David Mark Urges Reflection on Nigeria’s 64th Independence Day
As Nigeria marks its 64th independence anniversary, former Senate President David Mark is urging the nation to reflect on its past. In a statement from his Media Adviser, Paul Mumeh, Mark emphasized the importance of learning from past mistakes.
He acknowledged the challenges Nigeria faces, such as insecurity, poverty, disease, and underdevelopment, but also highlighted the country’s rich human and natural resources that can improve its situation if citizens work together. Mark recalled Nigeria’s difficult history, including the civil war and ongoing ethnic and religious conflicts, which he attributes to leadership failures and a lack of civic responsibility.
He warned against divisive language that exploits these differences, calling those who do so enemies of the country. Despite these challenges, Mark noted that Nigeria has made progress and encouraged political leaders to focus on the needs of the people. He expressed hope that with unity and cooperation, Nigeria can overcome its challenges and called for greater investments in businesses to promote economic growth and stability.

‘Government Prioritizes Money More’ — PDP Calls Out FG On New Tax Law
It has been shared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is calling on the federal government to suspend the tax law set to take effect on January 1, 2026.
This was revealed in a statement released by Ini Ememobong, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP. He stated that this new law shows how Nigerians and the masses will be affected, arguing that the government is prioritizing finance over security and other pressing matters.
“Rather than address these issues comprehensively, the Presidency has consciously minimized them and instead insisted that the commencement date must stand, despite the discrepancies,” the party said, adding that this “clearly shows where the priority of the government lies between Nigerians and money.”
