Do you want to know what patriotism is? Look at the move to ban TikTok in America. Democrats supported. Republicans supported it because of the National Security Risk to America of private data being leaked to China. And it passed in the House of Representatives in a bipartisan vote. 197 Republicans and 155 Democrats voted for it. They put country first above partisanship.
But think back to when Nigeria moved against Binance. The opposition politicised it. Their online mob tried to trigger a revolution. It was almost as if they held Binance passports instead of Nigerian passports.
Think back to how Nigerians reacted to the coup in Niger. Supporters of a particular candidate were ecstatically calling for the same in Nigeria and undermining Nigeria's foreign policy.
Cast your mind to the Ibadan bomb blast. Nigerians mocked their fellow Nigerians because of who they voted for, not minding the human suffering that had just been visited on them by the activities of illegal miners.
And think back to my #GrowNairaBuyNaija campaign. Some of our own citizens were openly undermining Glo in favour of MTN and Airtel, until the undersea submarine cable was sabotaged, showing them who has partial commitment to them and who has total allegiance to Nigeria.
Fellow citizens, the elections are over. Tinubu is President. There will be no coup. But we will get a chance to democratically unseat him in 2027, God sparing his life and ours.
Love your country always. Support your country at all times. This should remain unchanged even if you hate your government. Your President is temporary. Your country is forever.
May God bless Nigeria and frustrate all enemies of Nigeria!

I thank the people of Surulere 1 federal constituency for voting overwhelmingly for APC in yesterday’s bye-election. Your support for APC is a clear testament to the quality legislative representation and numerous intervention projects Surulere has enjoyed. I am confident our constituency will continue to enjoy quality representation in the National Assembly under Hon. Fuad Kayode Laguda @FKLaguda.
Our Surulere community will continue to enjoy the full complement of my new office. As I am sure of a better Nigeria under the leadership of my boss, @officialABAT. I see firsthand, the energy Mr. President commits daily to fixing the current economic hardship.
My special appreciation to H.E., President Bola Tinubu, GCFR; Speaker of Nigeria’s House of Representatives, @Speaker_Abbas, Ph.D; our own performing Governor, H.E, Gov. @jidesanwoolu ; the National, State and Local leadership of our party under Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, Pastor Cornelius Ojelabi @APCchairman and Hon. Sheriff Balogun respectively; Lagos State GAC Leaders, our joint state and local election planning committee, our party members, community leaders and entire residents of Surulere.
We thank the election umpire, @inecnigeria and all their permanent and Adhoc staff, security agencies and the media for ensuring a free, fair and transparent bye-election.
