My Stance on Road Development
There is a pertinent reason I have consistently advocated that we should refrain from initiating new road construction projects until we have thoroughly rehabilitated and maintained our existing road network. Instead of undertaking new ventures and dualization projects that offer marginal benefits, our primary focus ought to be on repairing the critical roads already in place.
Consider, for instance, the Asaba–Benin Road. This thoroughfare is a vital artery within Nigeria's transportation infrastructure. Travellers traversing from Akwa Ibom, Anambra, Rivers, Imo, Ebonyi, Cross River, Abia, Enugu, and portions of Benue and Kogi States to Lagos are compelled to utilise this route.
Despite its significance, substantial sections of this road are in a lamentable condition. It has become a major impediment, precipitating persistent traffic congestion and inflicting undue hardship on travellers, businesses, and transport operators.
Regrettably, this situation is not unique; it reflects the reality on many of our busiest national highways.
Our efforts should be directed towards the reconstruction and maintenance of our current road infrastructure before we announce plans for new road projects. The Nigerian populace requires functional and motorable roads, not merely projects that garner public attention.
Efforts aimed at superficial improvements for political gain should not supersede the urgent need to address the condition of our existing, critical roadways.
A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO
I’m not the only one who witnessed that massive giveaway Bandits hosted on TikTok. The desperation from Nigerians especially the girls, was honestly shocking.
Account numbers (mostly OPay and MoniePoint) were flying across the screen non-stop during his live stream between 12:00 AM and 1:00 AM two nights ago.
The Fulani host ended up dishing out over ₦50 million, and the way people were shamelessly begging their so-called oppressors for money left me speechless.
Thousands were tuned in, glued to the live.
How did we, as a country, sink to this level? It’s genuinely heartbreaking.💔
Terrorists are demanding sharia implementation in Oyo as one of the conditions that must be met before they release the abducted school children and teachers.
Can you now understand why Islamic cleric and Muslims are quiet over the terrorists attacks? It's because Islamic terrorism is Islamic jihad as commanded by the Quran and the prophet. Islam is terrorising Nigeria.
I find it really weird that all my life in Church i was told that when you pray you also take actions
If you pray to pass you also have to read
If you pray to get rich you also have to work
But somehow we are told to pray for Nigeria and not hold our leaders accountable
“Instead of Remi Tinubu to focus on her husband’s kitchen, she’s there from Abuja interfering in Warri affairs. A woman with no feelings that calls herself a mother. Ijaw people are not afraid, let her stay out of our business.”
— Ijaw Chieftain knocks the First Lady.
Imagine for a second having a President who executes perfectly such as this; frankly speaking, watching this gave me goosebumps:
-Great communication skills
-Clarity of thoughts
-Precise understanding of the issues
- Facts, figures, the whole enchilada!
What more can you ask for in a global leader? It’s about time!
-A new Nigeria is POssible

Please release these children for the sake of our shared humanity
I am deeply shocked and heartbroken by the condition in which these abducted school children are, as seen from their flagellated bodies. It is a painful reminder of the depth of insecurity in our land.
I have always made it clear that the society we abuse today will take its revenge on our children tomorrow. When I first began making that statement, some of these children were not even born. This is a classic example of how the abuse of governance and society today can produce devastating consequences long after the abusers are gone.
It is on the same line that I argue that the loans our leaders take today will hurt our children in the future, as many of them will mature for repayment and consequences long after we are gone.
To those holding these children, I make a direct appeal to your conscience. Remember that these are innocent children - sons and daughters of people who have placed their hopes, dreams, and entire future in them. In every one of them, you will find reflections of your own children, your own family, and your own humanity.
No grievance, no hardship, no justification can ever outweigh the sanctity of a child’s life and innocence. Whatever path has led to this moment, there is still room for remorse, for humanity, and for a change of heart.
I therefore appeal to your sense of mercy: release these children immediately. Let them go. Return them safely to society to reunite with their families. -PO
Babachir Lawal has just dumped the ADC.
According to him, the ADC rigged the primaries for Atiku Abubakar.
And he cannot continue to exist in such space filled with corruption.
Remember, Babachir Lawal is the North East zonal leader of the party and a big stakeholder.
The former vice president is an RCCG pastor.
The current first lady is an RCCG pastor.
The current EFCC chairman is an RCCG pastor.
The current president is a very close friend to the GO of RCCG
Don't let anyone fool you. RCCG is also a problem..
