Congratulations to all the African countries representing our continent at the World Cup. Your performances have made Africa proud.
Special congratulations to Cape Verde, a nation with a landmass of 4,033 sq km, which is less than 0.5% of Nigeria’s landmass of 923,768 sq km, and a population of about 550,000, which is less than 0.25% of Nigeria’s population of 230,000,000. For context, Cape Verde has about 200,000 fewer people than Ogbomoso. Yet, they reached the knockout stage of the World Cup.
Cape Verde has once again demonstrated that greatness is not determined by size or population, but by planning and disciplined execution. When systems work, even the smallest nations can compete with the best in the world.
Nigeria’s absence from the World Cup is not a consequence of a lack of talent. It is the result of years of poor administration, weak institutions, and leadership that has consistently failed to build sustainable systems.
This is the lesson for us as a nation: if we can get leadership right, strengthen our institutions, plan and execute properly, and reward talent over connections, Nigeria can become a global success story, not only in football but also in other areas.
A new Nigeria is POssible … and Nigeria will be OK. -PO
@charlesaniagolu If every journalist toe this line, most liars from the ruling government will avoid the media houses or do the right thing. Thanks for insisting on the right answer to a question.
I don’t interview guests to embarrass them. I interview them to test arguments. If an explanation can’t withstand scrutiny, the public deserves to know.
Comparing a fake agency scandal - along with a governance breakdown involving official institutions - to 9/11 isn’t an answer, it’s a distraction.
9/11 was a catastrophic terrorist attack. What Nigerians are asking about is institutional accountability. Those are not the same conversation. When we blur them, we don't illuminate the truth - we detract from it. There's a difference between explaining a failure, and excusing one.
Thank you to everyone who reached out. It’s clear many of us still believe in one simple thing: asking hard questions, and refusing to let bad analogies replace accountability.
Journalism isn't about winning arguments. It's about refusing to let bad arguments replace accountability. That’s the job!
While Peter Obi stopped in Nise to encourage citizens registering for their PVCs, something unforgettable happened.
A blind man in the crowd began calling out, “Where is Peter Obi?” Peter Obi walked over, held his hand, and said, “I am Peter Obi.”
The man replied, “I heard you were here, so I came. I need help. The place where people with disabilities were cared for during your time as governor has been taken from us. We have been left on our own.”
Peter Obi listened attentively, supported him with a token for his immediate welfare, and assured him the matter would receive attention.
This is why many people speak about the impact of Peter Obi’s leadership with conviction. For them, it isn’t propaganda or political rhetoric, it’s lived experience and visible even to the blind.
Good leadership is remembered long after a tenure ends. It is felt in the lives it touches, especially by the most vulnerable.
It is safe to say that under a Peter Obi presidency, people with disabilities would not be forgotten, but included, protected, and treated with dignity.

IMF says that government spent 8.8 trillion extra budgetary spending that’s 2 percent of GDP and Nigerians don’t even understand their commonwealth and then people will talk about tokenism for 50k grant for Akara seller and you praise them
Why can’t this money be channeled to the poor!
I will hardly trust any data that comes out of government if 8.8 trillion can be hidden
A plane landed on an expressway and people came down but the government can’t produce manifest of the plane ?
Celebrating a Life of Faith and Service in the Lord's vineyard
Yesterday, I travelled to Ibadan with Professor Pat Utomi to join family, friends, the clergy, and the faithful in celebrating the remarkable life of His Grace, Archbishop Alaba Job, on the occasion of his 88th birthday, 60 years of priestly ordination, and 55years of episcopal ordination.
The celebration reflects a lifetime devoted to God, selfless service, peace, justice, and the upliftment of humanity. His inspiring example reminds us that true leadership is measured by sacrifice, integrity, compassion, and a commitment to serving others. At a time when our nation yearns for principled and selfless leadership, His Grace’s life remains a beacon of hope and an enduring testament to what it truly means to serve God and humanity.
I congratulate His Grace, and pray that God Almighty continues to bless him with good health, wisdom and strength as he remains a source of inspiration to the church and our nation.
After the celebration, we passed through one of the secondary schools Professor Utomi attended, Loyola College, Ibadan, and within there we saw an INEC voter registration exercise going on, and we stopped. We used that occasion to thank those registering, and appeal to those who haven't to do so before the closing date.
We encouraged them to remain committed to the democratic process, and reminded them that voter registration is the first step towards building the New Nigeria we all desire. We told them that every registered voter represents hope for a nation where leadership is driven by competence, character, compassion, and a commitment to the common good.

Chief Omirhobo to Kenneth Okonkwo: When a man who you have described as. Corrupt and who is widely perceived sold your national assets to himself , Cronies , friends and associates for peanut appoints you as his spokesman in the next election and you go to town dancing and even hold thanksgiving service it shows how low, self-serving, and lacking in principle you are . It shows that you are just a political harlot. It shows that you are a stomach infrastructure politician .
The 8th Senate is remembered for frequently asserting its independence, rejecting key executive requests, scrutinizing appointments and loans, etc.
As the 10th National Assembly nears the end of its tenure,what defining acts of legislative independence will it be remembered for?
To understand how scandalously corrupt this ruling of 26 June by Isa Dashen of @FederalHigh is, you have to read his original judgment of 10 Dec 2025.
On pages 20-21 of that judgment, the judge determined that the Peace Movement Party (PMP) did not arise in the case & was both "belated" & an "impermissible afterthought".
On the issue of logo, he held explicitly that the Constitution "does not empower INEC to reject a logo merely because it resembles that of an existing party."
5 months later, the same judge empowered himself to reject a party merely because a person not party to the case alleged that its logo resembled that of a non-existing party.

Chance Visits to INEC Registration Centres
On my return to Anambra State yesterday, and on my way to attend some scheduled engagements, I made impromptu visits to the INEC voter registration centres at the Civic Centre, Nibo, and Nrijiofor Primary School, Nri.
I was pleased to see Nigerians registering to vote. I took the opportunity to commend those who had turned out and to encourage every eligible citizen to do the same. I reminded them that the journey to good governance does not begin on Election Day; it begins with voter registration. Registering to vote is not just a civic responsibility — it is an investment in the Nigeria we all desire.
I urged everyone who is eligible but has not yet registered to do so without delay. I also appealed to those who have already registered to encourage their family members, friends, neighbours, and colleagues to take advantage of the ongoing exercise before the deadline.
Every registered voter strengthens our democracy and brings us one step closer to building the secure, united, productive, and prosperous Nigeria we all seek.

If 40 pets were missing in another country the President will not sleep, in Nigeria 40 kids are missing, the presidency sees nothing wrong. #politics#nigeria
