El Rufai has been a guest of the @icpcnigeria for over 100 days and still counting. Gbajabiamila had the luxury of an alleged "grilling" by @icpcnigeria and went back to the comfort of his duty post in the villa, nice optics performance. This rule of law isn't blind after all.

On behalf of the Kano People, I hereby refute the falsehoods propagated by our current Vice President, Kashim Shettima, that Lagos raise and made Dangote and BUA the richest black men in the World.

~Facts are Stubborn.

- Dangote and BUA have amassed their wealth and businesses through inheritance from their parents and grandparents. Which of the residents of Lagos has ever provided a loan to Dangote or sold goods to him that surpasses the transactions of Kano traders?

- Dangote and BUA have expanded their businesses and accumulated wealth primarily from the Northern region, particularly the Northwest. The quantities of Sugar, Cement, Pasta, and Flour that have been sold in the North far exceed what the entire Southern region consumes, not just Lagos alone.

- The financial contributions of Dangote and BUA to the people of Lagos are over a million times greater than the benefits they have derived from Lagos, a privilege that the people of Kano have never experienced.

Update: In the name of Allah SWT, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful. As stated yesterday, the ad hoc I setup, which was saddled with the responsibility of handing out insurance cards to some financially vulnerable citizens (People With Special Abilities or PWDs, elders and women), in Kaduna North Federal Constituency have finished their work. Yesterday, I informed the general public that the list of the beneficiaries will be posted in line with our transparency policy. The is Phase IV of this initiative and it was in partnership with the management of Kaduna State Contributory Health Management Authority Agency, (KACHMA). The following individuals have full annual coverage in selection health centres in Kaduna North. We are officially over 100 and the premature politicking will not deter us from add more beneficiaries in the coming months.

I’m receiving a number of press inquiries to defend myself against the “antisemite” smear. I’m not doing any of those.

Anyone who defends a state or its ideology that has enabled its soldiers to gleefully snipe dead thousands of Palestinian children or gang rape Palestinian prisoners to death ALL ON CAMERA should be on trial, not me or anyone who dares speak out. Those who defend this genocide and occupation are worse than the apologists of any monstrous regime or actor in history because these crimes have been filmed for the world to see, and are well documented by every human rights organization in the world. Call me what you want. My family and people’s blood is on your hands, and your tongues will one day testify against you.

Unfortunately leaving NATO won’t be to avoid foreign entanglements, we’ll be leaving NATO so we can side with Israel when Turkey & Israel eventually clash in Syria.

This is after we helped topple the secular Syrian gov & installed a former AQ/ISIS leader as president.

Time to stop playing arsonist & fireman in the Middle East, it’s just not worth it.

We do not have a problem of 'Shariah' takeover in America. What we do have is the very real problem of Christian Zionism.

It is unacceptable for a public figure in such a prominent position to base American foreign policy on theological beliefs (beliefs that, it should be pointed out, are actually misguided and incorrect even from his own paradigm).

People need to understand that the blatant Islamophobia and the anti-Shariah rhetoric currently taking place in Congress and across social media is a standard misdirection from the actual and real issue of religious fanaticism of another type.

[Jaafar Jaafar @JaafarSJaafar]

Kwankwaso’s ONLY crime against the Republicans is his patriotic condemnation of Trump’s threats to attack his country. If you are looking for the opposite of a religious extremist, Kwankwaso is one.

Kwankwaso lost election in 2003 because of his reluctance to implement Sharia in Kano. His implementation was seen as hapharzard by the fanatics, who promoted Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau’s candidacy.

When Shekarau defeated Kwankwaso, he re-implemented Sharia in Kano, recruited thousands of Hisbah personnel and re-kitted them towards full implementation of Shariah.

If implementation of Sharia in Nigeria were a crime, a former governor of Zamfara, Ahmed Sani Yarima, should not only appear in the list, but top the list.

We should arm protestors in another country but if you show up armed in ours, the govt will shoot you and call you a terrorist.

This isn’t the first time @channelstv has treated the North this way. But we’re not powerless. Northern governors and the private sector should respond firmly: cancel retainerships, stop inviting them for live coverage, withdraw adverts, and boycott them completely. Ta ko ina!

NIGERIA UPDATE - EVERY NIGERIAN SHOULD READ THIS INSIGHTFUL PIECE:

Think Naija: The Reform Notebook.

THE NARRATIVE BEFORE THE INTERVENTION: HOW WASHINGTON IS SHAPING NIGERIA’S STORY. - November 21, 2025 - Part 1

Foreign intervention never begins with airplanes, sanctions or soldiers. It begins with stories. It begins with how a country is described, framed, understood and judged by powerful nations.

Iraq did not begin with missiles. It began with a narrative about weapons of mass destruction. Libya did not begin with bombs. It began with a narrative about protecting civilians. Syria did not begin with airstrikes. It began with a narrative about humanitarian responsibility.

The same pattern is now forming around Nigeria, and the speed is alarming.

The life sentence delivered to Nnamdi Kanu on November 20, 2025 is a perfect example. A Nigerian court, after years of legal proceedings, found him guilty on seven terrorism related charges, including directing violence, issuing sit at home orders, caused hundreds of deaths, and guiding bomb making. The court described him as an international terrorist and chose life imprisonment instead of the death penalty.

Within hours, a US lawmaker declared that the conviction was evidence of religious persecution.

A terrorism judgment became a faith narrative in a single step. This did not happen randomly, it is structural and it is how congressional narratives are built.

A legal event happens. American lawmakers interpret it through a moral lens that suits domestic politics. The narrative becomes a talking point. Talking points become resolutions. Resolutions become sanctions or conditions. And at the end of that chain lies the justification for foreign intervention.

This is the architecture we are watching being built around Nigeria.

What makes the situation even more concerning is that this narrative did not start yesterday. It has been shaped for years, intentionally and deliberately, through structured lobbying.

Foreign Agents Registration Act filings in Washington show that IPOB and its affiliates hired American lobbying firms to promote a narrative of Christian persecution in Nigeria. The message was clear: Nigeria is killing Christians, the Nigerian state is complicit, and the South East faces genocide. These claims were crafted to appeal to the American evangelical and conservative network that sees global Christian victimhood as a core political issue.

This lobbying created a permanent narrative frame. Even after contracts ended, the impression remained inside congressional offices, in briefing notes, in staff memory and in committee debates. Lobbying does not disappear when the cheque stops. It leaves a shadow.

This is why the same Congress that invokes Christian persecution rarely mentions certain facts.

It ignores that Boko Haram has killed more Muslims than Christians. It ignores that banditry in the North West is driven by economic motives, not religion. It ignores that many Christian communities in the Middle Belt are attacked, but Muslim communities across the North and Middle Belt also suffer the same fate in even larger numbers. It ignores that IPOB and ESN splinter groups killed over 700 Christians in the South East and enforced violent sit at home campaigns. It ignores that Finland, a Western nation, convicted a key Biafran agitator for terrorism in September 2025. It ignores that the Nigerian court conviction of Kanu was based on evidence, not on faith.

And it ignores the deaths of Muslims who are also victims of the same terror networks. Only days before some US lawmakers repeated the Christian genocide narrative, terrorists abducted and murdered the Ameer of the Muslim Students Society of Nigeria in Kebbi State, Alqasim Uthman Ibrahim. He was kidnapped and killed in captivity, without media attention, international outrage or congressional concern.

Can you tell us how he died, where, and why?

[Ross Greer @Ross_Greer]

You:
- Hosted the head of the Israeli air force last week
- Are currently training Israeli troops in the UK
- Said Israel has the right to cut off water in Gaza (a war crime)
- Haven't stopped arms sales
- Haven't even recognised Palestine as a state

You have enabled a genocide.
