Passionate Researcher: Changing lives through integrated research

I'll make it make sense to you.

Support who you want to support; don't tell other countries who to support!

The pan-Africanism you are preaching isn't for other Africans but SAs.

Dr. Ruben only advised Nigerians to support another team.

There is no issue with that!

[Hopewell Chin’ono @daddyhope]

Please help me understand something.

I still do not understand why Africans should mobilise themselves to support a South American team over an African team, South Africa. The fact that there have been xenophobic and Afrophobic attacks in South Africa by a minority of South Africans against fellow Africans does not necessarily mean we should throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Emotional reactions rarely produce meaningful solutions. In moments like these, I believe it is important to reflect and ask ourselves, what would Julius Nyerere have said? Would Nyerere have responded to Afrophobia by supporting Mexico against an African team? What would Kwame Nkrumah have said? More importantly, what would Nelson Mandela have said?

It is important to understand that when someone does something wrong, and you respond by doing something similar, you risk becoming what you are criticising. But when someone mistreats you and you respond with maturity, principle and love, you break the cycle of toxicity. People can then clearly see the difference between the two of you.

If you choose to fight a pig in the mud, both of you end up covered in mud, and from a distance it becomes difficult to tell the difference. Sometimes the most powerful response is not retaliation, but demonstrating the values you wish others would embrace.

These are simply my reflections. People are free to support whichever team they want. However, choosing a team solely because of the xenophobic and Afrophobic actions of a minority group in South Africa, and then treating the entire South African nation as if it is united with that minority, does not strike me as the best path towards African unity.

If we truly believe in Pan-Africanism, then we must be careful not to judge millions of people by the actions of a few. Otherwise, we risk reinforcing the very divisions that we claim to oppose.

And to my African brothers and sisters who have large social media platforms and are followed by millions of people across different media platforms, as I am, we have a responsibility to be measured in what we say. We must use our influence to guide people towards solutions rather than inflame the very problems we claim to be trying to solve.

Leadership is not about amplifying anger, resentment or division. It is about encouraging reflection, dialogue and understanding. Our words carry weight, and with that influence comes a duty to build bridges, not burn them.

If we genuinely want a more united Africa, then we must be careful not to deepen existing wounds for applause or engagement. We should be helping people find common ground and practical solutions rather than accentuating the very challenges we are trying to overcome.

E say na people serving the government!

E say na treason!

You better go back and retake civic education if you ever did.

[𝔼𝕟𝕟𝕪 @ennyola0015]

Joke taken too far.

You are free to criticize government policies, but standing before members of the armed forces and attempting to stir discontent against the government they serve could be viewed as an act of treason.

@adeyanjudeji @Iyoaiye_ If being a political jobber and chastivist was the root to the international Criminal Court, you @adeyanjudeji would have had a jutice's seat!

If dem born you well, tackle Atiku or Elrufai, coward looking for soft target!

[Frederick Jr, PhD @kyeric007]

@Big_marvis I think you have a brain to understand what has been put before you!

[Grok @grok]

**Big_marvis** The World Bank and FG jointly cancelled the remaining ~$718m undisbursed portion of the Power Sector Recovery Programme this month. It was due to unmet reform conditions, implementation delays, and shifting priorities—not "looting."

Power supply has not improved meaningfully for most Nigerians; blackouts continue amid tariff shortfalls and structural issues.

Public debt has risen sharply (tens of trillions Naira added since 2023, per DMO and reports), used for FX clearance, repayments, reserves, and some infra—but debt servicing now eats a huge share of revenue.

Ex-Minister Adelabu (Power) resigned in April and is eyeing Oyo governorship. Valid questions on results and accountability remain, regardless of administration. Data over accusations.

@_JtAtta You want to corner your into the chambers.

You better go and start business with your money.

[Frederick Jr, PhD @kyeric007]

@Dhak_nait @Nigeriangod_ No, who takes the last eye first will still see.

So if they take one, take 2 eyes!

[Frederick Jr, PhD @kyeric007]

@Morris_Monye @special_Ada_Ide @trigottista @Karigwe 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Stray bullet will still be hitting you, but just know, no love lost!

[Frederick Jr, PhD @kyeric007]

@Morris_Monye @Keisha_Lakish For me, you are an amazing personality.... Saying I'm sorry is a sign a strength and maturity @Morris_Monye

Thank you and welcome back!!

[Frederick Jr, PhD @kyeric007]

@MeePlusYou @Morris_Monye He knows deep down he messed up, but as you know.. saying "I am sorry" to many Nigerians is like burying oneself in the grave.

@Morris_Monye the point is, if you were resigning without malicious intent, the letter would have been short, precise, and direct!

We all have brains!

[Frederick Jr, PhD @kyeric007]

@harri_in_SIN @ansem_edet Bro, you shouldn't argue with someone who needs to raise his feet to reflect the emptiness of his brain!

You shouldn't!

[Frederick Jr, PhD @kyeric007]

@timmyisagod How do you expect me to go there, with so much to lose and get killed, because my candidate isn't the hoodlums' preferred candidate.

Oboy, if you die in such a place, even the angels will question your IQ.

Nigerian politician keeps its people uneducated and poor for a reason!

[Bashir Ahmad, OON @BashirAhmaad]

Whether that terrorist leader, Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, who was reportedly the second-in-command of the ISIS, was eliminated yesterday or back in August 2024, it is still the same. The important thing is that he is no longer alive to continue terrorizing and brutalizing innocent people.

Kudos to the U.S. troops for their efforts and God bless the Nigerian Armed Forces for their sacrifices and relentless commitment to protecting lives and defending our nation.

[Frederick Jr, PhD @kyeric007]

You should use the same energy to
defend why your principal is running 3 concurrent budgets and has refused to publish the expenditure for 3 years.

Be convulsing on irrelevance!😫

[Akinwumi @Big_marvis]

This is peak Obidient brain rot.
Tinubu (born ~1952) & Remi (~1960) have a normal 8-year age gap. They married in 1987 when he was mid-30s.

Subtracting her current age from his and screaming “he was 8 years old at marriage!! Perjury!!” is not a gotcha. It’s 4th-grade math failure + TDS.
The desperation is actually embarrassing. 😂

Unfortunately, there is no difference between Obidients and Peter Obi himself.

Birds of a feather flocks together.
