Nigerian banks’ charges need to be challenged – Comedian AY

Popular comedian and filmmaker, Ayo Makun, also known as AY, has expressed concern over ridiculous service charges by Nigerian commercial banks.
He questioned how Nigerian banks can report trillions of Naira in profits each quarter, even amid a struggling economy.
The actor noted that some of the service fees are peculiar to Nigeria, stressing that they need to be challenged.
On his X handle, AY wrote, “Where do banks get the trillions they declare as profits every quarter, even in a struggling economy? The small charges and debits on our accounts need to be challenged. Many of these fees are unique to Nigeria. Why is that? #BankingFees #Nigeria #Transparency #Shalom”

Edo killings: We can’t be counting scores with lives of Nigerians – Mr Macaroni

Popular content creator, Mr Macaroni said those defending the mob killings of 16 travellers in Uromi, Edo State are doing a great disservice to the nation.
He said there is no justification for jungle justice, noting that it must be unanimously condemned.
Mr Macaroni stated this in an X post on Monday.
“Dearest Nigerians, please we must resist the urge to defend evil of any kind.
“Crime is Crime!Whenever we justify crime, we open the door for criminals to keep committing crime.
“We cannot be counting scores with the lives of Nigerians while those that are responsible for safeguarding the lives of the people continue to play politics.
The mobbing and killing of the 16 northern hunters in Edo State is evil just as any previous attack on the lives of Edo people is also evil.
“The killing or destruction of lives and properties of any Nigerian in any state is evil!”
He added, “We have a duty to speak against evil at all times whether it affects us or not lest we lose our humanity.”

Bobrisky pens emotional tribute to late mother, reveals personal hardships

Controversial crossdresser Bobrisky has written a poignant homage to his late mother, reflecting on the heavy responsibilities he has assumed since her death.
In an emotional Instagram post on Tuesday, Bobrisky discussed the devastating impact of his mother’s death, describing it as a heartbreaking experience that has altered his life and duties after her passing.
The crosdresser thought on the devastating loss of his mother, who died in Mecca on October 28, 2008.
He revealed that her final words to him were a sincere request to care for his elder brother.
“I remember 28 October 2008 you called me and said bobo Omo mi incase I don’t make it back to Nigeria pls take care of ur brother. I asked you why should I be the one to take care of my brother?
“You said because you feel I’m stronger and have got thick skin,” he recounted, expressing the pain of losing her the very next day.
“Sadly, the next day I heard you pass away in MECCA Saudi. I keep screaming mummy mummy but you are far gone from this world.”
Since her death, Bobrisky claimed to have taken on the responsibility of caring for his family, including his grandmother, who is now 87 years old and in good health.
He also stated that he supports his elder brother, who has a family of his own.
“I’m still the one taking care of them till date. Mummy, ur baby need more strength to continue this responsibility,” he wrote.
He added that the year 2024 was particularly challenging for him, marked by significant financial losses and a controversial situation involving the EFCC related to currency issues.
He noted that sharing his struggles online often invites ridicule, as many have been anticipating his downfall.
“I went through hell in Nigeria as at 2024, I lost so much money.
“I can’t come online to cry because many of them will laugh at me because they have been waiting for this moment. Mummy, I need ur strength right now.
“I can’t say much here on the internet; all I need now is more strength,” he concluded.
