A Tale Of Two Presidents.
In 2017, the Late President Buhari sacked Ayo Oke after he had been linked to the theft of $43 million.
In 2025, Tinubu appointed Ayo Oke to represent Nigeria at the UN.
It seems we judge Buhari too harshly and an apology isn't a bad idea
APC is the most cruel party in the history.
This is Katsina State Governor dancing to Tinubu's song in a campaign rally hours after 7 seven communities were attacked and killed in his state.
Nigerians must vote these people out for our survivals
The @MBuhari University of Transportation, Daura, is one of @ChibuikeAmaechi’s undeniable achievements, a legacy built on tracks, not talk.

A truly compassionate, insecurity is unacceptable, we deserve a clear mandate for security agencies to intensify the efforts to protect every citizen. This is the leadership we need!!!
foxnews @PressSec : If the Nigerian government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the United States will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria and may take action to wipe out the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities
Nigeria is bleeding, and the urgency of our situation can no longer be ignored. Our nation needs honest leadership, unity of purpose, and courageous action to heal the wounds affecting our people.

In a country tired of insecurity, we must ask, who has actually faced down violence and restored order before?
Here is why Rotimi Amaechi’s security record matters for every Nigerian. 👇
As governor, Amaechi backed security agencies with logistics, equipment and training, including sending an anti-terror squad for special training abroad, instead of just issuing statements.
He supported a decisive offensive against violent gangs in Rivers, making clear that government cannot share territory with criminals.
He improved social welfare by providing free healthcare and education to ease the burden on families that usually drive young people into a life of crime.
The result was simple: Rivers, once a symbol of chaos, became a place investors and families could breathe again. Order returned because leadership took risks.
Nigeria today needs exactly that kind of courage, not people who wait for “intelligence reports” while children are abducted.
Amaechi’s approach to security is practical, not theoretical, invest in the people, build capacity, give security agencies clear backing, and take tough decisions early.
Imagine that mindset in Abuja, a president who has actually faced guns, not just microphones, and understands that safety is the first social contract.
If you believe Nigerians deserve to sleep with both eyes closed, Amaechi is not just a “candidate”, he is the test-run option that has already worked.
If you care about security, bookmark this and share. Nigeria cannot afford trial and error again.
It is clear that the government in power has no political will to curb the incessant killings and terrorist attacks plaguing our country today. The government has failed to provide adequate protection for its citizens, as evidenced by the surge in terrorist attacks and mass kidnappings in some parts of the country – challenging our national security. This failure to act decisively has sadly emboldened terrorists and eroded public trust.
The incessant attacks on innocent citizens in Plateau; the reported attack and kidnapping of secondary schoolgirls in Kebbi; an ambush on soldiers in Borno resulting in the abduction and killing of a Brigadier General, M. Uba; the attack on a church in Kwara; and the kidnapping of a priest, Rev. Fr. Bobbo Paschal, in Kaduna – all within a week – are too much to be ignored.
The Federal Government needs to step up its game, sharpen its response to terrorist activities, strengthen military intelligence and tactical operations, and live up to the expectations of its people.
To Mr. President: your primary assignment is the security of lives and property. Enough of looking the other way or issuing watery statements of condemnation. Prioritizing a summit or jetting out for whatever reason when Nigerians are dying can never be the trait of a good leader. It is time to probe wrong decisions, strategize, and make tough calls. The current situation calls for decisive leadership, stronger intelligence coordination, and accountability.
We did it in Rivers State; it can be done in the country. We are prepared to help if you request help.
Rt Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi
On the Abduction of Pupils and Teachers from St. Mary’s Catholic School, Papiri, Niger State
Within hours of the world marking World Children’s Day on 20 November, a day that reaffirms every child’s right to safety and education, terrorists stormed St. Mary’s Catholic Primary and Secondary Schools in Papiri, Niger State, abducting pupils, teachers, and shooting a security officer. I pray for the speedy recovery of the security officer, the safe return of every child and teacher that has been abducted, and the healing of the families whose sense of safety has been shattered.
This incident, which is coming in the same week as the kidnapping of innocent young girls from Maga in Kebbi State, shows a systemic pattern of violence that is targeting schools, places of worship, farms, and highways. At the same time, key security figures, including the Minister of Defence, the National Security Adviser, the Inspector General of Police and the Chief of Defence Staff, travelled out of the country for one engagement or the other. International cooperation is important, but when children are being abducted from schools, it is not enough to issue statements after the fact. Nigerians want to see visible, coordinated, decisive, and proactive action.
According to UNICEF, Nigeria already has more than 18 million out of school children, the highest number in the world. Each attack on a school does not only increase that number, it deepens the fear that learning is unsafe and the future is uncertain. When children are taken from classrooms, schooling becomes a risk, not a right, and parents begin to withdraw their children long after the guns go silent. These incidents damage not only today’s education, but tomorrow’s workforce, tomorrow’s economy, and tomorrow’s peace. A nation cannot plan for the future if its children are too afraid to prepare for it.
Nigeria does not lack security frameworks, what is missing is sustained commitment. The Safe Schools Declaration, which the Federal Government endorsed in 2018 with the disbursement of an initial sixteen billion naira in 2022 for the Safe Schools Programme, was intended to help secure learning environments. Under the current administration, this initiative has been left largely unfunded and dormant. We cannot claim to be serious about protecting schools while abandoning a critical national structure designed to do exactly that.
This is a moment for full national coordination, not scattered responses. The National Council of State exists for times like this. It is not a ceremonial gathering, it is a constitutional mechanism for drawing on the experience of former presidents and other senior figures to strengthen public order and give clear direction. If we will not use such an instrument now, when will we?
In 2022, the President, then a presidential aspirant, informed Nigerians that it was his turn to lead. If it is anyone’s turn, then it is also the turn of Nigerian children to be protected as a matter of urgency, while they acquire knowledge to help them direct our future. The right to lead cannot be separated from the duty to protect. Mandates are not upheld by chants or slogans; they are upheld by the safety and trust of the citizens — starting with the youngest and most vulnerable amongst us.
I have said before that Nigeria cannot defeat terror with guns alone. If people cannot make legitimate income, they will create illegitimate ones. Security is not only about operations, it is about opportunity, dignity and trust in the state. Nigeria still has the institutions, the intelligence and the human capacity to protect itself. The real question is whether leadership is ready to use them with the urgency, discipline and courage this moment demands.
Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi
Amaechi once served two full terms as speaker of the House of rivers state House of assembly and later governed the entire state for 8 solid impactful years. Talk about political consistency 👏
