Now imagine this girl after being rap#d three times a day for 20 days, then she sees the news that the government has forgiven and rehabilitated 700 bandits.
Imagine going through all of that, only for the government to rehabilitate them???
I hate this government, bro. 😭😭😭
Haven't seen the full interview, but I feel like people are misunderstanding Datti's words (the sympathy part). We may disagree on this, but over time, I've come to realise that Datti often struggles with correct word usage and appliance.
Yes, it's true that 3 prominent northern politicians turned down the offer to be PO's running mate in 2023. Kwankwaso was one of them.
The part he left unsaid due to the sensitivity of it is his belief that the reasons mostly bordered around PO being an Igbo man. That's left to be argued, but that's the part that drew the "sympathy" that he referred to, and what made him accept PO's offer because he believes that no Nigeriam should be profiled just based on their ethnicity.
Mind you, Datti was always PO's first choice. However, the powerbrokers around him wanted a merger with a more household named Northern politicians to boost the ticket's chances.
I think the reason he wanted Datti from the get-go was because he overestimated how far Nigerians were willing to go to protect their votes. He knew he had what it took to win all by himself and that his voters would do their part.
That was a costly miscalculation, one that I'd have you know that Datti understands completely; reason he was the first to suggest Kwankwaso and NER to him this time around
Also, the reason BATIKU folks are attacking PO with everything they've got currently is because they know the tide has shifted. The younger Northern powerbrokers have decided that they've given kachalla enough. They're aware that there are strong northern politicians who have come to trust PO over the last 4 years and unanimously agree that it's time for healing.
That's what Kwankwaso was referring to when he talked about consulting with the leaders in the North before accepting to be PO's running mate.
Terrorists took turns raping a 52-year-old mother in front of her two children. They recorded it and posted the video online.
We aren’t resilient people, we’re just cowards.
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!

This is what he wanted all along. Now let’s see who he’ll take as deputy. The opposition is fractured again as a result of this man.
When we count those who ruined Nigeria, Atiku should be counted.

If I told you that back in the 1700s, British plantation owners in Jamaica were so terrified of enslaved Ghanaians that they tried to pass an actual law in parliament to ban the import of people from the Gold Coast, you’d think I’m lying . Below is the story of the Coromantees…
The Ashanti people of Ghana built furniture so significant it started a war. Their stools were not just common stools. Each one was carved from a single piece of wood, shaped to reflect the owner’s identity, status and soul. The Golden Stool was considered so sacred that when the British Governor demanded to sit on it in 1900, the Ashanti took up arms rather than allow it.
Today, Ghana imports plastic chairs from China.
Let me tell you how it happened. Nigeria’s ginger export hit zero from N26 billion within 3 years.
The official story blames fungal blight.
But here is what actually happened. When Nigerian farmers lost their indigenous seed supply, grant-aided interventions arrived with replacement seeds.
An associate professor at Lagos Business School flagged publicly that some of those interventions involved GMO organisms that weakened indigenous crops and compromised soil health.
That is not a conspiracy theory because it is a documented academic concern.
Now that Nigeria spoke got destroyed by the GMO seedlings….what is not the result?
Nigeria was forced to import ginger from China to fill domestic demand. Chinese ginger has none of the pungency, oleoresin content, or quality that made Nigerian ginger a global premium product. And the ginger now sitting in Nigerian markets tastes like wood because it essentially is wood.
The two indigenous varieties that built Nigeria’s global ginger reputation, the Tafin Giwa and Yatsun Biri, had decades of soil relationship and quality built into them.
Once the soil was degraded and those seed varieties were displaced, the product that returned was a pale imitation. Nigeria did not just lose a market. It lost a seed. And without a National Ginger Seed Bank, which nobody has built, it may never fully get it back.
