In 1992, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso was serving as the Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly of Nigeria. During that period, he brought along a 29-year-old young man who had worked under him in the Water Resources Department during the 1980s, and appointed him as his Personal Assistant (P.A).
In 1999, after Kwankwaso had continued his political struggle since 1992, that same young man had returned to work in the Water Resources sector. Unexpectedly, Kwankwaso won the governorship election in Kano State, and once again he sought out the young man and reappointed him as his P.A, this time as the Personal Assistant to the Governor.
In 2003, after Kwankwaso lost his re-election bid, the Federal Government appointed him as Nigeria’s Minister of Defence. Kwankwaso still did not abandon the young man; instead, he took him along to Abuja and appointed him as his Special Assistant (S.A).
In 2007, after Kwankwaso left the Ministry of Defence, Olusegun Obasanjo appointed him as Special Envoy to Somalia and Darfur. Again, Kwankwaso continued to move with the young man as his close aide and trusted right-hand man.
In 2009, under the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Umaru Musa Yar'Adua appointed Kwankwaso as the representative of the North-West region. Kwankwaso once again continued working closely with the young man as his right-hand man. In that same year, Kwankwaso secured a federal appointment for him, and fortunately, the late Yar’Adua appointed him as the Chairman of the Governing Board of the National Institute for Educational Planning and Administration (NIEPA), Ondo State.
In 2011, Kwankwaso returned and became Governor of Kano State for the second time. Once again, he brought back the young man and handed him the position of Commissioner in one of the major ministries.
In 2019, after Kwankwaso completed his tenure as governor in 2015, the young man had stepped back from politics until 2018, when Kwankwaso brought him forward again and declared that he would contest for governor under the People's Democratic Party (PDP). This decision caused Kwankwaso to lose some allies and supporters, as many believed he had chosen someone who was not experienced or capable enough. The election was conducted, victory was initially declared, then it was announced as inconclusive, and eventually Abdullahi Umar Ganduje retained his seat.
In 2023, Kwankwaso once again brought forward the same young man and insisted that he would be the candidate. Due to the lack of a solid political structure within the PDP to support him, Kwankwaso left the party and joined a relatively small and lesser-known party called the New Nigeria People's Party (NNPP), together with his supporters. He once again ensured that the young man secured the ticket. The election was held, victory was achieved, and the young man eventually became the Governor of Kano State.
History can be inspiring to hear. However, sadly, after this young man became governor, within just two years the story began to take a different and unpleasant turn from the end of 2025 into 2026.

A Life of Faith and Service: Farewell to Rev. Dr Uma Ukpai
Yesterday, I joined Nigerians from all walks of life to pay our last respects to a great man of God, Rev. Dr Uma Ukpai, at the International Conference Centre, Umuahia. It was a solemn yet deeply inspiring gathering - one that reflected the breadth of lives he touched and the enduring legacy he leaves behind.
Rev. Dr Ukpai was not only a preacher of the Word but a living embodiment of it, marked by humility, compassion, and commitment to the service of God and humanity. His life was a testament to faith in action, as he laboured tirelessly to uplift souls, strengthen families, and guide communities along the path of righteousness.
As we bid him farewell, we do so with gratitude to God for a life well spent and for the countless seeds of faith he sowed, which will continue to bear fruit for generations to come.
May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace. -PO
The rumor of @PeterObi@KwankwasoRM is causing serious Fear/Panic in the camp of the ruling APC, even with them having 31 state govs, over 75 out of 109 senatos and about 245 out of 360 house of Rep members..
@NigeriaDecides2027 will be a shocker..
As we move closer to electioneering season, i have a simple question for my Yoruba/Moslem Brothers, has ur life been better since your grandfather took over the affairs of Aso Rock?
Do you buy fuel cheaper?
Have you been having constant power supply?
Continue...
Do you go to a separate market?
Do you have access to a better health care?
Are you have a different exchange rate market?
Are your kids having the best of education?
Can you be bold to travel by road to other part of this country without fear of being kidnapped?
YES, SOME CHANGES HAPPENED.
BUT LET’S ADD REALITY:
- FUEL QUEUES DISAPPEARED, BUT FUEL PRICE TRIPLED.
- ASUU STRIKES REDUCED, BUT STUDENTS ARE STRUGGLING WITH HIGHER FEES AND COST OF LIVING.
- NAIRA CARDS WORK, BUT THE NAIRA LOST MASSIVE VALUE.
- COMPANIES DECLARE PROFITS, BUT MANY NIGERIANS CAN’T AFFORD BASIC GOODS.
- DEBT SERVICE RATIO IMPROVED, BUT TOTAL PUBLIC DEBT HAS INCREASED.
-ROUND TRIPPING REDUCED, BUT FX VOLATILITY DESTROYED MANY SMEs.
- PASSPORT PROCESSING IMPROVED, BUT SECURITY AND POWER REMAIN MAJOR FAILURES.
- MACRO NUMBERS LOOK GOOD ON PAPER.
- MICRO REALITY HURTS IN THE MARKET.
THE REAL QUESTION IS SIMPLE:
ARE NIGERIANS LIVING BETTER TODAY THAN 2023?
PROGRESS IS NOT ANNOUNCEMENTS.
PROGRESS IS PURCHASING POWER, SECURITY, STABLE ELECTRICITYAND FOOD AFFORDABILITY.
I DARE YOU TO REPLY THIS 🫵
AS FEMI OTEDOLA REJIGS FBN TO CORPORATE EXCELLENCE
Billionaire Femi Otedola is a shrewd businessman with penchant for making big money, investing, following business due process and keeping low profile without the urge for a flamboyant lifestyle.
From AP and Geregu Power Plant where he left a huge positive footprints, Otedola has taken his top notch business characteristics to the First Bank of Nigeria where he is tearing down the walls that have nearly destroyed the Nigeria’s foremost Bank.
From going after the Banks debtors, the astute businessman is now moulding a new Banking standard in FBN where CEO’s, Directors and Board members stay complaint to ethical standards.
By the time Otedola is done cleaning up the mess in FBN, the Bank will immediately reclaim her place as Nigeria’s top bank.
