Tinubu has turned Nigeria into civilian dictatorship – Dele Momodu
Media mogul Dele Momodu has claimed that President Bola Tinubu has placed Nigeria under “a civilian dictatorship.”
Momodu stated this in a post on X on Wednesday evening.
According to him, both political opponents and leaders must embrace constructive criticism.
He wrote: “I stand gidigba by my opinion that what we have now is civilian dictatorship.
“Constructive criticism is not meant only for political opponents but for all leaders.
“I’m decent and civil enough to avoid the use of the type of uncouth and blistering words and public theatricals some born-again supporters of Tinubu used against him.
“I still shudder at the sheer depravity of how some people can switch overnight and think Tinubu has forgotten the level they descended, or that we all suffer from collective amnesia.
“I place Nigeria above other considerations.”

North not shortchanged in presidential rotation – Rep Abdulmumin Jibrin
A chieftain of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, Hon. Abdulmumin Jibrin, has said he feels terribly embarrassed when knowledgeable northerners claim the North is shortchanged in the rotation of the presidency.
Jibrin stated this on Wednesday while responding to questions in an interview on Politics Today, a programme on Channels Television.
The Kano House of Representatives member also lamented that the northern part of Nigeria has always united against itself politically.
“I feel terribly embarrassed when I see knowledgeable northerners say the north is shortchanged in the rotation of the presidency.
“The north has always united against itself and it is time for us to tell ourselves the truth.
“It’s an insult to former heads of state from the region when a northerner goes on national television to spill such comments,” he said.

Pro-Tinubu’s Protesters Storm NNPCL Headquarters
Pro-Tinubu’s Protesters Storm NNPCL Headquarters
* Seek probe of Ojulari, threaten legal action
Sunday Aborisade in Abuja
Coalitions in support of President Bola Tinubu’s administration’s agenda, comprising Renewed Hope Interest Defenders, Lawyers in Defence of Accountability and CSOs for oil industry reforms, invaded the NNPCL headquarters on Wednesday, demanding the probe of the Group Chief Executive Officer,(GCEO), Bayo Ojulari’s leadership.
They alleged that President Tinubu’s oil industry reform was currently under threat.
The protesters, after a world press conference, marched through the streets of Abuja and ended at the NNPCL headquarters.
The groups, at a live world press conference, unanimously passed a vote of no confidence in Ojulari and demanded the appointment of a GCEO that has the capacity to unite and serve as a stabilization link for the NNPCL.
Speaking at the conference, the groups’ joint leader, Comrade Agu Obed, demanded that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) fast-track the ongoing investigation into the matter.
He alleged that a situation where an appointee of the president is in bed with key opposition leaders under the guise of a business relationship is a deliberate act of sabotage, which must be punished.
The groups praised President Tinubu for his reforms in the oil industry, which have offered hope.
According to the groups, “We question, in the strongest terms, the irrational and suspicious shutdown of our national refineries by Mr. Ojulari, barely 24 hours after he assumed office on May 24th, 2025.
“Let it be on record that millions of taxpayers’ money have been invested in the rehabilitation of the Port Harcourt, Warri and Kaduna refineries, with several reports confirming that some of these refineries had started test-running and were functional.
“Yet, Mr. Ojulari, without recourse to stakeholders, and any official technical audit, allegedly ordered a shutdown of the facilities.
“This action is anti-people, anti-progress and targeted at undermining President Tinubu’s goal of achieving energy self-sufficiency and reducing fuel imports.
“It is now an open secret within the industry that Mr. Ojulari has an agenda to deliberately demarket NNPCL to justify a privatisation process.
“This is a deliberate effort to sabotage the national refining effort and enrich private interests.
“This diversion must be investigated. We therefore call for an independent inspection by a team of credible, external engineers including COREN and refinery experts, to verify the true operational state of the refineries and to determine if there was ever a genuine reason to shut them down.”

The Nigerian Customs Service has announced promotions for sixteen Deputy Comptroller-Generals, Assistant Comptroller-Generals, and 3,312 senior officers.
This was disclosed in a recent statement after the Nigeria Customs Service Board (NCSB) 63rd meeting, chaired by the country’s Minister of Finance, Wale Edun, on Tuesday.
In a similar move, NCS approved the promotion of 202 junior officers.
According to the statement, the appointment comes amid vacancies created by the recent retirement of some management members and merit-based career progression and recognition of outstanding performance in NCS.
The NCS statement showed that the elevated DCGs are AB Mohammed (North-West), GO Omale (North-Central), OC Orbih (South-South), and D Nnadi (South-East).
On the other hand, ACGs include MP Binga (North-East), CA Awo (South-East), AB Shuaibu (North-Central), AT Abe (North-West), K Mohammed (North-West), B Mohammed (North-West), TM Daniyan (North-Central), B Oramalugo (South-East), OP Olaniyan (South-West), B Olomu (South-West), IK Oladeji (South-West), and CC Dim (South-East).
In a related development, Edun said the National Single Window project implementation will significantly transform trade facilitation in Nigeria and reinforce the stabilisation of the economy.
“The revenue being generated feeds directly into the Federation Account and supports the budget of all tiers of government. With the Single Window initiative fully operational, we expect even greater efficiency and higher returns.”
DAILY POST reports that the Nigeria Customs Service collected N3.68 trillion in revenue in the first six months of 2025, surpassing projections by 11.85 per cent and reflecting a 25 per cent rise compared to the same period in 2024.
