All I’ll say is if this was AFCON and they let a man play after he got a red card, the nonsense being said would be crazy

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
2087495551
Kuda

Friday Ikpe
9136237110
Okay

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

@PoliceNG @BenHundeyin @Princemoye1

Please my mutuals, if you see this on your TL, help repost or tag other relevant authorities until these criminals are apprehended.

There's a whole industry built around African poverty. NGOs, consultants, conferences, awareness campaigns, celebrity endorsements. 

Billions of dollars flow through this system every year, employing thousands of well-paid Westerners.

None of those people have an incentive for the problem to actually be solved, because if African poverty disappeared tomorrow, they'd all need new jobs. 

I'm not saying they're evil. 

I'm saying the incentive structure is broken, and incentives shape behavior more than intentions do.

Every single one of you has an Igbo family member. Every single one of you has a livelihood whose economic supply chain has Igbo people in it.

They are your neighbours, co-workers, friends, and family. In 1,000+ years of West African history, you and them have never fought.

@arojinle1 @realfemiadebayo Femi Adebayo did it though - the 'trying to woo a girl by slapping and insulting her' part 😄

First it was "Islamic terrorists" attacking road construction sites in Mali (95% Sunni Muslim country), now it's the same "Islamic terrorists" attacking Chinese mining sites in DR Congo (96% Roman Catholic country).

"Islamic terrorists" in Africa apparently only attack anything connected to African development or China/Russia. They also never attack US or Israeli embassies.🤔

Whenever you get tired of white people insulting your intelligence...

[David Hundeyin @DavidHundeyin]

Oyibo is fundamentally a liar. That is the most important thing to understand about how the world works.

He professes "freedom of speech" but stridently criticise his precious Israel and see what happens to you.

He professes "freedom of movement" but he places a 6-week visa application process with a 75% denial rate between you and him.

He professes "electoral democracy" but he has electoral colleges, constitutional monarchies and unelected upper houses of parliament with hereditary seats.

He professes "free market capitalism" but he imposes tariffs on you, subsidises everything under the sun in his local economy, and when you win anyway, he calls it "overcapacity" and tries to end the game and go home with the ball.

He professes "individual liberty" for gays and transsexuals, but calls your ancestral polygyny "barbaric".

He talks about "nuclear non-proliferation" but he remains the only entity to have ever actually used a nuclear weapon before.

He funds the UN, the ICC, the ICJ etc. but the minute they issue arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu, he sanctions the ICC Chief Prosecutor and passes the 'Hague Invasion Act' to shield his soldiers from prosecution for war crimes.

He bitches nonstop about "illegal immigrants" and "white replacement" but no other population on the planet in the entire known history of humankind has ever left its home continent enmasse and violently seized 3 other continents, genociding the natives and outbreeding them at an industrial pace.

I could go on for days. Point is, your enhanced understanding of how the world works and your proper place in it as an African begins the day you learn to completely disregard ANYTHING you have heard from any kind of oyibo authority figure or institution.

Everything you have heard from him is a lie.

Every morning, a Nigerian man in Lagos puts on a suit made in Guangzhou and leaves his house with his ASUS laptop (made in Taipei) and his Redmi smartphone (designed in Beijing).

He lives near a Lagos Blue Line station at Mile 2, so he walks to the station and boards a modern EMU train to Ikeja. The station, the rail line and the EMU were all built by China Civil Engineering Construction Company.

At Ikeja, he gets into a BRT bus made by Yutong or Zhontong (made in Zhenzhou and Liaocheng respectively) and spends his 20-minute commute on TikTok (HQ: Beijing) via his Redmi phone using his Oraimo airpods (made in Shenzhen).

He arrives at Mobolaji Johnson Railway Station (built by CCECC) and boards his modern, air-conditioned DMU train (assembled in Kajola, Ogun State under the management of CCECC) to begin his journey to Ibadan on the Lagos-Ibadan SGR (built by CCECC).

On the way to Ibadan, using his MTN 4G network built almost entirely on a Huawei (Shenzhen) and ZTE (Shenzhen) infrastructure backbone, he opens Twitter and proceeds to passionately insult me for disagreeing with the notion that China poses an external threat to his Nigerian life, and that western partnership is what would give him a better life.

Burkina Faso’s Message to Africa: Development Follows Sovereignty

Burkina Faso has launched a fully equipped mobile clinic operating under the leadership of Captain Ibrahim Traore. A project that would have sounded unrealistic just four years ago is now delivering free medical screenings and treatment directly to communities.
Since its launch in 2024, at least 15 mobile clinics have been deployed, reaching over 400 locations and serving more than two million Burkinabè. Instead of people travelling hundreds of kilometres to overstretched hospitals, the hospital now comes to them, often within minutes.

For decades after the assassination of Thomas Sankara, Burkina Faso remained trapped in a Western approved political order heavily influenced by France, with devastating consequences for public services, especially healthcare. Today’s shift shows a different path. By asserting sovereignty and breaking from external control, the country has been able to strengthen security and redirect resources into social development.

The lesson here is simple and uncomfortable for some. Development does not come from imported political models. It comes from sovereignty, priorities set at home, and the freedom to act in the interests of the people.

In my opinion, there were 2 main failures (failures I was also guilty of).

1. We did not properly define the end point of our resistance action. What did we want exactly? Because once Buhari put out that official announcement that he had disbanded SARS, he'd already won. All further action after that was immediately labelled as "youthful, energetic confusionists" or "opposition-backed insurrectionists trying to bring down the government after the government already gave them what they asked for," and those labels stuck.

In my opinion, defining our entire movement as simply "End SARS" and nothing more was in hindsight, a dumb move. We all knew the many things we were angry about, and police brutality was merely one of them. We had just come out of a disastrous foreign-imposed lockdown where 60% of people with a formal job in Nigeria had just become unemployed, and youth unemployment briefly touched 70%.

We had just seen politicians hoarding palliatives and soldiers shooting people dead for going out to buy bread during the lockdown. We had seen FIRS come on Twitter begging corporates to pay tax early because the federation account was empty, and it was clear that Nigeria was being run like a mismanaged neighbourhood provisions store. We all knew deep down the many things we were actually angry about, but we allowed our entire scope of anger to be collapsed and framed into a single, easily managed entity called "End SARS."

If we had properly defined our movement as a total rebellion against everything that the Nigerian state stood for, the violent response would have come a lot sooner, and instead of scaring us indoors, it would have had the effect that Bouazizi setting himself on fire in Tunisia did in 2011. It would have become completely unmanageable, and the Buhari government would have collapsed. At that point, we would have had a military takeover, and given the events in the Sahel over the subsequent 3 years, Nigeria might be part of the AES right now and Africa would be having a completely different conversation.

2. After it kicked off, we allowed "strong voices" to gain too much power - and I was one of those strong voices. Celebrities, social media influencers, pop culture cool cats, journalists, "activists"™️ - too many people had too much say in what everybody should or should not do. I didn't want to be the guy responsible for inciting people to risk their lives, so at a point I was here tweeting that people should "protest peacefully" even though "peaceful protest" was the very last thing anyone should have been doing.

Musicians were showing up and turning rally venues into concerts. Social media clout artists introduced "fundraising" and then all of a sudden, "fundraising" and everyone associated with it became the epicentre of the movement. Civil Society Activists™️ came in and elbowed their way to the microphone. All of a sudden some people started designing posters with "5 Demands" and doing Zoom meetings with powerful businessmen.

The sum total of allowing all this parasitic infiltration and analysis-paralysis was that certain people who were not involved with the sequence of events that kicked off on September 30, and had no ideological investment in it were able to "call off" a protest they did not convene and leave everyone who remained outside to become roadkill.

If Nigeria is to ever have a successful people's revolution, a critical mass of informed people at its core must clearly define, understand, and agree on what exactly we are fighting for and how. There must be a clear understanding that it is a PEOPLE-LED revolution, not to be quenched, misdirected or infiltrated by professional self-promoters, political performance artists and agents of state.

You keep saying,
"Life is precious."

But what you mean is,
"My lifestyle is precious."

There are people who will die
to protect their children’s land and dignity.

And there are people who will destroy entire countries
to protect their reputations, their files,
and their access to the vulnerable.

Do not confuse the two
when you talk about who is dangerous.

Iranian 🇮🇷 women are oppressed

But Iranian women are professors, scientists, Doctors, Engineers, Architects, Scholars, Teachers, Physicists, Politicians, Political leaders, Ministers of government and even Vice Presidents of Iran.

They are Business owners, Bankers and even Deputy governors of the Central Bank of Iran.

Yes, but they are still oppressed, they need freedom.

The freedom 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

You've got to ask, is it really freedom or degeneracy? Is it freedom or the push for moral bankruptcy?

When you see Iranian women on OnlyFan sites, then they are free, yeah?

It is not freedom you seek for Iran, it is to turn them into physical and spiritual degenerates.

It is to corrupt their society.
It is to influence them with your degeneracy.

[Iyo Obietonbara @sankofa360]

The people who did this, who wiped out an entire city and Livestreamed their genocide against the Palestinians are telling you that a nation like Iran🇮🇷 that has not attacked any country in the last 300 years, (except in self defense) is a threat to global peace, regional security and forms the axis of evil, and you believe them?

Again, you are not a victim of media propaganda. You are an accomplice.

[Iyo Obietonbara @sankofa360]

People with no integrity or dignity wouldn't understand an 86 year old man like Ali Khamenei.

He is not like your degenerate, baby raping, children eating demons you call leaders.

Why should he hide in underground bunkers? Why should he hide from missiles?

You think Khamenei will ask the people of Iran to defend their country while he runs into underground bunkers?

He is not like the degenerate deviants you call leaders.

If he is dead, its because he wanted to pay the ultimate price for his country.

At 86, what's left?

And if he is truly dead, it simply means another eternal hero of the resistance is born

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

He is what your leaders cannot be even in a thousand years.
