He made the fire cool and safe for Prophet Ibrahim.
He cured Prophet Ayyub after years of illness and hardship.

So why should I limit my du’as when I worship the Lord of all things?

Nothing is too difficult for Allah. If it matters to you, ask Him for it.

[Albint @albintblog]

I am not afraid to make du’a for anything I want, no matter how impossible it may seem because I know who my Rabb is.

My Rabb granted a child to Prophet Zakariyya.
He parted the sea for Prophet Musa.
He saved Prophet Yunus from the belly of the whale.

These are the kind of quotable quotes that will echo for generations to come and remain part of Nigeria’s political discourse for years ahead.

I am very sad at the latest terrorist attacks in Borno State and the resurfacing of suicide bombing that were hitherto defeated.

The increased waves of killing of soldiers and civilians by terrorists is reviving sad memories of 2014 when Boko Haram was most active in the country.

While I commend the sacrifices of our servicemen in the conduct of unconventional warfare, the Tinubu administration should review its strategies. The resurgence of terrorism is capable of eroding public confidence in the ability of the government to protect its own citizens.

Nigerians are not impressed with the government’s statements condemning terrorist attacks. They are more concerned about results. Results speak louder than the tough government’s rhetorics.

The Tinubu government appears to be more obsessed with crushing opposition politicians than it is with fixing the worsening security challenges. And it is obvious that despite the marching orders, the terrorists are still on the offensive.

Terrorists don’t know the difference between APC supporters and opposition sympathisers and it’s therefore unhelpful to dismiss honest advice as politically motivated. A government that is too heavily invested in the 2027 reelection campaign is unlikely to accept the reality of insecurity and attack those who dare talk about the gaps.

A mother in Maiduguri is not asking for press releases. She is asking why her child was blown apart in a place the government claimed was “liberated.”

Our soldiers are dying with outdated equipment while the President is on a state visit to Britain, while body parts are being gathered in Borno. We urge His Majesty the King, @RoyalFamily, to know that his guest left behind fresh graves and weeping widows to come and smile for the cameras.

Bola Tinubu claims he sent “marching orders.” The terrorists sent suicide bombers. Nigerians can see who is winning.

A government that treats funerals as routine and criticism as treason has lost the moral authority to lead.

You cannot campaign for 2027 on the graves of the people you failed to protect in 2026. -AA

[Dr. Abu Ameenah Bilal Philips @DrBilalPhilips]

A man came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) asking permission to go for jihad. The Prophet asked him: "Are your parents alive?" When the man said yes, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Then strive in their service" (Sahih al-Bukhari 3004, Sahih Muslim 2549). Brothers and sisters, you can earn paradise in the room next to yours. Call your mother, sit with your father, and do not waste a door Allah has placed in your own home.

@omonlakiki @atiku Selective justice is injustice. The credibility of any democracy is measured not by how it treats loyalists, but by how it treats perceived opponents

[Foundational Nupe Lawyer @egi_nupe]

That Nigga still found a way to blame Tinubu for leaving ADC. Imagine not doing your due diligence before joining a party, only to end up running away from that same party in less than 2months.

Now you are going into another party, what is the assurance that the same Tinubu will not infiltrate that party too?

When will he learn to take responsibility?

[Abdul-Rasheed Yahaya (YD) @rasheedyd]

@sowore @RashwalRashwal It's known you're working for your pay master. And it's the single reason I've never taken you seriously for your pretending struggle. Mention any single things you've joined the Nigerians citizens to achieve. Nothing serious can come out of you.

IBADAN DECLARATION

Communiqué issued at the end of Opposition Political Parties National Summit held on Saturday April 25, 2026 in Ibadan, Oyo State.

Participating Opposition Parties in Nigeria, after an extensive deliberation on the collective threats that we face and the existential challenges facing our country under the stranglehold of the oppressive and anti-democratic All Progressives Congress (APC) and given the need for urgent, collective action to rescue our nation and the destiny of over 200 million compatriots, hereby resolve as follows:

1. That we shall resist all machinations by the APC to foist a one-party State on Nigeria and fight for the survival of multi-party democracy in our country.

2. That despite the onslaughts and manoeuvrings of the ruling party, the APC to impose President Bola Tinubu as the sole Presidential candidate in 2027; we shall field candidates and contest the 2027 Presidential and other elections.

3. That we shall work towards fielding one Presidential Candidate for the 2027 elections, which shall be agreed and supported by all participating opposition parties to rescue our nation and her long suffering masses.

4. That the INEC Chairman, Prof. Joash Ojo Amupitan, having shown bias and partisanship in favour of the ruling APC, should not conduct the 2027 general elections as Nigerians across board have lost confidence in him and his capacity to guarantee the required neutrality to deliver free, fair, transparent and credible elections. His continuous stay in office is vexatious and capable of triggering wide spread crisis in our nation.

5. That the National Assembly should immediately review the Electoral Act, 2026 to remove all sections that threaten the sanctity and integrity of the elections and run counter to constitutional provisions.

6. That all leading politicians that are being detained or harassed on bailable offfences be released with immediate effect and allowed to exercise their fundamental rights of participation and inclusivity as Nigerians.

7. That we consider the recent guidelines released by the INEC as obstacles, deliberately engineered to impose conditions and deadlines on the opposition parties. We therefore demand that INEC extends the deadline for primaries till the end of July, 2026.

8. The Summit commends Nigerians for their resilience and readiness to work with Opposition Parties to free our nation from State capture.

9. The National summit of Opposition Political Parties thank the Oyo State Governor Engr. Seyi Makinde and the people of Oyo State for hosting the epochal event.

SIGNED:

Chairmen of Participating Opposition Parties.

@HAHayatu Caging Elrufai was the greatest strategy used against ADC. Its presence and availability would've positively changed the scenario.

"@BwalaDaniel, it's unfortunate that your pursuit of life's endeavours seems devoid of moral grounding. Given that @Atiku was once your boss, it would have been better to simply not respond to his comment. A life without morality ultimately amounts to nothing.

[D. H Bwala @BwalaDaniel]

My former boss @atiku said “with a coalition candidate, President Tinubu @officialABAT is dead on arrival. Lol

But we know you are the coalition candidate YET (no vex sir), he defeated you in 2023 when you had governors, states, and structures.These governors, states and structures are with him.

With a coalition of aggrieved “STATELESS” leaders, I doubt if President Tinubu would bother to check the scoreboard on the day.
