Thank you Ibrahim Jibrin @JibrinIbrahim17. He is a Researcher & a Political Scientist. An Associate Professor at ABU, Zaria. One of the very few intellectuals I admire. Listen to the voice of reason. A breath of fresh air. 👏👏
Bishop Oyedepo has spoken like one of the prophets of old. He has passed the most important message. He said, “get your PVC, secure your future!” WOW! WOW! WOW! 👏
"If we cannot protect Mr. Peter Obi, then we cannot protect our votes. If we can't protect this one man who has risked it all to ensure Nigeria works, then we cannot protect our future."

Seyi Tinubu flaunts in the club every weekend with luxury cars.
Habibat Tinubu lives a glamorous lifestyle in the U.S. She bought an apartment in NYC for over 2 million dollars when she was just 22.
Zainab Tinubu has no work we know of, yet she also bought an apartment in New York when she was just 25.
Your entire family siphons off Nigeria’s wealth. The only time you are seen helping the poor is when you want to use them for political gain.
We must remove this family from Aso Rock whether they like it or not.
The Role of the Diaspora African in Sustainable Development
On Friday, July 10, 2026, I had the honour of delivering the keynote address at Mandela Hall, African Union Permanent Observer Mission to the United Nations in New York, on _The Role of the Diaspora African in Sustainable Development across Africa.
Africa is a continent of immense riches. Indeed, it is the richest continent in the world, not only because of its vast mineral resources but also because of its greatest asset, its people. It is the second largest continent by landmass, after Asia, covering more than 30 million square kilometres. It is also the second most populous continent, with over 1.5 billion people. Significantly, more than one billion of these are young people in their productive years, making Africa home to the largest youthful workforce in the world.
When this demographic advantage is combined with nearly one billion hectares of arable land, about 60% of which remains uncultivated, it becomes clear that Africa possesses everything required not only to feed itself but also to become the food capital of the world.
Regrettably, despite this enormous potential, Africa remains home to the largest concentration of the world’s poorest people. Of the approximately 800 million people living in extreme poverty globally, nearly 60% are in Africa. That is about 480 million people, with Nigeria and the Democratic Republic of the Congo among the countries most affected. In other words, nearly one in every three Africans lives in extreme poverty. Likewise, in multidimensional poverty, Africa continues to bear the greatest burden.
The question, therefore, is simple. With all these advantages, why has Africa not been able to lift its people out of poverty?
It means there is a missing link. That missing link is Competent Leadership with Capacity, Compassion, Character, and Commitment to good governance.
What Africa needs is leadership that will rise to the challenge and drive the continent in the right direction. This means competent leadership with character, capacity, compassion and commitment to begin turning the continent around. When we get leadership right, everything else begins to change. We start realising our true potential.
So, what is the role of the Diaspora African in this journey?
You have an enormous role to play.
Because you live in societies where institutions largely work, where democracy is strengthened by accountability and where systems function more effectively, you have both an opportunity and a responsibility to help build Africa. It is time to become stronger advocates for good governance. Even where you cannot vote, your voices matter. They should be heard both at home and abroad whenever things are going wrong on our continent. Stand firmly for what is right. Speak truth to the leaders who visit you. Let them know where they are getting it wrong. That is what some of us have continued to do.
The contribution of the African diaspora extends far beyond advocacy. History teaches us that many of the world’s great economic transformations were driven, in part, by their diaspora communities.
Japan offers one example. Following the Meiji Restoration of 1868, the country embraced modernisation and benefited immensely from Japanese scholars, professionals and citizens who studied and worked abroad, especially in Germany, before returning home to drive the technological transformation for which Japan is admired today.
China presents another remarkable example. It was under Deng Xiaoping’s reforms, beginning in 1978, that China embraced education, innovation and global engagement. These reforms created opportunities for the Chinese diaspora to contribute significantly to the country’s extraordinary economic transformation. In 1980, China had more people living in poverty than Africa. Today, China has reduced extreme poverty dramatically, while Africa continues to struggle with the challenge.

Senator Garba Musa Maidoki echoed what most Nigerians have been saying. Nigerians were not consulted on the State Police Bill. There was no public hearing. The timing is highly suspicious. This is a huge indictment on the Godswill Akpabio-led National Assembly.
“When Chibok happened, it was the fault of President Jonathan. They went all over the world and asked President Jonathan to bring back the children. But when this (Oyo kidnap) happened, it is the irresponsibility of the state governor and the state government.”

Mr Peter Obi MAY Never Get Another Endorsement Greater Than This!
If the founder and grand Patron of Boko Haram, who has been silent for years, all of a sudden reappears and begins attacking you, that means you are the person everyone should rally behind.
Thank you, Ali Modu Sheriff, for this, if only you knew what you just did!
Nigerians, if all the destroyers of your country are going against one man, you don’t need a soothsayer to tell you he is your man!
So after searching the universe to get something that will criminate Peter Obi, they finally got 'wrong parking.'
Congratulations to Tinubu and his gang. 😂🤣
