SUMMARY
PDP’s political drama is giving Nollywood a run for its money as Wike’s camp digs up Atiku’s old sins, while Peter Obi’s 2027 presidential dreams hit turbulence with claims that Labour Party has no future. Senator Ireti Kingibe adds fuel to the fire, alleging that Natasha Akpoti is getting VIP treatment over other female senators, and in a classic plot twist, Tinubu is urged to crown MKO Abiola as Nigeria’s rightful president—posthumously. Meanwhile, Mercy Eke turns heads in her brand-new Lamborghini, Daniel Regha takes a Twitter jab at Burna Boy, and a mischievous Nigerian prankster convinces his younger brother that a Business Studies exam is a bank account requirement—comedy gold! Over in sports, Arsenal makes moves for a Bayern Munich superstar, Garnacho’s apology tour begins, and Beau Greaves storms through the UK Open like she owns it. Back home, a devastating fire at a Borno IDP camp leaves heartbreak in its wake, fake vehicle stickers land two fraudsters in NSCDC’s net, and Rivers State politics continues its never-ending drama after the Supreme Court’s latest ruling. Globally, Trump is all smiles about Gaza peace talks, Russia suddenly wants to be friends with the U.S. again, and Zelenskyy is in America, not for vacation, but to ink a mineral deal with Trump—oh, and in case you missed it, Ramadan is officially here, as the moon has been sighted in Saudi Arabia. Buckle up, people—it’s a wild world out there! 
Where headlines shape history, and stories build tomorrow.
