There is no Nigerian politician that comes close to Mr Peter Obi, the guy is phenomenal.

[Iwarifgha @Iwarifgha1]

The other day i was arguing with someone about how books like 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad' are foolish to Nigerians at large.

One of the points i raised was that financial literacy cannot cover for systemic failures.

This is a prime example of the statement: “you cannot out-hustle a bad system.”

Imagine a loan was taken for this.

Aftermath March and March

[Preach Ojukwu 🇮🇪 @TrendfusionNG]

Dear Senator Henry Seriake Dickson @iamHSDickson

I write with genuine concern after your recent interview. Just weeks ago, I openly praised the strategic masterstroke that brought Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso together under the NDC banner.

That single move elevated a modest platform into a credible national vehicle with the potential to define Nigerian politics for decades. It was leadership of rare foresight, and it earned you quiet admiration across many circles.

Yet a diminished figure like Julius Abure, whose relevance has been sharply curtailed by the courts, managed to draw you into an emotional response.

By amplifying his letter, the interview inadvertently lent him oxygen and projected frustration toward the very movement that gave the NDC its sudden weight.

Your tone and choice of words particularly framing Peter Obi as a “so-called leader” risked framing you as reactive rather than statesmanlike.

A leader of your calibre does not need to descend to that level.

More importantly, Senator, consider what is truly at stake for you. The Obidient movement and Kwankwasiyya already possess organic national followership; they do not require the NDC to remain potent.

The NDC, however, required them to become a serious contender.

Should this alliance fracture under public recriminations, the movement will migrate to another vehicle with minimal long-term damage to Obi or Kwankwaso.

Their personal brands and follower bases are resilient. Yours, tied to the success of this new platform, is not.

You stand to lose the historic distinction of being the architect of a truly national party that could have outlasted this cycle- a legacy far larger than any momentary satisfaction from responding to a fading actor.

This is not a threat; it is a clear-eyed assessment. Imploding the NDC through words and visible irritation would hand @AbureJulius a pyrrhic victory while positioning you as the second major casualty.

Nigeria’s politics rarely forgives leaders who squander golden windows over ego or provocation.

You still hold the leverage to steer this differently. Rebuild trust through deliberate restraint and inclusive gestures.

Rise above the bait.

The same strategic brilliance that forged this alliance can now consolidate it. History will remember how you handled this moment -either as the man who built something enduring, or the one who let it slip over a single unnecessary interview.

Nigeria is watching, Senator. So are those who still believe in your potential to lead at this level.

Respectfully,
Dr Preach Ojukwu

So bcos you support Peter Obi or kwankwaso on twitter, that means they must carry ticket and give you.

And when you don’t get it, Peter Obi becomes a bad person.

Go and join APC, and see whether you’d even smell ticket. You think Dayo, Dipo, Reno, et al, don’t have ambition?

Bashir Ahmad that was Buhari’s yansh cleaner, did not get ticket, even with Buhari in power.

Tinubu’s own ministers resigned, and did not get ticket in APC.

So what makes you feel you deserve ticket, simply because you’re an Obidient or kwankwasiya?

Power is not served à la carte.

[Aku N’esi Obi Ike (I) @Kasieobi_1]

1. Atiku Abubakar is broke (full stop).

2. He was financially decimated by Buhari, who wanted to ensure he would no longer have a large war chest to fund an election.

3. Buhari achieved this through Hadiza Usman, who frustrated Intels, a company co-owned by Atiku.

4. In 2021, Atiku sold his shares in Intels and used the money to run in the 2023 PDP primary election. Gov. Wike made sure Atiku spent big in PDP primaries by paying $30,000 per delegate.

5. Atiku who was fully extorted, needed a sitting governor to open his state treasury to co-fund his 2023 campaign, and Gov. Okowa came in handy.

6. Records show that Gov. Okowa borrowed N30,000,000,000 from three banks, Zenith Bank, UBA, and Access Bank. That was the money used for Atiku’s presidential campaign in 2023.

6b. EFCC records shows that Okowa could not show which project swallowed the last minute loan he took from 3 banks in 2022 using Delta state allocation as security.

7. Atiku’s remaining businesses, like America a university of Nigeria, Adama Beverage Limited, Gotel Communications, and Prodeco Nigeria Limited, cannot provide Atiku with the funds needed for the 2027 election, so he's looking for another “Okowa.” Sadly, that option is now limited.

8. Atiku has 25 voracious children waiting for food to be ready. Potential 25 Seyi Tinubu’s. Can Nigeria survive it? No!

9. Bottom line is: what we've seen Tinubu do will be child’s play compared to what Atiku will do if he becomes president.

10. A man who’s badly financially decimated and damaged, who has sold many assets and liquidated numerous businesses in his quest for the presidency, will first recover his investments before doing anything else.

11. If Tinubu, with Lagos treasury in his hands, is still hustling and scavenging the nation like a hungry vulture, imagine what Atiku will do.

12. Peter Obi remains Nigeria’s only real option. He's not broke. He's not hungry. He will not thief up your money.

13. This cannot be said about Atiku and Tinubu.

14. May God save us from Atiku and Tinubu.

To all lovers of good governance and discerning Nigerians:

This article was not written by an independent, objective foreign journalist sitting in a high-rise office in New York. It comes directly from Ruth Olurounbi - a freelance writer who routinely sells her commentary and opinions to various domestic and international outlets, ranging from Al Jazeera to local dailies like the Tribune. She is deeply embedded in the local political environment, and her writing carries the heavy scent of partisan interests.

Even the picture she chose reveals her clear intentions. Instead of using a neutral, professional, or statesmanlike headshot of Peter Obi, she intentionally selected a tense, strained, downward-looking image. This is a deliberate editorial tactic designed to subliminally plant a negative, anxious impression in your mind before you even read her words.

Do not let international branding trick you into accepting local political hatchet jobs as gospel truth. This is a partisan narrative hidden behind a global masthead, and it deserves to be completely discredited.

As an analyst, I have done my work, and I want to make the reality completely clear so you are not deceived by an inherently biased write-up from a Nigerian thinking it is Bloomberg.

Peter Obi has the right to run for election now as a Southerner. And if we must blame any opposition politician for fragmentation, it is Atiku - who is not ready to wait for the Northern turn and forced his way in when it is currently the time for only Southerners to run. Therefore, Ruth Olurounbi is blaming the wrong person, for reasons best known to her.

[Field Marshal of the Han Dynasty @General_Oluchi]

When we called out the maniac president, you people said, “he’s only after undocumented people! If you have your papers, you won’t be bothered.” “Why didn’t you come the right way???” Nigerians carried it on their head like Gala.

Now, you that came the right way is also on the chopping block!

All I know is that you selfish and dark-hearted people all deserve everything happening to you! Go back to your country and wait like the others!

State visits by Leaders are not tourism, and diplomacy is not a fashion parade. Every foreign trip undertaken by a government must deliver measurable benefits to the people, including investments, technology transfer, trade agreements, factory expansion, industrial partnerships, and job creation.

During President Trump’s recent visit to China, the American delegation reportedly included a few top government officials, and many of the biggest figures in global business and technology:
Consequently, huge trade deals worth several billion dollars including about 200 Boeing orders were achieved.
The list of the entourage included

1. Donald J. Trump – President of the United States
2. Marco Rubio – Secretary of State
3. Pete Hegseth – Secretary of Defence
4. Elon Musk – CEO, Tesla & SpaceX
5. Jensen Huang – CEO, Nvidia
6. Tim Cook – CEO, Apple
7. Larry Fink – CEO, BlackRock
8. Stephen Schwarzman – CEO, Blackstone
9. Kelly Ortberg – CEO, Boeing
10. Brian Sikes – CEO, Cargill
11. Jane Fraser – CEO, Citigroup
12. Larry Culp – CEO, General Electric
13. David Solomon – CEO, Goldman Sachs
14. Sanjay Mehrotra – CEO, Micron Technology
15.Cristiano Amon – CEO, Qualcomm
16. Dina P. McCormick – President of Meta
17. Ryan McInerney – CEO, Visa
18. Michael Miebach – President, Mastercard
19. Jim Anderson – CEO, Coherent
20. Jacob Thaysen – CEO, Illumina

That is how serious nations approach diplomacy, by aligning foreign policy with economic expansion, industrial growth, innovation, and national productivity.

I hope that lessons can be learned from these recent visits comparing them with the President of Nigeria’s recent state visit to the United Kingdom.

A large entourage of politicians, aides, and government officials travelled, yet Nigerians are still asking a simple question: what exactly did Nigeria bring home?

Which factories are coming to Nigeria?
What power, technology, manufacturing, agricultural, or industrial agreements were secured?
How many direct jobs will this visit create for Nigerian youths?
What investments were attracted?
What measurable economic outcomes can the ordinary Nigerian point to?
The delegation reportedly included:
1. President Bola Tinubu
2. Senator (Mrs) Tinubu
3.12 governors
4.9 ministers
5.7 members of the National Assembly
6. Over 20 senior State House staff
7. Over 30 security personnel
8. Over 10 domestic staff
9. Several supporters and associates

It is not enough to ride horses, wear matching uniforms, attend royal banquets, and release glossy photographs. Symbolism without substance cannot feed hungry citizens.

Today, Nigeria is in decline, battling serious insecurity, food insecurity, unemployment, a weakened naira, declining industrial productivity, and worsening poverty.
At a time when millions of Nigerians struggle daily to afford food and survive economic hardship, every kobo spent on foreign trips must produce tangible national value: investments, factories, jobs, exports, infrastructure, and economic opportunities.

Nigeria needs leadership that is focused less on optics and more on productivity; less on ceremony and more on measurable economic results.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

If there is any uproar we need to have in Nigeria, it
should be about the marginalization of those living
outside their states of origin. When Akpabio
returns from South Africa, he should come and
remove the cloak in the eyes of Nigerians. Our
lives matter too

This is my personal one-month tax contribution to
the Lagos State Government for March 2026. I
cannot pay this money to the Akwa lbom State
Government; I am mandated to pay it to Lagos
State. Yet in the same Lagos where I pay these
taxes, someone from lbadan, Ogun, Ondo, or Ekiti
who pays zero taxes, will come out to tell me it is
wrong if I am sent for government training with tax
payers money:

If I were paying taxes in a sane society, I should
even be entitled to salaries from the government if
I lose my job. But here, we pay for nothing, and
some people will still say I cannot benefit from
government programs because my surname is not
Adekoya, Ajayi, or Olusola.

If Nigeria is not ready for true federalism, let us
know, so that everyone will pay taxes to their own
state and demand benefits from their
representatives there. We cannot only read the
constitution when it comes to taxing us, but
suddenly be told to be "sensitive" when it comes to
enjoying benefits. So charging me huge taxes isn't
insensitive, but asking for benefits is?

If you live anywhere in Nigeria and believe a citizen
does not deserve government benefits simply
because his parents aren't from that city, you are
worse than those displaying xenophobia in South
Africa. The finger you point at South Africa is
pointing back at you.

How many of you so-called Yoruba people are
paying taxes in Lagos State? How many? I wake up
every day in rain and sunshine to go to work, taxing
myself and ensuring that the Lagos State
Government is funded.

Yet you, contributing nothing, think you are more
deserving simply because you bear a Yoruba
surname. Iku pa e. Bring your tax certificate or
pank alert here, let's see what you actually
contribute to the state.
