Professor Yemi Osinbajo, has said that despite the meagre income from the oil, which is the mainstay of the economy, Buhari’s administration has done more than the previous governments.
The Vice President said this While speaking in a town hall meeting in Bariga/Somolu Local Council Develpment Area of Lagos State on Tuesday, adding that President Muhammadu Buhari’s government has done more in terms of infrastructure development than the previous administration.
According to Vanguard, Osinbajo also said Buhari’s administration would continue to focus on the common man and taking Nigerians out of poverty through its social investment programmes, and called for unity among all Nigerians, as he felicitated with Lagosians on the Eid-el-Kabir celebration.
Addressing a gathering, comprising All Progressives Congress (APC), chieftains in the state, youth groups, state government officials and the LCDA chairmen of Somolu and Bariga, he noted that the administration’s National Social Investment Programmes, N-SIP, was geared towards improving the welfare of ordinary Nigerians.
He said: “The President’s focus has always been on the common man. So, when we came, we decided on a few things to tackle youth unemployment. First, the N-Power programme to engage as many young people who are graduates as possible.
“We started with 200,000, and just this month, we have employed another 300,000. So, in our N-Power programme, we have 500,000 young graduates who are employed in the programme. Now every local government in Nigeria has N-Power graduates.”
He said: “In the past four years of the previous administration, over US$393 billion was earned in oil proceeds alone. In the past three years, we have earned US$94 billion, look at the difference. And the reasons are very straightforward.
“The price of oil was about half of what it used to be. But with the same $94 billion, we have been able to do far more.”

‘‘We are always encouraged when all our constituents are happy with the work we are doing and our genuine efforts to make sure that what we campaigned for in 2015 is still very much in our minds and we have not lost focus. In terms of security, economy and the fight against corruption we have maintained focus. Even the opposition with all their resources cannot fault our identification of Nigeria’s priorities and the efforts being made to better them. We will continue to do what we ought to do in the leadership position God has placed us and we thank the constituents for the support,’’ he said.
On the defections within the major political parties, the President reiterated his earlier message to them: ‘‘for those who have decided to change camp for whatever reason, we wish them good luck.’’

But then, some fans are not happy with the look.. See some comments below:
One of Nigeria’s Leading musical band, D_Originators is here again with another cover of several afro-pop songs by top Nigerian musicians.
This Afro-Pop mashup which features songs by Simi, Reekado Banks, Wizkid and Davido, showcases a taste of melodious sound which is soothing to the ears.
Just like Wizkid, Tiwa Savage has announced the opening of her Pop-up store in London few days before her Savage Tour.
She took to social media on Monday to announce her Pop-Up store in London, which she revealed will be launching and officially open for business today, a day before her Savage Tour in O2 Arena.
This store will consist of pieces like sweatshirt, tees, classic hoodies, phone cases and everything savage with an inscription of the Tiwa Savage’s name on it.
This same action was taken by Wizkid during his Afrorepublik show at the O2 Arena on May 26th where the Afrobeat singer unveiled his Pop-up store in London on the 25th. This move repeated by Tiwa Savage is a strategic one as it helps the artiste sell out their fashionable stocks to fans who want to have a piece of their favourite artistes with them while they listen to them perform Live. This way these artiste are using one show to generate more revenue.
So for people talking about the relationship between the artistes, you can now see the benefits, from O2 to Pop-Up stores. We await 23rd and 24th of August to tick another box for the history makers in the African music industry.
The mother of one shared photos from the launch today. SHaring the pictures, she wrote;
Line building already
WE LIVE ????

A young man from Borno State who allegedly trekked for the APC prior to the 2015 election has commenced another trekking from Lagos to Abuja today, ahead of the 2019 Election.
According to reports, Mukaila, said he embarked on another trekking this time to Abuja is to record his disappointment that the major promise of the APC to create jobs had not been fulfilled.
The former APC supporter who commenced the trek from the Alausa area of Ikeja, and walked through the Otedola Bridge lining the Lagos-Ibadan expressway, said his action was not political as it could be termed in some quarters, adding that he was not sponsored to embark on the trek.
He also said he had not make up his mind on which party to pitch tents with ahead of 2019.
“Actually, I want to show my disappointment for this APC. As you can see, the youths of this country are very angry.
“APC promised us heaven on earth, they promised us three million jobs in a year, but now, we don’t even have 500,000 jobs in four year.”
He lamented that the price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), also called petrol, has remained at N145 per litre while the dollar to naira rate has continued to affect businesses.
“I trekked during the victory in 2015, we all trekked to celebrate the victory, because there was a change in the government and we thought we got change,” he said adding that the trek would be used to appreciate some of the leaders who are concerned with the youths of the country.
“Nobody motivated me. I have my money and I use my money to do what I want to do. I am just representing the youths of this country,” he said adding that the trek will take him between 18 and 20 days.
He also disclaimed reports and speculations indicating that he got sick after earlier trekking in 2015.
“As you can see, I am starting another trek. I wanted the youths to be employed. I am not for any party. I am only for anyone who has the youths at heart,” he said.
He had earlier announced that he will be surprising a number of fans online.
This move is aimed at promoting his new song, AZA which features Duncan Mighty and Peruzzi.
The fan who has been identified as @Claudiuusss took to his Twitter page to thank both Davido and Chioma for changing his life with the money.
“this is unbelievable bro,I was half asleep when the alert beep came in,It was expected but still felt unreal,big ups to @iam_Davido More blessings in your name,more big tunes in your name bro @thechefchii,Thankyou so much , I’m grateful,God bless you #DMW”
