I carry the gospel of Peter Obi and NDC everywhere and anywhere I go....at home, at work, in transit, in church, at the salon, gatherings, market etc.
So today, once again, I did my own little evangelization in church.
Our people have been completely defeated psychologically. It’s crazy how much people no longer believe that anything good can come out of Nigeria. And, to be fair, I don't even blame them.
I was talking to about four women about the importance of participating in the 2027 elections when one of them simply said to me,
"There’s no point voting. Is not like our vote counts besides Azikiwe has long sold out the Igbos, so we're wasting our time voting in Nigeria."
I was speechless for a second. 😭
I had to think of a way to make them see things differently.
I started by telling them that Zik did not "sell out" the Igbos to Nigeria. But even if we assume, for the sake of argument, that he did, Zik is long dead. Is continuing to blame him going to change the situation we find ourselves in today? Are we going to continue with the lamentations while we perish?
I talked, preached, begged and tried to make them understand that giving up completely only means surrendering our lives to these crooks.
I reminded them that we cannot continue to wait for God to come down from heaven to fix the country for us. That God has given us a great option so now we have our own responsibility to play.
Before Mass ended, I wasn't sure I'd completely convinced them, but at least two of them smiled and said,
"Oh, okay, we have heard you."😂
We clearly have a lot of work to do, especially when it comes to voter participation in Nigeria.
Voter Apathy is becoming a serious concern in the South-East. My people have lost faith in government and no longer believe their participation can ever make a difference.
Very sad, I tell you 😟😭
#NigeriaMustBeOK ✌️
CIVILITY IS NOT WEAKNESS. ENOUGH OF THE HARASSMENT OF MY SUPPORTERS. RELEASE RILWAN OLAWALE NOW.
The continued intimidation and harassment of my supporters across the country, the latest being the case of Rilwan Olawale, is disturbing and unacceptable.
President Bola Tinubu has remained a huge beneficiary of our democracy and should not brazenly be destroying it by encouraging and facilitating violence.
Our campaign is peaceful and issue-driven, focused on offering Nigerians a credible alternative built on competence, accountability, justice, and compassion.
We have chosen the path of peace, not violence; persuasion, not intimidation. However, nobody should mistake our civility for weakness, our restraint for fear, or our commitment to peace for an absence of resolve. We will not be intimidated into silence, nor will we abandon Nigerians who believe in a New Nigeria that is possible and will be OK.
I therefore demand transparency regarding Rilwan Olawale’s arrest, his release, respect for his rights, and an end to politically motivated harassment. No government or political party has the right to deny Nigerians the freedom to support a candidate of their choice.
We will remain peaceful but resolute. We will not resort to violence, but we will stand firmly and lawfully against every attempt to undermine our democratic rights.
A New Nigeria is POssible and will be OK. -PO
I'm at @richone090's house right now.
His mother is traumatised
The @OfficialDSSNG stormed his house like a thief brandishing heavy guns and basically kidnap this young man for no crime whatsoever.
Is campaigning against Tinubu noe a crime?

APC well-done
Dear Obidients, this is what the APC in Edo State did to a comedian MC Porkupyne, simply because he criticises the state government and the APC in general.
These same APC people will come online and gaslight you about being toxic and insulting. Obidients, you guys are not toxic enough. You need to triple and quadruple your dose of toxicity.
People who are responsible for political violence offline will come online and complain when you demand accountability from the government of the day. We have seen people lose their lives over, to APC thugs, most recently in Enugu!.
Yet when we call them out online, they turn around and call us cult!sts and toxic.
If you have been insulting them at 1% before, increase it to 1,000%. Make them uncomfortable with your questions, your criticism and your demands for accountability.
They hate what they cannot control.
