1. In 1999 Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT lied under oath in his @inecnigeria form CF001 when he claimed to have attended The University of Chicago @UChicago & Govt College Ibadan. But the attached notarised document 1 proves beyond reasonable doubts that Tinubu lied under oath

In His Passion, Jesus Christ suffered greatly for the sins of man. He wore the crown of thorns, was scourged at the pillar, and had the Five Holy Wounds inflicted upon Him. While most Catholics know of these, few are familiar with the shoulder wound of Jesus, and the miraculous story behind its devotion.
Tradition says as Jesus walked the three miles from Pontius Pilate’s courtyard to His Crucifixion at Calvary, the Cross dug through His shoulder
ripping flesh from bone. According to a pious legend, Saint Bernard of Clairvaux prayed and asked of Christ what was his greatest unknown suffering, and what wound suffered in His Passion was most painful. Christ replied to him:

“I had on My Shoulder while I bore My Cross on the Way of Sorrows, a grievous Wound which was more painful than the others, and which is not recorded by men.”
Christ asked that Saint Bernard and other members of the Faithful keep a devotion to his shoulder wound, and that those who do will receive God’s grace.
“Honor this Wound with thy devotion, and I will grant thee whatsoever thou dost ask through its virtue and merit. And in regard to all those who shall venerate this Wound, I will remit to them all their venial sins, and will no longer remember their mortal sins.”

Saint Bernard heeded Christ’s call, composing a beautiful devotional prayer to honor the shoulder wound of Our Savior:

“O Loving Jesus, Meek Lamb of God, I, a miserable sinner, salute and worship the most Sacred Wound of Thy Shoulder on which Thou didst bear Thy heavy Cross, which so tore Thy Flesh and laid bare
Thy Bones as to inflict on Thee an anguish greater than any other wound of Thy Most Blessed Body. I adore Thee, O Jesus most sorrowful; I praise and glorify Thee and give Thee thanks for this most sacred and painful Wound, beseeching Thee by that exceeding pain and by the crushing burden of Thy heavy Cross, to be merciful to me, a sinner, to forgive me all my
mortal and venial sins and to lead me on towards Heaven along the Way of Thy Cross. Amen.”
While Saint Bernard was the first to venerate the shoulder wound, he was not the last. Saint Padre Pio kept a devotion and also suffered the same wound himself as a stigmata. When Pope Saint John Paul II was still a priest he visited Padre Pio and asked him which wound was his most painful. Father Wojtyła expected that it was his chest wound, but the saint replied:
“It is my shoulder wound, which no one knows about and has never been cured
or treated.”
Prior to his death, Padre Pio confided to Brother Modestino Fucci at his friary in San Giovanni Rotondo that his greatest pains happened when took off his shirt. At the time, Fucci believed it to be his chest wounds much like John Paul II. When he was later assigned the task of inventorying all the items inside the cell of the late Padre Pio, he noticed his undershirts had blood stains on the right shoulder.
That night, Brother Fucci prayed asking Padre Pio for a sign if he truly bore the shoulder wound of Christ. At 1 A.M., he awoke with an excruciating pain in his right shoulder and the room was filled the aroma of flowers, the sign Padre Pio’s spiritual presence, and he heard a voice call out: “This is what I had to suffer!”

We grieve with business mogul, Paul Onwuanibe whose multimillion-dollar Landmark beach resort properties were demolished in Lagos. The pain runs deep and unexplainable, yet within it lies a brave heart. To upcoming landlords, learn from this sad event and apply wisdom.

Dear @aonanuga1956,
It may interest you to know that recent statistics reveal that approximately 63% of the Nigerian population—translating to roughly 141 million citizens—lives in abject poverty.

Nigeria's headline inflation stands at 15.93%, with food inflation at 16.96%.

Since this administration took office in May 2023, fuel (PMS) prices have surged by approximately 440% to over 600%, jumping from about ₦198–₦238 to between ₦1,075 and ₦1,596 per litre. Cooking gas (LPG) prices have increased by 95% to over 300%, rising from around ₦872 per kilogram to between ₦1,100 and ₦1,650.

Nigeria is 4th worldwide in the Global Terrorrism Index (GTI), ranking 142nd out of 143 countries in the Rule of Law Index sub-indicator.

According to the July 2026 IMF Article IV Consultation Report, ₦8.8 trillion in public expenditures (roughly 2% of Nigeria's GDP) was executed off-budget or remained unrecorded in official statutory frameworks. This administration is running a parallel economy that is warehousing Illicit funds to compromise the 2027 General Elections.

I hope President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will read this and accept that the policies of this government are crushing ordinary Nigerians. The primary responsibility of any government is the security and welfare of its citizens.

He specifically named Boko Haram.

I repeat, he specifically named Boko Haram as a recipient of US intelligence funding.

I have nothing further to say. My work here is done.

CAF should kuku let the Maghrib have its own cup of nations open only to North Africans so that the rest of us can have our AFCON back.

Burkina Faso hosted and didn't win, nothing happened.
Nigeria & Ghana hosted and didn't win, nothing happened.
Mali hosted and didn't win, nothing happened.
Ghana hosted and didn't win, nothing happened.
Angola hosted and didn't win, nothing happened.
Ditto Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, South Africa, Cameroon.

Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda will host in 2027, they won't win, and nobody will die.

But once a North African team hosts, they have to win it or else the sky will fall down?

They should form their own confederation and let us hear word abeg. They need us much more than we need them anyway.

This is why Nigerian fraudsters were described in that Rick & Morty episode as "the galaxy's most ambitious, least successful con artists."

You developed a whole scheme to defraud the US president via crypto and you actually succeeded halfway, but your big getaway car afterward was to transfer the funds to your Binance wallet that has all the KYC of a bank account.

Ducking retard.

In 2005, David Beckham opened his football academy in Greenwich, London.

Among the young footballers there that day was an 11 year old boy named Harry Kane.

Standing beside him was Katie Goodland, a girl he had known since their school days in East London.

They posed for a photograph with Beckham.

At the time, it was simply a picture of two children meeting one of England's biggest football stars.

Harry and Katie could never have known what the next two decades would bring.

The childhood friends grew closer, began dating as teenagers, and built a life together.

Harry kept chasing football.

He rose through Tottenham's academy, endured loan spells, fought for his place, and eventually became one of the greatest goalscorers England has ever produced.

In 2018, he captained England at the World Cup and won the Golden Boot.

In 2023, he broke Wayne Rooney's record to become England men's all time leading goalscorer.

And the girl standing beside him in that old photograph stayed beside him through the journey.

Harry proposed to Katie in 2017.

They married in June 2019 and went on to build a family together, becoming parents to four children.

Years after that photograph was taken, Harry even joked that Beckham was probably Katie's childhood crush.

But life had written a different story.

The boy who once stood beside his football hero became England captain.

And the girl standing next to him became his wife.

Sometimes, an ordinary photograph is only ordinary because we haven't seen the future yet

In case the situation is unclear to Ghanaians, your president has just publicly signalled that he is stepping into Kwame Nkrumah's shoes.

The usual suspects will not be happy, and the Ghanaian people will be the first targets. You will start witnessing strange events aimed at making him unpopular, just like with Nkrumah.

Strange high profile accidents. Arson attacks. Public infrastructure sabotage. Fake news campaigns. Maybe even a terror attack.

Nothing is off the table for the DGSE-CIA-MI6-Mossad operators who attended the Accra Reset and sat there furiously taking notes and squeezing their faces as he vowed to stop export of raw materials from Ghana by 2030.

This is not a drill.

There was a reason Colombians did everything humanly possible to ensure Pablo Escobar didn’t get into a political post.

There was a reason Mexicans fought hard to ensure that El Chapo didn’t get hold of power.

Only one country, somewhere in Africa, failed the world and made the African version of the (above) two men their leader.✍️

Since we're gushing about Benin and its amazing roads, let me inform all of you that Patrice Talon is currently in the process of approving the sale of a part of Benin to a consortium of billionaire racist bros led by Peter Thiel, for them to build a private sovereign city with its private own laws and police, which will not be subject to the laws of Benin or the African Union.

It is called Prospera Africa and it is meant to follow the template of the same project funded by the same people in Central America called Prospera Honduras. If you Google what Prospera Honduras uses its sovereignty to do, you'll see the commercial investment into it is primarily for the purpose of "Biotechnology", i.e drug testing and human experimentation that would be extremely illegal anywhere there is an actual government.

These racist billionaire bros are trying to build a sovereign colony in Benin where they can legally experiment on Africans and do whatever other Epstein Island activities that eventually got them into a dispute with the government in Honduras. It's called Prospera Africa. Google it, it's not hard to find.

Take this very seriously. It is not something a little birdie told me - I myself almost ended up working on this project a couple of years ago before I started to understand what it was and who was behind it.

When you're done congratulating Patrice Talon for his smooth roads, please beg him not to give Peter Thiel an Epstein Island in West Africa for Elon Musk's friends to legally use Africans as live experiments.

Thank you.
