Both astronauts have lived at the space station for almost eight months instead of just over a week as planned.

Shehu Sani blasted the National Population Commission for asking for nearly one trillion naira just to count people across Nigeria. The former federal lawmaker called their massive budget request complete craziness. President Bola Tinubu shot down their plan, which would have cost N942 billion to run the national housing and population census this year.

Sani publicly backed Tinubu's decision Saturday through his verified X account. He wrote that asking for almost a trillion naira merely to count Nigerians represents total insanity. The former lawmaker specifically praised the President's firm stand against approving such an enormous amount of...
