Peter Obi Criticizes Religious Worship Practices, Calls for Productive Change
Former Anambra State Governor and Labour Party leader, Peter Obi, has sparked discussions on the need for change in religious worship practices, emphasizing a shift toward productivity.
In a recent interview, Obi argued that some aspects of worship culture negatively impact people’s well-being and productivity.
Obi’s statement, “We are going to turn night vigil into night shift so that people can be productive,” suggests that practices like extended night vigils could be restructured to support a healthier, more productive lifestyle.
He also highlighted the need to rethink the influence of both politics and religion, stating, “It’s attractive, politics and church, but it has to be dismantled.”
These remarks underscore Obi’s belief that worship should encourage a balanced lifestyle that aligns physical and spiritual well-being, fostering a productive society while honoring faith.
It has been reported that the Ebola virus is rising again and there have been some cases. This has caused fear in many, with talks of different viruses spreading.

FAAN shared that they have been on the lookout for travellers who may have symptoms, and so far there is none.
It has been reported that the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), has finally released the withheld results of 279 students.
It can be recalled that some results were held due to investigations of cheating. Some results proved to have traces of malpractice and were cancelled, but the ones without traces have been released and the students can finally move on.
JAMB also shared additional advice for students that might have not seen theirs: “Candidates whose results have not yet been released are advised to check their status by sending UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019 using the same phone number used for registration to view their released results.”
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
