"No President in this country, has moved Nigeria close to fiscal federalism as President Tinubu. Unfortunately, no seems to be taking about this great achievement." โ Prof. Ken Ife, Development Economist
BREAKING: Elon Musk just became the first trillionaire in world history.
Forbes estimates that Musk is now worth $1.1 trillion as of just before noon eastern Friday, up from $982 billion on Thursday, when SpaceX priced its IPO at $135 share.
I have met a lot of people that voted Peter Obi the last time and will be voting PBAT next year.
I have also met a lot of people that voted Peter Obi last time but will sit out this election because Peter Obi hasnโt been as inspiring as he was in 2023 and they do not consider the alternatives as better.
I havenโt met a single PBAT supporter that is now supporting Peter Obi or any other candidate( this is my reality)
I believe this administration hasnโt lived up to certain hype but I cannot deny that itโs been reform minded. Helping correct structural issues that have plagued this country far too long.
For example, the recent passage of the state policing bill is by no means a mean feat. That this administration makes it look easy or donโt blow their trumpet so loudly does not diminish the huge significance of the bill and the tireless work that they put into it.
The implementation of the Nigeria Payments System Vision 2028 ( championed by CBN) is another policy that has gone under the radar(I believe we should all read about the policy) . This is one policy that will revolutionize our financial system for good. One that will birth several financial innovation and products. There is no eradication of poverty without financial inclusion and it appears CBN is on an articulated agenda towards a sustainable path.
For some of us, there are enough reasons to stick around this current administration. The alternatives arenโt as inspiring and simply do not have what it takes to out perform this current administration.
โThereโs a deliberate political intent in the sudden rise in the number of k!dnapp!ngs, somebody wants to make the nation ungovernable for Tinubu so that itโll look like Tinubu is incompetent which is unfairโ

What June 12 Should Mean to Us Nigerians
Today, we observe a day that should mean a great deal to us as a people who cherish democratic principles. Every year on June 12, the conversation inevitably turns to a critical assessment of the state of our nation. It serves as an annual benchmark for asking important questions: Are our elections today as transparent as they were in 1993? Is the social contract being honoured? Are the institutions of governance truly serving the people?
Ultimately, June 12 is a powerful blend of reflection and aspiration. It honours a fractured past while serving as a constant and foundational reminder of the immense power inherent in the collective democratic will of the Nigerian people.
For us in Nigeria, June 12 is not merely a date on the calendar; it is the emotional and structural bedrock of our modern democratic identity. Officially recognised as Democracy Day, June 12 carries deep historical, political, and social significance, representing both a monumental tragedy and the ultimate triumph of the collective will of the people.
To understand what June 12 means to Nigeria, one must examine its history, its evolution, and its enduring symbolism.
A new era of true democracy is POssible. -PO
Lol, Peter Obi still doesn't know that the executive is not the National Assembly....He is just saying things that are disjointed. Are you going to populate the legislative arm with opposition that didn't win election, what's the meaning of equal representative?๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
It is past time for legislatures to modernize sentencing laws so they reflect the persistent and evolving dangers of terrorism today rather than outdated assumptions about rehabilitation or proportionality.
Terrorism masterminds bear direct responsibility for mass murder, widespread fear, and societal trauma. A 25-year sentence is grossly inadequate for such crimes. They should face permanent incarceration.
Sam Amadi to South Easterners: Dear fellow Igbo tribe, it is your right to become Lagos Governor, don't let anyone bully you....
Me: Dear @SamAmadi, do you agree that an Igbo man from Ebonyi has every right to become a Governor in Enugu, Imo or Anambra?
Sam Amadi will respond like this๐๐
โI have three sisters. When I tell guys to focus on their lives, they think Iโm joking. One of my sisters can call five different guys in a day, and all of them believe theyโre her boyfriend. To her, relationships is like ยฅ&h00. Once she finds a new talking stage, thatโs a new client. The funny part is that each of those guys thinks heโs the only one sheโs dating. One of them even sends her a percentage of his salary every month.โ
