“I Didn’t Come to Make Money; I’m Here to Work” – Tinubu
President Bola Tinubu has firmly stated that his motivation for running for office was not financial gain but rather a commitment to serve the Nigerian people.
Speaking during a meeting with the Forum of Former Presiding Officers of the National Assembly, which included notable figures such as former Senate President Ken Nnamani, Tinubu emphasized his dedication to working for the nation after receiving the mandate from voters.
In his address, Tinubu expressed gratitude for the trust placed in him by Nigerians, asserting that he is focused on delivering meaningful results across various sectors, particularly in education and economic stability.
“I didn’t come to look for money or exploit the situation; I came to work,” he said, reiterating his resolve to honour the responsibilities of his office.
The gathering included 16 former leaders from the National Assembly, comprising past senate presidents, speakers of the House of Representatives, and their deputies.
Their presence underscored the significance of collaboration among past and present lawmakers in addressing the pressing issues facing the country.
Tinubu’s comments reflect his administration’s commitment to tackling challenges and making a positive impact on the lives of Nigerians.
He is determined to implement policies that will foster long-term growth and stability, ensuring that the resources of the country are utilized effectively for the benefit of all citizens.
As he continues to outline his vision for Nigeria, Tinubu’s focus remains on transparency, accountability, and the pursuit of progress, aiming to inspire confidence among the populace and encourage active participation in the democratic process.
Rev. Father Thomas Oyode, the kidnapped Rector of Immaculate Conception Seminary in Agenebode, Edo State, has regained his freedom nearly two weeks after being abducted by gunmen.
The priest was abandoned in a bush in Kogi State following coordinated efforts by security forces, including police, who carried out air surveillance over the forest where he was held.
The kidnappers had demanded a ransom of N200 million, but while negotiations were underway, security agencies tracked Fr. Oyode’s location. It remains unclear if any ransom was paid for his release.
The rescue was confirmed by AIG Arungwa Nwazue, Assistant Inspector General of Police, Zone 5, Benin. Fr. Oyode was abducted on October 27 during a prayer session at the seminary in Ivhianokpodi, Etsako East LGA, Edo State.

The Nigerian Defence Headquarters has confirmed the emergence of a new terrorist group known as ‘Lukarawas’ in northwestern Nigeria. The Director of Defence Media Operations, Maj.-Gen. Edward Buba, disclosed this during a briefing in Abuja on Thursday, November 7.
According to Buba, the group originated in Niger following the recent coup, which led to a breakdown of military cooperation between Nigeria and Niger.
This disruption allowed Lukarawas fighters to infiltrate northern parts of Sokoto and Kebbi States, using difficult terrains and remote areas to evade detection.
Buba noted that some locals initially welcomed the group, unaware of its intentions, and failed to alert security forces.
He assured Nigerians that the military has intensified intelligence and surveillance efforts to counter the group, emphasizing that troops are tracking and working to eliminate the threat posed by Lukarawas.
