 ‘I’ll turn off the mic’ — Remi Tinubu reins in Adeleke’s singing at Ooni’s anniversary First Lady Oluremi Tinubu cautioned Ademola Adeleke, the Osun state governor, for prolonged singing during his remarks at the 10th coronation anniversary celebration of Adeyeye Ogunwusi, the Ooni of Ife. The moment, captured in a now-viral video, occurred as the governor mounted the podium on Sunday to pay tribute to the monarch and to congratulate the Remi on her newly bestowed chieftaincy title, Yeye Asiwaju Gbogbo Ile Oodua. Rather than proceed immediately with his formal message, Adeleke, popularly known as the “Dancing Governor” for his spirited public appearances, burst into a short musical chant, drawing laughter from parts of the audience.

 UK risks 1976-style IMF shame – Badenoch


Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch has raised alarm that Britain may be forced into a humiliating IMF bailout, warning of “eerie parallels” with the 1976 sterling crisis.

In an interview with BBC, Badenoch said she is “really worried” that without a concrete growth plan, the UK could be pushed into the same situation that saw Jim Callaghan’s Labour government borrow $3.9bn from the International Monetary Fund nearly 50 years ago.

“We are not growing enough. If Labour continues with no plan for growth, we’ll end up going to the IMF cap in hand,” Badenoch said.

The Tory leader accused Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s government of presiding over a “doom loop” of rising taxes, shaky public finances, and soaring borrowing costs.

Badenoch, however, offered to work with Labour “in the national interest” if welfare spending is slashed and the two-child benefit cap maintained.

Her intervention comes as bond markets rattle the government, with UK borrowing costs recently hitting a 27-year high before easing.

Labour hit back sharply, blasting her warnings as “astonishing hypocrisy.”

“Kemi Badenoch’s Conservatives crashed the economy and sent mortgages spiralling. The brass neck to offer advice now is beyond belief,” a Labour source fired.

Economists remain divided, with some on the right warning of “eerie parallels” with 1976, while others dismiss bailout fears as hyperbole.
