Obasanjo Dismisses Igbo Paternity Rumors, Backs Market
After years of leaving rumors unaddressed, former President Olusegun Obasanjo has finally responded to claims that his paternity is rooted in the Igbo ethnic group from Anambra State.
Speaking during a meeting with the leadership of the Ndigbo Amaka Progressive Market Association at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Abeokuta, Ogun State, Obasanjo dismissed the rumors, saying they merely make him laugh. He emphasized that no Nigerian should feel unwelcome in any part of the country, stressing the importance of unity.
During the meeting, Obasanjo also discussed the group’s plans to establish the Owerri Central Market, a project that has been in consideration since the creation of Imo State. He expressed his support for the initiative and his willingness to lead the marketing efforts, noting that the market could become the best of its kind in the country. Obasanjo also appreciated the interest and support shown by the governor, expressing confidence in the project’s success.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
