@preciousebere I really needed to hear these 😔

[Precious DO🇳🇬 🇬🇧 @preciousebere]

Another form of low self-esteem is being too available for people who've shown you, time & time again, that they don't value your time, effort, or presence. It's hard, but stop chasing what's not choosing you. Regulate your nervous system, protect your peace and worth. Cheers✌🏻

BREAKING: Kenneth Okonkwo Is on the Run!

The court has granted Peter Obi's request to serve Kenneth Okonkwo through substituted means.

Since Kenneth Okonkwo is now on the run, the court has given Mr. Obi the permission to serve him by any means, even through the social media.

Bayo Onanuga wants Nigerians to believe that this same Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi ran a “fictitious” Presidential Economic Advisory Council right under their noses? Does Femi Gbajamiabila think we were born yesterday?

You want us to believe that Prince Adeniyi metaphysically misled the Presidency, the Central Bank of Nigeria, & the accountant-general of the federation to open an account domiciled in CBN in his Agency’s name?

He equally misled the presidency to budget a whopping ₦1.3 billion for a nonexistent agency in a budget prepared by your government?

THIS IS BEYOND SCANDALOUS!

Prince Adeniyi must not be silenced!

STATEHOUSE STATEMENT

Re: The Matter of Adeniyi Adeyemi Matthew and the fictitious  Presidential Economic Advisory Council

We are aware of the public interest in the matter of a man called  Adeyemi Adeniyi Matthew, who has been parading himself as the director-general of a fictitious Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council cum Presidential Economic Advisory Council.

The office of the Chief of Staff to the President first blew the whistle on the existence of the illegal agency, following complaints from officials of the Nigerian Investment Promotion Council that another government agency appeared to be functioning at cross-purposes with it.

The Chief of Staff, on October 17, 2025, in a letter, asked the DSS and the Police to probe the activities of ‘fraudsters and imposters’ forging appointment letters purportedly from his office.

“The attention of this office has been drawn to the activities of certain individuals and groups engaged in the forgery of official appointment letters purportedly issued from my office. The fake documents, bearing falsified signatures, reference/folio numbers, and seals, have been used to claim leadership appointments to non-existent entities, with particular reference to the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council.

“The aforementioned entity under the leadership of one Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi Matthew as Director-General is said to have an office at the Federal Secretariat Complex Phase 111, 2nd Floor. Also, they have been parading themselves as a legitimate government agency, hosting meetings with both foreigners and Nigerian citizens, and even going so far as to request a note verbale from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the United States of America to facilitate visas for some of their staff.

“The above development not only constitutes a serious criminal act but also undermines the integrity of the presidency and the credibility of official government communication. 

“I therefore urge you to initiate a thorough investigation to identify and apprehend those involved and also to uncover the network facilitating the forgery,” the Chief of Staff wrote in his petition to the security agencies.

The letter to the security agencies was accompanied by a copy of the forged appointment letter, a copy of the request for a note verbal to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and pictures of engagements obtained from the illegal agency's website.

Around the time the Chief of Staff lodged the complaint with the security agencies, the existence of the fake agency had raised concerns within the Foreign Affairs Ministry.

In a letter on October 15, 2025, the Foreign Affairs Ministry wrote to the office of the National Security Adviser and the Chief of Staff to the President, requesting clarification on the status of Adeyemi’s agency. The letter, which Ambassador Anderson Madubuike signed, followed Adeyemi’s October 10 meeting with ambassadors at the Wells Carlton Hotel and Apartments in Asokoro, without recourse to the ministry.

“This act contravenes extant rules and regulations guiding diplomatic practices globally,” the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in its letter.

On October 20, the Office of the National Security Adviser wrote to the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, on the request of the Foreign Affairs Ministry.

On 29 October,  the OSGF wrote to the Chief of Staff requesting clarification. “This has become expedient owing to several requests from governmental and non-governmental bodies seeking to ascertain the status of the appointment under consideration”

Two days earlier, the Chief of Staff sent his own clear rebuttal to the Foreign Affairs Ministry, stating that he had never issued an appointment letter to Adeyemi as director general of the fake presidential foreign investment promotion council. The Chief of Staff could not have issued a letter of appointment to a non-existent agency. Moreover, the Chief of Staff does not make appointments or write letters, as these are the exclusive preserve of the Office of the Secretary of the Government of the Federation.

On November 5, 2025, the Chief of Staff responded to the OSGF, again flatly denying Adeniyi Adeyemi and his spurious agency. “Prince Adeniyi Matthew, director-general of the Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council, is unknown to any office, nor do we have any dealings with the said council.

“My attention was drawn to a letter of this purported application, which is fake, and my office has instructed the police and other relevant security agencies to carry out investigations on the person and the entity he claims to represent”, the chief of staff wrote.

The Police made the first move by responding to the chief of staff's letter dated 17 October and began their investigation. On 27 October, Adeyemi was arrested in Abuja at the Secretariat office where he operated his elaborate scam.

The police searched the office and Adeyemi’s home in Suleja, recovering vital documents and exhibits. In Adeyemi’s statement to the police, he claimed that one Dolapo Babatunde Tanimola assisted him in procuring the fake appointment letter. Following his claim, the police went after the said Tanimola.  The Police found that Tanimola died in a fire incident at Kachi Hotel in Abuja on 22 October, five days before Adeyemi’s arrest. Tanimola’s body was seen by the police at the morgue, confirming the death.

The police were able to establish that the agency Adeyemi purportedly headed was fictitious, that he forged his appointment letter and the documents recovered in his office and home, that he falsely paraded himself as a government appointee, and that he falsely solicited a note verbal from the Foreign Affairs Ministry to enable him and his staff to obtain US visas. The police also found that Adeyemi operated 34 bank accounts, with nine opened in the names of his fictitious agencies, known as the FCT Investment Promotion Agency and the Public Private Partnership (FIPA-APP), and the FCT Investment Promotion Act.

The Police found that Adeyemi, using the fake documents he created, fraudulently opened a CBN account by misleading the Office of the Accountant-General of the Federation. According to the police, no government money has been transferred into the account.

“The act of the suspect constitutes criminal forgery, impersonation and obtaining by false pretence, thereby bringing the office of the Chief of Staff to the President and the Presidency to disrepute before the public and international community”, the police wrote in the report of the investigation conducted by the assistant commissioner, Kabir Mogaji. 

Based on their investigations, the police filed an eight-count charge at the Federal High Court in Abuja against Adeyemi and two of his accomplices on November 27, 2025. He is due in court on July 27.

Adeyemi was on police bail when he recently claimed that the Chief of Staff had appointed him as DG of the fictitious agency. This claim contradicted his statement to the police in November last year. His new claim prompted the Chief of Staff, on June 8, to issue a disclaimer consistent with earlier advisories that the man, called Adeyemi,  is an impostor. 

The case of Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi Matthew is a clear case of a con artist who appears to have built a web of false claims to deceive unsuspecting government officials and the public into playing by his scam book. He has a history of fraudulent misrepresentation. In November 2016, he paraded himself as an ambassador and President-General of the World Youth Organisation (WYO), an affiliate of the United Nations (UN). He claimed to have been elected in New Delhi, India. The local media celebrated him until the UN denied the existence of such a body.

Politicians and members of the public who are weaponising Adeyemi's claim against the Chief of Staff should refrain from swallowing his narrative hook, line and sinker. They are advised to await the trial of Adeyemi and his accomplices, as well as the court's judgement, as comments made today are sub judice.

Funny how Rarara found his voice to attack Davido but couldn’t find it when northern children were being kidnapped in their hundreds.

Davido used an international stage to demand justice for abducted pupils and teachers. Rarara is upset because he reminded the world of a crisis they preferred to ignore. The difference is obvious.

[Youth Advocacy @FanPagePrecious]

@BashirAhmaad everything must not be ethnic war. Stop been an illiterate here.

Kidnapped Nigerian retired general dies in captivity https://t.co/WAvtPlKsO1

[OjiUgo™️🍫👁️‍🗨️ @OjiUgo_nwa]

So, the late Major General Rabe was buried today after the terrorists released his corpse. Now be pertinent question is, who was the body released to and why?

Nigeria is a country of particular concern indeed.

[NEFERTITI @firstladyship]

Under Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (BAT), more commissioned officers have been slaughtered.

We lost:

1. Brigadier General Musa Uba.
2. Major General Abubakar Rabe (rtd).
3. Brig. Gen. Oseni Omoh (O.O.) Braimah.

4. Lt. Col. S.I. Iliyasu (March 2026).
5. Lt. Col. Umar Farouq (March 9, 2026).
6. Col. Aliyu Saidu Paiko. (October 2025).
7. Lt. Col. Umar Ibrahim Mairiga, (Mar 1, 2026).

Nigeria lost more “commissioned” army officers under Tinubu than under Buhari & Jonathan combined. The calamity that befell the Nigerian Army in 3 years is unimaginable.

We lost multiple camp commanders (including a Major in Damasak & others in Monguno). They fell to attacks, others fell to IEDs.

These are twenty, twenty-five, thirty & thirty-five years of active service wasted. They died so that politicians can soirée & party hard.

THE HEROES OF NIGERIA ARE NO MORE! 💔🇳🇬

[NEFERTITI @firstladyship]

Dear Nigerians, PAY ATTENTION!

This is disturbing, I can’t even sleep.

Tinubu is implementing — SAP 2.0, a program of the IMF. It will lead to premium tears.

Babangida tried it & it failed woefully.
In fact, it led to Anti-SAP Riots in 1989.

SAP caused the rapid depreciation of the Naira, inflation, widespread hunger, & cost of living crises. The protests forced IBB to call for the 1993 Presidential Election that produced MKO

BAT is implementing the same failed policies in 2026. SAP or (Structural Adjustment Program) is exploitative. It was carefully designed by the IMF & World Bank to ensnare developing nations into debt traps & neo-colonial reliance.

Chief MKO Abiola was fiercely against it.

He was vehemently against these Bretton Woods Institutions. Nigerians should know their History. “My people perish for lack of knowledge.” Bola Tinubu is out to destroy Nigeria completely. You can read more here:

By the way, he's also not a qualified pilot and he made up at least one of the helicopter pilot schools he claimed to have attended. The so-called "Petroleum Helicopters Institute” does not exist.

Leave it to that useless dead bastard called Muhammadu Buhari to make a total fugazi like this one a cabinet minister.

I watched this 4-minute speech by Alex Otti yesterday at the Invest Lagos 3.0 Investment Summit, held at the Eko Convention Centre, Lagos, and all of a sudden, I wished I were from Abia State.

It would be a disservice if I didn't share this video with you all. 👏🏾🇳🇬🔥

The way he spoke, communicated his vision, and showcased Abia State was truly top-notch. He's a leader par excellence.

I must admit, his speech left a strong impression on me.

Beyond the words, what stood out was the clarity of his vision, his confidence, and the passion with which he spoke about the future of Abia State. He didn't just address an audience, he sold a vision and made people believe in what is possible.

His leadership style, commitment to development, and the visible changes many residents say they are experiencing have earned him praise far beyond the borders of Abia State.

This is the kind of communication people expect from leaders: clear, inspiring, and focused on results.

Just watch the video and judge for yourself. 👏🏾🔥🇳🇬

NDC’s New Election Strategy Sparks Debate as Pat Utomi Announces Independent Result Transmission Plan:

Prof. Pat Utomi says the NDC is preparing its own independent election result transmission system ahead of the 2027 elections.

According to him, election results from polling units across Nigeria will be transmitted live and monitored globally through major international media platforms, including CNN, BBC, Al Jazeera, Fox News, and credible Nigerian news outlets.

Utomi also revealed that the party plans to deploy a strong network of polling unit agents nationwide to ensure votes are protected and election officials are not subjected to intimidation.

ACCEPTANCE SPEECH BY MR. PETER OBI FOLLOWING HIS NOMINATION AS THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE OF THE NIGERIAN DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS(NDC) – MAY 30, 2026

Protocols,

Esteemed citizens of Nigeria,

It is with deep humility that I accept the role of presidential candidate for our party.
I express my profound gratitude to the leaders of our party. His Excellency Seriake Dickson, the National Chairman, National Secretary and the National Working Committee, NWC members and members of our relentless supporters, and the Nigerian populace who have steadfastly kept the spirit of hope alive. I commend those who have made the journey from every region of our nation to convene here in Abuja.

I wish to assert unequivocally: a New Nigeria is Possible. This conviction has united us; it must serve as our compass on the challenging road ahead and sustain us through all trials we may face. This pivotal moment transcends the individual ambitions of Peter Obi; it concerns the essence of our nation and the future of our children. It is about rekindling hope for millions who have faced adversity yet remain committed to Nigeria.

Today, our nation finds itself at a crucial juncture, enveloped in uncertainty. Families are anxious about their safety; parents are concerned for their children's futures; and talented youth increasingly question their prospects in their homeland.

Businesses are struggling, communities are suffering, and an alarming number of citizens have lost faith in the very concept of governance. Yet, I stand before you filled with optimism and strong faith in the resilience of our people, for I firmly believe that a New Nigeria is possible.

UNITY
To realise this New Nigeria, we must first mend the foundational elements essential for the success of any nation.

Nigeria cannot advance while fragmented by ethnic, religious, regional, or narrow political divides. We may communicate in different languages and practise diverse faiths, but we share a singular destiny under one flag. Our diversity should not be a source of division; rather, it is among our greatest strengths.

We should build bridges where others erect barriers, replace mistrust with confidence, division with understanding, and resentment with a collective purpose. A united Nigeria is indispensable. As Will Durant wisely pointed out, "A great civilisation is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within." We must never self-destruct. We must heal, unify, and progress together.

INSECURITY
In terms of security, the situation in Nigeria has considerably worsened. The global terrorism impact assessments ranked Nigeria as the 8th most affected nation in 2022, 6th in 2024, and 4th in 2026.
Yet, for many years, Nigeria garnered global recognition as a reliable contributor to peacekeeping, regional stabilisation, and conflict resolution. Our troops have not only displayed bravery but have also shown professionalism, discipline, resilience, and empathy in the most challenging operational contexts. Our officers and personnel have successfully commanded multiple international forthe ces, safeguarded vulnerable civilian populations, monitored ceasefires, reinstated constitutional order, and contributed to rebuilding efforts.

Nigeria became one of the leading contributors of troops from Africa to UN peacekeeping missions and earned widespread admiration for operational effectiveness and leadership in various countries, including Rwanda, Sudan, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Mali, Western Sahara, Congo, Lebanon, Cambodia, Haiti, and Kuwait. At one pointin a Nigeria, Lt. General Isaac Obiakor (rtd) even led global peacekeeping initiatives.

We must address insecurity with resolve and urgency, for no nation can thrive while its citizens live in trepidation. The primary responsibility of the government is to ensure the safeguarding of lives and property.
