SOWORE BEING SENT TO PRISON: A DANGEROUS REGRESSION FOR OUR DEMOCRACY
I have received, with deep concern, the news of the court’s remand of citizen activist Omoyele Sowore in Kuje Prison.
While the judiciary remains the ultimate arbiter of justice, we must consistently guard against any trend that gives the appearance of state institutions being weaponised to systematically stifle dissent, muzzle the press, or shrink the legitimate space for civic engagement in Nigeria.
A thriving democracy does not survive on the silencing of opposing voices; rather, it is anchored on the robust protection of fundamental human rights, most notably the freedoms of expression and peaceful assembly, as enshrined in our Constitution. Moreover, our society is already strained by insecurity and biting economic hardship; therefore, deliberate steps should be taken, even by the courts, to avoid inflaming the situation.
When we begin to treat citizen critics, activists, and journalists as threats to state survival rather than as partners in building accountability, we signal a dangerous slide toward authoritarianism. Our current challenges, ranging from economic strain to internal security vulnerabilities, require inclusive dialogue and cohesive nation-building, not the incarceration of those who demand a better society.
I urge the relevant authorities to ensure that the rule of law is strictly adhered to, that Mr. Sowore’s constitutional rights are fully protected, and that our security and judicial institutions are used solely for the impartial administration of justice. We cannot build a New Nigeria if we continue to undermine the very democratic structures meant to protect us all. -PO

“Fuel Importers Were Losing Their Market To Dangote, Then Eventually They Found a Loophole…Dangote Sells Fuel Cheaper To Foreign Traders Than To Nigerian Marketers, So They Go To Togo, Buy The Same Dangote Fuel, And Ship It Back To Nigeria. And Even After Shipping Costs, It’s Still N65 Cheaper Per Litre. Between March-May 2026, 70-80% Of Fuel Imported By Sea Was Dangote Fuel That Left Nigeria And Came Back. But Why Is Nigerian Fuel Cheaper To Buy From Togo?”.
These Police Officers just parked me at Bolade, Oshodi, pointed guns at me, and forced me to transfer N100,000 them. When my bank app showed "exceeded transfer limit", they dragged me to a nearby POS to do it with my card.
They initially demanded 150k each.
They were 4 in number.
These are the names I could copy:

I may not agree with those who publicly support APC but i respect them. They’re supporting their candidate loudly with their full chest. The people who irritate me the most are those who claim they don’t have any candidate. We all know who you’re supporting, you’re just a coward.
