THE MIDNIGHT MASS OF THE DEAD

Long time ago in a quiet part of Coal Camp, Enugu, there lived a widow everybody called Mama Ruth. For many years, she followed the same daily habit: waking up before daybreak, wrapping her rosary around her fingers, and walking to

@username_kd @HananyaNaftali What we make of that is that Israel in it's entirety, from Judea and Samaria to Gaza is Israeli land. All those Orthoman imported arabs with no history and connection to that land should vacate asap.

@General_Somto Nigerians are st**idly emotional. How come no one is asking how she was defrauded?

Our National Tragedies are Resources for National Transformation

I have received many calls and text messages from patriotic Nigerians who were annoyed that an Arise News anchor wanted me to answer questions about the 1966 coups, which were national tragedies. I reassured those patriots that, as a presidential candidate, I am ready and able to answer any questions about anything relating to Nigeria. I have a commitment to serve the people, not to hide from them.

As I travel across Nigeria and listen to Nigerians of all ethnic and religious identities, I have had opportunities to reflect on the many tragedies we have experienced in Nigeria, including the 1966 coups, the civil war, and the various mass violence that have plagued different parts of the country.

My view is that we could have avoided these tragedies if we had entrenched and implemented laws justly. These tragedies are the result of leadership failure. It is our responsibility to understand these failures and fix them.
The failure of leadership to guarantee all its citizens equal rights and freedoms, and to enforce the fundamental rights in the constitution without fear or favour.
We must focus on learning from our past. Mistakes in history are not fatal. They can become opportunities for transformation.

This happened in Japan. The Japanese miracle that took place between 1920 and 1970 was a product of patriotic leaders who used the Japanese trauma of colonial rule to drive miraculous economic development. South Korea followed Japan by weaponising cruel experiences under Japan to develop a policy framework of a developmental state, and became an economic giant under the inspiration of General Park from 1960. The same applies to China under Deng Xiaoping, who reinvented China from the tragedies of Chairman Mao’s Cultural Revolution and the many deaths of that ill-fated policy. Today, China is the second-largest economy in the world. What a transformation. That is our vision. That should also be our history.

For me, my responsibility as Nigerian President is to turn the pains and tragedies of the past into opportunities to make Nigeria united, stable, and prosperous.
We need a leadership that is not trapped in the past, a leadership that focuses on what binds us together rather than what divides us. At this point, we need a leader who believes in the destiny and future of Nigeria, a leader who publicly proclaims that all parts of Nigeria abound in human and natural resources, and that all parts of Nigeria can become productive and prosperous.

The difference in human history is having leaders who do not maximise those pasts for selfish ambition but leverage them to build a prosperous future for all.
Even in Africa, we can learn from Rwanda on how a recent terrible experience is being used to advance national unity and prosperity. We can do the same for Nigeria.

I am ready to speak about what the voters consider important. I am ready to comfort and console. I am ready to lead from the front as we work to turn away from the ugly past and into a future where no Nigerian will suffer on account of his or her ethnicity, religion, or social pedigree. Our past is important, but our past is not our destiny. Our future is what we do with our past. Our past is our resource for national transformation. We are ready to transform Nigeria.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

"Philosopher, are you there?"
Those words have lived with me for years.
I still remember that weekend in 2013, when I returned home from my first year in the university. My Popsy was alive, healthy, happy, and full of his usual warmth. That evening,

Every struggle I overcame, every responsibility I carried, every effort I made to lift the family — that has been my answer to you.
I know I didn't answer that night...
But Popsy, if somehow you can hear me now:
Yes, Popsy. Your Philosopher is here.

My dear well-meaning Nigerians,

Our season has finally come.

The time we have waited for, prayed for, and worked for is here. Our principal, Peter Obi, is stepping onto the ballot once again in 2027, not as a politician chasing power, but as a servant ready to lead with the fear of God, compassion, integrity, and character. This is not just another election. This is Nigeria’s opportunity to rise.

Yes, the enemies of a greater Nigeria will throw everything at him. They will dig up old lies, manufacture new ones, and most predictably, they will try to divide us along religious and tribal lines. Do not be surprised. That is their only weapon. But we are wiser now.

Please, I beg you with all my heart: let us be smart. Do not follow them into the gutter. Do not trade insults. Do not allow their provocations to turn brother against brother or sister against sister. Instead, let us educate them with patience and truth. Let us speak about the urgent need for unity, the fight against injustice, the rebuilding of our country, and the total eradication of corruption that has held us hostage for too long.

Let us keep our eyes on the real issue: the bad governance of the Tinubu-APC administration. Let us calmly, relentlessly, and truthfully expose the massive corruption, the reckless spending, the unbearable cost of living, and the failure to secure lives and livelihoods. Share the facts online and offline. Speak to your family, your friends, your market women, your taxi drivers, your students, your pastors and imams. Let every Nigerian hear the truth in plain language.

Nigeria can be fixed.
Nigerians can be the best in the world.
We have the talent. We have the spirit. What we need now is competent leadership that unites us for prosperity.

Peter Obi’s unique style of governance is simple but revolutionary: lead by example, cut the cost of government, live modestly, and put the people first. He has done it before in Anambra. He will do it again for the entire nation. Under his leadership, we will not be divided by tribe or faith; we will be united by purpose, progress, and the shared dream of a Nigeria that works for every single citizen.

So ignore the distractions.
Face the government squarely.
Show the world why Peter Obi is the best choice for 2027 and beyond.

Let us rise together, not as Christians or Muslims, not as Igbos, Yorubas or Hausas, but as proud Nigerians who have chosen hope over despair, unity over division, and excellence over mediocrity.

The season has come.
Let us seize it with wisdom, with love, and with unshakeable focus.

Together, we will build the Nigeria of our dreams.

God bless you.

A New Nigeria is POssible ✅️

[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

Where we are, national unity is no longer optional; it is a national necessity. We must rise above ethnicity, religion, region, and political divisions to recover the soul of our nation.

With unity and effective leadership, Nigeria can become a productive and prosperous nation once again. We must deliberately support agriculture and manufacturing so they become the highest contributors to our Gross Domestic Product. Special strategic attention must be given to unlocking the enormous agricultural potential of Northern Nigeria and connecting it to industrial production across the federation. We must move decisively from a nation of consumption to a nation of production.
We can no longer afford policies that foreclose our youth.

With competent, compassionate and transformative leadership, we can defeat insecurity, reduce corruption, create jobs, tame inflation, improve education, and restore hope to millions of Nigerians. Our youths must no longer be viewed as problems to manage, but as assets to empower. Our women must no longer be neglected, but included as equal partners in nation-building.

I remain convinced that a new Nigeria is possible, a Nigeria that is united, secure, productive, inclusive, and governed by justice and fairness. Let us therefore move forward with courage, with unity, and with our collective resolve. -PO

"Some men change their party for the sake of their principles; others change their principles for the sake of their party." Winston Churchill

Today, May 9th, I attended the 1st convention of my latest party, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) in Abuja, Nigeria. The convention was successful and continued to show the resilience of Nigerians to change

I express my sincere appreciation and gratitude to the NDC family, led by the distinguished Senator Henry Seriake Dickson, for inviting us and for the generosity of spirit with which they have accommodated us at this critical moment in our national journey.

I also wish to express profound gratitude to the African Democratic Congress(ADC), particularly Distinguished Senator David Mark, for providing a democratic platform and showing uncommon understanding when the ongoing litigation forced us out of the Labour Party and the New Nigeria People's Party, NNPP respectively. That spirit of solidarity must remain the foundation upon which a better Nigeria will be built.

Today, the most painful aspect of our political existence is that many who once benefited from democratic governance have now become willing accessories to the destruction of democracy itself. Those who once fought for justice now openly celebrate electoral injustice. Those who once spoke against impunity now defend coercion, manipulation, intimidation, and outright political gangsterism, especially against opposition voices. What we are witnessing is not politics; it is a systematic assault on democracy and the will of the people.

Nigeria today stands at a dangerous crossroads. Our democracy is under severe threat. Our nation is drifting without direction, and our people are passing through immense suffering. Across the world, Nigeria is increasingly described as a failing and disgraced nation. This is not the destiny God ordained for our great country. It was not always so, and it must never be allowed to remain so.

Across virtually every recognised indicator of good governance - accountability, political stability, rule of law, control of corruption, government effectiveness, regulatory quality, and the separation of powers - Nigeria continues to record alarming failures. The institutions that should protect the people are weakening daily, while the burden on ordinary citizens grows heavier with each passing moment.

Today, over 140 million Nigerians live in multidimensional poverty. Tens of millions of young people remain unemployed or underemployed. Inflation continues to crush families. Businesses are shutting down. Farmers can no longer safely access their farms. Communities live in fear. In this month alone, hundreds of innocent Nigerians have lost their lives to insecurity, while many others have been kidnapped, displaced, or thrown deeper into poverty.

The most heartbreaking question confronting us is this: Who consoles the grieving mother whose child was abducted on the way to school? Who speaks for the father who can no longer feed his family despite working every day? Who defends the young Nigerian whose dreams have been destroyed by a nation that rewards connections over competence and corruption over character?

Our present tragedy is not accidental. It is the direct consequence of years of deliberate sabotage by a political class that prospers by dividing the people and weakening the nation. Nigeria is not a poor country; rather, we are being looted into poverty. We have abundant human and natural resources, yet we remain trapped in deprivation because leadership has failed to place the common good above personal interest.

Our choice as a people is therefore clear: whether to surrender to despair and national decline, or to summon the courage to rescue our country and rebuild it on the foundations of unity, equity, justice, competence, and productivity.
