I’ve fallen so deeply in love with food that all I want to eat it all, cook it, bake it, then bake some more. Travel to eat food. Just let me exist around food. 😍

Food will never betray me, and I’ll never betray food. 🤍🍽️

Whenever I catch myself not reading things completely, I remember anti-intellectualism is on the rise, literacy is in decline, and I don’t want to be a VICTIM!

A man who lives in Taraba State was kidnapped.

The kidnappers demanded ₦50 million as ransom. After his family sold his properties and car, they were only able to raise ₦30 million.

They pleaded with the kidnappers, who later agreed to accept the ₦30 million. They instructed that the money should be delivered to a local government area called Karim Lamido. They also demanded that only one person should bring the money, warning that any slight mistake would cost the man his life.

When it was time to take the money, every family member said they could not afford to take such a risk.

The man's son was willing to take the money, but he was still a small boy and not yet 20 years old.

After a few days without hearing from the family, the kidnappers threatened to kill the man.

His mechanic, who had recently worked on his car and lived in the same area, heard about the situation. He visited the family and was informed about what was happening.

The mechanic accepted to deliver the ransom to the kidnappers.

Early the next morning, he left for Karim Lamido. When he got there, no commercial motorcycle rider was willing to take him to the location described by the kidnappers, so he had to trek for almost two hours.

Throughout the journey, the kidnappers stayed on the phone, directing him at every turn. The route was mainly cattle paths rather than roads people normally used.

When he reached the second forest, he saw two men waiting on a motorcycle. They called him over and told him to follow them.

According to him, one of the men was carrying an AK-47 rifle. He sat between them on the motorcycle, and at that moment, he said his final prayer.

The journey took another two hours before they arrived at another location, where four more men were waiting. They confirmed the money.

He did not see the kidnapped man there, but the kidnappers assured him that the man was alive and would be released immediately after the money was confirmed.

After confirming the ransom, the kidnappers released the victim in Gombe State. In fact, they put him inside a vehicle heading towards Taraba State, gave him his phone back, and allowed him to call his family to confirm that he had been released.

The kidnappers then instructed him to turn around and never look back. They gave him directions, and in less than ten minutes he was already back in Karim Lamido town.

It turned out that the kidnappers had deliberately given the mechanic a long and stressful route while bringing the money in order to confuse him. However, they later showed him the shortest route back to town, which took less than ten minutes.

The most remarkable part of the story was that the mechanic's wife was heavily pregnant and almost due to give birth during that period. Despite the risk, he chose to help a customer who had always brought his vehicles to his workshop.

Bandits entered Bayelsa to kidnap

Niger Delta boys round them up like poultry chickens.

Give them phones to call their families for ransom.

They are demanding 50million each for the 6 of them.

Aura for aura.

At 2.14% of GDP, Nigeria sits below the UNESCO floor for public education, says Athena Chancellor Chidoka, at the 70th Anniversary Gala of the Ekulu Primary School Alumni Association (EPSAA) in Enugu on Friday, 30 May 2026.

[TERRORIST SURVIVOR 💪🏽 @GbolahanOlanyi0]

As a survivor of kidnapping and banditry, I can tell you that these criminals believe that no matter how much they take from you, you will eventually work and earn it back after your release.

Let me use myself as an example. After my family paid the ₦15 million ransom they demanded, along with other items worth over ₦600,000, they still weren't satisfied. They continued demanding more money and eventually asked for ₦55 million. They even told my mother to sell her house and car to raise the money.

Because my family rented a vehicle to deliver the ransom and other requested items, the kidnappers assumed we owned the car and were wealthy. They kept insisting that we sell all our properties and hand over the proceeds to them.

Omo, it was a terrible ordeal. The fear, pressure, and emotional torture were overwhelming. Watching my family struggle to meet their endless demands was heartbreaking.

One painful reality is that they often target ordinary and struggling people like us because we are easier to capture than the elites, who usually have better security and protection.

This is why we cannot continue to stay silent. Kidnapping and banditry have destroyed countless lives, families, and dreams across Nigeria. We need to raise our voices, stand together as a nation, and demand urgent action against insecurity.

Today it may be someone else's family. Tomorrow it could be yours. Enough is enough. 💔����🇬🙏🏽

As a Nigerian, I’m honestly starting to feel numb to bad news because it’s beginning to feel so normal… like it’s just “thank God it’s not me today,” and hoping it won’t be tomorrow. That’s not how anyone should have to live.

We deserve a country that feels peaceful and safe for all of us. 🇳🇬🕊️

[Osita Chidoka @osita_chidoka]

I am an incurable optimist. In every experience, I look for the silver lining.
After my disappointing experience with @buypowerng, something interesting happened.

Tayo @oviosu of Paga responded to my post. We have never met.

Under his comment, I asked a simple question: what are you offering?
His reply: “Polite customer service and no stress.”

I found that simple, confident and engaging. I took the bait.

This evening, I downloaded the Paga app and got more than I expected - a US bank account. That alone solved a real problem for me.

There is a lesson here. When you combine execution with awareness, you build a company and a responsive brand.

And when a CEO pays attention, opportunity follows and tone is set throughout the company.

Paga gained a customer today, not because they advertised, but because Tayo showed up and was responsive.

As I often say, it is not just business, it is personal.

I have always believed in staying grounded. Even in public office, I handled many routine tasks myself, buying tickets, paying bills, engaging directly.

Why? Because reality is best understood firsthand. And like every muscle, awareness weakens when it is not used.

When small things are done well, big things become easier.

In the end, service is strategy and attention is leadership.
