Low turnout has marred the state House of Assembly polls as most people stayed away from polling centres. It was a total departure from the large turnout that was witnessed during the presidential and national assembly polls on February 25. In most of the polling centres visited in Onitsha, few voters were seen waiting patiently for the arrival of electoral materials and officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission. In Awka, the state capital, it was near empty polling units as staff of the INEC, who were on the ground, sat idly. At Aroma junction 1, Polling Unit 008, Awka South Local Government Area, at 11:20 am, only six persons have been able to vote, despite the commencement of voting at 8:30 am and the swiftness of the BVAS machines.

Bola Tinubu, the president-elect has been slammed by the Labour Party Presidential Campaign Council (LP PCC) for refusing to condemn a threat issued by MC Oluomo against Igbos living in Lagos.

Abiodun, an All Progressives Congress, APC member, is one of the 11 governors seeking reelection on Saturday. Okupe was seen disembarking from a jet with Abiodun in a video circulating on social media. The video sent waves of shock on social media as some supporters of Obi alleged that Okupe worked for Asiwaju Bola Tinubu of the APC in the election. Others claimed he abandoned Obi after the election. In December last year, A Federal High Court in Abuja jailed Okupe for two years with an option of fine. However, Okupe, on his official Twitter handle, explained that political opponents are not enemies but just competitors in the landscape. “I don’t play politics of enmity based on political differences.

The incomng government has been urged to raise the Value Added Tax, VAT from 7.7% to 10%. According to the Minister of Finance, Mrs. Zainab Ahmed, increasing VAT from the current 7.5 % to 10 %, would stimulate the country’s economic growth. Zainab Ahmed made the call during a courtesy visit to the headquarters of VON in Abuja. Ahmed said: “VAT was one of the ways to increase revenue and we still have to increase VAT because at 7.5 per cent, Nigeria has the lowest VAT rate in the world, not in Africa, in the world. In Sub-Saharan Africa, the Africa average is 18 per cent, when you increase your VAT, your Gross Domestic Product (GDP) will grow.” She noted that the government had used the finance bills to block leakages, and strengthen the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) and the Nigeria Customs Service adding that the government has also done automation of the two institutions through the process.

An Ondo State Magistrate Court has remanded a 46-year-old man, Ebenezer Adefehinti, for defrauding three people under the pretence of securing jobs for their children. The defendant was said to have been defrauding the victims claiming to be an official of the Department of State Security. He was arrested by the men of the state police command in June 2022 at Ayegun Oka Akoko in Akoko South-West Local Government area of the state and was charged to court. He was arraigned before the court on a five-count charge. The prosecutor, Inspector Augustine Omhenemhen, told the court that Adefehinti with intent to defraud members of the public, falsely represented himself to be an official of the DSS.

Portugal will face Liechtenstein on March 23 in Lisbon before travelling to Luxembourg on March 26. Martinez said his first squad “is important because it is the starting point” for Euro 2024. Ronaldo, whose international career began in August 2003 in a friendly against Kazakhstan, holds the world record for men’s international goals with 118.

INEC Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee, Festus Okoye, while speaking on Arise TV on Friday, said the commission had learnt valuable lessons from the February 25 presidential and National Assembly elections. The PUNCH reports that controversy trailed the failure of INEC to upload results as early as possible during the presidential election, with major opposition parties such as the Peoples Democratic Party and the Labour party holding on to this as one of the bases for rejecting the presidential poll result where Asiwaju Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress was declared winner by the commission. “The law as of today prescribes a dual mode of either transmission of results or transfer of results,” Okoye said. He said when polls closed at the level of the various un...

A Nigerian Twitter user has asked MC Oluomo to worry more about Omo Ales in Lagos instead of Igbos. This comes after Oluomo threatened Igbos in Lagos not to come out to vote if they are not going to vote for the All Progressives Congress. @kuppylee said there are many Yorubas that will not be voting for APC in Lagos state.

A perusal through the comment section of the tweet shows reactions of people of the Yoruba ethnic group agreeing with his position and declaring their intention to vote against APC as they did during the presidential election. @kuppylee wrote: “Igbos are not the ones he should be worried about, he should be worried about we Omo Ale Yorubas and we are plenty.”
