We Are Finished!
I join millions of Nigerians in wishing Her Excellency, Mrs Oluremi Tinubu, a happy birthday. May God Almighty, who has been with her all these years, grant her many more healthy, fruitful, and happy years.
However, I was struck by irony reading her request: that instead of cakes or newspaper adverts, well-wishers should donate toward completing the National Library in Abuja. On the surface, it is noble and selfless. But beneath it lies an indictment of our nation.
I recall that, as Governor of Anambra State, I too urged that money meant for adverts be channelled into meaningful causes—computers for schools and classroom blocks. Such gestures were never meant to replace the government’s duty but to complement it. The state still bore the responsibility of providing those essentials. That is why it is shocking that, in our present circumstances, while billions are easily found for jets, yachts, unused mansions, endless trips abroad, and other frivolities, the nation must rely on birthday donations to complete its own National Library.
What kind of country must beg for charity to build the very temple of knowledge? What kind of leaders waste trillions on luxury and vanity, while the National Library - our intellectual furnace - remains abandoned in the capital? Serious nations treat libraries as sacred; but here we reduce them to afterthoughts, begging bowls, or birthday tokens.
Mrs Tinubu was right: education is the most enduring legacy a nation can give its people. Yet to know this truth and still prioritise vanity is both shocking and tragic.
If Nigeria will rise, it will not be on the wings of jets or the splendour of mansions, but on the strength of minds formed in classrooms and nourished in libraries. Until then, the lament remains true—we are finished. -PO
You can’t hear these kind of stories and tell the victims, as the president that “I have just 10 minutes to be here”, or as his supporter, say that “people are kidnapped everyday in their homes”. This isn’t politics. People are actually losing their lives in the most brutal way.
For the second time, guys.
If you live in Nigeria and have no financial strength to relocate anytime soon, treat the 2027 election as a priority. See it like your life depends on it, because in actual sense, it does.
Listen to me: Tinubu will be ruthless with policies if he wins again. The economic frustrations will push many to the edge of suicide. Nobody will come to your rescue.
After 2027, Tinubu, Akpabio, and most governors will be done. No more elections. They will definitely have nothing to lose.
They’ll retire comfortably in their mansions scattered across the US, Canada, UK, and Europe… while regret becomes your daily meal.
Be smart with your vote in 2027.
All these niggas are lame sha.
The money need begin enter real niggas hand abeg.
Go drink strong tea in the woods of China’s with Bad Bs, or play piano at a quiet wedding in Berlin or ⛳️ in Russia why una even dey Nigeria dey carry shoulder for sweaty night clubs.
Perfect case in point of what it means to have colonised media.
A group of women came together to protest against an unjust colonial tax in 1929. The colonial authorities needed to break up the protest, so they called it a "riot" even though women quite clearly cannot "riot" in the conventional sense.
Using the language of "quelling a riot", the colonial oyibos used firearms and other extreme forms of violence to put down the protest. They shot 55 women dead in the process
97 years later, the descendants of these martyred women are still using the language of colonial racists from 1929, calling their own ancestors' anti-colonial movement a "riot".
Just your friendly neighbourhood CIA man reminding you that even if they "freed" you in 1960, most of you have still not freed yourselves.
Whenever you wake up...
@marcus_herve Why is a black woman being used in this image? Why not an Arab woman, which would be geographically accurate?
There's no need for us to take part in our own dehumanisation by posting images like this. Black women are not sex objects.
Hello Nigerian police, today is Wednesday. I want to believe these four policemen are on their way to Abuja now to see the IGP, every single person on here is interested in this case so we hope their trip isn’t just formalities that’ll end with a pat at the back. We also hope their judgement will be televised like they tr@umatised those innocent boys. WE ARE WATCHING VERY CLOSELY !!
“This Experience Will Not Repeat Itself” - Another Presidential Promise fails in less than 24 Hours.
Less than 24 hours after President Tinubu stood at the Jos Plateau State airport on April 2, 2026, and promised the grieving Nigerian citizens, “I promise you that this experience will not repeat itself,” another brutal attack occurred in Nyamgo Gyel, Jos South LGA, resulting in the deaths of several innocent citizens.
Since then, and only a week following that reassuring promise from the President, Nasarawa State has been plunged into grief as the Akyawa and Udege Kasa communities fled for their lives after gunmen killed at least 11 people. Many homes were reduced to ashes, and numerous families remain missing.
In Zamfara State, 150 innocent Nigerians were abducted from the Kurfa Danya and Kurfan Magaji communities in one of the largest mass kidnappings in recent times. On the same day of the Zamfara kidnappings, terrorists in Borno State stormed Chibok, killing four officers and burning down homes.
Yesterday, on Easter Sunday, Benue State was rocked by violence again, with over 17 Nigerians massacred, entire communities left in ruins, and many individuals still unaccounted for. Today, in Kaduna State, several innocent citizens were killed by terrorists inside churches, with many others abducted in the Ariko community of Kachia LGA.
Yet we were told, “This experience will not repeat itself.” This represents a failure of leadership and responsibility, and sadly, Nigerians are paying for it with their lives.
These attackers are not ghostly figures; our inaction emboldens them. How can a President make such a categorical promise and, mere hours later, the nation continues to count the dead across multiple states? The primary responsibility of any government is to protect lives and property; however, this responsibility is failing today. Nigerians are being slaughtered in their homes, in their communities, and in the very places they should feel safest. Even the President did not enter these communities, so who is truly safe in Nigeria?
This is a national emergency. Nigeria is bleeding, and the situation is worsening and increasingly helpless.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
Good morning to you sir IGP @TunjiDisu1
It was reported that you have ordered Dpo Satellite town in Lagos to bring the policemen involved in the recent viral video to Abuja on Wednesday 8th April, 2026 for disciplinary action.
We want to humbly request you televise the disciplinary action live on social media. over the years we only hear “audio disciplinary action” no proper disciplinary action in the real time when clip like this goes viral, because before you know it the same officers are back on the road doing their unlawful and criminal jobs.
So pls televise your own disciplinary action on these particular police officers that was caught in that viral clip, let Nigerians know your own is not “audio”
I don’t think this is too much to ask, Have a nice Easter celebration as we Nigerians expect your action regarding this request.
RT plss.
Governor Amuneke went to the market to share rice to market women, Baba Beji come enter wn use mouth finish those people collecting the rice from governor Amuneke 🇳🇬😭
The Nigerian police are a disgrace, @PoliceNG_CRU@NigeriapolicePR@PoliceNG i can't trust these guys to follow them inside. You are doing stop and search by the road, you want to force them inside so you can rob them? At the sight of foreign nationals, their illegal instinct kicked in. The whole station must be running a serious crime there, investigate these men and relieve them of their duties to go and do something else. These are the people that always give you a bad name. No Nigerian should trust these men in uniform disguising as policemen.
