The Battle for your joy cannot be fought with slacking shoulders,
When darkness approaches your door and knocks, you open with a roar,
We are not a people who shrink in the face of chaos...

How are you fighting for your joy today?

It doesn't have to be complicated.

[dele osunmakinde @deleosunmakinde]

Eternal security is found in Christ, not apart from Christ. Our confidence is not in a doctrine detached from a Person; it is in the living Christ, who is able to keep, preserve, and perfect all who abide in Him. "He is able to save completely those who come to God through Him" (Hebrews 7:25). "He is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory" (Jude 24).

However, sonship does not abolish human responsibility. Becoming a child of God does not mean you cease to be a free moral agent. God does not save you by destroying your will. Love cannot be coerced, and covenant cannot exist without response. You still possess the capacity to obey or rebel, to remain or to depart, to persevere or to forsake.

This is precisely why Jesus repeatedly commands, "Abide in Me" (John 15). Such an exhortation would be unnecessary if abiding were automatic. He warns that branches that refuse to remain in the Vine wither and are cut off (John 15:6).

Paul echoes the same truth: "Continue in His kindness; otherwise you also will be cut off" (Romans 11:22). The writer of Hebrews warns believers against "departing from the living God" (Hebrews 3:12) and repeatedly calls them to hold fast their confidence to the very end.

The believer's security is therefore the security of abiding union, not independent immunity. Christ has never failed to keep anyone who remains in Him, and He never will. His grip is unbreakable, but Scripture never encourages us to let go of Him.

The New Testament holds two glorious truths together without contradiction: God is mighty to keep, and believers are commanded to continue. We must never magnify one truth by silencing the other.

Eternal security is not a licence to drift from Christ; it is the triumphant assurance that everyone who abides in Christ is eternally secure because Christ Himself is their Keeper.If your goal is to provoke theological reflection, this version strikes a firmer, more compelling tone while staying closely aligned with the biblical exhortations to persevere.

Smh. Priorities.

To all Media houses - I did not quit. I did not step down. - Correct your headline

I fought for my senatorial ticket to the very end. A flawed primary was conducted and someone else was declared. I reject the narrative that I "quit."

What I did was choose, for the greater good of the party and the nation, to accept a flawed outcome rather than tear the NDC apart when a bigger fight looms.

The 2027 presidential election is the prize that matters in this electoral cycle. I am backing the better candidate in that race. That is where my energy belongs.

Let no media house rewrite history. Correct your headlines. Posterity is watching.

WHY THE SENATE?

I have spent years calling out the problems.

Now I am seeking the platform to implement the solutions.

From the outside, I could shout.

From the inside, I can legislate.

From the outside, I could demand.

From the inside, I can enforce.

A better Abuja will not build itself. It requires constitutional power

[Aisha Yesufu @AishaYesufu]

This is indeed a beautiful news!

[Aisha Yesufu @AishaYesufu]

Abuja does not have a State of Assembly and gets the shorthand when it comes to legislation specifically for the Abuja people. There is a need for #AbujaBillsForAbujaPeople

If I clinch the NDC TICKET to run for the FCT Senate seat and get voted by the good people of FCT Abuja, some of the bills I will be proposing include the following:

1)Abuja Residents Security Bill

2)Abuja Residents Empowerment Bill

3)Abuja Infrastructure Bill

4)Free Maternal Health Bill

5)Indigenous Rights and Land Protection Bill

6)FCTA Accountability Bill

7)Abuja Education Bill

ONE: Nobody should fear for their life in Abuja.
Abuja Residents Security Bill—community policing in every neighborhood. Solar streetlights in high-risk areas. Quick-response emergency teams. You should not be afraid to come home at night.

TWO: Your sweat must pay. Your hustle must count.
Abuja Residents Empowerment Bill—mandating quotas for youth- and women-led businesses in government contracts. The Rent Control component of my Bill will protect you from unjust rent hikes. Double taxation elimination,  Skills Empowerment spending that empowers Abuja residents with real skills. Access to Capital mandates that ensure a portion of Abuja taxes is used to provide microloans to support businesses.

THREE: Water. Roads. Light. Healthcare. These are not favors—they're your rights.
Abuja Infrastructure Bill clean water for residents through solar-powered boreholes. 
Roads in Abaji, Kwali, Bwari, Gwagwalada, Kuje and the neglected parts of AMAC - FIXED.
Primary Healthcare Centres are upgraded with an adequate number of doctors, medical supplies, and reliable emergency services.
 Schools renovated.
 This is not optional. This is your right.

FOUR: Pregnancy is not a death sentence.
Free Maternal Health Bill, 
Comprehensive care for every pregnant woman, regardless of how much money you have.
Mobile clinics reaching rural communities. 
Maternal waiting homes near health centers. 100,000+ women served. 
No woman should die giving life.

FIVE: They can't just take your land and bulldoze your house.
Indigenous Rights and Land Protection Bill—
Full compensation for ancestral lands. 
Land Rights Tribunal. 
No demolitions without proper notice and fair payment. 
Affordable housing for middle- and low-income families. 
Your dignity is not negotiable.

SIX: You will see where every kobo goes.
FCTA Accountability Bill—
every budget, every contract, every demolition order. 
You will SEE it. 
TRACK it. 
QUESTION it. 
The minister will be mandated by law to engage Abuja residents before drafting budgets or spending. 
Your needs must be captured in the budget. 
FCTA will no longer see bloated and inflated contracts used to enrich corrupt politicians. 
When everything is in the open, the thieves have nowhere to hide.

SEVEN: I will fight for an Abuja Education Bill — No Child Left Behind.

EVERY CHILD DESERVES QUALITY EDUCATION. NOT JUST THE ONES WHOSE PARENTS CAN AFFORD PRIVATE SCHOOL.

Public schools renovated with proper classrooms, libraries, science labs, and sports facilities. Scholarships covering tuition, WAEC, NECO, and JAMB fees for indigent students. Teacher recruitment and training programs. Competitive salaries to attract and retain quality teachers.

ICT training centers in all the area councils for training youth in digital and coding skills. Universal access to quality primary and secondary education across all six area councils.

A BETTER ABUJA MEANS EDUCATION IS NOT A PRIVILEGE FOR THE RICH. IT'S THE FOUNDATION OF EVERY CHILD'S FUTURE. AND I WILL FIGHT TO GUARANTEE IT FOR EVERY ABUJA CHILD.

#NDC- SERVICE

[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.

[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

I’ve been quiet… not absent.

I was building, protecting, and embracing the greatest blessing of my life.

[Simi @SympLySimi]

I haven't been on twitter today - but someone brought a few of my old tweets to my attention and I can't not address it.

14 years ago, I was 23, so I was definitely not a child. I'm not here to make excuses because I don't have anything to make excuses for. What I can't let anyone do is twist my story to fit false narratives.

In 2012, I lived and helped out at my mom's daycare while I was hustling my music. I tweeted everything that happened in my life, as we all did at the time. Kids can be mischievous. If a child did something I found funny, I tweeted about it. Kids are cute and lovable. I want to hug, kiss and cuddle them. I tweet about it. Nothing I tweeted was from perversion.

I was not famous, so maybe if I was, I would have understood that anything is open to whatever interpretation including being used falsely by a faceless mob. I've never been depraved in my life. You can retweet all the tweets in the world about me loudly crushing on people I admire/d. Or being a cheeky young woman. I wasn't trying to hide it, because I don't have anything to hide.

My team has been deleting some of my tweets because of how sensitive it is for my family. To be honest, I did not want to. I have always spoken against rape and sexual assault even before you knew I existed. It's not a costume I'm wearing, it's who I am. I've never claimed to be perfect. I've never claimed to know everything. I said stop raping women. I stand by it.

[Emeka @Emeneks]

I will NEVER apologize for standing against abuse, Rape and Sexual Assault.

If you’re expecting an apology from me or expecting me to backtrack, you’ll be VERY disappointed

[Simi @SympLySimi]

What about them?? Why are you asking me about something I didn't talk about? Why is your response to "stop raping women" >> "what about false accusers?" WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH WHAT I SAID????

[Amakason @Amakasonn]
