In his interview with Seun Okinbaloye (@seunokin) , @OfficialAPCNg Presidential Campaign Spokesperson, Mallam Alwan Hassan (@yesmylo), highlighted the @officialABAT administration’s commitment to improving education through targeted investments and needs-based interventions. He disclosed that 79 tertiary institutions have benefited from needs assessments aimed at identifying and addressing critical infrastructure challenges. He also highlighted UBEC’s renovation of over 4,000 classrooms in Kano, equipped with facilities such as clean water, solar power, security infrastructure and ICT tools, giving children from less privileged backgrounds better access to quality education. Furthermore, he noted that UBEC has made counterpart funding available to states, with Kano, Jigawa, Taraba, Nasarawa and Enugu among those already accessing the funds. These interventions demonstrate that the Renewed Hope Agenda is focused not just on expanding access to education but also on improving its quality and learning environment.

“I was with His Excellency, the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, last night, and he gave me two messages for this rally. Two messages. And he said, as usual, he himself will be watching this rally, and these two messages must be delivered along with the other messages that will be delivered by the DG of the campaign and the other people who will address us. The number one message from Mr. President is that I should remind all of you that this election is about him. It is his own election.
The election we are holding in Ondo State in January is not a governorship election. We were all here for the governorship election. This is a presidential election and National Assembly election on the 16th of January. And to this extent, he has said and requested that all of you must please ensure to work together. When we were holding the governorship election, there were times reconciliation needed to be done, and I am glad we all succeeded. But this time around, all our leaders are on the same page. The appeal of Mr. President is that all our leaders should recognize that there is only one state coordinator for this campaign. The state coordinator for this campaign is the governor of the state, and everybody must work with him. The president, the president also asked me to emphasize to the state coordinator, Governor Aiyedatiwa, that he also must open his doors to all the leaders of the party to work with him. It is not by chance that today we have all the leaders together.
So, from the south, Kekemeke, Olushola, we want to see them playing a very active role in this campaign. From the center, we want to see all our leaders there, Wale Akinterinwa, and all the other people playing a very central role in this campaign. And from the north, we want to see all our leaders being given a chance. The president did so much working with the governor. We brought in Olushola Oke. We want to feel his impact. He must be given a chance to work With all the other people that we brought. We brought Dr. Mimiko back to the progressive family. Dr. Mimiko must be seen playing a central role in this campaign.
All of our leaders must be given a chance to play a role. The governor has told the president and told all of us that, Ondo will give us a minimum of one million votes. One million votes is not a joke. Yes, one million votes, it is possible. The President has also more for with, three ministers from Ogun, and of course two ambassadors from amongst you. One of you is the permanent representative of Nigeria to the United Nations, and this must count in your votes. One of you is Nigerian ambassador to Russia. This must count in your votes, and we look forward to all of you working together.” - Senator Michael Opeyemi Bamidele, Senate Majority Leader.
"We want to let you know, Mr. President, that those dividends has trickled down to the grassroots here in Ondo State. For us, we have been able to also embark on projects. We have recruited over 6,000 workers in every sector here in Ondo State. We are building infrastructure, with roads and bridges.
Our health institutions are being rehabilitated. Our young entrepreneurs are being supported. Mr. President, we are saying thank you for all that you have done. And with this rally today, we are saying it to the whole world that Ondo State is for Tinubu 2027. We will return, Mr. President, with minimum of one million votes. The people here will go back to their various local governments, to their various wards and units, to tell... We will all go to the mountains, to the hills, and everywhere to tell the people about your re-election. Mr. President, we want to thank you, and we promise that we will return, and we pray that God will keep you for us.
Thank you, Mr. President, and I thank every one of you that has come to join us in this rally today. God bless you all. - Ondo State Governor, H.E Lucky Aiyedatiwa At #RenewedHopeInOndo

We wanted a President with political will and strategy to make tough decisions and see everything through....
President Tinubu has demonstrated that right from May29 2023...
Everyone was surprised how he was able to tame oil marketers after he removed fuel subsidy...
Everyone was surprised how he pulled through the NASS for tax reform that some were vehemently against....
Everyone was surprised on how he approached the Supreme Court on the LGA autonomy..
Everyone was surprised about how he was able to pull through and collaborate with the USA to combat insecurity....
He will be reelected by January 16, 2027....

KTIRS Chairman Bags 2026 Ebony Herald Hall of Fame and Dignity Award
-- Dedicates Honour to Gov. Radda, Credits His Support for Revenue Reforms
The Executive Chairman of the Katsina State Internal Revenue Service (KTIRS), Alhaji Muhammad Isyaku, has received the 2026 Ebony Herald Hall of Fame and Dignity Award in recognition of his leadership, professional excellence and contributions to public service.
The award was presented at the National Merit Award Secretariat (Merit House), Maitama, Abuja, where the Governor of Katsina State, Malam Dikko Umaru Radda, was represented by his Chief of Staff, Hon. Abdulkadir Mamman Nasir.
Speaking after receiving the award, Isyaku dedicated the honour to Governor Radda, acknowledging his leadership, policy direction and sustained support for institutional reforms and improved revenue administration in the state.
He particularly commended the Governor for prioritising the repositioning of KTIRS, noting that his administration's support had strengthened the agency's operational capacity, staff development and adoption of modern revenue administration practices.
"The Governor's commitment to strengthening KTIRS reflects his broader vision of building a sustainable revenue system capable of supporting government programmes, reducing dependence on external resources and improving service delivery," he said.
Isyaku explained that the agency's transformation agenda focuses on strengthening transparency, blocking revenue leakages, expanding the tax base and deploying technology-driven systems to improve revenue collection and accountability.
"Our objective is not merely to increase revenue, but to establish a fair, transparent and accountable system that encourages voluntary compliance and makes it easier for taxpayers to fulfil their obligations," he added.
The KTIRS Chairman also dedicated the recognition to the people of Katsina State, particularly taxpayers, whose contributions he described as essential to revenue growth and sustainable development.
He called on individuals, businesses and corporate organisations to embrace voluntary tax compliance, stressing that effective persuasion and public sensitisation were essential to achieving the objective.
"Persuasion and sensitisation are very important in tax administration. If you do not persuade people, they may not pay; and if you do not sensitise them, they may remain unaware of their tax responsibilities. People need to understand why they should pay taxes and how their contributions benefit society," he explained.
He further noted that taxes remain critical to financing infrastructure, improving healthcare, strengthening education, enhancing security and delivering essential public services.
Isyaku urged residents and businesses to pay their taxes promptly, emphasising that every legitimate contribution supports government development programmes and the building of a better Katsina State.
The Chairman also acknowledged the contributions of KTIRS management and staff, describing the award as recognition of their collective professionalism, dedication and commitment to improving revenue generation and service delivery.

PRESS RELEASE
PRESIDENT TINUBU REWARDS FLAMINGOS WITH ₦100 MILLION EACH IN FIVE-YEAR SAVINGS BONDS FOR WORLD CUP TRIUMPH
First Lady urges champions to remain humble, disciplined and focused
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has rewarded each member of Nigeria’s victorious Under-17 women’s football team, the Flamingos, with a ₦100 million Federal Government Savings Bond in recognition of their historic triumph at the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in Morocco.
The reward was announced by the First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, who represented the President at a presidential reception in honour of the team at the State House, Abuja, on Wednesday, November 11, 2026.
The First Lady described the achievement of the triumphant Flamingos as a remarkable moment in the history of Nigerian and African sports, noting that the team had made the country proud by becoming the first African nation to win the prestigious title.
“I thank the parents, guardians, and fans whose support has nurtured these young champions, who stand as a shining testament to our belief that our youth are our greatest asset and a source of national pride.
“On behalf of Mr President and the good people of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, I congratulate you once again. You have made our nation proud, and we celebrate every one of you.”
She said the team’s victory had elevated Nigerian football, inspired millions of young girls and opened a new chapter for women’s football in Africa.
“Through perseverance, strong determination and teamwork, you won six consecutive matches and ultimately made history as world champions.”
The President, through the First Lady, also specially celebrated Awawu Bashiru and Oluebube Umejiaku, whose decisive goals secured Nigeria’s victory in the final. Umejiaku also emerged as the tournament’s Most Valuable Player, winning the Golden Ball award.
He urged the players not to allow the celebrations surrounding their historic achievement to distract them from their football careers.
The ₦100 million reward for each player will be invested in Federal Government Savings Bonds, a measure designed to secure their financial future and ensure that the young footballers, who are still minors, are not overwhelmed by immediate access to large sums of money.
“I commend your humility even after this historic victory. It speaks volumes about your character. I urge you to remain humble, disciplined and focused, and always remember that Nigeria believes in you.
“You have elevated Nigerian football, inspired millions of young girls and opened a new chapter for women’s football in Africa, showing every Nigerian child that their dreams are valid and achievable even on the biggest stages in the world.”
The President also commended the head coach, Akeem Busari, his technical crew, medical personnel, administrators and other officials for their dedication and sacrifices.

“So anyone whose main business is importation cannot lecture us about job creation, because he doesn't mean it. And when you see the desperation, he will say he will do four years. So it's a man who just woke, let him be said that once upon a time there was a Peter in the villa. Nigeria needs statesmen, not petty traders in politics.”
