NLC Threatens To Embark On Indefinite Strike If Petrol Price Rises Further

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has threatened to embark on another strike if the pump price of petrol increases from the existing N617 naira.

Recall that oil marketers had indicated that the cost of Premium Motor Spirit, popularly called petrol, would rise to between N680/litre and N720/litre in the coming weeks should the dollar continue to trade from N910 to N950 at the parallel market.

The marketers added that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Importers and Exporters’ official window for foreign exchange had remained illiquid and unable to provide the $25m to $30m required for the importation of PMS by dealers.

They also hinted that its members seeking to import petrol were being forced to put the plans on hold due to the scarcity of foreign exchange to import the commodity.

Speaking at the African Trade Union Alliance meeting in Abuja on Monday, the NLC President, Joe Ajaero said the union will proceed on total, comprehensive and indefinite nationwide shutdown of the country.

Ajaero also warned the federal government against undermining the demands of the union and the plan to provide palliatives to Nigerians and workers.

DJ Kaywise’s Lover, Nenny B Cries Out Over Alleged Kidnap And Threat to Life By Her In-Laws

DJ Kaywise’s girlfriend Nenny B has raised alarm.
Kaywise is a popular Nigerian DJ and music executive.
According to Nenny B, her in-laws attempted to kidnap her.
She made the claim on her social media page while sharing a video.
According to Nenny, a vengeful group of employees sacked by Kaywise in 2021, planned to kidnap her at the ending of July but were surprised when Kaywise instead of Benny, arrived at the gate of her house to pick up a delivery intended for her.
She shared a video showing three men, alleged ex-employees of Kaywise who were allegedly waiting for her and were disappointed she didn’t come out of the gate.
She alleged the men who were arrested by the police after giving her a life threatening call in 2021 were set free by the police after she heeded to persuasion by Kaywise’s parents.
She released footage of the three men outside her house saying the public should be aware in case anything happens to her.
In a statement posted on her Instagram page, late Sunday night, August 13, she detailed the genesis of the incident .
It reads;
The saga commenced in 2021, | received a life threatening call from an unfamiliar voice warning,
 
“You will die before this year ends; you cannot escape us.” Alarmed, I reported the incident to the police, leading to the startling discovery that the caller was Shola Olabinta, a former domestic
staff of Kaywise. Shola confessed to being part of a vengeful group seeking retaliation against Kaywise for their dismissals.
 
Upon my request for legal action, Kaywise intervened, revealing that his parents had implored him to persuade me to withdraw the case, given his twin brother’s connection to the retaliation. Following this counsel, | heeded their plea, resulting in Shola Olabintan signing an undertaking.
 
In January 2023, an anonymous blog alleged that Kaywise had SLAPPED his mother and portrayed him as emotionally distressed, even suggesting suicidal thoughts. Curiously, the same article baselessly implicated me in various claims, including the absurd accusation of havingbewitched Kaywise. I was surprised to learn that the twin brother, whom Kaywise had fired in 2021 and had not seen since then till date suddenly appeared in the blog’s story, supposedly working on damage control. The situation struck me as quite amusing.
 
The baseless allegation circulated by the blog incited a wave of public uproar, leading us to choose a wait-and-observe approach to see if the family who kaywise has been nothing but good to and to whom I had been equally supportive would come forward to debunk the false
allegations whether related to marriage or any physical assault.
The situation took a more astonishing turn when we discovered that the entire family stayed quiet and allowed the public to slander our reputation for no reason prompting us to rely on prayers knowing fully well God will
vindicate and expose the truth. In all we moved on with our businesses.
Then, on the 30th of July 2023, a weekend designated for celebrating my dog’s birthday, of which Kaywise was in attendance,  I had ordered dog accessories from an online store based in Egbeda.
Despite the delivery not arriving as expected, the next day, an entirely different person contacted me, informing me of his presence at my gate to deliver the dog accessories. My initial intention was to personally step outside and receive the delivery myself ; however, recognising my
preoccupation, Kaywise generously offered to handle it on my behalf.
Driven by curiosity, i took a peek outside and to my astonishment, | spotted a group of individuals in cars, positioned in a manner suggesting a potential attack. Amongst them were the same
employees Kaywise fired in 2021 which included AB Events (Abraham Losa), ManlikeTrex (Toby
Paul Chukwu ) and his twin brother Shotbythai ( Taiwo Ayorinde ) i screamed and called on kaywise, he told me to stay back and he went to the gate. When they saw him, they were shocked. They did not know that he was there. Some of them placed their hands on their heads in
disbelief and shocked that their plans had failed.
Kaywise swiftly retrieved his phone to start recording, prompting them to hurriedly scramble into their concealed vehicles, reversing in a flurry of panic and swiftly retreating; amid the chaos, Trex (Toby Paul Chukwu)’s voice could be heard shouting F***K Up. Swiftly, we reported the incident to
the Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department in Lagos (FCID), resulting in the
successful apprehension of three suspects. However, several other suspects remain at large. This
press release serves as a precautionary measure to ensure that in the event of any unforeseen
developments, the identities of those responsible for the attack are known.
As an award winning broadcaster and a renowned journalist, I am determined to deploy my skills and resources to ensure that justice is served in this matter. Nenny B

Why I Don’t Believe In Democracy – TG Omori

Nigerian music video director, ThankGod Omori Jesam aka TG Omori, has revealed he doesn’t believe in democracy.
According to him, power mongers often leverage on the poverty in the continent to buy votes.
The 28-year-old said monarchical system of government suits better than democracy.
TG Omori stated this while featuring in the latest episode of the Zero Conditions podcast.
He said, “How do I feel about Nigeria? Nigeria is a jungle. I did not vote. I was in SA [South Africa during the elections]. I intentionally didn’t vote.
 
“I don’t believe in democracy. We were supposed to be led by kings. I feel like democracy is a freaking scam in the sense that superrich people can always buy their way through it. Not around the world but in Africa. As long as hunger is still a tool then democracy will aways have a price.”
The video director said he has witnessed people selling their votes when he was younger.

Anthony Joshua Knocks Out Robert Helenius With Brutal Finish

Anthony Joshua, the world-famous two-time heavyweight champion, on Saturday night, knocked out Dillian Whyte’s late replacement Robert Helenius.

Joshua knocked out Helenius out with a brutal finish at London’s O2 Arena.

Joshua was due to fight British heavyweight rival, Whyte in a long-awaited rematch but ‘The Body Snatcher’ failed a drug test a week before the bout.

However, Finland’s Helenius stepped in at short notice but was no match for Joshua.

Joshua controlled the early rounds without dazzling before stopping his opponent in the seventh with a devastating right-hander to the jaw.

The 33-year-old was stunned by a late replacement in 2019 as Andy Ruiz took advantage of a chance of a lifetime to become world heavyweight champion, but Helenius was unable to produce a similar upset at the O2.

“People need to leave me alone, this is my time in the ring. Let me keep doing what I want to do,”Joshua told DAZN after the bout.

“I don’t want to say too much, but I want to see you [the fans] again two more times this year.”
