@DavidHundeyin Big fan of your work,seen the latest gmo disaster with ginger in Nigeria and other food items but how the hell are they influencing the kind of sex you enjoy? No way that's possible, is there?
@guzu_p Ahhhh!! Shey this one na cruise what is this? This is really fucked up man no man should ever be this emasculated ever. Just imagine if the roles were reversed twitter would hold the man's neck and never let go
@maxvayshia Everyday I hate this country a little more. I'm just trying to imagine something like this happening in Japan or America and it pains me that my countrymen have no value or worth even in their own eyes.
During that Christland school girl saga, one of my tweets was mass reported. Twitter then restricted my account and gave me the option to delete the 'offending' tweet to regain access.
I had chaotic internal deliberations over it for some time and in the end, I deleted it.
Immediately after, I felt myself losing virtue
I felt gagged
I felt like a coward
felt I had betrayed myself
felt I had cowered in the face of consequence
felt my illustrious slave owning ancestors look down on me in disappointment regret and contempt.
Couldn't shake the feeling, so I asked myself
"What's the worst thing that can happen if I make that same tweet again"
"You lose an account with 14k followers"
Was the answer
Small price to pay
So I made the tweet again.
A couple hours later, the account got suspended.
Saw the pop up notification on the bottom right corner of my screen while working and swelled with pride
Because I had redeemed myself, regained my dignity and the respect of my ancestors
I had stood on business until the very end - the business here being going against concensus and saying what I believe to be true irrespective of how much it costs me.
Moral of the story:
Those who say they want a better Nigeria
Those who admonish others to get their pvc, have refused to realise that the Nigeria they want will not happen via the ballot box.
We have been trying that channel for decades across republics. It doesn't work
So the Nigeria they want - or more realistically, the version of Nigeria they want - whatever name it is called, will have to be payed for in blood
A lot of it
2027 will come, Tinubu will 'win' - Whatever 'win' means
And we will either tweet about it over a weekend, and resume work on the Monday that follows
Or we will make the country ungovernable until he steps down. Shots will ring out, blood will spill, mothers will cry but that is the only way
If we are not willing or able to do that; to suffer, to sacrifice, to bleed, then we do not want a country that works
Our desire for a better Nigeria, is in a fundamental sense, like my belief in the freedom of speech:
It is only as meaningful as the price we are willing to pay for it.
If we are not willing to suffer for it, we do not want it.
Desire without sacrifice is wishful thinking
and if wishes were horses...
The abduction of the Chibok girls in 2014 triggered a global movement. One school abduction was enough to unite Nigerians, attract international attention, and place enormous pressure on the government through the #BringBackOurGirls campaign.
Yet, what has happened since then should trouble every Nigerian.
Under President Buhari's eight years in office, Nigeria witnessed about ten school abductions. Under President Tinubu's administration, in just three years, we have already recorded over ten school abductions.
Despite these repeated tragedies, there has been neither sustained national outrage nor significant international attention comparable to what followed Chibok.
This raises an important question: have we become so accustomed to insecurity that what once shocked our national conscience is now treated as normal?
At a time when millions of Nigerians are grappling with insecurity, poverty, and hardship, it is deeply troubling that those in power appear more focused on political calculations and preparations for the next election than on addressing the urgent challenges confronting our people.
It is, therefore, no surprise that some observers have labelled us a "Now Disgraced Nation". While we do not agree with any attempt to define our great country by its present difficulties, we must acknowledge that persistent insecurity, economic hardship, and leadership failure have damaged our reputation and standing among nations.
The answer is not denial, propaganda, or political distraction. The answer is leadership that is competent, compassionate, accountable, and genuinely committed to the welfare and security of the Nigerian people.
The Nigerian youth must not become indifferent. We must all refuse to normalise failure.
Young Nigerians - Take back your country!
A New Nigeria is Possible. -PO
@DavidHundeyin Of course it has to be tinubu from buhari to chaguory to this evil family. There's no single good thing or person associated with ebola yet many idiots are still defending this catastrophic failure of a president. Even this terrorists ravaging Nigeria check well he's involved.
There are some very powerful people pulling the strings behind the scenes on this legal issue over airtime lending in Nigeria, trying to stick their straw into a market worth an estimated N400b annually. These people are close to the president, and are wielding tremendous power and distorting the entire economy in ways that would have embarrassed a post-Soviet Russian oligarch in 1994.
I’ve been actively aware of this matter for over two years now and the time may have come to tell the full story of how Idris Saliu Alubankudi, and his brother Shamsudeen Saliu 'Shamz' Alubankudi - both very close to Bola Tinubu and his family - have built one of the biggest and most powerful state corruption enterprises
in the entire history of Nigeria.
These men are attempting to capture the systemically important foundations of the entire Nigerian economy - specifically telecoms and ICT - and turn their 3 year-old corruption enterprise into a sort of Nigerian chaebol. You have never seen anything like it before.
You will be hearing the names 'Idris' and 'Shamz' a lot in the coming few days. Also don’t forget their family name 'Saliu Alubankudi.' It's an important part of the story.
The only way Peter Obi is becoming president is if Nigerians reenact the French Revolution after the rigged results are released.
Only a sustained nationwide rebellion from Calabar to Maiduguri will dislodge the Chicago boy and his cronies.
Anything else is theater sadly.
There is nothing the international community would do.
Infact, they were instrumental in bringing Buhari to power.
Nigeria's economy was growing rapidly during GEJ, and they did not like it.
We are the ones who will solve our problems ourselves.
@jon_d_doe Yes and no. Some just do it because they are genuinely stupid I know a old foolish man who supports tinubu because he's deltan and tinubu wife comes from delta state so according to him they're in-laws. "Why should I support Igbo man over my own in-law"
@jon_d_doe Why is it almost always a Yoruba person defending tinubu failure every time. Loyalty to your clan over common sense/collective good till terrorists(so called bandits) visit your home very soon.
