Why Nigerian Leaders Don’t Take Citizens Seriously -Enenche “Nigerian leaders accountability cannot improve if citizens refuse to demand answers from public officials and instead redirect their frustrations at the wrong targets. That is another major challenge of our land. Not just redirection of responsibility, but irresponsibility of followership. “If we say leadership is irresponsible, which is confirmed, there is an equal or equivalent irresponsibility of the followership of the land. People who won’t take responsibility and are permanently looking for someone else to redirect their aggression to, rather than the people that deserve it.  “Deliver the people of the land from docility of mentality.

Mutapa, the country's biggest gold producer, had output of 104,626 ounces in the financial year to March 31, according to the documents, a 10% decline from the year before mainly due to lower grades.

 Rivers Governorship Candidate Blessing Fubara Says He Has No Godfather But God Blessing Fubara, the governorship candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) in Rivers State, has firmly declared that he has no political godfather, stating that his only guide is “God the Father.” Fubara made the assertion during an appearance on Arise Television’s *Prime Time* on Friday night, while distancing himself from suggestions that his political ambition is merely an extension of his brother’s political project. His brother is Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara. “I don’t have a godfather but I have God the Father,” Fubara said. “You would also agree with me that if my ambition is determined by the grounds you are mentioning, it would mean I have no clear vision or focus for what I am working toward.” He acknowledged that he and Governor Sim Fubara hold different political views, noting that the public witnessed the governor’s fallout with his former party. “My brother, Nigerians,...

 The South-East Woman Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mrs. Oby Ajih, has expressed strong confidence that the party will secure a decisive victory across the entire South-East region in the 2027 general elections. Speaking during a mid-year prayer and widows’ empowerment programme organised by the Abia State APC Woman Leader in Umuahia, Ajih stated that the electoral setbacks experienced by the APC in the South-East during the 2015, 2019, and 2023 presidential elections would not be repeated. She attributed the expected turnaround to the positive impact of President Bola Tinubu’s performance, which she said has significantly altered previous negative perceptions among residents of the region. “The performance of President Bola Tinubu in the South-East region and other parts of the country has changed any negative perception held by citizens in the region,” Ajih said. “The APC would harvest more votes across all polling units in the South-East.” Ajih also addressed co...

 General Hospital star Steve Burton accuses ex-wife of 'parental alienation' from their 11-year-old daughter in new filing Actor Steve Burton has accused his ex-wife Sheree Gustin of preventing him from spending time with their youngest daughter, Brooklyn, 11. In court documents, the General Hospital star claimed Gustin was engaging in “parental alienation” by creating obstacles that interfered with his court-ordered custody.  Burton alleged that Gustin refused to let his current wife, Michelle Lundstrom, pick up Brooklyn and declined to acknowledge Michelle or her daughters as part of Brooklyn’s extended family, despite the child’s close relationship with them. Gustin, however, denied the accusations in her response filing. She explained that the two had already established a parenting schedule and insisted she was not blocking Burton’s access.  Gustin said she was willing for Brooklyn to see her father but did not want her daughter spending “half her life traveling” bet...

 Tim Allen reveals the one thing that has saved his nearly 20-year marriage to Jane Hajduk Tim Allen credits humor as the secret to his nearly 20-year marriage with Jane Hajduk. In an interview with Us Weekly, the actor explained that laughter has helped them through challenges, recalling a recent moment when Jane made a witty remark during a golf outing that reminded him how much he loves her sense of humor.  He noted that despite their differences, they’ve built a strong bond by appreciating each other’s strengths and quirks. Allen described Hajduk as a talented athlete who introduced him to training and as a devoted Catholic whose faith has influenced their family life. While he doesn’t share her religious background, he said she admires his willingness to join her in that journey.  Their ability to “pull a bit on either side,” as he put it, has made them “pretty good buddies” who balance each other well.  The couple began dating in 2001, married in 2006, and welc...

 Jessica Simpson was forced to lose weight to compete with Britney Spears: I was 'never good enough' Jessica Simpson recently revealed that her record label pressured her to lose weight early in her career to compete with pop stars like Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.  Speaking at a Pennsylvania concert, the singer recalled being just 17 when executives told her to drop 15 pounds, despite weighing only 115 at the time.  By the release of her sophomore album Irresistible, she was told she needed a six-pack, a demand she admitted was unrealistic for her body type. Simpson said these expectations left her feeling like she was never “good enough.” The 45-year-old explained that the constant pressure to fit an image created by others overshadowed her belief that she was signed for her voice.  She described the struggle of trying to embody a version of “Jessica Simpson” that the label thought would succeed, which often left her feeling like a failure.  Last yea...
