[Mayor Of Calabar @Uno_009]

NDC had every case with INEC settled in the party's favour in October last year.
INEC didn't appeal. Nobody appealed the judgment. Appeal period elapsed with no single party raising up the case again.

May 3, Peter Obi joined NDC.
May 4, Association of Abuja Zaddies(PMP) typed the frivolous case and filed it on May 5.

Just one day after he joined the party, the group went to court.

You see, it's not one serious outstanding case or a lingering issue.
It was just filed a day after one man joined NDC.
If you still don't get it, forget it.

"Look at the kids, they are using Bolt to get to school here in Lagos because everywhere is flooded. At least they should place warning signs so people can identify where the drainage channels are and avoid falling into them."

— Man calls the attention of the Lagos State Government following the heavy flooding.

There is not a single person pushing this narrative who has actually quit their job to go and sell Akara.

Instead, I'm almost certain you're somewhere on WhatsApp, selling a "5k Masterclass on Entrepreneurship by Folarin," actively leeching money from the very 9-to-5ers you mock.

We must vigorously cast out anyone helping this failed government launder a subpar "Akara economy"—just like the Ancient Israelites did to lepers in Biblical times.

No one is claiming that selling Akara and Kuli-kuli is a sin that deserves punishment. However, micro-retail cannot be the national economic plan for any country serious about dragging itself out of the dark ages and into the 21st century.

We need doctors in hospitals to improve the health of Akara and Kuli-kuli sellers. We need engineers building systems that help small businesses scale and thrive. We need our graduates integrated into an economy where their specialised skills are maximised.

It is only in that kind of developed world that the Akara seller can truly feel secure & prosper.

In this bizarre utopia of groundnut oil & flour you are manufacturing, the doctor, the engineer, and the fresh graduate are forced to become the Akara seller's competition, rather than their customers.

I have now had an opportunity to read the 18 page judgment of Isa Dashen, judge of @FederalHigh in Lokoja, in the case concerning the registration & logo of #NDC.

The application before the court asked for 2 orders. The 1st was an order for an extension of time within which the applicants could apply to set aside the judgment of 10 Dec 2025.

The 2nd was an order setting aside the judgment. The 2nd prayer was contingent on the 1st being granted.

In the event, the judge proceeded to consider & quickly grant the 2nd prayer without at all considering the 1st. In other words, the court did not consider the question whether or not to extend the time within which the applicants could apply for the order that he issued with such alactrity & perfunctoriness

I am wondering: without considering that underlying/first application for extension of time, to whom did the court grant the order on the 2nd prayer?

I am struck that the 1st 4 letters of the name of the presiding judge spell "dash". Was the name of the presiding judge a predictor of what transpired?

[PATO PATO🇳🇬🇺🇸 @peculiarpat1]

So, PMP never bothered to fight for its logo between December 2025 and May 2nd, 2026, when NDC got registered. However, immediately, Peter Obi and Kwankwaso joined on May 3rd 2026, they remembered that the NDC logo looked like theirs and ran to court on May 5th, 2026? For 5 solid months, they were sleeping!

Someone is certainly afraid of Peter Obi. In fact, I am beginning to believe that one day, the truth of what transpired in 2023 election will be made known.

My dad has picked my mom up from work almost every day for the past 27 years.

She has a car.

He has a car.

It would be much easier for both of them to drive separately.

I asked him once why he still does it.

He looked genuinely confused by the question.

He said, "Because then we get an extra twenty minutes together."

Long marriages are often built in small pieces.

@markgoldbridge I thought I was the only one that saw such an abysmal performance from both teams. The game was so below average. So so below average. Wow. So poor.

For the first time in my over 20 years of age, I got to see Gbagada flooded

Painful exit for South Africa

[Chijioke 🇳🇬 @datobioma]

The game between SA and CAN is very below standard.

My first time watching both teams so maybe they are just average today.

[Morris Monye @Morris_Monye]

Just look at the flooding going on round Lagos.

My goodness. If a toddler falls down here, it’s finished.

[Gia Macool @GiaMMacool]

Look how society props up serial divorcees as relationship gurus for women today? 🤔

She’s been through 3 divorces each one of them she filed.

Modern women are ran-through, won’t cook, clean, submit or respect…

but still demand to be treated like angels who need Heaven built for them by men?

Demons don’t get Paradise just because they demand it.

[🌵 RC | The Nostalgia Pro🕹️📺 @NostalgiaPro]

Saw the new Masters of the Universe movie with my wife tonight.

Full honesty, the trailer turned me off hard when I initially saw it. It looked terrible and I had zero interest. A friend kept telling me it was actually really good, so I finally went. He was right.

I had the He-Man action figures growing up, and this took me right back to being a kid.

Jared Leto as Skeletor is a 10 out of 10. Absolutely fantastic.

The Dolph Lundgren cameo was amazing. And I loved that they poked fun at corporate America and HR departments, about as fake and cringe as it gets.

The three post credit scenes were awesome and the world they're setting up has me genuinely excited for more He-Man movies.

It's not perfect. Some slow spots, some filler, a little forced humor. But none of that mattered.

This movie is outstanding and it's a real shame it bombed, because it took me right back to my early childhood. So good.

Why I feel so heartbroken for rural communities across Nigeria is that if you’ve been there, these are just people who are the nicest, often naive to a fault, just want to do their business, live their lives and enjoy communal living. This is a terrible situation we ve found ourselves.

BREAKING: The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission has raised concerns over what it described as possible consumer exploitation in Nigeria’s downstream petroleum sector following the failure of fuel prices to decline significantly despite a sharp drop in global crude oil prices.

In 200level, I tried to shake hands with a guy in my class(I didn't know you can't shake hands with members of the opposite sex as a Muslim) and he said it was haram to shake my hand. I asked why and he got visibly angry so I dropped it.
That same afternoon, we were supposed to go to the main campus for histology practical and we were both late so we somehow got round to taking a bike together and he sat behind me.
When we got to the laboratory, I asked him why it was haram to shake my hand but it wasn't haram to sit behind me on a bike especially as the bike thingy exposed us to more touching than a handshake.
He didn't answer me. He actually hasn't answered me till today and it's been four years.
