Before, whenever I hear ‘he sold his soul to the devil’
What comes to mind is ‘illum!nati’.. Or at least ‘Ogboni’
Thinking of it.. Lives were lost and Chief Priest really said.. “This was clearly done to embarrass our president on his birthday”
Define ‘selling of soul’ again
When foolish Nigerian men look at your daughters and use phrases like:
"My wife my wife"
"Our wife"
And you don't respond in anger or resounding slaps, you are also encouraging paedophilia.
Paedophilia can be expressed subtly in expressions.
Be LOUD against it.
Happy birthday your Excellency @PeterObi . Thank you for all you did for us in Bokkos’s. The children and I celebrate you.
May the tears ahead be rewarding. Cheers to many more years sir.
Reflections on My 65th Birthday
Today, July 19, 2026, marks my 65th birthday. At sixty-five, birthdays should naturally become moments of deep reflection - moments to look back with gratitude to Almighty God for His abundant graces, examine the journey so far, and ask how the remaining years can be devoted more meaningfully to the service of God and humanity.
Perhaps in countries where basic human needs have largely been met, where institutions function effectively, and where citizens enjoy a greater measure of security and dignity, such attainments may rightly call for elaborate celebrations. In Nigeria, however, our reality compels a different kind of reflection.
Our nation is blessed with enormous human and natural resources, yet millions of our people continue to struggle with challenges that demand our collective attention. We cannot afford to celebrate ourselves excessively while many around us are burdened by poverty, ill health, unemployment, and limited opportunities. Rather, occasions such as this should remind us of our responsibility to contribute towards building a nation where future generations can genuinely celebrate.
This is why I have always seen birthdays not merely as occasions for personal celebration, but as opportunities for sober reflection, thanksgiving, and a renewed commitment to service.
As I reflected today, I came to a simple conclusion: the greatest celebration of life is not what we receive from others, but the lives we can touch positively.
This conviction has guided my approach throughout my years in business, in the corporate world, and as Governor of Anambra State. In each of these roles, I have tried to see every privilege not as a personal entitlement but as an opportunity to improve the lives of others.
Whenever people or institutions sought to celebrate me with expensive gifts or elaborate ceremonies, I encouraged them instead to redirect those resources towards projects that would have a lasting impact. Over the years, this philosophy has resulted in the building of schools, hostel blocks, support to schools, and other facilities that continue to benefit the less privileged. I have always believed that resources meant for personal comfort can often be transformed into instruments of hope for many.
The greatest honour anyone can receive is not found in gifts, ceremonies, or public admiration, but in knowing that one’s life has contributed, however modestly, to making another person’s life better.
Today, therefore, I give thanks to Almighty God for the gift of life and for bringing me to this important milestone of 65 years. I began the day with a Mass of Thanksgiving in Onitsha, thanking God for His grace, protection, guidance, and the countless blessings He has bestowed upon me over the years.
After the Mass, I proceeded to St. Raphael’s Hospital, Umueri, a small rural hospital in Anambra East Local Government Area. In furtherance of my belief that birthdays should be occasions for service rather than self-indulgence, I donated the sum of ₦10 million to support the hospital’s work of providing quality healthcare to the people.
As I was conducted around the hospital and saw patients in their moments of vulnerability, I was reminded again of our shared humanity. Some of those receiving care may not even have the financial means to settle their hospital bills, yet they deserve compassion, dignity, and access to quality healthcare. Their condition was a reminder that leadership, in its truest form, is about caring for people, especially those who cannot repay our kindness.
Hospitals and schools remain two of the greatest investments any society can make. A hospital preserves life; a school shapes the future. Supporting both is, therefore, not just an act of charity - it is an investment in humanity and in the future of our nation.
If all Ronaldo's followers on IG alone gathered in one place and named it Ronaldoland, it would automatically become the 3rd most populated country in the world.
The Netherlands has a total land area of approximately 41,543 km². In contrast, Niger State (Nigeria's largest state by landmass) covers approximately 76,363 km², but the Netherlands is the world's second-largest agricultural exporter, earning over $140 billion annually, while Nigeria generates around $6 billion.
I want to create and share a spotify playlist for 90's babies.
A playlist that makes nostalgia hit like crack.
The song that inspired this tweet is: "Life is for rent by Dido"
Quote & comment with songs that you'd like to see on that playlist (similar genre, please)
