THIS MINISTER JUST RESIGNED NOW FROM TINUBU'S CABINET

 

Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu Resigns Nigeria’s Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, has stepped down from his position, signaling a major shift in the country’s power sector leadership. A resignation letter dated April 22, 2026, confirms his decision to leave office effective April 30, 2026, so he can fully concentrate on his governorship ambition in Oyo State. This development comes just weeks after the minister publicly denied reports of any such move, sparking fresh controversy over conflicting statements. In his letter addressed to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu through the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Adelabu expressed gratitude for the opportunity to serve, describing his appointment as a rare privilege. He explained that his resignation would allow for a smooth transition while he redirects his focus to his long-standing political ambition, which he traced back to 2016 during his time at the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Earlier denials by Adelabu and his media team who had dismissed a similar resignation letter as fake have now raised questions about whether the initial claims were strategic or if this represents a new decision influenced by evolving political dynamics.

POLITICS GO HOT IN 2027 .....BREAKING: Omo-Agege Declares for Delta Central Senate Seat in 2027

 

Former Deputy President of the Senate, Ovie Omo-Agege, has formally declared his intention to contest the Delta Central Senatorial District seat in the 2027 general elections under the platform of the All Progressives Congress.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, the former lawmaker said his decision followed extensive consultations with stakeholders, leaders, and constituents across the eight local government areas of Delta Central.

He described the move as a response to growing calls for his return to the National Assembly, noting that the Urhobo Nation requires experienced and result-driven representation in the Senate.

Omo-Agege, who served as Senator from 2015 to 2023 and held the position of Deputy President of the 9th Senate, highlighted his previous achievements in office, including the attraction of federal institutions and infrastructure projects to the region.

According to him, his renewed bid is focused on strengthening legislative impact, attracting more federal presence, and advancing development in key sectors such as education, healthcare, infrastructure, and job creation.

He pledged to work closely with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in supporting the Renewed Hope Agenda, while emphasizing the need for continuity in governance and economic reforms.

The former Deputy Senate President also called for unity within the APC in Delta State, stressing the importance of collective effort ahead of the 2027 elections.

He added that his ambition is driven by a commitment to ensure Delta Central maintains a strong and influential voice in national decision-making.

Read his full statement below:

DECLARATION OF INTENTION TO CONTEST THE DELTA CENTRAL SENATORIAL DISTRICT ELECTION, 2027 ON THE PLATFORM OF THE ALL PROGRESSIVES CONGRESS (APC) BY SENATOR OVIE OMO-AGEGE, CFR, KSJI

 

My beloved people of Delta Central, brothers and sisters of the Urhobo Nation, esteemed leaders of our great party, the APC, our revered kings and traditional rulers, respected elders, women, youths, and all stakeholders.

2. Driven by patriotic duty, resourceful service, and a hopeful vision for our future, I, Ovie Omo-Agege, CFR, KSJI, Deputy President of the 9th Senate, hereby declare my intention to contest the Delta Central Senatorial District seat in 2027 on the platform of the APC.

3. This is not a light decision. It is borne out of broad consultations with my family, leaders, and stakeholders across all eight Local Government Areas of Delta Central. It is a response to the humbling calls by our electorate, constituents, professionals, and supporters that I return to the Senate to serve our common good and give unflinching support to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

4. Across Delta Central — Ughelli North, Ughelli South, Udu, Okpe, Sapele, Uvwie, Ethiope East, and Ethiope West — there is clear consensus that the Urhobo Nation deserves an experienced, smart, resourceful, purpose-driven, compassionate, and courageous voice in the Senate once again.

5. After deep reflection on our people’s call, and having sought the face of our Lord Jesus Christ in prayer, I have concluded that service to my people is a divine duty. I therefore humbly yield to their call.

6. This decision is not about me. It is about elevating Delta Central to a place of respect,  infuence and action. It is about ensuring the 5th largest ethnic nationality in Nigeria plays its divine role with wisdom and strength in shaping our democracy. Our role in lawmaking, budgeting, and policy must be intentionally engaging and resourceful, not cosmetic, dull, or insipid.

7. From 2015 to 2023, with your support, I had the honour of serving as your Senator and was elected Deputy President of the 9th Senate. By your testimonies, I am humbled that those eight years remain our golden years in parliamentary leadership.

8. With support from the National Assembly and the trust of President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR, of blessed memory, we brought a modern federal polytechnic to our people; established a National Defence Space School; and secured a state-of-the-art oil and gas industrial park in Urhoboland to create jobs and boost local content. We also attracted the Federal University of Medical and Health Sciences, Kwale, to Delta State in recognition of the Ndokwa Nation’s contributions to Nigeria’s growth.

9. Across the district, we rehabilitated and modernised healthcare centres, set up ICT hubs in schools, rebuilt schools, reopened and constructed landing bays for riverine commerce, and improved electricity with transformers and solar streetlights. We delivered empowerment initiatives that moved families from survival to stability.

10. These are the essentials of true representative partnership: understanding how Abuja works and evolving ideas that practically benefit the people who sent us there as guardians of their interests. To God’s glory, together we proved that meaningful federal presence is possible, not fruitless rhetoric, excuses, or labouring in vain to dim the bright lights of the Urhobo Nation.

11. I am answering the overwhelming calls to return to the Senate because Delta Central cannot afford silence. It is time to improve. The Urhobo Nation’s Senate seat must not be silent. That is not our portion. It is a strategic seat that demands purpose and authority — a voice that brings federal projects to our people and commands respect for national progress.

12. We owe our people best-in-class leadership. Elect me, and I will deliver legislative leadership that moves bills from sponsorship to assent: defending Urhobo economic interests, expanding education and healthcare, and strengthening security. With Senate seniority, committee influence, and a national network, I pass laws, not file them.

13. On infrastructure, it is a Senator’s duty to work with the President and the Executive to advance our people’s development. This does not happen by wishful thinking. It requires purpose-driven networking backed by a capacity to support others.

14. I will collaborate with Mr. President, our party’s leadership, the National Assembly, and relevant MDAs to complete ongoing federal projects and attract new ones. My priorities are clear: roads for commerce, power for industries, schools for our children, and hospitals that save lives. Urhoboland will receive its rightful share from the centre.

15 . On jobs, we will advocate dedicated funding for SMEs, artisans, and agro-processors. We will partner with federal agencies to ensure our youth and women are not bystanders in oil, gas, maritime, and digital sectors. Our representation will translate into real, verifiable employment.

16. On our voice and dignity, count on me to stand for Urhobo interests in every setting: on the floor, in the lobby, and in committees. We will not stay quiet when our culture, land, or people are misrepresented. We will speak with facts, law, and the weight of your mandate.

17. I am running on the platform of the APC because I believe in President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda. These reforms are tough but essential. Removing subsidies freed resources for Federal, State, and Local Governments. Ending multiple exchange rates killed corruption, restored transparency, and boosted investor confidence.

18. The Presidential CNG Initiative is cutting transport costs nationwide. The Nigerian Education Loan Fund gives every eligible student access to higher education without financial burden. Wage awards and cash transfers are protecting vulnerable households. The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway and the Renewed Hope Infrastructure Development Fund are driving growth in rail, agriculture, and power. Together, these initiatives are laying the foundation for a brighter future for this and future generations.

19. These reforms directly benefit Delta Central. As an oil and gas hub, Delta State and our LGAs are seeing record derivation and federal allocations for infrastructure and human capital. As a commercial corridor to Warri Port, we gain from the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway and CNG conversion, which lower logistics costs. With a youthful population, we gain from student loans and private investment that needs our workforce.

20. Delta Central will gain more when our party continues to shape and fund national priorities. That is why supporting President Tinubu in 2027 is non-negotiable. Continuity means completing projects, providing stability for investors to create jobs for the Urhobo Nation, and maintaining fiscal discipline so projects are not abandoned.

21. I am committed to a united APC in Delta State — one that honours its leaders, rewards loyalty, and wins through performance. I will run a fair campaign and support all APC candidates after the primaries. We must approach 2027 as one family.

22. To my brothers and sisters, regardless of political differences, this is a contest of ideas and record, not a battle. I invite everyone to join our quest for a better society today and tomorrow.

23. I entered public service for the greater good and your trust. Every road, school, and job we delivered came from your mandate. I am asking for that mandate once more, not for a title, but out of duty. Urhobo must not be sidelined as Nigeria shapes the next 20 years.

24. Today, I declare my candidacy for the Senate to represent Delta Central Senatorial District on the platform of the APC. I do so with humility, experience, and a clear plan to secure our voice and our future.

25. Let us rebuild together. Let us win together. Let us rise together.

 

May God bless the Urhobo Nation.  

May God bless Delta Central.  

May God bless Delta State.  

May God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.  

May God bless the All Progressives Congress.

 

Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, CFR, KSJI

Deputy President of the 9th Senate and the Obarisi of Urhobo Land.

WATCH THE FULL VIDEO...ALL OMIWA ACTIVITIES IN 2025

 

Watch the video below

Incredible number. 4607 patients were seen in 2025. 

In a world where healthcare is often defined by systems, structures, and statistics, the work of the OMIWA Foundation in this video brings us back to the beating heart of medicine—the people.

You see not just patients, but lives—fragile, hopeful, and deeply human. You see faces lined with struggle, yet softened by relief the moment care arrives. For many of them, this is not just a medical outreach; it is a lifeline. It is the difference between silent suffering and being seen, heard, and healed.

From a medical standpoint, what stands out is the immediacy of impact. Conditions that may have lingered untreated—hypertension, infections, undiagnosed chronic illnesses—are being addressed right there, in real time. Preventive care meets curative intervention. Health education meets clinical expertise. It is grassroots medicine at its finest—accessible, responsive, and deeply intentional.

But beyond the prescriptions and procedures, there is something even more profound happening.

There is dignity being restored.

Every consultation in that video is not just a clinical encounter; it is an act of compassion. Every touch, every listening ear, every carefully explained diagnosis carries emotional weight. These are people who may have been forgotten by the system, now being reminded that their lives matter.

And for the healthcare professionals involved, this is more than duty—it is sacrifice. It is choosing to serve beyond comfort zones, to give time, energy, and expertise where it is needed most. In a country where doctors themselves often face overwhelming challenges, low resources, and emotional burnout, this kind of outreach reflects a rare and admirable commitment to purpose.

You can feel it in the atmosphere of the video—hope.

Hope in the eyes of a mother who can finally access care for her child.
Hope in the elderly who receive attention they may not have had in years.
Hope in communities that, even if for a moment, experience what equitable healthcare should look like.

This is what global health equity should embody—reaching the underserved, bridging gaps, and reminding us that healthcare is not a privilege, but a right.

The OMIWA Foundation, through this outreach, is not just treating diseases—they are touching lives, strengthening communities, and quietly rewriting stories that could have ended in despair.

And perhaps the most powerful message of all is this:

When compassion meets competence, medicine becomes more than a profession—it becomes a force for transformation.

WAHALA ...THIS COMMISSIONER IS TRENDING COS HE IS SLEEPING WITH SOMEONE'S WIFE

 

A Commissioner sleeping with someone's wife still looking for him to arrest because the young man said he would post their chats if he doesn't leave his wife alone. 

Anyways, the Commisioner knows himself. The wife and the said Commisioner has conspired looking for this young man to arrest to a point that he has to run out of his house this morning when police came looking for him. I will come back you guys let me address the police.

B Division and Area Command, Warri, you guys should thread with care, including the Delta State Command. If you indiscriminately arrest the young man with an order from a politician Commisioner, we may all need to dance naked. One thing is certain, the so called Commisioner would regret his action as na Delta State money you wan take dey knack people wife still press their neck join. I will be the one to post the chats and your picture on this space let me see what you can do. I want to test your influence as you have said you are ready to kpai Naboth and take over his vineyard (rotten-yard).

And to you, Mr. Patrick, after going through those videos, chats, voicenotes and pictures, you should be aware by now, sorry to say that you married a harlot. Your wife is a woman with easy virtue. I can't understand, like a married woman? 

You think everything is all about having big yanch, good shape and fine face? Someone you should never put at home in the first place. Some of these beautiful girls can never live with one preeq. Get this into your head Mr. Patrick. Their beauty must attract men and especially those who have lived lavishly with their body and their capital, they can never change. Knack them and pass... simple.

Someone openly telling you that she is knacking him and even brought your neighbour whom she knacks into your house, you say na there you wan kpai put. You didn't even care to ask the reason her first husband divorced her as beautiful as she is, you carry go put for inside house. She told you she would relocate from Asaba to Warri after the marriage and almost a year she still tells you she can not leave her work in Asaba, knacking everybody knacable.

You don't have sense Mr. man and it is cowardly to run out of your house because your wife chose to keep her boyfriends and told them to arrest you. Go back home let them try it. Defend yourself if they come for you violently and we will take it up from there. What a nonsense? Since they want to go viral, we will help them trend including the police who would arrest you, the Commisioner who maybe doesn't know himself and your divorced prostitute wife who thinks she could misbehave since you can't give her the life she wants.

A man has sparked massive reactions online after narrating how a herbalist in his neighborhood allegedly promised to credit him ₦500,000 if he provided his urine.

NEWS IN NIGERIA FOR TODAY 21ST APRIL 2026

 

Below is a comprehensive explanation of each of the major headlines  for 21 April 2026, showing the political, economic, security, social and sporting implications of every development in Nigeria and beyond.

---

1. APC imposes two-week deadline for presidential, governorship and NASS forms

The ruling All Progressives Congress has reportedly released its timetable for the 2027 elections and given aspirants a very short two-week window to obtain and submit nomination forms.

The significance is enormous because:

• It signals that the ruling party has officially entered early campaign mode

• It may reduce the number of serious contenders

• It favors politicians who already have:

  • money

  • structure

  • party support

  • elite backing

Reports indicate the APC fixed very high fees for forms, including about ₦100 million for presidential forms, reinforcing concerns that Nigerian politics remains expensive and inaccessible to younger reform-minded candidates. (Punch Newspapers)

This move may intensify internal competition within the ruling party.

---

2. Obi and Kwankwaso launch joint movement before ADC primaries

Peter Obi and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso are said to be aligning politically ahead of the African Democratic Congress primaries.

Why it matters:

• Both men command strong youth support

• Obi has urban and southern appeal

• Kwankwaso has northern grassroots influence

• Their alliance could challenge APC’s dominance in 2027

This suggests opposition figures may finally be learning that:
division helped APC in previous elections.

If the coalition survives, it could reshape Nigeria’s next presidential race.

---

3. ₦6 billion ransom demand for Borno and Kaduna victims

Armed kidnappers reportedly demanded ₦6 billion ransom for victims abducted in northern Nigeria.

This raises serious concerns because:

• insecurity is worsening

• criminal gangs are becoming bolder

• kidnappers now operate like organized businesses

• fear is spreading among citizens

The implication is that:
terror and kidnapping are becoming a parallel economy.

States like:

• Borno State

• Kaduna State

remain among the most vulnerable.

---

4. Freight forwarders seek urgent tariff review

Freight and shipping operators are asking the government to review port tariffs.

Their concerns include:

• rising import costs

• excessive port charges

• exchange rate instability

• inflationary pressure

If tariffs remain high:

• food prices may rise

• medicine costs may increase

• small businesses may suffer

This reflects wider pressure on Nigeria’s fragile economy.

---

5. AFC secures $100 million loan for African projects

The Africa Finance Corporation has secured a $100 million facility for development projects.

This could support:

• roads

• energy

• healthcare infrastructure

• transportation

For Africa, this is positive because many countries need funding outside traditional Western lenders.

---

6. Police arrest 60-year-old suspected gunrunner in Cross River

Police arrested an elderly man in Cross River State over alleged illegal arms trafficking.

The case highlights:

• proliferation of small arms

• regional insecurity

• criminal weapon supply networks

It also shows:
criminal activity is no longer limited by age.

---

7. Armed gang invades Lagos community

A criminal gang reportedly attacked residents in a Lagos State community.

Residents and passersby were robbed.

This is alarming because Lagos is Nigeria’s commercial capital, and such incidents can:

• reduce investor confidence

• deepen public fear

• challenge urban policing

---

8. Ekiti varsity mourns after stampede kills three

A tragic stampede after convocation in Ekiti State reportedly killed three people.

---

10. Calls for Ihedioha, Amadi, Anyanwu to contest Senate

Political stakeholders are urging:

• Emeka Ihedioha

• other regional leaders

to seek Senate seats.

This reflects:

• repositioning for 2027

• internal party calculations

• regional power negotiations

---

11. ADC says coalition remains intact

ADC spokesman reportedly insisted the opposition coalition remains united.

This means:

• talks are ongoing

• no collapse yet

• opposition still seeks a single front

This may become one of Nigeria’s most important political developments.

---

12–14. PDP internal crisis deepens

Three separate stories show continuing crisis in Peoples Democratic Party:

Key issues:

• southwest faction disputes

• leadership legitimacy

• control of party secretariat

Nyesom Wike says reclaiming the secretariat confirms authentic leadership.

The larger meaning:
PDP still struggles with internal unity before 2027.

---

15. INEC clears Amupitan after forensic probe

Independent National Electoral Commission says a forensic review cleared an official accused of partisan social media activity.

This matters because electoral credibility depends heavily on neutrality.
