Nigeria must never normalise mass abductions. When evil becomes routine, society gradually loses its moral sensitivity. We must resist that decline with courage, truth, accountability, and collective pressure for reform.
The presidency should be visibly present in this crisis.

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

My thoughts & prayers are with the families of the children & teachers abducted in Oyo.
10 days+, toddlers as young as 2 years old remain in captivity.
No parent should endure this uncertainty.
No child deserves this trauma.
This is not a security failure; it's a national tragedy

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

Enough is enough.
Statements are not a strategy.
Sympathy is not security.
This is the time for decisive federal action.
Rescue these children.
Return these teachers.
Restore confidence in the system.
Every passing day deepens the wound in families, communities, and the nation.

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

Yes, I believe Nigeria has the manpower, intelligence architecture, & security capacity to significantly reduce these atrocities. What has weakened enforcement is corruption, poor coordination, politics & the economy that insecurity has created around ransom and criminal networks

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

Nigeria did not lack manpower or intelligence capacity.
No, Nigeria is not resource-poor.
What Nigeria has is a kidnapping economy, where ransom is paid, perpetrators walk free, and impunity compounds.
Greed + corruption + weak political will = the oxygen that terrorism breathes.

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

The growing boldness of kidnappers reflects something deeper: they no longer fear the Nigerian state. They abduct schoolchildren in large numbers because they believe the system is weak, compromised & ultimately negotiable through ransom.
See what corruption did to Africa's giant

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

While innocent children remain in forests with armed abductors, many politicians are focused on political permutations, defections, & elections.
Governance must return to its first duty: the protection of human life.
The Federal Government should act with urgency & precision.

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

A Maths teacher, Michael Oyedokun, has reportedly been beheaded.
A man who went to school to teach children. Beheaded. While Nigerian politicians were busy with the primary election drama.
46 people abducted (mostly children, 2 to 16 years).
This should be a national emergency.

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

No child should experience this level of trauma.
No parent should sleep without knowing whether their child is alive.
The psychological damage alone may take years to heal.
A nation that cannot protect its children is standing on dangerous ground
This is major humanitarian crisis

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

True, the Gospel of Christ is primarily redemptive, not transactional.

But, rejecting excesses should not lead us to deny biblical principles of provision, diligence, & stewardship. Blessing is biblical. Abundance is scriptural.

Again, prosperity is a product, not the prototype

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

Yes, there is no separate 'prosperity gospel'. But the scripture does not deny prosperity; it defines & orders it. Prosperity in the Kingdom is multidimensional & 'material' is part of the possible outcome of spiritual prosperity (Matthew 6:33; 3 John 1:2). Truth requires balance

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

The Gospel is singular, Christ crucified, risen and Lord (1 Corinthians 15:1-4).
The Gospel of Christ is the Euangelion: good news of redemption, reconciliation, and resurrection.
Scripturally, Jesus' central mandate is 'Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.-Matthew 4:17'

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

@Soulmedika Please, what's his bank account detail?

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

Sustained experience of God is not emotional volatility; it is cultivated alignment (John 15-abiding).
Abiding is daily obedience, disciplined thought, ordered priorities, & conscious dependence.
When obeying God becomes habitual, HIS presence becomes experiential, not accidental

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

The real question is not whether God is faithful, but whether our daily structure allows us to host HIS power consistently.

God is faithful!

Faithfulness is HIS nature.

God help me, order my inner architecture, thoughts, habits, & values towards YOU in the name of Jesus Christ

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

Yes, most Nigerian elected politicians will not voluntarily support reforms that strengthen electoral integrity. No one easily signs off on their own political extinction. But to every active voice & everyone who has protested in one way or another, you are not wasting your time.

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

Some Nigerian pastors likely understood that it would be difficult to publicly justify a "Nigerian pastor" drawing tattoos at 50, yet proximity created hesitation. Sadly, some of them redirected the conversation, adjusting the narrative rather than confronting the issue directly.

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

Olúwa kúu sùúrù.

We know a pastor does not live privately; he carries symbolic authority. In Nigeria, where tattoos are still widely associated with deviance, criminality, or rebellion, it's expected that pastors should recognise the cultural weight of their actions.

It is well

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

Electoral integrity determines governance quality but expecting the many current Nigerian elected officials to support mandatory electronic transmission of election results is like expecting a condemned criminal to sign their own death warrant.
The reform will not come by default

[ATOYEBI Samuel @Atoyebi_Samuel]

Truth is not selective.
If an act is "right" only because "my pastor" or "my friend/family" did it, that is not conviction, it is cognitive dissonance.
Christianity stands on truth, not personalities. We must separate spiritual maturity from emotional attachment.
Jesus is Lord!!!
