Tinubu frees Maryam Sanda, a woman convicted in 2020 for the murder of her husband.
A convicted murderer gets clemency because of connection.
Yet Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, who has never been convicted of any crime, continues to rot in detention while awaiting a sham trial.
This is hypocrisy. #FreeNnamdiKanuNow
BREAKING NEWS: Ghana Government has imposed a statutory GH¢10,000 daily fine on Multichoice Ghana (DSTV), over their failure to provide critical information regarding their pricing in accordance with the Electronic Communications Act.
While Nigerians are urged to endure economic hardship "like labor pains," some governors are splurging billions on new government houses, @TheAfricaReport reveals » https://t.co/9qehFrvkVE
@BudgITng warns that "instead of funding schools, clinics, or agriculture, leaders prioritize buildings they barely use."
@cislacnigeria adds: "There is more money, little accountability, and no priority."
Such alleged lack of fiscal responsibility fuels inequality and erodes public trust.

Again everything Peter Obi had said is what the United States is re-echoing to the world.
When Peter Obi spoke about funding schools, clinics, and agriculture, through investing in education, health and pulling people out of poverty and also focusing on production, these leaders hurled insults at him, sent their media thugs to insult him.
Now the United States Mission has stated EXACTLY, word for word, the same points Peter Obi had echoed, I wonder if the Nigeria government will call the United States Mission liars or send people to hurl insults at them too 🙂.
If you refuse the advice from inside your house, outsiders will flog it to you.
Over and over, Peter Obi has proven that all he says are facts and truth.
Leadership Failure: Nigeria’s Greatest Burden
I have consistently maintained that leadership failure lies at the heart of Nigeria’s problems. Until we confront it head-on, the country cannot move in the right direction. The cumulative effect of poor leadership remains our greatest obstacle to development. This calls for urgent disruption of the current retrogressive system and the enthronement of leaders with competence, character, capacity, and compassion.
Our declining governance has drawn global attention, as shown in the recent statement by the U.S. Diplomatic Mission in Nigeria, echoed in The Africa Report (https://t.co/h1LOxXx1tk) - a clear confirmation of what many of us have long said. Once again, let me be clear: you cannot ask the people to keep fasting while you feast every day. As Chinua Achebe rightly said, “The trouble with Nigeria is simply and squarely a failure of leadership.”
I speak out to help build a new Nigeria, free of criminality and corruption. But instead of addressing the message, those who have hijacked our country deploy media thugs to insult and distract. Now that the American government has made similar observations, perhaps they too will become targets.
To all well-meaning Nigerians: this must stop. We must dismantle the system of criminality. We have voted based on tribe and religion for too long - it is time to vote for competence. Let us move from waste, looting, and reckless borrowing to production. Let us build a Nigeria that works.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
@SaharaReporters So, Nigerians will fold their hands, locked their minds and allow this growing venom of intimidation and wide spread of fears to suffocate the people?
This regime and its lieutenants are boldly and outrageously confiscating the core values of democracy and, we’re just watching?
and hardship in the country, or a deliberate choice to disregard it. At this point, I strongly advise the President to distance himself from sycophants and surround himself with individuals who will present the unvarnished truth.
