 Michael Aondoakaa, a former ministear of justice and attorney general of the federation (AGF), has stated that having a dual citizenship does not bar someone who was born in Nigeria from running for office there. This was stated by Aondoakaa during an interview on Arise TV on Tuesday, April 25, in response to the issue surrounding the supposed acquisition of Guinean citizenship by the incoming president, Bola Tinubu.  The former AGF responded to the controversy by saying;  "However, presuming it was in the petition, it is against the law for someone to run for president of Nigeria if they have dual citizenship either through naturalization or registration. "However, a person who was born in Nigeria but later acquired citizenship in another nation is still eligible to run for office. It would be strange to claim that Tinubu, the election winner, is a citizen of a different nation. The first thing you need to show is that he is not Nigerian by birth. The first test is whether

 Some of the estates rising up in Abuja and other regions of the nation, according to Chris Mishela, a lawyer with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), are thought to be the products of fraud and money laundering. Mishela said they are coming closer to people hiding under real estate to commit money laundering and other financial crimes while speaking at a training session for journalists on how to report on economic and financial crimes in Benin, Edo State. He stated:  "In Abuja, there are a lot of estates popping up everywhere, and we suspect that the source of these cash is illegal money. The money is obtained illegally, either from the government or from international criminals, and is then laundered through the real estate industry. Real estate is one of the designated and non-designated professions that is required to provide a full disclosure by the establishment. "Thus, the EFCC is actually trying to investigate that component, and the new money launde

A woman can love you even if you have no money, but she will love you more if you have money, according to Apostle Johnson Suleman, the general overseer of the Omega Fire Ministries, in a sermon to his congregation on poverty and the value of money in marriage and romantic relationships. He continued by saying that while love is a feeling in the absence of money, it comes to life when money is involved. In the video, Apostle Suleman said: "Poverty is a concern, and most marriage issues are financial issues rather than demonic issues. Because of poverty, "Yes I do" can turn into "I am done." There is usually chicken on the table, so you hear "I love you" all the time. A lady can love you even if you don't have money, but she loves you even more when you have. "Love is a living entity with money; without it, it is just a sensation. Try to make money because it's like manure in a relationship. Never spend money before you have earned it, and

After Israel Adesanya defeated Alex Pereira at UFC 287 to reclaim the middleweight title this morning, rapper Drake was awarded a hefty $2.7 million. The New Zealander, who is of Nigerian descent, regained the 185-pound title barely five months after losing it to Pereira, a fierce opponent who has twice defeated him in kickboxing.  After betting $1.6 million on Adesanya to win that bout, Drake lost the bet, but in his rematch with Pereira, he made up for it.  The Canadian reportedly gambled $500,000 on Adesanya to win, which paid out $885,000, and $400,000 on him to win via knockout, which paid out a whopping $1.8 million, according to Mirror UK. After the fight, when asked about Drake's wager, "Stylebender" responded, "Shoutout to everyone who bet on me but you have to understand that when I step into the octagon I put my life on the line.

  Dele Alake, who serves as President-elect Bola Tinubu's Special Communications Advisor, responded to Chimamanda Adichie's open letter to US President Joe Biden in which she questioned the timing of his congratulations to Bola Ahmed Tinubu. In the letter, Chimamanda referred to Nigeria's democracy as hollow, insisted that the election for president in 2023 was tainted by a variety of irregularities, and questioned why the US President would congratulate the winner. Her letter has sparked responses from everyone.  Alake argued that, in contrast to Chimamanda's accusations, democracy is prospering in Nigeria in his response to her letter. He referred to the renowned author as a "unrepentant Igbo jingoist" who backed Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, solely because he is Igbo. He added that Obi would not have won the polls because of his ethnicity and religious campaigning.  According to Alake, the fact that Obi lost the election does no
