It was Lagos that gave Africa its richest man, not Kano. Aliko Dangote is a Lagos man. Again, it was not Kano but Lagos that gave Africa its second richest man, Abdulsamad Ishaq Rabiu (BUA). Lagos made almost everybody who is who in Nigeria.

[Habu Sadeik @HabuSadeik]

Indirect primaries = complain
Direct primaries = complain
Consensus = complain

It's not by law, we are systematically corrupt and loves the dysfunctional system until it stopped favouring us.

It is well.

[Peacock @dawisu]

Direct primaries wato kato bayan kato ko? Ba da ni ba, wai gada a makabarta! If I were a candidate in any party’s 2026 primaries especially that of APC happening today, I would either accept the outcome of their already “arranged” consensus or simply stay away from the so-called direct primaries altogether!

In 2011, I contested for the State Assembly under the banner of the Congress for Progressive Change CPC. We held direct primaries across 11 wards. I won convincingly in 7 of them. But when the final result sheets emerged, the story had magically changed.

Because another candidate had bought over the party officials and agents responsible for conducting the exercise.

And here is the painful reality. That result sheet is your only evidence. If you decide to challenge the outcome in court, whatever is written on that paper becomes the “truth” the courts will rely on. Once the party leadership decides they don’t want you as their candidate, they simply hoard the original results, disappear with the process, and later produce whatever figures suit their agenda.

Shikenan. They’ve finished you politically before the real election even begins!

Still, you cannot stop people from contesting in direct primaries. Everyone believes their own case will be different. So sometimes, the only teacher left is experience itself. Let people participate and witness firsthand how deeply flawed and manipulated our version of internal party democracy can be in Nigeria.

My father always says there are three kinds of people who never want to hear the word “NO”

1. A man trying to date a woman
2. A politician contesting an election
3. A person seeking a loan

Tabbas, Baba ka yi gaskiya!

To everyone who has suffered injustice in the name of “democracy” in Nigeria, especially those participating in APCs direct primaries today, my sincere sympathies. Many people entered the process believing in fairness, only to discover that the outcome had already been written long before the voting started! Akwai kura a kasar nan!

In Kano, it’s now the norm: every time authorities demolish a building 🏗️🚜, the site instantly becomes a haven for scavengers, vandals, and non-state actors known as ‘Yan Jari Bola / Yan Gwan Gwan’. This new wave of thievery is getting out of control with dangerous repercussions

We have a serious education problem in northern Nigeria. A lot of the children who pass through primary and secondary school still can’t read and write properly and they can’t comprehend even simple instructions. Something needs to change.

“Vice President Kashim Shettima, repeatedly warned all the aides in his office, in my presence, never to approach any government agency for contracts or favours, emphasising his familiar caveat: We must carry our poverty with dignity - says @gimbakakanda SSA Research and Analytics, OVP.

This is exemplary as It sets a clear standard of accountability and restraint that should be emulated across all government MDAs. Heads of Government agencies must take decisive steps to regulate the conduct of their aides and reinforce a culture of transparency, responsibility, and public trust.

[Charles Onyango-Obbo @cobbo3]

25 World-Beating African “Institutions”, YES! (In No Particular Order)
1. The Springboks. South Africa:
A rugby team that mastered trauma, tactics, and timing. Sometimes wins ugly. Wins far too often.
2. Visit Rwanda + Kigali City:
Radical rebranding turned into civic discipline. Cleanliness so enforced it feels constitutional.
3. Tangier Med Port. Morocco:
Europe’s backyard reminder that Africa can run logistics at scale and on schedule.
4. Patrice Motsepe. South Africa:
A one-man institution. Mining wealth turned into thoughtful philanthropy and continental football order. As CAF president, he stabilised finances, raised prize money, enforced governance, and made African football bankable again.
5. Kenya’s long-distance running culture:
No ministry. No manifesto. Just altitude, discipline, and ruthless peer competition.
6. Ethiopia’s long-distance running culture:
More monastic than Kenya’s. Less noise. Suffering as syllabus.
7. Afrobeats. Nigeria, exported globally:
Beat visas, gatekeepers, and taste police. Lagos hacked the global playlist unapologetically.
8. Noor Ouarzazate Solar Complex. Morocco:
Desert turned into electrons. Scale without apology. Climate ambition that actually plugs in.
9. Nigerian creative writing ecosystem. Nigeria:
A brutal, brilliant informal university. Global literature fuelled by chaos, irony, and tight prose.
10. M-Pesa. Kenya:
A financial disruption. Banks blinked. Copied everywhere in the worldl. Still ahead.
11. Mauritius International Financial Centre:
A small island running big systems. Africa’s most credible, imaginatively regulated gateway for capital.
12. Timkat Festival. Ethiopia:
Faith as mass choreography. No tickets. No influencers. World-class logistics, every year.
13. Egypt’s tourism civilisation stack.:
Five thousand years on, still unbeatable IP. Everyone else is still marketing.
14. Uganda’s specialty coffee revival:
An unsung revolution. From anonymous bulk to named origins and premium value.
15. Zeitz MOCAA and the Lagos art ecosystem. South Africa and Nigeria:
One anchors African art globally. The other produces it relentlessly.
16. Institut Pasteur de Dakar. Senegal:
African science that ships vaccines. Quiet competence.
17. Botswana’s diamond governance model:
Resource wealth without national self-destruction. Boring. Disciplined. Rare.
18. Mauritius public administration:
Courts that work. Tax codes that make sense. The state as service, not threat.
19. Ethiopian Airlines:
A flag carrier that behaves like a ruthless business. Profitable, punctual, pan-African before it was fashionable.
20. South African jazz tradition:
Music as archive and resistance. Marabi to Cape Jazz. Improvisation as history.
21. Marrakesh’s tourism machine. Morocco:
Design, food, festivals, rhythm. Ruthlessly curated magic.
22. Nigeria’s startup ecosystem:
Chaos as advantage. Speed as strategy. World-class ideas.
23. Lesotho Highlands Water Project:
A mountain kingdom exporting water to South Africanindustrial giant. Infrastructure as leverage.
24. The Cotonou Voodoo Market. Benin:
A unique ancient spiritual economy that still functions. Belief, commerce, and continuity.
25. African mothers. Pan-African:
The most overworked, under-credited institution on the continent. Runs households, economies, morals, and futures. No bailouts. Still standing.
