It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby — a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist — to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display in the Hope and Change lobby at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.
The Nigerian military is taking credit for “rescuing” some 400 hostages released by Boko Haram in Ngoshe.
That is a lie, of course. Here is the word from eyewitnesses on the ground.
Soldiers delivered ransom to Boko Haram, said to be somewhere between 3 and 5 billion naira.
Only Muslim hostages were released. The Christian women and children remain in captivity.
They were being held in a village named Gavva at the shadow of Mandara Mountain, three kilometers away from the military base in Ngoshe.
That is not a rescue. That is complicity, and a wealth transfer to their terrorist comrades. It is also proof and a continuation of the ongoing Christian genocide.
This is video of the Muslim women and children being returned.

This is how Omotosho sentenced Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to life imprisonment while terr0rists are left to live-stream on TikTok & Facebook, and also r@pe their victims & k!ll Nigerians including our soldiers.
They rather chose to negotiate with the terr0rists. When God’s judgement would fall on this country, only a few people may remain. This country is damned.
I see the Police Commissioner of Oyo doing his victory lap after the work was already done!
Hahahahah! I have learnt to keep quiet and look
It’s not everything I react to!
Those that know, know!
Kudos Sunday Ighobo, Kudos Police
It doesn’t mean if Sunday Ighobo is wrong tomorrow
I will not criticize him!
"Some of the kidnappers apprehended today by Sunday Igboho Oosa, Adisa Ogo, Omo Oko, Omoluabi Pataki. God bless him. He has spoken with me twice tonight and I also spoke to my brother Bayo Adelabu who confirmed the efforts of Sunday Igboho. Igboho was the fellow who handed over the bandits to the police although he admitted some of the kidnappers took to their heels upon identifying him Sunday and after retrieving their guns from them at their hideout at Soka area along Ojoo --Ibadan toll gate express way . What he did to achieve the feat was not revealed to me but he confirmed that the efforts of the security agents , the DSS , Police, Nigerian Army and Amotekun had restricted the movements of the bandits to Ibadan Metropolis as all the routes linking Ibadan had been militarised 24/7 since the incident. He admitted that much that the restrictions of the Kidnappers to one place aided his efforts. He sent me the above pictures and the 2 Ak 47 which he claimed he handed over to the police tonight at around 7Pm."--- Chief Niyi Akintola SAN
Something funny happened on Facebook yesterday.
An Atiku supporter, Ismail Ibrahim, a known Facebook influencer with thousands of Northern followers,
Conducted a presidential poll on Facebook yesterday between Peter Obi, Tinubu and Atiku.
10 minutes after, Obi was leading the poll with 7600 votes, followed by Atiku with 4800 votes.
The fuy rushed back and told his followers that the poll needs to be updated. He pulled it off and created another one, adding Donald Duke, Sowore and GEJ.
After 20 minutes, Obi was leading again with a tight margin.
The guy got angry and deleted everything. 😂
