*NANS Acknowledges Power Minister’s Efforts, Urges Patience and Support In The Actualization Of The Quest For Efficient & Transformational Power And Related Sector Reformation*
The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) Senate Council, led by Dist. Sen. Ekundina Segun Elvis, the Senate President, issues this press statement to express unwavering support and solidarity with the Honourable Minister of Power and the entire ministry in their commendable efforts to revitalize the power sector. We applaud their dedication in line with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR’s vision for a renewed hope agenda for all Nigerians.
In recent days, we have closely followed the Honourable Minister’s interviews where he eloquently outlined the challenges facing the power sector and the proactive steps being taken to overcome them.
The Honourable Minister has showcased a profound understanding and dedication to enhancing service delivery in Nigeria’s power sector. Despite the sector’s hurdles, his tireless commitment to implementing reforms and driving projects signifies a positive shift towards addressing issues across the entire power value chain, encompassing Generation, Transmission, and Distribution.
From the successful completion of power plant projects to addressing liquidity challenges within the value chain and expanding rural electrification efforts, we are confident that the Honourable Minister’s initiatives will yield tangible improvements and lasting solutions. His strategic approach and unwavering resolve are poised to usher in enhanced power supply nationwide.
We commend the Honourable Minister for his steadfast commitment to providing reliable and affordable electricity to every corner of the nation.
Moreover, we unequivocally express our support for the Honourable Minister amidst the orchestrated attacks and collective opposition against the ministry under his leadership by individuals motivated by self-interest and narrow agendas. It is disheartening to witness certain entities, posing as student leaders, try to undermine the Honourable Minister’s commendable endeavors through unfounded criticisms and unjustified assaults on matters vital for the nation’s future.
We implore the Honourable Minister not to be swayed or distracted by the antics of these self-serving individuals whose legitimacy and motives are questionable. The National Association of Nigerian Students firmly stands by the Honourable Minister and pledges our steadfast backing for his initiatives and noble intentions for the Nigerian populace.
In closing, we applaud the Honourable Minister of Power for his exceptional leadership, innovative initiatives, and contributions to the development of Nigeria’s power sector. We recognize the intricacies of the challenges within the power sector and acknowledge that addressing them demands courage, time, and collaborative efforts from all stakeholders. Therefore, we remain dedicated to working in harmony with the Honourable Minister and other stakeholders to achieve sustainable and dependable electricity supply for all Nigerians.
Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria!
Long live the Ministry of Power!!!
Long live the Honourable Minister of Power!!!
Signed
Dist. Sen. Ekundina Segun Elvis,

The event documented impactful moments with the Gospel and miracles, emphasizing the power of faith and the tangible confirmation of God’s Word through signs and wonders.

At the crusade, which was held at the SKD Sports Stadium in Paynesville City, and themed, “Liberia Outpouring Crusade” witnessed testimonies of impact and miracles with participants experiencing instant healing of various kinds of challenges.
Apostle Suleman’s first port of call was Paynesville, the office of Liberian government’s president, Mr. Joseph Nyuma Boakai, who received him in an audience with his junior ministers. Apostle Suleman, who also met with the vice-president, Mr. Jeremiah Kpan Koung, was welcomed by the Liberian leader’s office as part of the president’s ongoing engagements with religious leaders aimed at fostering spiritual support for national development.

Aside from being prophetic and timely, OFM sources disclosed that the servant of God’s visit underscores the importance of faith-based partnerships in supporting governance and national renewal efforts.

Middle Belt Forum Hails Tinubu’s Jos Visit, Calls for United Civil-Military Effort to Restore Lasting Peace
*Middle Belt Forum Hails Tinubu’s Jos Visit, Calls for United Civil-Military Effort to Restore Lasting Peace
The Middle Belt Peace Forum (MBPF) has commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his profound demonstration of empathy and responsive leadership following his decision to postpone an official engagement in Iperu in order to visit victims of the recent attacks in Jos.
In a statement signed by its National Coordinator, Pastor Bulus Garba, in Jos on Friday, the Forum said the President’s decision to personally identify with grieving communities sends a powerful message of solidarity and reinforces public confidence in the commitment of the Federal Government to the protection of lives and property.
“The Middle Belt Peace Forum warmly commends President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for prioritising compassion over ceremony. At a time of deep sorrow for the people of Plateau State, his decision to visit Jos stands as a mark of true leadership—one that listens, responds, and stands with the people in their moment of pain,” the statement read.
The Forum described the perpetrators of the recent attacks as “cowards who prey on innocent and defenceless citizens,” stressing that such acts of violence are not only inhumane but also a direct assault on the unity and peace of the nation.
“We condemn in the strongest terms the actions of these cowardly attackers whose only aim is to instil fear and destabilise peaceful communities. Their actions must be met with firm and decisive resistance from all arms of the state,” Pastor Garba said.
The MBPF further used the opportunity to salute the courage, gallantry, and sacrifices of the Armed Forces of Nigeria under the leadership of the Chief of Defence Staff, General Olufemi Oluyede, noting that their continued efforts remain central to restoring stability across troubled parts of the country.
According to the Forum, the Armed Forces have demonstrated resilience and professionalism in the face of complex security challenges, often operating under difficult conditions to safeguard communities and defend Nigeria’s territorial integrity.
“We salute the Armed Forces of Nigeria for their unwavering commitment and sacrifices. Their gallantry in confronting criminal elements and reclaiming territories is a testament to their dedication to national service. We recognise that the path to peace is demanding, and we honour those who stand daily in defence of our nation,” the statement added.
The Forum pledged its full support to ongoing military operations and called for strengthened collaboration between security agencies and local communities as a critical factor in achieving lasting peace.
It also urged citizens across the Middle Belt to cooperate with security forces by providing timely information and fostering unity within their communities.
The MBPF, however, expressed concern over the need for greater synergy among security agencies, particularly the role of the Nigeria Police in consolidating gains made by the military.
“We call on the Nigeria Police Force to rise fully to its constitutional responsibility by effectively supporting the Armed Forces in stabilising and securing areas that have been cleared of criminal elements. Holding and policing such territories is essential to preventing a resurgence of violence,” Pastor Garba stated.
The Forum emphasised that sustainable peace requires a coordinated approach in which the military clears and secures areas, while the police maintain law and order to enable displaced communities to return and rebuild their lives.
The MBPF concluded by reiterating its commitment to peacebuilding efforts across the Middle Belt and expressed optimism that with sustained leadership, coordinated security efforts, and active citizen participation, lasting peace can be achieved.
“Together, through unity, vigilance, and collective resolve, we can overcome these challenges and build a safer and more peaceful Middle Belt,” the statement added.

“The 2026 edition coincides with the 10th anniversary of Triangle International Magazine, which has over the years celebrated notable Africans across diverse fields.
“The award recognizes the Zamfara State Government under Governor Lawal’s leadership for achieving remarkable milestones in service delivery since his inauguration on 29 May 2023.
