The abduction of the Chibok girls in 2014 triggered a global movement. One school abduction was enough to unite Nigerians, attract international attention, and place enormous pressure on the government through the #BringBackOurGirls campaign.
Yet, what has happened since then should trouble every Nigerian.
Under President Buhari's eight years in office, Nigeria witnessed about ten school abductions. Under President Tinubu's administration, in just three years, we have already recorded over ten school abductions.
Despite these repeated tragedies, there has been neither sustained national outrage nor significant international attention comparable to what followed Chibok.
This raises an important question: have we become so accustomed to insecurity that what once shocked our national conscience is now treated as normal?
At a time when millions of Nigerians are grappling with insecurity, poverty, and hardship, it is deeply troubling that those in power appear more focused on political calculations and preparations for the next election than on addressing the urgent challenges confronting our people.
It is, therefore, no surprise that some observers have labelled us a "Now Disgraced Nation". While we do not agree with any attempt to define our great country by its present difficulties, we must acknowledge that persistent insecurity, economic hardship, and leadership failure have damaged our reputation and standing among nations.
The answer is not denial, propaganda, or political distraction. The answer is leadership that is competent, compassionate, accountable, and genuinely committed to the welfare and security of the Nigerian people.
The Nigerian youth must not become indifferent. We must all refuse to normalise failure.
Young Nigerians - Take back your country!

Any artist, actor, content creator, or influencer who stays silent about the insecurity and suffering in this country simply doesn’t care.
When it’s time for their projects, albums, movies, shows, or campaigns, reciprocate that same energy.
Ignore them.
@Israel70492823 That is the role of misinformation and disinformation cos his audience would not read through like you did but just focus on the headline and run with it
- Come back home to vote if they can.
- Vociferously preach the gospel to friends & family back home, flood them with first hand perspectives on how much difference a working clime makes in quality of life.
- Contribute $$$ to mobilization efforts on ground.

Did anyone Notice, NASS created a bill to Trap PO in ADC. Instead the Bill Backfired badly & Led to THE LARGEST RETIREMENT OF POLITICIANS IN NIGERIAN HISTORY. Many of them lost their Primaries Ystd & their New Bill restricts them From Decamping to another Party to Contest. 🤣😫
I have witnessed this club go from doubters to believers, and from believers to champions. It took hard work and I always did everything I could to help the club get there. Nothing makes me prouder than that.
Us crumbling to yet another defeat this season was very painful and not what our fans deserve. I want to see Liverpool go back to being the heavy metal attacking team that opponents fear and back to being a team that wins trophies. That is the football I know how to play and that is the identity that needs to be recovered and kept for good. It cannot be negotiable and everyone that joins this club should adapt to it.
Winning some games here and there is not what Liverpool should be about. All teams win games.
Liverpool will always be a club that means a great deal to me and to my family. I want to see it succeed for long after I have moved on.
As I’ve always said, qualifying to next season’s Champions League is the bare minimum and I will do everything I can to make that happen.
My mother’s endorsement!
Today, as I was entering the house, my mother looked at me and said, Fatima, the politician,what is this OK? I smiled shyly and replied, Obi/Kwankwaso. She asked are they going to contest?
I said yes Insha’Allah
Then she said,I endorse them. 😍
This is Peter Obi's degree certificate. Why do some APC members keep saying he graduated with a 3rd class?
How come adults with brains have been so indoctrinated that they run only with whatever is posted on their WhatsApp group?
Don't gaslight me with this nonsense...
Under Klopp we saw effort , heart and zeal from the boys..
Please tell me what you can see this season under Slot
Its funny.
When we scraped 4th under Klopp after winning the league everyone called it a miracle because of our CB injury crisis.
Bear in mind everyone else was still very much available. We were top of the leaue after Van Dijk sufffered the injury.
This season, we have had significant injuries @ RB and up front. We have had to play midfiders at RB, overplay players like Hugo and play wingers up front.
Oh and our best player declined to average levels.
One season is praised as a miracle, the other is projected as a failure.
Go figure that one out.
Liverpool may be desperate to stick with Arne Slot, but that stance won't withstand the Anfield crowd turning against him. Today felt like that - these fans are just sick of watching a passive, toothless brand of football they have seen for over a year now.
