Nigeria has now been delisted from the International Maths Olympiad, whose finals are happening in Shanghai, China, this July.
It is one of the most prestigious academic competitions in the world.
Nigeria can now only participate as an observer nation, while other countries can participate fully.
This was because of the Ministry of Education’s inability to fund students for 4 consecutive years through National Mathematical Center.
It’s a big shame for Nigeria.
@woye1@PeterObi So when same BAT demanded that GEJ should resign, Nigeria was on a parliamentary dispensation.? Maybe your suffering from selective amnesia...
Esteemed Aare Dele Momodu,
While your clarion call for national reconciliation, re-orientation, and reconstruction resonates with the patriotic soul, one must interrogate the arithmetic of recycled ambition that masquerades as elder statesmanship.
The polity aches not merely from combustive tensions, but from the perennial spectacle of familiar faces clutching at power like ancient mariners to sinking vessels.
Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, that indefatigable itinerant of the presidential ballot, has graced us with his candidacy more times than some nations change constitutions.
There exists a gentleman's covenant of zoning, born of our federal fragility, which wisdom and equity demand we honour.
To ignore it is to court the very ethnic and religious conflagration you fear.
True statesmanship would see him lend his considerable weight to the singular, competent vessel of renewal in our time — Peter Obi — for this one consequential term, thereby conserving his own reservoir of experience for 2031, should the republic still summon him.
Let not desperation cloak itself in the garb of bridge-building.
The New Nigeria shall not be midwifed by the ghosts of elections past, but by the audacity of fresh, unencumbered competence.
I remain proudly obident ✌️
Yesterday defenders of democracy, today's destroyers, What a shame.
What an irony of history, that the acclaimed defenders of democracy and human rights who claimed to have fought for democracy during the era of General Sani Abacha now find themselves worse than the man they opposed.
Today, General Sani Abacha, once presumed face of oppression, will be remembered as seemingly more democratic and more respectful of human rights than the so-called champions of activism from the NADECO days. Power indeed reveals character.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

No new teaching hospital built, now new university built, all federal roads are in a state of disrepair, insecurity continues to rise, agriculture sector dying due to imports, federal contractors havent been paid since 2024.
Yet Tinubu is asking to borrow another 6 billion dollars.
Are we jinxed or under a spell?😭☹️
