I will soon delete that app too, alongside Snapchat. If there is one app that brainwashes young people through unhealthy competition, comparisons and agendas, then Instagram is one of them. The algorithm messes with people’s brains and distorts their psyche, yet they don’t realise it.
It is rather amusing to think that people have called you a terrorist, a jihadist, a bigot, frame you as a fundamentalist, an extremist, and even worse, yet you have allowed all of it to pass without the same sense of indignation, and it is simply because of their type of names, you know you need to be very careful.
Don’t get me wrong, you are absolutely within your rights to seek justice whenever you believe you have been wronged (even though I don't believe this it).
But I cannot help but see this as another example of a mentality that has become far too common in the country, the belief that northerners are somehow inferior, incapable of understanding their rights, and therefore easier to intimidate or bully.
What makes it even more troubling is that, in many instances, northerners will still defend the very people who treat them this way simply because those individuals are privileged, influential, or powerful. We have, unfortunately, cultivated a culture in which some people revere those who exercise power over them rather than question the structures that enable such treatment.
We did not see this same energy when people with certain names, different from ours, called you all those things. Why? Because you know very well that them no born any northerner well, especially the one in power to speak to BULLY their own people that way without facing fierce resistance. They would defend their own with such conviction and such a thunderous voice that neither you, nor those you seek to impress, would be able to ignore it.
And this is not just about Bashir Ahmad. It is unfortunate that Bashir is also participating in this pattern, but the problem goes far beyond him. It extends to all institutions and all people in positions of power.
As a northerner, you can be arrested simply for calling out an SA, and most times nothing happens because the system assumes you have neither the influence, the connections, or the voice to challenge it. Unless, of course, you happen to be privileged yourself.
And it is for this same reason our people in the north can be kidnapped on the very same week people from other regions are kidnapped, yet resources will be mobilised to rescue those elsewhere while our own people are left behind to endure their misery. And the underlying assumption seems to be, what can you do about it? Absolutely nothing.
The North MUST wake up. We must stop normalising humiliation, stop worshipping power, stop treating privilege as a substitute for justice, and stop believing that because someone is influential, we must tolerate whatever they choose to do to us.
Hmmm, this is very funny, wallahi.
The same Bashir whom Southerners called by so many names and subjected to all kinds of insults the same man who served as an SA for a good eight years and faced countless insults from Southerners, yet remained silent because, Southerners are educated while Northerners are illiterate.
The same man who responded to so many insults from Southerners here on X with soft and respectful words, trying to explain himself without offending them. But now, when it comes to Northerners, he wants to use them as a scapegoat. Hhhh!
Do you want people to start calling you and begging you to say, “Sorry, please forgive her,” or what?
At this point, people can clearly see how Northerners are being underrated and treated as if they are illiterate and cannot stand up for themselves. But what is the real reason behind this?
You are bringing up a post from 2020 as evidence, while there have been more recent attacks from Southerners that were even worse than this, yet you failed to take action because, they’re not your mates.

This is the kind of "opposition" Nigerians love. Sue the presidency in a court that is under the authority of the Chief Justice who is appointed by the presidency.
1,000 motion, 0 movement.
If you tell them that they'd get a much bigger result if they came out in numbers and blockaded the US embassy in Abuja like the Nigeriens did the French embassy in Niamey 3 years ago, they'll tell you "Why don't you come to Nigeria and do it yourself? CIA man!"
Make una continue to dey whine una selves. Continue to "hold your leaders accountable" by suing them in Kekere-Ekun's court, and "voting them out" with an INEC that receives funding from the US government under a commissioner that is an APC member.
And when it doesn't work, do it again. If it didn't work the first 569,000 times you already did it, try it another 697,000,000 times. When you're reaching the end of the 55 years you are statically likely to survive as a Nigerian and you're finally realising nothing has changed, instead of telling your kids to do the opposite of what you did, tell them "nIgEriA iS cUrSed, dO aNythInG yOu cAn tO mOvE tO cAnaDa".
Very wise people, Nigerians. 🥲
Egbon Bayo stop capping and respect the Nigerian people who pay your bills !
The Presidency announced on August 30 that President Bola Tinubu was leaving Nigeria for a three-week annual vacation in Europe. London was named as his first stop, and Nigerians were told he would return home after the working vacation.
That three-week period expired. On September 21, the Presidency announced that the President had extended his stay by “a few days” and would return “at the weekend.” The weekend came and went. The promise then changed to “this week.”
We need explanations not insults !!!
When a government announces one timeline, extends it, misses its own deadline and then offers another vague promise, Nigerians have every right to ask what changed. They have every right to ask who made the decision and who is accountable for it.
Instead of answering those basic questions, you have characteristically reached for ridicule.
“the President does not need to be physically present in Abuja to do his job in the digital age”
We’ve heard this argument before and it didn’t end well…
It is a distraction.
Nigerians did not ask whether a President can send instructions from abroad. They asked why the return dates keep changing, when the President will actually return, and what constitutional arrangement governs an absence that has now gone beyond the period originally announced.
Section 145 of the Constitution provides that when the President is proceeding on vacation or is otherwise unable to discharge the functions of his office, he is to transmit a written declaration to the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
Was that declaration transmitted?
If it was, the Presidency should say so plainly.
If it was not, the Presidency should explain the legal basis for the arrangement you are defending.
The parallels with the Yar’Adua era are therefore impossible to ignore and the issue is not that the two situations are identical.
The issue is the familiar official script: describe the absence as routine, offer categorical reassurance, insist that the President can continue governing from abroad and dismiss those asking for clear institutional answers.
During the Yar’Adua crisis, Nigerians were told that the President could continue to govern from outside the country. Today, they are told that the President is on a “working vacation,” is “hale and hearty” (Aondooaka the AGF actually used that exact phrase back then! ) and does not need to be physically present in Abuja in the digital age. The same reflex for unaccountability to the Nigerian people has not changed and it must.
In both cases, slogans and assurances are being used to fill the space where Nigerians deserve a firm timeline, a transparent constitutional arrangement and direct accountability. “L
“Hale and hearty” is not a return date. A list of meetings is not a constitutional answer. And an insult from a spokesperson is not a briefing. We are the ones paying his bills and should be kept abreast of what our employee is doing …if it feels like it’s beneath him then he should resign to private life and do as he pleases with his time and resources!
No one is arguing that the President has no right to take leave. The issue is whether the Presidency can give Nigerians a straight answer about the length of that leave, the reason for the extension and the authority under which government is being conducted.
The Presidency is not a private itinerary. It is a public office. If the President is working, tell Nigerians what decisions he has taken. If his stay has been extended, give the reason and a definite return date. If the constitutional notice was transmitted, confirm it.
What Nigerians do not need is to be scolded for asking questions that the government should have answered without being pushed.
Your job is to provide clarity, not to insult citizens who demand it. Accountability can’t be sent on vacation.
Where is he ?!
But how do you even convince a man who had lived in Nigeria in 2022 that Buhari was not a saint?
A man paid subsidy for his 8 years, managed to borrow ₦75.26 trillion between 2015 and 2023, sold fuel for 210 Naira as the highest price and cement for 4,500.
The same man, while paying subsidy, constructed and completed 8,352.94 kilometres of roads and intervened in the rehabilitation of over 13,000 kilometres of the federal road network.
He even flagged off programmes like the National Social Investment Programme (NSIP), Government Enterprise and Empowerment Programme (GEEP), N-Power and National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme (NHGSFP).
He even increased the minimum monthly salary from ₦18,000 to ₦30,000.
Mind you, his administration is considered the worst since the inception of the 4th Republic.
I keep saying it: I have never imagined that a day will come when we will have to miss Buhari this much.

The Federal Govt needs to look closely at what’s happening in Jos before politicians ruin the little peace on the Plateau with their ethnic and sinister agenda.
@HQNigerianArmy@OfficialDSSNG@PoliceNG you need to take charge, the skirmishes and counter skirmishes are heating up the polity.
Be proactive now.
Is this a joke, Dr @yakubwudil?
Because this post of yours only shows that you either don’t follow El-Rufai @elrufai’s case or you fundamentally lack an understanding of the case.
To begin with, El-Rufai doesn’t need anyone’s sympathy as he’s made clear.
And the above note doesn’t come as a lamentation of being abandoned by “supposed” friends, as you put it.
Secondly, what is the relevance of El-Rufai’s case to your friend in Saudi that got into trouble? I see no link here whatsoever.
What is the “trouble” that El-Rufai got into?
He was first accused of misappropriating and mismanaging Kaduna State resources while he governed the State. Charges that took them a month to produce after detaining him.
Then he was accused of wiretapping NSA Ribadu’s phone, to which there was no proof except a Deji Adeyanju who was presented as witness for being in Arise TV when El-Rufai made the statement over which he was accused.
Which of the above is the “trouble” that El-Rufai got into?
He was simply accused, and no convincing evidence has been provided almost 8 months into his detention. That’s even why he made a no case submission on the wiretapping issue.
You also claimed that the Federal Government is fighting him, but he’s been granted bail by two Federal High Courts in Kaduna and Abuja respectively. The only Court that denied & still denies him bail is the Kaduna State High Court. How comes he’s fighting the FG but her Courts were allowed to grant him “bail”, save for Kaduna High Court?
You may claim that “we all know..”, yes we all know. But that’s not a strong defence. Not when you come trying to absolve his “supposed friends”, claiming that they can do nothing.
And to be clear, “lobbying the FG” isn’t the “best” El-Rufai’s friends can do. He doesn’t even want that by the way. But if it’s all that you think of, then something is fundamentally wrong somewhere.
Supporting a friend doesn’t mean asking for a favour or lobbying on their behalf. Mere showing up, speaking up and/or utilising available legal instruments for them often send the strongest messages.
When your Emir Sanusi, then CBN Governor was suspended by Jonathan, El-Rufai was at the MMIA Lagos to receive him while he returned from Niger Republic. El-Rufai was a private citizen then and not in good terms with Jonathan, having been physically assaulted by soldiers and invited by the DSS after attempts to raid his Abuja home. Yet, he stood with his friend and dared the consequences.
Similarly, he stood up for your Emir Sanusi again when Ganduje dethroned and banished him to Loko, Nassarawa State. He was there personally to show solidarity and took Sanusi out of Loko while the legal battle was being initiated. El-Rufai even created more of a makeshift Palace for Sanusi in Kaduna as a friend.
Those are public gestures witnessed by millions of Nigerians. That can’t be said about Sanusi.
What about the Uba Sani and Ahmad Nuhu Bamalli, whom El-Rufai literally made the Governor & Emir respectively? They’re even attacking him.
What about many other “friends” of El-Rufai like them.
When did any of them visit him in detention, escorted him to Court, or challenged the bail conditions that are against a Court of Appeal ruling?
If you have any evidence one of them did, please share with me.
So even if El-Rufai complains (which he didn’t), he has the right to. And you (who’s not among his friends) can’t come and claim they can do nothing. You don’t know his friends and their influence as much as him.
You should be focused on the abuse of power & judicial process against El-Rufai, not meddling in friendship with such a weak defense.
Dear Nigerian Government,
When our children were abducted in Oyo, we saw urgency.
You deployed 1,000 forest guards. You provided updates. You showed concern. You pursued the kidnappers and eventually brought the children home.
We applauded you because we believed that response reflected the value you place on every Nigerian life.
So why has the response to the #BornoSchoolChildren been so different?
Their parents have protested repeatedly. They have pleaded for their children. Yet months later, we are still waiting for the same urgency, the same visible effort and the same determination we witnessed in Oyo.
No Nigerian is more Nigerian than another Nigerian!
It is already a failure that these children were abducted. It would be another failure to allow their parents to keep pleading while their children remain in captivity.
Give Borno the same urgency you gave Oyo and #BringBornochildrenHome.
My annoyance with all of these is, if Army overthrows this rubbish democracy, UN, ECOWAS, AU, EU et al will crying upadan. Nobody is talking against this undemocratic actions we see & hear everyday.
Always with the cosmetic solutions. A national tragedy occurred and the first response of a serving senator is to offer foreign scholarship to one of the survivors because he was dazzled by an interview.
What about the 37 that died? What about the other 30+ that survived? What about the other hundreds still depending on the mining trade to survive? What about justice? What about accountability?
What that boy and all the others need is basic respect as humans. They need basic amenities to live a conducive life. They don’t need some fancy abroad school. They just need the basics. Focus on that first.
As part of my duty as a citizen, I wrote to the NSA to seek clarification on reports about the importation by his office of thallium sulphate, a very dangerous toxin. It’s a matter of concern if anyone brings in any poison, more so an odourless, colourless one.
