Dear beloved sports-loving Nigerian youths,
After watching the performances of Davido, Burna Boy, and Rema at the opening of the 2026 World Cup—at a time when Nigeria, the giant of Africa, is absent—I felt a measure of consolation. This was reinforced by the fact that many Nigerians playing for clubs worldwide are representing other countries. Felix Nmecha, for instance, set a record by scoring the fastest goal at six minutes for Germany. I write to you therefore, knowing that this country belongs to you, the youth.
You are more of stakeholders in Nigeria’s future than I am. I am 64 years old; by God’s grace, much of my journey is behind me, while yours lies ahead.
It is therefore imperative that you rise to the challenge by obtaining your PVC, your most powerful tool for driving the change you desire.
In the last three years alone, over 15 million Nigerians have turned 18—enough to decide who becomes President, Governor, Senator, Member of the House, or Local Government Chairman. Indeed, enough to shape the nation’s future.
I know many of you are sceptical about politics and political parties. I understand why, but scepticism must not become surrender.
You do not need to belong to any party or wait for anyone to organise you. Organise yourselves in your streets, campuses, communities, workplaces, churches, mosques, and social groups. Mobilise, debate, demand accountability, and take part in choosing those you wish to entrust with leadership.
If you are organised and wish to hear directly from me, invite me. I will come and share my plans for you and our nation.
Do not sit on the sidelines while others decide your future.
I appeal to you to register and vote. Your vote can shape who becomes the next President of our country.
My young friends, this is your country. Take it back.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
Reality check is upon South Africans now. They are protesting begging foreigners to come back as most of their factories are shut down due to lack of human capital.
They should ask Jacinta and her group to provide machinists. This is just the beginning.
20,000 youths from Edo state can comb and clear the entire forests in Edo state of kidnappers, bandits and terrorists in just 7 days.
It will be a voluntary call to service to reclaim back their state and rid it off banditry, kidnappers and terrorists, and the exercise will last only 7 days.
They will be deployed in 8 groups of 500 volunteers each, into different directions to comb the entire forest of Edo state, and will remain in the forest for 7 days. The state government will handle their feeding and water for 7 days.
The result will be massive, because they will discover so many things.
After the 7 days exercise, every community will set up local vigilante to monitor activities around their community, expecially communities closer to those forests. They must report to the authorities immediately they observe any strange movement.
Communities where kidnappers return to after the 7 days clearance, their chief, CDC chairman, including the LGA chairman will be suspended by the Governor.
This will work and Edo state will return to her past glory.
Please Note, this exercise is totally voluntary.
Retweet until the people and government of Edo state sees this.
Dear Nigerians,
Leave everything & watch the 1993 presidential debate between Abiola & Alhaji Bashir Tofa.
MKO was fiercely against the IMF & the World Bank. He was against Naira Devaluation & IMF loans. He kicked against wasteful spending.
He stood for FREE education, not student loan.
In fact, Chief MKO won the 1993 presidential election after defeating Tofa in that debate. Nigerians saw his exceptionalism that day & voted overwhelmingly for Kashimawo. It was a Muslim-Muslim ticket that offered REAL hope.
Chief Moshood Kashimawo Olawale (MKO) Abiola was firmly against the International Monetary Fund (IMF) & the World Bank. He viewed these Bretton Woods institutions & their structural adjustment programs (SAP) as exploitative & designed to ensnare developing nations into debt traps & neo-colonial reliance.
In fact, he criticized the Structural Adjustment Program (SAP), a program of the IMF harshly. MKO was a Capitalist with Socialist ideals.
Key aspects of his economic vision were:
Farewell to Poverty: His manifesto proposed an economic framework that rejected the World Bank & IMF loans & structural adjustments.
Alternative Funding: Instead of devaluing the currency or taking conditional loans, Chief MKO planned to fund a nationwide free health & free education by cutting government waste & securing more profits from oil companies.
National Sovereignty: MKO was against neo-colonialism. As an international businessman, he argued that Nigeria had no business letting young IMF officials dictate its internal policies.
Today, JUNE 12 People are implementing SAP 2.0. They are running away from debates. They have gone against everything MKO stood for.
His HOPE '93 "Farewell to Poverty" was largely a ‘people-centric’ manifesto, anchored on democracy, social justice, agric revolution, poverty eradication, & anti-imperialism.
He promised to write off 10 years of taxes for private businesses that went into farming. He was ready to mechanize the whole value chain.
1993 was the fairest & freest election in Nigeria. The irony is, it was the military that conducted that election, before it was ultimately annulled.
Today, June 12 People cannot conduct a free election. The beneficiaries of JUNE 12 declare Oro on Election Day, & snatch ballot boxes.
They mutilate result sheets, compromise the IREV, & tell you to go to court. They plant their surrogates in opposition parties & call it a Master Strategy. June 12 People are no democrats, they are worse than Abacha.
They work against everything that MKO stood for. Under JUNE 12 People, Nigerians have no human rights. They use the police & the DSS to kidnap the critics of their government. They borrowed Nigeria to stupor. They plan to more, & they will squander it. And when the IMF or World Bank says “jump!” They ask, “how high?”
Recall that Muhammadu Buhari participated in the 2011 presidential debate, where he debated Nuhu Ribadu & Ibrahim Shekarau. However, he did not attend the 2007, 2015, & 2019 debates.
JUNE 12 People have never participated in any presidential debates. They will run away from the 2027 debates. They hate accountability.
MKO always quoted statistics like the man they attack in Nigeria today. The candidate they call “Obi China.” MKO articulated his thoughts. He was no bulaba. He stood for the poor. JUNE 12 People are there for themselves & the rich only.
They are asking you to renew their mandate—so they could do the things they promised you before. They will remain a fraud in my book.
Immediately after the 2023 elections, a friend who won a state house of assembly election under APC in one of the states, called me to tell to stop criticising Tinubu. He said Tinubu has a 20-year blue print to fix Nigeria just like he's doing in Lagos.
I asked, will Tinubu be in power for 20 years? He said yes. "He has been in power in Lagos since 1999 so he can be in power in Nigeria for 20 years."
Nigerians don't know the battle ahead. They think those of us speaking out are doing too much. Dey play.
Peter Obi thinks he knows a lot and has in depth knowledge about how to solve the economic, security and power problems.
I strongly believe BAT will flaw him very easily. I want BAT to mess him up so badly in a debate.
I'm using this medium to beg all APC supporters and believers of Asiwaju's knowledge of governance to accept an open debate to teach Peter Obi serious lessons.
The abduction of the Chibok girls in 2014 triggered a global movement. One school abduction was enough to unite Nigerians, attract international attention, and place enormous pressure on the government through the #BringBackOurGirls campaign.
Yet, what has happened since then should trouble every Nigerian.
Under President Buhari's eight years in office, Nigeria witnessed about ten school abductions. Under President Tinubu's administration, in just three years, we have already recorded over ten school abductions.
Despite these repeated tragedies, there has been neither sustained national outrage nor significant international attention comparable to what followed Chibok.
This raises an important question: have we become so accustomed to insecurity that what once shocked our national conscience is now treated as normal?
At a time when millions of Nigerians are grappling with insecurity, poverty, and hardship, it is deeply troubling that those in power appear more focused on political calculations and preparations for the next election than on addressing the urgent challenges confronting our people.
It is, therefore, no surprise that some observers have labelled us a "Now Disgraced Nation". While we do not agree with any attempt to define our great country by its present difficulties, we must acknowledge that persistent insecurity, economic hardship, and leadership failure have damaged our reputation and standing among nations.
The answer is not denial, propaganda, or political distraction. The answer is leadership that is competent, compassionate, accountable, and genuinely committed to the welfare and security of the Nigerian people.
The Nigerian youth must not become indifferent. We must all refuse to normalise failure.
Young Nigerians - Take back your country!
