This week, I have observed with deep concern two notable media appearances: one by my brother, Mr. Peter Obi, and the other by the family of Malam Nasir El-Rufai.
In his interview with Mr. Chude Jideonwo, Mr. Obi voiced serious worries about his personal safety and the adverse impact his role as an opposition leader has had on his businesses. Even more troubling was the Federal Government’s response, which resorted to personal insults and derogatory language instead of the restraint and maturity expected of a democratic administration.
Let me state clearly: like every Nigerian, our presidential candidate and all of us deserve the full protection of the state, not ridicule for raising legitimate concerns.
Democratic leadership requires fairness, justice, and restraint.
A government entrusted with protecting citizens should not dismiss or mock credible calls for help from any individual, including Mr. Peter Obi.
On the other hand, it was distressing to watch the wives of Malam Nasir El-Rufai publicly express the family’s anguish over his prolonged detention.
Regardless of political affiliation, Malam El-Rufai, like every Nigerian, is entitled to due process and the presumption of innocence until proven guilty by a competent court. The continued delay in granting him bail through what many perceive as stringent and unreasonable conditions is deeply concerning. As an unconvicted citizen, he deserves a fair and expeditious trial, while his health and that of his family are adequately safeguarded.
I therefore join well-meaning Nigerians in urging the Federal Government to handle these matters with transparency, accountability, and justice. These issues must not be weaponised to settle political scores.
For our democracy to truly thrive, every citizen; young or old, regardless of ethnicity, religion, or political persuasion must receive equal and equitable treatment under the law from the government that exists to protect us all. - RMK
"Ruling party claiming that insecurity in Nigeria is being fueled by opposition politicians or global events is nonsensical. It requires political will. One person must be in charge—either the terrørists or the government. If I'm in office, I will be in charge. President Tinubu does not have the capacity. If I had 40 children kidn@pped in the bush, I would be in Oyo State. I was in Ibadan over the weekend, and Governor Seyi Makinde said the President has never called him. It's unbelievable."
"When we had one of the most critical røbbery incidents, late President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua always called me, despite us belonging to different political parties."
—Mr Peter Obi, NDC presidential candidate.
Your husband never respected these rights as governor.
He violated mine for 162 days without trial. He is lucky that he even goes to court, some of us were abducted and kept without any form of trial until he was satisfied to let us free.
While I am against any form of persecution regardless of who it is being done to, I thought I should remind you ma'am that your husband was a dictator who never obeyed court orders that went against him and his ego.
There is an agency in Nigeria that recently received almost ₦98 billion in budgetary allocation through the Ministry of Information—the National Orientation Agency (NOA).
The primary responsibility of the @NOA_Nigeria is to communicate government policies, educate the public, promote national values, and foster unity among Nigerians.
With the 2027 general election approaching, this is exactly the time the agency should be carrying out nationwide voter education and civic sensitization. They should be on television, radio, social media, billboards, and in communities, helping Nigerians understand the electoral process and restoring public confidence in our democracy.
Many of us grew up watching programmes like Baba Alajo, Binta and Friends, and other television dramas. During commercial breaks, the National Orientation Agency regularly aired messages that promoted patriotism, good citizenship, and national values. Those messages helped shape the minds of many Nigerians.
Today, however, the agency seems largely absent from public discourse despite receiving significant public funding.
This is a call to the Director-General @LanreIssaOnilu of the National Orientation Agency: Nigerians deserve to see the impact of the resources allocated to your agency. This is the time to educate, orient, and mobilize citizens—not to remain silent.
If the agency fails to carry out its mandate, Nigerians have every right to ask questions and demand accountability.
Harrison Gwamnishu today apprehends wanted kidn@pper, Abubakar Usman in Ogwashiuku, Delta State, as the suspect revealed how much was collected from a kidn@pped victim and revealed to security operatives where their guns were hidden.
A video shared by Harrison also shows a kidn@pped victim describing Usman before he was tracked down and arrested.
“The way they’re going now, I might not even be al!ve soon, they’re going after my l!fe. Every single thing I do for a living, this government is deliberately frustrating it. The government is attack!ng me personally, they’re not even providing me with things I should be entitled to normally”
Peter Obi blows hot 🙆🏼♂️💔
If 3 Black people took a White man on a boat expedition and didn’t return with him the president would be making a speech right now.
Rest in power Nolan Wells
I watched with disappointment the recent interview granted by Senator Ali Modu Sheriff to Channels Television on Monday.
After a prolonged absence from public discourse, one would have expected that time away might have sharpened Senator Sheriff’s judgment. Regrettably, that does not appear to be the case.
In the interview, the former governor claimed that Peter Obi cannot command sizeable support in Northern Nigeria. It is curious that he has appointed himself spokesperson for the Northern masses. For the record, in his first outing on the presidential ballot, Mr. Obi secured approximately 2.8 million votes in the region — a remarkable achievement that cannot be dismissed lightly.
Given the current national hardships, the widespread consensus on the failure of the APC administration, and the addition of a strong Northern figure to the ticket who previously garnered 1.45 million votes in the region, the OK ticket remains a formidable force in Northern politics.
Even more surprising was Senator Sheriff’s assertion that the people of Kano would not vote for Mr. Obi. Let me state clearly: the good people of Kano are neither bigoted nor xenophobic. They have consistently demonstrated strong trust in the Kwankwasiyya movement and will support any credible ticket presented under its banner.
I respectfully advise Senator Sheriff that, in future national television appearances, he would do better to speak to the serious insecurity and humanitarian challenges facing his home state, rather than making divisive and poorly considered remarks.
The OK ticket currently represents the best opportunity for Nigerians to reset the country and place it on a path of competence, unity, and progress. - RMK
So if Alex Onyia didn’t decide to take these kids to Rome, you mean the world would not have seen us win gold?
Some other country would have won and we would have thought they were the brightest on earth?
Bad Governance is hiding the greatness of Nigerians.
I’ve said on previous tweets that Nigerians are the brightest and smartness people on earth. No enabling environment to showcase that brilliance.
The wait is over.
We have 2 golds: Chimdiebube Onwubiko and Don Anele Munachimso.
We are the best in the world!
Egejurum Onyedikachi’s name was omitted. He should have a gold.
