Several youths who tagged themselves ‘Occupy National Assembly’, on Tuesday, stormed the National Assembly demanding  the immediate resignation of the Senate President, Bukola Saraki.
Saraki is being prosecuted by the Federal Government before the CCT on 13 counts, including keeping a foreign account and making false asset declaration in the forms he submitted to the CCB between 2003 and 2011 when he served as the governor of Kwara State.

  Actor and chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Kenneth Okonkwo, says ahead of the 2027 election, any vote for the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi, is a vote for president Bola Tinubu.   Okonkwo made this statement in an interview with Symfoni.   “It’s either you are working for Tinubu directly or indirectly because when you divide the votes of some of the coalition or the opposition, you are still making Tinubu to win.
