PRESIDENT TINUBU GOES ON HOLIDAY AGAIN
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has once again left Nigeria for another holiday, this time beginning a three-week vacation in Europe.
Nigeria is in deep crisis. Nigerians can barely afford food and transportation. Insecurity is ravaging communities, and thousands of children are unable to access education because of insecurity.
Just days ago, about 600 Nigerians, predominantly women, children, and the elderly, were reportedly abducted during Juma’at prayers in Niger State.
Yet, at this critical moment, the President has left the country for another holiday.
According to reports, government expenditure on presidential trips and related travel expenses between June 2023 and April 2026 amounted to about ₦37.64 billion, with the President spending approximately 261 days outside Nigeria.
Meanwhile, only ₦36 million was reportedly released to the Federal Ministry of Health in 2025, despite a capital allocation of ₦218 billion, in a country of over 230 million people.
This is the calamity befalling our country today.
A government that can spend tens of billions on presidential travel while critical sectors remain starved of funds, and Nigerians are asked to endure worsening hardship, must not be allowed to continue.
Leadership is about priorities.
When citizens cannot feed their families, move safely, access healthcare, send their children to school, or sleep peacefully in their homes, the President should be more concerned about fixing the country than repeatedly leaving it.
I look forward to a Nigeria where our President can vacation in Kano, Katsina, Sokoto, Cross River State, Bauchi, Ebonyi, and many other destinations across our country.
The President of Nigeria should be the chief marketer of Nigeria as a tourism destination, as other comparable countries do.
Imagine the economic possibilities if our leaders, celebrities, business communities, and citizens travelled within Nigeria more frequently.
Tourism creates jobs. It supports hospitality, transportation, agriculture, entertainment, crafts, and small businesses. It brings investment and foreign exchange and allows communities to benefit directly from their natural and cultural assets.
We cannot continue to export our wealth and import our pleasures while our own enormous potential remains neglected.
We deserve leadership that puts Nigeria first; leadership that cares and plans for a better Nigeria. That is the kind of leadership that the partnership between H.E. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and me will bring.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Any individual supporting, defending, or shielding a drug dealer is equally guilty of the same crime

Dear Alex Oniya @winexviv in whatever you do please do not pander to Tinubu's FG.
Don't go visit them when you arrive.
Don't take any support from them.
If you want sponsorship throw it open and well meaning Nigerians will gladly support going forward.
TINUBU DESTROYS GOOD CHARACTERS
BURNING THE FLAG- JUST LEAVE: I didn’t like Biden but I didn’t burn the flag.
I didn’t like Obama but I didn’t burn the flag.
Because the American flag is bigger than any president.
Bigger than any party.
Bigger than your anger, your politics, or your moment of outrage.
That flag represents sacrifice on a scale you clearly don’t understand — folded flags handed to parents, spouses, and children who never got their loved ones back. It represents the reason you’re allowed to stand there yelling instead of being silenced.
Burning it isn’t protest.
It’s disrespect.
You’re not standing up to power.
You’re tearing down the symbol of the country that protects your right to speak at all.
If America is so evil, so horrible, so irredeemable that you feel justified setting its flag on fire, then stop pretending you’re trying to “fix” it.
This is bigger than you.
You don’t get to enjoy every freedom this country offers while openly destroying the symbol that makes those freedoms possible.
Criticize leaders.
Challenge policies.
Vote. Protest. Speak freely.
But if your response to disagreement is burning the American flag, then be honest about what you really feel.
You can leave.
Because America is bigger than your rage
and that flag will outlast it.
