[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

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 house in itself is your asset, the yearly rent is your profits, you can decide today to sell the house in a price higher than that 90m and you’ll keep your money

So the idea of building house for rent is not to make the money you use in building the house immediately, it’s so that you can have a passive income while your asset which is the house is still intact and you can decide whether to sell it anytime or not if you wish

[Biggest Mack @Big_Mck]

See the Peter Obi people are advising to hire PR. It’s clear that many people who follow this man don’t even know him. This was him in 2014, just after leaving office as governor.

[MrBanks💰 @Mrbankstips]

Marriage isn’t built on love alone, it’s built on character, patience and the ability to navigate life when things get ugly. Before you say ‘I do,’ ask yourself: can I trust this person in my weakest hour? Can they carry weight, not just share joy?

My brother, love is sweet, but after 5–15 years, what will hold your home together won’t be butterflies. It will be respect, shared values and how both of you handle life’s storms. You’ll see sides of each other you never imagined, in sickness, stress, disappointment, even in silence. Ask yourself now: ‘Can I grow old with this person? Can I still laugh with them when money is low? Can I still trust them when beauty fades and pressure sets in?

Marriage is not just about how you feel today, it’s about how you both evolve. Choose someone whose madness you can manage, whose peace matches your storm and whose loyalty won’t shift with time.

If GMOs were a good thing, Africa would be the last continent to get it.

[Maliq @MasterMaliq]

Do you know over 300,000 farmers died by suicide in India in the 2000s?
They were promised GMO seeds would end their poverty. But the seeds came with a trap. You had to keep buying them every year, along with fertiliser and pesticides. When the crops failed and debt piled up, many drank the same chemicals they were told would save their farms.

Now they are pushing the same seeds that most of Europe refuses to grow, and they are pushing them in Africa. Our leaders will sign the deals. But it’s the farmers who’ll carry the coffin. If countries like France and Germany rejected it, why is it being dumped in Africa?
Think.

This life is funny. It is good to put privilege into context.

Some of you have never entered Danfo before because your parents' driver drive you around, while others have to jump buses with their parents and even lap their younger one so the fare would suffice.

Some of you don't know what it means for school fees to not be paid. You just find yourself going to school whenever school resumes and then vacation to London in summer. Others have to be embarrassed in the presence of their friends and watch their parents continually beg the principal for grace time.

Se of you know where your future is headed even in SS1. Your parents have told you that you're going to Covenant for your first degree, after which you get a Masters at the London School of Economics. Others have to first focus on the cheapest school and catchment area to increase their chances of admission and actually staying in school.

Some of you get up to N300k monthly as allowance while other get N20k and "remember the child of whom you are, remember the home you come from."

Some of you can afford to fail. There is financial might to back you up. If you fail, you try again. You can even try something else, and it would be funded. Others cannot afford to fail. They need to succeed at all cost to break the cycle of poverty. They also have siblings looking up to them because investment in you means taking over your parents' responsibility to help with your siblings' welfare.

Privileges blinds because it is the nature of privileges to blind.
- Chimamanda Adichie

You'll not understand poverty if you've never lived it.

[Sir Dickson @Wizarab10]

This Coalition is not exciting, just necessary. The new members of the ADC are not suddenly saints like some of you are pushing. History will not forget them nor cleanse them. But then, you don't take a knife to a gun fight.

Those people are not doing it out of love for Nigeria or Nigerians. They are mostly aggrieved to not be eating from the table. But like they say, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. The problem now is that this newfound friendship have to dine with very short spoon no matter how devilish the friends are. This is largely because they are all cutting deals for themselves. These people are going to want ministerial positions from whoever emerges as flagbearer.

We want Peter Obi. So, we are forced to accept the political warmongers into the team to win an election. He is the only one among the members of that coalition that can hold a candle to the government.

If the people cannot trust their government to do the job for which it exists – to protect them and to promote their common welfare – all else is lost. That is why the fight against corruption is the biggest fight of our time.
- Barack Obama

Sometimes, you have to work with people you wouldn't wanna eat with. It is the opportunity cost in politics. There is always a price to pay, and if this is the price to oust APC, then it is what it is. But this will only work if PETER OBI emerges as Flag bearer.

The price for this freedom at times has been high, but we have never been unwilling to pay that price

It still doesn't shake the feeling that I know the people I want in Ministerial and Ambassadorial positions, and they look more like Akinwumi Adesina, Yemi Osinbajo, NOI(someone she recommends), not El-Rufai, Dino Melaye, Dalung or Aregbesola. The game is the game. In this game, Peter Obi has to emerge.

The only thing I have to add to Nigeria's internal political conversation concerning 2027 is this:

Whether the vehicle you people eventually agree on is Peter Obi or Atiku or coalition or whatever, you must prepare to carry out strategic violence. Because casting votes alone will not remove Jabba The Hutt from that office. Voting is only 35% of the job, and the ruling puppets have NO INTENTION of respecting your "votes." I can tell you that for free.

You have my word.

Whatever melodrama they are staging is for the sole purpose of sucking you into doing a live-action repeat of 2023 when you won the election and lost the objective of the election - to remove cancer called APC from Aso Rock. The last election that this APC pestilence won in Nigeria was 10 years ago. They did not win in 2019, and they certaintly did not win in 2023. It made no difference. So if you want to reclaim Nigeria from these flesh-eating bacteria, you have to make the vote meaningful by adding strategic violence to back it up.

That's what the Ghanaians did last year and I gained a new level of respect for them. No unnecessary social media cho cho cho, no Twitter spaces, no fiery newspaper columns, no noise whatsoever. I was in Addis Ababa during the Ghanaian election monitoring it closely, and I feared it would play out like 2023 in Nigeria - one result at the polling booth, a different result at the collation centre, a fraudulent announcement, and ultimately a fraudulent court judgment and then everybody grumbles and goes home.

Instead, these Ghanaians that you see smiling and bantering with you on the TL (very silent and deadly people by the way) had created offline networks and closed groups to carry out strategic enforcement of their electoral will on election night. They were prepared for everything - fake ballot papers that were pre-thumbprinted for the incumbents, incumbent party agents trying to bully collation centre operatives, even the incumbent party's efforts to manipulate the media narratives - all of these things were shut down with real physical violence where necessary.

Men properly collected that night.

And this is my key takeaway: when it became clear to the uniformed men with guns that it was either they side with the ruling party and risk causing an uncontrollable nationwide riot, or allow the will of the people prevail and still have a country tomorrow, they did the reasonable thing - because ultimately they are rational humans too. That is actually the key to winning the colonial bullshit we call "elections" in Africa.

You have to give the uniformed gun-holders a reason to recognise your victory, and force them to make a decision.

Nobody in Nigeria gave them that decision to make in 2023, and that's why Jabba The Hutt is your president. So if you actually want anything to change in 2027, be more like the Ghanaians. Less cho cho cho, fewer Twitter spaces about obvious things that everybody already knows, no public platforms to expose your plans to the whole world so they can neutralise them, less impotent fire breathing, less waiting aimlessly for Tinubu's FBI files that you will not do anything with when they come out, and more silent, controlled, and methodical violence. No need for noise. Just action.

That is the only way you won't waste your time and PVC in 2027. It's not by going on the internet and using Peter Obi's name as a talisman or engagement bait. My job is to tell you the truth.

Whether you choose to listen is up to you entirely.

Let me tell a story. The reason why my dad told his umuboy's that before bringing him an IV after settlement is that you must have bought a land or built a house here or in the village is this. My dad was one of those igbo men who came into Abuja early after serving his brotherh

[Aji Bussu Onye Mpiawa azụ 🇨🇮 @AfamDeluxo]

All because of politics.”

Yet politics is the reason some of you may never see your cousins, friends, or loved ones again because they had to migrate just to survive.

Politics is why your kids might grow up without ever forming real relationships with their extended family because everyone is scattered across continents, chasing stability.

Politics is the reason some of you left a 15-year banking career, uprooted your family, and moved to the UK with a wife and two kids, and now the pressure of japa is quietly breaking your marriage.

Politics is why some of you are single to stupor, not because you’re not lovable, but because even love needs a stable environment to grow, and Nigeria of today offers none.

Politics is why Indomie, the supposed food of broke students, has become a luxury.

Politics is why we have have OS pandemic all over the place.

Politics is why you that is reading this tweet and about to defend atrocious policies of Bola Tinubu is doing so using anonymous handle. You are so impoverished you can't even do it with your real face coz you gotta survive.

Nigerian Politics is not just about elections or debates, it’s the reason behind broken homes, stalled dreams, distance, depression, and diaspora. The list is endless.

And yet, when people raise their voices, you say, “All because of politics?”

Yes. Exactly because of politics. Irredeemable fools.
