"Nigerian society is no longer celebrating academic excellence. It’s not even Yahøø culture anymore; now we have a 'Peller culture.' This 'Olodo' uprising we are witnessing is terrible. It feels like we are trying so hard to accommodate ignorance so people won’t feel bad, and now they seem to be the majority. The massive att@ck on Nigeria’s educational system is alarming, aside from kidn@ppings and Bøko Haram att@cks."

VDM struggled, did all manner of things he could and finally his hustle paid off. He then looked back and uplifted his brother, today his brother is really comfortable, he can easily afford Anything he wants now all thanks to VDM. His brother is a millionaire today all thanks to men's nature of uplifting others.
Imisi (Opeyemi "Imisi" Ayanwale), the Season 10 (2025) winner abandoned her family immediately she won the 2025 BBN, she distanced herself from her family. Ilebaye, Phyna and the rest of female celebrities i can count abandoned their families as soon as they started seeing the cash. Their money is their money, not for their brothers upliftment. Regina Daniels has been a celebrity for years, she got married to a billionaire for years she couldn't think of how to empower her brother Sammy.
VDM singlehandedly pushed Kokopee music, supported him, appeared even in his viral videos. Show me one female celebrity who has done so for her own brother. Throughout the years Regina was with Ned Nwoko, show me one good thing she did for her brother Sammy West. Mention one!
Our 001 Davido has always been uplifting everyone he crosses paths with including women, how many people have you seen Tiwa Savage dash ordinary 3,500 naira on social media? How many people have you seen any of these female celebrities uplift or assisted in life without even lying about it or using the person to make content? Mention one female celebrity in the comments i will wait.
Investing and empowering women is a waste!
Women don't distribute wealth, if you elect a woman in Nigeria as the President. Our economy will be more terrible than it is today. Tinubu will be better.
Even the so-called women supporting women does not apply to making their fellow women rich, it's only when it's time for them to pull someone down, help their fellow women become a miserable and hopeless divorcee is when you will see women.
Sermons over!
PTDF COLLEGE OF PETROLEUM AND ENERGY STUDIES KADUNA RENAMED BY THE PRESIDENCY
The Management of the Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF) wishes to officially notify the general public, our academic partners, stakeholders, and the energy community of a strategic institutional renaming.
In alignment with the presidential directive issued by His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, the PTDF College of Petroleum and Energy Studies, Kaduna, has been officially renamed. The institution will now be known and addressed as the General Shehu Musa Yar'Adua University of Geological Sciences and Engineering Technology.
This historic renaming honors the enduring legacy of the late statesman, General Shehu Musa Yar'Adua, celebrating his profound contributions to national unity and the democratic journey of Nigeria.
The institution remains firmly committed to its mandate of delivering world-class research, specialized training, and cutting-edge engineering technology solutions to power Nigeria’s oil, gas, and renewable energy sectors. All ongoing academic programs, partnerships, and operations continue uninterrupted under this new institutional identity.
Signed,
Management
I’d break the Zlatan issue for many people including yourself. Narratives have traveled and I’ve come to conclude that many of you don’t even know what happened with Zlatan at Barcelona.
Zlatan’s major issue was with Pep, he had no single issue with Messi, none. Till date, he maintains that beef with Pep.
On Piers Morgan, Zlatan said the mistake he did when he got to Barcelona was trying to fit in. He got off a wrong start with Pep because he drove a Ferrari to training. In his words, he said Pep told him that, in this place, players don’t drive a Ferrari.
Zlatan said he didn’t drive his car for 7-8 months just to please Pep and try to fit in, which was his biggest regret.
Zlatan said he wasn’t performing and went to see Pep in his office. Firstly he went to meet the higher people up there in the hierarchy, but they told him that they can’t interfere and he should speak to Pep himself.
He went to meet Pep and told him that the new formation does not favor him. By the way, this is absolutely normal. I have attacked a video to Salah talking with Slot. In fact, you could hear Salah towards the end of that video say he was going to speak to Slot so they could change formations. This is normal in professional football. Players speak to their coaches, especially the big players.
Zlatan said the formation does not give him more freedom and it won’t get the best out of him. It’s best he does not play because he’s not performing, Pep is also egoistic, he benched Zlatan for 4 games in a row after that meeting.
Zlatan said he created fire afterwards, he started bringing his Ferrari to training and parking it in front of Pep’s office 😭.
He said when he went to Manchester United, Pep was at City and Pep will never look him in the eye.
I have been able to establish that Zlatan’s problem at Barcelona was Pep, he said it himself and this is the link. I don’t do GOAL, I do facts. (https://t.co/or7PLJDcxE)
How does Messi come into this?
Zlatan, in his book, said Messi spoke to Pep about switching formations, this formation switch is what affected him. He was playing better in the previous formation, and scoring. This new formation meant he had no freedom and that’s what he said on Piers Morgan, he went to see Pep.
This thing Zlatan said is what you guys have been running with.
You & I are not privy to the conversation Messi had with Pep. Both parties have never addressed this before to give their side of the story, if they have, you can share me a link of them saying it just like I shared you that link (not screenshots from GOAL please, be serious for once). If any of their mates have addressed this before, please share too. Again, Zlatan’s issue at Barcelona was with Pep right from day 1 of driving a Ferrari, this has nothing to do with Messi.
Let’s assume Messi spoke to Pep on changing formation, and Pep agreed, it’s on Pep and he’s the manager. Messi speaking to his manager is normal, just like Zlatan going to speak with Pep. If you listen to the video I attached of Salah, he clearly mentions he spoke to Slot on not defending, and he will still speak to Slot for them to adapt their formation because oppositions are finding out.
Players are in constant communication with their managers. Whatever they spoke about, Pep is the manager not Messi.
Easy with your bragging too, telling me you don’t just write and no one should dare you to bring evidences. After spending hours in your research, you even slept overnight, and the source you could reference is “Goal”😭
Listen to Zlatan talk about why he loves Messi so much, this was few days ago by the way

Stop creating issues where there’s none.
Is Nigeria doing better since 2023? Short answer: Hell NO!! Long answer: it depends on who you are and where you play.
For those who depend on capital markets and the FX market, the stability is a breath of fresh air. Emefiele and Buhari were idiots. Cardoso is great.
For those in the streets, things simply got worse. I have sent more to assist family members in the last 3 years than at any time in my life. Poverty increased.
The top-down approach will NOT work unless there are major interventions at the bottom. Dangote, Elumelu, or Otedola will not fix our roads or provide security; that is the government's job.
A healthy Nigeria at the bottom also benefits those at the top. I don't believe we have the luxury of things trickling down again. Remittances may be at great risk amid nationalist agitations and movements abroad.
Depending on the Diaspora to keep supporting a nation is impracticable. That was what Emefiele banked on for years, and it never worked. The Diaspora is tired. People are also thinking about their own lives and futures. Jobs are being lost, and AI is eating up the world.
If we don't build up our nation today, we will have no nation one day. We are slowly moving from Abegistan to TerrorStan. Security and Infrastructure should be priorities. A healthy foreign reserve balance doesn't help the man on the streets.
A new Nigeria is POssible when Nigeria is OK.

@akintollgate Akin. I thought you were smarter than this one o. So if you had $500-odd millions you'd spend it on grand prix in Nigeria. This same Nigeria we have kids in the bush? With our epileptic power supply? With our ever-increasing brain drain?
You can do better.
