By merely living in Nigeria, you stand a great risk of losing your humanity; losing your sense of right and wrong. Losing your sense of justice. Becoming very tolerant of incompetence.
"Nigeria" is a dehumanizing experience.
@YIFmed@AfricaFirsts We are talking about Africa's greatest of all time, not greatest of 2026. Badou Zaki, Nurudeen Naybet and Mustapha Hadji; 3 of Morocco's greatest aren't even good enough to be mentioned here.
Dear Alex Onyia @winexviv,
Concerned Nigerians have read your recent tweet where you said the Ministry of Education is demanding total handover of the Olympiads portfolio so they can sponsor them with government funds.
Please don’t fall for the illusion that the federal government is selling you.
They didn’t care about these Olympiads for 7 years. Now that you’ve single-handedly redefined education and put the finest brains among our teens on the global map, they suddenly want to “sponsor” everything.
Don’t let them politicize your hard work, which they will definitely do if you emotionally allow them.
They will introduce tribalism, disqualify the best students, and push incompetent ones forward just as they’ve always done.
Look at our athletes under government sponsorship. How many times have they missed international appearances?
This is classic Tinubu and APC style.
Please protect what you’ve built.
Our children deserve merit, not politics.

By the way, this motherfucker recommended Nigeria sever ties with China and Russia to increase its unequal cooperation with the US, France, Hungary and the UK.
As if that's not enough, Nigeria should “continue expanding” with the same country that funded terrorism in our country, including for Nigeria to stop buying military equipment from Russia for America's equipment, which, as always, Abuja cannot use to kill U.S.-funded terrorists across the country.
I'm not making it up. Read for yourself: https://t.co/qgZYLGQh3s
This is like a massive, stinging slap in the face of every self-righteous proponent of the free-market economy who works tirelessly to brainwash the entire planet into believing that limited government intervention is inherently good, that state regulation is evil, and that prices will always magically find their true, natural value.
If the state does not decisively intervene to stop corrupt oligarchs, private equity firms, and global investment giants from buying up every single affordable residential home, real estate prices will never find a value that respects basic human dignity, local communities, or the working class. Instead, they will only ever find a highly inflated, artificial value that strictly protects the greedy corporate interests, profit margins, and portfolios of multi-billion-dollar venture capitalists.
Socialism works and will always work. Even the most ruthless capitalists on Wall Street still desperately lobby for massive government tax cuts, multi-billion-dollar state bailouts, favorable regulatory loopholes, protectionist trade tariffs, and direct central bank interventions, which is basically nothing but a highly customized, tax-funded communist manifesto designed exclusively for the rich, the powerful, and the politically connected.
African Proverb Of The Week
One of the most tried and true tactics of Western imperialism is “divide and conquer”. From “favoring” certain ethnic groups over others, to arming insurgencies, to bankrolling separatist and/or “opposition” movements, the West has spent centuries fueling petty divisions in its colonies across the Global South, so that their masses are always too busy fighting each other to mount any meaningful resistance.
These petty divisions have robbed Africa of so many of its great modern visionaries, Nkrumah, Lumumba, Sankara, Gaddafi, and condemned the continent to decades of economic stagnation. And now that the winds of liberation are blowing across the continent again, the West is doing everything in its power to turn Africa against its new visionaries: the leaders of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES).
This West African proverb reminds us, as Africans, to always ask ourselves who truly benefits from our internal squabbles, and never again allow this enemy to turn us against our best and brightest.
“We cannot allow Africa to unite, control its own resources or develop”
Kwame Nkrumah challenged this, and exposed how imperialism continued after independence, and he was violently overthrown by a coup sponsored by the usual suspects.
Today, some misguided Africans are asking, “why should we continue to blame the colonizers (that never left)?”
The Educated Nigerian and the UnEducated Nigerian are the same,
Because they have the same aspirations and thinking Process (Individual Survival). One merely uses his Education to improve his chances of surviving at the bottom of the global hierarchy of human beings
@DavidHundeyin His dad is arguably Ghana's greatest fooballer of all time.
However the Ayew brothers never got close to achieving their father's death but have been surviving in the national team on his reputation.
It is time the coach prioritises merit over sentiment.
When we criticize religious leaders for failing to call out bad leadership, and for extravagant spending on large auditoriums while people suffer from lack of jobs and hospitals, people say we should face the leaders and leave the religious houses out of it because they’re not the government. I agree, they’re not the government. Pastors shouldn’t be held accountable for the lack of good roads, hospitals, or schools for the average person.
But now, tell me, why are these same pastors trying to convince the average person that the work of security is in the hands of God, and that the government has done its best? Are you people not mad like this?
God is not building us hospitals. God has looked away from our bad roads. God seems not to be interested in building factories for us. And, quite frankly, we’re not angry with Him for looking away from all of this, because we have a government that collects our taxes, manages our resources, controls our money, and regulates our trades. That government has access to our national treasury, and all we’re asking of them is to use what we have to build a society where humans can live.
And now you, who have been saying we should leave you alone because you are not that government, are telling us that our security can only be fixed by God? You mean the God who has abandoned our schools, our hospitals, our roads, and has failed to build us a single factory? You mean that God will now go into the bush to rescue the children He watched get kidnapped?
Again, are you people not mad like this?
@Blue_Footy "Overwhelming"?.
They are not even the favourites. France are.
How you made them favourites after they struggled to beat Cape Verde is beyond me.
“The shortest-serving Chief of Army Staff, General Attahiru, promised Nigerians he would end the war. But he later died in a mysterious helicopter crash. We saw videos of people jumping out of the helicopter, which means he was killed before the crash because he was trying to destroy the business of the cabal, The military or the government can’t solve Nigeria problem, The youth should rise up to solve the Nigeria problems themselves, As for me that have served the army, am now in depression. I am not scared to die anytime, buh what about you and your future.”
~ Former retired Captain Effiong Eyo says 👀🇳🇬
“The reason General Musa was first removed was because he gave direct orders to soldiers. The cabal has destroyed the military, which is why Nigeria kept experiencing military coups. Everything is externally controlled. Nigerians were once united and loved one another, but the cabal didn’t want that. There was a time Nigeria’s currency was stronger than that of some European countries, and Nigeria even gave Gabon $20 million as aid. According to the speaker, the cabal wasn’t happy with Nigeria’s progress.”
~ Former retired Captain Effiong Eyo makes allegations 👀
What happens when an internet leftist darling from the Global South does something that western internet leftists do not understand and can't be bothered to research?
Complete meltdown.
The cabal he is talking about is the United Kingdom.
This is documented history.
In 1886, the British government granted a royal charter to the Royal Niger Company.
The company was a private British business that obtained treaties with some local rulers, controlled trade along the Niger River, and exercised administrative powers in parts of what is now Nigeria.
These treaties were often unequal, misunderstood by local leaders, or signed under pressure. Some even under duress. It was a great exploitation.
The British government took over
In 1899, the British government revoked the company's charter and bought the company's administrative rights, assets, and infrastructure.
This is why Peter Obi ran to Chatham to seek the approval of the owners of the property known as Nigeria.
You don't have leaders; you have caretakers who have no power but must act as instructed.
Nigerians have an illusion of choice just like any Democracy. It doesn't matter which party you vote for, you vote for the same people.
The only scramble for power is between themselves. Who is worthy to be the caretaker of Nigeria?
Every Nigerian politician, fights only for what they stand to benefit from as the caretakers of this British property.
That's all!
