President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has nominated Dr. Bernard Mohammed Doro from Plateau State for confirmation by the Senate as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The announcement was made on Tuesday by Bayo Onanuga, the President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy. In a letter to the National Assembly, President Tinubu requested that Dr. Doro be screened and confirmed to occupy Plateau State’s ministerial slot. This follows Professor Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda’s election as National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in July. Yilwatda previously served as Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction. Born on January 23, 1969, in Kwall, Bassa Local Government Area of Plateau State, Dr. Doro has over 20 years of experience across clinical practice, pharmaceutical management, strategic leadership, and community engagement in both Nigeria and the United Kingdom. Dr. Doro holds degrees in Pharmacy and Law, an MBA focused on IT-driven business strategy, and a Master’s degree in Advanced Clinical Practice. He is also an Independent Prescriber and Advanced Clinical Practitioner, with extensive frontline experience in the UK’s National Health Service (NHS), including urgent care, walk-in centres, general practice, and hospital settings. Beyond his professional work, Dr. Doro has been actively involved in youth mentorship and social impact initiatives, contributing to communities both in the Nigerian diaspora and at home.

Wale busari02 mins

Prince Emmanuel Kanu, brother of IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu, and his lawyer, Aloy Ejimakor, have been remanded in custody by a Magistrate Court in Kuje, Abuja. The two were arrested during the #FreeNnamdiKanuNow protest on Monday, October 20, and arraigned on Tuesday alongside 11 other individuals. They are facing charges of breach of public peace brought by the police. The protest caused major disruptions in Abuja, affecting workers and commuters across the city. Authorities stated that the demonstration violated an existing court order restricting protests in certain areas. Last week, the Federal High Court in Abuja had prohibited Omoyele Sowore and other protesters from demonstrating near sensitive locations, including the Aso Rock Villa, National Assembly, Force Headquarters, Court of Appeal, Eagle Square, and Shehu Shagari Way, until the hearing of a pending motion. The injunction was granted by Justice Mohammed Umar after an ex-parte application by the police, represented by lawyer Wisdom Madaki, on behalf of the federal government.

TikTok Star Geh Geh Reacts After 3 Million-Follower Account Gets Banned

TikTok Star Geh Geh Reacts After 3 Million-Follower Account Gets Banned

Wale busari02 mins

Nigerian TikTok star Geh Geh has publicly expressed his frustration after his account, which had over 3 million followers, was banned by the platform. In a detailed video message, Geh Geh criticized TikTok for what he described as unfair treatment, saying the ban made him feel like a “useless Nigerian.” He claimed that many accounts were being taken down without clear reasons and lamented the lack of direct communication from the platform. He also called out friends and acquaintances who celebrated his misfortune online. “You are rejoicing over another person’s pain and suffering,” he said, pointing out that instead of offering support, they posted about his account ban on social media. Despite the setback, Geh Geh stressed his resilience, acknowledging that life has its highs and lows. “Life is up and down; 365 days in a year, there’s no way I can be happy every day. Some days are good, some days are bad, but whatever happens, I am equal to the task,” he said. He further encouraged people to take responsibility for their own problems rather than relying on others to fix them. Geh Geh’s experience highlights ongoing concerns over TikTok’s content moderation practices in Nigeria, where millions of videos have been removed for alleged violations of community guidelines. In the first quarter of 2025 alone, more than 3.6 million videos were deleted from Nigerian accounts, marking a significant rise from previous periods. Geh Geh’s TikTok account with over 3 million followers, has been suspended. pic.twitter.com/qNRukirsnw — Just Eniola 💜 (@JustEniola01) October 21, 2025

Benue Lawmaker Ojema Ojotu Defects To APC, Giving Ruling Party Complete Control Of State’s Federal Seats

Benue Lawmaker Ojema Ojotu Defects To APC from PDP

Wale busari02 mins

Ojema Ojotu, the House of Representatives member for Apa/Agatu Federal Constituency in Benue State, has formally defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC). Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu made the announcement during Tuesday’s plenary session, reading Ojotu’s letter to the House of Representatives. With Ojotu’s defection, the APC now controls all 11 federal constituencies in Benue State, marking complete dominance of the state’s representation in the House. In his letter, Ojotu cited the ongoing internal crisis within the PDP as the reason for his departure. “After consulting my constituents, family, and political associates, I have decided to leave the PDP for the APC,” he stated. The move immediately sparked controversy. Deputy Minority Leader Aliyu Madaki of the New Nigeria Peoples Party invoked Section 68(1)(g) of the Constitution, urging that Ojotu’s seat be declared vacant for leaving the party that sponsored his election. House Majority Leader Ibrahim Halims countered the argument, maintaining that a member may leave a party if it is embroiled in unresolved crises that threaten their political future. Deputy Speaker Kalu welcomed Ojotu to the APC and assured him of the party’s full support. Ojotu’s defection is part of a broader wave of lawmakers moving to the APC in 2025, a trend that opposition parties have attributed to pressure from the ruling government — claims President Bola Tinubu has denied, urging other parties to address their internal issues.

Alex Otti Refutes Defection Rumours, Affirms Loyalty To Labour Party

Governor Alex Otti Denies Defecting To APC, Says Rumour Is Cheap Propaganda

Wale busari02 mins

Abia State Governor Alex Otti has dismissed reports circulating on social media claiming that he has defected from the Labour Party (LP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC). Addressing the rumours, the state’s Commissioner for Information, Prince Okey Kanu, described the claim as baseless propaganda being spread by political opponents unsettled by Otti’s growing popularity and achievements in governance. Kanu emphasised that Governor Otti remains a loyal and active member of the Labour Party, the platform through which he was overwhelmingly elected by the people of Abia. He said the governor’s attention remains fixed on delivering effective leadership, not political distractions. “Governor Alex Otti is a proud member of the Labour Party, focused on rebuilding Abia, restoring accountability, and ensuring that citizens enjoy the real dividends of democracy,” Kanu stated. He added that just last week, during the October edition of Governor Alex Otti Speaks to Abians, the governor made it clear that he had no interest in political defections or alliances, stressing that his commitment lies in transforming Abia State and serving its people with integrity. According to Kanu, Otti’s administration continues to pursue a clear development agenda built on transparency, fiscal discipline, infrastructure renewal, youth empowerment, and economic growth — principles that align perfectly with the Labour Party’s core values. He urged residents to disregard the false reports, describing them as a deliberate attempt by detractors to distract the government and undermine the visible progress being achieved across the state.

Rita Daniels Says She Never Approved Regina Daniels’ Marriage To Ned Nwoko

Wale busari02 mins

Nollywood actress Rita Daniels has revealed that she was never in support of her daughter Regina Daniels’ marriage to billionaire politician Senator Ned Nwoko, despite widespread assumptions that she encouraged the union. In a resurfaced interview with BBC Igbo, recorded on October 7, 2025, Rita explained that Regina made the decision on her own, without her knowledge or approval. “I never wanted my daughter to marry Ned Nwoko, but she insisted. I didn’t even know when their relationship started,” she said. The actress said she has been wrongly accused of arranging the marriage, but she has chosen to absorb the criticism to shield her daughter from public backlash. “People keep blaming me for it, but that’s not true. I just decided to take the blame rather than let them attack her,” she added. The interview’s reemergence has reignited online debate, with fans divided between those who believe Rita’s account and others who think she played a role in the controversial union.
