I know I'm not a USD centimillionaire like P.O., but that's exactly what I did at my own level.

The COS and 5-year UK work visa with pathway to ILR that you people spend years killing yourselves over is what I voluntarily gave up. My nice 2-bedroom terraced house in Cowgate, Newcastle with my manicured lawn in front, my beautiful garden at the back, and my little Fiat 500 parked on my driveway is what I gave up. The person who took the property after I left is also a Nigerian and he's here on Twitter. My comfortable £40,000/year Project Management role at an electric vehicle startup, with my office window directly facing St James' Park is what I gave up. Free tickets to watch Newcastle beat PSG in the Champions League is what I gave up.

I had a life that many of you would consider to be the dream, and I gave it all up and came back to Africa for one simple reason - I cannot believe in 2 contradictory things at the same time. I cannot serve and exist inside the imperial system that I hate, then come here everyday to tell Africans to rebel against that system. That would make me a hypocrite. As soon as I understood the full ugliness of the empire I was always criticising, remaining there would have been the same thing as cosigning it with my labour, my money and my participation.

If you believe in something, you should be willing to sacrifice for it and even take pain for it. And if I can hold myself to that standard, then I can definitely hold my would-be political leaders to that same standard. And if it's not "fair" to expect any sacrifice from them, then they should go buy an island villa in the Maldives and sip sherries for the rest of their days. Nobody is forcing anybody to be in politics and Peter Obi is not a deity that is above criticism.

Mao Zedong once led his Red Army on a 6,000km foot trek during winter without food supplies. He used to go to sleep cold and hungry like his men. That's what it can take to be a revolutionary leader. Nobody is asking Peter Obi to do even 2% of that, so why do you people always get so defensive whenever his name is mentioned in any context except blind adulation? Why aren't we allowed to ask why the Nigerian political leader whose entire platform is built on revolutionary ideas does not want to do what it takes to bring those ideas to reality? And if he's too cool to lead poor bastards like us, then what is he doing there? Why do we need him?

Is he a greater or more important leader than Chairman Mao?

The US, under Trump is a rouge terrorist-baby and girls killing-state. Twice, the Iranians were baited to negotiations while attack plans were being perfected. So called rules based order upended

[Abu Nkem @0xMol]

@Enitsugua380 @PastorMarvy And was Iran amongst the Arab countries that launched invasion against Israel? Spoke so much misinformation with confidence. Original post is right Iran has never had an unprovoked first strike on Israel. In fact Iran recognised the state of Israel and made it official in 1950.

@itz_smils Know yourself and know thy enemy and you'll triumph. There's wisdom in understanding that you cannot take your enemy head-on.

Twice in less than a year, the #US has shown that its diplomacy is fake. Israel & the US are attacking #Iran right after it made a deal offer. This isn’t about WMDs — it’s about US-Israeli control over the region.

There is nothing new about false rape allegation. Women have been weaponizing rape since forever. The thing about false rape allegation is that you don’t even have to be physically present to be accused. Justin UG was in America and he was accused of raping somebody in Abuja at the same time. Alibi saved him.

If you were here 2018 - 2020, we’re waking up to false rape allegation every morning.

- You sleep with a guy and regret your decision on the morning. RAPE
- You sleep with a guy and he did not give you enough money. RAPE
- You visited a guy and he did not like you like you liked him. RAPE
- You don’t like somebody’s tweet. RAPE
- The guy you like, likes your friend. RAPE
- You seduced a guy and he turned you down. RAPE

Potiphar’s wife falsely accused Joseph. I have seen Nwaboi that was falsely accused by madam and he was lovked up by Oga. Young men have been called rapists for refusing to sleep with babe that wants to sleep with them. They have been called rapists for refusing to date women that wants to date them. Somebody was beaten and sent to jail because his girlfriend couldn’t tell her father that she was already having sex, so she lied she was raped. A woman hates you, she calls you rapist. Even small disagreement on X and you’re already being called a rapist. It is weaponized at will and for convenience.

False rape allegation is not an exception. It is a common reality. Fake rape allegation is not why victims of rape are not getting justice. That is a diversion. Rape exist in our society because rapist exists. False rape allegations exits because women are weaponizing rape and getting away with it. The court will determine if rape did occur or not, and who the gavel should come down on. Until there is commensurate punishment for false rape allegation, it will not stop. Nothing ruins faster than false rape allegation. We have made progress by always investigating every allegation and asking for evidence before publicly destroying a person. But we also need punishment for it embedded in the criminal code.

Having said that, if someone falsely accuses you of rape, deal with them like you would anyone who made an attempt on your life, because that is exactly what happened.

You're hilariously mistaken because the US did the exact same thing to Islam, just not directly. Through its primary muslim vassal state Saudi Arabia, millions of petrodollars were funnelled into the Muslim World League starting in the same period in the 1970s.

Prior to the MWL, Islam was one of the world's strongest pro-leftist influences. Muslim countries overwhelmingly adopted socialism (since Islam's tenets are fundamentally aligned with socialism), which made Islam a similar kind of threat to the Christian Liberation Theology in Africa and South America.

So the Yanks and the Saudis deployed the MWL and put hundreds of millions of dollars behind it. Its mission was to export Wahhabi/Salafi Islam (which until that point was a niche sect of Sunni Islam which most Muslims did not even regard). The Wahhabi movement exported a politically neutered, pro-Capitslist version of Islam where collectivist doctrine was replaced by endless performances of individual piety and economic rewards in exchange for quiet compliance and doctrinal alignment.

It might not surprise you to know that the Izala Movement in Nigeria, which emerged in 1979 and introduced widespread disturbance and fanaticism to Nigerian Islam, was directly funded and incubated by the Saudi MWL, under the careful watch of the US State Department.

The goal was twofold:

1. Create a class of indoctrinated jihadi militants who could be used by the US as a proxy army to do the dirty jobs it couldn't be seen doing (Sahel, Afghanistan, Northern Nigeria, Syria etc), and more importantly,

2. Permanently distort popular Islamic doctrine and subordinate it to brutal US-aligned monarchies, such that it can never play the powerful pro democracy, anti-capitalist rolr it once played in the Middle East (the nexus of the inhabited world) in the mid 20th century.

Once again, nothing - NOTHING - is off limits to these people.

@whylree @BrantPhilip_ Since you know so much about geopolitics I’d like you to enlighten me on how there’s zero possibility that Belgium, a NATO member and known broker/intermediary with no colonial guilt in Burkina, could intercede in a situation involving a C-130. Teach me geopolitics sir, please.

@rilwan_ola01 Coups r simply bout who controls power, talks of discontent bla bla are excuses. It's happened in places with "good governance" &how do you even define citizen content?If coup was d answer, massive transformations should follow in places where theyve taken place&that isn't d case

@BrantPhilip_ So a High level military/diplomatic delegation came. Interesting.

@ZagazOlaMakama @DHQNigeria @HQNigerianArmy This is inevitable in modern warfare, It's left for us to use these OSINT weaknesses to our advantage and prepare complex deceptive means. Meanwhile, the relocation of ISWAP is itself an Intelligence clue

@mardortii @fattylincorn_01 @EleyiLagos He’ll resign from senate if he wants to take up the ambassadorial appointment. It might be a political calculation to compensate him for pending replacement of the senate representative for his constituency

[Abu Nkem @0xMol]

@fattylincorn_01 Political appointees not trained foreign service officers. They may or may not have prior diplomatic experience. They simply aren’t fully trained formally for foreign service and didn’t have a career i.e. rise through official foreign service ladder).
