Recently, my mom was on admission. Everyday, myself, my siblings and my dad were at the hospital. We kept her company till 10pm before we dispersed, with one person staying back overnight.

Everyday, I looked around and saw the entire family and I smiled. It made me realized part of the ressons I hated living abroad. Your love one is sick and all you can do is send money. Meanwhile, your heart is beating fast because you cant see them. There is celebration or random Sunday family gathering and you are the only one missing. The reason I always show up in person for anything is that money cannot fill the place of presence. It is the memories we share that lingers.

Many families can't gather together anymore for celebration or caregiving. The only time some families can gather now is burial, and even burial no dey see complete family again. Nigeria has to work for the next generation. They deserve to gather around with their cousins, nephews, nieces, aunts, uncles, parents, and grandparents on a random Sunday.

Electing Peter Obi will trigger a cultural shift in Nigeria. It will restore morality, accountability, and the belief that leadership should be earned, not bought.

[Harmless @HarmlessHQ]

You added $42 billion to our national debt and added only $5 billion to our foreign reserve; and you want us to clap for you. 😂😂

Let's put this into context,

Zubairu has N1,000 in his Zenith bank account and he went to Okechukwu and borrowed N5,000.

He took N3,000 from this N5,000 loan and deposited into his Zenith bank account and the account balance increased to N4,000. And he used the remaining N2,000 to flex suya and kunu.

He now called his girlfriend Yetunde and showed her his balance of N4,000; telling her he's account balance is increasing.

Meanwhile, he is owing Okechukwu N5,000.

Is this a progress for Zubairu or backwardness?

Zubairu is Nigeria (Tinubu).
Okechukwu is World Bank.
Yetunde is the citizenry.

[Chetuya Chinagolum @Chetuyachinago]

Nigeria's foreign reserves have supposedly increased to a staggering $51 billion, marking the highest level the country has seen in 17 years.
Unfortunately, this heavily publicized macroeconomic achievement is not something that ordinary Nigerians should be celebrating or congratulating the government over.

This is because a massive, tragic number of local businesses, and independent factories were brutally sacrificed on the altar of the Tinubu Administration's economic policies to make this statistical illusion a physical possibility.
The hard truth is that even though Nigeria's foreign reserves have technically increased from $35 billion in 2022 (under Muhammadu Buhari's administration) up to $51 billion in 2026 (under Tinubu's administration), almost all of this newly added cash came directly from foreign speculators.

To clearly understand this financial scam, you have to remember that when Tinubu first came to power, the base interest rate (the annual profit you expect to make when you buy Treasury Bills or government bonds from the Central Bank) was sitting at roughly 11%. But the very second Tinubu captured power, he aggressively hiked this interest rate to an unprecedented, jaw-dropping 27%.
For relative context, the standard interest rate in the United States is hovering at only about 4 percent. So, obviously, this astronomical increase was strictly done to entice, lure, and practically beg wealthy European bondholders, Wall Street hedge funds, offshore currency speculators, and international capital flight managers to come dump their volatile dollars into Nigeria. While this influx of dollar speculative investment temporarily inflated the Central Bank's reserves, this is nothing but dangerous and highly unstable "hot money."
In 1-3 years, these short-term bonds will inevitably mature, and these offshore investors will aggressively demand their principal and their massive 27 percent interest back, which will rapidly deplete and empty the national reserves even further.

But this is not the only devastating problem. This desperate policy has also violently forced commercial banks to aggressively increase their own lending rates even higher, with many banks now charging local businesses a crippling 35 percent to 40 percent interest on basic business loans. This predatory banking environment has effectively forced countless local businesses, agricultural enterprises, and manufacturing firms to completely collapse. Since many of these struggling businesses depend heavily on short-term bank loans to pay salaries, purchase raw materials, fund daily operations, and maintain their supply chains, there is mathematically no way they can afford to pay these extortionate interest rates to the banks while still maintaining basic operational profitability.

This ridiculously high interest rate, when aggressively added to the painful, continuous removal of petrol and electricity subsidies, has indeed succeeded in artificially inflating Nigeria's foreign reserves to impress Western creditors. But in the exact same breath, it has violently pushed tens of millions of ordinary Nigerians into extreme, multidimensional poverty, skyrocketed the cost of basic food, completely crumbled local industries, and transformed the entire country into an economic wasteland just to make the Central Bank's balance sheet look pretty to the IMF.

Many of you want great relationships but all you want to do is take.
There’s nothing great that comes out of always taking. Even friendships but you want life long partners while being a leach.
If you like stay online and let people deceive you that you are some sort of prize that no one can get tired of.

Dear Nigerians,

THERE IS FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN!
INEC is manipulating the Voter Register.

They are systematically deleting the Voter Registration of certain demographics. Kindly rush to their portal & check to make sure that your CVR Registration is still valid & is found.

RETWEET MASSIVELY & SPREAD THE WORD!

[Sheni Coker @sheni_coker]

These “bandits” are not that sophisticated. If the Nigerian government actually wanted to find them, they would find them in a few hours. The government is complicit in this. it’s not rocket science.

[Aisha Yesufu @AishaYesufu]

I teared up reading this!
Aunty @obyezeks , when my integrity was put to test I passed and that is better than any position I could have gained!
The lessons from you that we must negotiate our point of view and never our values remained with me all throughout!

You have always said that we do not have a political party problem but a political class problem.
Once again you were proven right!

12 years ago, at the Unity Fountain on the 30th of May 2014 I hugged you and said to you, THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME BELIEVE IN NIGERIA!
I promise you Ma, my political journey just started! I am taking advocacy into politics and I am going nowhere! This is the beginning and until we get the Nigeria where competence, character and capacity becomes norm, I go nowhere by God’s grace.
Thank you Ma! I love you.

[Oluwakemi Oyefeso @i_am_agbeke]

I am a Yoruba woman - both my parents are from Egba land in Ogun State, and I am married to an Ijebu man. I am a full-blooded Yoruba woman.

I supported and voted for Peter Obi in 2023 (check my other handle @RealitycheckNJ), and I will gladly do it again.

If you love this country, I beg you in God’s name - get your PVC and come out to vote en masse. We cannot continue like this. What is happening in this country is not sustainable. I take God beg una. 🙏🏽

[💥 Fr. Cyriacus Kamai 🇳🇬 @vakkai]

One VC, one Professor, one woman, one person refused to be used in 2023, and today Abịa State has been liberated. What role will you play in 2027?

[OurFaveOnlineDoc 🇬🇧 🇳🇬 @OurFavOnlineDoc]

There was an AI-doctored video with an altered voice of Tinubu wrongly claimed to be posted by VDM- and within 2hours the presidency responded calling for arrest. Even tho the said video was clearly doctored and never posted by VDM.

Yet the same presidency will wait for days - after terrorists kidnap, behead and slaughter Nigerians. And sometimes they will never even say anything.

Human lives mean nothing to these heartless animals in power. They only bother about politics and campaign.

This is an evil satanic government.

[EgoKuwait 🇰🇼 @Egokuwait]

Apparently we’re now RANSOM-SHAMING in Nigeria.

Someone paid 1.5m ransom to release him brother, you say that one no be kidnap.

It’s a big shame to share a country with some imbeciles.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

There’s a silent disaster happening in Nigeria that nobody wants to confront honestly.

We keep shouting about unemployment, bad leadership, low productivity, corruption, poor healthcare, failed institutions and why our country is not working. But many people are avoiding the root cause.

Our education system has been deeply compromised.

A student enters secondary school or university full of dreams, intelligence and potential. Then the system teaches them something dangerous:

“You do not need competence to succeed.”

WAEC malpractice. NECO malpractice. GCE runs. Sorting. Sex for grades. Extortion. Intimidation. Victimization. Handout rackets. “See me after class.” “Talk to your lecturer.” “Settle this course.”

And after 4 or 5 years of surviving that environment, we expect excellence to magically appear.

It won’t.

A country cannot repeatedly reward dishonesty in classrooms and expect integrity in government offices, hospitals, engineering sites, courtrooms and businesses.

This is where many of our unemployable graduates are coming from.

Not because Nigerians are not intelligent.
Not because our youths are lazy.
But because too many people were trained inside a system where merit was murdered.

The painful part is this:

UNN, UNILAG, FUTO, ABU, UI, IMSU, ABSU and many others are using largely the same NUC-regulated curriculum.

The difference is standards.

The universities that still command respect are usually the ones with stronger resistance against sorting, extortion and academic fraud.

The ones collapsing in reputation are often the ones where corruption became normalized.

Once a student realizes they can buy an “A” with ₦20,000, or sleep their way through a course, or manipulate results through connections, the motivation to truly learn starts dying slowly.

And when millions of such graduates enter the labor market, the entire country pays the price.

That weak engineer may eventually supervise a bridge.

That poorly trained nurse may handle a patient.

That compromised accountant may manage public funds.

That fake first-class graduate may become a lecturer and reproduce the same cycle again.

This is no longer just an education problem.

It is a national security problem.

Countries become great because they protect competence fiercely.

Singapore did it.
China did it.
Germany did it.
South Korea did it.

You cannot build a first-world country with a third-world attitude towards education integrity.

Nigeria does not have a shortage of talent.
Nigeria has a shortage of systems that protect excellence.

And until we become ruthless about fighting academic corruption, exam malpractice, sorting, sex-for-grades and institutional intimidation, we will continue producing certificates instead of competence.

This fight is bigger than schools.

It is about the future survival of Nigeria itself.
