Whenever I went to Nigeria (until last year), I stayed in hotels. Every time, my good friend and Oga would graciously book the hotel for me. He is a respected academic and has both a car and a motorbike. He uses both, but especially the car, for its convenience and safety.

During one of those visits, he came to see me at a hotel, which he recommended and booked for me. The hotel security shouted at him, rudely ordering him to take his bike behind a generator room. He was shocked because just a day earlier, the same security personnel had gleefully greeted him and prayed for him when he arrived in a car.

Again, my younger brother has a small car. I have one too, but mine is a bit more expensive than his. As my driving licence had expired and I was in the process of renewing it, I felt I shouldn’t drive. My brother laughed at me, telling me that even if KAROTA, the police, or road safety officers stopped me, they would not care about my licence. Instead, they would beg for “na goro”, a token. And they proved him right!

I had these recollections after watching the last episode of the Kannywood drama, “Kaddara”, last night. Maimuna’s 4th husband is a spendthrift. He insists on driving an expensive, flashy car to match his new status as the MD of a big company. He argues that if he drove a cheap car, he would not be respected.

Unfortunately, we overvalue material possessions, especially cars, in Nigeria. In Europe, a flashy car does not signal wealth. None of my colleagues, including globally renowned professors, drive expensive cars. Most use bicycles. They usually use a car in winter or for special occasions.

We need to undergo an attitudinal change. We should learn to value people for their worth as human beings, not for wealth, position, or anything else. Allah (SWT) Himself says, “Indeed, We have dignified the children of Adam”.

May we be guided, amin.

Remove whoever is in UBEC, repatriate @BelloGaladanchi from China, and appoint him Executive Secretary. Set up a 10-year universal basic education development fund through legislation, review upward the compulsory contribution of every state government & deduct at source from FAAC as a first line charge, hand over the FG school feeding programme to UBEC, and watch the out-of-school numbers crash exponentially, particularly in the North.

Allah ya biyaka, Dan Bello. Ameen. 🙏🏾

NEVERRRRRR underestimate how much Allah is protecting you from things you don’t even know about.

[Viktor Benson @viktorbensonyt]

How many of these things have you noticed:

1. Malls don’t have windows so you won’t realize it’s already dark outside…
You lose track of time and stay longer.

2. Bars don’t display clocks so you don’t notice how long you’ve been there…
You keep drinking, spending more.

3. Restaurants play fast, upbeat music so you eat quicker and leave sooner…
Making space for the next customer.

4. Cafés play slow, relaxing music so you stay longer and end up ordering more.

5. Supermarkets place essentials like milk at the back so you walk through the store and pick up things you didn’t plan to buy.

Everything is intentional.
Nothing is random.

[Glorious God @GloriousGod01]

I called my father and told him that I wanted to put him and my mother on a 300k monthly allowance so they could stop working or at least rest properly and only work when they felt strong enough.

He paused for a while and said, "Thank you very much, my son. The intention is very good, but I want you to start a family first. You will make that decision together with your wife."

I asked why, and he replied:

"300k is a lot of money and truly enticing, but I cannot be greedy and fail to tell you the truth. That amount is already more than 30% of your monthly income. Giving it all out now would not be wise at all. You should focus more on investing and building financial independence. You can give us something once in a while, but not a fixed monthly amount. Start saving that 300k every month from now until you get married and see how much it will grow."

He ended with, "May God bless and keep you, my son. I want you to invest more because you are not truly rich until you start raising a family and providing for them".

I love my father ❤️

Above all, love God.

"He was arrested while trying to bomb a church in Kaduna. At first he claimed to be a Muslim named “Muhammad.” Later during interrogation, he admitted his real name is Samuel Nathaniel, a Christian from Southern Kaduna, and said he had been hired for the attack. Terrorists have nothing to do with Islam.
They hide behind religious names and slogans to push their evil agenda."

[Gimba Kakanda @gimbakakanda]

Even though you are unsuccessful in masking your Islamophobia and, I must say, your lack of even the most basic capacity for logical reasoning, I cannot resist responding to this:

1.Israel is, demographically speaking, closer to being described as a Muslim country than a Christian one. There are roughly 1.7 million Muslims there, while the Christian population is only about 180,000. There are probably more Christians in two districts of Abuja than in the whole of Israel. Yet the point here is not numbers alone but treatment. Even your imaginary co-travellers in the MAGA camp, such as Tucker Carlson, have reported on the harassment faced by Christians there, concluding that Christians in Israel are living in an “apartheid state”. So, the simplistic fantasy that Israel represents some kind of Christian civilisational front line collapses the moment it encounters reality.

2.The victims of Israeli military operations have not been Muslims alone. Palestinian Christians have also suffered the same bombardments, the same displacement, and the same loss. Indeed, one of the most prominent intellectual champions of the Palestinian cause was the late Edward Said, of blessed memory, a Palestinian-American Christian whose scholarship and activism helped shape global understanding of the conflict. So, the struggle you reduce to a crude religious caricature has, in fact, been articulated by people across faiths.

3.Your claim that Nigerian Shiites are somehow incubators of terrorism because of their perceived relationship with Iran betrays not only prejudice but astonishing ignorance. If the members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria truly possessed terrorist proclivities, you and I would probably have been having this conversation from a refugee camp in Benin Republic or Niger. They have suffered repeated massacres and severe repression, including the events surrounding the Zaria Massacre, and yet there is no credible record of them responding with terrorism against the Nigerian state. In fact, groups such as Boko Haram and ISWAP regard them as heretics and typically dislike them with even greater ferocity than they dislike Christians. So, your theory that terrorists in Nigeria draw inspiration from a sect they themselves violently despise would be laughable if it were not so revealing of the intellectual poverty behind it.

4.The truly brainwashed party in this exchange is none other than you. You have convinced yourself that identifying with the perpetrators of genocide is an act of reason simply because you dislike the religion of their victims and corpses, and that is rather unfortunate.

5.Terrorism in Nigeria does not distinguish between Muslim and Christian victims. No terrorist camp in this country spares ordinary Muslims. Mosques have been bombed. Muslim villages have been razed. Muslim clerics have been assassinated. Muslim leaders and monarchs have been assassinated, all by Boko Haram. The ideology you pretend is directed only at Christians has killed tens of thousands of Muslims as well. We are victims of the same perverted creed, whether you are willing to acknowledge it or not.

https://t.co/TsMi2FZpVO, spare us the pretence that you are speaking as a voice of reason here. What you have written is not analysis, nor courage, nor moral clarity. It cannot even qualify as bigotry dressed up in the costume of logic. You are a thoroughbred Islamophobe, and luckily you do not pretend otherwise, and I pray you activate enough brain cells to connect these dots.

“Allah will not forgive me…”

My first visit to Northern Nigeria was in 2018 when I was posted to Nasarawa State for my one-year compulsory NYSC. Before then, I had never travelled beyond Enugu State. The North was completely new territory for me.

When my call-up letter came out and I saw Nasarawa State, I prepared myself mentally for the journey.

There was no direct vehicle from Aba to Lafia, so I was advised to travel to Makurdi, Benue State first, then continue to Nasarawa. I arrived at the park in Makurdi around 4:30pm and immediately found a vehicle loading for Lafia. I entered and waited.

For over 30 minutes, I was the only passenger.

Concerned about the time, I approached the driver and told him I might need to find an alternative since it was getting late and this was my first time traveling to the North. He begged me to stay and promised:

“No matter what happens, I will carry you to your destination.”

I trusted him and went back to my seat.

Around 6:00pm, another vehicle arrived from Enugu with six passengers heading to Lafia. The vehicle I had been sitting in could only carry six people. The loaders began transferring their luggage into my vehicle and asked one of them to board another car. The group refused — they insisted on traveling together.

Then something shocking happened.

The agberos brought out my bags and told me to find another vehicle.

I was angry and frustrated. It was getting dark. I didn’t know the town. I had already waited for over an hour. When I realized the loaders were Igbo like me, I pleaded with them in Igbo. They didn’t listen.

I walked up to the driver and reminded him of his promise. I told him it wasn’t fair to abandon me now that he had seen full passengers.

He was quiet for a moment.

Then he said something I will never forget:

“If I do this to you, Allah will not forgive me.”

He asked all six passengers to come down from his vehicle and told them to board another car.

The loaders were furious. They insulted him, calling him a bad businessman who didn’t have sense.

But the driver stood his ground.

He returned my bags into the vehicle, started the engine, and began driving, with only me as his passenger.

I couldn’t believe it.

He crossed River Benue with just me in the car and kept driving. At that point, I even started feeling sorry for him. If I were in his position, would I have done the same?

About three to five minutes into the journey, he received a call from the park. Another vehicle had just arrived with five passengers going to Lafia.

He looked at me and asked, “Should I turn back?”

I said yes.

He reversed, returned to the park, picked up the five passengers, and we finally headed to Lafia.

That was my first personal encounter with a Muslim man in the North.

Till today, I still think about the spirit that made that driver willing to carry just one passenger — at his own loss — simply because he gave his word.

You may be Christian.
You may be Muslim.
You may be a traditional worshipper.

But before anything else, we are human beings.

There are good people in every religion.
There are bad people in every religion.

Your prayer should simply be this:
May you never meet a bad person irrespective of religion or tribe.
