@justmercy__ You are such a beautiful soul. I'm left wondering if the mother really disappeared on you or something happened to her. Can't blame her for not wanting to terminate, but she absolutely cannot put this on you. That's selfish and wicked. Pls contact the relevant authorities.

[Chichi Uba @Cherrydearie]

@legacy_doorsng A beautiful perspective. 🙂

[Chichi Uba @Cherrydearie]

@UgwunnaEjikem This story is still doing me somehow. How wicked can a human being be to one who hasn't harmed him in any way? This is how an innocent girl just lost her life! Like it's so unbelievable.

Gak habis pikir sama taktik gila founder Canva dulu. Demi dapet modal bisnis, dia nekat latihan selancar berbulan-bulan sampe babak belur cuma buat ngejar investor yang lagi liburan di pantai.

Nama ceweknya Melanie Perkins. Dulu pas masih kuliah di Australia, dia punya mimpi bikin platform desain yang gampang banget dipake semua orang. Pas dia nyari modal ke San Francisco, dia malah diketawain dan ditolak sama 100 lebih investor di sana karena idenya dianggap konyol.

Tapi bukannya nangis terus pulang kampung, si Melanie ini malah muter otak pake strategi gila yang gak masuk akal sehat. Dia denger info kalo ada investor raksasa yang lagi dia incar tuh hobinya main kitesurfing (selancar layang).

Karena dia gak punya akses buat ketemu di kantor, dia nekat latihan olahraga ekstrem itu berbulan-bulan sampe badannya babak belur dihantam ombak. Tujuan utamanya cuma satu, biar bisa ikutan nyebur ke laut dan dapet celah waktu buat presentasi pas si bos lagi istirahat di pinggir pantai.

Bener-bener taktik nyari modal paling ekstrem. Tapi gila, dedikasi nekatnya itu berhasil ngeluluhin hati para investor. Tahun 2013 Canva resmi rilis, dan sekarang malah sukses jadi aplikasi raksasa bernilai ratusan triliun.

Jadi buat lu yang tiap hari pake Canva buat bikin tugas atau revisi desain kerjaan, sungkem dulu sama kegigihan mbak Melanie yang ampir kelep di laut demi lu semua.

"The condition of our nation and the urgent need to rescue Nigeria, informed my decision to leave ADC for NDC."

Yesterday, I formally joined the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC), alongside my dear brother, Engr. Dr Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, with one clear purpose: to continue the struggle for a new Nigeria built on justice, competence, accountability, and compassion for the ordinary Nigerian.

As I stated yesterday, this decision was not made out of anger, personal ambition, or convenience. It came after deep reflection on the present condition of our nation and the urgent need to rescue Nigeria from the dangerous path it is currently heading.

Over the years, I have remained steadfast in my conviction that politics should never be about individuals, positions, or personal gain. It must be about the people, especially the millions of Nigerians who today can no longer afford necessities, whose businesses are collapsing, whose children are losing hope, and whose future is becoming increasingly uncertain.

I left the ADC for the same reason I left the Labour Party: the severe, orchestrated litigation and internal crises deliberately designed to ensure that I, alongside many other notable individuals, do not effectively participate in the electoral process. I sincerely appreciate and remain deeply grateful to the Leadership of ADC for the opportunity to work together in pursuit of a better Nigeria. I am particularly grateful to ADC Chairman Senator David Mark for his exceptional Leadership. I also deeply appreciate my Leader and elder brother YE, Atiku Abubakar, as well as other respected leaders within the party.

As we join the NDC, I sincerely appeal to the Nigerian Government against the encouragement of unresolved litigations and the infusion of crises within political parties. Democracy must never become a weapon against the people. A healthy democracy thrives on strong institutions, credible alternatives, and the freedom of citizens to make choices without intimidation, manipulation, or fear. Opposition parties must not be weakened or destroyed, because when democracy loses balance, the people ultimately suffer.

Nigeria today is passing through one of the most difficult periods in its history. Poverty is rising. Hunger is widespread. Insecurity continues to threaten lives and livelihoods. Businesses are shutting down daily. Our young people are becoming discouraged, and many citizens have lost faith in the system. At a time like this, leadership must be driven not by propaganda or division, but by competence, capacity, character, and compassion.

Our decision to join the NDC is therefore not an abandonment of values, but a continuation of the same mission we have always stood for: building a Nigeria where leadership is about service, where public resources are managed responsibly, where institutions function independently, and where every Nigerian, regardless of tribe, religion, region, or social status, can live with dignity, security, and hope.

I remain committed to working with all Nigerians of goodwill across political, ethnic, and religious lines. The task before us is bigger than any individual or political party. It is about the future of our children and the survival of our dear nation.

I thank Nigerians, especially our youths and women, for remaining peaceful, resilient, and hopeful despite the enormous challenges confronting the country. I urge you not to lose faith in Nigeria. Nations do not change because people surrender to hopelessness; they change because people continue to believe, continue to sacrifice, and continue to stand for what is right.

A new Nigeria is still POssible. -PO

@InibeheEffiong I totally agree with you. Nobody hates Nigeria more than the Nigerian Politicians.

@TobbieXY The caretaker of the facility where our office is located miscalculated and thought my boss already paid the rent of one of our offices. This was over 5 years ago, rent was more than 1M. My boss told them he hadn't, that if they wanted to tempt him, they need a higher number.

[Chichi Uba @Cherrydearie]

@defiamrif @TobbieXY God bless you. Indeed there are millions of terrific Nigerians out here.

@OzorNdiOzor God of mercy! What did I just read? All the regulatory bodies mentioned and this couple are yet to get their child back? What kind of madness happens in this country like this?
