We've heard and have continued to hear scurrilous and incendiary narratives from government officials, all defending their masters and the status quo. That's partisan politics.

The objective verdict resides with ordinary citizens who seek a new path for their future

[Boney Akaeze @13_boney]

Our schools and religious centres fail to cultivate ethics and values. Political parties present contest elections without imparting ideology or civic philosophy. The elections are war.

It's a nation without national civic culture, moving onward but not moving forward.

@seyitinubulover Her husband was Governor for 8 years. What should make sense is the acts of luxury and proflegacy of hers linked to public funds.

The more people vilify this couple, the more they ridicule themselves.

[Boney Akaeze @13_boney]

@OlayinkaLere At a time when the reputation of Nigeria’s political elite has been badly tarnished across the world, PO has emerged as an exceptional political leader and redeemptive figure widely associated with integrity and high reputation.
Vilify him and earn ridicule for yourself.

Management of fuel subsidy operations was ruined by corruption. Management of the removal of same subsidy also ruined by corruption. It is the result of extractive political and economic systems.

[Boney Akaeze @13_boney]

The removal of fuel subsidy without draining the swamp is bravado, not bravery.

[Boney Akaeze @13_boney]

Economic growth do happen under extractive institutions but it's never sustainable. The gains are distributed in rent seeking and patronage networks and it ultimately ends in progress coexisting with worsening poverty. This is Nigeria's development paradox.

[Boney Akaeze @13_boney]

@OlayinkaLere That's how to fund a political party, take it away from money bags and make it citizens driven. Those who pay the piper, dectate the tune.

Today, the Students Loan Scheme is trumpeted as a great achievement of PBAT. How can a credit scheme be praised without its repayment rate established?
In 2024, I said that the scheme is primarily directed at micro-targeting of youth voters, and that's truly what it is.

[Boney Akaeze @13_boney]

A common defense of the removal of fuel subsidy by the government spokesman is that the scheme was riddled with corruption. Where are those facing the law on account of their acts of corruption in the scheme? Is the government so helpless in this regard?

@TheNationNews Did the DSS conduct the investigation as reported by Mr. Amachree? Those ladies referred to by the former AD in the DSS, and the others in the DSS high command at the time, is there no one still alive? If Amachree's account shouldn't hold, why should Mj. Al Mustapha's version?

[Boney Akaeze @13_boney]

@hintmas @ARISEtv Let's watch and see.

However, one thing is very clear. Nigeria now has an exponentially growing voting demographics of a generation to whom religious and tribal bigotry are outright bunkom.

@vanguardngrnews So in Sister Abike too, the man died? What a falling!

Peter Obi raised monsters, Obidients will be his downfall - Abike Dabiri

The Chairman of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM), Abike Dabiri-Erewa, has criticised supporters of Peter Obi, describing them as “monsters” and warning that they could undermine his political ambitions ahead of the 2027 elections https://t.co/RoMh9qSLRd

From the reports I have received, our armed forces have been conducting sustained, intense land and air offensives against the insurgents, neutralising many terrorist fighters and commanders. The insurgents’ counterattack is a sign of desperation.

I extend my condolences to the families of our gallant soldiers, led by  Brigadier-General Oseni Omoh Braimah, who made the ultimate sacrifice in the defence of our country in Borno State.

The government will never forget their sacrifices. Their sacrifices will not be in vain. Because of the courage and dedication of our troops on the frontline, our resolve to defeat terrorism and all forms of violence across Nigeria is stronger than ever.

I urge the Military High Command and our troops in all theatres of operation: Do not lose heart, do not be weary, do not be discouraged.

Our officers and men should continue to serve with honour, courage, and patriotism. The government will always stand by the Armed Forces, provide more of the equipment needed and ensure the welfare of all who risk their lives for our safety.

I urge Nigerians and the media to continue to support our Military in their relentless battle against insurgency and banditry. We should desist from celebrating or condoning the attacks against our troops. These soldiers are our heroes; unforgettable and irreplaceable.

My condolences also go to the government and people of Borno State. The Federal Government will continue to work with the state government to achieve total victory and lasting peace.

@renoomokri If coup executors strick, they must kill both those who surrendered to them and those who resisted and confronted them with guns, and those who responsible for electoral violence in the 1965 regional elections just to placate ethnic and regional jingoists.

@thecableng Section 10 of Nigeria's extant Constitution explicitly states that "The Government of the Federation or of a State shall not adopt any religion as State Religion". Sharia Law shares the status of Customary Law, it cann't override Nigeria 's Constitution

[Boney Akaeze @13_boney]

@cbngov_akin1 @PeterObi The prudence, decipline and ethical standard demonstrated by PO as Governor of Anambra State will remain the threshold for the integrity required of public office holders in Africa. Facts of history are resilient, and hatred is too fickle to erase them.

[Boney Akaeze @13_boney]

@SaharaReporters Minister Wike and his co-norms breakers have been doing anyhow, they're now seeing anyhow. There is no civility in the jungle. BPAB has set Nigeria on free fall with his deployment of political hatchet men.

[Boney Akaeze @13_boney]

The economic statistics that truly reflect transformative governance are not those that merely indicate sectoral expansion, but those that demonstrate tangible improvements in the living conditions of the masses — the real outcomes and impact of effective public policies.
