Subsidy is gone ooo
They said subsidy was taking a chunk of borrowing but they are still borrowing heavily and they can't fund budget they keep carrying over budget cycles
Buhari funded budget ooo and paid subsidy oooo
They claim they are sharing the money to states we can't see the money ooo
No b juju be Dat!
So why allow the people suffer subsidy removal and your are still heavily borrowing and budgets are not funded
Contractors are owed!
I supported subsidy removal because we thought they will be accountable but the pain on the people is too much while their politicians are enjoying
No measure to help the people.i predicted rightly subsidy will cause plenty chaos for the people in my subsidy debate.
Someone was challenged Peter Obi to a debate. According to him, he has a lot to say.
E no reach 2 days, a lady was found dead in his house. And she was reportedly naked when she was discovered.
And that was how debate take full the man mouth now. He go debate tire.
There's nothing you'll tell me, Peter Obi get sure plug for Ijebu.
A doctor reportedly kept a newborn infant alive by manually using an AMBU bag from 11:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m., refusing to give up even after others had lost hope. Explaining why, the doctor said the baby was a twin and didn't want his brother to grow up without him, so he sacrificed his sleep to keep fighting for the child's life.
A true act of dedication and compassion. ❤️👏
The Role of the Diaspora African in Sustainable Development
On Friday, July 10, 2026, I had the honour of delivering the keynote address at Mandela Hall, African Union Permanent Observer Mission to the United Nations in New York, on _The Role of the Diaspora African in Sustainable Development across Africa.
Africa is a continent of immense riches. Indeed, it is the richest continent in the world, not only because of its vast mineral resources but also because of its greatest asset, its people. It is the second largest continent by landmass, after Asia, covering more than 30 million square kilometres. It is also the second most populous continent, with over 1.5 billion people. Significantly, more than one billion of these are young people in their productive years, making Africa home to the largest youthful workforce in the world.
When this demographic advantage is combined with nearly one billion hectares of arable land, about 60% of which remains uncultivated, it becomes clear that Africa possesses everything required not only to feed itself but also to become the food capital of the world.
Regrettably, despite this enormous potential, Africa remains home to the largest concentration of the world’s poorest people. Of the approximately 800 million people living in extreme poverty globally, nearly 60% are in Africa. That is about 480 million people, with Nigeria and the Democratic Republic of the Congo among the countries most affected. In other words, nearly one in every three Africans lives in extreme poverty. Likewise, in multidimensional poverty, Africa continues to bear the greatest burden.
The question, therefore, is simple. With all these advantages, why has Africa not been able to lift its people out of poverty?
It means there is a missing link. That missing link is Competent Leadership with Capacity, Compassion, Character, and Commitment to good governance.
What Africa needs is leadership that will rise to the challenge and drive the continent in the right direction. This means competent leadership with character, capacity, compassion and commitment to begin turning the continent around. When we get leadership right, everything else begins to change. We start realising our true potential.
So, what is the role of the Diaspora African in this journey?
You have an enormous role to play.
Because you live in societies where institutions largely work, where democracy is strengthened by accountability and where systems function more effectively, you have both an opportunity and a responsibility to help build Africa. It is time to become stronger advocates for good governance. Even where you cannot vote, your voices matter. They should be heard both at home and abroad whenever things are going wrong on our continent. Stand firmly for what is right. Speak truth to the leaders who visit you. Let them know where they are getting it wrong. That is what some of us have continued to do.
The contribution of the African diaspora extends far beyond advocacy. History teaches us that many of the world’s great economic transformations were driven, in part, by their diaspora communities.
Japan offers one example. Following the Meiji Restoration of 1868, the country embraced modernisation and benefited immensely from Japanese scholars, professionals and citizens who studied and worked abroad, especially in Germany, before returning home to drive the technological transformation for which Japan is admired today.
China presents another remarkable example. It was under Deng Xiaoping’s reforms, beginning in 1978, that China embraced education, innovation and global engagement. These reforms created opportunities for the Chinese diaspora to contribute significantly to the country’s extraordinary economic transformation. In 1980, China had more people living in poverty than Africa. Today, China has reduced extreme poverty dramatically, while Africa continues to struggle with the challenge.
@lowestleo He has to end that marriage. That woman has no single respect for him. He should end it at once. What a shameful thing to do by the wife. Since she values her family more, let her go back and stay with them!
Suspension of Examination Fees: A Victory for the People
I received the welcome news of the suspension of the newly introduced examination fees with relief. This is a victory for the Nigerian people.
While I commend the authorities for listening to the widespread public outcry and suspending the policy, it must be said that the fee was an unnecessary burden that should never have been introduced at this time of great hardship, when we should be doing everything possible to invest in basic education and reduce the millions of out-of-school children in Nigeria.
At a time when many families are struggling to make ends meet, access to education should be expanded, not restricted. Education is a fundamental right and a public good, not a source of government revenue.
Imposing multiple fees at the basic education level risks denying many children their right to education. At that stage, the State has a duty to invest in educating and preparing its citizens for productive lives, not to erect financial barriers that keep them out of school.
True leadership is demonstrated not only by making decisions but also by having the humility to reverse policies that impose unnecessary hardship on the people. Many other anti-people policies deserve similar reconsideration.
I thank the citizens, parents, and advocacy groups whose voices made this reversal possible.

The Unending Killings in Benue and Plateau- Worrisome.
The tragic news of yet another round of killings in Benue and Plateau States is both painful and deeply disturbing. The reported murder of at least sixteen innocent Nigerians in the Otukpo-Nobi community of Benue State, alongside the horrific killing of nine members of the same family, a two-month-old baby, in Riyom Local Government Area of Plateau State, once again reminds us that the relentless cycle of bloodshed in parts of our country has persisted for far too long.
For years, families in Benue, Plateau and other communities across Nigeria have lived under the constant shadow of fear, violence and displacement. Mothers have buried their children, children have become orphans overnight, farmers have abandoned their lands, and entire communities have been left devastated. We cannot continue to accept this tragic cycle as though it were normal. It is not.
The primary responsibility of any government is the protection of lives and property. Every Nigerian life is sacred, and every life lost is one too many. These are not mere statistics; they are fathers, mothers, children, breadwinners and future leaders whose dreams have been violently cut short.
The time has come to move beyond routine condemnations after every attack. Nigerians deserve a security architecture that is proactive rather than reactive, driven by intelligence, rapid response and accountability. Those responsible for these atrocities must be identified, arrested and prosecuted. The culture of impunity must end.
I extend my heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families and to the governments and people of Benue and Plateau States. I pray that God grants comfort to all who mourn, healing to the injured, and strength to every community struggling to rebuild after these repeated tragedies.
This is not about politics; it is about humanity. We must summon the collective will to secure our nation and restore hope to our people. No country can develop when its citizens live in fear, and no society can prosper when innocent blood continues to flow unchecked.

Seyi Tinubu flaunts in the club every weekend with luxury cars.
Habibat Tinubu lives a glamorous lifestyle in the U.S. She bought an apartment in NYC for over 2 million dollars when she was just 22.
Zainab Tinubu has no work we know of, yet she also bought an apartment in New York when she was just 25.
Your entire family siphons off Nigeria’s wealth. The only time you are seen helping the poor is when you want to use them for political gain.
We must remove this family from Aso Rock whether they like it or not.
With sadness in our hearts and gratitude to God for a life well spent , we announce the call to glory of Nkechi Stella Rhodes-Vivour, ( Nee Waboso).
A loving wife, devoted mother and grandmother. The epitome of Love. She will be sorely missed. May her beautiful soul rest in perfect peace.
Funeral arrangements will be announced shortly.

For the family.
At Sam Mbakwe airport Owerri, a billboard has been put up for our star boy, Egejurum Onyedikachi, to celebrate him as he arrived in Owerri today.
He is 11 years old and the world’s best in the Primary category for Mathematics.
He is so good that he finished the exam and fell asleep.
What a star!
We Lost Him 💔😭
My heart is shattered beyond words
Our little brother, 13-year-old David Raymond, has gone home to be with the Lord after fighting for his life for 18 painful days
David was not a soldier
He was not a criminal
He was only a child whose only "offense" was being born into a Christian family in Plateau State
On that dark night in Kawel village, Bokkos LGA, terrorists stormed his home while the family slept
His father, Raymond Maichibi, stood between death and his son, hoping to save him with his own body, but he was shot and killed
His mother, Nanlop Raymond, hid inside the bedroom, praying for mercy, but the bullets found her too
David tried to escape, but an AK-47 bullet ripped through his back and stomach, leaving his intestines exposed
As doctors struggled day and night to save this innocent child, his parents were already lying in a mass grave alongside 20 other Christians murdered simply because of their faith
The family could not bring themselves to tell David that he was now an orphan
They hoped he would recover first
But today, that painful secret no longer matters
David has gone to join his father and mother in eternity
Before he died, his trembling voice still echoed from his hospital bed
"They came in the night... My father tried to protect me and they shot him... My mother was hiding when they shot her too... I ran and they shot me in the back..."
How many more children must die before the world listens
How many more Christian families must be erased before our tears are seen
The silence of the world has become another weapon against us
"Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." — Matthew 5:10
David's blood cries out from the ground
His story must not die with him
I plead with the Church around the world, do not stop praying for the persecuted Church in Nigeria
Remember us before the throne of God
Stand with us while there is still someone left to save
May the Lord comfort every grieving heart and may little David Raymond rest in the everlasting arms of Jesus until we meet again
Rest in peace, precious child
Your suffering is over
Your crown awaits you 💔😭🙏
