A New Nigeria is POssible.
The recent pronouncement by the US government declaring Nigeria a ‘Country of Particular Concern' (CPC) and indicating possible military action should give every well-meaning Nigerian serious concern.
There is no doubt that Nigeria is experiencing an unprecedented level of insecurity with attendant carnage and the most shocking loss of lives and property. According to Amnesty International, over 10,000 people have been killed in Nigeria since May 2023 and as I have repeatedly lamented, the unwarranted and unprovoked killing of Nigerians is most condemnable, and all efforts must be made to bring it to a stop. It is equally important to state that the terrible situation is significantly avoidable with competent leadership and governance.
While the insecurity did not start with the present government, what is most unfortunate is the lack and absence of competence, commitment, prudent use of resources, patriotism and passion on the part of APC APC-led government/leaders to effectively govern, galvanise and lead Nigeria where no one is unwarrantedly oppressed and killed, a Nation where peace, truth and justice reign!
As democracies, Nigeria and the US have long been strategic partners committed to regional peace and security. That relationship should not falter. The present situation calls for constructive diplomatic and any other plausible engagement by both nations aimed at addressing the prevailing and disturbing security concerns. Both countries must work in concert and expeditiously towards that purpose. -PO
Nigeria is a sovereign country, but bandits and terrorists are invading communities and collecting ransoms as a precondition for not attacking them.
A sovereign country that still imports toothpicks.
Buhari ruled over this same sovereign state for eight years and could not build a single hospital that could treat him.
Buhari died in a foreign hospital.
Tinubu has spent over two years governing this sovereign country and is constantly seeking medical care in a foreign country.
You think sovereignty is just territorial?
We don’t even have territorial sovereignty given the way terrorists are easily invading our country from the Sahel region.
Stop the fake patriotism and face the leadership failure that has brought us to where we are today.
Too much attention on frivolities as Poverty deepens is concerning.
It is deeply troubling that Nigeria’s political leadership is rapidly descending into an embarrassing spectacle.
We are at a time when our nation faces the highest levels of actual and multidimensional poverty, soaring infant mortality rates, millions of out-of-school children, one of the most insecure and hunger-stricken nations on earth, grappling with escalating insecurity and countless other challenges.
One would expect our leaders to be focusing and sacrificing solely on providing urgent, transformative solutions to this myriad of problems but not necessarily .
Instead, the national discourse is consumed by trivialities, whether it is allegations of sexual harassment or budget padding in the National Assembly, controversies surrounding State Houses of Assembly speakership, reckless Court judgments threatening to destabilize or deprive the State of funding to provide needed services to the citizens.
What is coming out of the three arms of government, the Executive, the Legislature and the Judiciary is disgusting and uninspiring. The Executive show of negative power as seen in Osun state, the reckless Judiciary pronouncement on Rivers State that is capable of threatening democracy plus the embarrassing scandal from the National Assembly all combine to give a gloomy picture of our democratic journey.
Leaders in these three arms should avoid undue disruptive interference in affairs of sub-national government activities.
Urgent steps should be taken by the leadership of the three arms to stabilize our polity and stem politicians from defecting to parties where they feel it will be easier to rig them into office.
This reckless neglect of serious governance is a grave disservice to the millions of Nigerians who deserve competent, accountable leadership focused on solving real problems.
The blatant display of political rascality, coupled with widespread irregularities, paints a distressing picture of a leadership that has abandoned its core responsibility to the people and is making governance resemble a theatrical performance rather than a serious commitment to public service.
While citizens bear the crushing weight of various hardships due to misgovernance, those in power prioritize personal interests and political gamesmanship over the nation’s well-being.
This mockery of leadership is not only unacceptable, it is a betrayal of the people’s trust.
Nigeria cannot afford to be governed like a reality TV show while millions suffer for so long. It is time for leadership rooted in character, competence, capacity, consistency, compassion, and urgency—leadership that prioritizes education, healthcare, and poverty alleviation.
Anything less threatens the nation’s stability, undermines the present, and betrays the nation’s future.

I consulted HE PO as the leader of the Obidient Movement. As a respecter of rule of law, due process, and order he offered to take Dele Farontimi on the bail conditions.
He thanked our courts and all concerned on this matter.
His concern is that situation be resolved to the best interest of all concerned as well as our legal system.
He extended his sincere appreciation to all concerned.
Yesterday, I extended my congratulations to President Donald Trump @realDonaldTrump on his successful return as the 47th President of the United States.
I am optimistic that his victory will reinforce democracy worldwide and contribute to fostering much-needed global peace.
I also congratulate Vice President @KamalaHarris on her resilience and dedication throughout this political journey.
She contested with courage and strength, yet in the end, the will of the people prevailed.
The peaceful conduct of these U.S. elections, along with the efficient transmission and release of results, should serve as an example and an inspiration for us here in Nigeria to abandon outdated practices such as electoral malpractice, vote-buying, election violence, and network disruptions that continue to hinder our democratic process.
No democratic election is complete unless the people’s will is genuinely reflected through the ballots.
As a nation, let us collectively work to restore the integrity of our electoral system and ensure that our process for choosing leaders is free, fair, and reflective of the people’s true desires.
Congratulations to the United States of America.
A New Nigeria Remains Possible! - PO
