When survival becomes a negotiation,
something is deeply broken

“Officer, abeg…”

No citizen should ever have to bargain for their life in public at gunpoint, let alone end up dead at the hands of those employed to protect them

[Godspower Obami @powerobami]

Being Nigerian should never feel like a worthless life

Not at home
Not abroad

Yet here we are

Accountability is not optional

[Chris Bryant @RhonddaBryant]

Completely wrong. We’re not lending money to Nigeria. We are enabling UK businesses to get contracts building ports overseas. The businesses are a key uk export earning them money and UK Export Finance earns interest, making profits for the uk.🇬🇧

@ruffydfire Yes, Nigeria does have some air defence capability, but it is limited and not comparable to advanced missile-shield systems used by major powers. We have Roland II short-range air defence systems from the 1980s. There has been no use for it since acquired.

[Godspower Obami @powerobami]

Nigeria doesn’t just need money, She needs independent systems, accountability, and execution. Banditry, Boko Haram and now foreign crime, aren’t just security issues, they’re economic constraints. 🇳🇬

🚨NEW: The UK has announced a new partnership with Nigeria that could enable the deportation of thousands of failed asylum seekers and foreign criminals

🎥LATEST
- Energy costs are rising at a rate comparable to the aftermath of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
- The Strait of Hormuz is still effectively closed.
- Investors are now betting that UK interest rates might rise.

“We purchase Nigerian Crude from the government at International Benchmark prices, we then pay international freight and insurance rates. All these add further costs to purchasing the barrels and refining it” — MD, Dangote Refinery, David Bird.

Nigeria should be benefit from global demand instead of passing the full burden to its people. What are we doing about it right now?

[JJ. Omojuwa @Omojuwa]

You can't go from celebrating the start of this war to crying over the price of fuel. See it as an opportunity to learn about multi-order effects.

Again, like some Superpowers have been finding out since 2022, everyone knows how a war starts, no one knows how it ends.

[Godspower Obami @powerobami]

If ‘abeg’, nyash and eba can make it to the Oxford English Dictionary, then never underestimate where something small can go. Everything just needs time. Making eba is therapeutic abeg 🤣

Tell God thank you in advance under this post

How much money do you need right now to solve your problems but don't be greedy

@DanielRegha Nigeria wahala have led to Nigerians celebrating illiteracy

[Emmanuel Macron @EmmanuelMacron]

In France, we believe in science.

That is why, on May 5, I issued a clear and open call to the world: for science, choose France.

I am very proud to see that this call has resonated so strongly.

Around forty leading researchers have chosen France.

Through “France 2030”, we have invested more than €30 million to advance health, climate action, artificial intelligence, and fundamental sciences.

Science has found its home.

Who’s using R today?

[Godspower Obami @powerobami]

@OneBankNG Let it stay that way 😁

[Ashraf Garda Champion South Africa @AshrafGarda]

Senegal 1 Egypt 0
Sadio Mane ‘s shot from outside the box the difference but really for long moments it seemed like only Senegal were trying to win. Crazy that an Egyptian team that featured Salah and Mamoush chose “not to play” and sit back. Infacts Salah’s biggest contribution was querying calls by the referee.

Merry Christmas to y'all Family 🎄

[Godspower Obami @powerobami]

Maybe western citizenship looks dramatic when Nigerians celebrate it, but that’s because celebration is part of our DNA. Birthdays, promotions, naming ceremonies, graduation. It all deserves music and small chops. It doesn’t automatically mean Nigeria is ‘unlivable.’

[SCOTT BOLSHEVIK @scottbolshevik]

No group celebrates Western citizenship like Nigerians. They make a spectacle of it and you’d think escaping home is the dream.

Is Nigeria really that unlivable?

[Godspower Obami @powerobami]

@ScholarshipfPhd Hi

[Godspower Obami @powerobami]

@RupertLowe10 Spot on. Since 2016 so many licences handed out without a UK test as you pointed out - that’s not right. Everyone should prove they can drive to UK standards, or the licence shouldn’t stand.
