[Gia Macool @GiaMMacool]

Your husband is the only person who ever loved you purely by choice.

Your family was already written into your story.

Parents loved you because you were theirs.

Siblings stayed because you shared blood.

Even your child is there because you’re the mother.

But your husband walked in as a complete stranger.

No obligation.
No duty.
No shared past.

He could have built a life with anyone else.

Yet he chose you.

Chose to grow old with you.

Chose to call you home.

That kind of love is never automatic.

It is a daily, deliberate decision to stay, especially when it’s hard.

So never forget to thank the man who still chooses you every single day.

Owning Up to Leadership Failures and Political Responsibility

This morning, I listened to the British Prime Minister’s speech announcing his planned resignation in July. As a keen observer of global politics, my primary interest lies in examining what successful nations do right and the structural factors that cause others to lag or struggle with governance and development.

The Prime Minister’s planned resignation comes amid mounting public frustration over a stagnant economy, a worsening cost-of-living crisis, and a perceived failure to honour key campaign pledges.

Looking inward in our dear country, we can recall our own situation. Before 2015, our President on several occasions championed the call for the then President Goodluck Jonathan to resign over economic hardship and insecurity affecting Nigerians. During the Chibok school kidnapping incident, he demanded the immediate resignation of President Jonathan, arguing that the government had failed in its most fundamental duty of protecting lives.

During the 2023 election campaign, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu made several promises, including improved electricity supply. He also challenged the electorate not to vote for him for a second term if he failed to deliver on those commitments—particularly in providing stable power, fighting corruption, and improving the welfare of Nigerians.

At present, however, these conditions have worsened. Electricity supply remains unreliable, insecurity has intensified in many areas, including kidnappings, and economic hardship has deepened rather than eased. Similar concerns are reflected across other critical sectors such as security, infrastructure, transportation, and anti-corruption efforts, all of which have regressed. We are in the worst possible condition.

I, therefore, join Nigerians of goodwill in calling for the resignation of the President over monumental failure in governance. Such a gesture would help enthrone a political culture rooted in accountability and responsibility, rather than further entrenching impunity. It would also send a powerful message that public office is a sacred trust, not an entitlement, and help build a society in which future leaders understand that failure carries consequences. Only by ending the culture of impunity can we secure a better future for the society our children will inherit in a New Nigeria that is possible. -PO

As a Nigerian, I find it absurd that since 2022, Peter Obi has been the only major front-runner relentlessly grilled, constantly interviewed, and forced to engage the public at every turn. Meanwhile, Atiku and Tinubu seem to glide by without facing anything close to the same scrutiny. What exactly is going on here? Do they believe they are too important to be questioned, or are their supporters simply more comfortable shielding them from accountability and public scrutiny?

Nobody hears from the president, who sits on high Mount Olympus and only graces Nigerians with carefully scripted appearances and distant press statements from Bayo Onanuga, as though leadership is a privilege to be admired from afar rather than a responsibility to be constantly examined. Atiku is no different, equally distant, equally insulated, and just as unwilling to submit himself to the kind of sustained, unscripted engagement that true leadership demands.

My Prime Minister, Carney, faces the press almost daily and endures relentless grilling from the opposition in Parliament on virtually every issue. That is what accountability looks like in a functioning democracy.

Tinubu, on the other hand, answers to no one.

[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

Nigeria has a massive landmass of 923,768 square kilometres. Divided by our population of approximately 230 million, this results in about 4.00 square metres per person. The foregoing clearly illustrates that we have absolutely no justification for being among the world's hungriest nations.

Transitioning our nation from a state of consumption to one of production, through significant investments in agriculture, is the sole dependable strategy to escape the current depths of hunger and poverty. As I often emphasise, the uncultivated lands in our northern region represent our most substantial tangible assets. Transforming this sector is our direct pathway to prosperity.

ENERGY SECTOR
Nigeria today is the nation with the highest number of citizens lacking access to electricity globally. We currently generate and distribute a mere 4,000 megawatts (MW) of electricity for a population exceeding 200 million. In contrast, comparable nations worldwide - including several African peers such as South Africa and Egypt - each generate and distribute over 40,000 MW, despite both countries having less than half of our population. This considerable power shortfall continues to cripple businesses, choke industries, and stall overall economic growth.

Over the next four years, I commit to ensuring a minimum of 10,000 Mof W power increase generation and distribution.

UNEMPLOYMENT AND UNDEREMPLOYMENT

Our large pool of talented youth remains largely unemployed. The current official unemployment rate of 4% grossly misrepresents the true situation; actual underemployment and unemployment in Nigeria exceeds 30%, with youth unemployment sitting at over 40% - among the highest globally, necessitating urgent intervention. We will address this by aggressively supporting the growth of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) through targeted tax incentives, special interest rates, and accessible funding in sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing, entertainment, sports, and distribution. These improvements will be both measurable and verifiable.

CORRUPTION AND GOVERNANCE COSTS
Nigerians will witness a tangible and verifiable reduction in corruption and the baseline costs associated with governance. Public resources will be managed with absolute transparency, prudence, and accountability to ensure that every naira spent yields demonstrable value for citizens.

RULE OF LAW
The rule of law will be fiercely upheld, and adherence to it will be sacrosanct for both government officials and citizens alike, strictly in accordance with our constitutional frameworks.

DEMOCRACY
Our democracy will exemplify true governance of the people, by the people, and for the people, completely free from interference by the ruling party. Instead, we will institutionalise deep respect for opposition parties and foster constructive engagement in governance.

Under my leadership, democracy will be pursued with integrity, fairness, and transparency.

Following this i will make democracy work and the Vice president will be partner not a spare tyres. I hereby accept my affirmation and nominate Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso @KwankwasoRM as my Vice President.

May God bless you all, and may God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

[KWEKU THE HUSTLER @Urchilla01]

This is one of the most dishonestly gaslighting writeups. Expect more of these as the campaigns heat up. It shows that Tinubu is very afraid.

When GEJ removed petrol subsidy with so many safety nets to help cushion the effect at a time when the economy was better prepared to handle it, who politicised it and organised a protest to reverse it? Tinubu!

When GEJ, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, and Peter Obi were advocating for savings for the rainy day, who fought it vehemently? The governors who were aligned with Tinubu and the APC

When we had managed to keep Buhari, who was obviously clueless about governance, away from government, who went and teamed up with him to make sure he won for his own selfish ambition? Tinubu!

When insecurity was spreading all over the country, who turned a blind eye because he did not want to offend the North so he could get his turn at the presidency? Tinubu!

When herder terrorists made one of the first incursions into the SW and killed a prominent Yoruba person, who was out asking, "Where are the cows?"? Tinubu!

When the EndSars protests happened, who used his propaganda machinery to term it an insurrection sponsored by people who wanted to take over the government? Tinubu!

When did the military come in and kill peaceful, unarmed protesters? When Tinubu felt his moneybag at the tollgate genuinely threatened!

When he returned from France, where he fled for safety in the event that the country went up in flames after the shooting and was interviewed, what did he say? "Those at the tollgate have questions to answer too. Why were they there? How were they there? What kind of character are they?"

When Tinubu stole his way to power, what was the first thing he did? Yank off one of the only things Nigerians benefit from Nigeria. Took petrol subsidy away. Took education subsidy away. Asked us to endure baby steps of pain while spending our scarce commonwealth junketing across the globe, building expensive mansions for the VP in Abuja and his home state Borno, buying himself a new jet and a luxury yacht, taking the villa away from the national grid and pluging it fully into solar power while the entire country remains in darkness.

APC has been in power for 11 years. By next year, it'd be 12 uninterrupted years of APC in power. Tinubu and his party have brought nothing but pain, suffering, and death to Nigerians.

His audacity to be seeking a second term in office is solely because Nigerians are largely docile people. In some places, he'd have had to run into exile with his entire family by now.

[Esther Umoh @EstherUmoh10]

You could see the genuine happiness on Peter Obi’s face after Justice Crack was finally released. Beyond the politics, it was a human moment.

A man who was detained simply for speaking up about the welfare of soldiers finally regained his freedom, and Peter Obi quietly played a role behind the scenes in making that happen.

What touched me even more was how he stayed in contact with Justice’s wife throughout that difficult period, encouraging her and giving her hope when things seemed uncertain and even offered financial support in his own little way.

For me, moments like this say a lot about the kind of leadership Nigeria deserves. A country where citizens are not punished for asking questions, criticizing the government, or demanding better living conditions. A country where freedom of speech is respected and the rule of law actually means something.

If there’s one thing this moment showed, it’s that Peter Obi believes no Nigerian should be left behind or silenced for using their voice.

All he wanted in that moment was one chance, just one, to say a proper goodbye.

His eyes carried the weight of everything he never got to fix.

He begged.

Not with pride, but with a broken, heavy heart.

He wept and called out to them the way only a father can:

“My children, please. We are victims too.”

Nobody answered.

They moved closer.

A knife found his throat.

A camera was already rolling.

He asked himself quietly, is this real?, and for a second, maybe he hoped it wasn’t.

But the blade didn’t lie.

The pain told him everything.

They didn’t stop.

Not until it was over.

Maybe he wasn’t your father.

Maybe he wasn’t from your tribe or your side of the country.

But death doesn’t check your ID or your region before it knocks.

If it could happen to him, it can happen to yours.

2027 is on the table.

And the choice sitting in front of you is simple, choose the money, choose the stomach infrastructure, choose the temporary, and we will bleed like this for another eight years.

The blood is already on the ballot.

Choose wisely.

Keeping it a buck, Peter Obi has done his part; over 3 years he’s sustained his ‘opposition momentum’, has zero scandals & has kept his promise of appearing on the ballot.

I am retired now, and last year I thought, I would go home and just chill for a couple of months. It was rough. I do go home every now and then, but I'd never stayed this long.

I should have planned the trip better. I have been away for almost 44 years, and my system has been used to a certain planet. Everything about and in me was stressed. Nigeria is a different planet.

I did not attempt to replicate my comfort and lifestyle that I enjoy in the US. I stayed in rough and tumble places. It's hard if you do that. It's tough to think, to function, you are swamped with trying to make it through the day, seeing as you are deprived of what are basic services back in the US.

Light, water, good roads, security, they are luxuries there. I have said this before, in Nigeria, no matter how wealthy you are, you are basically poor. Things need to change in Nigeria, the place needs a hard reset and a Marshall plan to replace the inchoate and decaying infrastructure and services. I stayed the entire two months, I was too lazy to try to change my flight, I would have done so.

Would I go back? Absolutely. This time, I'll simply pay for comfort, I am too old to immerse myself in the drama of incompetence. I'll go back for the spirit and the camaraderie. My friends and relatives were incredibly generous and I did not lack, but I could tell they were struggling to keep up with my spiritual, emotional and physical needs. America had defanged me and I could no longer thrive in Nigeria's jungle. Our leaders and their enabler-intellectuals should be lined up and taught a lesson, if you know what I mean. Disgraceful lot.

Sadly, there is no sugarcoating it, Nigeria is in very bad shape. And I speak from professional experience having worked with municipal government in the US for decades. Any attempt to gloss over the mess that is Nigeria is not merely dishonest, it is cruel.

Nigeria needs a cultural and structural reset, one that this version of "democracy" cannot offer. Nigerians have no idea how badly they are being governed. And you don't have to go to the West to see that. Just go next door, to an African country. It's so sad. The two months I spent there, I lost total respect for our politicians and their enabler-intellectuals. They are all grifters.

[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

State visits by Leaders are not tourism, and diplomacy is not a fashion parade. Every foreign trip undertaken by a government must deliver measurable benefits to the people, including investments, technology transfer, trade agreements, factory expansion, industrial partnerships, and job creation.

During President Trump’s recent visit to China, the American delegation reportedly included a few top government officials, and many of the biggest figures in global business and technology:
Consequently, huge trade deals worth several billion dollars including about 200 Boeing orders were achieved.
The list of the entourage included

1. Donald J. Trump – President of the United States
2. Marco Rubio – Secretary of State
3. Pete Hegseth – Secretary of Defence
4. Elon Musk – CEO, Tesla & SpaceX
5. Jensen Huang – CEO, Nvidia
6. Tim Cook – CEO, Apple
7. Larry Fink – CEO, BlackRock
8. Stephen Schwarzman – CEO, Blackstone
9. Kelly Ortberg – CEO, Boeing
10. Brian Sikes – CEO, Cargill
11. Jane Fraser – CEO, Citigroup
12. Larry Culp – CEO, General Electric
13. David Solomon – CEO, Goldman Sachs
14. Sanjay Mehrotra – CEO, Micron Technology
15.Cristiano Amon – CEO, Qualcomm
16. Dina P. McCormick – President of Meta
17. Ryan McInerney – CEO, Visa
18. Michael Miebach – President, Mastercard
19. Jim Anderson – CEO, Coherent
20. Jacob Thaysen – CEO, Illumina

That is how serious nations approach diplomacy, by aligning foreign policy with economic expansion, industrial growth, innovation, and national productivity.

I hope that lessons can be learned from these recent visits comparing them with the President of Nigeria’s recent state visit to the United Kingdom.

A large entourage of politicians, aides, and government officials travelled, yet Nigerians are still asking a simple question: what exactly did Nigeria bring home?

Which factories are coming to Nigeria?
What power, technology, manufacturing, agricultural, or industrial agreements were secured?
How many direct jobs will this visit create for Nigerian youths?
What investments were attracted?
What measurable economic outcomes can the ordinary Nigerian point to?
The delegation reportedly included:
1. President Bola Tinubu
2. Senator (Mrs) Tinubu
3.12 governors
4.9 ministers
5.7 members of the National Assembly
6. Over 20 senior State House staff
7. Over 30 security personnel
8. Over 10 domestic staff
9. Several supporters and associates

It is not enough to ride horses, wear matching uniforms, attend royal banquets, and release glossy photographs. Symbolism without substance cannot feed hungry citizens.

Today, Nigeria is in decline, battling serious insecurity, food insecurity, unemployment, a weakened naira, declining industrial productivity, and worsening poverty.
At a time when millions of Nigerians struggle daily to afford food and survive economic hardship, every kobo spent on foreign trips must produce tangible national value: investments, factories, jobs, exports, infrastructure, and economic opportunities.

Nigeria needs leadership that is focused less on optics and more on productivity; less on ceremony and more on measurable economic results.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
