Given how pissed the old-time gangster grandpa is, there’s no way he wouldn’t storm Nigeria with a truckload of arms and ammunition if the Nigerian government ever legalized firearms like he demands.

Please don’t deactivate your ADC membership yet, you need to use it in the primaries to vote for someone that is not Atiku to emerge as their presidential candidate
Fellow Nigerians, good morning.
I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you.
Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry daily—the private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances.
We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the people—a society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal.
More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism.
We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishness—a system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power.
Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise.
Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them.
However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building.
Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in one’s own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated.
And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions.
There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline?
Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from.
Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all.
A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO
"Peter Obi won the previous election."
I agree
I voted for him too.
So why is he not the President after winning?
"Oh corrupt INEC stole our mandate."
Okay so INEC is no longer corrupt?
He won the last election by popular vote, he will win again by popular vote.
But you will tell me if it is your father who will announce the result.
Most of you just dress well, you don't have sense. Common sense like this you don't have upstairs.
When Tinubu was not President, Peter Obi won the election but Tinubu became President, what makes you think now that, if Tinubu is President Peter Obi will now become President after winning the election?
What is that factor that will give us a different outcome? Just point it out.
A private citizen gave 10X in one year more than the federal government.
Quietly running a parallel government supporting education and health across the federation.
This same private citizen keeps getting the stick from unfortunate scrapyard rats.
His only crime is simple.
Another fact about Igbo culture for you "emergency Igbo culture custodians".
Before colonialism and Christianity, there were no surnames. Children were known by their FIRST NAME and MOTHER'S NAME.
For example, if your name is Chibuike and Your mother's name is Mgborie, you were called Chibuike Nwa Mgborie.
Why was it so? Because in Igbo culture, the child is seen as belonging to their Mum.
Also, back then because most men were polygamous, it made more sense for children to be recognized by their mother's names father than their father's.
It was Christian missionaries who introduced the concept of surnames and then instead of retaining the mother's names as the surname, switched it to be the father's name because that was their own practice.
Even till date, people might refer to you as "Nwa (insert your mother's name)"
Surnames are a "new" and foreign concept for Igbo people.
If this upsets you, yet you claim to love your Mum, you are a fool indeed.
Ok, first off ọhá is a sacred tree revered by many in Igboland.
It has so much spiritual power and a feminine energy that it abhors evil & sharp objects. If you cut the stem of an ọhá tree it will bleed and something terrible will happen.
People who prune the branches usually take permission from the tree before they commence.
The bitter taste it gives on your food is a sign of wailing and disapproval.
