SOWORE BEING SENT TO PRISON: A DANGEROUS REGRESSION FOR OUR DEMOCRACY
I have received, with deep concern, the news of the court’s remand of citizen activist Omoyele Sowore in Kuje Prison.
While the judiciary remains the ultimate arbiter of justice, we must consistently guard against any trend that gives the appearance of state institutions being weaponised to systematically stifle dissent, muzzle the press, or shrink the legitimate space for civic engagement in Nigeria.
A thriving democracy does not survive on the silencing of opposing voices; rather, it is anchored on the robust protection of fundamental human rights, most notably the freedoms of expression and peaceful assembly, as enshrined in our Constitution. Moreover, our society is already strained by insecurity and biting economic hardship; therefore, deliberate steps should be taken, even by the courts, to avoid inflaming the situation.
When we begin to treat citizen critics, activists, and journalists as threats to state survival rather than as partners in building accountability, we signal a dangerous slide toward authoritarianism. Our current challenges, ranging from economic strain to internal security vulnerabilities, require inclusive dialogue and cohesive nation-building, not the incarceration of those who demand a better society.
I urge the relevant authorities to ensure that the rule of law is strictly adhered to, that Mr. Sowore’s constitutional rights are fully protected, and that our security and judicial institutions are used solely for the impartial administration of justice. We cannot build a New Nigeria if we continue to undermine the very democratic structures meant to protect us all. -PO
Over 10 top military officers were killed under Tinubu. We watch them slaughtered on live videos.
Meanwhile Tinubu’s Air Fleet received ₦20.3 billion, while our Army’s allocation for operational equipment, which was supposed to receive ₦20.6 billion, received only ₦1.4 billion barely 8% of what it should be.
He’s busy campaigning while school children have spent over 30 days in captivity.

Rufai Oseni strongly criticized Bayo Onanuga and the Presidency on Arise News this morning.
Was the APC also being childish when it called for Goodluck Jonathan’s resignation? Was it childish when it pushed for a parallel government during Jonathan’s administration?
The message is clear @officialABAT
You have failed beyond comprehension
It’s either you support this moving train if you truly want a better Nigeria, or you get THA HELL OUT OF OUR WAY.
Ayodeji Olamide Ajayi, of Nigeria, entered the United States in 2007 on a student visa and eventually left school, but failed to leave the country.
Instead, he stayed in the U.S. and got to work on a lengthy rap sheet that includes convictions such as:
👉Domestic violence
👉Trespassing
👉Intimidation
👉Obstruction
His criminal history also includes these egregious charges:
👉Kidnapping
👉Rape
👉Family neglect
Thanks to @POTUS’ commitment to getting criminal illegal aliens out of this country, Ajayi will be leaving the United States shortly.
@ICEgov He needs to go to prison for a long time. Please, do not send him back to Nigeria . He might become a governor, senator or president. The one you sent back for drug related forfeiture is currently the president of his country. The country is in a mess.
I arrived in Sokoto today as part of our ongoing consultative engagements, for a strategic meeting with the leadership of the NDC in the state.
The visit is aimed at strengthening and expanding the party’s structure across Sokoto State, while also kick-starting preparations for the success of the Obi-Kwankwaso ticket and all NDC candidates in the upcoming elections.
The meeting was well attended by state party executives, and dedicated members, who reaffirmed their unwavering commitment to the growth and victory of the party. - RMK
.@TemsBaby and I met with some aspiring artists at the Obama Presidential Center’s new Media Suite! Barack and I hope this Media Suite will become a place where young people can find their voice, learn about music, and make beautiful art.
In 2014, Peter Obi gave 160 First Class students N1 million each to reward them for their performance.
8 years later, one of the students who is currently studying for his PhD in the United States of America met Obi in the Vatican City and was full of praises❤️
That Peter Obi's tweet calling on Tinubu to resign due to his monumental failures in governance, just like the British prime minister, is causing a serious meltdown in Aso Rock.
Honestly I love this version of Peter Obi. My man is firing from all cylinders.
