The rehabilitation of Kafin Chiri Dam in Kano under President @officialABAT Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration promises stronger irrigation, more dry-season farming and better opportunities for year-round food production. Reliable water also supports livestock. With pasture and veterinary services alongside it, we can reduce the need for herders to travel long distances in search of water and grazing.

Bola, on your MANDATE!

APC NATIONAL CHAIRMAN MOURNS VICTIMS OF TRAGIC AIRCRAFT CRASH IN ONDO, CONDOLES FAMILIES AND NIGERIAN AIR FORCE.
I wish to extend my deepest condolences to the families of the passengers and crew members who lost their lives in the tragic aircraft crash in Igbokoda, Ondo State. This is a devastating loss, made even more painful by the confirmation that there were no survivors. At this difficult moment, my thoughts and prayers are with the bereaved families as they confront the unimaginable pain of losing their loved ones.
I also extend my heartfelt condolences to the Nigerian Air Force, the Armed Forces of Nigeria and all those connected to the victims. The loss of our military personnel in such tragic circumstances is a painful blow to the nation, considering the sacrifices they make in the service and defence of our country. May God grant the families the strength and fortitude to bear this irreparable loss and comfort them in their hour of grief.
To all Nigerians, I share in our collective sorrow over this tragic incident. At a time like this, we must stand together in compassion and solidarity, irrespective of political, ethnic or other differences. May God Almighty receive the souls of the departed, grant them eternal rest, and grant Nigeria the strength to heal from this painful tragedy. May such a devastating incident never occur again.
Professor Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda

Throughout this competition, I will support any country playing against South Africa until they are humiliated out of the competition like they are doing fellow blacks in their country.

APC Screening Committee Applauds National Chairman Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, Asks Him to "Take a Bow"
The Aspirants’ Screening Committee for the All Progressives Congress (APC) 2026 National Convention has screened the party’s National Chairman, Professor Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda, and asked him to “take a bow.”
The committee, chaired by Ekiti State Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji, conducted the screening on Tuesday, March 24, 2026, at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel in Abuja, as part of preparations for the party’s upcoming National Convention, with members of the committee hailing Prof. Yilwatda’s “commendable leadership” and seamless stewardship of the APC since his emergence as National Chairman. The “take a bow” gesture is traditionally reserved for high-performing or consensus candidates, signaling that the aspirant has met all requirements with distinction and enjoys overwhelming support.
Governor Oyebanji, who heads the 42-member screening panel, oversaw the exercise alongside other senior party figures. The screening applies to aspirants for various national offices ahead of the convention, but the smooth passage granted to the National Chairman underscores unity and stability within the ruling party’s leadership.
This development comes as the APC intensifies preparations for its 2026 National Convention, where key party positions will be contested and filled. Prof. Yilwatda’s unchallenged and celebrated screening is being widely interpreted as a vote of confidence in his ability to steer the party toward the 2027 general elections.
The party’s official channels and stakeholders have since echoed the positive sentiment, describing the outcome as a well-deserved recognition of the chairman’s efforts in strengthening the APC’s structures and maintaining internal cohesion.

Earlier today, I delivered the 6th, 7th and 8th Combined Convocation Lecture of Akwa Ibom State University, where I challenged Nigerian youths graduating from our universities to reposition themselves for the global job market, stressing that opportunities beyond Nigeria’s borders are more abundant and increasingly accessible than the limited local options we often compete for.
Speaking at the convocation ceremony with the theme “Leveraging Emerging Technology to Enhance University Education and National Development,” I emphasised that, by long-standing design and structure, many of our universities have operated within local frameworks—producing graduates who compete mainly within domestic job markets. In a rapidly globalising and digital world, this approach must change.
The world has become a single, borderless labour market. Today, global jobs are more available than local jobs, especially for young people equipped with the right digital skills. Nigerian youths must therefore think globally, compete globally, and work globally.
I explained that the Fourth Industrial Revolution, driven by artificial intelligence, data analytics, robotics, biotechnology, and digital platforms, has fundamentally altered how work is defined and where it is done. In this new era, physical location matters far less than competence, creativity, and digital literacy. Our graduates must see themselves not as job seekers confined by geography, but as global talents capable of solving problems for organisations and communities anywhere in the world.
I also stressed that universities must deliberately align their curricula, research priorities, and teaching methods with global realities. A modern, world-class university rests on four critical pillars: graduate employability, impactful research, international outlook, and quality teaching and learning. Technology is no longer an optional add-on; it is a powerful multiplier that strengthens each of these pillars.
While Nigeria is richly endowed with natural resources, oil, gas, and maritime assets, particularly here in Akwa Ibom, our long-term prosperity will depend far more on human capital than hydrocarbons. In the 21st century, oil will matter less than algorithms, and land less than innovation. The true wealth of nations lies in the quality of their people.
In line with this conviction, I announced a personal donation of ₦100 million to support cutting-edge research at Akwa Ibom State University, focused on delivering direct societal and economic impact.
I also pledged to increase the grant if the initial fund is transparently and effectively utilised, and to personally supervise the projects to ensure accountability, excellence, and measurable outcomes.

Kogi Youths Donate ₦100 Million for President Tinubu’s APC Nomination Form
Youths from Kogi State have donated the sum of ₦100 million in support of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as a show of confidence in his leadership and in anticipation of the 2027 general elections.
The donation was formally presented during a visit to the National Headquarters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja, with the delegation led by the Governor of Kogi State, Ahmed Usman Ododo.
The delegation was received by the National Chairman of the APC, Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda, at a brief but symbolic ceremony at the party’s secretariat.
Speaking at the event, Governor Ododo described the donation as a powerful expression of grassroots support for President Tinubu, particularly among young Nigerians.
He noted that the gesture reflects the confidence of Kogi youths in the President’s vision and reform agenda.
“This contribution by our youths clearly demonstrates their belief in President Tinubu’s leadership and their readiness to support him for another term,” Governor Ododo said. “It sends a strong message that the people of Kogi State stand firmly with him.”
In his remarks, the APC National Chairman commended the youths for what he described as a patriotic and voluntary act. He said the donation underscores the growing political consciousness and engagement of young Nigerians, adding that such support is reassuring for the party’s future.
He further remarked that, with this gesture, there would be no need for further donations toward the President’s nomination form.
The ₦100 million donation is earmarked specifically for the purchase of the APC presidential nomination form ahead of the 2027 elections.
Representatives of the Kogi youths explained that the funds were mobilised through community-based contributions and fundraising efforts, driven by widespread enthusiasm for the President’s reforms in infrastructure development, security, and economic growth.
The APC leadership expressed appreciation for the gesture and reaffirmed the party’s commitment to inclusive governance and youth participation in national development.
During the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar won Kaduna State, and to be more specific, he won 14 Local Governments of Kaduna State.
Peter Obi won 7 Local Governments.
The Tinubu El-Rufai is bragging about making him President won ONLY 2 or 23 Local Governments of Kaduna State.
