Ifeanyi Ubah joins APC in pursuit of igbo nation

The Senator representing Anambra South Senatorial District, Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah CON, has officially joined Nigeria’s ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).

During today’s brief plenary, Senate President Senator Godswill Akpabio read this on the Senate floor.

Senator Ubah, by this move, aims to join forces with other Igbo Progressives and stakeholders in changing the present disadvantaged position of Ndi Igbo in national politics.

“Today, I have moved from the Young Progressives Party, YPP, to the All Progressives Congress, in accordance with my progressive agenda for an Igbo nation that will take back its pride of place in the national hemisphere,” Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah announced.

The idea bearer, Senator Ubah, is, by this deft move, pushing for a reconnect to the centre in the post-Buhari era in order to help negotiate better on the various needs of the Southeast region in terms of security, infrastructural development, and restoration of the Igbo man’s pride of place in the equitable distribution of national resources.

According to Senator Ubah, while addressing the media after the plenary, “The idea that things have gotten so bad that politicians from other zones can afford to lose the votes from the five southeastern states and yet win the presidential election is a huge anomaly that contributed hugely to my decision to lead my people back into national reckoning”

Recall that Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah CON has set an unprecedented record in national politics by adopting the YPP berthed in 2017 and using the political platform to not just win his senatorial elections in 2019 and 2023 but also successfully midwifed the election of a YPP Federal House of Representatives seat as well as three state Houses of Assembly seats, with two other Federal House of Representatives seats reportedly won by the party and still hotly contested at the tribunal.

This decision is set to help the Senator better the lot of his people and bring about better dividends of democracy, as well as other interventions geared towards eradicating the insecurity in the Southeast region.

  1. Hey this is somewhat of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!

Nigeria moves to deploy AI, anti-drone systems for military operations

Nigeria has announced plans to deploy artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced anti-drone systems as part of a major overhaul of its military operations, according to TheCable.   The Minister of Defence, Christopher Musa, disclosed the development while leading a high-level delegation to Monaco to finalise discussions on the Hybrid Intelligence Shield (HIS) project.   The initiative is designed to strengthen border security, protect urban centres and improve Nigeria’s response to evolving security threats, including insurgency, banditry, piracy and oil theft.   Under the proposed system, AI-powered surveillance technology will be deployed to rapidly detect and analyse threats using smart algorithms, while anti-drone technology will be used to intercept and neutralise unmanned aerial systems that may pose security risks.   The plan also includes the establishment of national and regional command-and-control centres to enhance real-time coordination and operational response across security agencies.   Musa said the project will prioritise technology transfer and local capacity development through the creation of a military “Centre of Excellence” in Nigeria.   The Defence Ministry is also expected to work with international partners, including Marss UK Ltd, while building indigenous capacity to address internal security challenges.   Nigeria continues to face multiple security threats across different regions, prompting growing calls from security experts for the adoption of advanced technologies such as AI surveillance systems, drones and integrated intelligence platforms to support military operations, TheCable reports.
