Dear Young Nigerians,

One lesson from the 2023 elections, particularly in Lagos, should never be forgotten.

In the period following the presidential election and leading up to the governorship election, we witnessed a troubling shift in public discourse. Conversations that should have focused on competence, governance, development, and the future of our nation were gradually diverted towards tribal sentiments, ethnic divisions, and unnecessary suspicion among citizens.

Many sincere and well-meaning Nigerians participated in these conversations without realising that they were being drawn into narratives carefully designed by others.

Throughout history, whenever politicians find it difficult to compete on ideas, performance, character, or vision, some resort to exploiting the fault lines of ethnicity, religion, and identity. Their calculation is simple: a divided people are easier to manipulate than a united people.

Today, I see similar efforts emerging again, sometimes in more subtle and sophisticated ways. Narratives are planted, amplified, and circulated, often by individuals who genuinely believe they are defending a worthy cause, without recognizing the broader agenda behind such campaigns.

Let me state clearly that Pastor Enoch Adeboye remains one of the foremost fathers of faith in our nation. For decades, he has consistently preached the virtues of peace, prayer, love, reconciliation, and national unity. Even when faced with provocation, his response has always reflected humility, restraint, wisdom, and grace.

At 84 years of age, it would be unfair for young and able-bodied Nigerians to transfer to him responsibilities that properly belong to them. The task of building a better Nigeria rests primarily on the shoulders of the younger generation. It is their duty to lead the conversations, champion the reforms, and drive the positive change our nation urgently requires.

We must be careful not to become instruments in the hands of those who secretly nurture division while publicly preaching unity. In most cases, their target is not the individual being attacked; instead, it is the person who is attacking. Their real objective is to weaken the bonds that hold us together as one people and one nation.

I therefore urge all young Nigerians: do not allow anyone to recruit you into hatred. Do not allow anyone to weaponise your ethnicity, your faith, or your admiration for respected leaders.

Question every narrative. Verify every claim. Follow the facts. Resist manipulation.

The Nigeria of our dreams can only be built by citizens who refuse to be divided, who choose unity over hatred, and who place our collective future above narrow interests.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Newsflash: A randomized controlled trial supports a treatment that millions of patients been using over the last 70+ years!

This could have gone two ways, and speaking on behalf of everyone who cares about MG care, all I can say is... Phew!

Great kickoff for the ESMINT Education Cluster’s new series on neurointerventional basics 🚀 Honoured to have Dodi Boccardi launch it with “Angiography for Real Beginners.” ��� Clear, practical, plus spinal angiography 🧠 Looking forward to what’s next ✨ #ESMINT#Neurointervention

P.N Okeke is one of my biggest inspiration.

It’s sad that he hasn’t been given the highest national honour.

I will donate his complete books set to every secondary school in the South East to keep in their libraries so students can study his work.

He is a genius!

🧠 STROKE CRIPTOGÉNICO Y ESUS: Lo que todo neurólogo debe saber en 2026
1️⃣ El stroke criptogénico representa el 25-40% de todos los ACV isquémicos; el ESUS es su subgrupo embólico sin fuente proximal arterial ni cardioembólica definida.
2️⃣ El metaanálisis ANTARCTICA 2025 confirma que la FA detectada por monitoreo en stroke criptogénico es patogénica en ~47% de los casos (OR ajustado 1.90; IC95% 1.18–3.06).
3️⃣ Los DOACs (rivaroxaban, dabigatran, apixaban) NO demostraron superioridad vs antiplaquetarios en ESUS: NAVIGATE-ESUS, RE-SPECT ESUS, ATTICUS y ARCADIA fueron negativos o fútiles.
4️⃣ El cierre percutáneo de FOP está indicado en ≤60 años con stroke embólico, FOP de riesgo medio-alto por clasificación PASCAL y sin otra etiología identificada.
5️⃣ La placa carotídea no estenosante (<50%) con hemorragia intraplaca ipsilateral permite reclasificar hasta el 21% de ESUS como aterosclerosis de gran vaso — el Vessel Wall Imaging es clave.

A Manelfe type III accessory middle cerebral artery (MCA), red arrow, is a large recurrent branch of the distal A1 segment of the anterior cerebral artery. It supplies the frontal portion of the MCA territory &amp; reflects the anatomic variation of the recurrent artery of Heubner.

Jesus is Risen!

Happy Easter to you all.

[SNIS Info @SNISinfo]

What artery is marked by the red arrow? What pathology is the most common cause for this artery to be enlarged, as in this case?

[Chukwudi Nwogu @DocChukx]

@SNISinfo Vidian artery

@Josernan @Go_Crene @elonmusk Im glad someone gets the point.
Unbelievable how far we have fallen in common sense.

@elonmusk I like the sound of a $99/month SAFE chauffeur. Can't wait for the unsupervised version. Imagine going home after 7 days of rough night shifts.
