This 'glitch' excuse by our examination bodies should be tolerated further.
Our Bright minds are been toyed with without repercussions.
WAEC Nigeria should bow their head in shame.
Last year, it was JAMB and WAEC facing severe public criticism over technical glitches
This year, it's WAEC again with disastrous glitch in the recently released WAEC results especially for those that were forced into the new CBT format
We can't continue playing 'trial and error' with the future of these Champs in the name of digital upgrade
@ceepreshioux@ThaBoyYom Please why do men get married, since all these can be outsourced.
Is it not the same provision that would be used to outsource all these?
Since we've limited provision to money, men and women make money.
The question is, who needs the other's help more?
@IkejaElectric please what's the issue with our light at Orioke Ejigbo, for over 4 days we have not had power supply and between 5am today to this very minute, it's been over 10 flashes of 2minutes each.
People's appliances are getting spoilt as a result..
@NERCNG
@oveekoveek@nature_nutured@AloyEjimakor Didn't you hear when the man said 'is it because you make more money than me'?
The man's ego is the only problem here, otherwise he can't end to the child until the wife comes back fro them meeting.
@AnaeleOkea48778@AloyEjimakor You think the man took her from her 'father's houe' to his house? 😂😂😂😂. When you men say regumr her to her father's house, it really sound funny.
@nwanyi_ocha@PeterPsquare I can't like this enough nor thank you enough for this clear explanation. Sometimes I feel am not making enough effort with my parenting as my kids can't speak Igbo fluently.
@Don4Boat@kenkenlewu This child is hers and theres nothing wrong with posting his picture, with this mindset, you also approve discriminating special needs kids.
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.
Two ladies went to visit Mr David Umahi for God knows what. Many says it’s for mekwa.
One of the ladies died naked and Umahi didn’t tell the police immediately, instead an ambulance was brought in to carry the dead body out.
He kept it secret.
It took Sahara Reporters to blow the horny cover open and when Umahi responded, he said they are medical physiotherapists deployed to SERVICE HIM SPECIFICALLY. What kind of service that’s special to him when he has no medical needs that demands physio?
The Umahi Teaching Hospital that he claimed deployed them to him has no business doing such. Umahi has lots of questions to answer.
If a girl dies in the house of a poor man, he will be in police custody by now. Umahi should be in one. That’s the only debate he should be having right now and not with Peter Obi.
Who killed the girl?
Who sucked her breasts when it was opened?
Who stripped her naked?
Do doctors now carry out physio work naked?
Umahi is a culprit
The second that went for the adventurous journey must not be killed and not also be bribed, as she’s the only eye witness alive. We know that what dollars cannot do in this kind of case does not exist.
When Tracy accused him of being a horny goat, he denied it even though no Nigerian believed him. Two months after, one proof seems to be coming out. This cannot be swept under the carpet.
Umahi must not go scot free in this.
@IkejaElectric please what's the issue with our light at Orioke Ejigbo. For over one week now, we have not had power supply and no information was passed as to why.
Every developed nation first became an education superpower before becoming an economic superpower.
Education is not another sector.
Education is the operating system of a nation.
Everything else runs on it.
Grand Corruption: Nigeria’s Greatest Threat.
The recent report from the IMF consultation further raises concerns about the scale of grand corruption under the Tinubu government. The IMF now reveals that about N8.83 trillion in expenditure undertaken in 2025 is not reflected in the budget. This expenditure is not budgeted and is therefore not under legislative oversight or administrative scrutiny. This is horrible.
N8.83 trillion is as follows:
1.About 2% of our GDP.
2.Over 35% of Nigeria’s 2025 N23.96 trillion capital project budget. In fact, the amount is more than the actual released capital funding for 2025.
https://t.co/Hta3LViCB8 is more than the entire combined budget for education (N3.52 trillion) and health (N2.38 trillion).
If such an amount is properly used and accounted for, it could transform Nigeria’s public health and education sectors. It could create hundreds of cottage industries that can provide jobs for thousands of graduates and build a solid foundation for economic development. But we cannot account for it. This is not an isolated incident.
This is a pattern of grand corruption that has become part of this administration.
We have a lot to worry about regarding the state of corruption under President Tinubu. The sort of corruption that is ingrained in total disregard of elementary rules of public finance management poses a grave danger to national security and the stability of the Nigerian state. The capture of the Nigerian state and the plunder of its resources are actions that undermine the basis of state stability and deepen poverty and state failure.
This recent revelation proves that the APC government is grossly corrupt, incompetent, and insensitive. With the growing poverty and the urgent need for significant upgrades to social and physical infrastructure, a responsible and responsive government would ensure that N8.83 trillion is prudently utilised to address these gaps. But not the Tinubu administration.
A few days ago, I called on President Tinubu to resign from office for incompetence, lack of capacity, lack of compassion, and failure to improve on his campaign promises. Some people thought perhaps the call was excessive. But with the daily revelations of pervasive corruption in this administration and its total lack of commitment to the welfare and security of Nigerian citizens, the only reasonable action is for President Tinubu to resign from office. The collapse of elementary forms of due process under Tinubu and the increased evidence of rampant looting of Nigerian public finances reinforce the need for greater accountability. It is now time for Nigerian citizens to rise within the law and hold this administration to account.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
