There is no convincing explanation for why a candidate who finished third in the 2023 presidential election attracts this level of hostility from all directions. The intensity of the attacks raises questions that Nigerians deserve answers to.

Perhaps one day, we will finally understand what really happened in 2023.

BREAKING: Armed terrorists on Friday reportedly killed the nephew of Barr. Dalyop Solomon Mwantiri, President of the Berom Youth Moulders Association, in Plateau State, Nigeria.

This comes months after his immediate younger brother was assassinated in Solomon’s hometown of Jol, where the Friday night incident occurred.

Mwantiri has recently reported threats to his life over his outspoken criticism of Fulani militancy.

Do not Undermine Democracy

I have received with shock the news of an order by the Federal High Court in Abuja nullifying the emergence of the Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and all the actions he has taken. This is unsettling and surprising.

I do not challenge the ruling of the court. The court of law is constituted to determine disputes according to the law. My concern is that three months before a general election, it is in the public interest to have certainty. It is not good to have too many uncertainties about candidates and parties a few weeks before a presidential election. This instability is obviously engineered by the ruling party, just as they have done against me in the Labour Party and continue to do so to close down civic space for a robust campaign. It is also from the same rulebook that manufactures violence against us in our campaigns.

One mark of democracy is that at all times, it is voters and not courts that choose leaders. I trust in the judiciary. As a public officer, I have shown deep respect for the judiciary. I appeal that we protect the integrity of democracy by not undermining the free and fair choice of candidates.

The sustenance of democracy in Nigeria, in the midst of encroaching military rule in West Africa, should strengthen our resolve to protect opposition politics and not stamp out opposition parties. It is because of the importance of opposition to the sustenance of democracy that I have always promised that, as President, I will take a special interest in ensuring opposition parties are stable and thriving, and that opposition candidates are not persecuted out of electoral contests.

This is a time to strengthen our democracy by allowing the opposition to thrive.

A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Keep exposing them, I spoke about opposition using international influencers since a lot of Nigerian influencers are working for APC.

I’m glad we are gradually getting there🤭🤭

She ran under a hail of bullets while in labour.

On June 21st, Longdi ThankGod arrived at the hospital to give birth to her first child. Minutes later, terrorists stormed that same hospital.

Inside the reception, they killed her husband, her in-laws, her doctor, and her taxi driver.

Longdi escaped through an emergency exit while in active labour. Under gunfire, she ran 500 meters and delivered her baby alone in the bush.

She named him Naankibanmun — "God helped us."

He was orphaned on the day he was born, in the place he was supposed to meet his father.

Three months later, Longdi is still living with the trauma. We cannot look away.

[J Martins @Realjmartins]

It baffles me on how @inecnigeria registered more northerners in my local government and my village more than the real indigenous people that comes from this area and you think this election will still be free and fair?

Please make this situation make sense

[Pat Utomi @UtomiPat]

INEC INEC INEC. They distrust technology when it comes to uploading results to the IREV but they trust to use it to confuse the voters register. The people are angry everywhere. I cannot walk through an airport without people surrounding me and saying this is advance rigging and that they may have to take the laws into their hands. To avert anarchy I am calling on all the political parties to come together and demand a fully clean and transparently displayed register. I would also like the international community. especially those who support elections in Nigeria to alert INEC to consequences. It is also important to alert that this is the moral equivalence of genocide and that the International Criminal Court( ICC) be prepared to put on trial INEC officials from clerical levels to the Chairman.
They may have read Stalin that it is not those who vote but those who count the vote that determine elections but they may be about to learn that those who miscount the votes may be statistics of revolutions stoked by the anger of the people.

Omoh!!! Election haven’t even started and this is happening already ?? INEC FALL OUT!!

[Sherifdeen of Nigeria 🇳🇬 @AbuUbayy1]

Two interesting things I discovered this week are:

1. That you can get genuine court affidavits online from the Nigerian Federal High Court. A genuine one, not the ones those roadside people give you.
The website has all sorts of affidavits, even ones I didn't know existed.

2. The National Population Commission has a working portal. You can register your newborn online and get a certified birth certificate that is accepted worldwide.

You can do all these things without any bureaucracy.

What happened today, Monday, along the Sokoto–Gusau road is heartbreaking. This is the vehicle that was transporting police officers to Gusau. May Almighty Allah forgive those who lost their lives, grant them Aljannatul Firdaus, and give their families the strength to bear this painful loss. May Allah restore peace and security to our country. 😭

[Adika @Adikastakes]

Arsenal has just served me one of the worst loses I’ve experienced as a Liverpool fan. We lost to Arsenal at Anfield for the first time in 14 years without even recording in single shot on target. We have the most expensive frontline in the history of the Premier League 💔

[Shola 👑 @itsSh0la]

I just saw a news on AriseNews where a woman was sentenced to 14 years in prison for converting a muslim adult to a Christian in Borno, and people aren’t talking about it enough. Are we even okay in this country???????

[oseni rufai @ruffydfire]

If you guys come out to vote, the elections will be too big to rig.

You must come out.

If we have over 60m Nigerians out to vote!

RE: SENATOR ROCHAS OKOROCHA’S REMARKS ON PETER OBI’S SINGLE-TERM COVENANT

We have reviewed Senator Rochas Okorocha’s comments on Channels Television’s *Politics Today*.

We accept his description of Peter Obi as “a fantastic gentleman; clear in his head.” On the claim that a single term is “a four-year gambling,” we respectfully disagree.

Section 135(2) of the 1999 Constitution provides that a President shall leave office after four years and may seek a further four years. In law, “may” is permissive, not mandatory. A single term is therefore constitutional. It is not a gamble.

Nigeria already tested an eight-year tenure between 2015 and 2023. The result was rising inflation, a weakened naira, soaring public debt, widespread poverty, and insecurity across the country. That is the real balance sheet of prolonged tenure without performance.

Peter Obi’s offer is a performance bond, not a gamble. He has pledged to serve one term, to be judged strictly by results, and to hand over power in 2031 in recognition that it is the turn of the North. This is sacrifice for national stability.

Leadership is measured by impact, not duration. Nigeria’s problem has never been insufficient time. It has been the repeated failure to use time well. Mr. Obi proposes to reverse that culture: one term dedicated entirely to delivery.

When a man entitled to eight years voluntarily chooses four and invites the nation to judge him by results, he is not gambling. He is sacrificing.

This is not a gamble. It is a rescue mission with a deadline.
