I can't even remember when I made my first massa in life, neither can I remember when exactly I professionally started making massa. All I know is that my massa journey has been a fairly long one. Permit me to give you a brief story of this journey.

[Blaqboi Victor @blaqboi_vic]

How a government that can’t account for what happens to public funds is heavily taxing and asking citizens to account for the funds they make is baffling!

NIGERIAN STRAWBERRIES

Nigeria built the strawberry value chain on a runway..the plane left! Now the harvest has nowhere to go.

We’ve entered strawberry season (November - February) with no credible way to move berries out of Jos.

For years, Arik was the only lifeline. In our own operations, we paid more per kg in air cargo than we paid farmers per kg of produce. Logistics cost more than the fruit, and we still paid for it, because at least the berries arrived fresh and wholesome across the country.

But overnight, it collapsed, Arik stopped flying into Jos (Oct 2025). ValueJet is now the only carrier flying out from Jos, and they refused to carry strawberries.

So today, Nigeria has strawberries, but Nigeria cannot move strawberries.

So you would suggest using the road? Only if you’ve never tried it.

Fresh strawberries survive 1–4 days at room temperature. That is the entire window.

On our last attempt by road, we used Styrofoam boxes (additional cost), packed ice for 48 hours, turned prayer warrior against checkpoint delays and rough roads, but still lost 20–30% to sweating fruit, broken boxes, heat pockets and delays. You can’t get any refund, just absorb the losses and move on.
Road is not a solution today. It’s a controlled disaster.

One question from a farmer tells the whole story.

“Should I harvest, or let it rot so the loss impact is smaller?”

Peak harvest is here (15–30 tons/hectare), but farmers are debating whether picking their crop is the bigger loss. This is what a system failure sounds like, not some headlines or reports.

And this is not only a cold chain issue, the flaw runs deeper.

Nigeria built production without securing logistics, food security is logistics security. We’re not losing strawberries because farmers don’t know how to grow them, we’re losing them because a berry’s entire value chain depended on a plane we didn’t control.

If Plateau produces ~700 tons this season and we lose 50% due to lack of movement, 350 tons will rot in 120 days. By April, Lagos will import strawberries, puree and concentrate while fresh berries rot in Jos.

This season will decide whether Nigeria has a strawberry industry or just a strawberry harvest.

But this is the conversation Nigeria avoids, we celebrate yields without asking how food moves across the value chain, we talk about food security while losing food to logistics, not production, we push “value addition” while value dies at the farm gate, long before processing ever begins.

Strawberries are just the clearest example of a delicate fruit with a 4-day lifespan exposing a national blind spot.

However this isn’t a tragedy waiting to happen. It’s a test.

If harvest only creates beauty on the Plateau and scarcity in Lagos and the rest of the country, the numbers will speak louder than any report.

At the end of four months, one question will remain. What is the value of production if we cannot deliver the product?

Until we answer that honestly, we will keep planting pride and harvesting loss.

Copied.

[FS YUSUF @FSYusuff]

I beg you all in the Name of God, let’s not forget the 165 Children of St MARY Catholic School still in Captivity by Fulani Kidnappers

Please.

Please.

Lend your voices. Use your platforms. Keep demanding.

[Blaqboi Victor @blaqboi_vic]

Barely 24 hours ago, in an open fire, 12 miners were killed, 5 injured and 3 kidnapped by Fulani terrorist in Fan village, B- Ladi LGA(same as quoted tweet).

Meaning a back-to-back attack on the same LGA.

Again, you’re against foreign help because ‘sovereign country’? Really??

[Abu Amir @SadiqMaunde]

When they removed subsidy, they told you that the money would go into infrastructure & other basic amenities.

Subsidy, gone. Infrastructure, u never see.

Same people are today telling you to be patient & wait for the new tax law to take effect, & see the benefits.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Uncle Ruckus @Emarged]

You have absolutely zero reason as a citizen to be defending the Nigerian government, unless you are being paid by them to do so.

[Ife Salako @ifesalakooffice]

Prediction!

They lied to you for several years that paying fuel subsidy is the reason Nigeria is not progressing.

They removed subsidy, Nigeria is worse!

Now, they are forming Tax Reforms will make Nigeria progress.

They will start next year and nothing will change.

Simply because APC is FANTASTICALLY CORRUPT!

Ire o✌🏽

[Olusegun Bakare𓃵 @theboyisgreat]

The same people who loot our treasury will also loot your tax..

Nothing will change..

Accountability before Taxation.

[Savn Daniel @savndaniel]

The audacity to tax a people bedevilled by poverty and insecurity is just insane.

[Abu Amir @SadiqMaunde]

Jobs, you didn’t provide.

The data I will use to look for jobs, I buy with extra charges,

enter upwork & LinkedIn to hustle for jobs from foreign countries, & still give you 20% as tax,

every 10k that gets into my account I’m debited 50 naira,

No electricity, I will either get solar panels or i buy generator while still paying VAT on the gen,

Fuel subsidy is gone. The fuel I will put inside to power the gen, I pay extra tariff on it.

This is just criminal, evil, & pure wickedness!!!

[Black_Melanin🥰 @itz_taser]

In 2016 on Christmas day, I will never forget it.
Fulani herdsmen attacked my village, killed my cousins and other family members, burnt down my grandparents house, my uncles houses and people's houses. We spent our Christmas running for our lives.

Since then, anytime farmers go to the farm they don't always come back alive.

In 2021 my grandmother and my aunties went to the farm, they all were butchered, cut to pieces by herdsmen except for one who survived but lost her hand because they thought she was de@d.

On the 12 of December, the same village, some people were in the farm harvesting beans as usual, Fulani herdsmen came with their cows and started eating the beans, the women spoke to the Fulani herdsmen to remove their cows and they started attacking them, all of them ran for their lives except for one who fell down and Fulani herdsmen were able to amputate her hand and cut her shoulders. But thank God she was able to escape.

Yesterday @instablog9ja and @SaharaReporters posted it and told people she was attacked because her family rejected a marriage proposal by Fulani herdsmen. They changed the narrative and made everyone believe she was attacked because of a marriage proposal. This is the same village that has always been under attack by Fulani herdsmen since 2016.

I may not have a big voice here or a lot of followers but I'll not keep quiet and allow you to lie to everyone about this.

[Blaqboi Victor @blaqboi_vic]

4 kids ages 3,7, 9 & 17 were killed by fulani terrorist in Dorong, B- Ladi LGA, Plateau ,48hrs ago.

Terrorist fled, these kids are gone, security will promise to find culprits, GOV will release condolence statement and we’ll all go back to our lives until the next attack.

[The Biblical Man @Biblicalman]

My mother didn't speak to me for three months.

Not after a fight.

After a prayer.

I told her I was raising my kids differently.

No more passive faith.

No more "we're Christian because we say we are."

No more church twice a year and Jesus when it's convenient.

She took it personally.

"What's wrong with how I raised you?"

Everything.

And nothing.

She did her best.

But her best was Sunday mornings and silent dinners.

A Bible on the shelf, never opened.

A father who said grace but never led.

A family that looked Christian in the Christmas photo.

And fell apart behind closed doors.

I didn't want that for my kids.

So I started leading my home.

Family worship on Wednesdays.

Praying with my wife every morning.

Teaching my son what it means to be a man of God—not just a man who goes to church.

My extended family thinks I've lost my mind.

"You've become one of those people."

Holiday dinners are quieter now.

Some aunts don't call anymore.

My brother thinks I'm judging him.

I'm not.

I'm just not pretending anymore.

Jesus said it would be like this.

"I did not come to bring peace, but a sword."

"A man's enemies will be the members of his own household."

I used to read that and think it was metaphor.

It's not.

Following Him cost me the family I was born into.

But it gave me the family I'm building.

Last Wednesday my daughter asked if we could pray for her cousin.

The one whose parents are divorcing.

She folded her hands.

Closed her eyes.

And talked to God like He was listening.

Because in our house, He is.

My mother still doesn't understand.

Maybe she never will.

But my daughter will never wonder if her father loved God.

She'll never guess if faith was real in our home.

She'll know.

Because she watched it.

Every night.

Every prayer.

Every Christ-centered Christ-led ordinary Tuesday.

The family I lost?

They had my past.

The family I'm raising?

They have my future.

And my children's children will know the Lord.

Because someone decided the cycle stops here.

Even if it cost him Thanksgiving dinner.

Even if it cost him his mother's approval.

Some inheritances are worth losing.

So your kids can gain the only one that matters.

We’re entering a dangerous phase in Nigeria’s insecurity: terrorists have discovered TikTok and social media, and without realizing it, we’re letting them slip into our daily entertainment diet. Once their videos start getting the same attention as regular content, the line between criminals and creators begins to blur.

When we engage with these clips—whether out of curiosity, fear, or humour—we slowly strip away the shock that terrorism is meant to provoke. They stop feeling distant and menacing, and start feeling normal. That normalization is a psychological defeat; it pushes society into a deeper kind of apathy where nothing shocks us anymore.

And let’s be honest: the comedy skits about “singing a Hausa song to survive terrorists” are not just unfunny—they’re irresponsible. Turning terrorism into a joke, a meme, or a punchline reduces real suffering to mere amusement. Some things should never be trivialized.

[Dr Ayo @OluAyoola7D]

You are not a "Nigerian Christian" and you are mostly not a "Christian in Nigeria" and you are definitely not one of the affected "Christians in Nigeria" that definitely felt good about Donald Trump's position.

To put it fairly you are simply an APC fanboy who needs to continually work for his "pay". Whatever you said you didn't say out of the scarce goodness of your heart.

You are angry that Trump called Nigeria a disgraced country, where do you think they learnt it from?

Could it be perhaps from people like you who insulted GEJ, as a sitting President and his wife, likened one to a pig.

Nigeria is not a disgraced country, but I didn't see your outcry when APC began to draft bokoharam members into the army.

Nigeria is not a disgraced country, but Buhari and Tinubu had to employ SANs to defend their WAEC Certificate.

Nigeria is not a disgraced country but a whole Attorney General of the Federation was murdered and his family never got justice.

Nigeria is not a disgraced country but the chance of becoming wealthy as a bandit well supercedes your chances of achieving same as honest law-abiding citizen.

Scrap that, replace "becoming wealthy" with "staying alive".

And when you finally started saying the plenty of nothings that you wanted to say in the video, you stopped mentioning Trump and started saying America.

Of course, because your agenda and your false defense and love of Nigeria would not fly if you mentioned the name of the democrat American President who didn't sell weapons to Nigeria, and the Nigerian president who meant well but suffered the brunt of it.

Perhaps maybe if you move closer to Trump like you did MC "Qudus", may be you can get to understand.

Of course you didn't get to be "omojuwa" by being stupid, you just got to be "omojuwa" by being an articulate "beggar". I was not surprised when you and Bashir were at it.

Not a shabby skill, disgraceful but not shabby.

You want to defend the honour of Nigeria? You start by not supporting druggies, credit card fraudsters, touts, lying and thieving lawyers, and terrorists for elections in Nigeria.

Shio.

THIS DOES NOT CUT IT. Where are the abductors?? Were they killed? How many arrests were made ???
