Just In: In a surprising twist, Sheikh Gumi Prays for “Divine Wrath” on Sponsors of Insecur!ty — Nigerians React

Sheikh Ahmad Gumi — widely known for visiting and negotiating with band!ts, and often criticized as their biggest sympathizer of terror!sm in Nigeria — has now prayed for God’s divine wrath to fall upon the sponsors of Nigeria’s insecurity.

Like as how now?

This statement has sparked reactions nationwide, with many Nigerians calling the comment ironic, m0cking, or even insu!ting, given Gumi’s long history of engagement with armed groups.

Social commentator Okwy Chris didn’t hold back, asking:

“Is this not laughable—or rather m0cking Nigerians?”

The remark has reopened national conversations about hypocrisy, accountability, and Nigeria’s long, painful struggle with insecurity.

As debates intensify, Nigerians are asking: Is Gumi suddenly switching positions, or is this yet another strategic attempt to influence public perception?

Do you see Gumi’s prayer as genuine — or do you think Nigerians are being m0cked again?

BREAKING: Kogi Govt Deploys Helicopter, Anti-Kidnapping Squad After Church Attack

The Kogi State Government has launched both aerial and ground security operations following a violent attack on a Cherubim and Seraphim church in Ejiba, Yagba West LGA.

Video footage shared by Egbe Emekun Parrot shows a state-deployed helicopter and anti-kidnapping unit combing the area in pursuit of the armed attackers.

During the assault, the church pastor, popularly known as Orlando, and an unconfirmed number of worshippers were reportedly abducted. Residents are anxious as the operation continues to track the perpetrators and secure the victims’ safe release.

Footage from the scene shows the church interior in disarray, with shoes and Bibles left behind. A witness filming said:

“I hid myself; this is the church where they kidnapped people… Baba Orlando, the head of this church, was taken. They didn’t even turn off the speaker.”

This attack adds to a worrying trend of violence against places of worship in Kogi and neighboring states. Just weeks ago, on November 18, bandits attacked Christ Apostolic Church in Kwara State, killing five people and abducting 38 worshippers, including women, children, and the elderly.

Security agencies successfully rescued the Kwara victims after coordinated operations, raising hopes that the Kogi abductees will also be freed safely.

Local Contractors Protest Non-Payment of ₦4 Trillion — Accuse Tinubu Govt of Ignoring 2024 Project Debts

Local contractors under the All Indigenous Contractors Association of Nigeria (AICAN) are protesting again over the Federal Government’s failure to pay ₦4 trillion owed for completed 2024 capital projects.

Despite multiple meetings with the Minister of Finance, Wale Edun, the contractors say no payment has been made.

Many say they are now out of business:

“We’ve run out of cash. We can’t pay school fees. We can’t continue like this,” a contractor told SaharaReporters.

In September, the contractors stormed the Ministry of Finance in Abuja demanding payment. Only 5 out of 5,000 contractors have reportedly received anything.

The protests forced the House of Representatives to suspend plenary earlier this month, after lawmakers acknowledged the “dire hardship” contractors are facing.

Meanwhile, data from GovSpend shows the Presidency spent billions on vehicles and foreign exchange in 2024 — raising more questions about government priorities.

The contractors vow to remain on the streets until every member is paid.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved the establishment of the National Tax Policy Implementation Committee (NTPIC).

The committee, which Mr Joseph Tegbe chairs, will ensure the implementation of the administration's landmark tax reforms in line with the economic aspirations of the government and the people of Nigeria.

Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr Wale Edun, will oversee the committee's work.

The Committee will undertake extensive consultations across the public and private sectors to ensure broad-based input into the implementation process.

Its chairman, Tegbe, is a Fellow of both the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (FCA) and the Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria (FCIT).

He has over 35 years of professional experience across the public and private sectors, having previously served as a Senior Partner and Head of Advisory Services at KPMG Africa.

Mrs Sanyade Okoli, Special Adviser to the President on Finance and Economy, will serve as the Committee's Secretary. Members also include Ismaeel Ahmed, Rukaiya El Rufai, and others.

In establishing the Committee, President Tinubu emphasised that effective implementation of the Tax Acts is central to the nation's economic transformation agenda and critical to strengthening public finance management while safeguarding the legitimate expectations of investors and the productive sectors.

"These new Tax Acts reflect our administration's commitment to building a fair, transparent, and technology-driven tax system that supports economic growth while protecting the interests of citizens and businesses.

"The National Tax Policy Implementation Committee will ensure coherent, effective, and well-aligned implementation across all levels of government," the President stated.

The NTPIC's mandate emphasises broad stakeholder consultation through nationwide engagements with the private sector, professional bodies, and subnational governments, alongside public awareness campaigns to support effective implementation of the new tax laws.

It also prioritises strong inter-agency coordination by aligning the work of key revenue and regulatory institutions, harmonising existing frameworks with new statutes, and ensuring unified oversight and reporting throughout the transition process.

The Committee comprises experts drawn from tax administration, finance, law, the private sector, and civil society, ensuring a balanced and inclusive approach to policy execution.

The chairman expressed the team's readiness to work diligently in support of national development.

"We understand the strategic importance of these Tax Acts. Our committee will work closely with all stakeholders to support the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy in ensuring seamless implementation and building public trust in the tax system," he said.

The Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr Wale Edun, added:
"With the establishment of this Committee, Mr President has not only set the direction but also provided the authority and support required to reset not just the tax system but the entire fiscal policy framework of Government, to deliver significant economic growth for the benefit of all Nigerians."

The NTPIC is expected to enhance revenue mobilisation, minimise leakages, and reinforce accountability, thereby strengthening the government's fiscal sustainability and national development objectives.

“Every Child Deserves Safety” — First Lady Oluremi Tinubu Calls for United Action Against Sexual Abuse


The First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has called on all Nigerians to take decisive action to protect children from sexual exploitation and abuse.
She made this appeal in Abuja on Tuesday during the commemoration of the World Day for the Prevention of and Healing from Child Sexual Exploitation and Sexual Abuse 2025.

This year’s global theme is:
“Strengthening the Protection of Children Against Sexual Exploitation and Sexual Abuse Through Evidence-Based Policy Making.”

Mrs Tinubu stressed that child protection must be a shared responsibility, urging parents, leaders, institutions, and young people to unite in building a society where children feel safe, valued, and protected.

“As a nation, we must ensure that every child grows up free from fear and harm,” she said.
She further emphasized that true protection requires more than speeches — it demands evidence-driven policies, accurate data, effective research, and actionable collaboration.

She called on government agencies, civil society, traditional and religious leaders, and communities to work collectively in creating safe spaces where children can thrive without the threat of abuse.

The World Day, observed every November 18, was created in 2015 by the Council of Europe and later recognized by the United Nations in 2022 to raise awareness, reduce stigma, support survivors, and strengthen global response to child sexual abuse.

Mrs Tinubu concluded with a prayer:
“May God protect all our children.”

Technological Advancements Transforming the Collation Shrink Films Market

The packaging industry is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by e-commerce growth, supply chain optimization, and the increasing need for product protection and presentation. Collation shrink films have emerged as a critical solution for bundling multiple items, safeguarding them during transit, and creating visually appealing retail displays. Their use spans industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, personal care, and consumer electronics, highlighting their versatility and indispensability in modern packaging.

The Collation Shrink Films Market
is growing steadily as companies focus on improving packaging efficiency, reducing waste, and enhancing product visibility. Businesses rely on comprehensive insights into Collation Shrink Films Demand
to understand consumption patterns, forecast growth, and develop strategic production plans. Such insights allow stakeholders to identify high-growth regions, prioritize investment, and adopt suitable materials and technologies.

Polyethylene remains the leading material due to its affordability, durability, and ease of application, while polypropylene and PVC are increasingly chosen for high-clarity, premium packaging. Advanced multilayer films offer superior puncture resistance, shrink properties, and optical quality, making them ideal for large-scale industrial applications. These innovations allow manufacturers to enhance packaging performance while maintaining operational efficiency.

Automation is a key driver of market expansion. Modern shrink-wrapping machines integrated with robotics and smart conveyor systems increase throughput, minimize labor costs, and ensure uniform film application. IoT-enabled solutions further optimize production by monitoring film usage, detecting defects, and supporting predictive maintenance.

Environmental concerns are shaping material selection and adoption. The trend toward recyclable, biodegradable, and energy-efficient films aligns with global sustainability initiatives and growing consumer awareness. Regions with stringent regulations and high eco-consciousness, such as Europe and North America, are leading in sustainable film adoption, while emerging markets are gradually following suit.

"Over 200k people are living with HIV in Rivers state"— Nedu’s podcast guest says, as they raise awareness about the high HIV rate in Lagos.

A recent episode of The Clarity Zone Podcast hosted by media personality Nedu Wazobia sparked conversations online after a guest opened up about the growing concern of HIV/AIDS in Lagos and other parts of Nigeria.

Speaking on the show, the guest highlighted the alarming statistics of HIV prevalence across several states, naming Rivers, Benue, Akwa Ibom, and Anambra as some of the states with the highest number of people living with the virus.

“Rivers State has over 200k. The next is Akwa Ibom with over 100k, and funny enough, Anambra State also has about 100k,” the guest said.

The speaker, also discussed efforts being made to promote awareness and connection among people living with the virus, citing the idea of ‘positive bondship’ a space where HIV-positive individuals can meet and build relationships safely.

“We’re trying so hard to curb it, that’s why we have positive bondship that’s why if you’re HIV positive, you can meet your fellow HIV positive. But on this part of the Island, people just believe because I’m positive doesn’t mean I cannot be with who’s negative,” the guest added.

They went on to address the widespread stigma and denial surrounding HIV, noting that many Nigerians, including influential figures, live with the virus in silence.

“A lot of people are in denial. Some of them are like, ‘Anything can kill a man, no be to die?’ Even our politicians, some of them are like that they are HIV positive. Most times people don’t know,” the guest said.

The emotional confession has stirred discussions on social media, with many praising the speaker’s courage to break the silence on a topic often treated as taboo in Nigeria.

28-Year-Old Man Allegedly Consumes Two Bottles of Sniper Poison After Mother Calls Him a Failure.

In a distressing turn of events, a 28-year-old man in Ikorodu, Lagos, allegedly consumed two bottles of sniper, a highly toxic insecticide, in front of his mother. The incident, which has sent shockwaves through the community, is reportedly linked to ongoing parental pressure and comparisons with peers.

According to local reports and social media circulating the video, the young man was driven to this extreme act due to his parents’ continuous criticism and comparison of his achievements with those of their friends’ children. The video, which has since gone viral, captures the moments leading up to the tragic event, showing the man in a state of distress amidst family members.

Eyewitnesses and family sources revealed that despite attempts by those present to intervene, the young man refused help. The situation escalated as he consumed the poison, leading to a frantic response from family members who tried to administer first aid, including red oil and coconut water, in a desperate bid to save his life.

The incident has reignited discussions on mental health, parental expectations, and the impact of social comparisons on young adults. Mental health experts have expressed concern over the rising cases of suicide linked to such pressures, urging parents to foster supportive environments rather than ones laden with unrealistic expectations.

Local authorities have launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident. Community leaders and mental health advocates are calling for increased awareness and support systems for young adults facing similar pressures.

This tragic event serves as a stark reminder of the profound effects that familial dynamics can have on mental well-being, prompting a broader conversation on how society can better support its youth in navigating these challenges.

“We Never Knew She Was Sick” — Brother of Late Gospel Singer Aduke Gold Reveals Emotional Details About Her Death

The heartbreaking story surrounding the death of late gospel singer Moronkola Aduke Ajayi, fondly known as Aduke Gold, has taken a new turn as her brother, Pastor Engineer Ebunoluwa Oluyemi Noah, opened up about the painful truth behind her passing.

In an emotional interview on Talk To B Podcast on Friday, October 17, 2025, Noah revealed that the family only learned the true cause of Aduke’s death — cervical cancer — after receiving her death certificate.

“I challenged her manager, Mayowa. How come? What caused Aduke’s death?” he recounted. “He didn’t even open up. He only said she was feeling somehow and was moved from one hospital to another — from Begger to LASUTH. It was when I saw the death certificate that I knew it was cervical cancer.”


Noah expressed shock that no one in the family or her close circle knew about her illness. “Aduke was going through all this and nobody was aware. Honestly, nobody knew she had cervical cancer,” he said tearfully.

He described Aduke as a lively and cheerful person, noting that she appeared healthy even after returning from the UK. “She was getting fatter; there were no signs at all,” he added.

According to him, the gospel singer had undergone two chemotherapy sessions and was preparing for the third before her tragic passing. “The day she died, they said she took ginger and garlic, which triggered internal bleeding. Before they could help her, she didn’t make it,” Noah explained.

The revelation has left fans and colleagues heartbroken, sparking renewed conversations about early detection and awareness of cervical cancer among women.

Rest in peace, Aduke Gold — your voice may be gone, but your songs and legacy will live forever.

“Be a Hand-Washing Hero!” — Nigeria Marks 2025 Global Hand-Washing Day with Renewed Call for Hygiene Awareness


Health begins with clean hands! Nigeria joins the world in celebrating Global Hand-Washing Day 2025, urging citizens, leaders, and communities to make hand hygiene a daily habit for a healthier nation.


Nigeria joined the rest of the world on October 15, 2025, to commemorate Global Hand-Washing Day in Abuja, with the theme “Be a Hand-Washing Hero.” The event focused on raising awareness about the importance of basic hand hygiene in preventing infectious diseases and promoting national health.

Delivering the keynote address, the Minister of Water Resources and Sanitation, Professor Joseph Utsev, stressed that although hand washing may appear simple, it remains one of the most effective ways to stop the spread of infections. He urged Nigerians to make it a daily habit and a collective responsibility.

“Every Nigerian must make hand washing a consistent part of their daily routine. Clean hands save lives,” Utsev emphasized.


Global Hand-Washing Day is observed every October 15 to highlight the power of washing hands with soap as an affordable, life-saving practice that prevents illnesses and promotes hygiene in homes, schools, and healthcare centers.

According to a UNICEF report, only 16% of Nigerians have access to basic hand-washing facilities at home — a figure that leaves millions, especially children, vulnerable to infectious diseases.

This year’s commemoration also carried a strong call to action, urging leaders at all levels to invest in hand-washing infrastructure and ensure every school, hospital, and workplace has access to clean water and soap.

Representatives from UNICEF reaffirmed their commitment to expanding hygiene education and supporting government programs that improve access to sanitation facilities across Nigeria.

The Federal Government has also continued its push through national initiatives such as the PEWASH Programme, the Clean Nigeria: Use the Toilet Campaign, and the Sustainable Urban and Rural WASH Project — all aimed at achieving universal access to water, sanitation, and hygiene.

As Nigeria commemorates this global health event, the message remains clear: clean hands are the first line of defense against disease — and every Nigerian can be a hand-washing hero.

The Head of Benin Operation Office, Kenoma Ojuederie gave the charge during the customers week celebration in Benin City.

“From now on, we are expecting the flood because water has been released from some dams, and floods are going to come due to the release of water from dams.

“So, as part of measures to avoid casualties, I advised the residents to move to higher ground while those in the area where there are IDP camps should move there and the state government would cater for those in the camp,” he said.

He added that the customers’ week was to appreciate people in emergency management who are victims of disasters and stakeholders.

Earlier, the Edo State Executive Secretary, State Management Agency, SEMA, Jerry Idahosa, explained that the water is already rising, but there is no cause for alarm yet.
