Aww, the little boy started kicking empty containers, but after his dad got him a ball, see his wonderful kicks, wait for it⚽♥️🥹

Kai. Our understandings of what constitutes male dressing is so westernized.

This is why Nigerians like poverty so they can record people reacting like this. I can’t explain why .

You reduce crime by eliminating poverty. You reduce crime with universal healthcare, public housing, livable wages, and free college. You reduce violence by creating happy, healthy communities that aren’t constantly fighting over basic needs and material resources.

Since Peter Obi left PDP to run under Labour Party in 2023, he has achieved one important thing; the average politically-aware Nigerian youth is no more ignorant of the transactional nature of our political class, from the Executive, to the Judiciary to the Legislature. Lessons..

This is really legendary. Kids who were not born when Michael Jackson lived will learn about him. His legacy will continue to be alive.

[Duke of Africa @Allezamani]

This should be promoted. Nigerians should learn to look out for each other.

Of course, the United States –the self-acclaimed defender of democracy –will not say anything because he has agreed to a mineral deal with them. That is what they are after, not democracy.

The same fate awaits Nigerians. If you defeat Tinubu in 2027 and he refuses to leave office, you will find the same USA many Nigerians worship watch and do nothing.

Kwame Ture Speaks on African Unity

In this excerpt from a 1992 lecture on Pan-Africanism and African unity at Florida International University, Miami, USA, political activist and revolutionary Kwame Ture (1941 – 1998) speaks about what it means for Africans to be truly united, and how history offers important lessons about the way forward for the continent.

Kwame Ture (born Stokely Carmichael) was a Trinidadian-born, U.S-raised activist, who was a key figure in the Civil Rights and Black Power Movements in the United States, and a lifelong champion of Pan-Africanism. He was most notable in his later years as the chief organizer for the All-African People’s Revolutionary Party (A-APRP), founded in the late 1960s by former Ghanaian President and Pan-Africanist icon Kwame Nkrumah (1909 - 1972) – in whose honor Ture took on his new first name.

Ture’s thoughts are apt at a time when Africa faces – for the first time in generations – the threat of direct colonial occupation by Western powers, who are desperate to shore up their dwindling influence on a world that no longer believes in the fiction of Western superiority.

Some African nations, like Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso, see the coming storm for what it is, and are moving accordingly. It is left to the rest of the continent to follow suit.

@oluwamedina @ManLikeAkoh but no functioning unions

[Ayo @Alhajirostova]

I said this before: Nigeria simply doesn’t have the right regulations to keep companies in check.

If a company like Dangote operated in the US, there’s no way on earth workers would be paid the equivalent of $112 for an entire month’s work. It just wouldn’t fly.

They get away with it here because they know the systems meant to protect workers are non-existent.

@dre_foryoursoul need lyrics tho. need to pray along

[☆stiv☆ @__stiv]

@dre_foryoursoul forever sounds like a prayer ♡ thank you.

[Ayo @Alhajirostova]

i know you don’t want to hear this, but this coming election is probably our only hope. if tinubu gets a second term, we could turn into something like DR Congo or even worse. there’s a high chance of the country becoming a one-party state since he seems to have everyone in his pocket.
this is about more than the next four years; it’s the start of the next phase of your life. please take it seriously. get your PVC and vote.

[𐌁𐌉Ᏽ 𐌕𐌉𐌌𐌉 @OrevaZSN]

Full grown adults who can’t vacation, take a gap year, have hobbies, play an instrument, speak multiple languages, swim, cycle, skate, or backpack. Just a lifetime of hustling and trying to escape survival mode. These are subtle poverty metrics no one really talks about.

At the end of the day we cannot seriously depend on one man to save us.

The sooner we realize we have to collectively take back this country ourselves the better
