President Trump's statement over the weekend declaring that the United States has "largely ended the slaughter of great Christian populations" in Nigeria is alarming. It is dangerous. And it is patently false.

The strikes were real. Credit where it's due — no president before Trump hit Nigeria's jihadists at all. The Christmas Day strike on Sokoto and the May 16 strike that killed the world's number-two ISIS commander were real blows.

But the group doing most of the genocidal killing was never touched.

The Fulani militias — the armed networks that have burned more than 20,000 churches, slaughtered families in the night, and driven twelve million people from their ancestral land — have not been struck. They are forces operating under the protection of the Caliphate structure, loyal to the same ruling elite that has been running this jihad since 1804. They are fully intact, still in the field. And by every visible measure, the situation has not improved — it has gotten worse.

Not just the killing. The government deception. The incompetence, corruption and complicity. The government that denies the existence of millions of displaced people. The Islamic supremacist now rewriting the national school curriculum for fifty million children in what he calls “intellectual jihad.” The Fulani militia commanders who have never faced a courtroom, a drone, or a consequence of any kind.

Now look at the timing.

A ginned-up diaspora "gala" in Washington last week -- days before Trump's disturbing pivot -- became a de-facto Tinubu campaign rally. His people worked the room, the “cooperation” between the US and Nigerian governments was celebrated. Contrary voices were silenced. People wined and dined and gave each other awards to celebrate who-knows-what in the middle of an ongoing genocide. Tinubu's own spokesman was hailed as an “honored guest” and closed the evening at the microphone with an extended infomercial for the corrupt administration.

Days later, President Trump announced the genocide is largely over.

That is not a coincidence. That is a play.

Tinubu just learned he faces no backlash for backing off. Trump learned that the self-appointed voice of the diaspora celebrates his partnership with Tinubu and their “accomplishments.” That is a green light — the movement strategically silenced at the exact time to ensure Washington filed Nigeria under “problem solved.”

It worked. And if it sticks, the results will be catastrophic.

I believe there is still hope to bring this back into the spotlight, to compel Trump to act, but there’s not much time.

Look at what moved Trump the first time: In September, Bill Maher raised the issue of the Nigerian Christian Genocide on national television. Ted Cruz loudly made it a Senate matter. And then days later Trump threatened Country of Particular Concern designation.

Next, my October 14 press conference in Abuja generated billions of impressions and triggered an emergency Senate session. The resulting outcry moved the needle. Days later, Trump promised to come “guns-a-blazin.”

Now the voices have gone soft, become complicit, absorbed into DCI’s swamp -- and immediately Trump talks as if he’s turning away.

These are not coincidences. It’s loud public outcry that forced the issue and compelled action.

We need that outcry again right now, louder than ever.

If President Trump has "accomplished" his mission in Nigeria, then his mission was never about stopping the genocide or saving Christians.

We know better. He can do better. But only if we get loud enough that he has to. Right now.

He took fuel subsidy away from 230m citizens and shared it with 36 Governors because he needs them for his reelection.

So “fuel subsidy is gone” has been all about his 2027 aspiration?

Accountable Borrowing: The South Africa Example.

I have consistently maintained that borrowing, in itself, is not a bad thing. Every nation borrows. The critical issue is not the act of borrowing, but what the borrowed funds are used for and whether citizens can clearly see and measure the impact of such borrowing in their daily lives.

There is a lot to learn in the open and transparent manner in which South Africa handled its recently secured a $1 billion loan from the New Development Bank, with a clearly defined purpose. Publicly announcing the targeted purpose of the loan for all to know and monitor, upgrading water supply systems, modernising sanitation infrastructure, improving electricity distribution, and strengthening waste management services across eight major metropolitan cities, including Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban.

This is indeed what accountable borrowing should look like; the purpose is clear, the projects are identifiable, and the expected benefits to citizens are measurable. Such investments directly improve living conditions, enhance productivity, and stimulate economic growth.

In Nigeria, however, the opposite is the case: public debt has risen dramatically under the current administration, and its deployment is shrouded in secrecy from the people who will indeed pay back the loan. Today, our total public debt has increased from about ₦87 trillion in 2023 to nearly ₦200 trillion.

Yet, despite this unprecedented accumulation of debt, Nigerians are often left without a clear and detailed account of how these borrowings are being deployed to improve critical sectors such as education, healthcare, power, security, and infrastructure.

Borrowing must never become an end in itself. Every loan obtained in the name of the Nigerian people must be tied to specific, productive investments capable of generating economic value, creating jobs, reducing poverty, and improving the welfare of citizens.

Good governance demands transparency and accountability. The government must be able to clearly explain what was borrowed, where it was invested, and what measurable outcomes have been achieved. The ordinary Nigerian should be able to see and feel the benefits of every debt incurred on their behalf.

At a time when millions of Nigerians are struggling with rising costs of living, unemployment, insecurity, and declining purchasing power, fiscal discipline and prudent management of public resources are no longer optional; they are imperative.

Every borrowing decision should answer one simple question: How does this improve the life of the ordinary Nigerian? If that question cannot be convincingly answered, then we risk merely transferring today's burdens to future generations.

[bar ifeanyi ejiofor @EjioforBar]

One dominant truth about human nature is that no person can successfully conceal, for eternity, the inherent traits of deceit, fraud, misrepresentation, blackmail, and other reprehensible conduct. Time remains the ultimate revealer of character. No matter how carefully such vices are disguised, romanticized, or cloaked in false virtue, they will inevitably be exposed. The tragedy, however, is that when the mask finally falls, often by the very actions of the perpetrator, the revelation sends shockwaves far and wide.

I had long foretold that a day of reckoning would come; a day when deception and falsehood would stand naked before the court of truth, and when the souls sacrificed on the altar of lies would cry out for justice, even from their graves.

May the Good Lord deliver our people, heal our land, and grant us the wisdom to discern truth from illusion. It has now become abundantly evident that all that glitters is not gold.

Presidential Candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi, has criticised the Federal High Court ruling ordering the deregistration of some political parties, warning that any action perceived to undermine the independence of key national institutions could have far-reaching consequences for Nigeria’s democracy and economy.

Obi argued that strong nations are built on credible institutions that operate independently and enjoy public trust. He cautioned that weakening confidence in the judiciary could erode faith in the rule of law and discourage investment at a time when Nigeria needs economic growth and stability. Reflecting on past concerns over judicial independence, Obi stressed that investors can navigate security, policy and market risks, but are often deterred by uncertainty surrounding the rule of law and perceptions of political interference in the courts

How Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s self-representation flawed his conviction

By ALOY EJIMAKOR

Following the debriefing of his legal team led by Chief Kanu Agabi, SAN, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu firmly announced his intention to personally handle his own defense. The trial court accepted this waiver of counsel, asked if he wanted an assigned lawyer, noted his rejection, and then proceeded.

Now that the case lies on appeal, the deeper, central question the Court of Appeal must confront is this: Can a defendant facing charges that carry the death penalty legally waive his right to counsel under Nigerian law?

The short answer is no. In allowing Nnamdi Kanu to represent himself in a trial involving capital offenses, the learned trial judge unarguably committed a fatal fundamental error in law. Under the Nigerian criminal justice system, the right to legal representation in capital offenses is not a luxury the defendant can decline; it is a rigid and mandatory constitutional safeguard that the court has an absolute duty to enforce, even against the explicit wishes of the defendant.

At first glance, there exists an illusion of permissible self-representation that lies in Section 36(6)(c) of the Constitution which appears to sanction self-representation by stating that every person charged with a criminal offense is entitled to defend himself "in person or by legal practitioners of his own choice."

That may be so in misdemeanors or less severe felonies, where the choice to speak for oneself is a permitted prerogative. However, the Constitution does not operate in a vacuum. It is anchored on the ultimate pillar of fair hearing, and contemporary Nigerian criminal jurisprudence has long recognized that the gravity of capital offenses (where human life hangs in the balance) strips away the court's discretion to permit self-representation.

The statutory directive is enacted under the Administration of Criminal Justice Act which explicitly curtails the right to self-representation when the stakes are grave. Section 267(2) of the ACJA leaves no wiggle room for ambiguity when it provides that: "Where a defendant is charged with a capital offence or an offence punishable with life imprisonment and he is not represented by a legal practitioner, the court shall appoint a legal practitioner for his defence."

The operative word utilized in the above provisions is "shall". In statutory interpretation, it is an established canon that "shall" denotes a command; it imposes a mandatory duty, leaving zero room for judicial discretion or a defendant's personal whims.

Thus, when Kanu’s legal team stepped aside, Justice Omotosho’s question should not have been, "Do you want me to assign a lawyer to you?" Instead, the Judge should have immediately made an unyielding decision to appoint a lawyer for him. Why? Because Kanu’s refusal of counsel is invalid as a matter of law, pure and simple.

The Supreme Court has repeatedly held that the presence of counsel in capital trials is a condition precedent to the validity of the trial. In Josiah v. State (1985), the apex court held that in capital offenses, a defendant must be represented by counsel at all stages of the trial. This was reaffirmed forcefully in Ganiyu v. State (2013), where the Supreme Court made it abundantly clear that a trial conducted for a capital offense without legal representation is a nullity, as its absence completely robs the trial court of its jurisdiction.

Granted that Justice Omotosho may have felt justified in forging ahead, given Kanu’s articulate disposition. Yet, as a matter of law, lay competence is not a substitute for counsel. A capital trial involves intricate rules of evidence, procedure, and navigation of highly complex constitutional and statutory frameworks unique to capital offenses trial.

So, by permitting Kanu to navigate this labyrinth alone, the court allowed a fundamental constitutional infraction that may very well void the entire outcome of the trial.

RIBADU’S SECURITY APPARATUS EXISTS TO SERVE NORTHERN ISLAMIC INTERESTS

That is not a conspiracy theory. It is what the evidence shows.

Nigeria's security apparatus has more counterterrorism technology and coordination infrastructure than ever before. In January 2024, the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps received brand new surveillance drones and advanced communications equipment. Eleven months later, in December 2024, the NSCDC dedicated its Counter Terrorism Command and Control Center at national headquarters in Abuja — with much fanfare, a cabinet minister in attendance — described by the Commandant General himself as "a state-of-the-art hub for communication, coordination and intelligence sharing which would facilitate rapid response and precision in counter terrorism."

Rapid response. Precision. Counter terrorism.

So where is the rapid response when Christians are being massacred?

June 2025, Yelewata, Benue State. Advance warning received three weeks before the attack. A second warning the day before. A military base less than one kilometer away. Security forces retreated. Nearly 300 Christians burned alive in market stalls.

March 2026, Ngoshe, Borno State. Three hundred Nigerian soldiers stationed in the town. They withdrew before the first shot. Over 100 killed. 300 abducted into slavery. The government had been paying displaced Christians in Cameroon to return. They came back and were massacred.

Christmas 2023. Easter 2024. Warning after warning. Promise after promise. Body after body.

The technology exists. The warnings arrive. The forces stand down.

Now watch what happens when the same apparatus turns in the other direction.

The Nigerian government, with no hearing or deliberation, unilaterally declared IPOB — the Indigenous People of Biafra — a terrorist organization. That designation has been challenged by Nigeria's own courts. It is not recognized by any other government on earth. No international body. No Western ally. No African Union member state. Nigeria stands alone in that designation.

Unlike the jihad groups in the North the government insists on calling "bandits" and "herders," IPOB hasn't slaughtered villages, burned churches and schools, enslaved or kidnapped anyone, or displaced millions. But the government calls them terrorists, and that designation is enough.

Because with IPOB labeled terrorists, the CT-C4's counterterrorism mandate legally covers the Southeast. The surveillance drones that never seem to spot Fulani militia movements in Benue have been deployed over Igbo communities in Enugu, Imo, Anambra, and Abia. The rapid response that never materializes for burning Christians in the Middle Belt has been fully activated against political activists in Igbo-majority states.

This is not hypothetical. Federal security forces have conducted multiple military operations in the Southeast under the IPOB terrorism designation — operations with no equivalent ever mounted against Fulani militias that have killed tens of thousands and displaced millions.

The Fulani militia gets a stand-down. The Igbo get a drone overhead and a terrorism designation their own courts have questioned.

That is not a malfunction. It appears to me that is the system working exactly as designed.

Now ask who designed it.

The NSCDC Counter Terrorism Unit operates inside a Northern Muslim-dominated command structure. Its Commandant General — Dr. Ahmed Abubakar Audi, son of an Islamic cleric — was reappointed by President Tinubu in February 2026, bypassing the established succession protocol that would have transferred authority to the most senior Deputy Commandant General, who is Igbo. Senior NSCDC officers called the situation "deeply troubling."

Audi reports to National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu. The man who publicly calls jihadist militants his "brothers." Who coordinated the arming of Miyetti Allah Fulani militias with AK-47 rifles under a federal security operation. Who personally signed a $9 million Washington lobbying contract to suppress the Nigeria genocide narrative.

The man responsible for Nigeria's counterterrorism coordination arms the Fulani militias slaughtering Christians. Oversees the apparatus that receives advance warnings of those attacks. And his forces stand down every single time.

While those same forces remain ready — legally authorized, technologically equipped — to move against the Igbo at any moment, under a terrorism designation no one else in the world recognizes.

Now add Turkey.

On Christmas Day 2025, President Trump bombed ISIS in Sokoto. The following day, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi — the Northern cleric who publicly defends Boko Haram and ISWAP and serves as the government's appointed mediator with jihadist groups — issued a public demand: Nigeria must halt all military cooperation with the United States immediately. "If Nigeria wants military assistance," Gumi declared, "China, Turkey, and Pakistan can do the job effectively."

Within weeks Tinubu was on a plane to Ankara.

January 2026 — nine agreements signed with Erdogan including a Military Cooperation Protocol. April 2026 — Nigeria's Defense Minister confirms: 200 Nigerian special forces to Turkey for training. A permanent Turkish training facility on Nigerian soil.

The organization most likely to staff that facility is SADAT International Defense Consultancy — founded by 23 Turkish officers expelled from their military for Salafist ideology. Their stated mission: helping the Islamic world achieve military superpower status. Their founder declared in 2019 that SADAT exists to "pave the way for the long-awaited Mahdi." He specifically named Nigeria as a country where jihadist groups deserve protection from African governments. The US Defense Department accused SADAT of training ISIS and al-Qaeda fighters.

An NSCDC Counter Terrorism Unit operating inside a Northern Muslim-dominated command structure, under a Commandant General who bypassed Igbo succession, reporting to an NSA who publicly embraces jihadist militants as brothers, equipped with surveillance technology, and now being expanded through a Turkish military training pipeline founded by Salafist officers whose stated mission is preparing the world for the Mahdi — is not a unit whose personnel composition you would expect to be transparent or friendly to Christian communities or the Igbo people.

It is Islamic conquest infrastructure wearing a security agency's uniform.

And it is being upgraded.

If you have information about the staffing, operations, or command structure of the NSCDC Counter Terrorism Unit — or about how this apparatus has been deployed in the Southeast — we want to hear from you.

@PeterObi Absolutely spot on, speaking truth to power is not an insult

[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

Coping with the systematic collapse of our institutions.

When the controversy surrounding the removal of former Chief Justice of Nigeria, Walter Onnoghen, unfolded, I expressed a concern to a friend: that the greatest damage might not be immediate, but the message it sends about the sanctity and independence of our institutions to the world.

Strong economies are built on trust. Investors can manage security risks, policy risks, and even market risks. What they fear most is uncertainty in the rule of law and a judiciary that is perceived to be vulnerable to political pressure.

Today, many Nigerians have lost confidence in systems that should protect them. Businesses increasingly request that their contracts be governed by foreign jurisdictions because they have greater confidence in those institutions than in our own. That should concern every patriot.

We must never sacrifice our sacred institutions on the altar of politics. Nations rise when institutions are stronger than individuals. "The federal High Court Judgement ordering the de-registration of the ADC and other political parties is just one of those activities that further reduces the common man's trust in our legal systems" it should be reversed.

I pledge that we will restore the dignity, independence, and integrity of the Judiciary. The common man must have a voice. The business community must be protected from legal uncertainty and intimidation. Justice must be impartial, accessible, and respected by all.

To our judges, legal luminaries, senior advocates, and lawyers: this is your moment. Rise, defend the rule of law, take back your country!

What does CAN stand for again?

Christian Association of Nigeria? Or maybe Cowards Amassing Naira? Or Crooks Astray in Nigeria? After this week, it’s genuinely hard to tell.

🔥🔥🔥

Black Sunday. Big solemn statement. Lots of language about “forces of evil” and “resilience” and the urgent need for prayer.

The wolf is eating the sheep.

CAN is telling the sheep to look the other direction.

Jesus called out the Pharisees for their phylacteries — those little scripture boxes they strapped to their foreheads so the crowd could see how holy they were. Made them extra wide. Made sure they caught the light. Look at us. Look at how we stand for God.

Meanwhile the sheep were being slaughtered and they were counting the offerings.

CAN has mastered the phylactery.

The statements. The solemn observances. The Black Sunday press releases with all the right words in all the right order. The interfaith banquets. The titles and the platforms and the cameras.

But Paul told you what this fight actually is.

Ephesians 6:12. Written from a prison cell. “We do not wrestle with flesh and blood — we wrestle with principalities, with powers, with rulers of darkness, with spiritual forces of wickedness in high places.”

That verse is not a permission slip to stay vague. It is a command to go deeper. To identify the spirit behind the spear. To name it. To call it out. To confront it.

That is what spiritual leaders are for.

The spirit behind the slaughter in Nigeria has a name. It has a doctrine, a throne, and a 222-year track record. It is not hiding. The men who serve it announce it from the rooftops and write it in their founding documents.

It is called Islamic Jihad.

For some reason, CAN cannot say those two words. So instead, the flock gets “forces of evil” and “resilience” and a prayer for President Tinubu’s wisdom and determination. Resilience. Unity. Prayer.

Look over here, sheep. Not over there at the wolf devouring your brothers and sisters.

That is not a shepherd. That is a distraction.

John 10: “The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away.” The hired hand sees the wolf and runs. Sometimes straight into the arms of the government that feeds it.

Jesus called this crowd whitewashed tombs. Brood of vipers. I’ll add: Cowards. Hirelings. And in too many cases — bloodsucking dragons in a collar, more worried about the offering plate than the blood on the floor.

Nigeria’s Christians are not dying for lack of prayer. They are dying because the men God positioned between them and the wolf keep turning them around to face the other way.

Paul named the powers and put on the armor. Jesus walked into the temple with a whip.

Will the real shepherds please stand up?

The Commendable Act of Nigerian Artists at the World Cup

Nigeria’s absence from the World Cup, as I previously stated, stems not from a lack of talent but from a conspicuous deficiency in political leadership that has failed to create an enabling environment for talent development.

This assertion is underscored by two notable occurrences during the tournament: the vibrant participation and impressive performances of Nigerian artists, and the presence of numerous Nigerians representing other nations on the field. These observations present a significant imperative for Nigeria’s political leaders to actively foster an environment in which the nation’s youth can fully realize their potential.

Furthermore, Davido’s impactful gesture in drawing global attention to Nigeria’s security challenges warrants commendation. He prominently displayed the names of schoolchildren who had been held captive for an extended period, advocating for their safe return. By utilizing his international platform, Davido effectively highlighted Nigeria’s security crisis, transcending mere entertainment. He appeared in a custom black leather jacket emblazoned with the message “BRING THEM HOME,” accented with green buttons bearing the names of 39 schoolchildren and 7 teachers recently abducted by bandits in the Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State.

The pervasive insecurity in Nigeria merits international scrutiny, particularly given the government’s apparent inability to effectively address the situation. Nevertheless, the prospect of a revitalized Nigeria remains achievable. -PO
