Olisa Metuh Says Tinubu Repeatedly Tried To Persuade Him To Join APC

Wale busari04 mins

Former PDP National Spokesman Olisa Metuh has disclosed that President Bola Tinubu repeatedly reached out to him, urging him to leave the PDP and join the All Progressives Congress (APC). Metuh made the revelation on Sunday during a thanksgiving service in Abuja celebrating his 60th birthday, where he also hinted at a potential return to active politics three years after resigning from the PDP. He recounted feeling abandoned by the PDP during his legal battles, despite years of loyalty to the party. In contrast, members of the APC, including Tinubu—then an opposition leader—offered support. “When I had problems, I did not see my party; I did not see the people I suffered for. I was in the court with my family. But in the midst of that, somebody whom I criticised so much… President Tinubu sent the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, to come and see me. He reached out to me, comforted me, and did a lot of things for me then, and this was someone who was my political enemy,” Metuh said. He added, “It is really not where you sow that you will reap, it is where God said you will reap. I wish PDP well. I gave my life to PDP. But I have moved on, and I wish them well.” Metuh told journalists that he had declined several invitations from Tinubu to join the APC, including after the 2015 election and after leaving politics in 2022. He said his renewed political engagement is aimed at helping the federal government deliver democratic dividends. “Now that I’m in politics, I want to help. Maybe I could be a good voice to ensure that the polity is good. I want to assist the president to deliver the goods, the dividends of democracy. I have seen the steps, I have seen the challenges, and as a patriotic Nigerian, I want to join hands in resolving those challenges,” he said. Metuh also praised other prominent political figures, including Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi, and David Mark, while emphasizing that his focus is on national development rather than partisan rivalry.

Wale busari02 mins

Abia State Governor Alex Otti on Sunday paid a visit to Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader Nnamdi Kanu at the Sokoto Correctional Centre, assuring him that efforts to secure his release remain active. Governor Otti was joined by Kanu’s younger brother, Emmanuel Kanu; Abia State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice Ikechukwu Uwanna (SAN); and his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ferdinand Ekeoma. Officials from the Sokoto State Government were also present. Speaking after the visit, Ekeoma said Otti encouraged Kanu to stay strong, noting that the governor had intensified initiatives he began more than two years ago. Otti expressed confidence that the situation would be resolved administratively, and that Kanu would soon regain his freedom. The governor also informed Kanu that the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, had expressed support for a peaceful resolution. Otti recounted that the Sultan jokingly referred to Kanu as his “subject” and hinted at turbaning him, a remark that made Kanu laugh. Kanu, reportedly in good spirits, thanked Otti for the visit, commended the development projects in Abia State, and encouraged the governor to continue prioritising effective governance.

Tunde Bakare Claims Trump’s Nigeria Agenda Is Fuelled by Oil, Minerals and Geopolitical Power

Wale busari03 mins

Pastor Tunde Bakare has suggested that the Trump administration’s heightened focus on Nigeria is rooted in America’s pursuit of key resources and strategic advantages in emerging global technologies. Delivering his State of the Nation Address in Lagos, the Citadel Global Community Church overseer said Nigeria’s oil reserves, mineral wealth and relevance in future tech supply chains make the country an inevitable point of interest for President Donald Trump’s style of governance. He linked the development to the US government’s decision to relist Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern over religious freedom and Trump’s recent remarks on the rising violence across Middle Belt communities. Bakare explained that he anticipated this shift long before it happened, recalling that after Trump’s 2024 victory he received what he described as a symbolic revelation pointing toward a renewed American push in Nigeria driven by geopolitical calculations. According to him, “Nigeria’s oil wealth and other mineral resources will be critical to the Trump presidency, as will our role in the value chain of emerging technologies.” He warned that foreign pressure on Nigeria’s delicate religious landscape could heighten tensions if the government responds emotionally rather than strategically. He urged the authorities to prioritise economic diplomacy and clear policy direction, saying Trump’s approach to power often turns threats into negotiation opportunities. Addressing the wider security crisis, Bakare said the unending assaults in the Middle Belt, North-West and South-East reveal the depth of Nigeria’s internal fractures, leaving many communities feeling unprotected and ignored. He criticised lawmakers and foreign affairs officials for reacting slowly and placing political interests above national stability. Bakare outlined several steps he believes are necessary to restore order, including stronger military engagement, community-driven policing under federal oversight, deployment of veterans and paramilitary personnel, improved surveillance technology and closer security collaboration with the United States. He also called for a victims’ register and a nationwide reconciliation effort led by President Bola Tinubu.

UCH Resident Doctors Resume Work After Month-Long Nationwide Strike

Wale busari02 mins

Resident doctors at the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, have resumed work after a month-long nationwide strike. The industrial action, which began on November 1, was initiated by the Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) after the government failed to meet their demands. The doctors had called for a 200 percent increase in the Consolidated Medical Salary Structure, full implementation of new allowances proposed since July 2022, immediate recruitment of clinical staff, and the removal of bureaucratic delays affecting the replacement of existing doctors. Dr. Gboyega Ajibola, President of UCH NARD, said the NARD National Executive Council met on November 29 to reassess the situation and determined that the government had satisfied most of their immediate and short-term demands. He added that a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed with the government, outlining the association’s demands and the timelines for implementation. “Based on the satisfactory terms of the MoU, the NARD NEC decided to suspend the industrial action and give the government four weeks to execute the agreed points,” Ajibola explained. In line with NARD protocol, each centre held a congress on December 1 to brief members on the development. Following the briefing, centre presidents instructed all resident doctors to return to their duty posts. Ajibola confirmed that all resident doctors at UCH resumed work on Monday.
