525,000 a year
10,000 a week
1,400 a day.
These are the number of men that die by suicide.
Happy Men's Mental Health Month.
To every man reading this: you are not a burden, and you do not have to carry the weight of the world alone. Speaking up is real strength.
After the ₦2 million ransom was paid to the second group, on December 2, 2025, something unexpected happened that changed everything.
The young errand boy who delivered food and ran errands for the kidnappers was given just ₦15,000 from the ₦2 million ransom. Feeling cheated and angry, he became frustrated with them. In a moment that would change our lives, he dropped the keys to our chains and handcuffs and walked away, carrying only his gun and the clothes on his back.
The moment we noticed the keys, we quietly struggled to reach them. With trembling hands and pounding hearts, we managed to unlock our chains and handcuffs. We knew this was our only chance. Without looking back, we ran into the thick forest.
For three days, we trekked through the wilderness with little strength left in us. We were exhausted, hungry, dehydrated, and terrified of being caught again. Every step felt like a battle between hope and fear.
On the third day, we finally came across a farmer and his family harvesting beans on their farm. Desperate and weak, we explained what had happened to us. Moved by our condition, the farmer immediately called his son to help us get to the nearest village, Esanlu Esa in Kogi State.
By God's grace, there was an Army base in the village. The soldiers received us, listened to our story, and provided assistance. Later that same day, they helped us reach Ado-Ekiti.
That was the day my nightmare finally ended.
After everything I endured the chains, the hunger, the beatings, the fear, and the uncertainty, I escaped the kidnappers' den alive. It is a day I will never forget for the rest of my life. 💔🙏🏽😭
Foreign companies would come to Nigeria be running a program that pays workers and contractors well and as and when due. The moment they believe they established a stable system in Nigeria and hand over supervisory authority to Nigerians, BOOM!
Everything starts having hiccups. Everything delayed or entirely stopped. Employment of genuine experts die.
Who do you know or who sent you, starts. Everything starts to die.
Like government like peoples.
I cannot understand why God wants a relationship with clay. It's beyond me and my brain fails to compute it.
I read the scripture below and was quiet - that the outcome of deliverance was to bring Israel to Himself and to have a relationship/covenant with them:
"You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself. Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine. And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation." Exodus 19:4-6 NKJV
It's not the love that astounds me, even though that's immense. It's the sheer incredulity of God having a relationship with man. From where to where? Like he doesn't need us at all and could have created anything.
Men are so private online. A guy could be moving to another country or having his first child, and he’d still only post a random football score on his story.

@subomiplumptre Uhn!
I should look for "The Awe of God" and read up.
It appears the theme of the book would be similar to "The knowledge of the Holy One" by A . W. Tozer
Many of us are chickens for Jesus. We do most things afraid while our journey to lion-status is slow and lumbering.
We struggle with anxiety, panic attacks and fitful sleep. Yet we keep showing up.
There's this book I'm reading by John Bevere called The Awe of God. The thesis is, the bigger God is in your eyes and experience, the smaller human fears become.
Fingers crossed. 🤞🏾
They are attracted by cheap banking profits in Nigeria.
Collated money deposits from Nigerians invested in Govt Treasury instruments and bonds.
The Nigeria banking system is a cesspool of capitalist with no strong administrative control.
A system that pays you 6-7% for fixed deposit and maybe 2-3% for savings account (worst still, only when you did not withdraw from it within the month).
With deposit funds, they invest in Govt Treasuries and Bond for 16-18% making cheap profits off money they never worked for.
A system that runs on this model is only typical in Nigeria.
I dare say, if you want to a see a banking sector supporting real growth, make it illegal to invest deposit funds in Govt Bonds and Treasury instrument, better still, if they must invest depository fund in these money markets they do not have return grater that the fixed deposit rate.
If you do this, you will see lazy banks seek out real entrepreneurs to grow the profit. You will see actual bank sector that support ideas, entrepreneur proposals and seek out real fixed deposit and actual bank client.
It will return respect to the real people who make these money they gloat over.
Limit all these charges and useless fees they make for deposit, withdrawal and even stepping into the baking all.
A lot is wrong with Nigerian model of business.
Excellent performance is wayyyy cheaper than rigging
Just a fraction of the monies spent coercing followers would have delivered good governance and the good will needed for a sure return to office
If you’re dating someone and you can’t comfortably tell them 'I don’t have money for this right now' without feeling ashamed, you are in the wrong relationship. 🤷♀️
🚨 JUST IN: History vindicates the brave. A video from 2020 has resurfaced showing former CBN Deputy Governor Dr. Obadiah Mailafia exposing the roots of Nigeria's insecurity.
⚠️ He boldly warned us six years ago about how bandits transport weapons and alleged that a northern governor was named as a Boko Haram commander.
The evidence is staring us in the face. Watch and retweet this to expose the wicked politicians sponsoring this crisis!
Chibok.
The FG gave an order that schools should be shut down in that area.
The state government led by Shettima opened the school without informing the FG and without taking measures.
Guess what, nobody blamed Shettima. GEJ was blamed all through.
🚨 As a Kidnapping Survivor, I Can Tell You This: These Bandits Can Be Caught Easily
After confirming their location, the government can easily use night vision to track and attack them at night.
From my experience as a kidnapping survivor, these bandits are not as difficult to catch as people think. Most of them take hard drugs at night and sleep heavily until the next morning.
If not for the chains they used to lock us up, I would have escaped much earlier.
The government can deal with this problem if they truly want to. They know what they're doing, sha. 💔
At this point, na only God fit save person. 😭
