One category of people I struggle to take seriously are those who speak from both sides of their mouth.
One minute, you claim you do not support mass weddings. The next minute, you are busy comparing societal evils to determine which one is more acceptable.
So because fornication exists in parts of the South and West, the answer is to normalize and celebrate systems that continue to produce thousands of children whose parents lack the means, preparation or support structures to raise them adequately? So you won't bother to sweep your house because your neighbour's house is more dirty?
How exactly does one social problem become the justification for another?
This is the part I find intellectually dishonest.
If you support something, own it with your full chest. Defend it. Explain its merits. Present the evidence.
But please do not pretend to oppose it while simultaneously constructing arguments in its defence.
Some of us will disagree with you because we are capable of identifying contradictions when we see them.
The unfortunate thing about public discourse today is that many people have become so accustomed to speaking to audiences that never question them that they become irritated the moment someone does.
May Allah never place our livelihood in a position where truth becomes too expensive to speak.
In their usual way, they are about to turn this discussion into a religious one. No one is questioning your religious beliefs.
The discussion is about wasteful spending of the government in matters that do not concern governance. The lack of social, economical and religious value of mass wedding, nothing about the oneness of Allah and how Islam comes before everything else.
Even the religion that you easily run to never admonished marrying people off as charity, it specifically stated that anyone incapable of marriage should fast.
Stop hiding under Islam to perpetuate evil.
Islam is a complete religion and you are not a better believer than others.
@almuktar4009@OmogbolahanAbi5 And does this if at all it's a fact justify the government of a state to be sponsoring mass weddings?
Why on earth should any government spend the tax payers money to sponsor a wedding for a group of people who can't feed themselves? Why waste state resources?
We also need to tell ourselves the truth in the North.
It’s 2026, our governors should not be sponsoring mass weddings in an era of widespread unemployment, insecurity, and poverty.
What is the logic behind sponsoring mass weddings for grown men who are struggling to support themselves?
Wouldn’t it be more beneficial to help them secure livelihoods before encouraging them to take on the responsibilities of marriage and family life?
I am the last person anyone can threaten or blackmail with promises of future favours or opportunities over what I say or do today. One of the firm resolutions I have made in life is this: Nothing destined for me shall ever be taken away or withheld from me.
Therefore, I remain completely unbothered by subtle or blatant threats. I cannot be silenced.
My path is divinely secured. My voice remains free.
At the moment and due to the security situation in the country, I do think that:
1. NYSC should not post people too far away from their state of origin or residence. If possible, the DG of NYSC should consider suspending NYSC posting for the time being.
2. Law school should consider suspending posting or post people to not to far away campuses from their state of origin or residence.
3. The Body of Benchers should consider virtual call to bar for bar aspirants as opposed to mandatory physical call to bar ceremony in Abuja.
The above have become necessary due the spate of kidnapping of travellers across different states. Covid_19 has shown the world how it’s possible to make life easier for people and still get things done the best possible way.
With respect, this post raises valid pains but suspends logic for emotion and selective facts. Reforms are not “reckless punishment”, they are necessary corrections to decades of unsustainable distortions.
Now, let us examine your points with evidence, not assumptions, as it appears to me, no any logical or factually grounded counter has been offered, just heat.
Point 1 - “Strips benefits, offers virtually nothing”:
False. The FG has deployed massive palliatives: N5bn+ per state in food/fertiliser, expanded cash transfers (HoPE-CT/NG-CARES reaching millions), ₦25k+ wage awards, pension support, and NELFUND student loans (hundreds of billions disbursed to over a million students). CNG initiatives are rolling out conversion centres and stations nationwide to cut transport costs. These are documented bridges, not “nothing.” World Bank and IMF have noted these efforts alongside stabilisation gains.
Point 2 - No investments, factories, or electricity:
The savings and new revenues are funding real infrastructure. Coastal Highway, Sokoto-Badagry Expressway, AKK Gas Pipeline, rail expansions, PHC revitalisation (thousands upgraded), and power reforms under the Electricity Act enabling states/private players. CNG push is creating jobs in conversion and maintenance. IMF 2025 Article IV praises bold reforms (subsidy removal, FX unification) for improved resilience, revenue, and investor confidence. No “Industrial Revolution” overnight, structural change takes time, but direction is clear. Pre-reform trajectory was fiscal collapse.
Point 3 - Wealth transfer to elites:
Increased FAAC allocations have enabled many states to pay salaries consistently (impossible pre-2023 in several cases) and fund projects. Yes, governance challenges and leakages exist, so it is in order to demand accountability. But dismissing all as “private pockets” ignores visible projects, tax reforms for equity, digital registries for transparency, and private sector responses (NGX rally on reform signals). Local Government autonomy ruling further decentralises development. Not perfect, but not “purely wealth transfer.”
Point 4: Hardships & “Suffering without purpose”:
Hardships are real; inflation, fuel costs hit hard. No denial. But calling it purposeless ignores expert consensus: World Bank notes reforms stopped Nigeria from “fiscal cliff” and created space for people-centred actions (social safety nets, food inflation fight). IMF highlights stabilisation, growth potential, and resilience. Electricity/security are inherited + multifaceted problems; efforts like CNG/gas value chain and state police pushes address them. Reversing to old subsidy regime solves nothing, it returns debt and shortages.
I agree, implementation can and must improve, better targeting, communication, anti-corruption. But your response presents a one-sided “elitist, futile” narrative that downplays necessity and documented progress.
True reform serves people long-term by fixing fundamentals. Painful? Yes. Reckless? No. Evidence shows deliberate direction with light ahead for those who see beyond immediate emotion.
Disagree on gaps? Fair game. But let’s engage facts, not suspend logic. Demand better execution from all leaders across all levels of government, without cherry-picking.

I boarded one korope to pack some chairs and table and charged me 10k. But to appreciate his efforts, I paid him 15k instead. When I got home I discovered that I forgot my original cord and power bank in his car. Luckily, it was an Opay account that I paid into, so I called him immediately and he promised to bring the cord and the powerbank the next day.
Today makes it 5days, no cord, no power bank and he has stopped picking my calls.
That’s an average Nigerian!
Zero integrity
One of the heaviest burdens as a father raising children is the unchecked wave of indecency and social vices that have become the everyday backdrop of our public spaces. Eateries, supermarkets, markets, streets, and beaches; places that should be neutral grounds for family outings have turned into open arenas where moral boundaries are blurred or completely erased whilst social vices are now the new normals.
You take your kids out for a simple meal, and right there in the booth next to you, a young lady is dressed in ways that leave nothing to the imagination, while companions and others engage in loud, vulgar conversation laced with profanity that no child should hear. Walk into a supermarket on a Saturday, and the aisles are filled with music videos blasting explicit content on the screens, teenagers openly displaying affection that borders on the obscene, and adults who should know better laughing it off like it’s normal.
The markets? Even worse. Hawkers, traders, and passers-by throw around language and gestures that make you instinctively cover your children’s ears and hurry them along. The streets are no sanctuary either.
From Victoria Island to Lekki and everywhere in between, the beaches that used to be refreshing escapes have become spectacles of moral decline; half-naked bodies on full display, public intoxication, and scenes that make you question what kind of society we are building.
Anyone grounded in strong cultural and family values will be deeply disturbed. The danger is not just what they see once in a while. It is the slow, constant exposure that normalizes indecency and moral decadence in public places, where people of different ages assemble and interact.
Children begin to think this is how adults behave. That revealing dressing is fashion. That vulgarity is confidence. That disrespect for personal boundaries is freedom. Before you know it, the foundation you are trying to build at home starts cracking under the weight of the streets.
For anyone who pays enough attention, you see the downstream effects every day, broken homes, rising cases of exploitation, loss of dignity, and a generation that is losing its sense of shame.
We must refuse to pretend this is not happening. Many parents are quietly battling the same thing and shielding their children while trying not to make them feel like outsiders in their own city. We monitor what they watch, the friends they keep, the routes we take, and still, the environment fights us at every turn.
We cannot continue like this. Those who still hold firm to decency, character, and responsibility must speak up louder. We must raise our children with even stronger counter-values at home. We must demand better from our communities, our leaders, and the businesses that profit from turning public spaces into moral free-for-alls.
Our lands have so much potentials, beautiful, vibrant, full of opportunities but we are losing our soul if we allow this decay to continue unchecked.
Fellow parents, especially those rooted in tradition and faith, let us not sleep on this. Our children are watching. The question is: what kind of adults will they become if we do not fight for their innocence in the middle of this chaos?
@winexviv Yes, she didn't introduce the form 13 but acted on it even when it's in violation of human rights of the students.
All this meaningless defense for Oti .
It's under her leadership that a student's life was lost carelessly.
