Dear Young Nigerians,
One lesson from the 2023 elections, particularly in Lagos, should never be forgotten.
In the period following the presidential election and leading up to the governorship election, we witnessed a troubling shift in public discourse. Conversations that should have focused on competence, governance, development, and the future of our nation were gradually diverted towards tribal sentiments, ethnic divisions, and unnecessary suspicion among citizens.
Many sincere and well-meaning Nigerians participated in these conversations without realising that they were being drawn into narratives carefully designed by others.
Throughout history, whenever politicians find it difficult to compete on ideas, performance, character, or vision, some resort to exploiting the fault lines of ethnicity, religion, and identity. Their calculation is simple: a divided people are easier to manipulate than a united people.
Today, I see similar efforts emerging again, sometimes in more subtle and sophisticated ways. Narratives are planted, amplified, and circulated, often by individuals who genuinely believe they are defending a worthy cause, without recognizing the broader agenda behind such campaigns.
Let me state clearly that Pastor Enoch Adeboye remains one of the foremost fathers of faith in our nation. For decades, he has consistently preached the virtues of peace, prayer, love, reconciliation, and national unity. Even when faced with provocation, his response has always reflected humility, restraint, wisdom, and grace.
At 84 years of age, it would be unfair for young and able-bodied Nigerians to transfer to him responsibilities that properly belong to them. The task of building a better Nigeria rests primarily on the shoulders of the younger generation. It is their duty to lead the conversations, champion the reforms, and drive the positive change our nation urgently requires.
We must be careful not to become instruments in the hands of those who secretly nurture division while publicly preaching unity. In most cases, their target is not the individual being attacked; instead, it is the person who is attacking. Their real objective is to weaken the bonds that hold us together as one people and one nation.
I therefore urge all young Nigerians: do not allow anyone to recruit you into hatred. Do not allow anyone to weaponise your ethnicity, your faith, or your admiration for respected leaders.
Question every narrative. Verify every claim. Follow the facts. Resist manipulation.
The Nigeria of our dreams can only be built by citizens who refuse to be divided, who choose unity over hatred, and who place our collective future above narrow interests.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
Nigerian diasporans in particular are just really, really slow people in general.
Because if these lot had 50,000 brain cells among them, they'd have realised that the reason why "Canada is not what it used to be" is the exact same reason why the UK and US are also "not like before," and the Australia that is their new promised land is 100% destined to go the same way in the very near future.
The simple reason is that the global balance of economic power is in the final stages of permanently shifting from the West and its Oceania extensions to Asia. Those headlines you read everyday about the trade war and how America is slowly having its ass handed to it - I wonder whether you people even comprehend what these things mean, or maybe you just read the news because it's an aesthetic habit that oyibos taught your grandparents, who passed it on to you?
As a non-white person, you'd have to be about the dumbest person in the world right now to be exchanging one Western country for another, chasing that forever-elusive pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Even the Westerners know that their economic reign is over, and their young people are either establishing themselves all over Asia while their white privilege still allows them to, or they're strapping in and preparing for a civilisational decline, and possibly a war.
Meanwhile Africans who should have read the room and realised that they are neither welcome in Asia (which has no labour shortage and doesn't need immigrants) nor in the West (which has started deporting random immigrants to supermax slave prisons in El Salvador because why not), and NOW is the time to be liquidating all their Western assets and putting shovels in the ground in Africa while their dollars, pounds and euros still have power - but instead these special lastborns are busy swapping Canada for Australia, and UK for Saudi Arabia.
They really don't realise that the world as we knew it is over, and the amusement park is closing. Something the rest of the world can clearly see and is gearing up for, these wonderful geopolitical zombies don't know and aren't interested. Na oyibo visa still concern them even at this late hour.

ALERT
I have just voluntarily arrived at the Nigeria Police Force National Cybercrime Centre (NPF-NCC) in Abuja based on publicly available information that I am wanted. I’m here with @fijnigeria lawyer @abimbolaojenike.
If you haven’t heard from me by dawn, it means I have been detained, in which case, further updates will be provided by @fijnigeria.
See you ‘soon’, whenever that is — today, tomorrow, next week, next month. Whenever!

Let’s set the record straight together. Here is the full statement on the recent EFCC issue involving P-SQUARE and our former manager and elder brother, Jude Okoye.
I challenge PAUL, or anyone else, to produce any petition that I, Peter Okoye, my management or my legal team, ever filed against my twin brother PAUL, or that even mentions his name.
Thank you for your patience, understanding, and support. CC @officialefcc
