and that's one thing he is good at. you cannot eat from his hand and hide, you must dance in the market with the food for everyone to know that he fed you.
no offense but this is why we need young people in places of power.
a 25-28 year old who did NYSC between 2022 and now won’t suggest half of these things, and they’re in a better position to suggest reforms.
it’s only someone who hasn’t been to camp recently that’ll suggest that people should be there for six weeks.
The flooding we are witnessing across Lagos is yet another reminder that waste management, stormwater drainage, and urban planning are inseparable. You cannot neglect one and expect the others to function effectively.
For over two decades, Lagosians have endured devastating floods while the APC government has offered little beyond excuses and reactive interventions.
Despite repeated promises, the city continues to flood year after year, with no comprehensive drainage strategy or innovative approach to building a climate-resilient Lagos.
Sadly, poorly regulated sand filling, unchecked development, the destruction of wetlands, and weak urban planning have displaced several vulnerable communities and exposed millions of residents to damaged homes, ruined vehicles, lost businesses, and reduced productivity.
Annoyingly, ordinary Lagosians continue to bear the cost of government failure.
Lagos deserves more than “continuity,” from a group of kleptocrats with fancy resume: It deserves leadership with the vision, competence, and political will to implement proactive, innovative, and sustainable solutions that make our city safer, more resilient, and more livable for everyone.

Tokunbo's new job, perhaps a hobby is to untag himself in posts complaining about the waste management systems in Lagos😂😂
Is that a new JD, chief? @tokunbo_wahab
What Truly Should Be Our Priority Now as Leaders of a Nation?
This question has become necessary, given where we are today as a nation and where we are supposed to be.
While completing my INEC nomination form yesterday, Section E, Question 1 caught my attention. It asks: “Have you ever been adjudged a lunatic or been declared a person of unsound mind?” The answer is either Yes or No. That question got me thinking: Can we, as the political leaders of today’s Nigeria, truly say we are exhibiting the characteristics of a sound mind?
When Nigerians, including children and security personnel, are being abducted into the bushes, citizens cannot travel safely on our highways, several million Nigerians are uncertain where their next meal will come from, and several billions are being siphoned frivolously through non-existent agencies and projects, should politics really be our primary preoccupation?
A sound-minded leadership would have declared these existential challenges a national emergency and immediately mobilised all relevant institutions, security agencies, experts, community leaders, and other critical stakeholders to confront them with urgency and resolve. At a moment like this, the survival, security, and stability of Nigeria must take precedence over every other consideration. This is a time for decisive action, not political calculation or the pursuit of partisan advantage.
Further in the same Section E, Question 6, was: “Have you ever presented a forged certificate to INEC?” Again, the answer is either Yes or No. This raises another important question: Why shouldn’t INEC, in the interest of ensuring that our leaders are exemplary in following the rules and to strengthen public confidence in our electoral process, publish the academic certificates and credentials submitted by every candidate seeking elective office?
Transparency strengthens democracy and builds public trust. Nigeria’s problems are too serious for politics as usual. It is time for leadership defined by competence, character, capacity, compassion, and commitment to service.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
We have successfully uploaded the name of our Presidential Candidate, His Excellency, Mr. Peter Obi, CON to the INEC Portal.
Keep the faith, We are in this together. ✌🏻✅
PO’s laser focus on the things that matter is truly phenomenal!
This is why this regime is terrified of him. His politics are unconventional, making him unpredictable and unstoppable. Furthermore, he pays attention to the issues that real people care about.
