I ENDORSE THIS … Long overdue.

According to his son, Thomas Aguiyi-Ironsi, in a statement signed and released by him today (Sunday), the event will be held at the Aguiyi-Ironsi Tomb Site in Umuahia and will feature a wreath-laying ceremony.

A Nigerian military officer who served as the country’s first Military Head of State, Ironsi assumed office during the ensuing chaos following the January 15, 1966 military coup.
He was assassinated by a group of military officers from the Northern Region led by Murtala Muhammed.
BREAKING!!! PROF CHIDI FINISHED TINUBU HERE...The only network Tinubu has in Nigeria outside Yorubaland is only that of politics. Tinubu didn't go to school nor work in any verifiable organisation that one can count on. Retweet massively till it gets to the Jagabandits pls.
We captured this beautiful moment of Chimdiebube Onwubiko arriving in Enugu yesterday to a hero's welcome.
He won a gold medal at the International STEM Olympiad Grand Finale in Rome.
I love seeing education reclaim its rightful place in our society.
This is just the beginning of something great.
DEAR OPPOSITION — UNIFY UNDER PETER OBI
This is for the Labour Party stalwart. The PDP loyalist who has not crossed
over. The NNPP supporter. The ADC newcomer. The independent who cannot find a home.
I am not here to tell you your party failed. I am here to tell you the arithmetic.
Tinubu was declared winner 2023 with 36 percent of the vote. The opposition together took the rest.
The math has never been the problem. The math has always favoured us. The problem is that we ran three campaigns where we needed to run one — and the man who was said to came first in that split is the
man currently mortgaging your children's future.
2027 will not be won by the party with the loudest supporters. It will be won by the side
that learns to assemble itself.
Peter Obi is not the candidate of one camp. He is the candidate with the strongest record on the ballot, the broadest appeal across the regions, and the only campaign in 2023 that took Lagos from the man who claims to own it.
Unifying under him is not surrender. It is strategy. And unifying does not mean dissolving your party, your platform, or your principles. Your senator can still be your senator. Your governor can still be your governor. What we are asking is one
shared answer at the top of the ballot — and a shared commitment to govern together when we
win.
If you are a party operative, an organiser, a fundraiser, a strategist sitting inside
one of the opposition parties — we have a coordination channel for you. Not to replace what you are doing. To connect it.
The other side is unified. They are unified by stolen public money, but they are unified. We have to be unified by something stronger.
Visit https://t.co/VWJfhLpJZZ. Bring your party. Bring your network. Let us assemble.
Arise, O Compatriots.
Peter Obi saved my life and I will campaign and vote for him — Ibrahim Muhammad from Katsina State explained how Peter Obi as the then sitting governor of Anambra state saved his life. He explained the exceptional leadership qualities of Peter Obi and encouraged all Nigerians to support him.
There is a false tribal narrative being circulated claiming that we dropped a Yoruba child to replace him with an Igbo child for the International STEM Olympiad in Rome.
That claim is completely false.
This is the full live stream of the 2026 South East Maths Olympiad Grand Finale, where the winners emerged. Our selection process was conducted publicly because we believe transparency is the best way to protect integrity.
We deliberately stream our competitions live so everyone can see how winners are determined. Our goal is simple: ensure that the right children win based on merit, not ethnicity, religion, connections or influence.
We are building a generation that believes hard work is rewarded. Merit is not negotiable.

Nigeria's children deserve better than tribal propaganda. They deserve fairness.
Educare received this special recognition from the International STEM Olympiad, Rome.
We will continue to build the right technology that powers education and also support our children to shine on global stages.
More good news.
Don Anele Munachimso also won gold in Science.
He is the best in world science.
Remember, he is the best in IGCSE Chemistry in Nigeria.
The investment is worth it.
Tinubu is Currently Destroying The South West, While His Victims Focus On Bigotry…
Charity, they say, begins at home, but that is not the case for Tinubu who is currently on a mission destroying the South West, and many are unknowingly doing Bigotry for him.
From Osun to Oyo, to Ekiti, down to Ondo, he has imported insecurity into the region, and is currently fighting two of the Governors.
It is 15 months now, and he is still yet to release 202 billion Naira Osun State LG funds despite the Supreme Court ruling; he is yet to visit Oyo State or even reach out since the kidn@pping of those innocent students.
All the man cares about is himself and his selfish agenda to grab power; he hates Nigerians equally!
Nigeria is wasting billions of $$$ on insecurity because of people like Ali Modu Sheriff from Borno. He has never condemned the activities of the Boko Haram. If Nigeria was working, Ali Sheriff would have been jailed a long time ago.
