Celebrating My Eldest Brother at 75
Today, 30th August 2026, I celebrate my eldest brother, Dominic Ositadimma Obi, who turns 75. I celebrate him not merely because he is my elder brother or because of his age, but because he is an exemplary human being.
When I was Governor of Anambra State for eight years, he never came to my office or the Governor’s Lodge for a day seeking favours, as many might have expected. He is a planner and contractor who builds homes for people, yet not once did he ask me for a government contract.
Whenever we met, he would warmly embrace me and tell me that he was fine. He would then solemnly remind me to keep doing what I promised the people and never bring a bad name to the family and my community. He would tell me that whatever difficulties he was going through, many others were worse off, and that I should do my best for society.
I later came to understand that this was not peculiar to him alone. My family members had actually held a meeting and resolved that none of them would take advantage of my position as Governor. They decided that whatever good name I was building for the Obi family and Agulu must be protected. The same principle extended to my children.
Today, at 75, my beloved brother remains deeply concerned about Nigeria. Whenever we speak, he is full of prayers and good wishes. He constantly reminds me that if I have the opportunity to serve Nigeria, I should do so with honesty, integrity, and the interest of the people at heart.
Brother Dom, I thank God for the gift of your life and for the example you have set for our family. Your integrity, humility, contentment, and sense of responsibility are qualities worthy of celebration.
May God Almighty, who has graciously been with you all these years, grant you good health, His abundant grace, and blessings.
Happy 75th birthday, my dearest brother. -PO
Illegality and crime have now been enshrined into the Nigerian constitution thereby setting us back at least another decade.
Forgery is a crime.
Submitting false credentials is an illegality.
Removing them as grounds for challenging election results is promtes crime.
You see how Alex Otti is the standard today?
That's exactly how Peter Obi was the standard in his day.
Alex Otti will try to become president one day and the campaigners of calumny will come and say he did nothing.
Awon eranko.
Happening now:
“Since November last year, the President approved a salary increase for the military and paramilitary personnel, and it has been in the news everywhere. The military high command has continued to thank the President at every given opportunity, but this is August 2026 and they are yet to implement it. It’s as if it is a sc@m. This is Nigeria we served for 35years, the system is wrong.”
— Ex-serviceman speaks out this morning at ongoing protest over the non-implementation of consequential adjustments to their pensions.
I know Nigerians don’t like to read, so let me help you:
DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN THIS. YOU WON’T WIN.
They put “up to $100,000” front and centre, then buried the terms and conditions where you’d actually have to READ to discover that NIGERIA IS NOT ELIGIBLE.
So you’ll spend days making a film, submit it, and then find out you were never eligible in the first place.
This is exactly why we stick to @SuperteamEarn .
In 2024, I ran an experiment in Apa-Agatu in Benue State.
I supported some village children there with Nelson Apochi to help them prepare for JAMB using Educare and teaching support. They all did well and are excelling today.
This boy, Oyishima Daniel Adewebo, was one of them. He scored 290 in JAMB and is currently studying Medicine and Surgery at the University of Abuja.
He just shared his first-year result, and he got all A’s.
It was my riskiest intervention because, at the time, over 500 people had been murdered in the community by herdsmen.
We have lots of hidden talents in villages that we need to discover and help shine.
You know that episode of Rick & Morty where Rick reveals that there is an entire civilisation of people living inside his car battery who don't know that the sole purpose of their whole existence is to generate electricity to power a mad scientist's wacky space adventure car?
That is where Nigeria is right now, and that's why I am militant to the point of putting myself in trouble by talking about why Nigerians need to stage the most bloody and violent revolution Africa has ever witnessed. Because entire future branches of history are being wiped out because young Nigerians are trapped in an economy whose job is to make white people and a tiny Nigerian minority rich at the expense of 230,000,000 people like this.
This 19 year-old kid already has the sagging shoulders of a 47 year-old man with the world's weight on him, and he has already learned to not expect anything good to ever happen to him in life. All it took to show him a fork in his future trajectory was a fucking $47 tile cutting machine, and he's now going to hold on to this new opportunity and make a better life for himself - but there are literally millions of him out there that will never meet a benefactor, or that don't even have the skills needed to maximise this opportunity.
There is only ONE entity in any African country that has the power to carry out interventions like this in people's lives on a large scale - the state! A content creator can change one life like this and get viewed 10 million times, but a government can change 10 million lives like this without batting an eyelid! Only the government has the transformational capital and the incentive to do this in millions of lives!
That is why being led by people who don't work for you is a literal life-and-death matter! When we talk about neo-colonialism, this is what the fuck it is about! When you have a government installed by foreigners, which allocates billions of Naira in public revenues to enrich foreign intelligence assets like Gilbert Chagoury via transnational corruption schemes like the nonexistent "coastal highway" - this is the result!
Nigeria's money is not being used to invest in the lives and betterment of Nigerian people! It is being used to enrich white men in Washington DC who are already richer than God, with a fraction going to their local collaborators in Abuja! This kid and millions like him are the direct victims! Their future possibilities and bloodlines are being extinguished with poverty so that Peter McBillionaireStein and Matthew Von WhiteManBerg in Manhattan and London can increase their Q3 dividend payout by 15%. Neo-colonialism is not a victimless crime!
You are all living inside Rick Sanchez's car battery!
I listed my all assets, both here and Uk. The Code of Conduct said they would go and investigate and they did.
I left $150 million dollars,Can any governor come out to say he saved $15m in treasury account?
Do we appreciate honesty in Nigeria?
— Peter Obi
Seun: I’ll like you to clarify this, and probably lay it to rest the narrative about you never building a school during your time as governor in Anambra state. Mr Peter Obi, did you build any school? If not, why not?
Peter Obi: Seun, I built more than schools!
Here are a few of the schools mentioned by Peter Obi
1. Odumegwu Ojukwu University; Faculty of Law, Faculty of Agriculture
2. Built the fastest teaching hospital in Nigeria.
3. When I became governor, there was no single school of nursing, Mid mifery, Lab science, or Lab tech in Anambra state, by the time I left office, there were 10.
People are suffering economic hardship. Healthcare issues are bankrupting families. Our future as a nation is uncertain, but your preacher thinks fictional Superman is a demon. That is his preaching priority.
I now understand why this guy made this video.
No be say them force una.
Una go apply, fill form, whine guarantors to sign for you, transport yourselves go depot, collect uniform begin dey call me "mamanka" and "bloody civilian" dey talk nonsense.
But make I dey grateful.
Better go collect your gratitude for barracks.

DEAR OPPOSITION — UNIFY UNDER PETER OBI
This is for the Labour Party stalwart. The PDP loyalist who has not crossed
over. The NNPP supporter. The ADC newcomer. The independent who cannot find a home.
I am not here to tell you your party failed. I am here to tell you the arithmetic.
Tinubu was declared winner 2023 with 36 percent of the vote. The opposition together took the rest.
The math has never been the problem. The math has always favoured us. The problem is that we ran three campaigns where we needed to run one — and the man who was said to came first in that split is the
man currently mortgaging your children's future.
2027 will not be won by the party with the loudest supporters. It will be won by the side
that learns to assemble itself.
Peter Obi is not the candidate of one camp. He is the candidate with the strongest record on the ballot, the broadest appeal across the regions, and the only campaign in 2023 that took Lagos from the man who claims to own it.
Unifying under him is not surrender. It is strategy. And unifying does not mean dissolving your party, your platform, or your principles. Your senator can still be your senator. Your governor can still be your governor. What we are asking is one
shared answer at the top of the ballot — and a shared commitment to govern together when we
win.
If you are a party operative, an organiser, a fundraiser, a strategist sitting inside
one of the opposition parties — we have a coordination channel for you. Not to replace what you are doing. To connect it.
The other side is unified. They are unified by stolen public money, but they are unified. We have to be unified by something stronger.
Visit https://t.co/VWJfhLpJZZ. Bring your party. Bring your network. Let us assemble.
Arise, O Compatriots.
This is Mr. Benjamin, and he is in charge of assessments for the International STEM Olympiad.
He said that this year's exam was the toughest ever, and for our boys to get gold, it means they are far ahead of their peers.
Nigeria has the brightest untapped brains globally.
More good news.
Don Anele Munachimso also won gold in Science.
He is the best in world science.
Remember, he is the best in IGCSE Chemistry in Nigeria.
The investment is worth it.
