⚠️ In 2022, a UK mum at 31 weeks pregnant suddenly became allergic to her own baby.
It started with unbearable itching on her belly, then hours later her entire body exploded in red spots and huge painful blisters.
Her skin literally peeled off in agony.
Fiona was in so much pain she couldn’t even hold her newborn son, Barney.
Diagnosis: Pemphigoid Gestationis - an ultra-rare autoimmune disease (1 in 50,000 pregnancies) where her immune system mistook the baby’s placental proteins as invaders and attacked her own skin.
Thankfully, after heavy steroids she recovered and is now living happily with young Barney.
But with a 50% chance of it returning in future pregnancies Fiona has taken the difficult decision: no more kids.

Glad we we are pushing bit-by-bit.

The abduction of the Chibok girls in 2014 triggered a global movement. One school abduction was enough to unite Nigerians, attract international attention, and place enormous pressure on the government through the #BringBackOurGirls campaign.
Yet, what has happened since then should trouble every Nigerian.
Under President Buhari's eight years in office, Nigeria witnessed about ten school abductions. Under President Tinubu's administration, in just three years, we have already recorded over ten school abductions.
Despite these repeated tragedies, there has been neither sustained national outrage nor significant international attention comparable to what followed Chibok.
This raises an important question: have we become so accustomed to insecurity that what once shocked our national conscience is now treated as normal?
At a time when millions of Nigerians are grappling with insecurity, poverty, and hardship, it is deeply troubling that those in power appear more focused on political calculations and preparations for the next election than on addressing the urgent challenges confronting our people.
It is, therefore, no surprise that some observers have labelled us a "Now Disgraced Nation". While we do not agree with any attempt to define our great country by its present difficulties, we must acknowledge that persistent insecurity, economic hardship, and leadership failure have damaged our reputation and standing among nations.
The answer is not denial, propaganda, or political distraction. The answer is leadership that is competent, compassionate, accountable, and genuinely committed to the welfare and security of the Nigerian people.
The Nigerian youth must not become indifferent. We must all refuse to normalise failure.
Young Nigerians - Take back your country!
A New Nigeria is Possible. -PO
Imagine for a second having a President who executes perfectly such as this; frankly speaking, watching this gave me goosebumps:
-Great communication skills
-Clarity of thoughts
-Precise understanding of the issues
- Facts, figures, the whole enchilada!
What more can you ask for in a global leader? It’s about time!
-A new Nigeria is POssible

Excellent performance is wayyyy cheaper than rigging
Just a fraction of the monies spent coercing followers would have delivered good governance and the good will needed for a sure return to office

WHY ARE THE CHILDREN STILL IN CAPTIVITY?
Dear Young Nigerians,
One lesson from the 2023 elections, particularly in Lagos, should never be forgotten.
In the period following the presidential election and leading up to the governorship election, we witnessed a troubling shift in public discourse. Conversations that should have focused on competence, governance, development, and the future of our nation were gradually diverted towards tribal sentiments, ethnic divisions, and unnecessary suspicion among citizens.
Many sincere and well-meaning Nigerians participated in these conversations without realising that they were being drawn into narratives carefully designed by others.
Throughout history, whenever politicians find it difficult to compete on ideas, performance, character, or vision, some resort to exploiting the fault lines of ethnicity, religion, and identity. Their calculation is simple: a divided people are easier to manipulate than a united people.
Today, I see similar efforts emerging again, sometimes in more subtle and sophisticated ways. Narratives are planted, amplified, and circulated, often by individuals who genuinely believe they are defending a worthy cause, without recognizing the broader agenda behind such campaigns.
Let me state clearly that Pastor Enoch Adeboye remains one of the foremost fathers of faith in our nation. For decades, he has consistently preached the virtues of peace, prayer, love, reconciliation, and national unity. Even when faced with provocation, his response has always reflected humility, restraint, wisdom, and grace.
At 84 years of age, it would be unfair for young and able-bodied Nigerians to transfer to him responsibilities that properly belong to them. The task of building a better Nigeria rests primarily on the shoulders of the younger generation. It is their duty to lead the conversations, champion the reforms, and drive the positive change our nation urgently requires.
We must be careful not to become instruments in the hands of those who secretly nurture division while publicly preaching unity. In most cases, their target is not the individual being attacked; instead, it is the person who is attacking. Their real objective is to weaken the bonds that hold us together as one people and one nation.
I therefore urge all young Nigerians: do not allow anyone to recruit you into hatred. Do not allow anyone to weaponise your ethnicity, your faith, or your admiration for respected leaders.
Question every narrative. Verify every claim. Follow the facts. Resist manipulation.
The Nigeria of our dreams can only be built by citizens who refuse to be divided, who choose unity over hatred, and who place our collective future above narrow interests.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
Please release these children for the sake of our shared humanity
I am deeply shocked and heartbroken by the condition in which these abducted school children are, as seen from their flagellated bodies. It is a painful reminder of the depth of insecurity in our land.
I have always made it clear that the society we abuse today will take its revenge on our children tomorrow. When I first began making that statement, some of these children were not even born. This is a classic example of how the abuse of governance and society today can produce devastating consequences long after the abusers are gone.
It is on the same line that I argue that the loans our leaders take today will hurt our children in the future, as many of them will mature for repayment and consequences long after we are gone.
To those holding these children, I make a direct appeal to your conscience. Remember that these are innocent children - sons and daughters of people who have placed their hopes, dreams, and entire future in them. In every one of them, you will find reflections of your own children, your own family, and your own humanity.
No grievance, no hardship, no justification can ever outweigh the sanctity of a child’s life and innocence. Whatever path has led to this moment, there is still room for remorse, for humanity, and for a change of heart.
I therefore appeal to your sense of mercy: release these children immediately. Let them go. Return them safely to society to reunite with their families. -PO
They are people’s children, people’s parents, people’s spouses. They’ve spent 20 days in captivity. We cannot normalize silence! This too heartbreaking!💔
Yesterday, I attended the affirmation of NDC candidates for the 2027 General Elections in Kano State.
The event featured the affirmation of His Excellency Peter Obi as the party’s presidential candidate. I also received the Kano State Governorship Candidate nomination form
I'm getting more concerning reports from Eti-Osa that INEC is conniving that devilish woman in an attempt to rig the NDC primary.
According to reports, this young man is leading comfortably, so they are trying to manipulate and rig the results.
We need voices and pressure, please!
Keep demanding the release of these children. Don’t be tired
Put their faces everywhere. Make it impossible for those in power to keep ignoring the nightmare these children are living through.
46 children being flogged every single day.
No one deserves to grow up like this.
