“Any Small Thing And They Will Be Screaming “Luxury” In Lagos. But Look At This Crocodile At The Almighty Eko Hotels In Lagos. Just Look At How Dirty And Smelly The Environment Is Looking. Yet Some Of The Rooms Here Are Over ₦1 Million. After Booking a Room Of ₦1 Million Here At Eko Hotels, See Your View. Everything In Lagos Is Tr@sh. From Lekki, Ikoyi, Banana Island, They’re All Tr@sh. This Is a City That Also Has a Pandemic Of Agberos. When You Park Your Car Or Drive, They Will Demand For Payment Or They Will Vandalise Or Stone Your Car. So What’s Appealing About Lagos?.”
Council of Igbo People in America visited Igbo Landing on St. Simons Island, Georgia, the river where our ancestors chose freedom over slavery.
They said a prayer for every Igbo person. ❤️
Yagazie! Iseeee!!!!!
I think every student who graduates with a First Class from any Nigerian university should have 100% of their school fees refunded, plus a ₦1 million excellence bonus.
I came across a similar incentive model in the Netherlands, and it made me think.
Imagine the message it would send: Hard work pays. Excellence is rewarded.
Instead of only celebrating academic success with certificates, why not attach real value to it?
It could fundamentally change how many students approach their education.
When Nigeria actually begins to fight Corruption the first agency to be under intense Investigation is the EFCC @officialEFCC
A Cesspool of CORRUPTION ❗️
"In 2027, Nigerians will decide whether the country belongs to politicians or to all of us. Those supporting President Tinubu are busy selling the future of our children for money and personal gain" - Prophet Odumeje
Why e be say for Nigeria, once person ask for accountability, dem go quickly tag am as rebel? If person ask why insecurity still dey increase, dem go say you dey fight government.

"We should refuse to agree that this is Nigeria, where:
-Nothing works
-Certificates are forged and it's ok
-Elections are rigged and you're told to Go-To-Court
These things have consequences"
-John Cardinal Onaiyekan of the Catholic Church
He's been consistently consistent!
“My son is almost 30 and he doesn’t own a car. He has to buy his own. I am the elected governor, not him. I cannot spend state resources to get him a car.”

The increasing use of federal institutions to disrupt governance in opposition states in Nigeria is condemnable. As I said in my last newsletter, no government is above scrutiny but when institutions like the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) are utilised to witch hunt specific states or public office holders, it indicates that their investigations are selective and erodes public trust in these institutions.
The “freezing” of an official state government account without due legal process goes beyond the powers vested in the EFCC by the laws of our land. And the timing of the action suggests that this is just another attempt by the federal government to unduly influence the forthcoming governorship election in Osun State.
Federal institutions must remain faithful to their constitutional mandate by acting with fairness, professionalism and political neutrality at all times. We therefore call on all Nigerians, civil society organisations and the international community to remain vigilant. Democracy cannot thrive where our institutions are perceived as instruments of political intimidation. Protecting the independence and credibility of our institutions is essential to preserving public trust and safeguarding Nigeria's democracy. The rule of law must prevail over the rule of politics.
Pro-Tinubu supporters wanted to intimidate Cardinal John Onaiyekan and cow him into silence until they discovered who he truly is.
They thought it was just another bishop from Ogbomoso or Nnewi who had randomly decided to tell President Tinubu the truth.
They had no idea they were dealing with a man whose voice carries weight far beyond Nigeria.
How do you even attempt to intimidate a man who became a priest at just 25 and a bishop at only 38?
One amongst the 5th Cardinals Nigeria has ever had?
Lol.
By the time they realized they were confronting an internationally respected cleric, it was already too late.
The attacks backfired big time because the message had already reached far beyond the audience they were trying to control.

Students from the South East are very intelligent. I learned that the hard way myself.
I still remember when my family transferred me from my school in Port Harcourt to a boarding school in Anambra State.
I got there and started looking down on the other students. In my little mind, I believed my IQ was higher than theirs because I felt I came from the city, while they lived in the village. That mindset made me very overconfident.
Because of that, I didn’t put in as much effort as I should have.
Back in my school in Port Harcourt, I usually finished around third position in my class, so I was sure I would do well again.
Then the end-of-term results came out.
I checked my report sheet and saw 31st out of 46 students. My eyes first blur! 🤣
I was like, “Huh?!”
I got home and received the scolding of my life.
The next term, I put in much more effort and moved up to 13th position. 😭
I never saw 3rd position again until I graduated from that school.
I can boldly say that, from my experience, students from the South East are exceptionally intelligent and hardworking. Igbo people have one of the fastest IQs in the world.
In summary: Excellence can be found anywhere!
