Senator Ibikunle Amosun Set To Declare Presidential Ambition

Published

on

The 2023 general elections might be the mother of all elections in Nigeria as several political gladiators have been expressing interest in taking over from President Muhammadu Buhari after the elections, and the game appears to be getting interesting by the day.

However, information reaching has it that a former governor of Ogun State and the Senator representing Ogun Central, Ibikunle Amosun is set to join the bandwagon and declare his Presidential ambition in the first week of May, 2022.

Sources revealed that the APC chieftain decided to make his intention known at the end of the Holy Month of Ramadan and the Eid-Il-Fitri celebration as a staunch Muslim.

We were duly informed that the news has sent jittery into the camps of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, both of whom have since gone to town with their presidential ambitions.

Amosun is believed to be better positioned for the coveted office as a close pal of the northern oligarchy, headed by Presidential Muhammadu Buhari.

Recall that Amosun was in the All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP) with key northern leaders and he was a member of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) with President Buhari.

The Abeokuta-born politician is also said to be enjoying the support of the northern governors and majority of the APC members in the Nigerian senate.

“Amosun is highly favoured for the coveted office. They love him in the north and they believe that he is the best candidate compared to Osinbajo and Tinubu.

“They believe he has all it takes to move the country forward as a reliable southern Muslim with little baggages compared to his contemporaries.

“The north will go for him any day and he is a very good friend of Mr. President, so they prefer him,” a source told us.

Amosun is credited with several transformational projects in Ogun State, especially in the area of infrastructure as governor from 2011 to 2019.

The turnaround in Abeokuta with masisve road construction, construction of bridges in many parts of the state, education and health transformations amongst numerous others as Ogun governor were said to have endeared Amosun to the powers that be, who we gathered believe is more reliable than others.

Nigerian Doctor Planning To Relocate To The UK Slvmps And Ð!es After Being On Duty For 72-hours

Published

on

The Nigerian medical community is reeling from the devastating loss of Dr. Oluwafemi “Femi” Rotifa, a young doctor at the Rivers State University Teaching Hospital (RSUTH) whose life ended just as a new chapter was about to begin.

Dr. Femi had already completed his registration with the UK’s General Medical Council and concluded all plans to relocate for better opportunities abroad. He was days away from starting a fresh life when tragedy struck.

After working a grveling 72-hour call shift at RSUTH’s Emergency Room, he reportedly went to the call room to rest but slumped and never woke up. Despite resuscitation efforts at the ICU, he was pronounced gone—leaving behind family, friends, and colleagues in deep shock.

His passing has been described by the Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) and the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) as a preventable death, one that reflects the harsh reality of overworked and under-supported doctors in Nigeria.

Dr. Femi’s story is both heartbreaking and eye-opening: a young man full of promise, already on the path to building a brighter future abroad, cut down by the very system he gave his all to serve.

Mohbad: I Have Always Been Ready For The DNA Test – Wunmi

Published

on

Mohbad’s wife, Omowunmi “Wunmi” Aloba, has finally reacted after the Ikorodu Magistrate Court ordered that a DNA test be conducted on her son, Liam. The court directed that two separate tests be carried out—one in Nigeria and another abroad—with samples to be collected from Mohbad’s remains at the Military Hospital in Yaba in the presence of representatives from both families. The matter has been adjourned till November 11, 2025, for further hearing. In her reaction, Wunmi maintained that she has never been against the DNA process but insisted that it must be done through proper legal channels and not as a result of social media pressure. She explained that she is willing to cooperate once her father-in-law initiates it formally through the court, stressing that no outsider has the right to dictate how it should be done. Her lawyers also pushed back against claims that she was being uncooperative, describing such statements as defamatory and demanding a public apology from those spreading them. Wunmi also clapped back at online commentators who kept dragging her into controversies, making it clear that her priority remains protecting her son and honoring her late husband. While the court’s decision may finally settle questions surrounding Liam’s paternity, many Nigerians have expressed concern that the DNA debate has overshadowed the more pressing issue of justice for Mohbad’s mysterious death. For now, all eyes are on November when the case will resume, with hopes that the truth will bring closure not just to the family, but to fans who continue to demand answers.

The military government in Burkina Faso has suspended Target Malaria, a project backed by Bill Gates’ foundation that releases genetically modified mosquitoes to fight malaria.

Authorities ordered the NGO to immediately stop all operations, saying foreign projects must align with national priorities. Civil society groups had also raised concerns, urging safer alternatives instead of controversial technology.

Target Malaria, active in Burkina Faso since 2012, said it has complied with all laws and remains open to dialogue. The first GM mosquito release happened back in 2019.

Burkina Faso is one of the world’s malaria hotspots, recording over 8 million cases last year.

This decision follows a wider crackdown: in recent months, the Traoré-led government revoked licenses of 21 foreign NGOs.
