Dearest President @realDonaldTrump ,

There's an impostor who occupies the seat of Presidency in Nigeria.

The FBI was supposed to release files on his ass that he was a criminal but they redacted half of it under the Watchful eyes of Biden.

Kind avail the full Files, Let the world know a Criminal is our house.

[Dr Mo (Moses Paul) @Drmopaul]

On September 11, 2024, in a statement laced with bigotry, Bayo Onanuga, speaking on behalf of President Tinubu, labeled Peter Obi as "Nigeria's Donald Trump." The remark was intended to mock not only Mr @PeterObi but also Trump, underscoring a divisive political stance. At the time, political forecasts suggested that Kamala Harris was poised to succeed in the U.S. presidential race. Now, however, with Trump's resurgence on the horizon, they may find themselves having to explain this disparaging comparison to Trump's team, raising questions about the prudence of such rhetoric.

@edumontee Wow!
Congratulations to him.
This is an outstanding welcome. Greater heights to him.

[Field Marshal of the Han Dynasty @General_Oluchi]

DSS is not after Sowore. BayoHazard Onanuga did not mention him as one of those planning a protest. His name is also not on their so called list, but my beautiful name is. The Nigerian police is not after him but you want me to believe there’s nothing suspicious here.

Komot monkey hand for pot before e turn to human hand.

How far with the coastal road project that made them demolish a booming business in Lagos? Have they finished the construction?

Guys. I promise I'm not crazy, but I think this song is AI-generated 🤯🤯🤯

At first I thought it was odd that no matter how many times I Shazam-ed it, I kept getting a different result each time. There appeared to be no record whatsoever of this song anywhere on the internet. Then I noticed that the tonal changes in the voice track are weirdly mechanical and lacking the texture that is inherent to human voice movements. It's very subtle, but if you have a musical ear you can't miss it.

Then I got a Kenyan to translate it from Swahili and I realised that the song is an appeal for Kenyans to stop protesting and go back home because the finance bill has been rejected. In other words, this song (which was tweeted on Tuesday), describes events that were STILL ONGOING WHEN IT WAS TWEETED. Could a singer have written topical lyrics, then recorded, mixed, mastered and released this song inside 8 hours?

So I played it for a Kenyan audience to ask them if they had ever heard it or if they knew who the artist is. None of them had ever heard it before, nor could anyone identify the artist. The only thing we all agreed on was that the song is one heck of a catchy earworm.

And then I took a closer look at @MteteziPato who tweeted it, and I realised that this profile appears to be a recently registered Kenyan government handle involved in managing the narrative around the protest by branding protesters as criminals and appealing to flag-waving jingoism to convince Kenyans to stop protesting.

A look at the media posts of this profile reveals SEVERAL more completely anonymous, incredibly topical, amazingly mixed and mastered pro-government songs with lyrics built around the words "Tujadiliane" ("let's dialogue") and "Tusigombane" ("let's not fight)", with the tell-tale addition of AI-generated artwork. (https://t.co/7ze8JAgZPN). He/She/It has literally dozens of AI-generated media posts shilling William Ruto, insulting Gen Z and everything in between.

Kenya's government is using AI-generated music to influence Kenyans. 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

I'm not sure whether to be impressed at the ingenuity or horrified at the fact that AI has become THIS GOOD at mimicking human creativity. I really don't know how to feel about this at all.

Today, we say goodbye to Stella Ikwuegbu, a veteran actress whose unique talent and unforgettable presence have left an indelible mark on Nollywood. Known for her roles in several Nollywood classics from the 1990s and 2000s, Stella brought authenticity and vibrant energy to the screen, particularly in films with native themes.

While Stella may not have been the most prominent star or the lead in many movies, she carved out a niche for herself in the industry. Her distinct look and hoarse-sounding voice made her a perfect fit for roles in Igbo village settings, where she often portrayed quarrelsome characters with a sharp tongue. Whenever Stella appeared on screen, you knew peace was not an option, and her voice would echo across the community, making her presence felt.

Despite often playing characters that stirred trouble, Stella’s performances were always tinged with humor. There was something inherently funny and endearing about her, even when she was being serious. Her roles in films like “Ukwa,” “Cat & Rat,” “Reggae Boys,” and “Spoiler” showcased her ability to make audiences laugh and engage with her characters deeply.

Stella Ikwuegbu may not have always been in the spotlight, but her contributions to Nollywood were significant. She made her mark in her own unique way, and for that, she deserves to be remembered and celebrated.

Rest in peace, Stella Ikwuegbu.

Your voice, your talent, and your memorable performances will be cherished forever.

Why is the Kidney problem prevalent in our society today? It is because of what we consume. Many products are not well supervised by NAFDAC. What they do is satisfy you once you have the money.

Many products we consume in Nigeria are killing us gradually. Many drinks in the market are adulterated. Drinks are produced in markets with dirty waters and combinations of dangerous chemicals in a dirty environment using unserialized bottles.

It is but a matter of time before the things we consume go down to our kidneys to destroy them. The worse is that little kids of 5 and 10 are no longer safe. Many are in the hospitals with failed kidneys.

Products in Nigeria are killing us gradually. No one cares. Not even the government. They don't care.

Someone said a particular product is Killing people gradually and some of you are making noise. Even when you are a victim. Do you even know that some people are adulterating some medicines in the markets? Do you know that some of the medicines you take are not only fake but dangerous to your body? Imagine taking medicines with the hope of getting cured and the medicine is killing you all the more.

We are not sincere with ourselves and we don't care. After all, when people die we say that is how God wants it. We don't care if they died out of government negligence.

We have been damaged and lots of people are supporting their own killers.

Is Femi Fani Kayode A Failed Politician Seeking Relevance With Ndi Igbo?

I just finished reading Femi Fani Kayode's accusations of Ndi Igbo. You know that what gives them orgasm is the mention of Igbo and Biafra. For a very long time people have been ignoring Kayode even with his huge 1.3 million followers on X. Today, he wants to trend using Igbo.

Fani Kayode has accused the Igbo people of supporting Israel against Gaza. Ndi Igbo did not take a side in the Israeli-Gaza war. No Igbo group leader has commented on this war. IPOB on the other hand has not supported anyone, rather they asked them to end the bloodshed. So where is Femi Fani Kayode getting his accusation from?

Every Igbo man certainly reserved the right to have an opinion on the ongoing Gaza-Israeli war, just as a Yoruba has the same right. Many individual Yoruba are standing with Isreal on this war, but Femi Fani Kayode ignored them and made Igbo people his point of banter.

It should be noted that Femi Fani Kayode has on many occasions supported the Isreal war against Gaza. During the time the late Abba Kyari sent him to infiltrate PDP, he facilitated his deception of PDP members with hàte posts on Muslims, Fulani, Islam and support for Israel. FFK was so brutal in his attack on APC that PDP under Goodluck Jonathan made him their campaign manager. He even vowed over his dead body will he ever go back to APC. Brothers and sisters, today he is back to APC from whence he came. He fooled Ohaneze with a handshake across the Niger. An APC agent in PDP.

What FFK is good at is being used for dirty jobs. They use him as an attack dog and he plays it nicely. But it seems he is no longer getting the attention of the people. It is almost a year since President Tinubu took over the office but gave nothing to FFK even after he was used to lead a dirty campaign against ndi Igbo. We have not forgotten how he spoke down on the Labour Party governorship candidate in Lagos just because his mother is Igbo. Same Femi Fani Kayode has sons whose mothers are also Igbo.

I see FFK as a failed politician. He can't win an election. He serves as an attack dog for politicians and political parties. He is only God for appointments. But unfortunately, after the appointment he got under President Obasanjo, he has gotten none till today. He was even ignored by Tinubu. They just don't trust him. This is a man Obasanjo said if you give him food he will sing your praises. No wonder a journalist once asked him who was bankrolling him.

Today, such a personality has the effrontery to accuse more than 70 million Igbo people.

Can someone please inform FFK that he can't use Ndi Igbo to revive his failed political ambition?

We as Ndi Igbo have our problems facing us. We have been kïlled more than Palestinians. Nigeria cum Britain starved our people to death to the tune of 3.5 million people. Recently lots of Igbo youths have been killed in Imo State and more than a million houses burnt by the soldiers. Why should we as Igbo people leave these atrocities in our land to talk about the one between Israel and Palestine?

FFK can support Palestinians against Israel without bringing Ndi Igbo into it.

TEN UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTHS ABOUT NIGERIA
1. The system is designed in a way that rewards criminality, ensuring the worst rule over the best.
2. Poverty is weaponized. The hardship in this country is very intentional.
3. Fulanis are not indigenous to Nigeria but they have managed to politically swallow up/dominate the Hausas.
4. Since the 4th republic, someone from the Middlebelt cannot represent the North politically. A Fulani Muslim must always be the number one pick for Northern presidency.
5. Southerners from the former Bendel/Eastern region (Esan, Efik, Igbo, Isoko etc) & most Middlebelt groups like Takum, Igala, Jukun, Tiv etc.. dare not dream of ever attaining presidency.
6. The major purpose of the Nigerian Army & Police Force is to subjugate & control the South.
7. Islamization agenda is real.
8. The North is the biggest beneficiary of unitary Nigeria.
9. Half of the “Niger Delta” is actually Igboland. “SE” is only half of Igboland. State creation was the mechanism behind this.
10. Indigenous Lagosians (including the Eguns) have been sidelined & dominated by hinterland Yorubas who migrated to Lagos state.

In these @fijnigeria videos, IBD Dende, the most notorious smuggler in the South West, can be seen threatening to kill a Customs officer who seized his smuggled goods.

The officer he would have harmed had he not been restrained is an Assistant Superintendent of Customs.

Some puzzling points about these videos:

1.Despite wielding guns, all the Customs officers in the footage can be seen pacifying Dende. Why? Same trigger-happy Customs? "All the Customs officers with guns you see in those videos are his boys," one source told FIJ.

2.Dende can also be seen bragging: “Ejigbunu is the one I called.” “Ejigbunu bring it [the smuggled goods] in. ‘Ejigbunu’ here is Hussein Ejigbunu, Comptroller, Federal Operations Unit Zone A. FIJ previously highlighted his role in the smuggling of unchecked items, including terrorist bicycles and tramadol, into northern Nigeria.

3. Dende can be seen ordering the receiver at the other end of the phone: “Call Wale, call Wale.” The said 'Wale' is Bashir Adewale Adeniyi, a Member of the Order of the Federal Republic (MFR) and current Comptroller-General of Customs (CGC)!

4. Dende questioned the Customs officer for not stopping their bosses’ trailers of rice being smuggled in from Seme. Confirms what I’ve always said: senior Customs officers are among Nigeria’s biggest smugglers.
