- The minister of finance and coordinating minister of the economy, Wale Edun had responded to criticism over the federal government’s plan, to deploy N20trn of pension funds for infrastructure development in Nigeria.
Edun stated in the video message, uploaded by the ministry on X, that the federal government has no intention to “illegally” access the fund.
The defense headquarters on Thursday, declared an indigene of the republic of Niger, Halilu Buzu, wanted for terrorist activities, illegal arms supplies, illegal mining, and cattle rustling.
According to the defense headquarters, Bazu resides in a forest in Zamfara State and often escapes to Niger after his criminal activities in Nigeria.
The director of Army Media Operations, Major General Edward Buba, said the military is working with its counterparts from Niger to ensure the arrest of the terrorist.
This is coming as a member representing Zurmi federal constituency Bello Hassan Shinkafi, raised the alarm that over 500 residents have been kidnapped by terrorist in Zamfara state.
The defense headquarters released a video on Thursday showing troops of the Nigerian army in high spirits and ready to defend Nigeria.
In Yobe state, the government has launched a spiritual warfare against insurgents who destroy electricity towers connecting the state and Borno to the national grid.
According to the Yola Electricity Distribution Company, the insurgents had been attacking electricity installations and plunging the state into darknes.
On Wednesday, the Governor of the state, Mai Mala Buni, led a team of Muslim clerics to the site of the towers, where they recited the Quran and asked God to punish the vandals should they approach the towers ever again. Cows were also sacrificed for Allah to expose the insurgents attacking the towers and their sponsors.
In the United Kingdom, a retired 74-year-old Ghanaian man, Nelson Shardey, who has lived in the country for 42 years, has been told that he is not a British citizen, and must live in the country for another decade, before he could be granted permanent residency by the Home Office.
Shardey, had for many years assumed that he was officially seen as British, until his mother’s death in 2019 when he had to apply for a passport to attend her funeral in Ghana and the Home Office told him that he had no right to be in the country.
Shardey first arrived the United Kingdom in 1977, to study accountancy, on a student visa that also allowed him to work.
He is now a retired newsagent and had paid taxes all his adult life, he also bought a house and has a mortgage, and was never questioned about his citizenship status.
Shardey had also performed jury service, and in 2007 was given a police award for bravery after tackling a robber who was attacking a delivery man with a baseball bat.
Shardey is now taking the Home Office to court, his lawyer claims that the Home Office should have treated him as an exception because of the length of time he has been in the UK, and because of his bravery award and service to the community.

Arise Tv is like a tutorial class. Intellectually engaging and reinforcing. Sound minds and characters moderating. Most of the guests are informed and updated. Am addicted to the morning show ❤
All those who say the head of this govt did wonders while he was governor of Lagos. Oya see how many wonders he is doing now. Mad people everywhere
Ahmed Tinubu did nothing in Lagos other than cash handouts, land handouts, looting, appointments hand outs, extortions, bribes, corruption, etc etc
You can see it in Federal Government activities now. !
Don't touch the funds at all whether legally or illegally. You people can't be straightforward.
I retired as a level 16 officer. My pension every month is 58 thousand naira. What will it do for me.? What a country!!
How much did you contribute? When you were advised to additional voluntary contributions. What was your response?
You guys are second to none. ❤
The country that has no money to supply electricity for his people, oil with no single refinery, brilliant people with no students loan, able body men and women with no jobs ……. Spending money like residents of Yaba left. Good for nothing politicians begging God to secure electricity at this age.
Believe these clueless gang at your own peril. Did Nigerians not rise up to condemn the Lagos Calabar coastal highway?. Did APC not dive into the coast even without evidence of preliminary legally and structurally requisite feasibility/ scoping of the area! God forbid 😮😮😮
Yes, pls don't touch my money.
Hmmmn! FG should leave our pensions alone o! I have always been afraid of that fund. Their eye don dey enter there.
May God bless the Nigerian army always. I personally appreciate your great sacrifices to keep the country safe. May God keep you safe and bless everything about you
Thank you Dr. Abati, was waiting for your take, on this issue since yesterday.
This pilgrimage subsidy!Nigeria is the only country in the world that does this. This doesn’t make sense. Where is the organized civil society ?
Stop misleading the public. Many countries do the same thing. Do your research b4 misleading people.
90 billon naira for set of people to for Haji and you come deep your hand pension fund , what a shame to a country
The hajj fund is a political decision, just like the Muslim Muslim ticket
Kudos to the arise morning show crew.
Your analysis is like a tutorial
Mr. Edun, there is no LAW in Nigeria, so don't gaslight us with the word "illegal" or "legal".
Telling me about regulations- balderdash. Anyone who believes the courts does that at his/her own peril. This is not to say they are all corrupt but they will need like 5 years of constant fair JUDGEMENTS to change MY mind.

Well done crew
"illegal" or "legally" please dont touch people's pension to send people for hajj or pilgrimage or buy yourselves suvs or build a needless coastal road when existing ones have not been maintained. Cut the jumbo pay for all politicians and uses those for infrastructure development.
Provide 20 million houses? Ok oh. Remind me again who is the head of the Housing Agency? 🤔
Housing Building contracts is an avenue for looting, fraud and mismanagement by these political criminals in power and government in Nigeria ! So sad .
Hmmm, that is making sense right ✅️
@@user-vd7kt2gt1v , Head of Federal Housing Authority is the Son-in-law of the president.
And president son is on the Board of the Contractor Company, that was allotted the multi trillion Naira, bloated/inflated Lagos- Calabar Coastal Highway ?
What a lack of integrity, transparency, morality and corruption !
2m or 2om houses? Hahahahhahh Nigeria my country
@@HpMshelia😂😂🤣you never chee chomtin...finally a chimpanzee will make away with the whole money or the money will be swallowed by a python🤷case closed, every party goes away smiling.
The gvt of this country should fear God. I am a retired person, i retiered fr New Nigeria Newspaper,my pension is anging under FG not paid since manyers ago.
90 billion to be spent on pilgrimage? This is why IPOB refer to Nigeria as a zoo. This is unbelievable. Tufiakwa
Great one, Arise crew.
I love you all for your undiluted analysis.
That yobe state governor's brain 🧠 needs to be examined 😮😮😮
😅😅😅 it’s wild af
I imagine if the tinubu was even patriotic to his tribe, and had packed his cabinet full with competent Yoruba people alone, the country wouldn't be suffering today, because Yorubas have very capable hands who can run Nigeria to prosperity. However, both Edun and Cardoso are con men - tinubu's boys who don't have the best interest of Nigerians at heart. They will continue to wreck havoc in Nigeria until the day APC is kicked out of power.
"The state should not have any business with religion" well said Dr. Abati
Do you say that when the government was giving palliatives during Christmas?
When did govt give Christians palliative during Christmas and how much was the cost of the palliative?.
Is like is in ur imagination or in your dream that you saw govt give Christians palliative during Christmas.
@@user-hj9qj4td7q U are definitely sick.. it's appalling.
I remember Gani Fahwemi, he could have sued this imposter, called ThiefTinubu for dragging the state to religion. Where are our activist lawyers?
That was when you could get justice in Nigeria court.
This man practically said nothing.They are looking for a way to syphon the money into their bank accounts.
Dr Abati....we miss u
Legally or illegally, please don't touch pension money. Pay pension areas owned many pensioners. No grammar oooo please.
Mr Ruben Abati thanks for calling a spade a spade...
Your suprised this time
Proud of our gallant soldiers. May God guide and protect our soldiers across Nigeria.

This should be resisted whether legal or not. They're not judiciously using what they have financing hajj, building Court of Appeal buying cars for Cutoms. No way. We no go gree.
Section 10 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
The Government of the Federation or of a State shall not adopt any religion as State Religion.
Well said Dr Abati
May the lord continue to guide our troops.
Nigerians with prayers, a responsibility of government is very funny..Nigerians will live what man can do to God .
We Want Our Constitution Amended soo State Governors can control State, LGA & Community Police , soo that Nigerians 🇳🇬 Lives & Properties can be secured.
The public trust is low
This government doesn't have any borrowed money to steal. Now thiefnubu wants to start stealing poor people's money. Oloriburuku Ole.
If the government of Mr Tinubu finds it very convenient to waste 90 billion Naira on personal matters like religious pilgrimage to Mecca knowing that the constitution clearly says Nigeria is a circular state without equally doing same for other religious body will surely spell doom for the country.
I don't know why you people still believe that anything Good will come out of apc government they drive joy see masses suffering
Ask the governor the cost of the 2 cows. I hope they won't say they slaughtered 200 cows in different locations in the state. "Spiritual madness in high places".
God have mercy on Nigeria.
Where is your president?!!!!!
It is in one breath hilarious and in another worrisome that a governor chooses to pray instead of using the security apparatus at his disposal to safeguard assets in his state. How do we get to elect these kind of people in Nigeria?
Well analised by Dr. Abati
Somebody should tell Edun and his colleagues to look for their loan elsewhere. They must not touch people's pensions unless they are looking for more trouble for their unborn generations.
My country is a joke
We're is country Nigeria located😂😂😂😂😂
This amount to Saudi Arabia and same people will come to face hardship and poverty.
Nigeria is a cause to humanity
God might even be angry with us becos we seems not to have brain at all. I keep asking,how much does it cost to fix our industries from refineries to other industries? So Dangote is richer than Nigeria? I so much hate those still supporting this government that seems to have no clue on fixing the economy. What a wasteful leaders and brainless supporters
That Islamic cleric is "working" for a free ticket and board to Hajj.
The whole of Nigeria feels like Nollywood 😂. Its all just a joke
Christian that vote for Muslim Muslim tickets.
Una well-done ooo.
Very soon they will pursue una commot for this country.
Na even second tenure una go see peppep,they are just pampering you people this tenure.You people are in primary stage.
Nigeria is a special joke mallam praying over electricity
Why pension fund for God's sake
Far north are such a wonderful people🤣🤣You brought some men with box and cow to come and pray over the vandals😅
If no funds for infrastructure, so don't touch the pension funds be it legal or illegal. Nigeria leaders are not trust worthy when it comes to money.
If there's no naturalization process followed ,the length of time you have stayed doesn't mean Citizenship.,
These soldiers does not look like Nigeria army😤😤😤🙀
With all due respect it is obvious that they're confused on what to do at the moment.
Great team! Thanks guys
#We say no to 90Billion on pilgrimage#.
# We say no to Calabar-Lagos new road, fix existing roads first#
My people let us launch hashtags against exploitations from this government.
Kudos team Arise "what's trending". You guys rock
I never heard anything about illegality what people said was that the thought in the first place was inappropriate and shoukd be stopped immediately.
This administration is loosing it, they lack the know how and bend on mismanagement in the name of sourcing for funds. Imagine, leaving revenue to dip hand into workers contribution.
We didn't miss abatti at all
Those people praying for the electricity towers,are they catching cruise or what
Great guys : with great ideas I love you guys. Keep on with the good job . The Lord will protect you all. I love this team.
God bless the Nigerian armed forces, the best military in Africa..
Thank you guys and have a great weekend.🙏🙏🙏🙏
I can't trust Our Government
Arise is really holding this govt to account,keeping them on their toes and even helping them to proffer solutions in areas they are going wrong,Arise have become a brand that even govt officials listen to learn going forward,kudos to Arise tv.👍
He supposed to follow the process of getting documents. No one can come to your house and give you passport.
Nobody should touch my pension ooooh
Kudos Arise Tv❤❤❤❤
A governor praying for the security of electricity facilities in 2024... nawaoooohhh!!! We truly elect people into political offices in this country.
I hate the fact that these people think good governance is all about big grammar. Edun needs to keep quiet. Nigerians are educated, well exposed, and intelligent. Thus, knows better. So, he should stop with the lies already. Truth is, this administration is completely clueless. No plans at all.
We are in trouble.
So those funds are available and you don't pay pensioners
How on earth do you use pension funds to pay pensioners?
So it's fr what? @@chikezieanozie6645
Pension funds are monies saved by pensioners through pension houses. They are not government funds.
Waoh! Ojyyy wore two (2) colours today
Thank yuo all
Same shall they have different interpretations during elections 🤣🤣Nigeria
90 Billion, what a waste at this time in country. This guy's are callous and insensitive to Nigerians facing hardship.
In one week? They don't show these corpses or rescued people... but when insurgents kill we see the mass burial why ?
WHERE IS TINUBU???
Hajji sponsorship is very important. Age long people this practice of sponsoring pilgrims has been going on. Why the reaction against pilgrim sponsorship. No one sponsors vacation trips in where in the world, it's only in Nigeria that government sponsor vacation to religious headquarters.
Despite the 2004 Pension Reform Act, do Nigeria workers contribute towards their pensions?
None Contributory Pension 😛😜🤣
They do through monthly deduction.
What Bulaba and his cohorts can't do doesn't exist...they've used the money 💰 already
What's trending great show journalist always looking stunning thanks
Ojy,u are welcome
Even if it is de truth would u tell us de truth
Other peoples sweat!!!
Clueless government
Arise, how are the so called Naija troops speaking/singing in French?
This government would always want to say something to know about people's reaction
Our military should've learned their lessons by now whenever the show off like this those terrorists will want to prove a point, i pray God help us
This man Edun is sick
Nigerians really know how to tag along empty voices hein 😅
Dr Abati honestly is the one coordinating this programme, weldon sir for you wealth of experience.
Okkkk!
A lot of people don’t understand basic economy and pension funds. This is how pension funds are spent, you need to invest and make them grow so it would appreciate and be available when it’s time to collect.
Good morning great team of Arise news pls can you represent the Nation by appearing in our attires on Friday ❤❤
Dear Nigerians, God gave us brains so we can give Him rest. This over dependency on religion to solve our problems is unbecoming.
Nobody is talking abt a governor with spiritual warfare
The money for this malady, killing cows for vandalism is scandalous, that 'll consumed all the security vote for that state and cows 'll be donated for Kilisi😂😂😂😂
