Aliko Dangote, Nigeria's prominent businessman, argues that corruption is a common issue across many countries. The key difference in Africa is that stolen funds are often sent abroad, out of the continent's financial system.

He points out that countries like Thailand and Malaysia face corruption too. However, their development continues because they reinvest stolen money locally instead of sending it overseas.

Dangote suggests that African officials should learn how to reinvest or 'launder' money within Africa. This could help build a better future for the continent and its children.

Elon Musk continues to wield significant influence in the Nigerian crypto scene. Recently, rumors about him potentially launching a new political party in the U.S. have created a buzz. Interestingly, this has impacted the growth of the $TAP token.

After Elon pinned a tweet related to $TAP on his official X account, the token experienced a massive rally, with some traders seeing gains of up to +1728% on Bitget Onchain. I personally hold a portion of $TAP and have been taking profits as the chart keeps rising.

Recent investigations reveal that Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, allegedly allocated thousands of hectares of land in Abuja to his sons, Jordan and Joaquin Wike.

Former US President Donald Trump has publicly criticized Elon Musk over government subsidies and the electric vehicle (EV) mandate. Trump claims Musk benefits from more subsidies than anyone in history, which he believes could threaten Musk's companies if these subsidies were withdrawn.

Trump argues that the EV mandate is unnecessary and that electric cars should not be forced upon everyone. He suggests that removing subsidies could save the US government a significant amount of money and potentially lead Musk's companies, including Tesla and SpaceX, to shut down.

He also hints at the possibility of exploring alternative cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin as a way to address these issues. Overall, Trump emphasizes the need to reconsider government support for Musk's ventures to save public funds.

The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has announced that starting July 3, 2025, only legally registered civil marriages will be recognized for immigration benefits related to refugees and asylum seekers.

This means that religious, traditional, or customary marriages will no longer qualify unless they are also formally registered under civil law. The change aims to reduce marriage fraud and ensure all marriages used for immigration purposes are legally valid.

Applicants from Nigeria, Uganda, India, Afghanistan, Somalia, and other countries where non-civil marriage practices are common will need to obtain official civil marriage certificates. USCIS recommends submitting government-issued marriage documents along with supporting evidence like proof of cohabitation, joint bank accounts, or shared children.

This policy update affects all pending and future applications and emphasizes the importance of formal civil registration for marriage-based immigration benefits.

Temidayo Akinsuyi highlights the significance of the opposition coalition's adoption of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as their platform to challenge the ruling APC in the 2027 elections.

He emphasizes the importance of a strong opposition for Nigeria’s democracy, recalling the role of the APC from 2013 to 2015 in challenging the PDP. Since then, Nigeria has faced challenges with opposition parties like PDP and Labour Party struggling due to internal crises and infighting.

The coalition’s unity, with notable political heavyweights like Peter Obi, Atiku Abubakar, and others, signals a formidable challenge to President Tinubu’s government. Akinsuyi advocates for a credible electoral process and urges political stakeholders to prioritize national interests over personal ambitions, fostering a healthier democratic environment for Nigeria’s future.
