Magashi said this on Wednesday, February 17 while speaking with newsmen after the screening of the service chiefs by members of the House of Representatives.
Reacting to the abduction of 27 students of the Government Science College, Kagara in Niger state, Magashi said;
”Is it (security issue) the responsibility of the military alone? We shouldn’t be cowards. It is the responsibility of everybody to be alert and ensure safety when necessary. We shouldn’t be cowards. Sometimes bandits come with about three rounds of ammunition and when they fire shots everybody will run. In our younger days, we stand to fight any form of aggression.
Why should people run away from minor, minor aggressions?
We should stand and face them. If these people know that the people have the competence and capability to defend themselves, they will run away”
According to reports, the student who was asked by her teacher to cut her coloured hair was angered by this and the only way to express her anger was to show up at school with a locally manufactured gun.
A Twitter user, @ValiantNig took to the micro-blogging platform and wrote “A student of Gov’t Secondary School, Ikot Ewa, Cross Rivers State went to school with a gun to shoot her teacher who asked her to cut her coloured hair”.
However, as at the time of filing this report, it has not been ascertained how she got the locally manufactured gun.
Operators revealed that the bulk of the power loss in Texas came from natural gas suppliers as pipelines froze, making it difficult for plants to get the fuel they needed.
Electricity is normally used to pump water into the homes of residents but since the outage, many have resorted to seeking alternative ways of accessing their daily needs.
In a video shared on Twitter by abc reporter, Erica Simon, citizens could be seen in a queue holding buckets and dispenser containers as they fetched water from a borehole tap.
Sharing the video, Erica wrote;
“This is not a third world country. This is Houston, Texas. I spotted a line of people filing up buckets of water from a spicket at Haden Park. Why? Millions either have no water or are under a Boil Water Advisory.”
“Yes everyone, I’m now aware that it’s spelled spigot. Smiling face with smiling eyes”
According to her, legendary Pete Eneh (now late), and Chika Okpala alias Chief Zebrudaya introduced her into Nollywood.
Writing in an Instagram post, she said the above-named were her course mates at ESUT Mature Program, Enugu, and they insisted she must join Nollywood because of the way she made them laugh in class.
Her words; “Early years in Nollywood, Eyes firmly on the goal. Fun fact: I was introduced to Nollywood by chief Zebrudaya (Chika Okpala) and Pete Eneh (may God continue to rest his soul).
“They were my class mates in Esute mature university program. They couldn’t believe how much I made them laugh everyday in class
“They practically dragged me into Nollywood (story for another day). Before then I was doing radio drama and stage play. #TBT #belikengozichallenge #NOI #MamaGLovers #PatienceOzokwo”
It’s no longer news that the relationship between the two mega music superstars have hit the rocks as they were known to be ‘besties’ at one point in their career. Recall the duo even snubbed each other’s birthday, and this says a lot.
At some point, it was rumoured that Tiwa Savage stopped being friends or ended her alleged ‘romantic relationship’ with Wizkid after he ‘allegedly’ refused having her on his ‘Made In Lagos’ album.
Well, the latest from the FC camp is after they brought out an old tweet of Tiwa wishing Wizkid could take her on a date, which happened as far back as 2011.
In the tweet, Wizkid initially posted;
“Happy birthday to my fav female vocalist out of naija..@TiwaSavage..enjoy ur day mami..wizzy ♥’s u..bless!”
Tiwa Savage then replied;
“@wizkidayo my baby. Thank u sooo much. I wish I was a few years younger today so u can take me on a date lol. Love u hun”
Popular Nigerian comedian, Mama Tobi, known for his popular skits on social media has taken to his page on Instagram to give fans an update about his professional career.
The much-loved comedian disclosed that he has been honourably discharged from the US Armed Forces after serving diligently.
In a letter that accompanied his discharge certificate, the comedian was praised for his honourable service.
The letter read in part:
“It signifies that you have served in a proficient and industrious manner in the defense of your country. No greater honour accrues to any citizen.”
Also sharing the news on his page, the comedian disclosed that serving in the US Armed Forces was a privilege.
In his words:
“It has been a privilege of my life to have served in a proficient and industrious manner.”Mama Tobi’s post was also accompanied with photos of himself while he was still active in service.
See his post and photos below:
Two of the electricity distribution companies in the country, Ikeja Electric Plc and Eko Electricity Distribution Company Plc, disclosed this in messages to their customers through their Twitter handles on Wednesday.
It said, “This is to inform you that we experienced a system collapse at 13:58hrs today and this affected all customers on the IE network. However, we are pleased to confirm that supply has been restored to Alimosho, Ogba, and Alausa transmission stations at 14:47hrs.
“Please note that gradual restoration to other areas is currently ongoing. Thank you for your understanding.”
EKEDC said, “There has been a partial system collapse on the national grid interrupting supply to most areas within our network. We are gathering updates on the situation and will provide them as available.
“For now, please be assured that all stakeholders are working hard to make sure this is resolved. We apologise for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.”
The grid, which is being managed by government-owned Transmission Company of Nigeria, has continued to suffer system collapse over the years amid a lack of spinning reserve that is meant to forestall such occurrences.
Spinning reserve is the generation capacity that is online but unloaded and that can respond within 10 minutes to compensate for generation or transmission outages.
Although five power stations are meant to provide spinning reserves, none of them currently have actual reserve.
The power stations are Egbin, Delta, Olorunsogo NIPP, Geregu NIPP and Omotosho NIPP.
Total power generation in the country stood at 4,499.90 megawatts as of 6 am on Wednesday, according to the Nigerian Electricity System Operator.
The system operator put the nation’s installed generation capacity at
12,954.40MW; available capacity at 7,652.60MW; transmission wheeling
capacity at 7,300MW; and the peak generation ever attained at 5520.4MW.
She is closing this drama with this last post she says….
”This is the first day of Lent a time for spiritual healing and cleansing. This will be my last word on this matter.
It was never my wish to talk about the passing of my late husband Dr Tosin Ajayi on social media, despite the fact that during this 10 month period, from his death on April 26th 2020, I was accused of murdering him by his adult children and their mother after spending 42 days in St Nicholas Hospital by his bedside and dragged to Panti police station, then to coroners court and then to High court.
I am thankful that God delivered me from all these false accusations
and gave me victory to bury my late husband in the manner he deserved.
I want to express my gratitude to those men and women of God praying
with me during these trying moments. I am also grateful for the
unflinching support of my family and friends all over the world, who
stood by me, even the “Aprokos” propagating me to stardom.
Throughout this 10 month period my sole focus and objective was to
ensure that I gave my late husband a befitting burial in accordance with
his status as an Icon in the healthcare field in Nigeria, which I am
happy I achieved in his honour. Love is at the heart of everything in
life. For God is love and Love is God”.
Mrs Osinbajo, in a post on Instagram on Wednesday, said a prayer for the wife of the President, wishing her a long life and good health.
“Happy 50th birthday HE aishambuhari. I wish you many happy returns of today, peace, joy, long life and good health. May all your prayers be heard and answered. May the desires of your heart be granted. God bless you today and always.” she wrote.
She captioned the photo;
“3 GENERATION. It’s the 3rd Slide for me”.

According to Gates who has become more vocal since the pandemic started, achieving net zero would be ‘humanity’s greatest ever achievement’
Solving climate change would be “the most amazing thing humanity has ever done”, the billionaire founder of Microsoft said to BBC.
‘Ending the pandemic is very, very easy”, he claims.
“We’ve never made a transition like we’re talking about doing in the next 30 years. There is no precedent for this.”
“Fifty-one billion is how many tonnes of greenhouse gases the world typically adds to the atmosphere each year.”
“Net zero is where we need to get to.This means cutting emissions to a level where any remaining greenhouse gas releases are balanced out by absorbing an equivalent amount from the atmosphere. One way to do this is by planting trees, which soak up CO2 through their leaves.”
Gates says his focus is on how technology can help make climate change easily handled.
“Renewable sources like wind and solar can help us decarbonise electricity but that’s less than 30% of total emissions.”
“We are also going to have to decarbonise the other 70% of the world economy – steel, cement, transport systems, fertiliser production and much, much more.
“We simply don’t have ways of doing that at the moment for many of these sectors.
Gates says for climate change to be tackled there must be an innovation effort on a scale the world has never seen before.
‘At the moment, the economic system doesn’t price in the real cost of using fossil fuels.
Most users don’t pay anything for the damage to the environment done by
pollution from the petrol in their car or the coal or gas that created
the electricity in their home.”
“Right now, you don’t see the pain you’re causing as you emit carbon dioxide,”
“We need to have price signals to tell the private sector that we want green products,” he says.
That is going to require a huge investment by governments in research and development, Gates argued.
Gate maintains it will be impossible to avoid a disaster, particularly for those who live near the equator, without governments around the world getting behind the effort.
He says the US Republican Party needs to recognise the importance of tackling climate change.
This needs to be a “constant 30-year push”, he maintains. “Business just can’t change all that physical infrastructure unless the market signals are constant and very clear.”
Bill Gates Co-founded Microsoft in 1975 and is the World’s fourth richest person with a net worth of $124bn, according to Forbes
“India is going to build housing for their people, provide lighting at night, air conditioning to make conditions liveable,”
“If you buy an electric car, a hamburger made of a meat substitute, an electric heat pump for your home you are helping increase the production of these products and therefore helping drive prices down.”
Gates stated his private jets are powered by biofuels – aviation fuels made from plant products.
“I pay three times as much now for my aviation fuel, you know, over $7m [£5m] a year in all my offset spending.”
“I don’t think getting rid of flying would make sense,” he replies. “That type of brute force technique won’t get us there.”
He says the answer has to be “a type of aviation fuel that doesn’t cost much extra and is zero emission and that’s got to be biofuels or electric fuels or perhaps using green hydrogen to power the plane”.
On Monday morning, Gates wrote on Twitter;
“To avoid a climate disaster, we need to eliminate emissions from the ways we create electricity, grow food, make things, move around, and heat and cool our buildings. It won’t be easy, but I believe we can do it. This book is about what it will take.”
