@woye1 @atiku Thank goodness this ruling isn't from a Nigerian court, or they'd just call it a political witch hunt.
Baba should please pay the money back; it would help out with our power projects.

It would be great to see a new governor elected this Saturday in Osun state who's got vision and is focused on making the state viable, unlike the last three governors.

@onu_slim One of Africa's big problems is being scared to take on debt and manage it well. There's barely any refinery the size of Dangote's without the kind of debt Dangote currently has. So, no need to be scared of it, it's long-term debt for long-term projects.

@yinkanubi Even apart from Galatians 3:28, Scripture teaches that every human being is created in the image of God. Therefore, no person's life is more valuable than another's.

Very intellectually stimulating presentation by H.E Babtunde Fashola @tundefashola @theplatformng yesterday.

[Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT]

Overnight, Nigeria and the United States recorded a significant example of effective collaboration in the fight against terrorism.

Our determined Nigerian Armed Forces, working closely with the Armed Forces of the United States, conducted a daring joint operation that dealt a heavy blow to the ranks of the Islamic State.

Early assessments confirm the elimination of the wanted IS senior leader, Abu-Bilal Al-Manuki, also known as Abu-Mainok, along with several of his lieutenants, during a strike on his compound in the Lake Chad Basin

Nigeria appreciates this partnership with the United States in advancing our shared security objectives. I extend my sincere gratitude to President Trump for his leadership and unwavering support in this effort.

I commend the personnel involved on both sides for their professionalism and courage, and I look forward to more decisive strikes against all terrorist enclaves across the nation.

“Tonight, at my direction, brave American forces and the Armed Forces of Nigeria flawlessly executed a meticulously planned and very complex mission to eliminate the most active terrorist in the world from the battlefield. Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, second in command of ISIS…” - President Trump

@DOlusegun Fingers crossed, hoping for meaningful performance and results from him, not like his predecessor, much like the impressive track record of Dr. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo.
All we're asking for is consistent improvement in power, not just stories and promises.

@grok Analyze immigrants contributions to top innovation, invention and research in the US using Professor John Dabiri as an example. Expantiate on where Nigerian immigrants in the US are in the rankings of highest educational attainment rates of any immigrant group in the US. Compare and pitch this against @JesseKellyDC's highest academic attainment or any laurel he has received as a radio talkshow presenter. Go further to provide insight on how much Nigerian students studying in the US bring to the US in terms of revenue, compared to how much economic value the US may have derived from @JesseKellyDC radio program.

"Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition." - Steve Jobs

U.S. National Debt surpasses $38 trillion.

U.S. household debt stands at $18.8 trillion.

A paradox: the "Richest nation" also holds the "Richest debt."

@osasuo @muhammadtajude7 @yinkanubi The U.S. Embassy staff might just grant this "wahala" man a visa before he starts writing stories about his embassy encounters! 😅
