Nigerian singer David Adeleke, aka Davido, has expressed joy over the conferment of a national honour on him by the Federal Government.

It was reported that Davido was among the 339 prominent Nigerians listed as recipients of the 2023 national honours by the Ministry of Special Duties and Intergovernmental Affairs on Sunday.

Reacting to the development via his Twitter handle on Wednesday (today), the singer said he was grateful for the recognition.

He wrote: “Honored to hear the news that I have been conferred with an OON (Officer of the Order of Nigeria) by the Federal Government of Nigeria.

“I am grateful for this recognition and honour. It has always been my mission to use my platform to showcase our country—the passion, the resilience, the joy, the culture and of course the struggles of our people. I do not take any of this for granted. We have one Nigeria and we will continue to do whatever we must to make it better!”

Shaffy Bello Gives Reason For Leaving Her 25 Years Marriage

She said she walked out of her marriage because it was a long-distance union as her estranged husband, Mr Akinrimisi, was based in the United States.

The thespian disclosed this in a chat with popular media personality Chude Jideonwo.

She said the long distance didn’t help her marriage, so she settled for divorce.

The mother of two said: “He [my ex-husband] was a good father to his children. But I got to a place where I wanted more. And I would always travel back and forth. But I knew at a point that if I really want this, it came with a sacrifice.

“It wasn’t a sacrifice of marriage, but then he being there [USA] and the distance didn’t help.”

She said it was difficult for her to cope with the situation, so she chose divorce.

NLC Fumed Over The Adjustment Of Fuel Price

 Written by Ignatius Igwe

Since the presidential pronouncement, fuel queues have resurfaced across the country as Nigerians forage for the premium product which was rose from around N185  per litre to between N400 and N600 per litre.

The Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) on Wednesday fumed over the adjustment of pump prices by the Nigerian National Petrol Company Limited.

Barely 48 hours after President Bola Tinubu announced an end to the subsidy era during his inaugural speech at Eagle Square, Abuja on Monday, the NNPCL confirmed the hike in the pump price of Premium Motor Spirit also known as petrol.

Since the presidential pronouncement, fuel queues have resurfaced across the country as Nigerians forage for the premium product which was rose from around N185  per litre to between N400 and N600 per litre.

Worried by the situation, the NLC President, Joe Ajaero, issued a statement expressing worry that the national oil company would announce an increment.

Describing the development as unfortunate, Ajaero said the NNPCL’s action was coming on the heels of an ongoing meeting with stakeholders in the oil and gas sector to manage the unilateral but unfortunate announcement by the President.

“It is therefore unacceptable and we seriously condemn it. Good faith negotiation is key to reaching agreement. What the government has done is like holding a gun to the head of Nigerian people and bringing undue pressure on the leaders thus undermine the dialogue,” the NLC President said.

“We call on the federal government to immediately instruct the NNPC to withdraw this vexatious Pricing template to allow free flow of discussions by the parties. Nigerians would not accept any manipulations of any kind from any of the parties especially from the representatives of the Government.

“Our commitment to this process is buoyed on the fact that all the parties would be committed to ensuring that it is carried out within the ambits of liberty without undue pressure. The release of that Template may not allow us to continue if nothing is done to withdraw it so that the dialogue can continue unhindered. It is clear that Government is actually trying to scuttle the process.”

Femi Adeshina Got A New Post

 

Former Special Adviser to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina is set to assume the role of Executive Vice Chairman at The Sun Newspapers starting from September 1.

Adesina, who previously held positions as the Managing Editor and Editor-in-Chief of the newspaper, disclosed this during a recent interview with The Crest.

Senator Orji Kalu, the company’s founder, approved the appointment

According to Adesina, when he expressed his intention to leave The Sun newspapers, Kalu advised him not to resign, offering him the opportunity to return if he didn’t enjoy his government role or even after serving for eight years.

“I came from TheSun newspaper. I was the MD/Editor-in-Chief (of the publishing company). And when I wanted to leave, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu said ‘Don’t resign. You may get to the government and you don’t like it. You can always come back. Or, you may get to the government and stay eight years; you can always come back. I’m going to make you the Executive Vice Chairman of the company.’ Not only did he say it, he issued me the letter. Yes, I have the letter,” Adesina said in the interview.

During his eight-year tenure as the ex-President’s spokesperson, he was unable to go on leave.

The report said Adesina intends to retreat to a peaceful location to write his memoirs.

Adesina served as the president of the Nigerian Guild of Editors (NGE) before he was appointed Special Adviser (Media and Publicity) by ex-President Buhari on May 31, 2015.
