A supporter of President Bola Tinubu in Kebbi State, Adamu Yahaya, popularly known as Adam Fakai, says he has stopped promoting the Federal Government’s programmes, claiming he received no recognition or support from leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Fakai became popular on social media for visiting major Federal Government projects, including road construction sites, and sharing photographs, videos, and reports showcasing the Tinubu administration’s achievements, earning him both criticism and, at times, praise.

In a statement posted on his social media pages, Fakai said: “I have spent more than two years using my money, time and energy to promote the programmes and achievements of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration to Nigerians in both the North and South. I did so because I believed in his efforts to build a better Nigeria.”

Fakai said that despite his commitment, he did not receive any encouragement, appreciation, or support from APC leaders in Kebbi State or at the national level.

“I am from Kebbi State, and throughout this period, I never received any form of encouragement or support from politicians in my party, either at the state or federal level,” he wrote

He further claimed , “It is unfortunate that some prominent figures at the federal level use the pictures and videos of government projects that I captured and shared, yet none has ever contacted me directly.”

Fakai added that he believes he might have received more support if he had come from another state, saying the feeling of being ignored influenced his decision to stop promoting the administration.

He, however, thanked those who supported him with prayers and words of encouragement.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is the latest tech executive to offer lengthy thoughts on how AI safety might be improved.

In a Saturday morning post on X, Nadella wrote that it’s time “to step back and assess the trust architecture” of AI.

“We can’t treat Super Intelligence as a set of nested black boxes and simply accept or reject its recommendations, answers, and actions,” Nadella wrote, using the Trump administration’s preferred term for AI. 

As outlined by Nadella, this approach “means separating the model from the harness that orchestrates its work,” as well as “externalizing controls and safeguards.” He also called for “every meaningful model action” to be documented with “tamper-proof human readable evidence,” and for systems where “an authorized person” always has the ability “to pause or shut down a model mid-task.”

“We must assume a model is compromised and contain it from the start,” he said. “Think of it like an emergency brake.”

Nadella’s comments come as leading AI companies acknowledge more and more incidents where they seemed to lose control of their models, and after Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei published a plan for more cautious AI development.
