May Nigeria Succeed

[Aisha Yesufu @AishaYesufu]

The next couple of days will define the future of this nation. This deeper understanding is why I resigned from the African Democratic Congress (ADC) to join the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) as I follow the leadership of, HE Peter Obi, who today embodies the hope and aspiration of a Nigeria that works.  

When I give my word, I keep it. My decision to support HE Peter Obi first led me to the ADC. To continue to honour the promise I am joining the NDC.

This time I am joining the NDC not just as a member but as one running for the FCT Senatorial seat.

I have tidied up all my obligations to the ADC, ensuring a clean transition. I was fortunate to work with great and amazing people whose goal was a better country. I am grateful for the opportunity to have served as sub‑committee chair, deputy committee chair, and secretary at various levels.

The experience has been invaluable, and I thank everyone for their support and cooperation.

Yours In Service

[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

Fellow Nigerians, good morning.

I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you.

Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry daily—the private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances.

We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the people—a society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal.

More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism.

We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishness—a system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power.

Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise.

Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them.

However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building.

Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in one’s own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated.

And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions.

There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline?

Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from.

Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all.

A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Islam has always been a religion of peace in Nigeria during our military administration. However, we must stop tolerating notorious hooligans & fake self-proclaimed clerics like Sheikh Gumi, who are damaging the image of Islam in northern Nigeria & disrupting our nation’s peace.

[Aminu W. Tambuwal @AWTambuwal]

I have noted the reports concerning an airstrike carried out as part of ongoing counterterrorism efforts through cooperation between the Federal Government of Nigeria and the United States. I urge our communities to remain calm and law abiding as relevant authorities clarify the circumstances surrounding the operation.

I wish to assure the people of Sokoto South that I am in active talks with relevant security authorities to obtain full details and ensure that all necessary safeguards are upheld.

It is important to reassure the public that counterterrorism operations are targeted at criminal and terrorist elements who threaten our collective safety, and not at innocent civilians who are themselves victims of insecurity. The protection of civilian lives remains paramount and remains central to all legitimate security operations.

I commend the courage and professionalism of our military and security forces, who continue to work tirelessly, often in collaboration with international partners, to confront terrorism and banditry under extremely challenging conditions. Their sacrifice and commitment to restoring peace and stability deserve our full support and cooperation.

I also call on community leaders, traditional institutions, and residents to continue working closely with security agencies by sharing credible information and resisting misinformation that could heighten fear or tension.

Together, through unity, vigilance, and support for lawful security efforts, we will overcome the forces of terror and secure lasting peace for Sokoto State and Nigeria at large. -AWT

You are battling with insecurity, poverty,1 million out-of-school kids,amongst other terrible developmental indices but you’re forking out N10bn for Hajj even though Islam says it’s for those that can afford it. Same Kebbi spent billions on feeding and SUVs for traditional heads.

AMERICA AND THE QUEST OF EXPLOITATION IN AFRICA.

“Insecurity in Nigeria is Artificial and Man-Made that Affects Everybody”

By: Yahaya Ismail Al-tulmawi...

In recent days, The U.S. President Donald J. Trump publicly accused Nigeria of mass killing of the Christians faithfuls

[Yahaya Isma'il Al-tulmawi @altulmawi]

This incendiary approach signals more than just humanitarian concern it underscores how geopolitics, religion, and economic interests interplay in Africa, raising serious questions about the nature of America’s engagement and the underlying motives of such pronouncements.

[Yahaya Isma'il Al-tulmawi @altulmawi]

and relating it with the insecurity fueled against a particular religion neglecting the fact that it affects everybody, designating the country as a “country of particular concern” for religious-freedom violations and warning of potential U.S. aid cuts or military intervention.

Dangote: I laughed when, what do you call them?

R: NUPENG.

Dangote: I don’t even remember them. NUPENG said there will be job losses, but we not only bought 4,000 CNG trucks; we bought 10,000 trucks, 4,000 tankers, and 6,000 dry cargo.

[Dr. Yakubu Sani Wudil @yakubwudil]

The FG wanted to crash the price of rice. Instead of subsidizing fertilizers, gasoline, and provide modern farm equipment for our farmers, they decided to offer import waivers, building other country’s economy while our local farmers run at a loss.
