My stance in politics is always to change anyone that did not perform well until the right leader is found.
Even if Atiku wins 2027 and does not do well for the country, by 2031 he should be replaced.
The Human Condition...
Governor Umaru Mohammed Bago was a friend of my late father, Alhaji Tijjani Usman Bulldozer (APC Party Chairman of Suleja LGA).
Even after my father passed away, I continued to stay in touch with him regularly. Every Friday, I would greet him because he was a cheerful person with a great sense of humor. I really enjoyed talking with him.
Even after he won his primary elections, we still spoke often. I called to congratulate him. At one point, I told him I was interested in getting a job with the Nigeria Customs Service, and he asked me to send him my slip, saying Insha Allah he would try to help. But around that time, he became busy with the governorship campaign, so I had to let the matter go.
After he became governor, we spoke one last time. He told me that from then on I should text him instead — you know, being a governor is no small responsibility.
Later, after he became governor, destiny made us meet again in Bida. It happened because his security team and I were staying at the same hotel. My colleagues and I had traveled from Lagos for work on behalf of our company.
We met the governor, and he recognized me. He welcomed me warmly, introduced me to some people, and was genuinely happy to see me. I was very happy too.
Then he called the guy whose picture I circled — his name is “Kolo.” He told him to collect my phone number and said that whenever I wanted to see him, I should contact Kolo. He also instructed them to give me some money, and afterward I returned to Lagos.
After I completed my NYSC, I messaged Kolo, but he claimed he didn’t know me. I sent him this picture, and he admitted it was indeed him, but he still acted like he didn’t recognize me. I tried everything I could, but he refused to help me make any connection. Eventually, I just left the matter alone and said to myself that if it is destined, Allah will create another opportunity for us to meet again.
What still confuses me is why he refused to connect me with the governor.
The only thing I would have asked for was a job. But he completely refused.
Still, I believe that if it is meant to be, one day I will meet the governor again — whether he likes it or not.

BREAKING: The Federal High Court in Abuja has restrained INEC from recognising any state congresses conducted by committees appointed by the David Mark-led caretaker leadership of the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Delivering judgment on Wednesday, Justice Joyce Abdulmalik held that the responsibility for conducting state congresses rests with the party’s state executive committees, not the national leadership.
The court further ruled that the four-year tenure of the ADC’s State Working Committees and State Executive Committees remains valid and subsisting, pending the conduct of properly constituted congresses and the convocation of a national convention.
Justice Abdulmalik also held that neither the Nigerian Constitution nor the party constitution empowers the caretaker/interim National Working Committee, led by David Mark, to appoint committees to conduct state congresses.
The judgment is on the suit marked: FHC/ABJ/CS/581/2026 filed by Don Norman Obinna, Johnny Tovie Derek, Obah C. Ehigiator, Hon. Olona Yinka, Dr. Charles Idowu Omideji, Samuel Pam Gyang, and Obianyo Patrick as plaintiffs, suing for themselves and on behalf of all State Chairmen and State Executive Committees of the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

My full speech today in Kano, at the Arewa Twitter Connect, I didn’t just speak, I spoke from everything I’ve lived. It is long but definitely worth listening till until the end
From starting with nothing…
To building something that now creates opportunities for others…
My message was simple:
We are not the leaders of tomorrow.
Tomorrow has already come.
We are the leaders of today.
This generation must move beyond talk. Beyond timelines. Beyond noise. Into action, into structure, into impact.
The North cannot rise in isolation. Nigeria cannot rise in division. Our strength is in unity, across regions, across tribes, across mindsets.
If we truly want power, opportunity, and progress, then we must build together, support each other, and lead with purpose. The responsibility is no longer ahead of us. It is already in our hands.
