Published

Socialite Cubana Chiefpriest says there is no way he will be able to help incarcerated leader of IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, secure his release if he is with the opposition parties.

His comment comes hours after social critic, Very Dark Man, called him out for working with a political support group for President Bola Tinubu’s re-election.

In a video posted on his page this morning, VDM shared a clip showing members of the support group which included Chief Priest, meeting with the Imo state governor, Hope Uzodinma, who is also a member of the APC.

VDM in his video opined that ChiefPriest is hypocritical in his support for the APC. He referred to a post ChiefPriest made in November 2025 in which he spoke directly to President Tinubu and said the APC will not secure up to 10, 000 votes in the South East during the 2027 presidential election if Nnamdi Kanu remains in prison. Chief Priest in that his post, mentioned that Nnamdi Kanu is the Supreme Leader of the South East and that only the release of the IPOB leader can guarantee votes from the South East for President Tinubu in the 2027 general election.

VDM wondered what has now changed for ChiefPriest to be campaigning for President Tinubu despite the fact that Kanu still remains in prison custody. He also averred that ChiefPriest and other South East leaders have gone silent on their calls for Kanu’s release and are now pursuing their personal gains.

Reacting to VDM’s callout, ChiefPriest in a post shared on his Instastories, said that he cannot help Nnamdi Kanu if he remains in the opposition, He said he has always been an APC member and that despite the fact that he is an APC member, he campaigned for Peter Obi during the 2023 general election. He said with regards to the 2027 elections, he will work towards President Tinubu’s re-election. He also mentioned he will be seeking to run for a seat in the House of Representatives.

After Bitten To De@th By Snake, Another Snake Reportedly Found Under Ambulance Carrying Nanyah’s Remains Back Home

Published

on

A London-based teacher and culture ambassador, Uche Nworah, has shared a shocking incident that reportedly occurred while the remains of late singer Ifunanya Nwangene popularly known as Nanyah, were being transported to Enugu.

Nworah, who claims to have been Facebook friends with Ifunanya’s uncle for years, revealed details he says were shared directly by her uncle during a phone conversation.

Contrary to earlier reports circulating on social media, Nworah clarified that Ifunanya did not reside on the ground floor of her Abuja apartment but on the second floor.

This, he noted, raises questions about how snakes could have accessed her living space, as ground-floor access via drains or toilets would not apply.

According to Nworah, the ambulance carrying Ifunanya’s body broke down while en route to Enugu, in line with her father’s wishes.

The breakdown caused a delay as a replacement vehicle had to be called to continue the transport.

While waiting for the replacement ambulance, a snake was reportedly found under the broken-down vehicle.

Sharing the uncle’s account on Facebook, Nworah wrote:

“…Beyond social media claims, I received a call from Ifunanya’s uncle, who has been my Facebook friend for many years. During our conversation, he made disclosures that some may consider disturbing, while others may view them as mere coincidences.

He stated that contrary to widespread reports on social media, Ifunanya did not live on the ground floor of her residence but on the second floor. This raises questions about how snakes could have gained access to her apartment. Had she lived on the ground floor, one might argue that the snakes entered through drainage systems or toilets, but this explanation appears less straightforward given that she lived on the second floor.

He further recounted a strange incident that occurred while her body was being transported to Enugu State in an ambulance, in accordance with her father’s wishes. According to him, the ambulance conveying her remains broke down along the Abuja Expressway, necessitating calling for a replacement vehicle. During the wait he said, a snake was discovered beneath the broken-down ambulance and was subsequently killed.

While these incidents may be entirely unrelated and purely coincidental, they nonetheless raise questions and leave room for reflection.”

The revelation has sparked discussion online, with many questioning the unusual events surrounding the singer’s death.

FMINO PRESS RELEASE: CAC AT 35 YEARS HAS BECOME A PILLAR OF NIGERIA’S ECONOMIC CREDIBILITY – INFORMATION MINISTER

Published

on

 

The Honourable Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, has reaffirmed the Federal Government’s commitment to transparency, institutional reform, and ease of doing business, describing effective inter-agency collaboration as critical to the success of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

The Minister made this known while receiving the Registrar-General and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), Hussaini Ishaq Magaji, SAN, who led the delegation of the Commission on a courtesy visit to the Ministry ahead of the Commission’s 35th anniversary celebration (CAC@35).

Idris commended the Corporate Affairs Commission for what he described as remarkable institutional reforms that have repositioned the Commission as “a key driver of Nigeria’s business environment and economic credibility.” He noted that CAC’s transformation, particularly through technology and digitisation, aligns strongly with the Federal Government’s broader reform agenda.

The Minister praised CAC’s role in improving the ease of doing business, strengthening corporate governance, and enhancing investor confidence, stressing that such reforms are vital to national development. He also acknowledged the Commission’s contribution to Nigeria’s recent delisting from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) grey list, describing it as a major milestone that reflects growing global confidence in Nigeria’s regulatory and transparency frameworks.

According to him, the progress recorded under the Tinubu administration, including rising foreign reserves, easing inflation, improved investor confidence, and economic stabilisation, cannot be fully told without recognising the role of reform-driven institutions such as the Corporate Affairs Commission.

The Minister further encouraged CAC to intensify public engagement and advocacy to ensure Nigerians are fully informed about the Commission’s innovations, services, and achievements. He assured the Commission of the Ministry’s support in amplifying its reforms and programmes through strategic communication and public enlightenment.

Earlier, the Registrar-General of CAC, Hussaini Ishaq Magaji, SAN, said the courtesy visit was to formally invite the Honourable Minister to the Commission’s 35th anniversary celebration and to present a scorecard of reforms achieved under the current administration.

He explained that CAC has transitioned from a largely manual, location-bound registry to a fully digital, technology-driven institution, with services now accessible in real time from anywhere in the country. He disclosed that the Commission has expanded its digital offerings from 33 services to over 100 online services, deployed artificial intelligence for business name reservation and registration, and introduced Application Programming Interface (API) services to support banks, embassies, security agencies, and other institutions.

The Registrar-General highlighted the operationalisation of the Beneficial Ownership Register, noting that it has strengthened transparency, boosted investor confidence, and positioned Nigeria as a global reference point for corporate disclosure. He added that CAC’s reforms have helped bring over four million informal businesses into the tax net, improved security by registering POS operators, and supported small and medium-scale enterprises through free business registrations in partnership with relevant agencies.

He also announced the Commission’s upcoming partnership with Google to further strengthen its digital infrastructure and service delivery, as well as the launch of an AI-powered public support platform to guide users on corporate and regulatory matters.
He thanked the Honourable Minister for the warm reception and support, and formally invited him to the CAC@35 anniversary celebration scheduled for February 9, 2026.

The event was attended by the Permanent Secretary of Information and National Orientation, Mr Ogbodo Chinasa Nnam, Director National Archives, Dr. Evelyn Odigboh, Director Public Relations and Protocol, Dr. Haruna Suleiman, and the Special Assistant, Administration to the Honourable Minister, Dr. Sunday Baba, fnipr.
