”Happy 64th Anniversary, Nigeria!

Today, we celebrate more than just a nation; we celebrate the resilient spirit of over 200 million people whose strength, creativity, and hope have continued to define our journey. At 64, we stand as a proud nation, rooted in diversity, with a future that holds the promise of greatness—if we, together, continue to build it.

As we look forward, we do so with **renewed hope**, embracing the vision of a Nigeria that works for all—a nation where every citizen feels seen, heard, and empowered. A future of peace, where the unity that has always been our strength shines brighter than ever, transcending our differences and bridging the gaps that have for too long divided us.

But hope alone is not enough. It is the **joint effort** of every Nigerian—north, south, east, and west—that will make our nation rise to its full potential. From the corridors of power to the streets, farms, and marketplaces, it is our collective determination, hard work, and shared values that will make Nigeria great again. Together, we can rewrite the narrative, elevating our education, healthcare, infrastructure, and governance to world-class standards.

The challenges are many, but they are not insurmountable. With **peace** as our foundation and justice as our guide, we can forge ahead, strengthening our democracy and ensuring that prosperity is not just for a few, but for all. As we celebrate today, let us recommit ourselves to building a Nigeria that future generations will inherit with pride.

Happy Independence Day, Nigeria. The future is bright, and together, we will rise.

HER EXCELLENCY,

AMBASSADOR KING TONTO DIKEH”

US Democracy Over If Trump Loses – Elon Musk

Tech billionaire, Elon Musk has made a claim concerning Donald Trump.
According to him, Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump is the only way to save the United States, US.
Musk said democracy in the US would be “over” if Trump loses the November presidential election.
He explained that if even one in 20 illegals become US citizens yearly, something that the Democrats are expediting as fast as humanly possible, that would be about 2 million new legal voters in four years.
The tech mogul said the voting margin in the swing states is often less than 20,000; hence if the Democrats succeed, there will be no more swing states.
Posting on X, Musk wrote: “Very few Americans realize that, if Trump is NOT elected, this will be the last election. Far from being a threat to democracy, he is the only way to save it!
 
“Let me explain: if even 1 in 20 illegals become citizens per year, something that the Democrats are expediting as fast as humanly possible, that would be about 2 million new legal voters in 4 years.
 
“The voting margin in the swing states is often less than 20 thousand votes. That means if the “Democratic” Party succeeds, there will be no more swing states!!
 
“Moreover, the Biden/Harris administration has been flying “asylum seekers”, who are fast-tracked to citizenship, directly into swing states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin and Arizona. It is a surefire way to win every election.
 
“America then becomes a one-party state and Democracy is over. The only “elections” will be the Democratic Party primaries. This already happened in California many years ago, following the 1986 amnesty.
 
“The only thing holding California back from extreme socialism and suffocating government policies is that people can leave California and still remain in America. Once the whole country is controlled by one party, there will be no escape.
 
“Everywhere in America will be like the nightmare that is downtown San Francisco.”

Nigerian activist, Martins Otse aka Very Dark Man has penned a note to rapper, Folarin Falana aka Falz to join hands with him to fight the corruption in the country.

In a post shared on his Instagram page, VDM said if Falz saw the “nonsense” going on at the House of Representatives investigative panel, he would drop the lawsuit he filed against him for defamation.

Recall that Falz and his father, revered lawyer, Femi Falana threatened to sue VDM for defamation of character after the social critic shared an audio conversation purportedly between bobrisky and another man in which it was alleged that Falana was working on helping Bobrisky secure a presidential pardon and had asked for 10 million Naira to complete the job.

Falz denied knowledge of this and said she only spoke with Bobrisky when the crossdresser called to ask him for money. Bobrisky, on the other hand, has denied that he was the one speaking in the audio recording, claiming that it was generated using AI.
