This is just my little contribution to getting more Nigerians registered to vote.
Please repost this, share it on WhatsApp, and spread it offline too. The more eligible Nigerians we get registered, the stronger our democracy becomes.
Let's do our part. ๐ณ๐ฌ
I want a Peter Obi presidency because I need Nigeria to reclaim its place on the world excellence map, and it starts with educationโa Nigeria where the most investment is in childrenโs education and health. He's done it before. He still does it. He can do it again.
Ironically, this heated "Olodo Uprising" conversation is actually a good sign for Nigeria.
Nigeria is finally having its first endogenous, organically-defined culture war over an issue that is intrinsically important to Nigerian society.
Every other culture war that post-colonial Nigeria has fought until now has been imported Yankee slop, or imported religious slop, or both (LGBTQ, 3rd wave Feminism, "sexual liberation", tithing, NYSC hijab, etc).
A society fighting internal culture wars over its own self-defined issues is a society that is finally obtaining an identity of its own. Long may the war continue, and may the olodos suffer crushing defeat that dooms their uprising to the chapters of a Jude Bela historical documentary released in 2045.
The reason your mother fried Akara to send you to school is so that you can be a better citizen of the society and have a fighting chance against poverty. She didn't do it for you to come online and defend frying of Akara as economic empowerment. Don't waste her efforts.
It should not go without saying that the fact that you provide a platform for Nigerian writers should not mean you can harm us into silence. Itโs unfair. And stupid. And you've gone to the ends of the earth to report the young men for such flimsy suspicion and ยฃ50.
This cycle of exploitation, community owners wield their axe against our backs when it suits their wicked agendas. Please stop!
These Police Officers just parked me at Bolade, Oshodi, pointed guns at me, and forced me to transfer N100,000 them. When my bank app showed "exceeded transfer limit", they dragged me to a nearby POS to do it with my card.
They initially demanded 150k each.
They were 4 in number.
These are the names I could copy:
Francis Adekunle

Friday Ikpe

Okay
This is the phone number of the notorious Officer Friday Ikpe 09136237110. I got it from his opay

Please my mutuals, if you see this on your TL, help repost or tag other relevant authorities until these criminals are apprehended.
Rev, you donโt know what Peter Obi wants from political parties โ I do.
Grab a coffee and I will explain โ itโs a long one.
Itโs clear to me, and anyone who is paying attention, that Peter Obi is laser-focused on being president. Full stop.
He wants to lay a foundation upon which this country will begin the recovery of its soul.
PO sees everything else as a distraction or performative.
By the way, he doesnโt need to prove himself anymore. He won the last election and will win the next one โ but I digress.
A close watcher of the man will see that he is channelling precious energy and resources towards making sure that he wins again and that his mandate is not stolen a second time.
Energy is finite. Wise people pick their battles.
Fighting random proxies like Lamidi Apapa to prove a point is useless in the extreme. Committing the enormous time and energy required to prove that he can hold a political party with willpower alone when courts are in the pockets of APC is like urinating on a rock just to prove that wet rocks glint in the sun.
Political parties as is currently constituted is a cage that he must work within. So to make sure his name is on the ballot, the man has to tear up the rule book you, and the undiscerning are judging him by.
Pause for a moment and acknowledge that the data points youโre using to judge Peter Obi today is after the fact.
Letโs do a thought experiment.
Imagine itโs the night of 23th May, 2022, days before the PDP primaries:
- Your name is Peter Gregory Onwubuasi Obi.
- Your brand is that you will never pay for votes.
- You already know that tens of thousands of dollars are greasing the palms of delegates.
Answer honestly.
What would you do?
Would you in your craziest thoughts imagine that moving to Labour Party, a party that doesnโt appear even as a footnote, is a remote option?
Would you fancy your chances with 9 months to prepare for an election?
Would you dare slog it out alone without anyone of note in your corner?
What would be your assessment of a personโs concern for your wellbeing, were they to suggest such madness?
Your answer (and mine) is very simple, unless youโre lying to yourself.
โOga just go home, you don try. As you no dey give shishi, Nigerian politics is not for you. Even if you get shishi to give, you canโt outspend Atiku and Wike.โ
But what did Peter Obi do?
He moved to Labour Party and reignited hope in young hearts up and down the country.
He read the mood of the people and mapped out a path and a campaign plan that he executed flawlessly.
A man who has that level of insane belief in his abilities is who you flippantly speak about instead of humbly taking notes?
People forget that Peter Obiโs appeal is not a random act of nature. It derives from an intentional life โ painstakingly built over 6 decades to withstand the type of pressure that will forge diamonds.
So when you say, offhandedly, that he has a large following, do well to remember that he earned it! His followership didnโt fall from the sky. He earned that shit!
Now tell me this, what would you do if the umpire and your opponents are in the same WhatsApp group?
It is most unwise to loose a second of focus playing by the rules that they invent to keep you running around in circles. Reminds me of a clip I saw once of a cat chasing laser shone on a wall.
If they set up the rules so that instead of fighting them, you are chasing a sliver of laser, you refuse, you flip the rules or you donโt play at all.
Is it not instructive that the arguments you have about his relationship with political parties are the same as Wike and the APC (the trap setters) use against him? That should give you pause.
Finally Rev, instead of marvelling at a man dodging bullets like Neo in the Matrix, you sound unhappy that he isnโt standing still and taking the bullets in the stomach like a real man.
Dug into the data of child welfare in Nigeria understand Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the things I found Ade truly astounding. I'm afraid!
Health Minister says 850k children die every year under Tinubu yet health budget is less than 7%.
Happy Childrenโs Day

Governor Amuneke during his own party primary election ๐ญ๐
Interviewer; if eventually you win second term, what are you going to do differently?
Governor Amuneke; well, it's not what I'm going to do differently, why is Peter Obi gallivanting up and down?
I don't have a portfolio.
Honestly? I find the whole thing a bit performative. And the last time I maintained one, it just wasn't worth the effort. If you're just coming into my world and don't know me yet, do a Google search and get familiar. I'll wait.
Here's what I do have:
8 years across graphic, brand, and product design. Webflow. Framer. Shopify. Adobe Suite end-to-end. Figma like it's a second language. PowerBI (yes, I know DAX). Tableau. Python for data viz. Editorial design in CorelDRAW and InDesign. Presentation design that doesn't look like a template.
And brand systems. This one deserves its own paragraph.
I specifically enjoy working with brands that don't want to rebrand. You love your logo, you're attached to your colours, your fonts feel right. You just have 11 versions of your slide deck, nobody can agree on which green is the green, and every new designer you bring in starts from scratch. That's not a brand problem. That's a systems problem. I fix that.
I come in, audit what exists, find what's actually working, and build a system around it. Tokens, components, usage rules, the whole thing. So your team stops guessing and starts shipping consistently.
I've led teams. I've designed websites that are live and visited by real humans โ https://t.co/GjjX1RsBKw, https://t.co/Y62Awkha9b, among others.
I learn fast. I also write. And I teach.
What I don't have: a hero section that says "I craft meaningful experiences."
What I do have: a Notion doc with a little bit of receipts, and 8 years of taste you can feel the moment we get on a call.
I'm available RIGHT NOW. This week. Seriously.
Brand systems. Identity. Website design and dev. Product design. Data viz. Decks. Whatever you're building that needs to look like someone actually cared.
DM me or call the number in my bio.
(Yes, I'm making a phone gesture in this photo. No, I'm not joking about being available.)
Been building a personal finance tracker web app since January because Iโve struggled with money myself and wanted something simple to track my spending.
Built most of it through vibe coding.

Would love feedback or ideas in my DMs.
As Nigeria counts down to 2027, my team and I have spent the last five months building something big.
Itโs called Power and Plunder โ a series that takes you through the entire history of Nigeriaโs leadership.
From Tafawa Balewa in 1960 to the current administration, weโre doing deep dives on every single leader who has occupied that office. How they governed. What they built. What they destroyed. And how, for better or worse, each one shaped the course of this country.
First episode drops Wednesday, May 6th. Watch this space.
Excited to share that my portfolio has been featured on Wall of Portfolios ๐
Grateful for the recognition and the journey so far. More work, more growth, more impact ๐ก
