On Sunday, Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, fired back at Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed, declaring that he would not allow the governor’s presidential aspirations to take off, calling them “dead on arrival.”

Wike, who has long been a prominent figure in Nigerian politics, emphasized that he wasn’t the first, nor would he be the last, member of an opposition party to serve in the government.

A statement from Wike’s media assistant, Lere Olayinka, added more context to the disagreement. It pointed out that Wike’s appointment as a minister was an excuse for Governor Mohammed’s inability to lead the PDP Governors’ Forum, suggesting that the Bauchi governor’s leadership skills were lacking.

Olayinka also noted that despite his current position, Wike was not the first opposition member to join the ruling party.

The statement questioned the actions of Mohammed, who, according to Wike, had previously defected from the ANPP (All Nigeria Peoples Party) to the PDP after initially being elected as a senator.

Nigerian Comedian, Mr Macaroni expresses dissatisfaction with the Governor of Lagos State over traffic issues.

It can be reported that Lagos has been suffering through a serious traffic phase. The reason behind this was revealed to be the Independence Bridge repairs.

Michelle Obama recently shared that when she first met Barack Obama, he wasn’t “financially sound.”

The couple crossed paths in 1988 when Barack joined a law firm in Chicago, where Michelle was already working. On a recent podcast episode she hosts with her brother, Craig, Michelle reflected on the importance of financial stability in a relationship.

During a conversation with British author Jay Shetty, Craig asked Michelle, “Would you be attracted to a guy who’s not financially stable when you meet him?”

Without hesitation, Michelle replied, “Uh, I married one.”

Craig, who seemed to have set her up for that response, laughed and jokingly said, “Don’t you like that alley-oop I just threw you? In basketball, you just point—you don’t even have to say it.”
