00:09:26,879 –> 00:09:30,879
misinformation linking these incidents to the Dangotte Group without evidence
140
00:09:30,919 –> 00:09:34,360
has compelled us to respond. We call on the public
141
00:09:34,399 –> 00:09:38,240
and the media to avoid spreading unverified claims. The statement
142
00:09:38,320 –> 00:09:42,000
partly read, we are committed to cooperating fully with the
143
00:09:42,080 –> 00:09:45,720
relevant authorities and insist that investigations should be allowed to
144
00:09:45,799 –> 00:09:50,080
run the course without interference. We strongly reject attempts to
145
00:09:50,159 –> 00:09:53,919
exploit tragedies like this for malicious or financial gain, The
146
00:09:54,000 –> 00:09:57,240

as bloggers, not to use his video contents on their
152
00:10:17,559 –> 00:10:20,279
page and if they do, he would report the video
153
00:10:20,399 –> 00:10:25,080
to the management of social media platforms like YouTube, Facebook,
154
00:10:25,279 –> 00:10:29,039
TikTok among other online platforms the video or videos were
155
00:10:29,039 –> 00:10:32,279
published and ensured the video or videos are broad down
156
00:10:32,440 –> 00:10:35,519
or removed. He stated this on Tuesday noon in a
157
00:10:35,639 –> 00:10:39,480
nine minutes video wherein he accused the media, especially those
158
00:10:39,519 –> 00:10:42,360
he referred to as bloggers, of not joining hands with
159
00:10:42,440 –> 00:10:45,480
him and others to launch massive campaign and awareness when
160
00:10:45,600 –> 00:10:48,480

Nigeria season seven winner i Juma Ottibor aka Feena, who
162
00:10:53,279 –> 00:10:56,840
allegedly needed more attention and care from Dangotte Group of
163
00:10:56,919 –> 00:11:01,120
company owned by africa richest man Aliko Dangotte, whose truck
164
00:11:01,200 –> 00:11:04,919
hit Ruth Ottobre. Few days after the accident, victim, Ruth
165
00:11:04,960 –> 00:11:08,759
Ottobor rounded off her examinations as a final year student
166
00:11:08,879 –> 00:11:13,519
of Federal Polytechnic in Auchi. But according to Ververidutman, soon

00:11:13,559 –> 00:11:16,799
after the death of the accident victim was announced on Sunday,
168
00:11:17,120 –> 00:11:21,879
bloggers started publishing the news stories massively continuing. Veri Dutmuann
169
00:11:21,879 –> 00:11:25,759
accused Fina of being a greedy person, saying Fina wrote
170
00:11:25,759 –> 00:11:29,039
a demand list of one billion naira to Dangotte even
171
00:11:29,200 –> 00:11:32,600
when she has not visited her sister in the hospital
172
00:11:32,639 –> 00:11:35,360
to know the true picture of her condition. In a
173
00:11:35,360 –> 00:11:39,120
swift reaction, a well known sex educator who uses raw
174
00:11:39,200 –> 00:11:44,320
words to pass across her teachings, iziegbeog Bede aka Ekia Queen,
175
00:11:44,399 –> 00:11:47,559
condemned the act of Veridartmann, saying it was the alleged
176
00:11:47,559 –> 00:11:51,080
greed of Fena that killed her sister, with Echiaquein accusing
177
00:11:51,159 –> 00:11:54,039
Veridutmun of being a liar who is trying to cause
178
00:11:54,120 –> 00:11:56,919
more pains to the bereaved Fina even when he knows
179
00:11:57,000 –> 00:12:00,000
her sister just died less than forty eight hours. Aga.
180
00:12:01,120 –> 00:12:04,360
We had reported that the management of Dangotte Group says
181
00:12:04,399 –> 00:12:07,120

made all necessary efforts to fly the accident victim abroad
185
00:12:19,159 –> 00:12:22,440
for the continuation of her medical treatment, but the company
186
00:12:22,639 –> 00:12:25,639
was waiting for her doctors to certify her fit for
187
00:12:25,720 –> 00:12:29,080
air travel. The company, owned by A. Leko Dangotte, the
188

196
00:13:01,320 –> 00:13:08,519
Speaker 2: Qui. Nigeria President Bulah Ahmed Tenubu has said that the
197
00:13:08,519 –> 00:13:12,080
West Africa country has no fear over whatever the President
198
00:13:12,120 –> 00:13:15,840
of the United States Donald Trump is doing, although the
199
00:13:15,919 –> 00:13:19,799
Nigeria president did not give details what the US president
200
00:13:20,000 –> 00:13:22,279
is doing that the nation has no fear of.
201
00:13:22,679 –> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: But President Tanubu at a meeting with political leaders at
202
00:13:26,440 –> 00:13:29,720
the State House in Abuja on Tuesday, said that the
203
00:13:29,759 –> 00:13:33,360
country has met its revenue target for twenty twenty five
204
00:13:33,480 –> 00:13:37,679
from non oil revenue sources, saying if Nigeria as at
205
00:13:37,720 –> 00:13:41,679
August has already met revenue target from non oil products,
206
00:13:42,039 –> 00:13:44,600
the country has no fear of whatever the President of
207
00:13:44,639 –> 00:13:48,919
the United States US is doing, adding that the economy
208
00:13:48,919 –> 00:13:53,080
of the country is now stabilized, saying the naira currency
209
00:13:53,200 –> 00:13:56,399
is now performing well in the foreign exchange market, with
210
00:13:56,480 –> 00:13:59,279
a claim he met dollar exchange rate at one thousand,
211
00:13:59,399 –> 00:14:02,960
nine hundred nairas per one dollar on May twenty ninth,
212
00:14:03,080 –> 00:14:05,960
twenty twenty three, when he took over as the president
213
00:14:06,039 –> 00:14:09,360
of the West Africa country, praising himself that he has
214
00:14:09,440 –> 00:14:12,919
worked hard to reduce the foreign exchange rate from one thousand,
215
00:14:13,080 –> 00:14:16,600
nine hundred nyras to one thousand, four hundred and fifty
216
00:14:16,679 –> 00:14:19,879
nyras per one dollar, a claim we fact checked to
217
00:14:19,919 –> 00:14:23,639
be very incorrect. We observed the President Boler Tanubu on
218
00:14:23,720 –> 00:14:27,559
May twenty ninth, twenty twenty three, met foreign exchange rate
219
00:14:27,600 –> 00:14:30,639

issued a policy statement directing the Central Bank of Nigeria
222
00:14:38,799 –> 00:14:42,440
to ensure a unified exchange rate, a policy statement that
223
00:14:42,519 –> 00:14:45,320
made the exchange rate to increase from four hundred and
224
00:14:45,399 –> 00:14:48,639
sixty one nyras to eight hundred and fifty three nyras
225
00:14:48,679 –> 00:14:51,320
per one dollar at the end of twenty twenty three.
226
00:14:51,840 –> 00:14:55,919
After the President boler Armed Tanubu officially pegged and increased
227
00:14:55,960 –> 00:14:59,480
the foreign exchange rate from four hundred and sixty one
228
00:14:59,559 –> 00:15:02,879
nyras to seven hundred and fifty nyers per one dollar
229
00:15:03,039 –> 00:15:06,320
in his twenty twenty four budget, which made cost of
230
00:15:06,399 –> 00:15:09,440
food stuffs and other cost of living in the country
231
00:15:09,519 –> 00:15:13,159
to increase more than two hundred percent, And while presenting
232
00:15:13,200 –> 00:15:17,440
the twenty twenty five budget, President boler Armed Tanubu peg
233
00:15:17,559 –> 00:15:20,879
and increased the foreign exchange rate from seven hundred and
234
00:15:21,000 –> 00:15:24,919
fifty nyers to one thousand, five hundred nyras per one dollar.
235
00:15:25,360 –> 00:15:28,600
This policy action of the President has since made cost
236
00:15:28,639 –> 00:15:32,600
of foodstuffs and other basic necessities in Nigeria to increase
237
00:15:32,639 –> 00:15:36,799
outrageously more than seven hundred percent with no reduction till date.
238
00:15:37,399 –> 00:15:40,080
Like a sachet water that used to be sold for
239
00:15:40,159 –> 00:15:43,679
five nyras is now sold between twenty nyers to fifteen
240
00:15:43,759 –> 00:15:48,080
nyras in some locations in Nigeria. Details of some of

revenue target for twenty twenty five was achieved in August
245
00:16:04,600 –> 00:16:08,679
following economic reforms focused on stimulating the non oil sector.
246
00:16:09,399 –> 00:16:11,720
He said that the bulk of the revenue came from
247
00:16:11,759 –> 00:16:15,679
the non oil sector. The President assured Nigerians that the
248
00:16:15,720 –> 00:16:19,840

Nobody is trading pieces of paper for foreign exchange for
256
00:16:50,399 –> 00:16:54,399
X any more. The economy is now predictable. You do
257
00:16:54,480 –> 00:16:58,399
not need to know the CBN Governor Yemi Cardoso to
258
00:16:58,480 –> 00:17:02,519
obtain foreign exchange or import goods. What we need now
259
00:17:02,600 –> 00:17:05,079
is building the ship and the vessels for the export
260
00:17:05,119 –> 00:17:07,880
