Islam (and the North) seems to be a problem for many Nigerians, until it's time to buy goods and want trusted prices, then they try to locate the nearest Muslim/Northerner so they can buy at the cheapest.
Yar Adua was a core Muslim, didn't we all enjoy his short regime? Remember the late Imam Abubakar Abdullahi who also saved non-Muslims in Plateau State? Hiding over 262 Christians in his mosque and home. If he was a bigot, those Christians might have sadly lost their lives. You don't like Muslims but you rushed to buy Dangote's IPO to make possible future profit.
Religious discrimination and a fixed mindset won't take us anywhere. We need to fix up.

During my interview last night with the former senate president, Anyim Pius Anyim, the crucial question emerged: when politicians say it’s the south’s turn, which south are they talking about?
He talked about "the south's turn" and I challenged him to tell us: which south?
Because Nigeria’s south is not one political bloc. Obasanjo came from the south-west and had eight years. Tinubu, also from the south-west, is now being asked to take another eight.
So where, exactly, does this “south’s turn” leave the south-east? If “south” has effectively become shorthand for “south-west,” let’s have the honesty to say so.
And if Atiku can run in 2027 despite the supposedly sacred “south’s turn,” then perhaps we should stop pretending this is an equity argument. It’s a free-for-all.
Let every region produce its candidate. Let Nigerians decide. But please, let’s stop calling political preference “zoning” and selling it to Nigerians as equity.
Now, pour forth the torrent and set off a firestorm!
Kano to Abuja by taxi is now 25k, for goodness sake this was just 4k before Tinubu came to power. We are talking of less than 4 years ago.
Allowing Tinubu comeback 2027 is a suicide mission.
Today, on behalf of the Tinubu Must Go (TMG) community nationwide, we submitted letters to Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi, Seyi Makinde and Omoyele Sowore, calling for dialogue towards a united opposition front ahead of 2027. Unity, dialogue and national interest must come first. #TMG

My annoyance with all of these is, if Army overthrows this rubbish democracy, UN, ECOWAS, AU, EU et al will crying upadan. Nobody is talking against this undemocratic actions we see & hear everyday.
Obi: I believe in state police.
Kwankwaso: I don’t believe in state police.
Obi: I will not bring back subsidy
Kwankwaso: I will bring back subsidy.
4 months to election, presidential candidate and his Vice haven’t yet agreed on 2 very important policy decisions.
Meanwhile can you kindly explain NDC method of petrol subsidy as described by kwankwaso?
I am not campaigning for any politician, but the most realistic ticket we have that is capable of sending Bola and his minnions back to lagos is Atiku/Amaechi ticket.
Just imagine for a moment if the Iranian president stood up at the UN, imagine if Ahmadinejad had come to the UNGA, and said: “Do I annihilate the Jewish state, and do it quickly? Do I drive Israel into hell?”
Imagine the Western and global and media response and outcry.
Not interested in the rants but alas, gradually the facts will unveil.
I recall when I said earlier in 2023 that both APC and other elements were financing Peter Obi’s campaign clandestinely, as usual some of you did not believe and told me off. Delta, Edo and Cross River were the most evident. The funds James Ibori pumped into Peter Obi’s campaign just to undermine Okowa and Atiku is left unsaid.
Disagree with me when I say these things but facts will remain facts and eventually I’m proven right. The permutations and dynamics have changed, na now we go reacclimatize to Nigerian Politics 101
