Fellow Nigerians, good morning.
I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you.
Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry daily—the private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances.
We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the people—a society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal.
More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism.
We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishness—a system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power.
Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise.
Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them.
However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building.
Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in one’s own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated.
And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions.
There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline?
Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from.
Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all.
A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO
THE GREATEST OBIDIENTS, KINDLY RETWEET MASSIVELY TILL IT GETS TO THE APPROPRIATE QUARTERS... This guy has said it all, I have nothing more to add. God bless you my brother
1.BOLA AHMED TINUBU WAS IN SDP(SOCIAL DEMOCRATIC PARTY) IN 1992.
2.BOLA AHMED TINUBU WAS IN AD(ALLIANCE FOR DEMOCRACY) IN 1999
3.BOLA AHMED TINUBU WAS IN AC(ACTION CONGRESS) IN 2007
4.BOLA AHMED TINUBU WAS IN ACN(ACTION CONGRESS OF NIGERIA) IN 2011.
5.BOLA AHMED TINUBU JOINED APC (ALL PROGRESSIVES CONGRESS) IN 2014.
The same Tinubu used 3 deputy governors in 8 years, he couldn't tolerate the excceses and shortcomings of one deputy for 8 years.
This is to those of you saying Peter Obi moves from one party to another. Why didn't Tinubu contested under SDP in 1998 and why can't he fix the problem in AD when he left in 2007. He formed AC to counter AD, why did he move to ACN again?
It is a pity that your obsession with Peter Obi won't let you people know that your own house is leaking too!!! BEFORE YOU THROW MUD AT PETER OBI, PLS WATCH YOUR HANDS!!! The greatest Obidients, I need 3k reposts till it gets to the Jagabandits pls.
Peter Obi’s NADECO tweet is a powerful atomic bomb. It went straight to its target & nuked everywhere. That tweet pain dem well well.
It scattered their entire mandate camp.
He nuked the only remaining flex they’ve been managing. What else is there except disturbing our peace with a so-called bogus claim of June 12? Now there is nothing left for them to hold on to. He should always talk about June 12 People. He should always talk about NADECO.
He punctured holes in their bogus story, & e dey pain dem. They were living in a bubble. Now they are in meltdown. Peter Obi the remaining mandate they were managing. Tinubu is not a living testimony. Maybe he is one to losers & lowlifes. Fake democrat can no longer pretend.
NADECO supremo suspended a democratically elected governor. He compromised INEC & the Judiciary. The so-called Hero of Democracy has Abacha’s bagmen in his pocket & inner circle.
He criminalized protests & weaponized the DSS & the ICPC against the Opposition. They can never distract us from the colossal failure he is.
That has been weighed, he’s been measured & found wanting. He will be defeated & thrown out next year. No Jupiter on earth can stop it!
Before AIT deletes this tweet,
Please retweet this post and take a screenshot for the world to see that Nafiu Bala resigned as at Aug2025 and there was ZERO controversies about his resignation UNTIL someone sinister decided to later use him to forment chaos in the ADC.
@Dacosta150@PeterObi The fairer our elections become, the more voter apathy will be reduced. What is wrong with curbing out loopholes, let's implement what Nigerians are asking for. Let the vote of Nigerians count.
