These newly surfaced clips of my interactions with Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola are yet another reminder that my commitment to the struggle for justice, democracy, and the liberation of Nigeria did not begin today. Long before many of those now occupying positions of power found their voices, I was already on the frontlines of the June 12 struggle, standing with Nigerians against military dictatorship and demanding that the people’s mandate be respected.
The irony is striking: many of the opportunists, enablers, and pretenders who either opposed, ignored, or later hijacked that democratic struggle are now in positions of authority and seek to suppress those who remained faithful to its ideals. They may wield state power today, but history has shown repeatedly that repression cannot extinguish a just cause.
These clips are not merely historical artifacts; they are evidence of consistency. They show a young activist standing with the democratic movement when it was dangerous to do so, and they connect directly to the same principles that continue to guide the struggle today.
Those who now deploy the machinery of the state against dissent should remember that every generation produces its oppressors and its resisters. The oppressors enjoy temporary power; the resisters ultimately inherit history.
They will be defeated. The cause of justice endures. The struggle continues. #TakeItBack #Sowore2027 #SoworeForPresident
If you want to know what Tinubu’s government thinks about the widespread poverty in the country, go and watch that interview.
They literally don’t even believe that people are suffering.
Buhari called Nigerians lazy.
So I’m not even surprised.
It’s the APC’s modus operandi.
If you’re a Nigerian, always remind yourself that you’re on your own.

Komai wahalar aiki, a gun matashi mai kokari da himma, mai SAUKI ne.
Komai saukin aiki, a gun matashi malalaci mara himma, mai WAHALA ne.
Himma da kokari suna tafiya kafaɗa da kafaɗa da Nasara!

Allāhumma innī ʿabduka, ibnu ʿabdika, ibnu amatika… as’aluka bikulli ismin huwa laka… an tajʿala al-Qur’āna rabīʿa qalbī, wa nūra ṣadrī, wa jalā’a ḥuznī, wa dhahāba hammī.

A du’a to memorize, especially for the days when your heart feels heavy.
The prophet ﷺ said;
