@yabaleftonline Probably the best decision Peter made. The years passed have shown this as he has a stable/peaceful marriage and most likely a good family.
@neo_officialll Every sane person with the fear of God ,aware of this story,knows Jude is the main problem and a lasting solution can only come from Jude saying the truth and doing the right thing. Imagine threatening to kill your younger brother over money/his rights. Jude is despicable.
@Voiceofigbos Peter is damaging his family but Jude that told Peter, his own brother to 'carry his coffin come' is the one you are damaging.. I tire for this generation.
Hunger and the Insensitivity of Mr. President
I watched with deep concern the statement made by President Bola Tinubu to the Catholic Bishops who visited his office, that there has always been hunger in Nigeria, even before he was born.
While it is true that hunger has been a part of human life and has existed in our country for decades, such a statement appears insensitive to the plight of the millions of Nigerians who face worsening economic hardship today. More importantly, we must focus on the facts and the measurable outcomes of governance.
Before the present administration assumed office in 2023, an estimated 17 million Nigerians were facing acute food insecurity, primarily caused by insecurity, armed conflict, widespread banditry, and devastating floods. Today, less than three years later, that number has risen to about 35 million Nigerians. Instead of improving the situation, the crisis has worsened significantly under the current administration.
The same trend is evident in poverty. Before this government took office in 2023, Nigeria’s extreme poverty was estimated at 87 million people. Current projections suggest that this number is approaching 140 million people, making Nigeria home to the largest population of people living in extreme poverty anywhere in the world.
No one disputes that this administration inherited serious challenges. However, leadership is measured not by the challenges inherited but by the results achieved. The government must honestly acknowledge that its response has fallen far short of what the situation demanded, with millions more Nigerians pushed deeper into poverty and hunger.
The combination of persistent insecurity, poor economic management, fiscal indiscipline, wasteful public expenditure, and inadequate investment in productive sectors has compounded the suffering of ordinary Nigerians.
A responsible government must prioritise investment in education, healthcare, agriculture, security, and small businesses while pursuing policies that create jobs, expand production, and lift people out of poverty. That remains my commitment to the Nigerian people.
A New Nigeria is Possible. PO

@PeterObi@VValobi2000@OselokaHObaze@seunokin That same logic fuelled the counter-coup, pogroms, and the tragic Civil War that brought pain to every region. We must learn from history, not use it to punish the living.”

@PeterObi@VValobi2000@OselokaHObaze@seunokin Holding an entire ethnic group responsible for the actions of some soldiers over six decades ago is unjust and primitive. Northerners, Yoruba, and other groups have also produced coup plotters and military leaders. Should we disqualify them forever?

@PeterObi@VValobi2000@OselokaHObaze@seunokin 1. Reject Collective Ethnic Guilt Directly.
Answer clearly and unapologetically:
“The 1966 coup was a military mutiny carried out by soldiers, not an ‘Igbo action.’ I am a civilian. I was not born when it happened. I had no hand in it.

@oobynno@twitbislor@fkeyamo Well said. And again, airport staff aren't stupid. They can tell the difference between civilians and VIP. They know where the rules apply and where to make exceptions. With the comments i have read so far, a percentage of Nigerians don't need saving.
God has a wonderful sense of humor, and He is the Master Strategist.
Joseph’s brothers sold him into slavery to stop his dreams from coming to pass. Little did they know they were only accelerating God’s plan and pushing him closer to his testimony.
In the same way, because of this unnecessary controversy over the NDC logo, many people who had never even seen it before now know that the NDC logo is the two-finger victory sign.
What an unexpected way to introduce the NDC logo to millions of Nigerians!
So, to all the plotters, thank you for helping to teach more Nigerians that the NDC logo represents the Victory Fingers.
What was intended to diminish awareness has only increased it.
@realkenokonkwo I stopped reading at page 1. But three things are conclusive at this juncture, as a lawyer, you arent very good at law, as an actor, you are so washed up and as a politician,you havent learnt anything from other people's similar experiences.
Elon Musk flew to Russia to buy a rocket and the Russians laughed in his face and spat on his shoes.
In 2001 Musk had a simple plan. Buy a refurbished intercontinental ballistic missile from Russia, strip out the warhead, and use it to send a small greenhouse to Mars. He thought it would cost about $20 million.
He flew to Moscow with Adeo Ressi and Mike Griffin. They sat in a meeting with Russian rocket engineers and military officials. Musk explained what he wanted. The Russians looked at each other and started laughing. One of them literally spat on the ground near his feet. They thought he was a joke. A tech millionaire playing astronaut.
They eventually offered to sell him one rocket for $8 million. Musk tried to negotiate. They raised the price to $10 million per rocket out of disrespect. They wanted to humiliate him into leaving.
On the flight home from Moscow, while his friends slept, Musk opened his laptop and started building a spreadsheet. He calculated the raw material cost of building a rocket from scratch. Aluminum. Carbon fiber. Fuel. Electronics. He realized the materials cost roughly three percent of what aerospace companies charged.
He closed the laptop and said to Adeo "I think we can build this ourselves."
SpaceX was born on that flight. Not in a garage. Not in a lab. On a plane ride home from being humiliated by Russians who thought he was a fool.
Most people experience rejection and go home. Musk experienced rejection and opened a spreadsheet. The entire commercial space industry exists because some Russian engineers decided to be disrespectful to a 30 year old with a laptop.
@instablog9ja First of all, my wife won't wake up by 5.30am to sweep any compound or even sweep at all at anytime. Secondly, a lot of these practices/beliefs were maybe relevant in their time for obvious reasons but do not hold such relevance in this day and age.
