“Everything has cøllapsed in Nigeria. As of 1959, Nigeria’s National Shipping Line owned 6 vessels; by 1961, they owned 8 vessels, and it kept increasing. But today, they have no vessel.
I read today in the newspaper that when Emirates Airlines started in 1985, they started with two leased planes. At that time, Nigeria had over 20 planes. But today, Emirates Airlines has over 280 planes, while Nigeria’s own is now zero.
If today you’re critically ill in Nigeria and you go to the hospital, you might likely end up at the mørtuary. That’s why many Nigerians like taking ill people to church instead of hospital.”
— Mr. Peter Obi, speaking during a town hall meeting in Rivers State.
lack of consequences is exactly what is fucking this country up.
you shouldn’t be able to say this kind of statement and go scot free whether legally or otherwise tbh.
65 FREE SURGERIES FOR 65 CHILDREN
Yesterday, I attended the final follow-up clinic and appreciation programme at Mother Mary Hospital, Isolo, Lagos, following the successful completion of 65 free surgeries for children to mark my 65th birthday.
I am deeply grateful to God Almighty for guiding the medical team throughout the process and for granting all 65 children safe and successful surgeries.
The surgeries, led by Dr Folaseye Adebayo and her dedicated team, included adenotonsillectomy. This procedure removes enlarged or chronically infected tonsils and adenoids, which can cause breathing difficulties, recurrent infections, and sleep-related problems in children.
What made the occasion particularly touching was listening to parents share their testimonies and hearing how these procedures have improved their children’s health and quality of life.
My profound appreciation goes to @DrFolaseye Adebayo and her entire team, the hospital management, the parents, and everyone who contributed to making this initiative possible.
For me, birthdays are not merely occasions for celebration. They are opportunities to give back, touch lives, and make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
I thank God for the privilege of being part of this initiative and, most importantly, for the gift of 65 healthy and hopeful children.
May God continue to bless all those who dedicate their lives to saving and improving the lives of others.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
My first Uber ride in Nigeria in 2014 was in a 2011 Honda Accord.
It was N400. Short trip.
That was $2.40 at the time.
My most expensive Uber ride that year was just a little above N4,000.
About $24.
Anybody who did 10 such trips in a day made a minimum of $240.
With fuel at N97 and 25% platform fee, profit daily was at least $150 before bonuses.
That’s $900-$1,000 profit in a week.
$3,600-$4,000 in a month.
For context, a brand new 2014 Kia Optima or Hyundai Sonata was N5m. And you could pay over 5yrs.
Thats a monthly fee of $490.
Much lower for Cerato or Elantra—about $300-$350.
So with less than a week’s profit from Uber you had your brand new same year sedan monthly financing sorted.
Meanwhile a clean 2010 Corolla was 1.5m.
So paying $370 monthly, you cover the cost of buying it in 2yrs.
Leaving a profit of well over $3,000 monthly to split between you and the owner, and you take the car after 2yrs.
Now you understand why so many middle class people were buying clean cars and putting them on the road as Uber.
Now you understand why they can drinks and sweets and were so clean.
Some were even top cars like Benzes and Highlanders.
And everyone wants to suddenly act like going from buying fuel at less than N100 when the minimum wage could buy 3 bags of rice to buying fuel at N,1500 when the minimum wage can barely buy one bag, and when the cost of the same 2010 Corolla despite going from being a 4yr old car to a 16yr old car is x5 the cost it was when it was a 4yr old car, would not torpedo the entire business model.
If Uber were making N200M MONTHLY in 2014, they were making FAR MORE THEN than if they are making N200M WEEKLY TODAY.
N200M a month then—$1.2M monthly.
N200M a week now—$571K monthly.
In the last 3 months, I have bought at least 4 fake products of everyday household necessities, not from roadside stalls, but from supermarkets. That should worry all of us.
This isn't only a supermarket problem, it happens in pharmacies, open markets, and online too, they all have an obligation to sell genuine products and goods.
It is a criminal offence to sell fake products in Nigeria.
So wherever you bought it, if you've recently bought a fake or substandard product, please don't let it slide. Do not leave it to God.
You can directly report to NAFDAC and FCCPC, or other relevant agencies.
If you cannot report it yourself, Lawyers for Civil Liberties (LACIVLER Development FOUNDATION) will submit such petition on your behalf. Fill the below:

This is what the media under Tinubu has refused to show you.

This man in white and his security personnel of @NSCDCrops beat up my driver, his offence was asking why they chose to runaway after bashing my car with kids inside. He came out to ask questions while recording them, the personnel attached to the man in white pounced on him.
I am from Australia and we saw reports of this girl wanting to lure Men so she can accuse them of rape
I hope everyone remembers and stay away from this false rape accuser
A Nigerian teenager was thrown in prison at 14 years old and his name was changed by the police and prison officials so that his family will never find him.
He was only released 18 years later. Why is this story not trending? Jesus!
Immigration is not the reason that you can’t get a hospital appointment, it’s the reason you can get one.
Please retweet for all the people who can’t seem to grasp that.
