@ModestusRoberts @firstladyship As failure begets failure, success begets success! My gov, Alex Otti, could mentor men of the same mind and capacity to take over. Men who are ready to continue the good works, so that after he is done with his tenure, someone else continues.

@eebuchi Nice. This is where we also need private sector come and partner with the statement govt to raise good buildings and block.

[Big Sam @SamsonNdubuisi2]

@Humanxxx001 @eebuchi That's not rubbish bro. That comes with development. Naturally, humans migrate to where there is development and businesses too. Good things bring new challenges. This is new and should be brought to our gov's attention in time. May God bless Abia and Abians!

This is the kind of conversation that excites us: “My Lagos, not your Lagos.” Tribal politics. Empty pride. Useless quarrels that build nothing, that only tear deeper into the fragile fabric holding us together.

Yesterday, the United Nations reported that 139 million Nigerians now live in extreme poverty. One hundred and thirty-nine million human beings, breathing, hoping, starving. But that doesn’t move us. What moves us is the conviction that “Shinedu shouldn’t be governor of Lagos.” The same Shinedu who can trace his roots in this city five generations deep. The same Shinedu whose forebears helped lay its foundations.

Yesterday, I told a dear friend here that tribal jingoism has become our national pastime. Every conversation now bleeds with ethnic suspicion. Every debate is Igbo versus Yoruba, Fulani versus everyone else. We no longer argue ideas; we argue identities. We no longer defend principles; we defend tribes. And even I, in moments of weakness, have found myself dragged into this madness.

It hurts, man. It really does. Because this country, this chaos we call home, is all I have. I want to see it work. I want to wake up one morning and believe that the promise of Nigeria is not a cruel joke. But I can’t will it into being alone. I’m no Elijah. No Jesus.

This country will only work when all of us want it to, Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa, Efik, Tiv, Bini, Ijaw, Fulani, all of us, standing not as warring tribes but as wounded kin trying to heal what’s left.

And for that to happen, we must kill this reflex, this instant, ugly urge to blow the whistle of ethnic paranoia and call it culture. It is not culture. It is poison. It is the venom eating through the veins of our becoming.

Until we confront it, until we name it for what it is, insecurity masquerading as pride, we will keep sinking, applauding the fall as though it were our first flight to space.

@Max_Bobbiemus As in, it is so annoying. I, because of that, opened another Twitter account, made sure I controlled who I followed, and what I respond to. Yet, just opening a tweet, I get so many similar tweets on my TL. I'm currently losing interest on the app.

@it_Rutie ...apologise, it is a completely different thing and mischievous for that matter to claim ignorant. Don't gaslight people pls.

[Big Sam @SamsonNdubuisi2]

@it_Rutie This is intellectual dishonesty for you to say, "I just realised fuel is such a sensitive topic in Nigeria." Are you a foreigner? Haven't you lived in Nigeria all your life to know how fuel price and availability impact every single thing in Nigeria.
It is another thing to...
