I’m not used to putting my bible close to me when sleeping, Something told me to do so last night. waking up this morning, I noticed this verse opened. Christ is coming!!!
The truth is always so simple. The complexities reside in humans. Only one thing is needful - knowing Christ. The current "emergencies" and "urgencies" of life are mere smokescreens. Once you lay hold on Christ, which means actually discovering that HE had first laid hold on you, all other things fade away. You'll watch them fall to the ground to your avail. But HE must first teach you His rest.
DEMOCRACY DAY MESSAGE BY HON. IFE SALAKO
June 12, 2026
My dear people of Alimosho Federal Constituency and Nigerians at large,
As we commemorate Democracy Day today, June 12, I join millions of Nigerians in honoring the sacrifices of our democratic heroes who fought tirelessly for freedom, justice, equity, and the right of the people to choose their leaders.
June 12 remains a symbol of the people's will, courage, and determination to build a nation where every citizen can live in peace, dignity, and prosperity. Sadly, as we celebrate this historic day, our nation is confronted with enormous challenges that continue to test the strength of our democracy.
Across the country, innocent children, teachers, women, and men are being kidnapped by criminals. Families live in fear, communities are under siege, and many parents are uncertain about the safety of their children. The recent abductions of schoolchildren and teachers in different parts of Nigeria remind us that our nation must urgently prioritize the protection of lives and property.
Beyond insecurity, millions of Nigerians are battling severe economic hardship. Hunger, poverty, unemployment, inflation, and the rising cost of living have pushed many families to the brink. Citizens work tirelessly but can barely afford food, healthcare, education, and transportation. The gap between the hopes of our people and the realities they face continues to widen.
Democracy must be more than periodic elections; it must translate into good governance, accountability, security, economic opportunities, and a better quality of life for the people. A democracy that cannot protect its citizens or provide basic necessities requires sincere reflection and urgent action from those entrusted with leadership.
Despite these challenges, I remain optimistic about the future of Nigeria. Our resilience as a people has always been our greatest strength. Together, we can build a nation where justice prevails, where every child can go to school without fear, where every citizen can earn a decent living, and where the government truly serves the people.
As I often say, "If you don't do politics, politics will do you." This is a reminder that citizens must actively participate in shaping the future of our nation through responsible civic engagement and democratic participation.
On this Democracy Day, let us regnite our commitment to nation-building, unity, justice, and the pursuit of a better Nigeria for all.
Happy Democracy
Hon. Ife Salako
For House of Representatives
Alimosho Federal Constituency
Do y’all ever start worshipping God and suddenly burst into tears? Not because you’re hurting but because He’s been so good to you over and over again even when you know you don’t deserve it. 😩😭🙌🏾 His grace, mercy and love overwhelm me every time. I love Him so much.
Good morning, everyone.
To all those paid agents engaged in a campaign to demarket His Excellency, Peter Obi, my name is Dr. Yunusa Tanko, and I stand firmly by these words.
Thank you.
There's panic in Aso Rock. That's why they unleashed data boys headed by Onanuga against Peter Obi. The Obi/Kwankwaso ticket is a bomb. The North is embracing the ticket. The Southeast and Southsouth is for the Ticket. Tinubu has only the Southwest and it's not guaranteed.
Peter Obi is coming and Nigeria will be OK.
Baba had an accident some months ago, and as a result he had a broken spinal cord, he became totally paralyzed and couldn’t speak.
His wife wheeled him into church this morning hoping for a miracle to happen.
While God’s servant @drpaulenenche was ministering & taking authority over the spirit of infirmity & every crippling condition, the power of God touched him, he stood up from the wheelchair himself…
His wife couldn’t believe it — she was literally in tears.
Baba came out pushing his wheelchair & walking by himself for the first time in months. He spoke for the first time in a long time, his wife was screaming and rejoicing.
God is good. All glory be to God Almighty.
A child of GRACE.
Happy Birthday Ife Salako.
I’m always in awe of how much God loves me and He proves it to me every time.
Thank you all for the well wishes. I am grateful.

Building a Healthier Nigeria Through Stronger Healthcare Systems
As part of our desire and commitment to building a healthier Nigeria, I met with some healthcare professionals and experts in the United States on Friday, June 5, 2026. The meeting was essentially to deepen my understanding of how successful health insurance systems deliver improved healthcare, especially in the areas of primary and emergency care.
One of our key health objectives remains unchanged: to expand health insurance coverage, strengthen primary healthcare across our electoral wards, train more healthcare workers, and make quality healthcare accessible and affordable for all Nigerians.
A New Nigeria must be a healthier Nigeria.
A New Nigeria is possible. -PO

Mercy is when you can't even explain how you're surviving, but you are. You don't have it all figured out, but each day, God sends help right when you need it. Hallelujah.
Farmers must be able to return to their fields securely; students must be able to learn without fear; communities must be able to rest peacefully; and investors must regain their confidence in Nigeria.
Our strategy will be intelligence-driven, technology-enhanced, proactive, and community-focused. We will fortify our security institutions, enhance operational coordination, support our courageous personnel, and tackle the underlying causes of insecurity—name, ly poverty, unemployment, and marginalisation.
HEALTHCARE
Regarding health, Nigeria is currently ranked 157th globally, placing it in the lower echelon of healthcare worldwide. Primary healthcare, the cornerstone of our medical system, remains severely underfunctioning, al with only 10% to 20% of approximately 30,000 primary healthcare centres operational.
As a result, Nigeria suffers from one of the highest infant mortality rates in the world. Furthermore, health insurance coverage in Nigeria hovers around a mere 10%, in stark contrast to countries like Indonesia, which boast over 90% coverage. This situation is regrettable.
I pledge that within four years, our health insurance coverage will more than double to over 20%.
Within these four years, we will increase our healthcare budget to a minimum of 10% of our GDP, up from the current level of below 5%. We will invest heavily in and support our healthcare institutions to ensure the massive training of our healthcare workers, including nurses and other professionals. We shall also adequately staff our medical facilities.
In four years, there will be a fully functional and properly managed primary healthcare centre in all 8,809 wards across the nation. By the conclusion of our term, Nigeria will ensure that at least 50% of its 30,000 primary healthcare centres are fully functional, properly manned, and dedicated to serving the populace.
EDUCATION
Education will remain at the forefront of our national revival, as no country can grow beyond its educational system. Nations that have transformed successfully have done so through sustained investment in human capital. Our children are not burdens; they represent our most valuable assets. We will invest heavily in schools, teachers, technology, and vocational training, ensuring that education equips our youth not only to seek employment but also to generate it. We must pivot Nigeria from a cycle of shared poverty to one of collective prosperity through knowledge, innovation, and productivity.
HUNGER AND AGRICULTURE
In 2023, when the present government took office, Nigeria ranked 109 out of 150 nations on the Global Hunger Index.
And by 2025, our ranking further plunged to 115th, placing us among the hungriest nations globally. Currently, the World Food Programme estimates that over 35 million Nigerians will face acute hunger and food insecurity this year. This is unconscionable, given our vast expanses of uncultivated land.
Rice remains the most consumed food in Nigeria. To illustrate our level of unproductivity, let us compare our capabilities with those of leading rice-producing nations. India is the largest producer of rice, yielding approximately 200 million tonnes of unmilled rice.
Bangladesh is the third largest producer, producing around 60 million tonnes of unskilled Rice, while Vietnam is the 5thproducinges about 42 million tonnes. Let us consider the land-to-population ratios:
India has a landmass of 3,287,263 square kilometres. Distributed across its population of 1.4 billion people, this equals roughly 2. 34 Square meter per person.
Bangladesh, with a landmass of around 148,460 square kilometres and a population of 170 million, has less than 1 square metres per person.
Vietnam’s landmass covers 331,000 square kilometres. Divided by a population of 102 million, it yields about 3.25 square metres per person.
ACCEPTANCE SPEECH BY MR. PETER OBI FOLLOWING HIS NOMINATION AS THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE OF THE NIGERIAN DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS(NDC) – MAY 30, 2026
Protocols,
Esteemed citizens of Nigeria,
It is with deep humility that I accept the role of presidential candidate for our party.
I express my profound gratitude to the leaders of our party. His Excellency Seriake Dickson, the National Chairman, National Secretary and the National Working Committee, NWC members and members of our relentless supporters, and the Nigerian populace who have steadfastly kept the spirit of hope alive. I commend those who have made the journey from every region of our nation to convene here in Abuja.
I wish to assert unequivocally: a New Nigeria is Possible. This conviction has united us; it must serve as our compass on the challenging road ahead and sustain us through all trials we may face. This pivotal moment transcends the individual ambitions of Peter Obi; it concerns the essence of our nation and the future of our children. It is about rekindling hope for millions who have faced adversity yet remain committed to Nigeria.
Today, our nation finds itself at a crucial juncture, enveloped in uncertainty. Families are anxious about their safety; parents are concerned for their children's futures; and talented youth increasingly question their prospects in their homeland.
Businesses are struggling, communities are suffering, and an alarming number of citizens have lost faith in the very concept of governance. Yet, I stand before you filled with optimism and strong faith in the resilience of our people, for I firmly believe that a New Nigeria is possible.
UNITY
To realise this New Nigeria, we must first mend the foundational elements essential for the success of any nation.
Nigeria cannot advance while fragmented by ethnic, religious, regional, or narrow political divides. We may communicate in different languages and practise diverse faiths, but we share a singular destiny under one flag. Our diversity should not be a source of division; rather, it is among our greatest strengths.
We should build bridges where others erect barriers, replace mistrust with confidence, division with understanding, and resentment with a collective purpose. A united Nigeria is indispensable. As Will Durant wisely pointed out, "A great civilisation is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within." We must never self-destruct. We must heal, unify, and progress together.
INSECURITY
In terms of security, the situation in Nigeria has considerably worsened. The global terrorism impact assessments ranked Nigeria as the 8th most affected nation in 2022, 6th in 2024, and 4th in 2026.
Yet, for many years, Nigeria garnered global recognition as a reliable contributor to peacekeeping, regional stabilisation, and conflict resolution. Our troops have not only displayed bravery but have also shown professionalism, discipline, resilience, and empathy in the most challenging operational contexts. Our officers and personnel have successfully commanded multiple international forthe ces, safeguarded vulnerable civilian populations, monitored ceasefires, reinstated constitutional order, and contributed to rebuilding efforts.
Nigeria became one of the leading contributors of troops from Africa to UN peacekeeping missions and earned widespread admiration for operational effectiveness and leadership in various countries, including Rwanda, Sudan, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Mali, Western Sahara, Congo, Lebanon, Cambodia, Haiti, and Kuwait. At one pointin a Nigeria, Lt. General Isaac Obiakor (rtd) even led global peacekeeping initiatives.
We must address insecurity with resolve and urgency, for no nation can thrive while its citizens live in trepidation. The primary responsibility of the government is to ensure the safeguarding of lives and property.
The trauma that Nigerians continue to endure is profound. Currently, 46 children and their teachers remain in the hands of their kidnappers, with one teacher already dead. The unimaginable plight of these individuals is a source of extreme distress for their families.
