’s publicist, Kunle Rasheed.  First and foremost, K1 is not involved in a relationship or affair with any society woman. Furthermore, there is no truth to the claim of K1 being in a relationship with a female chef; such allegations are unfounded and purely fictional, as he does not even have and has never had a female chef. Additionally, the assertion regarding Folake Ibile's marital status with K1 is utterly false. They simply share a coincidental surname, and Folake Ibile is happily married to another individual.
