Eniola Badmus Applauds Tinubu’s Economic Shift Amidst Rising Hardship
Nollywood star Eniola Badmus has commended the direction of Nigeria’s economy under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s leadership.
According to her, the country is seeing a positive shift, with reduced imports and increased exports—a development she believes points to economic growth and a move from a consumption-based to a production-oriented economy.
Sharing her views on Instagram, Badmus highlighted that for the year-to-date in 2024, Nigeria’s imports amounted to N24.44 trillion, while exports hit N38.59 trillion.
This results in a remarkable trade surplus of over N14 trillion within just eight months.
She emphasized that this kind of surplus is unprecedented in Nigeria’s economic history, underscoring the country’s progress under Tinubu’s administration.
Her remarks come at a time when many Nigerians are facing significant economic challenges, with inflation and the rising cost of living sparking widespread concern.
Just last month, large protests, dubbed the ‘End Hunger Protests,’ saw millions of Nigerians voicing their frustrations over the worsening economic hardship.
Despite these struggles, Badmus remains optimistic about the direction in which the economy is heading, believing that the focus on increasing production over consumption is a crucial step forward for the nation’s long-term stability.
In her view, this shift is a sign of hope for the future, even as the country grapples with the immediate difficulties that many are currently facing.
She hopes that these changes will eventually translate into broader relief for Nigerians and more sustainable economic growth.

Bolanle Ninalowo Explains Why He Supported His Daughter’s Navel Piercing
Bolanle Ninalowo, a celebrated Nollywood actor, has opened up about his decision to support his teenage daughter, Aliyah, in piercing her navel.
During a conversation with media personality VJ Adams, Ninalowo delved into the close bond he shares with his daughter, who recently turned 18.
He revealed that Aliyah had initially expressed a desire to pierce her tongue. However, he admitted feeling uncomfortable with the idea and suggested an alternative.
In a video that has now gone viral, Ninalowo explained his reasoning.
He shared that he ultimately allowed Aliyah to pierce her navel, seeing it as a less permanent and less intrusive choice compared to a tongue piercing.

The actor, known for his roles in hit movies like Picture Perfect and Breaded Life, emphasized the importance of building trust and understanding with his daughter.
He wanted Aliyah to know that he respects her autonomy while still offering guidance.
To demonstrate his support, Ninalowo personally drove her to the piercing studio and even covered the cost of the procedure himself.
Speaking fondly about their relationship, Ninalowo said that fostering an open line of communication with Aliyah has always been a priority for him.
He believes that allowing her the freedom to make certain decisions, while ensuring she feels his unwavering support, is key to maintaining their strong father-daughter bond.
