Reflections on My 65th Birthday

Today, July 19, 2026, marks my 65th birthday. At sixty-five, birthdays should naturally become moments of deep reflection - moments to look back with gratitude to Almighty God for His abundant graces, examine the journey so far, and ask how the remaining years can be devoted more meaningfully to the service of God and humanity.

Perhaps in countries where basic human needs have largely been met, where institutions function effectively, and where citizens enjoy a greater measure of security and dignity, such attainments may rightly call for elaborate celebrations. In Nigeria, however, our reality compels a different kind of reflection.

Our nation is blessed with enormous human and natural resources, yet millions of our people continue to struggle with challenges that demand our collective attention. We cannot afford to celebrate ourselves excessively while many around us are burdened by poverty, ill health, unemployment, and limited opportunities. Rather, occasions such as this should remind us of our responsibility to contribute towards building a nation where future generations can genuinely celebrate.

This is why I have always seen birthdays not merely as occasions for personal celebration, but as opportunities for sober reflection, thanksgiving, and a renewed commitment to service.

As I reflected today, I came to a simple conclusion: the greatest celebration of life is not what we receive from others, but the lives we can touch positively.

This conviction has guided my approach throughout my years in business, in the corporate world, and as Governor of Anambra State. In each of these roles, I have tried to see every privilege not as a personal entitlement but as an opportunity to improve the lives of others.

Whenever people or institutions sought to celebrate me with expensive gifts or elaborate ceremonies, I encouraged them instead to redirect those resources towards projects that would have a lasting impact. Over the years, this philosophy has resulted in the building of schools, hostel blocks, support to schools, and other facilities that continue to benefit the less privileged. I have always believed that resources meant for personal comfort can often be transformed into instruments of hope for many.

The greatest honour anyone can receive is not found in gifts, ceremonies, or public admiration, but in knowing that one’s life has contributed, however modestly, to making another person’s life better.

Today, therefore, I give thanks to Almighty God for the gift of life and for bringing me to this important milestone of 65 years. I began the day with a Mass of Thanksgiving in Onitsha, thanking God for His grace, protection, guidance, and the countless blessings He has bestowed upon me over the years.

After the Mass, I proceeded to St. Raphael’s Hospital, Umueri, a small rural hospital in Anambra East Local Government Area. In furtherance of my belief that birthdays should be occasions for service rather than self-indulgence, I donated the sum of ₦10 million to support the hospital’s work of providing quality healthcare to the people.

As I was conducted around the hospital and saw patients in their moments of vulnerability, I was reminded again of our shared humanity. Some of those receiving care may not even have the financial means to settle their hospital bills, yet they deserve compassion, dignity, and access to quality healthcare. Their condition was a reminder that leadership, in its truest form, is about caring for people, especially those who cannot repay our kindness.

Hospitals and schools remain two of the greatest investments any society can make. A hospital preserves life; a school shapes the future. Supporting both is, therefore, not just an act of charity - it is an investment in humanity and in the future of our nation.

There was this woman in our area who stopped going to church.
She said and i quote “Abeg, God dey everywhere. I can pray from my house.”

And truly, she was right. God is everywhere.
But one Sunday, her pastor decided to visit after service to know why she has not been coming to church. He didn’t come with any long talk he just sat with her outside, where she was roasting corn on a sunday morning 😆

After a while, the pastor used a stick to pull one burning charcoal out of the fire and left it on its own. At first, it was still red and hot, but after small time, it went black and cold.

Then the pastor smiled and said,
“That’s how it is when you stay away from other believers. Your fire go slowly die.”

That day, she understood.

Let me tell you, sometimes, it’s not that you don’t love God, your spirit just gets weak because you’ve been alone too long.
When you go to church, it’s not just about hearing a sermon. It’s about catching fire again, through songs, through testimonies, through people who remind you that you’re not alone.

So today, wear that outfit, carry your Bible, and go to church.
Because when believers gather, strength multiplies. 🔥

Husband is relaxing in the house, wife
is washing a bale of clothes outside under the sun. After this, she'll go and cook. They do this every Saturday and they both go to work from Monday to Friday. You see this kind of marriage? I reject it for all my female friends.

Nigerian man gives his testimony after the massacre of his village: "all the houses were set on fire and all our grain was burned. This morning we buried 29 people". Why is no one protesting for them?

Roadmap to a New Nigeria That Is Possible – Part II

Education and Healthcare: The Foundation of a Renewed Nigeria

Recall that on July 1st, in Part 1 of "My Vision for a Productive and Prosperous Nigeria," I outlined the broad framework of my proposed roadmap for national renewal. In it, I emphasised that the transformation of Nigeria must begin with rebuilding our human capital through quality education and healthcare, supported by reforms in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), character and civic education, and strategic investments that will move our nation from a consumption-driven economy to a production-driven one. I promised to follow up with other parts in the coming weeks and months.

Today, July 16th, in the middle of July, I wish to expand on these two critical pillars - education and healthcare - because they are the bedrock upon which every prosperous nation is built. They are the cornerstones of the foundation that will ensure that a son of nobody can become somebody and remove many from the ranks of the disaffected who often become tools in the insecurity challenges confronting us.

Evidence from around the world shows that quality education and accessible healthcare are among the clearest distinctions between thriving nations and lagging ones. Princeton University Nobel Prize-winning economist Angus Deaton highlights this reality in his book, “The Great Escape: Health, Wealth, and the Origins of Inequality.”

Nothing, therefore, could be further from the truth than the claim by some young people that “education is a scam.” Education, when combined with good health, provides the ladder for individual upward mobility and drives economic growth for the nation.

We must become more intentional about aligning education with our national priorities, as Singapore did, and challenge our country to value education in the same way Deng Xiaoping repeatedly urged China to do from 1978 onwards, with the remarkable transformation we see today.

We will work through commissions that strengthen collaboration among the tiers of government, ensuring that primary education is domiciled at the community and local government levels, with strong parental involvement and curricula that are sensitive to local economic factor endowments and the value chains derived from them.

State governments will be supported to expand high-quality Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), as well as general secondary education, through targeted grants and incentives.

We are also developing schemes that will enable universities to focus more deliberately on specialised areas of teaching and research, making them globally competitive while producing a workforce equipped for the demands of the future.

A NEW Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Remember Aisha Achimugu, the lady rumoured to be in a relationship with Governor Sanwo-Olu, who held a birthday party on the Caribbean island of Grenada, which the Governor reportedly attended?

Well, an Abuja Federal High Court has ordered her to forfeit assets worth N8.9 billion.

A breakdown of the assets includes; Jewellery worth N4,645,170,294.9 - Eleven exotic cars worth N4,293,000,000 - $50,000 cash - N30, 00,000.

Watching Rufai Oseni break down in tears on Arise TV this morning over Nigeria’s dire situation is heartbreaking. 😔

[Rev. Ezekiel Dachomo @ezekieldachomo0]

To the world

My name is Reverend Ezekiel Dachomo and today I speak not with hatred but with a heart full of pain and faith

A few days ago Fulani herdsmen sent a threatening letter to me and to members of my church

The letter was written in both Hausa and English and its message was terrifying

They vowed to attack me and kill me soon just as they killed nine of my relatives

Copies of these threatening letters have already been handed over to the security operatives

Many people have asked me if I am afraid

My answer is no

I am not afraid because my life is in the hands of Almighty God

The Bible says in Psalm 118:6

The Lord is on my side I will not fear What can man do unto me

I know what it means to bury those I love

I know what it means to wipe the tears of children who watched their parents murdered

I know what it means to stand before grieving families whose only crime was refusing to deny Jesus Christ

Now they say I will be next

But I ask the world

What is my crime

Is my crime that I speak for widows who have no voice

Is my crime that I cry for orphaned children whose parents were murdered

Is my crime that I tell the stories of persecuted Christians in Nigeria so the world will not forget them

Is my crime that I preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and refuse to remain silent while innocent people are killed

If that is my crime then I will continue until my last breath

Jesus Himself warned us in John 15:20

If they persecuted Me they will also persecute you

I did not choose this path because it is safe

I chose it because truth must never bow before terror

They may threaten my life but they cannot silence the truth

They may kill the messenger but they cannot kill the message

Romans 8:35 says

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ Shall tribulation or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or peril or sword

The answer is no

Nothing can separate us from His love

Today I ask the world not to look away

Remember the widows

Remember the orphans

Remember the innocent Christians who continue to suffer simply because of their faith

Stand with us in prayer

Stand with us in truth

Stand with us in demanding justice for every innocent life

And if one day my voice is silenced let the world remember that I never carried a weapon

My only weapon was the truth

My only mission was to defend the persecuted

My only desire was to let the world know that the blood of innocent people cries out before God

As Paul declared in 2 Timothy 4:7

I have fought the good fight I have finished the race I have kept the faith

May God strengthen every persecuted believer

May He comfort every grieving family

And may the light of Christ shine even in the darkest valleys until justice and peace prevail

Just because you grew up in church, that doesn’t mean you grew up in having a relationship with Christ

@TamunoDavid2006 The comments ehh 🤣🤣🤣

[Fejiro Oliver @fejirooliver86]

Two ladies went to visit Mr David Umahi for God knows what. Many says it’s for mekwa.

One of the ladies died naked and Umahi didn’t tell the police immediately, instead an ambulance was brought in to carry the dead body out.

He kept it secret.

It took Sahara Reporters to blow the horny cover open and when Umahi responded, he said they are medical physiotherapists deployed to SERVICE HIM SPECIFICALLY. What kind of service that’s special to him when he has no medical needs that demands physio?

The Umahi Teaching Hospital that he claimed deployed them to him has no business doing such. Umahi has lots of questions to answer.

If a girl dies in the house of a poor man, he will be in police custody by now. Umahi should be in one. That’s the only debate he should be having right now and not with Peter Obi.

Who killed the girl?
Who sucked her breasts when it was opened?
Who stripped her naked?
Do doctors now carry out physio work naked?

Umahi is a culprit

The second that went for the adventurous journey must not be killed and not also be bribed, as she’s the only eye witness alive. We know that what dollars cannot do in this kind of case does not exist.

When Tracy accused him of being a horny goat, he denied it even though no Nigerian believed him. Two months after, one proof seems to be coming out. This cannot be swept under the carpet.

Umahi must not go scot free in this.

[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

When I was Muslim, Eid al-Adha was my favorite holiday.

Every year: the sacrifice. A lamb or goat slaughtered to commemorate the day Allah ransomed Abraham’s son with a substitute.

And the Quran’s own words haunted me for years after I left.

Surah 37:107 goes “And We ransomed him with a GREAT sacrifice.”

Great? An animal caught in a bush is “great”? Rams are not rare. There is nothing great about a ram… unless the ram is pointing at something.

Go back to the original account. Genesis 22. Isaac asks his father, “where is the lamb?” And Abraham answers with one of the most loaded sentences in the Bible:

“God will provide FOR HIMSELF the lamb.”

Not “God will provide A lamb for us.” God will provide HIMSELF the lamb.

And it happens on a mountain in “the region of Moriah,” the exact region where the Temple would later stand (2 Chronicles 3:1), walking distance from a hill called Calvary.

Stay with me now…

Abraham even names the place “The LORD Will Provide,” and Genesis adds: “on the mountain of the LORD it WILL BE provided.”

Future tense. The story itself says the real provision hadn’t happened yet.

Two thousand years later, John the Baptist sees a man walking toward him and says the sentence Isaac’s question had been waiting for:

“BEHOLD, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.”

There’s the great sacrifice.

Islam slaughters an animal every year and calls the substitute “great” without ever asking what it was a substitute FOR.

The ritual survived. The meaning didn’t.

I found the Lamb.

PRAISE THE LORD, I’M FREE

[Peter Obi Grassroots Mobilization. @PO_GrassRootM]

BREAKING: We have credible reports that the APC government is plotting to arrest Peter Obi because they failed to stop him from contesting the 2027 Presidential election.

Let them hear this loud and clear: Peter Obi remains the only joy giver left for suffering Nigerians at this critical moment. Any attempt to arrest him will trigger massive unrest that the APC will deeply regret.

Abuja will become unbearable for Bola Tinubu and his corrupt officials who are busy planning setting Nigeria on fire.

An illegitimate government that cannot provide good governance has now resorted to illegal political persecution.

Since shutting down the nation is their specialty, we are more than ready to give it to them louder and stronger.

The more they oppress, the more united and resolute we become. Peter Obi is the hope they cannot kill.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

I need your honest opinion on this.

I think it's time we introduce the South East STEM Olympiad alongside the South East Maths Olympiad. One registration covers both competitions.

Our children have significant gaps in science, and we need to fix that as soon as possible.

I'm thinking we should split the prize money between Mathematics and Science.

We can hold both competitions on the same day but at different times.

I've been studying several world-class science curricula that are built on higher-order thinking and real-world application. We can develop our own curriculum specifically for the competition and share it with schools across the South East so they can prepare their students effectively.

What do you think?

[Everest @novieverest]

I have refrained from saying anything about the video Festus Keyamo posted, the reason is that I blame Peter Obi. I cannot exonerate him.
It would be wrong even as an OBIdient to watch that video and not have some blame for Peter Obi. Unless you are not a true Nigerian.
I will drop some questions.

Is it possible to find any politician of Peter Obi's calibre that vulnerable? If Peter Obi moves with a convoy of security personnel, no airport boy would be able to clamp his car. The reason an airport boy got close to his car to clamp it was the same reason Reno Omokiri had access to him at the airport.
HUMILITY.
APC boys are talking about one police man. Are they aware that Peter Obi is entitled to DSS protection?
Being humble in Nigeria comes with a price and that's what PO is paying.
Nigerians don't rate humble people, they see them as weak people.
