“Desmond Elliot is so desperate that he wanted to crash the same platform that built him…. To the extent that he was calling journalists to write untrue stories about me”
This is pure madness from DOE… he overplayed his hand
Gbaja’s imprint on that community is too massive to be ignored. DOE is gone.
A lesson to all political leaders: do well for your people and let them feel your impact.
What Gbaja did in Surulere 1 & 2 is exactly what he is reaping today. The masses will surely reciprocate with their votes in the main election.
Surulere is Gbaja
Gbaja is Surulere

Speaking at the Africa CEO Forum Presidential Panel yesterday evening in Kigali, I re-emphasised that Africa must put Africa first whilst creating opportunities for intra-Africa collaboration between our countries.
Our continent cannot build scale by looking outward first. We must invest in one another, trade more with one another, build the corridors that connect our markets, ensure our innovative youthful population get the support they need, and give African businesses the confidence to expand across African borders.
Nigeria’s reforms are not only about fixing yesterday. They are about preparing our economy to lead in the Africa of tomorrow. With AfCFTA, digital trade, shared infrastructure, stronger logistics, commodities exchange, and deeper private sector partnerships, we can turn Africa’s population and resources into real continental prosperity. The global risk and financial architecture must also give Africa a fair deal that recognises our local nuances and contexts.
I thank my brother, President Paul Kagame, for his warm hospitality and for Rwanda’s continued leadership in showing what discipline, clarity and execution can do for development.
Nigeria will continue to work with Rwanda and other African partners to build a continent that produces more, trades more, connects better, and competes with greater confidence in the world.
Africa’s future will not be handed to us. We must build it, own it, and defend it together.

I arrived in Kigali this afternoon from Nairobi, where we joined other African leaders at the Africa Forward Summit co-hosted by President Ruto and President Macron to advance a new model of partnership built on trade, investment, innovation, infrastructure, and shared prosperity.
I thank my brother, President Paul Kagame @PaulKagame, for the warm reception upon my arrival in Kigali and for our productive bilateral engagement at the Urugwiro presidential village.
Nigeria and Rwanda understand what this moment requires. Africa must trade more with itself, move goods faster, connect its markets better, and give its entrepreneurs the continental scale they need to compete.
Our discussions focused on expanding bilateral trade between our two countries. We are also in the early stages of discussions with RwandAir on a practical flat rate arrangement that can help Nigerian businesses ship their goods more predictably across the continent.
As champions of the AfCFTA, Nigeria and Rwanda will continue to work together to deepen digital trade, strengthen market access, and remove the barriers that limit African enterprise.
Furthermore, Nigeria is proud to host the AfCFTA Council of Ministers and Digital Trade Forum in June. We also look forward to welcoming the continent and the world for IATF and CANEX from November 5 to 11, 2026, and again in November 2027.
From the Africa Forward Summit in Nairobi to the Africa CEO Forum @africaceoforum in Kigali, my message remains the same. Africa’s future will not be built by speeches alone. It will be built by trade, investment, innovation, and the courage to trust one another’s markets.
This is the path to shared and sustainable prosperity for our people and the continent.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR
President Tinubu is the only African leader openly talking about hard economic realities instead of recycling slogans.
Most African governments still avoid the difficult questions that Tinubu is asking
