These children in Abor village, Enugu State have been attending Maths classes every day except Sundays since July.

They are so passionate about it. In short, we have reached every child of school age in that village and ensured that they learn maths daily.

The feedback has been amazing. They have 2 sessions every day.

You can literally stop a random child in that village to ask a maths question, and they will solve it on the spot.

The future is looking exciting.

Dear Lagosians,

If the last 27 years have taught you ANYTHING, anything at all, it should be this:

"Ojú bọ̀ọ̀rọ̀ ò gb'ọmọ l'ọ́wọ́ èkùrọ́".

The next elections really are about your future and that of your children.

I assure you, that in the competent, compassionate and capable hands of @GRVlagos and myself, Lagos State can be so much more than it is right now, and Lagosians should not be begging for their pension or anything else for that matter.

Lagos TRULY has no business with poverty, homelessness or hunger, and yet, here we are today.

We all want to take Lagos State to the next level, to even greater than the late great Alhaji Lateef Kayode Jakande took it.

To do that, we must resist the devils, and they shall surely flee before us, and together, we can Make Èkó Great Again. #MEGA2027

No more Mister Nice Guy.

Warmest Regards,

Babatunde O. Gbadamosi

It was an absolute pleasure working with @_bedge on HE Peter Obi’s campaign portraits.

Bedge is a long-standing and highly regarded photographer whose work has received international recognition, including features in publications such as British Vogue. Working with someone who has spent years mastering his craft was a privilege.

It also speaks to something Peter Obi consistently emphasizes: the ability to recognize expertise, bring the right people together, and allow everyone to contribute their best towards achieving the desired outcome.

That is exactly what Nigeria needs. A country where competence comes first, where we bring the best hands to the table and work together to get the job done. We need a leader with the capacity, compassion, competence and physical stamina to move around, listen to Nigerians, understand their challenges and solve problems.

Nigeria needs the best man for the job and that man is Peter Obi.

This is Emmanuella Ngaha and Jason Ngaha this morning in Enugu as our 2-week bootcamp commences.

I just learned that their mom had a brain tumor while their dad has both kidney failure.

This is too much for these children to bear, and they have been out of school since December.

We will ensure that they return to school this September and fulfill their dreams.

They are both so brilliant, and the world will celebrate their greatness.

I was heartbroken to learn about these students today.

Their dad had both kidneys fail and no one could fund their education. They were forced to drop out of school in December last year.

Their names are Emmanuella Ngaha and Jason Ngaha. They came by themselves from Owerri to Enugu this morning to attend our 2-week intensive bootcamp.

They were both high-flying students at Ambassador College, Ota. The boy was the best in Maths and Chemistry in SS1, and the girl has won so many national awards.

Today they are out of school with no hope of continuing.

They decided to use their last ₦24,000 to take a bus to Enugu to attend the bootcamp.

Unfortunately, this morning they were defrauded of the ₦24,000, which left them with no option but to beg for transport support until someone helped them.

A lot of young, bright children are going through a lot that is beyond their control.

We can’t let these bright stars lose their shine because of challenges beyond their control.

THE HAWKER IS NOW A MASTER’S DEGREE HOLDER

I grew up around Ojo Local Government and spent most of my childhood/teenage years there. I had hawked everything you can imagine in that area. I used to hawk past Lagos State University, Ojo.

Today, I have two different degrees from same University and I am super proud of what God has made out of my life.

So, yes it’s just a Master’s Degree but it is a Master’s Degree being earned by the one who use to hawk around the same school.

I’m happy to wear this gown again as a Master’s Degree holder in International Relations and Strategic Studies from the prestigious Lagos State University, Ojo.

To you readers, I am an embodiment of HOPE! No matter your situation today, keep pushing, keep your integrity intact. Work hard and pray only with faith. Just like my Brother (from another mother) @UnkleAyo do say, “just don’t die, time is your ally”.

Campaign starts today and this is why I’m supporting Peter Obi.

I will also be supporting and posting various candidates too in the NDC. It will be a marathon race.

Let us all support them.

[oseni rufai @ruffydfire]

The reason why ADELEKE triumphed is that voters came out 43% percent is better than the recent voter turnout

If at least 60m people come out in 2027 the elections will be too big to rig

Nigerians must come out

Dear Nigerians,

THIS IS HOW TO DEFEAT THE APC:

We must apply Davido’s method in 2027.
Elections in Nigeria are still 90% manual.
So we must have the physical copies of EC8A.

We must make sure that form EC8A & eECD8A (electronic EC8A) are uploaded to iREV in our presence. NDC must have a National Collation Center. They MUST provide Nigerians with (176,846 x 3) = 530,538 polling unit agents to police the 176,846 PUs across the country.

They MUST have (8,809 x 3) =26,427 agents policing the 8,809 wards across Nigeria as well.

These agents must be well-trained & paid well!

We must make sure our polling unit results are uploaded on the iRev & the figures are entered on eECD8A (electronic EC8A) in our presence.

All the results must be uploaded in real-time or as soon as internet network becomes available.

INEC OFFICIALS MUST NEVER BE ALLOWED TO LEAVE THE PU, UNTIL ALL RESULTS ARE UPLOADED TO iREV. Then we follow the votes to the WARD & STATE COLLATION CENTERS!

We must be fearless. We must continue to raise alarm & face APC rigging machine head-on.

We must follow the votes bumper to bumper!

If NDC provides 530,538 agents & we follow these steps meticulously, Nigerians will win!

If he passes JAMB, we will find a way around his school fees. He will stay in school.

He can do his menial jobs while in school.

I farmed, rode motorcycle, transported lumber, did painting, capentry, generator repairs just to stay in school.

He will survive.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

I have been thinking about something lately, and the more I think about it, the more disturbing it becomes.

A lot of Nigerians became poor without doing anything wrong.

They didn’t stop working. They didn’t become lazy. They didn’t suddenly become irresponsible.

They simply woke up one day and realised that the money they had worked for could no longer buy the things it used to buy.

Think about someone earning ₦100,000 a month.

The person still wakes up early every morning, goes to work, puts in the same hours, probably works even harder, gets promoted occasionally and does everything society says a responsible person should do.

Yet every year, that person seems to be able to afford less.

At some point, ₦50,000 could buy a reasonable amount of food for the house. Today, you can enter the market with the same ₦50,000 and genuinely wonder where the money went.

Nothing happened to you.

The economy happened to you.

And I think this is something we don’t talk about enough.

Imagine working hard for years, only for circumstances completely outside your control to quietly reduce the value of everything you have worked for.

You didn’t lose your job.

You didn’t lose your salary.

But somehow, you lost your standard of living.

That is poverty too.

And this is why I struggle with the way we sometimes discuss palliatives.

Of course, when people are hungry, you must find ways to help them immediately. There is nothing wrong with providing temporary relief.

But surely, the bigger question should be:

Why did millions of working Nigerians suddenly need palliatives in the first place?

If a man could comfortably buy a bag of rice from his salary a few years ago and today he needs government assistance to buy that same bag of rice, giving him rice may solve today’s hunger.

But it has not solved the actual problem.

The real problem is that his labour has lost value.

And perhaps that is what we should be obsessed with fixing.

How do we make the Nigerian worker’s income valuable again?

How do we make ₦100,000 buy more next year, rather than less?

How do we make food cheaper by producing more?

How do we reduce the cost of energy and transportation?

How do we build an economy where salaries can actually keep up with the cost of living?

Because when I think deeply about it, perhaps one of the greatest things a government can do for its people is not to keep giving them money.

It is to build an economy where the money they earn has value.

There is dignity in being able to take care of yourself from the product of your own labour.

There is dignity in a teacher being able to feed a family from teaching.

There is dignity in a nurse being able to pay rent from nursing.

There is dignity in a young person working an honest job and gradually seeing life improve.

People should be able to look back after five years of hard work and say, “My life has become better.”

Not, “I earn more money today, but somehow I can afford less.”

That is the part that keeps bothering me.

Millions of Nigerians are not asking to become millionaires overnight.

They just want hard work to make sense again.

And maybe that should be one of the simplest ways we measure whether our economy is actually working:

Is the ordinary Nigerian who works hard becoming progressively better off, or progressively poorer?

Everything else is secondary.
