N8,000 Can Transform a Youth’s Future – Shettima

In a time of soaring living costs in Nigeria, Vice President Kashim Shettima’s claim that “N8,000 can change a youth’s life” has drawn significant criticism.
This amount, less than $10, is seen as inadequate given the current high inflation and the rising prices of essentials.
Such a statement reflects a profound disconnect between the leadership and the daily struggles of ordinary Nigerians.
N8,000 barely covers basic expenses and does not address the deeper issues such as unemployment, poor education, and lack of infrastructure.
This comment suggests a lack of understanding of the severe economic challenges faced by Nigerian youths and raises concerns about the government’s commitment to meaningful reform.
Effective change requires more than symbolic gestures; it demands substantial policy efforts focused on job creation, education, and infrastructure. Leaders must acknowledge these systemic issues and engage in creating genuine solutions.
The backlash against Shettima’s remark highlights the urgent need for policies that truly support the youth and address their real needs, rather than offering inadequate solutions that fail to recognize their struggles.

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.”
