@abdullahayofel Before nko? He will definitely turn against Seyi Makinde. Most of his close friends are in APC. Its only a matter of time if he should win.
@Onsogbu@Mr_JAGs Let's continue to bombard @jidesanwoolu@OfficialDSSNG with tweets. These guys can easily be picked up, we can see their faces clearly. Just arrest the leaders .
@mrlurvy Taking a closer look at this guy, I know for sure that if all he should win the governorship, he will defect back to APC. This guy has common sense than Seyi Makinde.
I recently came across a video by Arabinrin @AderonkeW , and it reinforced a conviction I have held for a long time: Nigeria must take its national affairs far more seriously than we currently do.
One of the things that troubles me most is how easily we forget. Individuals who played central roles in creating many of the challenges we face today often escape accountability, reinvent themselves, and return to offer the very prescriptions that failed in the first place. A serious nation cannot continuously recycle failure and expect different outcomes.
There must be consequences for bad governance, poor judgment, wasteful policies, and the reckless management of public resources. Not because we seek vengeance, but because accountability is the foundation upon which responsible leadership is built. When failure carries no consequences, it inevitably reproduces itself.
This is why I have little patience for the rising chorus of populism masquerading as policy. Many of the loudest voices calling for a return to the past are offering Nigerians nothing more than a repackaging of ideas that have already been tried, tested, and found wanting. The country has paid too much to keep repeating the same mistakes.
My position is clear. The difficult but necessary reforms initiated under President @officialABAT are directionally correct. They were never going to be painless because decades of distortions cannot be corrected overnight. Subsidies that enriched a few at the expense of the many, multiple exchange-rate regimes that encouraged arbitrage, and a culture of living beyond our productive capacity were never sustainable foundations for national development.
What Nigeria requires now is not panic, policy reversals, or emotional politics. What we need is consistency, measurement, evaluation, and the discipline to stay the course.
I support these reforms not because they are perfect, but because I understand the alternative. I have watched our politics long enough to know that postponing hard decisions only compounds the eventual cost. Nations rise when they confront reality, not when they run from it.
President Tinubu and his economic team deserve credit for having the courage to undertake reforms that many knew were necessary but lacked the political will to pursue. The @cenbank, despite enormous pressure and criticism, has remained committed to restoring credibility, stability, and confidence in the financial system. Leadership is not always about doing what is popular; sometimes it is about doing what is necessary.
Nigeriaโs task now is to move deliberately from Reform to Prosperity. That journey requires patience, sacrifice, and a shared national commitment to development over politics, production over consumption, and long-term progress over short-term applause.
I have made my choice. I stand with the difficult work of reform because I believe it offers the surest path to a stronger, more prosperous Nigeria.
The future belongs not to those who promise the easiest road, but to those who have the courage to build the right one.

@realbucketscout@BigKensyn@uch3_D_Fanatik Nothing to be ashamed of , Nigeria's d'tigress are just having a bad tournament. We already set the standard for other African teams, so Mali can try and equal it or surpass it.
@BigKensyn D'tigress are just having a bad tournament that's all. Nigeria women have already set the standard for other African team (quarter-finals) and the Olympics. There's nothing to be ashamed about. We learn from this and move on. Coach Rena has learned some lessons too.
