Malcolm Omirhobo Calls Tinubu a Hypocrite Over Electricity Bill Advice
Human rights lawyer Malcolm Omirhobo has sharply criticized President Bola Tinubu, calling him a hypocrite following his recent comments during a presidential media chat.
Omirhobo’s remarks came after Tinubu advised Nigerians to find ways to manage and control their electricity bills, including switching off their lights to save energy.
In a post on X, Omirhobo accused the president of hypocrisy, pointing out that while Tinubu is advising Nigerians to cut back on electricity usage, he has not taken steps to reduce the extravagant costs of governance.
The lawyer argued that before asking Nigerians to make sacrifices, the president should first consider cutting down on government expenses, which he described as unsustainable and excessive.
Since Tinubu assumed office in May 2023, Nigerians have been struggling with an increase in basic services.
One of the most notable changes was the hike in electricity tariffs, which many believe has put a greater financial strain on households.
On April 3, 2024, the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) raised the tariff for customers under the Band A classification, pushing the rate from N66 to N225 per kilowatt-hour.
Nigerian comedian Seyi Law takes to social media as he defends President Bola Tinubu. The comedian stated that the president has done a lot in his administration and claimed that Nigeria is safer and economically sound under his administration.
He then compared how things now to past years under the administration of others, and shared how things were bad. He claimed that now the economy is stabilized.
“Nigeria is safer now than 10 years ago. This government has killed more bandits than any government in Nigeria since the time of Jonathan. When last have you heard of bomb blast in Nigeria?”
It has been reported that fire occurred at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos (MMIA), Terminal 1. This fire incident occurred on Monday, 23rd of February, 2026.
Passengers at that terminal were spotted running away for safety after seeing the fire and the alarm.
The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) released a statement and shared that no life was lost and people were saved and avoided danger.
It has been reported that Kano State has closed down all entertainment spots across the state. This was stated to happen because of the ongoing Ramadan fast.
The federal government shared that the new law will take place from 18th of February, 10 pm, till the last day of Ramadan. This is in order for the people participating in it to truly focus on the fast.
