I have consistently continued to respectfully appeal to those in office today to prioritise reconstruction and maintenance of existing roads and other infrastructure over commencing new ones.

I left someone in Onitsha on Saturday night to take the first bus to Lagos on Sunday morning. Until I left Lagos at 8 pm yesterday, he had not arrived in Lagos. He only arrived in Lagos at about 2 pm today. A journey that usually takes a maximum of 8 hours now takes nearly two days.

This is not just about bad roads. It is about lost man-hours, stranded passengers sleeping on highways, wasted fuel, damaged vehicles, delayed goods, and businesses losing millions of naira.

Nigerians do not need new projects just for the headlines. We need functional roads that make life and economic activity possible.

A government must understand that infrastructure is not necessarily about the size of the project; it is about the number of lives and livelihoods it improves.

A new Nigeria is POSSIBLE, and Nigeria will be OK. -PO

Nigerians trapped on the Benin road are creating extra paths in the bush to escape the gridlock.😭

See the pains and sufferings the people have to go through because of a terrible and irresponsible leadership!✍️

This is a deliberate sabotage of the Eastern Economy corridor (EEC).

Many of you will not understand this tweet.

But the Nigerian state is deliberate in their attempt to strangulate the EEC.

Nigeria Cannot Become a Killing Field

What is happening to our country?

In recent days, deadly attacks have struck Benue, Plateau and Niger States, three contiguous states in Nigeria’s North-Central region.

In Mangu, Plateau State, at least 23 people were officially reported killed in the Jwak Maitumbi attack, while residents put the toll above 30. More than 45 houses were reportedly destroyed. In Borgu, Niger State, recent attacks reportedly killed over 40 people and abducted more than 100, though the figures remain contested.

This comes amid continuing violence in Benue, where communities face repeated killings, abductions and the destruction of homes and livelihoods.

Nigeria is not officially at war, yet citizens are being attacked in their villages, abducted after prayers, driven from their homes and stripped of their farms.

What is happening in Benue, Plateau and Niger is similar to what is happening elsewhere in the country, with some attacks even going unreported. The violence across these states must no longer be treated as isolated incidents. It is a national security emergency requiring urgent and coordinated action.

I urge governments at all levels to wake up to their responsibility and take urgent and decisive action to end this madness once and for all.

Government must protect vulnerable communities, improve intelligence and rapid-response capabilities, rescue abducted Nigerians, and arrest and prosecute those responsible.

We cannot keep counting bodies after every attack. We must prevent these attacks before they happen.

Protecting lives and property is the most basic duty of government. Nigerians deserve nothing less.

Nigeria must not become a killing field. -PO

You’ve got state governors who’ve decided their only job is working to re-elect the president, but you feel say na jargo be your problem. Una go learn.

[Jesse Jagz Abaga @Jessejagz]

Abuja has more campaign buses than Nigeria has ambulances. Let that sink in.

“We have our culture and values” a country where scammers are kings, former fraudsters are governors and chief of staff

[Ayòmídé @Ayomide]

Person go chop allocation meant for your hospitals, roads, water works, schools…. You go see the person for community still they call them ‘your excellency’ and be groveling like a puppet that you are, all in the name of cultural respect….

You need to respect yourself first!

[Thrilla the Gorilla @ThrillaRilla369]

Maybe I’m wrong but I think a government that demands accountability for how you spend YOUR money, but refuses to account for how it spends YOUR money, should be immediately replaced.

Almost a 30 minutes address, man did not mention the name of a single politician,

They cannot talk without mentioning his name.

Haha 😆

I love Peter Obi.

The @officialEFCC under Ola Olukoyede is inherently evil.

I sat through two separate court sittings today in which two individuals, including Maryam Isa Shehu, a female student of Bayero University Kano (BUK), were arraigned before Justice Joyce Abdulmalik by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (@officialEFCC) for allegedly “cyberbullying” the agency.

In each case, the defendants had already spent close to 30 days in detention before they were brought before the court. Yet, instead of being allowed to return home while their cases proceed, they were both remanded in prison custody, Maryam was sent to Suleja Prison, while the other defendant was sent to Kuje Prison, where they are expected to remain until August 31.

What makes Maryam’s situation even more disturbing is that she is a final-year university student who is due to begin her final examinations this Saturday.

None of that appeared to matter.

An anti-corruption agency should be fighting corruption, not turning itself into an institution for hunting down, detaining and prosecuting citizens over criticism or alleged “cyberbullying.”

What kind of institution detains a university student for nearly a month, arraigns her for allegedly cyberbullying the agency, and then seeks to keep her behind bars while her final examinations are about to begin?

[iDAN 🦸🏽 @dangbanamanager]

She didn’t steal. She didn’t defraud anyone. Yet EFCC has reportedly kept Maryam Shehu in detention for over 30 days after she raised corruption allegations against EFCC officials.

If she committed a crime, charge her in court. If not, release her.

An agency cannot be complainant, investigator and judge in a case involving its own officials.

Investigation is not punishment. Free Maryam Shehu.

“We have spent more than five to six hours on this Benin City Bypass. Instead of fixing existing roads, they are busy emphasising the Lagos coastal road.”

The owner of this business is the person they say cannot become a good president that will take Nigeria out of this mess Nigeria is currently in?

How many politicians can boast of having a thriving business like this without politics money?
