"I laughed over the Ycee 'Olodo Uprising' topic, not because I found it funny, but because he was identifying something in his time. However, he was seeing the latter stage of something that started in my own generation when I was probably his age.
I spoke about weaponized ignorance for the first time in 1994 when I wrote a piece on it. He is identifying the same phenomenon. The 'Olodo Uprising' was fathered by weaponized ignorance."

Information is truly power. Road safety official stopped me at traffic light for using my phone while driving. Didn’t argue or deny. I asked him to issue me a ticket. He said the ticket is N48,000 for my offense, I pulled up this website and showed him, he said the website
I can’t focus. That video hasn’t left my mind all day.
That boy saw death coming and kept begging, pleading with someone who is meant to protect him to spare his life.
The officer wasn’t even in uniform. He picked up a rifle and still went through with it. There were moments to stop (the rifle didn't work after multiple trials), to rethink, to choose differently… but he didn’t.
It’s beyond cruel. Insanity!
Terrible. Terrible people.
The young man in this picture was abducted by Nigerian police, tied up and casually shot to death in broad daylight.
Pls lend your voice.
Pls share for the whole world to see.

Dear Nigerian Medical Association @nationalnma
Are you aware of the allegations that Dr. Ogbomade Samson Romani was beaten up by patient relatives and now he's dead
Is his death going to be one of those deaths we only reference?
When is the @PoliceNG going to bring his killers to justice?

I went to this hospital at Adeniyi Jones, Ikeja Lagos
I wanted to see the gynecologist.
I paid for registration, 23,766
Paid for consultation, 119,000
Paid for tests close to 350k (it was about three hundred and forty something)
Minus my T.fare o
Now after close to a month, my results are ready. Oya o, tell me what the tests says. NO, I HAVE TO PAY 64,000 FIRST before the gynecologist can interpret what my tests says.
I almost lost it with them! They said it's the policy.
And frankly i don't have 64k to pay for tests interpretation. I told them to send the results to my mail.
I'm so heartbroken and disappointed.
