Former President Donald Trump has issued a challenge to President Joe Biden for a second presidential debate. The first debate ended disastrously for Biden, with moments where he struggled to complete sentences and thoughts.

His performance ignited controversy within Democratic circles, fueling speculation about potential changes to the party’s nominee, who is 81 years old.

Trump took to Truth Social to propose a second “no holds barred” debate, suggesting a format free from moderator constraints.

This potential showdown is expected to draw considerable attention, given their political history and the current landscape.

Stay tuned for further developments as this story evolves.

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State has advised retirees against donating their pension to churches and mosques under the guise of thanksgiving or tithe.

He emphasized the importance of using pension funds to address family needs instead. Sanwo-Olu made these remarks during the 105th batch retirement bond certificate presentation ceremony for retirees in the state.

He underscored that the prompt payment of pensions reflects the Lagos State government’s steadfast dedication to its retirees.

According to Sanwo-Olu: “This is not meant to solve all family problems. It is about you, what you have earned and worked for.

“When they say they want to build a church or mosque and ask you to come out to pledge N3m, don’t do that. God will give you the wisdom to act, Sanwo-Olu has done his part.

Today, we mark the 105th Retirement Bond Certificate presentation, a historic milestone as we transition into a new era of Pension Administration called ‘Pay-As You-Go’.

“From now on, all retirees of the state government will be paid as they retire, provided all procedures and approvals have been completed before retirement.”

In a recent interview, former Senate President Adolphus Wabara disclosed that he rejected a ₦250 million bribe intended to secure his support for the controversial third-term agenda for then-President Olusegun Obasanjo in 2006.

Wabara recounted how the bribe was delivered at 1:30 a.m. in a black G-Wagon, emphasizing that his Soviet Union education, which ingrained a strong disdain for corruption, influenced his decision.

He also criticized current political leaders for using poverty as a tool to manipulate and control the electorate.
