Good news. On July 23, 2026, I will be unveiling the Southeast Human Right Bureau, an innovative project to counter the growing violations of human rights in the region and the spate of reckless executive lawlessness in the region.
This week, I have observed with deep concern two notable media appearances: one by my brother, Mr. Peter Obi, and the other by the family of Malam Nasir El-Rufai.
In his interview with Mr. Chude Jideonwo, Mr. Obi voiced serious worries about his personal safety and the adverse impact his role as an opposition leader has had on his businesses. Even more troubling was the Federal Government’s response, which resorted to personal insults and derogatory language instead of the restraint and maturity expected of a democratic administration.
Let me state clearly: like every Nigerian, our presidential candidate and all of us deserve the full protection of the state, not ridicule for raising legitimate concerns.
Democratic leadership requires fairness, justice, and restraint.
A government entrusted with protecting citizens should not dismiss or mock credible calls for help from any individual, including Mr. Peter Obi.
On the other hand, it was distressing to watch the wives of Malam Nasir El-Rufai publicly express the family’s anguish over his prolonged detention.
Regardless of political affiliation, Malam El-Rufai, like every Nigerian, is entitled to due process and the presumption of innocence until proven guilty by a competent court. The continued delay in granting him bail through what many perceive as stringent and unreasonable conditions is deeply concerning. As an unconvicted citizen, he deserves a fair and expeditious trial, while his health and that of his family are adequately safeguarded.
I therefore join well-meaning Nigerians in urging the Federal Government to handle these matters with transparency, accountability, and justice. These issues must not be weaponised to settle political scores.
For our democracy to truly thrive, every citizen; young or old, regardless of ethnicity, religion, or political persuasion must receive equal and equitable treatment under the law from the government that exists to protect us all. - RMK
Don Anele Munachimso won 2 gold medals yesterday at the International STEM Olympiad.
He is currently the world’s best in Maths and Sciences.
He is also the best in IGCSE in Nigeria.
What a brilliant youngster!
This is one of the world-class teachers that propelled the Geniuses to victory in Rome. His name is Anthony Iwegbu. Nigerian teachers must drive cars, they must own houses as well. @tonymaths042 deserves our patronage. He deserves our massive following as well. 👏
Nigeria is on an absolute intellectual winning streak on the global stage! 🇳🇬🔥
While we are rightfully celebrating our brilliant boys who secured Mathematics gold in Rome today, we must also amplify the story of another history-maker.
Meet Adeolu Damilola Oreofe. 🧵👇 (1/4)
After winning Gold in Mathematics, Don-Anele Munachimso went on to win another Gold in Science, emerging as the World’s Best in Science at the International STEM Olympiad in Rome, Italy.
Already celebrated as the Best in IGCSE Chemistry in Nigeria.
This is a proud moment for southeast and a powerful reminder that investing in young minds always pays off.
Chimdiebube Onwubiko won a gold medal at the International STEM Olympiad.
He is just 13 years old and currently in JSS3. He has finished _Engineering Mathematics_ by K.A. Stroud.
He has now proven himself on the world stage.
Today is D-day.
Our boys are now at the Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma for the Grand Finale of the International STEM Olympiad in Rome, Italy.
I’m optimistic about their victory.
The 3 wise men from the East are set to head to Rome: Chimdiebube Onwubiko, Egejurum Onyedikachi, and Don Anele Munachimso.
Their assignment is simple: bring back the gold.
They will be competing with 154 other countries in Rome, Italy, this week.
Since Nigeria couldn’t qualify for the World Cup, this will be our World Cup.
I'm thinking we should have an annual Best Teacher Award where the best teacher each year wins ₦100 million.
We can have other categories too.
Something like a Grammy to celebrate and inspire teachers.
What do you think?
