LeBron James Steps Away from Social Media, Cites Negativity in Sports Coverage

LeBron James, the NBA’s all-time leading scorer and Los Angeles Lakers star, has announced a temporary break from social media.
The 39-year-old made the announcement on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram after sharing a post by Rich Kleiman, agent to NBA star Kevin Durant, criticizing the media’s focus on negativity.
Kleiman wrote, “With so much hate and negativity in the world today, it confuses me why some of the national sports media still think that the best way to cover sports is through negative takes… I, for one, find it all a waste of breath.” James shared the post, adding a simple comment: “AMEN!!”
In a follow-up post, James confirmed his social media hiatus, writing, “And with that said, I’ll holla at y’all! Getting off social media for the time being. Y’all take care.”
James, known for his strong presence on and off the court, is taking this break amidst ongoing discussions about the role of media in shaping public perceptions of athletes.

US Criticizes Nigerian Governors for Spending Lavishly Despite Hardship

The United States Embassy in Nigeria has raised concerns over the reckless spending habits of several Nigerian governors, accusing them of splurging public funds on luxury projects while citizens battle economic hardship.
On Tuesday, the embassy shared a report highlighting how some state leaders are spending billions on renovating or building lavish government residences and offices, despite the widespread suffering caused by current economic policies.
The report pointed out that while President Bola Tinubu has urged Nigerians to make sacrifices and endure the economic challenges, many governors appear to be doing the opposite.
One example cited was Oyo State, where Governor Seyi Makinde’s administration approved a massive N63.4 billion to renovate the Government House, calling the current structure “an embarrassment.”
In Gombe State, among the poorest in the country, Governor Inuwa Yahaya is spending N14.9 billion on a brand-new official residence, with an additional N14.23 billion going toward a new House of Assembly complex.
Sharing the report via its official X (formerly Twitter) page, the US embassy included remarks from groups advocating for transparency and accountability, noting that this kind of excessive spending undermines public trust and deepens inequality.

APC Says Tinubu Has Nothing to Fear and Cannot Be Defeated in 2027 Election

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, has declared that President Bola Tinubu is in a strong position ahead of the 2027 elections and has no reason to fear any opponent.
Speaking in Abuja during a visit by the APC League of Professionals to the party’s national headquarters, Yilwatda said the APC is fully prepared to secure victory for Tinubu and all its candidates at every level, from governorship to the state and national assemblies.
He credited the Tinubu administration’s achievements under the Renewed Hope Agenda as a key reason for the president’s growing support. Yilwatda highlighted initiatives such as the student loan programme, which he said has made higher education more accessible to children from poor families.
“For the first time in Nigeria’s history, the poorest child can now go to school without borrowing from anyone. That opportunity has been created by this government,” he said. He also pointed to a government-backed N1.5 billion investment into the Bank of Agriculture to support young Nigerians interested in farming, saying the administration is creating real opportunities for citizens.

Atiku Says Opposition Coalition Is to Protect Nigeria Not Fight Tinubu

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has explained the reason behind the formation of the new opposition coalition led by the African Democratic Congress (ADC). According to Atiku, the coalition was created to defend Nigeria’s democracy from what he sees as growing authoritarian tendencies and the manipulation of elections under the current ruling party.
He emphasized that the alliance is not about political heavyweights like himself, Peter Obi, Rotimi Amaechi, or Nasir El-Rufai battling for the 2027 presidency, but about safeguarding the country’s democratic future.
Atiku made it clear that the movement isn’t aimed at attacking President Tinubu, but rather focused on putting Nigeria first. “This isn’t about fighting Tinubu,” he said. “It’s about protecting democracy and making sure Nigerians come first.”
