INEC needs to be careful.

Nigerians are reporting that their data are being systematically deleted from the system

There needs to be some sort of clarification from INEC

Peter Obi: Europe has a population of 450 million.
FACT: Europe has a 745 million people

Peter Obi: Europe is 4.something million square kilometers.
FACT: Europe has a land size of 10.1 million square kilometers.

You people should not allow this dullard and Adojutini anywhere near power. He has nothing upstairs!

[NEFERTITI @firstladyship]

Emeka Ike hails from one of Peter Gregory Obi’s strongholds. He was singled out for slaughter; to make an example of. How did Lere Olayinka gain access to Emeka’s classified information?

How was he able to access the database?

Opposition must demand an immediate forensic examination of INEC’s database.
Lere Olayinka has access to INEC’s backend.

It only means that the Commission has been totally compromised. The rot is deeper than we thought. You will get to your polling unit—only to discover that the BVAS machine cannot read your card. You will discover that INEC & agents of the ruling party (have searched out your name, & deleted your INFO from the system).

Agent provocateurs will transfer your PVC registration to a different polling unit or state. A place far away from where you are supposed to vote. Peter Obi should not take this lightly!

From what we witnessed at FCT local election, INEC transferred those who voted for Obi to distant locations, far away from where they were supposed to vote. People only got to find out on the day of that local council election.

On top of that, Wike declared a curfew. He prevented people from moving around. You will be surprised that voters in certain regions & places where Obi got high number of votes are being mass deleted from the database as I speak. That way, their PVCs cannot be read.

Peter Obi’s stronghold is being tampered with. This is no longer a scaremongering, it’s a FACT! This is disenfranchisement on a grand scale.

The above are some of the many ways that Nigerians are going to be disenfranchised—worse, restricted! The inmates have taken over the asylum. Mad men are running things now.

INEC will put the lives of NYSC officials in danger. A widespread disenfranchisement like that could lead to break down of law & order.

Time to fix this is now! Tomorrow might be late! If an APC urchin can have Admin access to INEC’s backbend, then nothing is impossible!

Opposition must leave nothing to chance. We must deal with this issue NOW! Current INEC must be disbanded! Joash Amupitan must go!

ACCEPTANCE SPEECH BY MR. PETER OBI FOLLOWING HIS NOMINATION AS THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE OF THE NIGERIAN DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS(NDC) – MAY 30, 2026

Protocols,

Esteemed citizens of Nigeria,

It is with deep humility that I accept the role of presidential candidate for our party.
I express my profound gratitude to the leaders of our party. His Excellency Seriake Dickson, the National Chairman, National Secretary and the National Working Committee, NWC members and members of our relentless supporters, and the Nigerian populace who have steadfastly kept the spirit of hope alive. I commend those who have made the journey from every region of our nation to convene here in Abuja.

I wish to assert unequivocally: a New Nigeria is Possible. This conviction has united us; it must serve as our compass on the challenging road ahead and sustain us through all trials we may face. This pivotal moment transcends the individual ambitions of Peter Obi; it concerns the essence of our nation and the future of our children. It is about rekindling hope for millions who have faced adversity yet remain committed to Nigeria.

Today, our nation finds itself at a crucial juncture, enveloped in uncertainty. Families are anxious about their safety; parents are concerned for their children's futures; and talented youth increasingly question their prospects in their homeland.

Businesses are struggling, communities are suffering, and an alarming number of citizens have lost faith in the very concept of governance. Yet, I stand before you filled with optimism and strong faith in the resilience of our people, for I firmly believe that a New Nigeria is possible.

UNITY
To realise this New Nigeria, we must first mend the foundational elements essential for the success of any nation.

Nigeria cannot advance while fragmented by ethnic, religious, regional, or narrow political divides. We may communicate in different languages and practise diverse faiths, but we share a singular destiny under one flag. Our diversity should not be a source of division; rather, it is among our greatest strengths.

We should build bridges where others erect barriers, replace mistrust with confidence, division with understanding, and resentment with a collective purpose. A united Nigeria is indispensable. As Will Durant wisely pointed out, "A great civilisation is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within." We must never self-destruct. We must heal, unify, and progress together.

INSECURITY
In terms of security, the situation in Nigeria has considerably worsened. The global terrorism impact assessments ranked Nigeria as the 8th most affected nation in 2022, 6th in 2024, and 4th in 2026.
Yet, for many years, Nigeria garnered global recognition as a reliable contributor to peacekeeping, regional stabilisation, and conflict resolution. Our troops have not only displayed bravery but have also shown professionalism, discipline, resilience, and empathy in the most challenging operational contexts. Our officers and personnel have successfully commanded multiple international forthe ces, safeguarded vulnerable civilian populations, monitored ceasefires, reinstated constitutional order, and contributed to rebuilding efforts.

Nigeria became one of the leading contributors of troops from Africa to UN peacekeeping missions and earned widespread admiration for operational effectiveness and leadership in various countries, including Rwanda, Sudan, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Mali, Western Sahara, Congo, Lebanon, Cambodia, Haiti, and Kuwait. At one pointin a Nigeria, Lt. General Isaac Obiakor (rtd) even led global peacekeeping initiatives.

We must address insecurity with resolve and urgency, for no nation can thrive while its citizens live in trepidation. The primary responsibility of the government is to ensure the safeguarding of lives and property.

[AMB. SERAH IBRAHIM @TheSerahIbrahim]

Two things show out here.

First, you actually know how to spell Obidient correctly.

Second, and more importantly, you have just exposed how easy APC access INEC’s database
A supposed independent agency for elections is being accessed at will to show and prove a very minor engagement as Emeka Ike’s true roots, so imagine what they will do to grab the elections.

APC has access to the admin website of INEC which is supposed to be only accessible by the Independent body alone.

So is INEC independent enough to hold this elections in 2027?

[DonAza @DonAzag]

THE BACKDOOR IS OPEN: How APC is Entering INEC's Secret Database

The lie that INEC is independent has finally been exposed. It did not happen because a whistleblower spoke out or because of a big investigation. It happened because APC operatives are now so proud of their power that they do not even care about hiding their tracks.

To mock actor Emeka Ike because he transferred his voter registration from Imo State to Abuja, an APC apologist, Lere went online to share screenshots. But he made a big mistake. He did not just share a rumor; he shared clear screenshots taken from inside the secret, password-protected backend database of INEC.

For an ordinary person, the pictures look like normal registration slips. But if you look closely at the top of the browser tab, the web address shows https://t.co/Ne2YNhFv0f.

Let this sink in very well. This cvradmin is not a public website. It is not the place where you and I go to check our voter cards. It is the highly restricted, internal database meant ONLY for INEC ICT officials and data managers. Yet, an APC member has the password to enter inside, see a citizen's secret tracking number, check his private details, and look at internal system steps.

This shows us two scary things: First, it means INEC has completely sold out. They have handed over their secret passwords to APC boys so they can spy on citizens' data whenever they want. Second, it means INEC’s computer security is totally broken. Their database has an open door where politicians can easily enter to pack, track, and change the data of over 90 million Nigerian voters.

If you think this is just a fight between big politicians, you are wrong. If the ruling party can sit in their house, log into INEC’s backend, and track who is transferring their PVC, exactly when they applied, and where they are moving to, then no opposition strategy is safe. Your privacy as a citizen does not exist.

This explains the magic numbers we always see during elections. When a political party has access to the computer backend, they can trace where voters are moving to. They can target specific transfers and reject them, stop registrations in areas where people do not like them, and fix the election results long before the election day. By using private data to bully people, they have proved what Nigerians have been saying all along: INEC and APC are using the exact same server room.

This is a big crime under the Nigeria Data Protection Act and it threatens our national security. INEC cannot just release one useless press statement to blame "glitch." The Data Protection Commission must launch a proper investigation immediately to find out the exact INEC staff whose password was used to leak this file. Also, the INEC insiders who gave out the password and the politicians who used it must be arrested and sent to jail under the Cybercrimes Act.

The battle for Nigerian democracy is no longer just about guarding ballot boxes at the polling units. The real war is now inside the INEC computers. If INEC has given its keys to the ruling party, then a free and fair election in Nigeria is a total lie. INEC Chairman must tell the nation the truth: Why is APC managing your backend?

[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

Yesterday in South Africa, after meeting with the ministers in the morning, I delivered a guest speech at the Spier Dialogue Event on “Policies for Growth in Africa” in Cape Town, where I reiterated that Africa has no reason to remain poor. Our continent is blessed with enormous natural and human resources. Africa holds huge mineral reserves, possesses over 60% of the world’s uncultivated arable land, and has the youngest population globally. These are not liabilities; they are strategic assets for economic transformation.

Yet, despite these enormous advantages, Africa continues to lag due to poor leadership, corruption, weak institutions, and the high cost of governance.

Africa must now look ahead and move forward with decisive action. We must shift our focus from politics and endless election cycles to productivity, development, and nation-building. The future of Africa lies in investing aggressively in Human Development Index (HDI) indicators, especially education, healthcare, and lifting people out of poverty.

Today, many African countries still record low life expectancy, high infant mortality, widespread unemployment, and growing poverty levels. Small and medium-scale businesses, which should be the engine of growth, are collapsing under harsh economic conditions, poor infrastructure, and policy inconsistency.

What Africa needs is competent leadership with the capacity, compassion, and commitment to prioritise production over consumption, and development over politics. If we invest in our people, strengthen institutions, reduce the cost of governance, combat corruption, and create an environment where businesses can thrive, we can build a more productive, secure, democratic, and prosperous Africa that works for all its people.

A New Africa is Possible. -PO

[Bro. Bonaventure @EBona69]

This evening, I sent 2 of Tinubu's best clips and 1 of Peter Obi's to one of my white friends in Germany and 2 of my Asian friends in China. I asked them to tell me who they think is smart.

Guess what, they all think the Tinubu's clips are doctored, they even asked if the man escaped from a mental home.
Shame just wear me Mgbeke pants 😕😕

Tinubu is really dumb.

[Agu Igbo @agulefoac]

@RealQueenBee__ From "subsidy gone!"

[Slim @onu_slim]

Let me give you the full picture because $1.25 billion that Tinubu wants to borrow is not the real number and that is exactly the problem.

Nigeria’s total public debt stood at N97 trillion when Tinubu took office in May 2023. By end of 2024 it had surged to N144.67 trillion. It has now climbed to approximately N159 trillion in 2026.

That is N62 trillion in new debt in under three years. On top of a debt pile that was already considered unsustainable.

Tinubu sent a letter to the House of Representatives requesting approval for $21.5 billion, €2.2 billion, and ¥15 billion in fresh external loans. The lenders include the World Bank, African Development Bank, Islamic Development Bank, China Exim Bank, and the French Development Agency.

The Senate already approved the full package. $21.19 billion in direct foreign loans plus €4 billion plus ¥15 billion. While Nigerians were arguing on social media.

Tinubu’s debt to GDP ratio has already crossed 50%, up from 38 to 40% when he took office. The Debt Management Office figures do not even include additional domestic borrowings projected for 2025 and 2026, the $1.118 billion Eurobond due in November 2025, or the annual $30 million Special Drawing Rights charges payable to the IMF.

The government says it is borrowing for infrastructure like roads, railways, healthcare, education. They have been saying this for 60 years. The roads are still broken, hospitals are still empty and the schools are still collapsing. But the debt keeps growing and the lenders keep getting paid first before any Nigerian sees a single kilometre of road.

Tinubu’s response to all of this? He said “Borrowing is not leprosy.”

No. Borrowing is not leprosy. But borrowing $21 billion while your currency has lost 70% of its value, while your citizens are rationing food, while your debt servicing already consumes more than your education budget, while every previous loan produced nothing visible, is not infrastructure financing.

It is a generational mortgage taken out in the name of people who had no vote and will spend their entire working lives repaying it.

At N1,550 per dollar that $21.5 billion is ₦33.3 trillion. Added to an existing debt of ₦159 trillion. Nigeria is not borrowing to build. Nigeria is borrowing to survive the consequences of previous borrowing and calling it a development plan.
