Governor Amuneke is trending because Super Falcons captain, Rasheedat Ajibade has seen the edit. As she revealed, FG is yet to give them the $100k promise, the houses, and even pay their earned bonuses. So, Nigerians are saying, the government did a real life Amuneke skit with the Super Falcons. In one of his skits, he promised his people heaven and earth, and fled. Asked them to meet his PA. Somehow, some patriotic Nigerians argued that Ajibade is lying. While others believe they’d still get paid, perhaps around the 2027 elections. Follow Trending Explained for daily explanations!

Q: In a Symfoni interview a year ago, you said Wike is intoxicated by the money he stole from Rivers State. Can you show us the money he stole? Mr. Ewor: Perception is different from reality. What I knew then and what I know now are two different things. Then, the perception was that Wike didn’t allow Governor (Fubara) to function. Today, we have come to realize that the problem of the state wasn’t Wike, it was the inability of Sim, the Governor himself, to be open to the people of Rivers.

“Governor Francis Nwifuru of Ebonyi State has continued to face criticism from some residents and political observers over his performance since taking office. Critics claim that since being sworn in as governor, they are yet to see what they describe as a major project commissioned under his administration. Many Ebonyi voices making comparisons point to former governor turned minister, Engr. David Umahi, whom they credit with massive infrastructure development, road projects and visible transformation across the state during his tenure. According to these critics, the state handed over by Umahi was on a strong development path, but they believe Governor Nwifuru has struggled to sustain that pace. Some dissatisfied citizens have even tagged him the “worst governor,” questioning his handling of the state and expressing disappointment over the direction of governance. Interestingly, amid the criticisms and growing debates around his administration, Governor Francis Nwifuru has now emerged as the consensus candidate for re-election, a development that has generated fresh reactions and conversations across Ebonyi State.”

"The people I pity this morning are all those elders in Rivers State who thought they were doing the right thing by standing up to Governor Sim Fubara." "The people I sympathize with are those young men of Rivers State, the youths in particular, who came out boldly and said they did not want one individual known as Minister Wike, former governor, to be running their state from Abuja." "The people I pity are the women of Rivers State, some of whom went onto the streets bare-chested, who were saying that the right thing must be done and that if a man has been made governor of his state, he should be allowed to exercise authority. Now, where have they been left?" "Fubara has humiliated them. He has disgraced them." ~Dr Reuben Abati of Arise Tv

Illinois taxpayers are being FORCED to fund college tuition for illegal immigrants while Governor Pritzker is facing deficits and ignoring the needs of citizens which of course prioritizes open borders over the safety of American families! Karoline Leavitt: "The President certainly thinks that Governor Pritzker is not doing a very good job of managing his state, as evidenced by not only the waste, fraud, and abuse, but also the crime in the city of Chicago that Governor Pritzker has REFUSED to pick up the phone and call the White House and ask for help on, which is something his residents want him to do, but he refuses to do for political reasons!"

Governor Amuneke is trending because the viral parody politician is celebrating his birthday today, drawing warm wishes from Nigerians. Amuneke was asked three things he’d do if he were a real life Governor. He said, firstly he’s not partisan or an activist. Although his content offends some political groups who are always sending threats with anonymous accounts. His only aim is to expose and educated the masses through his messages. And anyone who feels he’s against them is experiencing what comes with truth. Because he intends to impact Africa with his message, not just Nigeria. If he were to campaign in real life, his promises would be; 1. Transparency and, 2. Accountability. Contractors must deliver projects and he’d build a system where the law works the same for everyone regardless of party affiliation. Because once laws are enforced without bias, corruption will reduce, and everyone will sit up Although he started skits in 2020, tried different characters, until Governor Amuneke worked out, following the reverse skits “let’s see the edit.” According to him, APC offered him a youth leadership role in exchange for an end to his content, he rejected it. Recently, he was also offered an ambassadorial role with INEC, on premise he’d stop criticizing the government. He rejected it. Follow Trending Explained for daily explainations!

People ask me all the time, “Can a Democrat win in Oklahoma?” The answer is YES. Because Oklahoma is not a red state, it’s a gerrymandered state. Just two governors ago, we had a Democratic governor and a more balanced legislature. Today, Oklahoma is ranked 50th in quality of public education and 49th in access to affordable health care. After nearly two decades of one-party control, we are at the bottom of the lists that matter most to working families. It’s not because Oklahomans don’t care, it’s because the maps protect politicians instead of representing the people. Oklahomans want a governor focused on what actually affects their lives: strong public schools, affordable and accessible health care, and an economy that works for everyday families. Those are not partisan issues. They are Oklahoma priorities. As Governor, I will fight for real, sustainable investment in our public schools, including meaningful pay raises for teachers and support staff. I will work to strengthen and expand access to affordable and accessible health care, especially in rural Oklahoma. And I will focus on lowering costs and building an economy that works for everyday families. Thank you to Governor Andy Beshear for having me on the podcast and helping elevate these issues. Oklahoma deserves better, and I trust the people of this state to help us move forward.

On May 3rd, 2024, Rt. Hon. Ben Kalu visited Governor Alex Otti, OFR, to commend him for his outstanding performance and for restoring the dignity of Abia State. According to him, he had come to “tell the world that Governor Alex Otti is doing well,” emphasizing that his commendation had nothing to do with political party affiliations. He said he believed the Governor was genuinely passionate about making Abia proud again. At that time, Ben Kalu did not realize, or perhaps did not care, that it was the President providing the federal funds for the projects. He didn’t rush to divert the credit to the President, neither did he remember that he was the opposition leader in the state. In fact, he openly admitted that the works of Governor Otti were so many and so visible that Abians could once again feel proud of their state. He further affirmed that the Governor’s bold steps in governance would surely lead Abia to the promised land. Interestingly, that was a period when Ben Kalu still had a human face. Back then, power had not yet intoxicated him. His arrogance had not yet taken full form. Fast forward to October 5th, 2025, watch the video and judge for yourself. It’s the same Ben Kalu, but a different location and a different date. He has now remembered that he is the opposition leader. He now claims that credit should not go to the Governor, and suddenly, the President must be acknowledged. People like Ben Kalu should be approached with caution. These are the kind of leaders who claim to be guiding you toward a destination but will abandon you midway. This is a wake up call to everyone Ben has managed to hoodwink into believing they are on some political mission or battle. First of all, Governor Alex Otti has no battle ahead. There is no war to fight. The battle Ben is drawing exists only between him and Abians. To Ben’s followers, have you now seen that your principal, the man you so highly adore is inconsistent? Be careful not to make enemies for yourself and your generation in the name of defending a man who cannot stand by his own words. Any man who does not stay true to his words does not deserve to be trusted. Ben Kalu is a perfect example. Miracle Chukwunenye October 7, 2025.

Another grave allegation has been leveled against the Honourable Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, by his former aide, Musa Kamarawa. In a second video, Kamarawa alleged that Bello Matawalle has police officers working for him who kill whomever he orders and spare whomever he chooses. Musa Kamarawa, a former aide to Bello Matawalle, swore by the Qur’an that all interactions he had with bandits and terrorists were carried out on Matawalle’s instructions. He challenged the minister, or anyone who believes he is lying, to swear by the Qur’an in the same manner. He further stated that he was granted bail during Bello Matawalle’s tenure as governor, but was later charged to court under Governor Dauda Lawal’s administration. According to him, the court eventually discharged him after failing to establish any direct link between him and bandits. Kamarawa also swore by the Qur’an that no politician is sponsoring his whistleblowing. He insisted that he has no ties with any government official and has never visited the Zamfara State Government House since leaving office when Bello Matawalle was governor.

I possess documents, voice recordings, and videos that could reveal the truth about you, says sacked Kano SSG Baffa Bichi to Governor Yusuf and Kwankwaso. The former secretary to the Kano State government, Abdullahi Baffa Bichi, has issued a warning to unveil details about Governor Abba Yusuf and his political mentor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, “when the time is right.” Mr. Bichi addressed the public for the first time since being dismissed from his position, along with five other commissioners, by the governor in December 2024. Speaking to his supporters on Thursday, shortly after his return from Saudi Arabia, the former SSG promised to reveal the actions of his previous political allies, stating that he possesses compromising documents, videos, and audio recordings. He said, “I’m happy that I have finished my tenure in peace. As you know, this is not the best time to talk, but at the appropriate time we will expose them so that people will understand the kind of people they are. “They are not trustworthy people. They’re very deceptive. They don’t know anything except treachery and betrayal. They are not people to be trusted. “We have documented everything from written to audio and video evidence.”

VIDEO: How we used religion to give Tinubu victory – El-Rufai The former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, has said that he and some northern governors used religion as a political tool to give victory to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu in the 2023 presidential election. According to the former governor, the decision to use religion as a political strategy was to help tackle the issue of tribalism and religion in politics in the country. The former governor stated this in a viral video. He was speaking to an audience in the Hausa language in Kaduna at an event before handing over to his successor. He said, “Allah sees our heart, me and Zamfara State Governor, Mutawalle did it because of God and we didn’t do it because of anything. We only do it in order to have solutions to the current religious problem we are having in Nigeria and for us to give South West Muslims a sense of belonging to rule. And it is because of religion that we used that gave Asiwaju victory.” He also noted that the Muslim/Muslim ticket that he used to achieve political success in Kaduna has now been replicated in Nigeria with the emergence of Bola Tinubu as president and Kashim Shetima as vice president. He said, “What we are able to achieve in Kaduna state now has been achieved in Nigeria as a whole. There is no liar that will come and say he will do politics as a Christian and win an election. Even Peter Obi didn’t win.” He stated that he alongside other northern governors successfully pushed for the emergence of a Yoruba Muslim from the South West as president despite opposition from some quarters El Rufai speaking in Hausa said in part, “Concerning the Presidential government, what Professor Akintola said is true. We the Northern governors agreed that the presidential position should go back to the West. It was a verbal promise but a promise whether written or spoken, God knows. “When we saw some people plotting for presidential position to remain in the North, we disagreed, we are not like that. We said we are Muslims and we have our traditions and we cannot go back on our words. That was the first step. The second step is after we all agreed or they realised that they cannot do anything, we will tackle the issue of tribalism and religion in politics in this country. We agreed that we will support BAT. “When we had that agreement I was not on good terms with him, (Tinubu), we were fighting. But Professor Akintola and their leaders came from Lagos and said this is their thought If power is given to the West since we all agreed that it should be given to them the Yoruba people from the South-West have a problem, their Muslims cannot contest, and win an election. A Christian will have to contest and have a Muslim from the North as a vice. They said since from Abiola it had never happened. They said they wanted that and I asked them to bring the person we will support and BAT got the ticket. We knew he will have to take a Muslim as his vice.” He added, “What we are able to achieve in Kaduna state now has been achieved in Nigeria as a whole.

We agreed that we will support BAT. “When we had that agreement I was not on good terms with him, (Tinubu), we were fighting. But Professor Akintola and their leaders came from Lagos and said this is their thought If power is given to the West since we all agreed that it should be given to them the Yoruba people from the South-West have a problem, their Muslims cannot contest, and win an election. A Christian will have to contest and have a Muslim from the North as a vice. They said since from Abiola it had never happened. They said they wanted that and I asked them to bring the person we will support and BAT got the ticket. We knew he will have to take a Muslim as his vice.” He added, “What we are able to achieve in Kaduna state now has been achieved in Nigeria as a whole. There's no liar that will come and say he will do politics as a Christian and win the election. Even Peter Obi didn't win.” Credit: Tafarkin Magabata TV --- Follow us for more breaking news and videos

CNN was just forced to explain on air why Governor Tim Walz dropped out of the Minnesota governor’s race. And their viewers are not going to like what they heard...especially when they admitted: “This comes as pressure has been growing around this widening welfare fraud scandal.” This was the same story they tried to avoid covering at all costs. CNN: “Big breaking political news out of Minnesota.” “Governor Tim Walz, who, of course, was the Democratic nominee for vice president in 2024, has ended his reelection bid for governor.” “He is not going to run for reelection.” “This comes as pressure has been growing around this widening welfare fraud scandal. Now, Walz has not been accused of any wrongdoing, but it has been a growing political headache.” “Over the holidays, it certainly did widen.” “There was a right wing influencer who posted a viral video on social media that quite literally went viral when the vice president of the United States and the FBI director leaned in on this.” “And it shined a spotlight on what had been some deep concerns among Minnesota Democrats, even about the wisdom of Governor Walz seeking a third term.” “They believe that this would hang over the entire reelection effort and perhaps even damage the Democratic Party.”

A Yoruba muslims have strongly condemned Alfa Mufti for his insistence on establishing Sharia law in Oyo State, despite warnings from various Yoruba groups and Governor Seyi Makinde. The Governor has made it clear that he will only uphold the constitution he swore to protect. The controversy surrounding the planned inauguration of a Sharia court in Oyo State has raised a lot of heated debates for the past few weeks. While some argue that Sharia law is a fundamental aspect of Islamic practice, others believe it could disrupt the state's religious harmony. The Supreme Council for Shari’ah in Nigeria (Oyo branch) had announced plans to establish a Sharia court, but the move was met with widespread criticism. In response, the Oyo State Governor stated that he would not permit any structure that does not align with the state's legal system. The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Oyo State has also expressed opposition to the establishment of a Sharia court, describing it as unconstitutional and a threat to the state's secular nature.

#WATCH | Chennai | Congress incharge for Tamil Nadu, Girish Chodankar says, "Due to his RSS background and the pressure from Narendra Modi and Amit Shah, I feel that the Governor is bowing before the BJP rather than before the Constitution and the people of Tamil Nadu. This is not right. The Governor does not have the option to ask them to prove their majority at the Raj Bhavan. The Constitution is very clear. The Governor must respect the mandate given by the people of Tamil Nadu. The floor of the Legislative Assembly is the venue designated by the Constitution for proving a majority. Why should one have to prove a majority before the Governor?Governor has no option then to invite Mr Vijay to swear in as the chief minister and should give him time. BJP should not try to rule Tamil Nadu with one MLA. People of Tamil Nadu will not accept this. There will be a big revolt if Governor try to impose his rule and rule the state through backdoor. We also appeal all the secular parties. Those who believe in secularism, those want to prevent BJP or RSS rule in Tamil Nadu, should come out and support the people's mandate. Public mandate is important."
