Blaming opposition for hunger is ‘delusion’, Atiku tells Tinubu Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has accused President Bola Tinubu of blaming the opposition for the country’s economic hardship. He said the President was trying to evade responsibility for his administration’s policies. Tinubu had earlier on Saturday blamed his political opponents for hunger and poverty in the country while speaking at the All Progressives Congress presidential campaign flag-off in Kaduna. “I hear my opponent talking about hunger, poverty. Who created it? They did! They created the hunger, they created the poverty. We are trying to eradicate it,” the President said. Atiku, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, said Nigerians were entitled to demand answers from the APC-led government over rising living costs, poverty, insecurity and questions surrounding public expenditure. In a statement issued on Saturday by the Director of Strategic Communication of the ADC Presidential Ca...

 NYSC Extends Corps Member’s Service Year After Viral Criticism of Tinubu Administration


The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has extended the service year of corps member Ms. Rita Ushie, popularly known as Raye on Instagram, by two months in an apparent disciplinary action following her viral video criticizing President Bola Tinubu’s administration.


Raye, who was one month away from completing her mandatory national service, gained widespread attention in March after posting a video highlighting Nigeria’s worsening economic challenges. In the video, she claimed NYSC officials had threatened her and demanded she remove the content, sparking public outrage at the time.


The issue resurfaced on June 18 when Raye was unexpectedly summoned to appear before a disciplinary panel at the NYSC orientation camp in Iyana Ipaja, Lagos, without a formal invitation or letter, according to sources. Jonathan Ugbal, South-South Coordinator of the Take It Back Movement, who has been supporting Raye’s family, said she traveled to Lagos despite financial constraints. “She was met by the Local Government Instructor who asked her to return again this week,” Ugbal told newsmen.


After facing the panel, Raye reportedly apologized to NYSC staff upset by the public backlash from her video. However, her family was later informed of the two-month extension of her service year. “Her mother called me, saying she was crying over the phone after being told her service year had been extended,” Ugbal said, adding that Raye is currently in distress.


The NYSC has not issued an official statement on the matter. Meanwhile, Omoyele Sowore, convener of RevolutionNow, has threatened to organize a massive protest if the NYSC does not reverse its decision.


The case has reignited debates about freedom of expression and the treatment of corps members, with many calling for transparency from the NYSC regarding the disciplinary action.
