In 2014, as a First-Class graduate, Peter Obi recognised and rewarded my academic achievement with β¦1,000,000.
12 years later, in Abuja, I stood beside him again, this time as a communication professional with a voice of my own.
My support for him is deeply personal, rooted in a moment I have never forgotten. H.E Mr. Peter Obi invested so much in education that the gains of his good works still remain for all to see.
From recognition to responsibility. From the classroom to the public square. π³π¬
Do not forget to join Mr. Peter Obi in a New Nigeria Global Digital Townhall on Sunday, October 4, 2026, time is 7:00 PM WAT/GMT | 2 PM EST | 12 PM MST. Attendance is by registration. Visit: https://t.co/56CzQeCgsq.
A new Nigeria is POssible.

Dear Lagosians,
In 1980, Alhaji Lateef Jakande started the construction of the then non-existent Lekki-Epe Expressway, to connect the Eastern axis of Lagos State by road to the rest of Lagos.
By December 1983, when Muhammadu Buhari & his band i of coupists struck, he had completed it to up to 53km, at Ibeju-Agbe town.
Buhari ordered a stop to ALL development works in Lagos State, including the Metro Rail Line Project that had already been paid for in full, & the Lekki-Epe Expressway.
Commodore Gbolahan Mudashiru, appointed Governor by Buhari, an indigene of Ikorodu, Lagos State, instead reduced the scope of the project to single carriageway and connected Ibeju-Lekki to Epe regardless.
In 2003/2004, Tinubu, from Iragbiji, in Osun State, signed the Lagos State PPP board. In 2006, he suddenly announced that LCC had "won" the concession for the Lekki-Epe Expressway, with no public or private bidding process, & the project was valued at β¦50b at the time.
He then also announced the transfer of 1500 hectares of prime, beach front land to Messrs ARM Ltd, gratis, as Lagos State's "contribution" to the funding of the Lekki-Epe Expressway "expansion" project. Lagos State was selling plots at Abijo Residential Scheme at the time at β¦5m per plot. The 22,500 plots at Lakowe would therefore cost about β¦67.5b, with a 40% discount off Abijo, just 10 minutes away.
Not long after, a $42m "mezzanine loan" was granted to LCC/ARM by LASG! Again, more state contribution to the ostensibly "private" project.
The concession agreement grants sweeping powers to LCC, & is reminiscent of colonial "protectorate" agreements in its letter and its spirit, but that was always the intention, as we have seen over time.
The Lakowe land was used as collateral for a $340m syndicated loan, provided in tranches of $85m each by UBA Capital (Elumelu - now you understand the "Prezzdential" visit), Stanbic IBTC, Standard Bank of South Africa and African Development Bank (years before Akinwunmi Adeshina).
Tolling began when construction barely reached km 6, and the construction remains UNCOMPLETED till date. 17 years under construction, for a dual carriageway that was at 53km within 3 years, FORTY YEARS AGO!
I keep hearing 4th Mainland Bridge, at almost β¦1 trillion as of 2019. With the devaluation of the β¦ since then, we're looking easily at over β¦1 trillion now, plus another 20 years to complete, based on their record on Lekki-Epe Expressway, plus 50 years tolling, and the near complete demolition of Ikorodu, Badore and parts of Lekki from behind the Lagos Business School.
If you still vote for APC in Lagos State after reading this, you deserve everything that will surely befall you if they win.
Postscript: At the height of Tolling of Lekki-Epe Expressway & Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge, a certain individual was earning a fantastic sum running into hundreds of millions DAILY in CASH. Now you understand the kerfuffle surrounding the new notes.
You also understand the why of the #LekkiTollGateMassacre
π¨ LMAO!! President Trump drops this priceless line on βGays for Palestineβ movement:
βI saw it today and I said, wait a minute. Gays for Palestine. Do you know what they DO to gay people in that part of the world?!β π
"Let's send them over someday to negotiate. Let's see. You'll never see them again!β π
Anyone else notice that leftists NEVER just relocate themselves to their Islamic nation of choice that they advocate for?
If itβs so good, go live there and put yourself where your mouth is! THEY WONβT.
Because they know deep down itβs a violent shthole.
@ObiOfala@TheEastGuy1 You're not wrong, the ones that go by such nicknames are those that have served prison time. I have met like 2 with such nickname
@999jah__@chudy_jnr@ALERT_79581550 You must me a stupid fellow... it's like you lack comprehension or you're a dunce . Is the discussion about where it is used or who it's used for? Wawa is Nkanu dialect used mainly by Nkanu. A moron π€‘...get the fuck off from my mention
This Ika brother from Agbor, Delta state tears their manufactured identity crisis illusion to shreds with a straight face. Everything heβs saying in his native Ika-Igbo dialect, I understand effortlessly because, Igbo bu Ofu.
I told you this is the generation that will end the colonial-imposed identify crisis in Eastern Nigeria. Prophecy fulfilledπͺ
The renaissance is here π₯
@jcokechukwu Funny thing I hear this clearly despite never lived in delta state compared to ezza dialect and I'm from Enugu π.
