Nigerians must eschew avoidable difference within and see the blessing wherewith we're bestowed as our might definitely would come as threat to even the powers that be.

[SEGA L'éveilleur® @segalink]

I said it earlier in my previous tweets that a time will come when nations will agree that Nigerians globally most especially should return home. They will blame all their issues on us as brainwashed by their politicos. The xenophobic rhythm is gaining steam.

“I’ll withdraw my support if Peter Obi agrees to be vice to anyone”

Our dear revered Prof., with due respect sir, this ship has sailed. You cannot give such condition to the coalition. Stop drawing everyone back with threats and unrealistic demands.

Your stand should be “anyone who emerges creditably as the opposition’s candidate will receive my support”.

What should be of concern to you and everyone should be a free and fair primary that produces “who can defeat Tinubu”.

2023 should be our last “emotional politicking”.

The reality today is that we have a mad man in power who doesn’t give a hoot about decency, shame or civility.

We must not be beaten twice by a crook.

If we want to see true reform, then let the government by an Act of parliament refrain from using these words.

Thief= Corrupt
Assassin= Kidnapper
Terrorist= Bandit
Example:
You, Fmr governor X, is standing trial for STEALING XYZ amount .
Are you a thief,yes or No?

They don't struggle with "Complexity" they only sublimate into a system that accepts epilepsy as a functional standard of governance ... Make the institutions weaker and be rewarded with an El Dorado of political patrimony.

[Dr Joe Abah, OON @DrJoeAbah]

I have a theory: Nigerian leaders struggle to handle complexity and anything with moving parts. We can pour concrete. It’s pretty straightforward. I guess that is why people see roads being built and say that Governance is not rocket science. If roads are what they mean by governance, they would be right: it’s not rocket science.

When it comes to complexity, multiple components, or moving parts, our leaders tend to struggle. For instance, electricity involves generation, transmission, distribution, metering, billing and tariff management. Complexity. We don’t handle it well.

That is why, when a new governor succeeds one who has already poured concrete, they seem clueless about what to do next. Facilitating the economic activity that will make use of the roads and buildings is harder than pouring the concrete to build them. It requires brain power. Complexity hurts the brain. We don’t like it.

In countries like France, most politicians would be expected to have attended one of the governance schools if they want to seek high public office. In the UK, you would probably have studied Politics, Philosophy and Economics at Oxford or Cambridge. In the USA, it would be usual for you to have attended an Ivy League university. Same as Japan and Singapore. In all these places, you would be exposed to complexity, innovation and problem-solving.

In Nigeria, all you need is to have completed a course of secondary education. Did you know that you actually don’t have to have a WAEC certificate? You just need to have finished secondary education, you don’t need to have passed WAEC or even NECO. Is it surprising the quality of leaders that we have?

It is not about having a PhD. Most Nigerian governors with PhDs have been thoroughly disappointing. It is more about being equipped with the skills and intellectual rigour to handle the complexity of governing others and making the best decisions on their behalf.

I would suggest that we upgrade the Public Service Institute of Nigeria and the Administrative Staff College of Nigeria into proper governance schools. We should then make
it mandatory that all politicians who want to occupy elective executive positions (like LGA Chairman, Speaker, Senate President, Deputy Governor, Governor, Vice President or President) must attend and graduate from those institutions before they can even seek any elective public office at all.

Do you agree with my theory? If not, do you have a counter theory? If you agree, do you think that this would make any difference? If you think that it won’t make any difference, what do you think would? #NaijaKnowledgeX

These people and the entire RCCG actually believed that Buhari had what it takes to lead Nigeria into a first world.
These people went to school. Many are professors. Some claimed to have direct access to God.
Some are gifted with "prophesies".
They read history. They understood international relations. They understood how societies work or so we thought.
They were more than 20 years old in 1983 when Buhari shot himself to power.
They saw Buhari murder innocent Nigerians in 1983.
They saw Buhari destroy the economy in 1983.
They saw the role Buhari played in Abacha's government.
They read all the threats of violence by Buhari against the nation.
They saw Buhari harass Lam Adesina the Oyo State Governor due to Fulani herdsmen conflicts with locals in Oyo State.
They saw Buhari lead the sharia protest that claimed the lives of innocent Nigerians in 2001.
They saw Buhari and his minions open the gate of hell on innocent Nigerians when he lost the presidential election in 2011.
If Buhari was not speaking and defending his Fulani heritage he would be fighting to defend his religious heritage.
Never for once did he defend Nigeria or gave interview on how to rebuild the economy, education, power, health, etc.
They saw everything this man did. They knew him too well to miss the little details of his violent life.
But they were united in hatred.
Hatred for Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. One among the few Nigeria leaders that actually wanted Nigeria to work.
Hatred became a unifying force to push forward a false narrative.
They exploited his humility.
They exploited his kindness.
They exploited his humanity
They danced and made merry in Ojota. They ate, drank and danced away the destiny of a nation.
Saints Tinubu, Amaechi, Fashola etc led the chorus against ‘corrupt’ Goodluck Jonathan.
Tinubu a private jet owner and owner of Lagos, Amaechi a private jet owner and funder of Buhari campaign, Atiku a University owner paid with his civil service allowance etc wanted ‘corrupt’ Goodluck Jonathan out.
But the people did not see the moral paradox because you see - hate is a unifying factor.
They mobilised thugs to stone a sitting President.
They harassed his family wherever they went.
Because they are from the hated minority who must NOT be king.
For Kings must come from the Fulani lineage. Jonathan is Ijaw. Ijaws should not be Kings.
Jonathan must not loot also.
For looters must come from enablers of evil.
These are intellectuals.
Amongst whom are Pastors and Prophets.
Wisdom failed.
Prophesies failed.
WAEC issued a fake WAEC attestation to Buhari.
It is possible many Nigerian "intellectuals" are working with fake certificates.
A nation without conscience is a curse to its people.
We all are standing on the podium of history.
Surely our children will read the roles we played in the salvation or annihilation of humanity.

[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

One of the consistent principles of leadership is the willingness to make ultimate sacrifices and take risks. A true leader does not make excuses or complain; he shows up, sacrifices, and provides solutions, especially in difficult times.

While I do not advocate for our President to expose himself to monumental risks, I cannot accept the excuse that bad roads prevented him from reaching Yelwata in Benue State—especially after he had already made it to the state. This visit happened days after the massacre, with enough time to plan appropriately.

But let’s ask the fundamental question: Who is responsible for fixing the roads if not state and the federal governments? If the Commander-in-Chief cannot reach a part of his own country due to bad roads, what hope is there for the ordinary Nigerian who plies those same routes every day?

Leadership is not about comfort; it is about sacrifice. It is about standing with your people, especially in moments of pain and tragedy. You cannot abandon your citizens in their hour of need. You don’t offer excuses when action is required.

Even if we accept that the roads were truly impassable—which they are not, as presidential aides and staff managed to navigate them—what happened to the use of helicopters? Are we saying a nation that boasts of a presidential air fleet could not airlift the President to Yelwata to condole with grieving citizens?

The people of Benue did not need protocol or explanations. They needed empathy. They needed presence. The roads may be bad, but what is worse is the institutional neglect that brought us to this point.

A New Nigeria cannot—and will not—be built on excuses. It will be built on the sacrifices, courage, and responsibility of true leaders.

A New Nigeria is POssible.
