Pastor Adeboye and others have been praying for Nigeria since my childhood, Nigeria is not getting better.
Praying for 100 or 1000 days nonstop will not make this country better.
The problems are not spiritual.
If Pastor Adeboye can dedicate his time and platform to call out corrupt and selfish politicians, maybe things can improve.
A significant portion of those ruining our country today are followers of Adeboye. Some of them are “pastors” in RCCG.
God is not an author of confusion.
Wike Reveals How Peter Odili And Wife Rescued His Career
The Minister of the federal capital territory, Nyesome Wike, has been trending after a 2022 video resurfaced online, showing him eulogising Peter Odili, a former governor of Rivers State, and his wife, Justice Mary Odili, who he said rescued his political career.
The video comes after Wike slammed Peter Odili during a Thanksgiving service over comments he made regarding the mismanagement of Rivers States' finances.

According to the President of Niger Republic, Gen. Abdourahamane Tchani:
1. @NigeriaGov was v much aware of the formation of the Lakurawa terrorist group but ignored it. He says he personally he reached out to NIA & NSA to tell them & @NigeriaGov even sent a delegation
FAROTIMI: THE MANY WHYS!
Around 4:30pm of this day, Friday, the 13th of December, 2024, we stepped out of the Correctional Service (prison) in Afao road, Ado Ekiti, where we were with Dele Farotimi.
He speaks calmly but with loud message. He is unambiguous about it, that all he wrote in his book is the truth. One thing is clear from this visit and hours long talk, that Dele Farotimi knows things that the crowd does not know. He declared too that while he could not control whom Peter Obi would visit in Ekiti, he never sent anyone to Are Afe Babalola and he had warned those who had visited him, including Peter Obi, never to visit anyone to plead for his release. He wants this matter to travel the natural route.
He disowned in categorical terms, any move by anybody to beg anyone on his behalf or as a condition for his release.
He assertively, vibrantly and untiringly posited that if he had added a single lie to his claims in his book, he would lose heavily in this battle. But if his weapon remains all truth, he will have the last laugh.
Those who postulated that Dele Farotimi is reckless in his writings and documentations, should rather demand a fair play and a level play ground so that we could hear the other side. Citizens should be interested to know what he knows as proof. But Farotimi is kept in prison while his opponents are tooling up in law suits in Ibadan, Abuja and Rivers seeminly poised for a fight and funnily serving all these court processes on a man in his prison cell in Ekiti where he cannot readily make his defence.
A question that should bother all is that this book has been out for some time and WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG TO FILE ALL THESE LAW SUITS?
•WHY DID THEY HAVE TO WAIT TILL HIS ARREST?
•WHY DID THEY HAVE TO WAIT TILL HIS REMAND?
WHY DID THEY HAVE TO WAIT TO KEEP HIM OUT OF CIRCULATION AND HIS VOICE CUT OFF BEFORE RAISING THESE DUSTS?
•WHY DID THEY HAVE TO WAIT TILL NOW?
•WHY?
Is this how jurisprudence works?
Is this how history works? Has the Jurisprudence developed this way?
A man who is held up in cuffs and in gallows and some of us, in defence of the orthodoxy, are accusing a man in prison of blasphemy instead of demanding for justice for both parties, they are convicting and crucifying Farotimi unheard and at the home city of the Pilate.
This rain rains in torrents but it shall not rain for long. It shall be temporary. Soon things will unravel. The ground will be dry again.
The truth will win.

Dele Farotimi, a beacon of light,
With courage so fierce, it ignites the night.
In the face of darkness, he stands tall,
A voice for the voiceless, he answers the call.
Unyielding in spirit, with words like a sword,
He fights for justice, truth his accord.
Through trials and tempests, his resolve does not sway,
Dele's courage, a beacon, leading the way.
It’s now 13 days since Nigeria Police @PoliceNG abducted Mr Dele Farotimi from his office in Lagos, took him to Ekiti State and charged him for a crime that doesn’t exist in Ekiti State
#FreeDeleFarotimiNow
WHEN WILL AFE BABALOLA REPORT BAYO AOUNANUGA TO THE POLICE & WHEN WILL BAYO APOLOGISE TO THE JUDICIARY?????
2. Bayo owned the defunct TheNews magazine. This cover page mentioned the names of senior lawyers and judges allegedly involved in corruption.
2. When are those mentioned in the edition going to report Bayo in the manner they reported Barrister Farotomi.

Or is Bayo now protected by the "BLOOD OF DEMOCRACY"
@AishaYesufu@KemiBadenoch I find it difficult to believe that this post is emanating from the Aisha I know to be a human right activist.
You want to blame her for speaking the truth, just because she made some previous comments against the North.
I now know the type of activists we have in you.
@AishaYesufu@KemiBadenoch You are entitled to say Tinubu is not your president but pillory Kemi for saying the obvious about the Nigeria Police. That's hypocrisy
@kpapkando@vanguardngrnews You can never have a positive experience from this contraption called Nigeria.
If Nigeria has happened to you, you will understand the point she is coming from.
E go reach everybody one by one. Just wait and see.
Popular ex footballer, Tijani Babangida who played for Nigeria and wore the shirt of the Nigerian Super Eagles for 10years.
He had a tragic accident where he lost his only son, and his brother. His son was only 1year old when he died.
The accident, which occurred along the Kaduna-Zaria expressway in May2024, claimed the lives of Babangida's younger brother and his one-year-old son. His wife was also seriously injured, losing an eye and now needs face reconstruction surgery.
Tijani himself almost lost his legs; his wife is still battling for her life.
What did Nigeria do to help him?
What did the NFF do to help him?
What did our Ministry of Sports do to help him? Apart from go to the hospital for pictures when Tijani was in Nigeria, what exactly did the nigerian government do for Tijani after losing his son, his brother, and almost losing his own life and his wife?
Tijani had to pick up his Dutch passport and go back to the Netherlands where his former team Ajax have now received him and started raising money of about 170,000 Euros to help with his recovery.
How can you treat a man who gave ten years of his life representing this country in such a manner? That he now needs to go back to a football club to seek help.
As I said in another post,
This is a country that strangulates its brightest, suffocates its youths, disregards its veterans, asphyxiates its aged and empowers the very worst in our society to rule over the rest.
There is a deranged lunatic in Abuja right now running wild grabbing land and destroying people’s lives all because today he is a minister.
The first ever military cadet in Nigeria is about to have his house demolished and his land stolen by this lunatic. A military veteran who wore our gallant uniform and received bullet wounds fighting for Nigeria. This is how Nigeria repays those who give their lives for it.
There are retired civil servants who are owed their pensions across this country. Someone will work for 35years in the service of the public and retire yet a governor will decide to owe them their rightful pensions. Some of this old aged pensioners end up being sick, being hungry, being homeless and many end up dead from the many travails and suffering they face.
Yet in the same country,
A governor will be in office for only 4years and be entitled to cars, salaries, allowances and benefits for life. Read that again: for life! They are never owed a penny even when they are out of office.
But a person who worked as a teacher, or nurse or a civil servant for 35years will never be paid their gratuity for decades after retiring; and many of them will be owed pensions until they one day die in a road accident on one of their many trips to the government office to demand their entitlements.
And this is the same country that some delusional idiotic people want to blackmail others into patriotism. A country that will watch its own people rot in suffering - even the very people who have served the country with their blood, their toil, their sweat and their lives.
Before an American president asked the people not just to think what the country can do for them, America was already a country that gave its own people the best opportunities in the entire world.
People have pain and trauma that Nigeria has inflicted on them, and unfortunately they have a right to never wish to associate themselves with this mess called Nigeria.
You can’t blackmail people into patriotism. If a country has failed its own people and the government continues to fail its own people, it is demonic and delusional to be demanding patriotism.
The countries that demand patriotism of its citizens are countries that first ensure that its citizens are treated like human beings and have a life that is worth living.
So while I personally want more Nigerians abroad to speak well of Nigeria, I am very much aware this is a country that kills its best, strangulates its brightest, and empowers its very worst to rule over the rest.
My experience with the police in Nigeria was very negative, the would rob us, they stole my brother’s shoe and watch — UK Conservative Party leader, Kemi Badenoch
"The police in Nigeria would rob us. The police stole my brother's shoes and his watch. It's a very poor country, so people do all sorts of things."
