I was discussing it with a friend from the South South. He told me that Amaechi nomination as the ADC VP candidate has completely ended the NDC chances across the region.

I asked him; Some people are saying he no longer has a political structure.

He replied, Anyone telling you Amaechi cannot win the South South and secure 25% in some parts of the South East is not living in the region.

"Amaechi is currently the main topic of political discussion across the region."

Noble Igwe, the man with the MANGO-SHAPED head. I just saw this now.

Well, let me start by saying that I am not the one selling Coca-Cola. And I am not Mumzee, whom people are always contributing money to. We all know Mumzee's political affiliation and those whose account numbers are scattered all over X.

But what I don't understand is how your brain is so shallow that you think selling Coca-Cola is something you can use to troll people on social media. In the last Anambra governorship election, your fathers and mothers were seen trading their future for ordinary Gala and Malt. So, please, how many Gala and Malt can a crate of Coca-Cola buy? At least three Gala and three Malt. That means with every crate of Coca-Cola in her shop, she's better off than every three people from your tribe. And mind you, that Coca-Cola seller is now worth millions of naira.

There is also a video circulating where a lawmaker was giving your people ₦500 as empowerment.

One of your governors was giving newly delivered mothers ₦500 to cook okra soup after childbirth.

One of your lawmakers was sharing cassava stems as empowerment.

Another was even sharing buckets as empowerment.

Why do you think they were doing that? Because many of your people are very poor.

I have been to your region three times, and I can say boldly that 95% of your people are very poor. Only 5% are rich, and out of that 5%, 2% are rich through blood money, 2% through drugs, counterfeit products, and fake drinks. Only 1% has legitimate and clean wealth. Yet, online, you are the richest. Lol.

Like I said, only fools are poor yet pretend to be rich. That's arrogance.

Many of you are the problems of this country. Is Yoruba not part of the ethnic groups in Nigeria? What crime is committed if a fabric belonging to any of the ethnic groups is adopted.
God will help this country!

The purpose of a reform is to gain national acceptance not create another scandal, Adire is a Yoruba attire, you can't use that as a national attire, we have 256 ethnic groups in Nigeria, if you are using Adire, you must also use other attire for other ethnic groups.

Stop what exactly? Abi ori nta e ni? The first lady was not referring to the son who was trained by Iya alakara and can now fend for himself. She was referring to all the Iya alakara, Iya oni kulikuli etc who need the supports to train their children.
If you have succeed in lying to yourself that every one you know is a billionaire, allow people who need the supports to benefit from it.

Mr Dipo, There's a reason every Akara sellers women work hard to train their kids with good education. There's a reason why she comes out everyday inside rain, inside sun.
Because she doesn't want her kids to end up like her.
Stop this nonsense bro, please stop...

I have today signed the NIMC Act 2026 into law.

For nearly twenty years, Nigeria’s identity system operated under a law written for a different era. That era is over.

This new Act gives our nation a modern, secure and digital identity framework fit for the Nigeria we are building, a Nigeria on the path to becoming a one-trillion-dollar economy.

[Gbenga Samuel-Wemimo @GbengaWemimo]

Some years ago, I was seriously embarrassed in Dubai when all their POS machines refused to honour payment from my Nigerian Bank Card, even though at the time I had the GoldCard, which was issued to me by Access Bank.
I also had my ATM cards, which I had used on previous trips in other countries.
A lady bailed me out at the Thai restaurant in Dubai that day, as I had no other form of payment whatsoever.
I came on X that same day and asked if there is a Nigerian food vendor in Dubai who could supply me with food and get paid in Naira.
That was how someone reached out to me in my DM, and that was how I was able to survive in Dubai for my one-week trip.
When I got back home, I was told that only Providus Bank Dollar and GBP cards were working abroad at the time.
I had no option but to sign up with Providus.
A few months later, I lodged into the Courtyard by Sheraton Hotel in Heathrow and my Providus bank card (Naira card was rejected too)
Again, the embarrassment was phenomenal.
A sister in London became my saving grace. I depended on her to use her bank cards for my hotel booking, train ticket, Uber, food and other essentials.
She would pay and send me the bill at the end of my trip, and I would then transfer the funds to her in Naira or GBP.
I tried hard to get a bank account in the UK, the USA and Europe.
I spoke with a bank in Amsterdam, spoke with a bank manager directly, and I was told that as long as I don't have a residence address in the UK, I cannot get a bank account.
I remember another friend who gave me her Bank card and PIN to use, but I had to politely decline because I didn't want to be indebted in that sense to this particular person.
Because travelling is a prerequisite of my work, it was extremely frustrating not to be able to do so with ease.
I would watch other people use their phones to process payment in foreign countries, but Apple Pay refused to recognise my Nigerian bank cards.
Eventually, I was introduced to some banking apps like WISE, GraBify, Titan, Revolut, Chipper, Timon and many more.
These were foreign solutions introduced to the Nigerian Market because the financial system of the country was not rated as acceptable by global financial institutions.
My sister in Canada could open a PayPal account on my behalf using her Canadian address, but I couldn't transact anything financial on the account because I have a Nigerian passport.
I came to Ghana for the Flight two years ago with @YoungFemo_, and I had to change Naira to Cedis at the airport because my Naira bank card wouldn't work.
I missed out on a foreign trip to Dubai that same year because Nigeria was blacklisted by airlines due to the country's inability to remit funds to them in USD.
For that trip, I went as far as Cotonou to catch a flight to Dubai, but I was singled out of the passenger list as we were about to board because I had a Nigerian passport on me.
My mother was travelling to Nigeria from the USA, and she had to stay at a hotel in Miami. I booked the hotel on my Marriott Bonvoy App, but my Naira card was rejected, and I had to call another sister in the UK to bail me out so that my mother would be able to check into the hotel in Miami
I believe in Nigeria
I refused to leave Nigeria or have any property outside of Nigeria
I refused to raise my children outside of Nigeria
My destiny in Christ was as clear to me as day
I know what was written about me and my life in the volume of the works.
Though it was frustrating and people were blaming the governments of the day at the time on every side, I held on and believed that the glory of Nigeria would be restored
I refused to shop abroad because I believe it is better to add my two cents to the local economy
Since last year, I noticed that my Nigerian bank cards have begun to work again in foreign countries.
I was in Dubai, Aberdeen, Qatar, London, Rome, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Finland, Paris, Amsterdam and many other countries, and my Naira card worked seamlessly.
I came into Ghana yesterday, and I have transacted my business with my Nigerian bank cards on their local POS, and it worked!
Someone somewhere has done something to make it work.
Today, I am saying thank you to that "someone".
Whosoever you are, God bless you.
If you are more than one person, I pray for you that your policies and visions will set Nigeria up in such a way that squanderers who could come into power and set the country backwards will be unable to do so.
It felt very good to be able to use my Naira card again, especially when I got to Marriott, and they told me their POS can only accept physical ATM cards.
My heart skipped a beat because I had planned to rely on my Grabify app.

May God continue to bless Nigeria.

You leaving Islam has not reduced the stock of the faith or affected anything. How many mosques have been pulled down because you left? Has Jumat stopped in your area because you left? Lol 😂
See? People are joining Islam in droves, while people leave. Islam is not about crowd; it’s about piety, Taqwa, and living life in accordance with the commandment of the Creator.

[O'tega Ogra @otegaogra]

Here we go again with half-quotes and half-truths from @PeterObi

A response to Mr Peter Obi’s manufactured resignation demand

~ by O’tega Ogra

Peter Gregory Obi has once again demonstrated his most consistent talent: the selective editing of public records to manufacture grievances he can then ‘nobly’ respond to. Mr Obi wants President Tinubu to resign, and his evidence is a quote he had to edit to support his ‘half-truth’ argument.

Here is what Mr Obi told Nigerians the President said: that he promised improved electricity and challenged the electorate not to vote for him if he failed.

Here is what the President actually said:

“Whichever way, by all means necessary, you must have electricity, and you will not pay for estimated bills anymore. A promise made will be a promise kept. If I don’t keep the promise and come back for a second term, unless I give you adequate reasons why I couldn’t deliver.”

Read that again. “Unless I give you adequate reasons why I couldn’t deliver.” Mr Obi removed that clause, and he had to, because including it would have collapsed his entire argument. President @officialABAT submitted himself to the judgment of the electorate by saying, judge me on the full picture, and if I fall short, vote accordingly. That is a conditional statement. It places the accountability where it belongs, with the electorate, at the ballot box, in 2027. Mr Obi however took that statement and presented half of it as an unconditional admission of failure that should trigger a resignation. That is not criticism, but fabrication.

It is now clear that Mr Obi does not want Nigerians to vote. His poor advice is to skip the vote entirely and demand a resignation. One man is trusting the electorate. The other is trying to bypass them. This should not surprise anyone who has followed Mr Obi’s political career, because the ballot box has never really been his preferred route to power.

•In 2003, Peter Gregory Obi ran for governor of Anambra State, lost, and spent three years in court before the Court of Appeal handed him the seat.

•Seven months later, he was impeached. He returned to court, and the impeachment was overturned.

•In 2007, INEC conducted a fresh election. Andy Uba won. Mr Obi handed over, returned to court, and the Supreme Court nullified that election and reinstated him.

•In 2010, he won the Anambra governorship on election day, defeating Charles Soludo. This is the only election Peter Gregory Obi has won at the ballot box in over two decades of political life.

•In 2019, he was selected as Atiku Abubakar’s running mate. They lost. In 2022, he crossed to the Labour Party, where Patrick Utomi surrendered the presidential ticket for him. He lost again.

•He has since moved to ADC and, more recently, to NDC, where he has been selected again as a presidential candidate with Kwankwaso as his running mate. No primary contested.

So when he writes that the President should resign rather than face the electorate, it is not a mystery. Mr Obi does not know what it takes to get on a ticket and win without circumventing the process. What he wants, as always, is a shortcut, and this resignation call is his latest attempt to bypass the democratic process.

Funny enough, Mr Obi cites Keir Starmer as his model, comparing a Prime Minister answerable to the House of Commons in a UK parliamentary system with a President who holds a direct mandate from the Nigerian electorate in a presidential system. Mr Obi contested under this very system three years ago. He knows the difference. Did he forget how it works, or does the Constitution only apply when the results go his way? He does not care when the difference is inconvenient.

Now to the substance, since Mr Obi raised electricity…
