Now you would have to retract those statements because of course sensible Nigerians across various social media platforms took it upon themselves to call a spade a spade.
@fkeyamo kindly ensure sir that you get to the bottom of this matter. I have seen your statement today, a step in the right direction, at least itâs an indication that you listen. Beyond it, Ibom air and that air hostess, the official that published that video must all be made to face the consequences.

This psychopath of an air hostess has no business being an air hostess for Ibom or any other airline for that matter. Such an unprofessional human. @ibomairlines donât you train ur cabin crew members on how to deescalate potential explosive situations?
Now to the various government agencies that issued statement and the associations that handed bans in less than 24hrs after the incident took place, even when itâs not constitutionally within there purview to do that, I am utterly disappointed. Statements and decisions were made without hearing the other side of the story.
From testimonies of people whoâve flown @ibomairlines and have had an encounter with is pretentious manipulative psychopath of an air hostess, it is very clear she is notorious for talking down, disrespecting and triggering passengers.
From where the video started, comfortâs wig had already been removed, u stood in her way and prevented her from disembarking from the plane and allegedly pushed her severally so others could disembark.
When she reacted and the cameras came on, u started acting the victim. You tore her clothes to expose her breasts when two male airport officials were already bundling her out of the same plane u had prevented her from coming down from.
@ibomairlines this is totally unacceptable.
The sad situation of being a young Nigerian.
A young girl is hired at this pastry shop as an Assistant Baker.
After assisting in baking, sheâs over the counter to sell the productsâSales Person.
As soon as she arrives at the shop first thing in the morning, she will clean the shopâCleaner.
She will scout for customers âMarketer.
She will take care of complaints from customers âCustomer Care Rep.
She will run errands for madam âPersonal Assistant.
Her madam might even have a new born that she will baby sit from time to time âNanny.
So youâve got a Baker, Sales Person, Marketer, PA, CSR, Cleaner, Nanny in one job.
Salary- 30k. This 30k will be used to pay OPay after borrowing from OPay to PalmPay within the month because her mother called and needed drugs.
She would contemplate leaving the job everyday but what other options does she have?
One day one brother that works with an NGO where heâs seeing free money will walk in and say âfine, girl howâ are after buying ice cream. He will collect number from fine girl.
Fine girl and brother will link up later on. Brother will TF her 30k. The same 30k she receives in a month. Fine girl will pay her motherâs monthly bills without borrowing from OPay.
Fine girl don see new opportunity o. Madam will notice that fine girl is now doing like NEPA âcome to work today and skip tomorrow. She will eventually stop kpatakpata.
Madam will hire another person that will still end up like fine girl.
Meanwhile, fine girl is a full time OS somewhere now and will be judged by twitter people.
Some people that god will punish will argue that she should have âinnovated and improvedââthese are people who do not know that owning a laptop is luxury in Nigeria.
Meanwhile, working as an Assistant Baker should have been enough for anyone to afford a standard living if it wasnât for poor economy. It happens in most places in the world.
But here in Nigeria, we like to blame everything but the source of our problems.
Nigeria is indeed a fascinating place , not for its wonders, but for the sheer unpredictability that defines daily life. The level of anyhowness here is not just baffling, itâs deeply unsettling.
Nothing is ever truly guaranteed. You could wake up one morning and find that everything youâve worked and sacrificed for has been wiped out, undone by a single government policy, often crafted without foresight or empathy.
This is why the leadership selection process in Nigeria isnât just critical, itâs existential. Every choice we make at the ballot box has a ripple effect on every facet of our lives. To sit on the fence or choose silence in the face of this reality is not neutrality, itâs complicity.
You can âmind your businessâ all you want, but in Nigeria, itâs only a matter of time before the chaos and âanyhownessâ find its way to your doorstep. Everyone becomes a victim eventually.
For me, once I began paying attention to Nigerian politics, I have never truly remained the same. You simply canât unsee the dysfunction, the injustice, the reckless abuse of power and the sheer disregard for the people whose trust has been entrusted in their care. Once your eyes are open, itâs impossible to function like everything is okay, because it isnât.
Since declaring his intention to run for the highest office in the land, Mr. Peter Obi as he would like to be simply called, has been subjected to a relentless torrent of ridicule, smear campaigns, and calculated persecution. His greatest âoffenseâ? Daring to dream and to act as though a better Nigeria is POssible.
Perhaps, in a political climate tainted by decades of corruption and mediocrity, his untainted record, unwavering integrity, and refusal to play by the crooked rules of the establishment have made him too clean and too principled for comfort. And so, they attack him, loathing him with every fiber of their being.
Yet, despite the vitriol hurled his way, Peter Obi has remained unshaken, steadfast like the Okwute (the Rock) that he is. He continues to challenge the status quo, holding the government to account with uncommon courage, calmness, and clarity. While others seek power for personal gain, Obi embodies leadership as service, sacrifice, and moral responsibility.
To the casual observer, the natural question arises: Why endure so much? Why not retreat into a life of peace, comfort, and privilege, one his wealth and success have well earned him?
But for Obi, this is no longer just about politics. Whether or not he ever ascends to the presidency, he will remain just fine, financially secure, globally respected, and personally fulfilled. Yet, he carries something far greater than himself: the hopes and dreams of millions of Nigerians yearning for a nation that works.
At this point, the mission has outgrown this man. It is no longer about ambition, but about purpose. It is about responsibility to the people who believe in him, to the youths who dare to hope, and to the future he refuses to abandon.
As Dele Farotimi aptly put it, Peter Obi has become âthe TOTEM of our struggle for a new Nigeria.â
So, as we celebrate him, we do more than mark a birthday. We honor a man who has refused to bow, who has refused to break, a symbol of integrity, resilience, and the Nigeria we know is POssible.
Happy belated Birthday Okwute Ndigbo ji biliđ
Your courage lights the path ahead.
-Edo State Governorâs Threat to Peter Obi
-Obiâs Birthday Special
-Buhariâs rotten Legacy
Plus all thatâs happened recently in Nigeriaâs socio-political landscape.

First it was Benueâs Gov Hyacinth Alia, now itâs Monday Okpebolo in Edo openly saying Peter Obi must âseek clearanceâ before entering Edo State.
What does this even mean?
Meanwhile, the president, who should be championing national unity, is dead silent.
This is a dangerous precedent. Itâs Obi today, it could be your fave tomorrow. Every well-meaning Nigerian must condemn this!

There is a common saying âDo not speak ill of the dead.â While that remains a moral and cultural caution, it does not erase the realities of the lives affected by the actions and inactions of the departed.
With the passing of President Muhammadu Buhari, many will remember him for different reasons. For some, he was a patriot who returned to power with promises of change. But for many others, his leadership symbolizes a period marked by economic hardship, deepening insecurity, policy missteps, and widespread disillusionment.
Death may silence a man, but it does not silence the consequences of his decisions and actions. The lives that spiraled into poverty, the end sars protest, the dreams that were deferred, and the citizens who bore the brunt of his governance,these remain part of his legacy.
We can extend respect in death, yet history must be told in full. To remember Buhari is to reckon with both the hopes he carried and the pains he left behind.
#RIPBuhari
As you journey to the great beyond, President Buhari, history may forget many things⊠but not October 20th, 2020. That date is etched in our memoryâŠand in blood.
Some things leave scars, not footprints.
20.10.20, a day carved into the soul of a generation.
