šŸ“° The Serious Side

šŸž U.S. Drops $32.5M for Hunger Relief

At least somebody dey reason us. The U.S. just approved $32.5 million to fight hunger in Nigeria’s crisis-hit zones. Over 764,000 displaced people will benefit—pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and children top the list. But truth be told: until Nigeria fixes governance and security, foreign aid will always be a band-aid on a deep wound.

🚤 31 Lives Lost in Niger Boat Tragedy

Another boat accident, another round of condolences. This time in Borgu, Niger State, where an overloaded vessel carrying 90 people capsized after hitting a submerged tree. 31 confirmed dead, 50 rescued, the rest missing. No life jackets, poor safety, same old story. When will leaders stop acting like Nigerian lives are disposable?

šŸ›¢ļø Oil Deal Signed with TotalEnergies

While ordinary Nigerians battle hunger, government dey sign big oil deals. Nigeria inked a production-sharing contract with TotalEnergies (80%) and Sapetro (20%) to explore offshore blocks in the Niger Delta. Good news? Maybe. But we’ve seen enough oil ā€œgood newsā€ turn into bad governance before. The people are watching.

šŸ… Nigeria Bids for 2030 Commonwealth Games

Nigeria wants to host the 100th Commonwealth Games in 2030. Ambition dey, no doubt. But question remains: can we really handle it? Power, infrastructure, transparency—those three alone go test us.
