Netizens Question Gateway Air Aircraft’s Angola Operations

  Netizens Question Gateway Air Aircraft’s Angola Operations The newly acquired Gateway Air aircraft has come under scrutiny after social media users spotted it operating a domestic flight in Angola, sparking questions about the airline’s route allocation. X user @kayi20311 raised the issue in a post, questioning why the aircraft was operating within Angola rather than Nigeria, where the airline is based.

Things are getting better for very poor people in Nigeria — Tinubu’s aide

  Things are getting better for very poor people in Nigeria — Tinubu’s aide President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Economic Affairs,  Tope Fasua , has stated that the living conditions are improving for Nigeria’s poorest population, as the Federal Government allocates more resources to states and local governments. Fasua made the remarks during an interview with Seun Okinbaloye on Channels Television on Sunday while defending the Tinubu administration’s handling of poverty and the economy. He said the fight against poverty is rooted at the local government level, which explains Tinubu’s push for local government autonomy. He also said state governments now have greater financial strength because of the increased funds available to them. According to him, the era when civil servants were owed salaries for six, 12 or even 18 months has ended, while pensioners are also receiving their payments more regularly.
