A nation can’t truly progress when citizens praise failure and normalize bad leadership.
Real change begins the moment we stop clapping for empty promises and start demanding results, accountability, transparency, and good governance.
Leaders are meant to serve the people , not be worshipped while the people suffer.
If we keep celebrating poor performance because of tribe, party, or emotions, we will keep recycling the same problems.
Silence protects bad governance. Accountability builds a better nation.
We can’t continue like this.
On this World Nurses Day, I would like to take a moment to appreciate all the nurses and midwives in our dear nation, who occupy a very special place and play very critical roles in our health sector. As one who has been on the vanguard of investing in our critical sectors of human and national development, I have always maintained that you, our dear nurses, are the heart of our health sector.
Over the years, I have traversed different corners of our nation supporting different schools and colleges of nursing and midwifery because I understand the inevitable role you play in our healthcare delivery. As you mark this special day, I wish to, firstly, thank you for all your efforts and sacrifices. Your compassion, sacrifice, and resilience keep our nation alive. And secondly, I wish to encourage you not to relent in your service to humanity. Nigerian nurses work under some of the toughest conditions with dignity and courage. From physical and mental stress to high patient-to-nurse ratios, to lack of equipment and poor working environments, your resilience keeps our health sector going.
And beyond the shores of the nation, our nurses have continued to make exploits on the global stage. From leading the next generation research in nursing practice to championing excellence in clinical practice—many Nigerian nurses have written their names on the sands of time and lifted our national banner high. I celebrate you all.
My firm commitment to you all remains this — we will build a New Nigeria where your hard work and sacrifices will never go unnoticed. We will invest in your education and training to ensure that you remain competitive on the global stage. Happy World Nurses Day to you all.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

There is an urgent medical information I want to pass across. This will save your life, pls come close.
If you ever see rotten tomatoes that looks like these pictures I posted, or if you ever see onions with black spots on them or you see corn with mould on it,
PLEASE RUN FOR YOUR LIFE.
Why do I say this?
All these food items are contaminated with a poisonous fungus called AFLATOXINS.
Aflatoxins are notorious for increasing the risk of liver cancer. When you eat food that has this type of tomatoes, or you eat food cooked with this kind of onions or you eat this type of corn you are at risk of developing liver cancer.
Only eat fresh tomatoes, fresh onions and fresh corn. Avoid rotten tomatoes, blackened onions or corn with mould (even if they are cheaper to buy).
This is not a threat or a joke.
This is a real life serious medical issue.
Kindly share this information.
What does this guy really want? What's his grouse with Peter Obi? Does he think what he's doing is politics? He should not set himself up for unnecessary media crossfire. The bitterness in his voice is seething. He can be eating from the dining table of Atiku Abubakar and still take his beak out of where Peter Obi is. Talking is an art, but his own is becoming a science of nothingness. He speaks like Peter Obi is owing him a bad debt. Eat in peace, Kenneth! Don't make Peter Obi your object of fury exertion. You're fast becoming decrepit. You appear forlorn when these days you talkㅡ seeming to whistle in the wind. Peter Obi has left your ADC and suddenly the court cases surrounding the party have become ineffective. This means that the Presidency only saw Peter Obi in the ADC coalition of strange bedfellows. Now that Peter Obi has left your ADC, the party appears to be an empty shell, and I suspect this is giving you revulsive spleen. Joe Igbokwe is becoming a hero over you.
Barr Kenneth Okonkwo, Peter Obi shouldn't be your distemper. Don't course yourself through to image erosion. Work for Atiku in peace and ensure that you eke out a living from so doing. There's hunger. There's so much to be done on Atiku's image and maliciously tackling Peter Obi is not one of it. Don't be talking as though only you can talk eloquently. Children will start replying you in manners you won't like if you refuse to rein in yourself. You're dressing yourself for dragging and I think at the appropriate time, you'll be drowned in this brook you're digging. Take this thing gradually. The difference between ADC as currently constituted and APC is not much. You should know better. ADC & APC are two sides of a coin. Don't continue living in bondage, Andy! You've come of age. You're not enjoying spotlight, should you think you do; you're just enjoying notoriety, and it's not good for your image.

International Nurses Day:
Today, as the world celebrates International Nurses Day, we honor and appreciate all nurses across the globe, especially our hardworking Nigerian nurses, whose sacrifices, compassion, resilience, and dedication continue to save lives and bring hope to humanity.
You are the heartbeat of our healthcare system, standing strong in moments of pain, emergencies, and uncertainty. Your sleepless nights, gentle words, caring hands, and unwavering commitment to humanity can never go unnoticed. Society remains grateful for your courage and selfless service.
The Holy Bible reminds us in Galatians 6:9: “Let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”
And in Matthew 5:16: “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
Indeed, your good works shine brightly every day in hospitals, clinics, communities, and homes.
Florence Nightingale once said: “I attribute my success to this: I never gave or took any excuse.”
Also, Mother Teresa beautifully stated: “Not all of us can do great things, but we can do small things with great love.”
These quotes perfectly reflect the spirit of nursing — service with love, compassion, and humanity.
To every Nigerian nurse, thank you for your patience, strength, professionalism, and unwavering dedication despite the challenges.
May God continue to strengthen your hands, reward your sacrifices, bless your families, grant you good health, divine protection, and greater achievements in your noble profession.
Happy International Nurses Day to all our heroes in white. The world is better because of you.
Honestly, I'd have mentioned Tinubu and corrupt leaders but, looking inward, they're not the actual cause of our problem.
Nigeria is where it is mostly because of religion and tribalism.
So, in this regards, I'll go ahead to delete RELIGION & TRIBALISM.
