The Federal Government has filed a 13-count charge before a Federal High Court in Abuja against individuals accused of plotting to overthrow President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Those named in the charge include a retired major general, a retired naval captain, a serving police inspector, and three other suspects. The defendants are alleged to have engaged in acts of treason, terrorism, and attempts to wage war against the Nigerian state.

Although speculation initially linked the move to security concerns over a possible coup attempt, the Defence Headquarters (DHQ) dismissed the claims, insisting the cancellation was unrelated.

  The Founder and General Overseer of Salvation Ministries, Pastor David Ibiyeomie, has sparked an online conversation after revealing the large sums he gives as church offerings. During a recent sermon, the clergyman shared that he personally gives at least $12,000 every Sunday and at least $2,000 on weekdays. He explained that his wealth does not depend on the offerings given by his church members, stating that he would remain “stinkingly rich” even if they stopped giving. “The minimum offering I give on Sundays is $12,000, and $2,000 on weekdays,” the pastor told his congregation. “Even if you don’t give me offerings, I will still be stinkingly rich.” Pastor Ibiyeomie used his personal giving habits as an example of how financial sacrifice leads to wealth.
