Tinubu is not a fact of life.
He's not inevitable.
He has one vote. The same as the rest of us.
He can but votes sure.
But there's not enough cash to buy all of our votes.
Those of us who know better, must do better.
Tinubu is not inevitable. That's a psychological battle we cannot afford to lose.
Imagine a Nigeria where we have men of this calibre on the Presidential ballot.
Donald Duke, Alex Otti, Peter Obi, Seyi Makinde.
Imagine being able to choose from this exotic selection.
Not fucking Atiku and a drug dealer.

Why Nigeria’s ‘Elites’ No Longer Need Nigerians
In this clip, Nigerian social commentator Sonma Oboke explores the concept of 'Transnational Capital' in the context of Africa's pseudo-elite class, who exhibit behaviours that contradict what would appear to be their own national interest, because their entire economic base exists outside of Africa in western jurisdictions and neutral tax havens.
According to her, this phenomenon is a manifestation of neocolonialism, which Kwame Nkrumah warned about over 60 years ago - African national elites who have no sense of affiliation or loyalty to their countries because their money an their survival are not tied to those countries.
Do you agree with her assessment? Do you see evidence of Transnational Capital in your African country? Let us know in the comments.

“I said I will not allow Obaseki produce a successor even though the candidate was a very good candidate; very good candidate who was the chairman of a bank. Ha came to see me more than three times but I told him “listen, I know you are a good candidate, but for this election I am sorry; because this election is between us and the man who is bringing you, called Obaseki. Returning you would be like bringing him back so I am sorry, you have to fail”.
And he failed.”

Jarrett Tenebe defends AK-47 fire comment, says he'll spit on Atiku and bite Peter Obi's ear
Edo APC chairman Jarrett Tenebe has defended his AK-47 fire comment — claiming during an interview that it was like Christians wishing enemies "Holy Ghost fire." He also said he would spit in Atiku's face and bite Peter Obi's ear if he comes near him.
With elections just months away, many are calling this reckless rhetoric that the APC must condemn.

I need you to understand how grossly wicked a person is, if they have experienced life abroad in any capacity (lived abroad, are living abroad or have visited abroad) and still support a terrible government back home.
They are the very spawn of Satan. You can't be enjoying good governance and dont want same for others.
Nigeria: Borno’s Forgotten Children
Today, it is 144 days since 42 school children of Askira Uba LGA Borno state were abducted by gunmen. Since their abduction on 15 May 2026, more people have been abducted across the north.
No child should go through what children are going through now in Nigeria. Education should not be a matter of life and death for anyone. Nigeria is failing children once again in a horrifying manner.
The future of thousands of school children in Northern Nigeria remains bleak as hundreds of schools in some states have been closed indefinitely due to rising insecurity. Many children abandoned education due to the psychological trauma of witnessing violent attacks or living in captivity.
Government of Nigeria must do more to safely and securely rescue all school children in captivity. Suspected perpetrators must be held to account.
Our stand is still resolute.
Peter Obi is coming.
In our lifetime, we will feel what it is like to be governed by an actual human being that's not a thief.
Yes, Obi is our saviour.
Yes, Obi is a saint.
Saint Obi for 2027 ~ Nigeria will be OK. ✌🏾
*BREAKING*
*JARRETT TENEBE'S APC CARRIES OUT ITS THREAT TO SHOOT ADC MEMBERS IN IGUEBEN LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA*
The Igueben Local Government Chairman has just led a team of gun totetting assailants to attack the entourage of Kenneth Imasuangbon and the Edo Central ADC Senatorial candidate, Hon Herbeta Okonofua. The hoodlum shot fatally at a young man, Jerry Oliha, from ADC ward 6, at the premises of the Enogie of Igueben. The young man has been rushed to the Irrua Specialist Hospital , where doctors are battling to save his life. This shooting is the third time the entourage was shot at today. First at ward 4, and then, at ward 5, of the Local Government Area.
Reports confirm that this is the climax of the series of violent attacks against ADC members and infrastructure that the APC has recently vowed Jarrett Tenebe's threat to unleash AK 47 on Edo people was after all premeditated. Attacks have been reported at Etsako East, Owan West and Owan East, before this one in Irrua. In each of the cases, they have been coordinated by the Local Government Chairmen of those places on the strength of Jarrett Tenebe.
Bullets have been recovered at the scene of the attack and handed over to the police and the Enogie. Canopies, chairs, musical instruments worth millions of naira were all destroyed at the palace premises.
ADC will come out with a comprehensive report on this unfortunate policy of violence of the APC shortly. The DPO of the Igueben Local Government Area has been informed and involved in the unfortunate incident.

Building a Better Nigeria Through Service.
Yesterday in Lagos, I attended a dinner organised for Lagos NDC candidates and hosted by the Lagos Obidient Movement.
I used the occasion to remind the candidates that seeking public office is not about titles, positions, or the privileges associated with them. It is about accepting the responsibility to serve and committing ourselves to building a better Nigeria.
Having witnessed the suffering and hardship that our people continue to endure, we must remain conscious of the tremendous responsibility placed in our hands. Nigerians deserve leaders who are accessible, actively engaged, accountable, and willing to lead by example.
Our politics must establish a standard for others to follow. It must therefore be founded on competence, character, capacity, compassion, and a genuine commitment to the common good.
A better Nigeria is within reach, but achieving it requires leaders who are prepared to lead by example and remain accessible.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
To the average Arab man, a chicken is more important than a black African — my conversation with @SaharaReporters on the ills of irregular migration to Europe through the Sahara Desert and the Mediterranean Sea.
Obasanjo is not an Hausa or Igbo man. There was no tribal fight those eight years. In fact, till tomorrow, we are all in awe of baba.
If you can’t see this APC government is the problem, you’re a fool. If you still think a government working so hard to fvck up your life is a tribal government, you’re even more foolish.
Are the policies not affecting your everyday life like it is affecting others? You’ll never be alright.

2027: Tinubu will not rig this election because there may not be a Nigeria if he rigs this election. Why? Because the people are tired; they are hungry... Nobody hates Tinubu. I love Tinubu; he knows.
