Following intensive talks, we are pleased to announce that the Peace Deal between the United States of America and Islamic Republic of Iran has been REACHED. Both sides have declared the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon. The official signing ceremony will be on Friday, 19 June in Switzerland. We would like to thank the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran for their commitment to finding a diplomatic solution to the conflict. We would also like to extend our sincere appreciation to our brothers in this mediation effort, the great leadership of State of Qatar, for their support in reaching this agreement. I would also especially thank the visionary leadership of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Republic of Türkiye for their immense contributions in this regard. With the agreement now in place, mediators will facilitate a series of meetings this week. These pre-implementation discussions will lay the foundation for the technical talks and the official signing ceremony. @realDonaldTrump @JDVance @SecRubio @SteveWitkoff @SEPeaceMissions @drpezeshkian @mb_ghalibaf @araghchi

"I will fix my supporters unruly characters if I get to government..."

I don’t know what other people think, but Dumfries, Konate, Bernardo Silva & Cucurella isn’t a good transfer window 😂

When you fact check him - you will prefer to be a lone & rethink your opinion about him. Obi is not the man for Nigeria.

The earliest memories of what crusades were being taken by my sisters to the one Prophet Obadare used to hold on the grounds of the National stadium Surulere in the early 80s. Then, we'd begin the long walk with thousands of other Lagosians because buses were never enough.

Once we are able to elect Peter Obi, rascals and thugs will stop contesting for president because we will have raised the bar so high. Then, a new era begins.

The best prank of all time.😹😹🔥😹

The Nigerian state needs a way to raise revenue. Regressive approaches like this are however not ideal. We need expansionary ways that prioritize export focused sectors and encourage diaspora and foreign investment. These are hard things to achieve especially when propaganda is your only forte. We need an austere leader who understands trade and value creation. Look at all the candidates in the forthcoming elections and only one fits the bill.

Igbos never voted for Buhari or Tinubu but they became president— Hon Ben Nwankwo asks if Igbos are really influential as a people.

No tact, No emotional intelligence.

Bro, no team in Africa matches this current Moroccan team. Lets be honest

QUICK NOTE I am glad Nigerians are engaged in discussions about the management of the economy, both fiscal and monetary. This matters even more as we head towards the polls, dealing with the gains, pains and fears of the reforms implemented thus far. The post below is useful, but it also shows why economic issues require nuance beyond headlines. See...., the claim that the #IMF asked Nigeria to impose fuel and telecom taxes is substantially true, but incompletely framed. That framing may reflect the trust deficit that has built up over time with such statements, but we should not deepen it. We should help reduce it. The IMF did not simply say “impose fuel and telecom taxes now.” In its 2026 Article IV Staff Report, it said Nigeria may need further tax policy changes over the medium term, including increasing VAT, extending VAT to fuel products, rationalising tax exemptions, and introducing telecom excises. But it also added an important caveat. The timing of such reforms must consider poverty and food insecurity, and ensure that the cash transfer system is in place and funded. Paragraph 20, Fiscal Policy, page 17, states: “Further tax policy changes will likely be needed, such as increasing the VAT rate, extending VAT to fuel products, rationalising tax expenditures … and introducing telecom excises, to complement administrative gains. The timing of reforms must consider the poverty and food insecurity situation and ensure that the cash transfer system is in place and funded.” See: proshare.co/articles/imf-202… The Executive Board summary also notes that additional tax policy measures may be needed over the medium term, including to fund a scaled-up cash transfer programme for vulnerable households. Nigeria’s Executive Director also made the balancing point clear. The authorities are open to further tax policy adjustments, including possible VAT increases, VAT on fuel products, and telecom excises, but only when the cash transfer system is fully funded and operational, so the burden does not fall disproportionately on the vulnerable. See: proshare.co/articles/imf-com… via @proshare So, to the good people at @NigeriaStories, the “breaking news” version is not false. Perhaps, due to the editorial summary, it unwittingly overstated the message by omitting the IMF’s caveats on timing, sequencing, and social protection. Without holding brief for the @IMFNews or the @NigeriaGov, and without prejudice to the wider debate on whether taxes are the right solution, the more accurate framing is this: The IMF recommends that Nigeria consider further medium-term revenue measures, including extending VAT to fuel products and introducing telecom excises, but says timing should depend on poverty conditions and the readiness of funded cash-transfer protections. My regards.

When will Peter Obi stop telling lies? He lied that 10 Downing Street has 3 rooms. But the facts remains that 10 Downing Street is approximately 100 rooms. Lol 😆 Good morning ooh

This literally means she can’t be fired.
