See Kidnapped victims in Ekiti State.
See how tarted and malnourished they looked as compared to how fresh those Oyo victim.
All I am saying is Thiefnubu and APC that used Chibok, can as well use Oyo.
Everything is Politics to those Demons!
Worsening Leadership Crisis in the Country Now Evident
The ultimate cost of uncompassionate leadership, as evident in the country today, is turning citizens’ frustration into deep, volatile resentment. It is even more traumatising when the leader presiding over that collapse demonstrates clear incapacity and a lack of compassion.
The government and people of Oyo State, more than 50 days after the abduction of the schoolchildren without any tangible effort toward their rescue, should rightly feel bitter and abandoned.
Since this unfortunate incident, I have spoken publicly about it twice, including appealing directly to the kidnappers to release the children. I also called the Governor twice to assure him of my solidarity, understanding that this issue is not just an Oyo problem but a Nigerian tragedy.
On Friday, July 3, I decided to travel to Ibadan with Prof. Pat Utomi to express solidarity with the Governor, as more than 50 days had elapsed without the rescue of the children and with numerous others still being held captive across the country.
During our two-hour meeting, I shared my experience in addressing insecurity as Governor of Anambra State. I recalled how President Olusegun Obasanjo, and later Presidents Umaru Musa Yar’Adua and Goodluck Jonathan, would personally call us several times whenever we faced major security challenges.
But, to my utmost shock, I discovered that, contrary to my assumption that they had been in regular communication over the matter, Governor Seyi Makinde had not received a single call from President Bola Tinubu.
I remember the only case of a school kidnapping during President Goodluck Jonathan’s era - the Chibok girls. It drew local and international attention. Even though the security agencies provided almost daily updates on their efforts, Nigerians and the rest of the world were outraged that it took President Jonathan over two weeks to call the then State chief Executive.
I vividly recall that the current President, Bola Tinubu, led a team of vocal critics who called for President Jonathan’s immediate resignation over the incident, citing his delay in calling the state governor. That call for IMMEDIATE RESIGNATION should actually be the case in this matter.
Today, under President Tinubu, there have been more than 13 school kidnappings, yet the President has found it difficult to call the affected state’s chief executive after more than 50 days (over 7 weeks). This is outrageous. I suspect the same may also have been the case in other school kidnapping incidents.
I cannot imagine any issue more important than the lives of our kidnapped children, their teachers, and the many other Nigerians being held captive across the country. It is now an indisputable fact that governance has completely collapsed under this administration.
The situation reflects a total lack of capacity and compassion, compounded by glaring insensitivity.
Amid such an apparent display of incompetence, the President should either resign or, at the very least, abstain from seeking re-election for the sake of our dear country. This call is patriotic, not political. A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO
The man they are calling a scammer and accusing of creating a fake agency has been seen all over with them.
The APC clearly has no regard for the intelligence of Nigerians.
Are you aware that by every parameter of humanitarian crisis Katsina is at a much worse state than Palestine?
Do you think the life of a fair skinned Muslim in the Middle East is better and more deserving of sympathy than your kins’ in Katsina?
I join Peter Obi in calling for the Grand Master of Corruption, Bola Ahmed Tinubu to resign.
Asiwaju, you have wrecked enough damage.
@officialABAT has become a threat to the corporate existence of Nigeria. He has exported his Alpha Beta opacity to national. Seyi papa spent roughly ₦9 trillion without appropriation.
Zero accountability.
No legislative oversight whatsoever.
The money grew wings & flew away.
A man who surrounds himself with Abubakar Atiku Bagudu & Gilbert Chagoury (men who were General Abacha’s bagmen) cannot be trusted with the public finances of Nigeria.
Chagoury is the owner of HITECH, the company in charge of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road.
So far, HITECH has received almost $15 billion worth of contracts from Asiwaju. Including the latest $516.33 million syndicated Federal Government loan for the Sokoto-Badagry road.
The loan was sourced from Deutsche Bank AG & it’s supported by a partial risk guarantee from the Islamic Development Bank's insurance arm.
Inflation is mad, cost of living is killing the living. Nigerians are asked to endure & tighten their belts. You are asked to sell akara, agbado, & kulikuli. In the meantime, Nigeria’s balance sheet is becoming more & more untidy:
Debt-to-GDP Ratio is 52.9%.
Total Public Debt is ₦159.28 trillion.
Total External Debt is $51.86 billion.
2026 Projected Debt Service is ₦15.5 trillion to ₦16 trillion, or approximately $11.6 billion.
Tinubu is borrowing to fund the ₦68.32 trillion budget deficit, with debt servicing projected to consume 48% to 75% of your federal revenues.
While they gaslight you, BAT will continue to recklessly & dangerously mortgage your future. He has displaced General Sani Abacha. Asiwaju is now the undisputed King of Grand Corruption
Grand Corruption: Nigeria’s Greatest Threat.
The recent report from the IMF consultation further raises concerns about the scale of grand corruption under the Tinubu government. The IMF now reveals that about N8.83 trillion in expenditure undertaken in 2025 is not reflected in the budget. This expenditure is not budgeted and is therefore not under legislative oversight or administrative scrutiny. This is horrible.
N8.83 trillion is as follows:
1.About 2% of our GDP.
2.Over 35% of Nigeria’s 2025 N23.96 trillion capital project budget. In fact, the amount is more than the actual released capital funding for 2025.
https://t.co/Hta3LViCB8 is more than the entire combined budget for education (N3.52 trillion) and health (N2.38 trillion).
If such an amount is properly used and accounted for, it could transform Nigeria’s public health and education sectors. It could create hundreds of cottage industries that can provide jobs for thousands of graduates and build a solid foundation for economic development. But we cannot account for it. This is not an isolated incident.
This is a pattern of grand corruption that has become part of this administration.
We have a lot to worry about regarding the state of corruption under President Tinubu. The sort of corruption that is ingrained in total disregard of elementary rules of public finance management poses a grave danger to national security and the stability of the Nigerian state. The capture of the Nigerian state and the plunder of its resources are actions that undermine the basis of state stability and deepen poverty and state failure.
This recent revelation proves that the APC government is grossly corrupt, incompetent, and insensitive. With the growing poverty and the urgent need for significant upgrades to social and physical infrastructure, a responsible and responsive government would ensure that N8.83 trillion is prudently utilised to address these gaps. But not the Tinubu administration.
A few days ago, I called on President Tinubu to resign from office for incompetence, lack of capacity, lack of compassion, and failure to improve on his campaign promises. Some people thought perhaps the call was excessive. But with the daily revelations of pervasive corruption in this administration and its total lack of commitment to the welfare and security of Nigerian citizens, the only reasonable action is for President Tinubu to resign from office. The collapse of elementary forms of due process under Tinubu and the increased evidence of rampant looting of Nigerian public finances reinforce the need for greater accountability. It is now time for Nigerian citizens to rise within the law and hold this administration to account.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
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!
Chance Visits to INEC Registration Centres
On my return to Anambra State yesterday, and on my way to attend some scheduled engagements, I made impromptu visits to the INEC voter registration centres at the Civic Centre, Nibo, and Nrijiofor Primary School, Nri.
I was pleased to see Nigerians registering to vote. I took the opportunity to commend those who had turned out and to encourage every eligible citizen to do the same. I reminded them that the journey to good governance does not begin on Election Day; it begins with voter registration. Registering to vote is not just a civic responsibility — it is an investment in the Nigeria we all desire.
I urged everyone who is eligible but has not yet registered to do so without delay. I also appealed to those who have already registered to encourage their family members, friends, neighbours, and colleagues to take advantage of the ongoing exercise before the deadline.
Every registered voter strengthens our democracy and brings us one step closer to building the secure, united, productive, and prosperous Nigeria we all seek.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
