IMPI Supports Tinubu’s Policies, Sees Economic Benefits
The Independent Media and Policy Initiative (IMPI) has endorsed President Bola Tinubu’s policies, suggesting they will positively influence the Nigerian economy despite some short-term challenges. Niyi Akinsiju, Chairman of IMPI, drew parallels between Tinubu’s policy approach and that of former Western leaders, noting how initially criticized policies later proved successful. He highlighted how President Ronald Reagan’s economic strategies, once dubbed “voodoo” economics, eventually led to significant prosperity, drawing a similar hopeful outlook for Tinubu’s initiatives.
Akinsiju also detailed IMPI’s analysis of Tinubu’s recent speech, pointing out the cost-effectiveness of compressed natural gas (CNG) compared to petrol. He praised the administration’s ongoing projects, including the Consumer Credit Corporation and the Nigeria Education Loan Fund, which have already disbursed over N2.5 billion. Additionally, Tinubu’s iDICE program, designed to boost the tech industry, promises job creation and innovation. IMPI also commended Tinubu for reducing debt servicing costs and enhancing national revenue without raising taxes or increasing debt.
The Nigeria Hydrological Services Agency (NIHSA) has alerted Nigerians residing in flood-prone areas to relocate, following the release of water from Cameroon’s Lagdo Dam into River Niger and River Benue.
The release, which began on September 18, 2024, poses flood risks to 11 states, including Adamawa, Kogi, Benue, and Bayelsa.
NIHSA urges individuals to clear drainages and avoid floodplains. This comes days after severe flooding in Borno killed over 30 people.
Israel admitted to initiating a “new era” of war after two consecutive days of explosive attacks targeting Hezbollah in Lebanon.
On Tuesday, pager explosions killed several, including children, and wounded over 2,800. A second wave on Wednesday, involving walkie-talkies and phones, killed at least 20 and injured 450.
One explosion occurred during a Hezbollah funeral, with reports suggesting Hezbollah’s elite Radwan unit was heavily impacted. Israel believes the death toll is higher than officially reported.
In a recent Instagram post, Nigerian entertainment figure Soso Soberekon advised women to focus on men with a clear vision and long-term plans instead of being swayed by physical attributes.
He highlighted that a big penis won’t raise children and encouraged women to seek meaningful relationships with partners who can build a future.
Soberekon’s message stirred a range of reactions online, sparking a lively conversation in the comments.
