DR. OLUWATOYIN SHAKIRAT MADEIN

Xclusive Interactive (literary edition) curtesy of BellaNaija, brings you an interesting interview with Nigeria’s first female Accountant General of the Federation, Dr. Oluwatoyin Shakirat Madein.

In 2023, Oluwatoyin Shakirat Madein was appointed as the Accountant-General of the Federation by former President Muhammadu Buhari. She made history as the first woman to fully occupy this position.

On the 10th of March, Oluwatoyin retired from the public service. We sat down with her to reflect on her time at the office, what it means to be the first female Accountant-General of the Federation and advice for young women aspiring for leadership positions in the country.

Enjoy the conversation!

Hello Dr Oluwatoyin. How are you today?

I am very well. Thank you for asking.

Woman arrested after confessing to removing a man's genitals and heart and eating the body parts, leaving a note next to his remains

A Brazilian pensioner has been arrested after she confessed to removing and eating a man's heart and genitals. 

According to Mail Online, Celso Marques Ferreira, 60, was found dead without his penis and part of his heart in a town square in the beach resort of Peruibe - a two-hour drive south of Sao Paulo.

A blood-stained note had been left alongside the homeless man's mutilated body which claimed a woman known as 'gringa' - the nickname suspect Josefa Lima de Sousa uses - was responsible.

A knife with dried blood on the blade was also found at the scene.

TikTok Sale | Trump says US talking to four different groups

 

President Donald Trump said on Sunday that his administration was in touch with some groups about the sale of Chinese-owned social media platform TikTok, and that all options were good.

Aboard Air Force ONE, U.S. President Donald Trump said that his administration was in touch with four different groups.

TikTok's fate has been up in the air since a law requiring its owner ByteDance to either sell it on national security grounds or face a ban took effect on January 19.

Reportedly, the law banning TikTok materialized amid concerns that the Chinese government could exploit the app for surveillance or covertly influence US public opinion. As the deadline approached, TikTok temporarily shut down its services in the United States and disappeared from app stores, sparking outrage among its millions of American users. However, after beginning his second term in January, Trump suspended the implementation of the ban for two-and-a-half months in an effort to negotiate a resolution with Beijing. This allowed TikTok to restore service and return to Apple and Google app stores in February.

NRM EXPOSES POLITICAL JOBBERS

The attention of the National Rescue Movement (NRM) has been drawn to a publication by one Iliyasu Adamu, masquerading as leading the northern caucus of the party pledging support for Edozie Njoku’s fake leadership.

Ordinarily we would not have dignified the said Iliyasu Adamu who obviously is a political jobber that must have been sponsored by the embattled Edozie Njoku, who is desperately seeking relevance to the illegality perpetrated in connivance with Isaac Udeh, the former National Chairman of National Rescue Movement; but to avoid the situation where unsuspecting and ignorant members of the party will be misled by this political propaganda, we have decided to clarify issue as follows:

1. That the Iliyasu Adamu has ceased to be a member of our great party, having been expelled from the party since 2022, when a validly constituted National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting, chaired by Mr. Isaac Udeh who was then the National Chairman of the party. Funny enough it is the same Udeh that has turned the same Adamu to a mere tool of propaganda.
