@ed_onoja Interested

[Chief Edward David Onoja @ed_onoja]

This video came across my timeline, and I was genuinely inspired by it.

There’s something refreshing about seeing young people gather in an atmosphere of worship, purpose, and authentic fellowship. I believe more people should have the opportunity to experience it.

So, I’ll be sponsoring 21 people resident in Lagos to attend Inner Circle Gospel Club this Friday at 8:00 pm.

If you’d like to be considered:

• Comment “Interested” below.
• Click the application link in thread and complete the form.

Applications close at 10:00 am on Thursday (tomorrow).

Successful applicants will be contacted directly and issued their tickets.

I hope this gives 21 people the opportunity to be part of what I believe will be a truly memorable and impactful experience.

God Bless.

@ed_onoja Speculation leads astray

[King Albarka @king_albarka]

No lies!

[Zeek @AgeneZeek]

Buying an inspirational book written by a billionaire whose father was a former Lagos State governor is like buying an Olympic racing manual from someone that started the 100m dash 80 metres ahead of everyone else.

Make it make sense.

@ed_onoja Congratulations, @realDonaldTrump

[Chief Edward David Onoja @ed_onoja]

365 days of Trump felt like a decade.

In just one year, the world saw decisive leadership return to the center stage. Borders were enforced, not debated. Global trade was renegotiated with national interest first. Energy independence was restored, anchoring economic confidence. America spoke plainly again, without apology or ambiguity.

Beyond its borders, the message was equally clear: Strength deters chaos. Allies adjusted. Adversaries recalibrated.

That posture echoed far beyond Washington. Even in Africa, it mattered. In Nigeria, renewed diplomatic engagement and security cooperation reaffirmed that strategic partnerships still count, especially in confronting insecurity, instability, and economic disruption.

This was not about style. It was about resolve. Not noise, but impact.

Love him or loathe him, one truth stands: some leaders manage time. Others redefine it. History always remembers the latter.

Happy One Year Anniversary - Donald Trump.

INSTITUTIONS, LAGOS, AND THE MISDIAGNOSIS OF POWER

Concerns about Lagos centric economic and institutional concentration are valid, but they are structural, not religious. This centralization affects Northern Christians, Middle Belt states, and even parts of the South East and South South. It is an economic governance issue, not evidence of a campaign against Northern Muslims.

It is also important to situate these decisions within practical economic and administrative realities. Lagos is Nigeria’s commercial nerve centre. Virtually all major commercial banks operating in Nigeria are headquartered in Lagos, and the Central Bank of Nigeria, as the apex regulatory and coordinating authority for the financial system, already maintains its strongest operational presence there. Locating certain regulatory and supervisory departments closer to the institutions they oversee reduces duplication, lowers logistics costs, shortens response times, and improves efficiency. This is administrative pragmatism, not regional favoritism.

The Bank of Industry’s expanded footprint in Lagos follows the same logic. Lagos hosts the largest concentration of industrial activity in Nigeria, ranging from manufacturing to services and export oriented enterprises. Positioning key BOI departments closer to the highest volume of industrial transactions enhances monitoring, financing turnaround, and sectoral impact. It does not diminish the relevance or access of industries in other regions, which remain beneficiaries of BOI interventions nationwide.

Similarly, FAAN’s operational emphasis on Lagos is hardly surprising. Murtala Mohammed International Airport is by far the busiest airport in Nigeria, handling the highest passenger traffic, cargo volume, and international connections. Concentrating aviation management and coordination capacity where activity is most intense is consistent with global best practice, not evidence of political bias.

As for NIMASA and the Nigerian Ports Authority, both institutions have long been headquartered in Lagos due to the city’s status as Nigeria’s primary maritime hub. The overwhelming majority of port activity, shipping traffic, and maritime services are anchored there. Any serious maritime economy would naturally situate its regulatory and operational core where the industry itself is concentrated.

These choices reflect efficiency, scale, and economic logic. They do not amount to an attempt to marginalize any region, nor can they reasonably be interpreted as a religious or sectional agenda. The real conversation Nigeria should be having is how to strengthen economic clusters across the country, not how to politicize administrative geography.

INSECURITY IN THE NORTH: A NATIONAL CHALLENGE, NOT A POLITICAL STRATEGY

Banditry, terrorism, and displacement in the North predate this administration. They affect Muslims and Christians alike and have devastated entire communities.

To suggest that insecurity is being tolerated or weaponized to politically weaken a religious bloc is a serious claim, one that demands evidence far stronger than proximity or timing. Insecurity thrives on weak institutions, not religious favoritism.

ON THE RUNNING MATE DEBATE AND THE DANGER OF SELECTIVE OUTRAGE

Recent media speculation about a possible Christian running mate in 2027 deserves calm and principled reflection. It is both the constitutional right and political prerogative of a party’s presidential candidate to choose a running mate based on multiple indices: character,competence,trust,loyalty,
leadership experience,electiral value, national balance, and the overriding interest of stability.

[King Albarka @king_albarka]

@ed_onoja Well detailed

[King Albarka @king_albarka]

Well detailed 👌

[Chief Edward David Onoja @ed_onoja]

In 2023, when our current distinguished, cerebral, and deeply experienced Vice President, His Excellency Senator Kashim Shettima, was chosen, some of us from the North who are Christians did not resort to grievance politics. Instead, we engaged our communities, many of them predominantly Christian, made the case for our party, and delivered votes against all odds.

We sold President Tinubu’s persona to those communities: his liberal instincts, his inclusiveness, and his respect for diversity. Today, those same communities are beginning to see that reality play out.

It is therefore surprising that the conversation has shifted to questioning why Northerners of a particular faith should even be considered for service in certain capacities.

Our campaign logic in 2023 was clear and it remains valid today. The offices of President, Vice President, Governor, or Deputy are not meant to lead Sunday services or Juma’at prayers, but to secure lives, unite the nation, and deliver prosperity. Public service must not be reduced to religious leanings.

When former Governor Nasir El Rufai, a famously intelligent and calculating political strategist, decided that Kaduna State’s long standing Muslim Christian ticket convention no longer mattered, nobody described it as a silent war against Southern Kaduna citizens who happen to be predominantly Christians.That irony should not be lost on us.

THE MOST DANGEROUS ASSUMPTION: REDEFINING THE NORTH BY RELIGION

The North has never survived by religious purity. It has endured because of shared geography, interwoven families, economic interdependence, and political coalition.

To now speak of a “Muslim North” losing power to a “Christian North” is to erase lived realities and hand ammunition to extremists on all sides.

We are Northerners first.

Any narrative that breeds mistrust or suspicion between Northern Muslims and Northern Christians is not resistance. It is self-inflicted sabotage.

FINAL WORD: VIGILANCE WITHOUT DIVISION

Power must always be scrutinized. Governments must always be questioned. But scrutiny must be grounded in facts, not fear, and vigilance must never come at the expense of unity.

If we fracture the North internally,to push a divisive narrative. We will be whittling down the political value the north has consistently brought to national politics.

The North does not need new labels. It needs fairness, security, opportunity, and inclusion for all its people.

That struggle is shared. And it must remain so.

May almighty Allah grant him eternal rest

[Chief Edward David Onoja @ed_onoja]

In a nation where the twin, hydra-headed monsters of tribalism and religious nepotism have long stifled our collective potential, one man reminded us of what too many have failed to show: HUMANITY FIRST.

Though our tribes and creeds may differ, in true brotherhood we stand. That is the Nigeria we must choose. That is the Nigeria we must build.

We will get there. It is only a matter of time. These monsters will fall, sooner than many think.

We pray that Almighty God grants him eternal rest and perfect peace in paradise.
