Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar will need to go back to the drawing board to draw up another seductive campaign promise after listening to this interrogation by Osifo, ex-Pengassan chief, of his unrealistic subsidy-return plan

Too many Obidients have no way of engaging issues beyond insults and curses.
Watch how they handled Timi Dakolo. They could simply have disagreed with him. Instead, they went after his wife. It did not matter that the matter they dragged her into is traumatic enough for her and for the family.
When they disagree with you, nothing is off limits. Nothing. And this is their way, not some exceptional behaviour by the person who started it. How you’d know is the way the rest of them are justifying it. They have no sense of justice.
They aren’t called the headless mob for nothing. I can’t see the future but I know one thing for sure, they will lose again in January. And they will cry harder than ever.
Peter Obi asked for 1 clip where he said he will never leave APGA and he was shocked to be shown more than 2.
This is the shenanigan who wants to be president
The Gift and the Burden of Leadership.
As someone who has spent a lifetime studying politics, leadership, development, and the rise and fall of nations, I have come to appreciate that transformational leaders are rarely understood in the moment. They are often resisted before they are respected and doubted before they are celebrated.
That is why I remain convinced that we are following a man who is truly a gift to Nigeria.
What many see today as difficult reforms are, in fact, the laying of foundations for a productive nation capable of carrying not only its own weight but inspiring an entire continent.
Development has patterns. The world has seen it before.
Japan led the “Flying Geese” model that transformed Asia from a region of limited industrial capacity into a global production powerhouse. One economy took the lead, others followed, and prosperity spread across borders. China later accelerated that process and today stands as proof of what deliberate national planning can achieve.
Africa awaits its own moment.
I believe Nigeria is positioned to become that lead nation, and President @officialABAT understands this responsibility. The reforms are not merely about balancing accounts or correcting distortions; they are about preparing Nigeria to become the engine room of African growth, production, innovation, and opportunity.
When Nigeria succeeds, Africa benefits.
When Nigeria expands its productive capacity, attracts investment, builds infrastructure, strengthens institutions, and unlocks the creativity of its people, neighbouring nations will inevitably align themselves to the opportunities created by our progress.
That is why this moment matters.
Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is not asking Nigerians to manage decline; he is challenging us to build greatness. The journey is demanding, but the destination is worth the sacrifice.
If Nigeria succeeds on this path, history will accord him immense respect—not because he sought applause, but because he had the courage to do what was necessary when it mattered most.
The prosperity we seek is not a fantasy. It is on the horizon.
Our duty is to stay the course.

The Alternative.
The debate over fuel subsidy has once again exposed the need for Nigerians to carefully examine what every presidential candidate actually stands for, rather than relying on campaign rhetoric or political narratives.
Peter Obi has consistently said he supports removing the petrol subsidy. In 2023, he described the subsidy regime as unsustainable and said he would remove it if elected. He repeated that position in 2025 and again in August 2026, saying that mismanagement of the proceeds from subsidy removal should not be a reason to bring the subsidy back.
However, recent comments from his running mate, Rabiu Kwankwaso, have introduced another dimension to the debate, with Kwankwaso saying that a Peter Obi-led government would bring the subsidy back. Today, Peter Obi was reported to have said that, if elected, he would also return the subsidy.
That contradiction deserves a clear explanation from the opposition camp. The important question is not simply whether petrol should be cheaper. Nigerians deserve to know how any proposed subsidy would be financed, how it would be targeted, how corruption and leakage would be prevented, and what impact it would have on government revenue and other essential sectors.
President Tinubu’s administration made the hard decision to end the petrol subsidy, a policy that all the major presidential candidates in the 2023 election, including Peter Obi, had publicly supported in principle.
As we approach another election, Nigerians should therefore demand more than slogans. Every candidate should clearly explain what they intend to retain, reverse or change, and provide credible details on how their policies will be funded.
The future of Nigeria should not be reduced to the ambition of removing one political leader from office. What matters is the quality, consistency and practicality of the alternative being presented to Nigerians.
With all that said, Nigeria is better off with President Bola Tinubu’s presidency until 2031.

Sensible leaders don’t leave what is important because of a roll call at the #UNGA.
The Presidency is one institution. @KashimSM is Presidency enough for New York while President Tinubu focuses on other matters of strategic national importance.
Serious nations understand the difference between symbolism and substance. Governance is about outcomes, not attendance registers.
Nigeria was represented. Nigeria’s interests were protected. That is what matters.
Great nations focus on results. Great leaders focus on priorities.
All the bloggers in Nigeria are quiet over the great medical feat that happened at the REDEEMER'S HEALTH VILLAGE AT THE REDEMPTION CITY. This Facility was built by the Redeemed Christian Church Of God.
They are quick to drag the old man. God sees all of you.
The reason behind Lagos Traffic in the past 24 hours is so complex.
From inadequate road infrastructure to unworthy heavy duty vehicles and impatience.
Hope we do better as a people.
