"Helicopter pilots" on X have been analysing this landing.
I have been wondering how a landing is expected to be in a hostile combat situation.

This Portugal team doesn’t want success. It’s unbelievable

@officialokris @Tunde_OD @chessinslums When you were sending this foolish comment, your body no do you somehow? Did you ask Alex this foolish question? Even if Tunde supports APC, it’s his constitutional right to do so.

Cape Verde is made up of 10 different islands, and they're only about 500 km away from Senegal. So how can anyone claim that no one lived on the islands before the Portuguese arrived?

The Nigerian government has been very unserious about our borders and it reflects in the insecurities we suffering this days. Start to document foreigners in the country, it’s a shame we don’t have that with how porous our borders are

[Joseph Brendan @Joe_brendan_]

The Immigrants from Niger, Chad, Mali are not Jihadists.

They are skilled expats with contributions that can move the country forward

😂 Yesterday some people wanted to eat me raw.

Fact is, Nigeria MUST close its borders and become hostile to immigrants from Niger, Chad, Mali, Sudan, Burkina Faso and Northern Cameron

We MUST treat them as enemies as they are enemies. These people are mostly illiterates who recently found out they can own iPhones and motorbikes by kidnapping Nigerians and killing Nigerians

They are invading Hausa villages up North, resettling Nigerians and causing us to bleed our National treasure.

If the federal government does not take action then all the state governments in the South should begin the immediate sacking of these elements because you cannot continue to treat them with kids gloves.

Someone should Google the number of Hausa villages that's been displaced in Nigeria as of today by these useless immigrants from these useless countries. Google it and see.

We MUST refuse these people and treat them like a disease that they are.

@ragingbullfight Don’t be stupid, attacks on him and his activism is litter all over twitter. DYOR

[Ossy @osahonii]

Were your people possessed when they were hounding calling him bigoted and tribalist, for concentrating his effort in SW?

[Ossy @osahonii]

@ragingbullfight Oh please shut up! Twitter is littered with people hounding him. But yes I’m making up things. When he refused to acknowledge Obi didn’t they also hound him

[Ossy @osahonii]

There is absolutely no reason for the Israeli military to behave in such manner. They succeeded to alienate any sympathy the world had for them

[Parody Jeff @Parodyjeffx]

THIS IS SATANIC ✡️🇮🇱

An Israeli soldier throws a stun grenade into a car carrying a Palestinian family, trapping them inside to absorb the blast.

Reports confirm one of the children inside is now permanently blinded for life.

[Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA]

SA loves lecturing on human rights, but its "Rainbow Nation" is bleeding from violent xenophobia.

Instead of taking responsibility, Justice Minister @MamolokoKubayi falls back on the oldest hate.

While openly admitting she has "no evidence," she desperately spins wild conspiracies to mask government panic over a repeat of 2021.

Shameful scapegoating. No accountability.

In Nigeria's Benin City, artisans keep the ancient bronze-casting tradition alive, pouring molten bronze into clay moulds and building statues.

The craft, linked to the looted Benin Bronzes of 1897, is now back in global focus amid repatriation calls https://t.co/mAHRLNRDex

[Ossy @osahonii]

I though you were the better educated one? You googled top university in Nigeria and you think I schooled there or other schools in the country. No critical thinking that i might have schooled outside my country. Even if I schooled in Nigeria I’m certain I’m better educated than you are. Go get educated and maybe your eyes would be opened

[Ossy @osahonii]

@Salbahs_ @gabe_teee 😂 even if I schooled in Nigeria I certainly Recieved better education than you did. Talking of brainwashing, my friend you need to look into the mirror

[Ossy @osahonii]

Any exemption made for Muslims students would be extended to other religions too, you want to adorn your religious attires, I will send my wards kitted in olokun worship. If you don’t want neutrality then we will all be mad and be accommodated for

The Appeal Court ruling in Ibadan, against Hijab,in ISI, is again causing ruckus.

I am surprised anyways, there is another lower court ruling on Hijab, after the Supreme Court affirmation of June 2022 on the matter.

Now, let me say, i am not too bothered. ISI was established in 1963, with funding from International Donors. The land on which it sits was donated by the Western Region.

The University of Ibadan which maintains control of administration, management and board is a Federal University, owned by Federal Government of Nigeria.

The Supreme Court will hopefully lay it to rest, and re-emphasize the primacy of fundamental rights of Muslim girls to Hijab in schools, and work.

Last year when i wrote about the these matters,I was appealed to, that it was colonial-era missionaries who were whites who committed those historical infractions, and no "Yoruba natives" were involved. And that we should move on from the pains of those times and coalesce under the banner of "Yoruba Unity".

Seeing the news and reactions of some over this latest one has reaffirmed my earlier stand.

There are times when some without understanding history tend to burrow into matters left to cool down, to ensure peace.

Due to the early exclusive missionary influence on education, and requirement for conversion into Christianity to get access to literacy and education, the first set of elite produced in Yorubaland, in civil service, public policy , Justice Administration and politics were missionary trained.

Several of them took on public policies that became contentious when Muslims began emerging and requesting their interests be accommodated since they weren't there earlier.

The MSSN was started in 1954,at Ansarudeen Alakoro School Hall, to support Muslim students in Mission Schools being pressured to compromise their faith.

Its first Annual conference adopted the likes of Sir Ahmadu Bello, Alhaji Inuwa Wada, Professor Saburi Biobaku, Alhaja Humuani Alaga, Alhaji A.R.A Smith, Mrs H.M Shodeinde, Alhaji Tafawa Balewa as Patrons and Patronesses.

In 1959, the National Government under Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa granted holidays to Muslim students officially allowing them to observe the Eid for the first time in almost 70years.

Obafemi Awolowo's Free Education Programme is hailed today, but many don't know Christian Missionaries fiercely opposed the program initially.

This was because it directly threatened their absolute control of the education system in Yorubaland. They feared losing their religious influence, school autonomy to government control.

Education to missionaries was a tool of evangelisation, and government funded education was going to strip them of that.

Obafemi Awolowo's government together with Stephen Awokoya to correct some historical injustices against Muslims put up a Conscience Clause.

"Any school receiving government grants-in-aid was strictly forbidden from forcing Christian religious instruction on non-Christian pupils".

Awolowo's Free Education programme of 1955, was the first time Muslim children were not required to convert from their religion.

The vast majority of the civil service administrators were still missionary educated as at the 60's and 70's and regularly put up hoops infront of Muslims with their policies, and used government machinery to discomfort Muslims to convert.

One of the most damning examples is Bola Ige, Governor of Old Oyo State in 1979.

Under his government, some Muslim Schools were renamed, New Muslim schools refused accreditation while Missiomary were allowed. Distributed copies of the bible across the state and didn't do so for the Quran, and frustrated IRK teaching.

Those who feel the advantage they earlier had over Muslims, decades ago in public affairs is fast eroding, and needs curtailing, don't need to be appealed to.

They need to be confronted in the public space and defeated intellectual

Muslims are not 2nd class citizens in Yorubaland seeking for permission

[Ossy @osahonii]

What would Ajimobi done to a federal school? Lool
This issue has been dragged since 2010, when he was the governor what could he do?

[HI HEM JAY @IMJ5588]

The judge is a Christian, & the governor is also a Christian. So, what do you expect?

They couldn’t have tried this during Ajimobi’s tenure as governor.

I will keep saying this since the University of Ibadan was established in 1948, there has never been a Muslim ViceChancellor.

[Ossy @osahonii]

@Salbahs_ @gabe_teee Oh, I’m certain I’m better educated than you are when it comes to theology and the philosophy of religions. So yea, the Quran is a rip off of those books. Get educated

[Ossy @osahonii]

All faith based schools expect all students to attend their programs. You accept that when you join. So if you decide to go there you have to comply with their regulations

[Sodiq Alabi @OneSodiqAlabii]

Should a faith-based institution be allowed to force undergraduates to attend religious services? No.

I can anticipate your response. Yes, my objection extends to any Muslim-owned uni forcing students to use hijab or go to a mosque. This is all part of normalised abnormality.

[Ossy @osahonii]

@Arewadefender @dipoaina1 It’s is not a public school, it’s a private school one of the most expensive in Ibadan. How can it be tax funded and be that expensive . We have explained over and over again

[Ossy @osahonii]

@timsamuel123 @Arewadefender Na you get time dey explain

[Ossy @osahonii]

ISI is a separate entity from the university of Ibadan and as such is a private entity. It wasn’t founded with tax payers money.

[A.Y.O @YusufAsunmogejo]

Where does Islam stand in all of this?

Last night, I asked for the backstory to this ruling from the appellate court. And now, I understand the story better.

The Court of Appeal judgment to ban hijab at International School Ibadan, has restarted a heated debate. On one side, we want to defend our sisters' right to wear the hijab. On the other side, people argue that when you enroll, you signed a contract to follow the school rules. It feels like a trap really.

Do we stand up for our faith or respect institutional rules?

To get the full picture, we have to look at how Islam views agreements. Islam strictly commands us to honor our words. If you sign a code of conduct, you should keep it.

But an agreement must be built on honest terms. This is where the hypocrisy of the school lies. ISI sits on federal land and is owned by the University of Ibadan, which is a public university funded by taxpayers.

Yet, they claim a private status just to enforce a hijab ban. You cannot use public assets to deny a constitutional right.

This is why taking this case to the Supreme Court is the right move because we need a clear answer. An institution cannot be public when receiving funding but turn private when it wants to discriminate.

Win or lose, the bigger lesson for the Muslim community is about dignity. We cannot keep begging for acceptance in spaces that resent our identity.

If the law says private spaces can dictate their own terms, then our response should be to build and fund our own top-tier schools that celebrate our values.

True intelligence is fighting for accountability under the law while refusing to allow our religious well-being depend on their validation.

Allah knows best.

@MuritalaMujeebA @RufaiHafsat1 But they do, so what’s the arguement?

@Salbahs_ @gabe_teee Saying this when the Quran is a blatant rip off of the Torah and the Bible. Take a sit
