Tinubu’s Support Could Pave Way For Igbo Presidency – Cubana Chief Priest Tells South-East

Wale busari04 mins

Socialite and businessman Cubana Chief Priest has called on people of the South-East to rally behind President Bola Tinubu ahead of the 2027 elections, arguing that such a move could improve the region’s political standing and possibly fast-track the release of Nnamdi Kanu. He praised a traditional ruler from the region for taking concerns directly to the President in Abuja, noting that engagement with the current administration is more productive than opposition from a distance. According to him, political alignment is crucial if the South-East hopes to achieve key objectives. “Igbo best stake is on Asiwaju,” he declared, maintaining that backing Tinubu would be a strategic decision. He stressed that Tinubu secured victory in the 2023 presidential election despite limited support from the South-East, suggesting that withholding votes did not alter the outcome. In his view, offering solid backing in 2027 could position the region to negotiate from a place of strength. “God bless you, Your Royal Highness for partaking in Nigeria. If Your Highness did not participate in Abuja, how Asiwaju wan take hear this message. If to say dem no record this video play for una, them for call his royal highness sell out say him don go collect money. Alignment is key, we no fit fight government, Asiwaju go free MNK. His Royal Highness don put am for Baba body. Let’s get along with Nigeria. Last election, Tinubu won without South-East, it’s clear he will win again. So why not give him the votes so he can do what we ask of him in return. Hopefully, he will hand over power to an Igbo man. He made Buhari president, a Hausa man. He made himself, a Yoruba man president. What makes you think he won’t make an Igbo man president if we clearly support him for one more term? Igbo best stake is on Asiwaju. Just think it out. Man has the best political structure in the country to win election make we no waste our votes.” Cubana Chief Priest concluded that strategic political cooperation could open the door for greater inclusion of the South-East in national leadership.

Wale busari02 mins

As Muslims across the country begin the Ramadan fast, President Bola Tinubu has called on Nigerians to use the sacred period to strengthen bonds of unity, promote peace and recommit to moral values that uplift society. He spoke on Wednesday at a Ramadan Tafsir held at the State House Mosque in Abuja, where he described the holy month as a time for sober reflection, self-examination and renewed dedication to doing good. “We start this Ramadan with all the teaching that it brings to us all. But the main principle is to do good to people, to share love and faith, and to forgive sins. I say, if I have sinned, forgive me as Nigerians.” The President emphasized that Ramadan should inspire acts of kindness and reconciliation, encouraging citizens to extend compassion to one another and work collectively toward national progress. He further appealed to Nigerians of all religious backgrounds to pray for lasting peace in the country and support efforts to combat terrorism, banditry and other security concerns. Also speaking, Abdulwahid Suleiman, Chief Imam of the State House Mosque, thanked Allah for granting Muslims the opportunity to witness another Ramadan. He offered prayers for wisdom, strength and good health for the President and his team, while seeking peace, stability and prosperity for the nation.

BREAKING: Tinubu Signs Electoral Act 2026 Amendment

Wale busari02 mins

President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday signed the Electoral Act 2026 (Amendment) into law, following the Independent National Electoral Commission’s release of the timetable for the 2027 general elections. The ceremony took place around 5:00 pm at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, with principal officers of the National Assembly present. The bill had been passed by the National Assembly just a day earlier. The amendment has reignited debates over the electronic transmission of election results. Civil society groups and opposition figures have long called for results to be transmitted in real time from polling units to INEC’s central server, arguing it would reduce manipulation and enhance credibility. Protesters had disrupted the National Assembly last week, demanding live transmission, citing the collapse of INEC’s Results Viewing Portal during the 2023 elections, which fueled widespread allegations of rigging. While the All Progressives Congress supports adopting technology in elections, some stakeholders argue that areas with weak telecommunications infrastructure may need a phased or hybrid approach, allowing manual collation where electronic systems fail. The 2027 general elections are scheduled for February 20 for Presidential and National Assembly polls, and March 6 for Governorship and State Houses of Assembly elections.

Wale busari02 mins

Veteran Nollywood movie marketer Akeem Olatunji Balogun, popularly known as Olasco Films, has hit back at actors Wale Akorede and Austin Emmanuel, labeling them ingrates over recent allegations against him. Olasco made the comments while responding to claims from the actors in separate interviews. Wale Akorede had earlier accused Olasco of allegedly keeping all the proceeds from a movie produced for him about 16 years ago, saying he has not forgiven the filmmaker for the incident. Similarly, Austin Emmanuel claimed that Olasco Films and its affiliate, Toymax Films, had blacklisted him in the industry. Emmanuel, who has been absent from the screen for years, also alleged that Toymax had a personal dispute involving his girlfriend. Speaking in an interview with actor Tunde Ola-Yusuf, Olasco dismissed the allegations, insisting he had supported both actors at different points in their careers. He revealed that he had paid Akorede ₦2 million for the movie, at a time when production costs typically ranged between ₦700,000 and ₦1 million. Describing his relationship with Akorede as akin to helping someone only to be forgotten, Olasco insisted the claims of unpaid work were false. He also suggested that Austin Emmanuel’s accusations were an attempt to gain attention, noting that he had promoted the film that first brought Emmanuel into the spotlight.
