Earlier this month, my dear sister @AishaYesufu called to give me the disturbing information that there were no computers, functional laboratories, or electricity in the Secondary School in Chibok, the same school where over 200 girls were sadly kidnapped by Boko Haram in 2014, with 70 still unaccounted for.

With a population of over 2,500, the school had only one desktop computer. Aisha Yesufu respectfully requested that I buy an additional two and help install solar lighting, even if it was only for the computer classroom.

While I was trying to contact His Excellency, my brother Governor Zulum, to enable me to visit the school, I was advised against doing so due to security concerns.

Aisha Yesufu accordingly arranged a meeting between me and the Chibok community leaders in Abuja, where I presented them with 10 laptops and 3 printers as a start. I also donated the sum of ₦2 million each towards providing some items for the lab, the computer classroom, and a handheld motorised borehole, totalling ₦6 million.

I promised to do more and made it clear to them that what I was doing was not a donation, but a sincere commitment and a promise to the future of our community.

However, occasions like this are deeply disturbing and cause me to reflect and personally question our priorities and the rising costs of misgovernance.

One wonders why we live in a nation where our students don’t have labs, books, or even pencils, while our leaders live in opulence, spending billions to renovate conference centres, build car parks, and furnish new lodges of international standards.

I continue to plead on behalf of all of us that the time has come for self-examination. We must prioritise critical areas of development, education, healthcare, and pulling our people out of poverty. -PO

Today, in Abuja, along with several other notable persons, I attended the presentation of the book titled OBI: The Political Change Agent, written by the respected journalist Ike Abonyi, former Group Political Editor of ThisDay Newspapers and the founding Deputy Managing Director of New Telegraph Newspaper.

Ike Abonyi did a very good job chronicling not just a political journey, but a call for transformational leadership rooted in competence, capacity character, and compassion.
The event was also used to mark the rebirth of the Obidient Movement, an organic body formed by Nigerians who are delirious of creating a new Nigeria.
The keynote speaker at the occasion, Prof Sam Amadi, who spoke on the inevitability of a new Nigeria, provoked thoughts on how and why a new Nigeria is inevitable.
At the event, I reiterated what I have always stood for, that our votes must count and that democracy must reflect the will of the people, not the manipulation of a few.

Nigeria is at a critical crossroads, and the need for sincere, accountable leadership has never been greater. The fight is not about personal ambition, it is about the future of our children, the integrity of our institutions, and the soul of our nation.

We must continue to believe in a new Nigeria, one built on justice, equity, and service to the people.

A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

I came across multiple reports of students being asked to attend a public examination by 6:30 AM, teenagers, mostly around 15-17 years old, forced to travel in the dark, even in the face of insecurity, across dangerous and unfamiliar locations, because they want to get the basic right of education and sit for JAMB examinations.

Setting exams for vulnerable teenagers as early as 6:00 AM while transporting them across far-flung locations is reckless.

Already, reports are emerging of students getting into accidents and losing their young lives, some going missing, and many more being subjected to unnecessary trauma. Who takes responsibility when a 15- or 16-year-old child disappears or is harmed while trying to access their right to education?

This situation sadly exposes a deeper, systemic failure: Nigeria simply does not have enough universities and exam centres to cater to its youth.
Today, Nigeria has just about 200 universities for a population of over 200 million people. That alone means one university for every one million citizens, a very disturbing and staggering ratio that shows the dilapidated level of the country’s access to education.

According to the data from the UNESCO Institute for Statistics and IndexMundi, countries aiming for good development, strong economies, and broad access to higher education are expected to target a Gross Enrollment Ratio (GER) of at least 40%
And according to these statistics, Nigeria with a population of about 230 million people and about 200 universities has a GER of about 12%

In comparison with other countries with a high population, for example, Indonesia with about 280 million people has over 4,000 tertiary institutions and stands at a ratio of about 1 university per 70,000 people and a GER of over 45%. The country has over 10 million students enrolled in tertiary education alone spanning across various ages.

Indonesia’s substantial investment in education is evident in its university-to-population ratio, supporting its large student population. Nigeria’s GER, on the other hand, is significantly below the global average, showing the urgent need for substantial investment in education, which would, in turn, yield national growth and development.

Indonesia, unlike Nigeria, has universities scattered across every region, making access to exams, learning, and opportunity far more democratic and safer.

If we had even half of Indonesia’s educational infrastructure, which would be about 2,000 universities, the Nigerian child would not be forced into life-threatening journeys just to write an exam and still face challenges of university acceptance after performing well.

Education is not a luxury or expense, It is the biggest contributor to development for any nation, and therefore most important investment any nation can do for development.

You cannot claim to want development while starving our young the access to knowledge. You cannot claim to value your citizens while risking the lives of teenagers every examination season.

We must aggressively and intentionally expand our education system.

We must strive to match our population with access to education.

Our young generation should not be endangered because they desire education. We must do better as a nation and ensure that our future leaders get the new Nigeria that they deserve.

A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Do you agree that the Supreme Court must intervene and REVERSE Alvin Bragg and Judge Merchan's rigged guilty verdict against Trump?

YES or NO?

I am a young lawyer and law abiding citizen practicing in Nigeria. My N17m may have gone down the drain in Heritage Bank. NDIC's insurance is a joke.  They say they are offering us 5m maximum statutory insurance payment. Means that poor Nigerians and small businesses would lose whatever amount they have if they are given N5m. NDIC's promise that they will pay the rest of depositors' funds after liquidation, we all know, is a joke. Several times, I tried to withdraw my money last month but withdrawals were restricted. I did all I could to no avail. No way. They told us thay the bank was speaking with investors. We all had faith that CBN will keep to their promise that never again would CBN watch and allow banks fail and depositors' funds to sink. We had faith that they would deal with the bank like they dealt with Skye Bank and intervened with the bridge bank structure that materialised to Polaris Bank, which ensured that poor depositors never lost a dime in deposit funds. I had faith in CBN's reassurance that they will never let any bank fail again. Why would a Central Bank let a bank fail in 2024 with no guarantee of FULLY and IMMEDIATELY returning depositors' funds? What more can erode faith in the banking system and financial system than the fact that the CBN can wake up one morning and revoke the licence of a bank they have held out to be a bank they licence and supervise?

@DonaldTNews TRUMP UP THE IDEAS MR PRESIDENT. GOD BLESS YOU MORE SIR

[💸 @TFKhaleed]

On @PeterObi It's great to see that his influence is spreading across the African continent, from Ghana, Cameroon to Ivory Coast, and even as far as Kenya and Zimbabwe. Who knew that a Nigerian politician could have such a far-reaching impact?

like Obi is on a mission to collect all the African countries like Pokémon, but instead of throwing Poké Balls, he's throwing out ideas for development and change. And with each new country he visits, his influence grows stronger, like a political version of the Infinity Stones.

But seriously, it's refreshing to see a Nigerian politician who is not only focused on his own country but also on the betterment of the entire continent. It's almost as if he's trying to create a real-life Wakanda, minus the Vibranium and the high-tech gadgets.

So, here's to @PeterObi the man who's showing the world that African leaders can be a force for positive change, both at home and abroad. And who knows, maybe one day we'll all be saying "Wakanda forever" in his honor.

Many Nigerians in the United Kingdom voted yesterday.

Many got to the UK just about 6 months ago, they are qualified to vote because they are citizens of a commonwealth nation.

No harassment! No one asked if they are from Ekiti State Nigeria or from Kano State.

They were not disenfranchised because they bear Igbo or Hausa names or because of the color of their skin.

Nobody carried protest banner to say Our London Not their London.
