“Because they think they have over 30 governors, they thought they cannot lose the election. It’s a very big mistake, especially those in the northern part of Nigeria who have performed woefully to the extent that it’s difficult for them to come out to campaign. People are very angry; insecurity is everywhere.”

— NDC vice presidential candidate, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, speaking at the ongoing town hall meeting in Rivers State.

“Everything has cøllapsed in Nigeria. As of 1959, Nigeria’s National Shipping Line owned 6 vessels; by 1961, they owned 8 vessels, and it kept increasing. But today, they have no vessel.

I read today in the newspaper that when Emirates Airlines started in 1985, they started with two leased planes. At that time, Nigeria had over 20 planes. But today, Emirates Airlines has over 280 planes, while Nigeria’s own is now zero.

If today you’re critically ill in Nigeria and you go to the hospital, you might likely end up at the mørtuary. That’s why many Nigerians like taking ill people to church instead of hospital.”

— Mr. Peter Obi, speaking during a town hall meeting in Rivers State.

Macron says: « We are planning a meeting
here in France 🇨🇵 and we will invite all African leaders so that we can discuss Africa's economic prosperity

Captain IBRAHIM TRAORÉ RESPONDS:

« So you're not African, but you're planning a meeting to discuss African issues outside of Africa while inviting African leaders to travel outside of Africa to attend an African summit chaired by a non-African outside of Africa? Well, count me out of participating. »

The true definition of an african leader that possesses dignity and self esteem.

This was me some years back.

There’s a wheelbarrow guy who normally comes to our office to dispose of our waste. He usually charges between N700 and N1,000, but somehow, I would still price him down. 😂

One particular day, he came as usual to pack the refuse. We were all outside, and I was bargaining with him to collect N300 instead of the N500 he asked for.

One of my drivers quietly put his hand in his pocket, brought out N1,000 and gave it to the man.

Then he looked at me and said:

“Boss, God has blessed you to a certain level. There are some conversations you should be above.”

Omo… my feet dragged on the ground. 😂

That statement humbled me.

Sometimes, it’s not about whether you can get something cheaper. It’s about understanding that there are people whose little earnings mean far more to them than the few hundred naira you are trying to save.

Since that day, I’ve learnt to ask myself: Is this really a negotiation, or am I simply trying to save money at someone else’s expense?

That was one of the simplest but deepest lessons I’ve ever received from someone who works for me.

A President and the Endless Question of His Past

As a citizen of no other country, who has never sought foreign citizenship even when doing so became fashionable, my loyalty to Nigeria and my faith in her destiny remain unshaken.

Yesterday, 30th of August, being Sunday, I fervently prayed for our nation and for those entrusted with the solemn responsibility of leadership. I found myself deeply saddened by the direction in which our country is heading.

It is profoundly embarrassing that we have reached a point where a sitting President is asking a foreign court to withhold records concerning his past, particularly records relating to matters of legitimate public interest.

Leadership, in my humble view, demands the courage and humility to confront one’s history — to acknowledge mistakes, provide candid explanations where questions arise, and, where necessary, apologise and seek forgiveness. True authority is strengthened, not diminished, when a leader accepts responsibility rather than seeks to shield uncomfortable aspects of the past from legitimate scrutiny.

This becomes particularly important when questions concern educational credentials. Issues surrounding foundational schooling — primary and secondary — should not remain unresolved or be addressed primarily through legal proceedings. Nigerians deserve clear, credible, and verifiable explanations, especially when such had been submitted in the past.

My deepest concern is the example this sets for more than 200 million Nigerians, particularly the over 30 million young people in schools. The nation’s highest office should exemplify integrity, accountability, transparency, and ethical leadership.

An imperfect past is part of the human condition. What matters is the willingness to confront it with humility, honesty and deep apology, to make amends where necessary and, when circumstances so demand, to place the interests of the nation above personal ambition.

When will our political class fully appreciate that individual ambitions are temporary, while the nation endures? The Presidency is an office held for a season; the moral standards established by those who occupy it can influence generations.

Nigeria is greater than any one person, and the integrity of the Republic must always come before the interests of the individual.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
