Dear @mehdirhasan

This lying double-mouthed dishonest aide called Daniel Bwala that you publicly exposed his hypocrisy to the world a few months ago, now claims Al Jazeera “apologised” to him over your interview with him.

Please is this claim true?
And if true, what exactly did Al Jazeera apologise to him for?

Dear Nigerians,
Pls retweet until @mehdirhasan sees this and publicly responds to clear the air.

I took time to listen to Dr Nnaemeka Obiareri again and I admonish you to do the same if you are from South East Nigeria. Anyone who can tag Governor Soludo should please do, so that he will listen to it too, because the footage directly addresses him. Dr. Obiareri is a retired investment banker with the now defunct BankPHB Plc.

Happy listening.

This little boy did a taxi interview with Pep Guardiola 10 years ago when he became coach of Manchester City.

Few days ago, Pep resigned as coach of Manchester City after a phenomenal time in charge of the club.

He went to see the same little boy and surprised him. This video will put a smile on your face.

What a really beautiful clip.

The Fall of DSTV

DSTV raised its subscription prices three times in two years.

Then it lost 1.4 million Nigerian subscribers in those same two years.

Then it slashed its decoder price by 50% to beg those subscribers to come back.

Some people will call it business strategy but this is a company eating itself alive and wondering why it is hungry.

The numbers are brutal.

MultiChoice lost 2.8 million active subscribers across Africa over two financial years. 1.2 million in 2025 alone. An 8% year on year decline. 

Nigeria accounted for 77% of subscriber losses across all of MultiChoice’s African operations outside South Africa. The Rest of Africa base collapsed from 9.3 million in 2023 to 7.5 million in 2025. 

Nigeria did not just leave DSTV, they buried it and the content is leaving with the subscribers.

BET Africa and MTV Base shut down January 2026. CBS Reality and CBS Justice went December 2025. CNN International, Discovery Channel, Cartoon Network, TNT Africa, Food Network and several others were all at risk of removal. 

A platform charging premium prices while removing the channels people subscribed for is not a product anymore but a subscription to disappointment.

DSTV built its Nigerian dominance on a monopoly with no serious competition for decades. So it did what every monopoly does when it feels untouchable. It raised prices whenever it wanted, reduced value whenever it could, and treated Nigerian subscribers like they had no alternative.

Then Netflix arrived. Then YouTube got faster. Then data became more accessible. Then the naira collapsed and Nigerians had to choose between DSTV and eating.

Omo we chose eating.

MultiChoice responded by cutting decoder prices from N20,000 to N10,000 and launching a promotional campaign called “We Got You”.

“We Got You” from the same company that raised your subscription three times in 24 months, removed your favourite channels, and treated your complaints like background noise.

They did not get you, they lost you and now they are running after you with a discount like an ex who only calls when they realise you moved on.

DSTV is not falling because of Netflix or the economy.

It is falling because it spent twenty years treating Nigerian consumers with contempt and assumed loyalty was the same thing as having no choice.

Nigerians finally got a choice but not MultiChoice

THE WARLORD IN ABUJA: A Chronicle of Blood, Bribes, and Billion-Dollar Land Grabs

How Nyesom Wike — Nigeria’s Most Dangerous Public Official — Has Made a Career Out of Threats, Violence, and Corruption

By Kio Amachree | Stockholm, Sweden | President, Worldview International

There is a man in Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory who once told a television journalist on live national broadcast that he would have shot him through the screen. A man who, years earlier, was caught on audio tape allegedly threatening to ensure INEC electoral officers would not leave Rivers State alive if they failed to deliver rigged results for his candidates. A man now accused in documented reports, backed by certificates of occupancy and official sources inside his own ministry, of allocating over 2,000 hectares of prime Abuja land worth an estimated $3.6 billion to his own son. That man is Nyesom Wike — FCT Minister, former Governor of Rivers State, and the most recklessly brazen political figure operating in Nigeria today.

Nigeria deserves to know the full measure of this man. So let us count the record.

The Tape That Should Have Ended Him

In December 2016, Sahara Reporters published what can only be described as a political bombshell. Audio recordings captured a voice identified as Governor Wike’s arranging payments to INEC officials in exchange for their assistance rigging the Rivers State legislative rerun elections. In one particularly chilling exchange, when the governor was informed that one electoral officer was reluctant to sign a result sheet, the voice on the tape threatened not only to reclaim his money but declared the man would not leave Rivers State alive. 

The recordings revealed the governor coordinating with INEC officials sent from Anambra and Plateau States, paying them in batches to deliver PDP victories across Etche, Khana, Ikwerre, and other local government areas where Wike had boasted his forces would overwhelm all opposition with violence. 

His government denied it. They called it doctored. They called the journalists quacks. The tape remains.

Rivers of Blood: Electoral Violence as Governance Strategy

This was not an isolated incident. It was the culmination of years of systematic political terror. Following killings associated with the 2015 electoral violence in Rivers State, the APC accused Wike and his PDP of planting, nurturing, and carrying out violence during subsequent rerun elections — describing the governor’s own judicial inquiry as a smokescreen to divert attention from his role in the deaths. 

During the 2016 rerun elections, hoodlums wearing military uniforms diverted election materials, kidnapped INEC officials and ad hoc electoral personnel, ambushed and murdered civilians and security agents — including an Army major and three soldiers. Between seven and twelve people reportedly died. 

One newspaper described Wike as having received his governorship “splashing in a guggling pool of blood.”  That is not hyperbole. It is the documented record.

The Rivers-Abuja Crisis: Arson, Killings, and a State Held Hostage

When Wike left the governorship for the FCT ministerial post, he did not leave Rivers State behind. He simply moved his war to Abuja while continuing to wage it remotely in Port Harcourt.

The political fallout between Governor Fubara and his predecessor Wike led in October 2023 to the bombing of a section of the Rivers State House of Assembly Complex. By October 2024, three local government secretariats had been set ablaze. 

The muscle-flexing degenerated into deep ethnic cleavages, arson, and killings, with observers noting it was as though Rivers State had two governors simultaneously. 

A subsequent Rivers State Judicial Commission of Inquiry summoned 109 persons — including a member of the State House of Assembly representing Eleme Constituency and a known Wike supporter — over violence at local government secretariats in Ikwerre, Eleme, and Emuoha, where properties were attacked by suspected political thugs. 

Wike has vowed to block Governor Fubara’s reelection in 2027. In his political dictionary, “block” has historically meant more than lawful opposition.

The Journalist He Wanted to Shoot

On April 3, 2026, Wike appeared at a live media briefing and turned his rage on a television anchor. His target: Channels Television’s Seun Okinbaloye, who had raised concerns about Nigeria drifting toward a one-party state.

Wike said on camera: “If there was any way to break the screen, I would have shot him.” 

Amnesty International Nigeria condemned the remarks as a conditional threat, stating that even hypothetical expressions of violent intent constitute intimidation and cannot be dismissed as harmless. 

The Nigeria Union of Journalists described the comment as reckless and dangerous, constituting a direct attempt to intimidate and silence the press. 

The African Action Congress called for Wike’s immediate arrest and prosecution. 

Wike later said it was figurative. A minister who is “figuratively” shooting journalists on national television is still a minister who has normalised the language of assassination as political discourse.

The Billion-Dollar Land Heist

If the violence is the headline, the corruption is the foundation. In Abuja, Wike has treated the Federal Capital Territory’s land registry as a personal inheritance fund.

According to investigative documents reviewed by The Gazette, Wike’s youngest son Joaquin received at least 2,000 hectares — the equivalent of 40,000 plots — across Maitama, Asokoro, Guzape, and other parts of the FCT, with certificates of occupancy valued conservatively at $3.6 billion. Sources inside the minister’s office reported that when aides warned the minister to slow down on allocations to his children, Wike dismissed their concerns, declaring his goal was to make his children the largest landowners in Abuja. 

Documents showed the allocations to JOAQ Farms and Estates Ltd — a company registered in October 2024 and linked to Joaquin — began barely a week after the company’s registration, with 350 hectares allocated on October 17, 2024 alone. 

A coalition of civil society and socialist organisations described the scheme as involving over 2,082 hectares of the most valuable real estate in Nigeria’s capital, warning that Wike alone was positioned to steal more than what experts say Nigeria would need to close its entire national housing deficit of 20 million units. 

Meanwhile, several departments within the FCT Administration had gone months without salaries while this looting proceeded. 

Defying Courts, Displacing the Poor

Wike’s conduct as FCT Minister has also involved multiple allegations of contempt for the rule of law.

Sahara Reporters documented in detail the case of a property owner whose land at Plot 541B, Kukwaba District, was demolished despite the existence of active court proceedings restraining any action — with the property subsequently re-designated under a new plot number and immediately fenced off, raising accusations of outright land seizure.  The owner reported police officers selling off materials from the demolished structures as the demolition proceeded.

The Housing Justice Movement has further accused the FCT Administration under Wike of attempting to secretly privatise Jabi Lake Park through a luxury tourism concession signed in February 2026 with private firms, displacing hundreds of ordinary residents, traders, and small business owners who depend on one of Abuja’s last accessible public green spaces. 

The Pattern Is the Point

This is not a string of unrelated controversies. This is a documented pattern across decades: electoral violence in Rivers State, death threats on tape, the arson and killings of the Fubara crisis, the threat to shoot a journalist on live television, the demolition of properties in defiance of court orders, the alleged allocation of billions in public land to his own children, and the systematic displacement of the poor from Abuja to enrich political insiders.

Political commentators have noted that in his time as Rivers governor, Wike showed himself to be a maximum political warlord — controlling who emerged as his successor, who sat in the legislature, and who could safely operate in the state’s political space. 

He has simply brought that model to the national capital, where the stakes are higher, the land is worth more, and the press is slightly less afraid of him — for now.

Nigeria’s descent into institutional rot does not happen in a vacuum. It is built brick by brick by men like Nyesom Wike, who have been allowed to threaten, rig, demolish, and loot without facing a single meaningful consequence. The 2027 elections are approaching. The question Nigerians must confront is this: if this man is permitted to continue as a kingmaker, what kind of king does Nigeria get?

A Nation Losing Its HUMANITY.

Some events shatter a society so deeply that words are no longer enough to express the shock; the brutal killing of a teacher and the horrific rape and murder of an elderly woman are among such tragedies. These are not isolated incidents but signs of deeper moral and social decay.

How did we get here? How did we reach a point where teachers are hunted and killed, and the elderly—custodians of memory and wisdom—suffer such dehumanising violence?

This is more than a security crisis; it is a failure of collective humanity. We have become desensitised, consuming tragedy briefly and moving on, allowing indifference to normalise the unacceptable.

To the families affected, I share in your grief. But grief alone is not enough.

We must demand accountability and urgent systemic change. If such atrocities no longer move us to action, then we risk losing our shared humanity. -PO

State visits by Leaders are not tourism, and diplomacy is not a fashion parade. Every foreign trip undertaken by a government must deliver measurable benefits to the people, including investments, technology transfer, trade agreements, factory expansion, industrial partnerships, and job creation.

During President Trump’s recent visit to China, the American delegation reportedly included a few top government officials, and many of the biggest figures in global business and technology:
Consequently, huge trade deals worth several billion dollars including about 200 Boeing orders were achieved.
The list of the entourage included

1. Donald J. Trump – President of the United States
2. Marco Rubio – Secretary of State
3. Pete Hegseth – Secretary of Defence
4. Elon Musk – CEO, Tesla & SpaceX
5. Jensen Huang – CEO, Nvidia
6. Tim Cook – CEO, Apple
7. Larry Fink – CEO, BlackRock
8. Stephen Schwarzman – CEO, Blackstone
9. Kelly Ortberg – CEO, Boeing
10. Brian Sikes – CEO, Cargill
11. Jane Fraser – CEO, Citigroup
12. Larry Culp – CEO, General Electric
13. David Solomon – CEO, Goldman Sachs
14. Sanjay Mehrotra – CEO, Micron Technology
15.Cristiano Amon – CEO, Qualcomm
16. Dina P. McCormick – President of Meta
17. Ryan McInerney – CEO, Visa
18. Michael Miebach – President, Mastercard
19. Jim Anderson – CEO, Coherent
20. Jacob Thaysen – CEO, Illumina

That is how serious nations approach diplomacy, by aligning foreign policy with economic expansion, industrial growth, innovation, and national productivity.

I hope that lessons can be learned from these recent visits comparing them with the President of Nigeria’s recent state visit to the United Kingdom.

A large entourage of politicians, aides, and government officials travelled, yet Nigerians are still asking a simple question: what exactly did Nigeria bring home?

Which factories are coming to Nigeria?
What power, technology, manufacturing, agricultural, or industrial agreements were secured?
How many direct jobs will this visit create for Nigerian youths?
What investments were attracted?
What measurable economic outcomes can the ordinary Nigerian point to?
The delegation reportedly included:
1. President Bola Tinubu
2. Senator (Mrs) Tinubu
3.12 governors
4.9 ministers
5.7 members of the National Assembly
6. Over 20 senior State House staff
7. Over 30 security personnel
8. Over 10 domestic staff
9. Several supporters and associates

It is not enough to ride horses, wear matching uniforms, attend royal banquets, and release glossy photographs. Symbolism without substance cannot feed hungry citizens.

Today, Nigeria is in decline, battling serious insecurity, food insecurity, unemployment, a weakened naira, declining industrial productivity, and worsening poverty.
At a time when millions of Nigerians struggle daily to afford food and survive economic hardship, every kobo spent on foreign trips must produce tangible national value: investments, factories, jobs, exports, infrastructure, and economic opportunities.

Nigeria needs leadership that is focused less on optics and more on productivity; less on ceremony and more on measurable economic results.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

There are some things your laptop can do, but you don't even know.

Anyway, come with me...

💻 1/
Let's say you're in the middle of something private on your laptop and you don't want others to see it. Then someone suddenly shows up and wants to use the laptop.

Just press WINDOWS + CTRL + D

This will create a new desktop entirely. That way, the other person can do whatever they want on the new desktop without seeing what you were doing.

👉🏽 When that person is done and you want to switch back to what you were doing:

Just use:
WINDOWS + CTRL + ← (Left Arrow)

Everything will return where you left it.

👉🏽 And if you want to see all the separate desktops you've opened:

Press WINDOWS + TAB

This opens Task View, which allows you to switch between desktops or close the ones you don’t need.

🖥️ 2/
You know that moment when you're using Chrome or Firefox, and you mistakenly close a tab you badly need. Maybe you were even doing a very important registration at that point.

Just press CTRL + SHIFT + T

The tab will reopen. Press it again, and the one before it returns too. This works on Chrome, Edge, and Firefox.

💻 3/
Let's say you have fifteen apps open and you don't want to be clicking through the taskbar one by one.

Just hold ALT, then tap TAB.

All the apps will pop up on the screen just like you usually see on your smartphone.

Then you can use arrow keys or even your mouse to flip through all your open apps/windows smoothly.

............

Which of these did you know before, and which of them is the most helpful to you?

Share any other tips you know.

And please repost for others to see.
