Peter Obi.

There is a strange thing happening in Nigeria. A quiet man, unpolished in speech, has become louder than every microphone raised against him.

He doesn’t speak queen’s English. He is not an orator. But when he opens his mouth, something ancient in the Nigerian spirit stirs, because real recognizes real. He speaks the way a father speaks to his children when NEPA fails and there’s nothing left to perform: plainly, urgently, truthfully.

A billionaire, yes. But somehow, impossibly, he feels the pulse of the hawker in Kano, the graduate without a job in Enugu, massacre survivors in Benue, the okada rider dodging potholes in Lagos. The poor recognize him not because he pretends to be poor, but because he refuses to pretend they don’t exist.

The ruling class doesn’t know what to do with him. They cannot buy his silence. They cannot bury him in scandal that sticks. They cannot shrink his profile, at home or abroad, no matter how many microphones they hand to his critics. And when they attack him online, millions rise before he even has to speak, an organic army he never had to build, from every tribe and tongue, because you cannot manufacture what people give freely.

He is not perfect. He is not the messiah some have made him. But he is proof that a nation this bruised can still recognize sincerity when it sees it, still reach for hope when it’s offered honestly.

And by the grace of God, and the vigilance of long-suffering Nigerians who refuse to look away, he will be Nigeria’s next President and Commander-in-Chief, Peter Obi.

[Káyọ̀dé Ògúndámisí 🇳🇬 @ogundamisi]

When supporters of Nigeria’s self-proclaimed “pro-democrats” now in power tell you to be grateful that an elected president did not use force to hijack an election, or that it was simply “an agreement to let Adeleke win”, you begin to understand the depth of the deception. We have always had fascists hiding behind the language of democracy.

This is a president under whose watch more than 48 people were reportedly killed in the period leading up to the Osun election; who withheld Osun State’s local government allocations for more than 15 months; whose government seized state funds through the EFCC; and whose party members openly called for the killing of voters who might not vote for the APC.

And yet, we are told to celebrate because the president did not deploy force to overturn the election.

But even that claim deserves scrutiny. Soldiers were deployed in battalions. Troop movements of that scale do not simply happen without the knowledge of the commander in chief, particularly a president who had just allegedly survived a coup plot involving the very military under his command. To pretend otherwise is to ask people to suspend all reason.

That is not democracy. That is democracy reduced to the mere absence of a coup.

The delusion is staggering. But the record speaks louder than the propaganda. These people have spent years calling themselves democrats while behaving in ways far closer to Abacha than to democracy.

[Chidi Anselm Odinkalu, CGoF @ChidiOdinkalu]

This man's position has become entirely untenable in @officialEFCC.

He has tried his best.

He is a senior pastor & a senior lawyer.

He still has professional shelf life.

It's time to call time on this corruption of anti-corruption.

Mr. Chairman, in God's name, please go!

@aonanuga1956 Thank you catholic bishop andcardinal onaiyekan, u do this one oo. God bless you ooo, this govt who strongly believes all is fair in politics, freezed Edo account days before elections but didn't do that under ekiti now remember this wicked moved against Osun. SHAME

[Damilola @Jersda94]

This man literally shared a press release justifying the executive overreach and clear abuse of power yesterday and now he is sharing another release which contradict his initial statement.

These people have turned presidency upside down and it will affect the entire Yoruba people going forward. We can’t allow the world to believe this dunce right here is our best!! These people do not represent Yoruba people and they are wolves that will perish when the time comes. Tinubu is a poster boy of failure and he has surrounded himself with fellow failures

The Catholic bishop is a Yoruba man. 😏

Tomorrow, I don’t want to hear, “Yorubas are the ones supporting Tinubu.” 🫩

No.

APC supporters are supporting their candidate.

Politics is a matter of individual choice, not tribal identity.

Going forward, no add my tribe join. I take God beg una. 🙏🏽

🚨 How Did a Cooperative College Get N1.08 Trillion for 2,791 Capital Projects?

Our review of the 2026 FG budget reveals that the Federal Cooperative College, Oji River (@fedccojiriver), has been allocated N1.08 trillion for 2,791 capital projects spread across the 36 states in Nigeria and the FCT. This means a single federal cooperative college is expected to implement thousands of projects with nationwide coverage from Abia to Zamfara, Sokoto to Bayelsa, Lagos to Borno, and across the FCT.

These projects include:
🛣️ Road and drainage constructions
💡 Solar streetlight installation,
🎓 Digital learning centres,
🌾 Supply of rice and empowerment materials,
⚽ Construction of football pitches,
🏥 Medical outreaches,
♻️ Plastic recycling and processing plants,
🩺 Dialysis centres,
🚑 Ambulance supply e.t.c

Yet, the College's core mandate is to advance cooperative education and practice through capacity building, research, innovation, leadership development, and support for sustainable livelihoods.

Even more concerning, many of these projects have no clearly stated implementation locations, making citizen oversight and project tracking extremely difficult.

To put this allocation in perspective, the N1.08tn earmarked for FCC Oji River alone is greater than the combined allocations to six key ministries:

🏝️ Federal Ministry of Tourism - N21.76bn
🎭 Federal Ministry of Arts - N70.53bn
📡 Federal Ministry of Communications - N85.56bn
⛏️ Federal Ministry of Solid Minerals Development - N156.84bn
🔐 All six agencies under the Federal Ministry of Interior - N723.62bn

This raises important questions:
❓ Why is a cooperative college implementing projects far beyond its statutory mandate?
❓ How were these projects assigned to the institution?
❓ How can citizens track projects with no clearly defined locations?
❓ What accountability mechanisms are in place to ensure value for money?

At a time when Nigeria faces significant fiscal pressures and relies heavily on borrowing to fund public expenditure, public resources must be allocated transparently, strategically, and through institutions with the capacity and legal mandate to deliver results.

A budget item without a clear location, defined beneficiaries, and a responsible implementing agency creates fertile ground for waste, inefficiency, and weak accountability.

Rehabilitate Existing Infrastructure Before Embarking on New Projects

I have consistently advised governments at all levels to prioritise rehabilitating existing infrastructure before embarking on new projects that may also end up abandoned or left unfinished. For expressing this position, I have often been criticised and called all sorts of names. Yet, it remains the most responsible approach to governance.

It is therefore noteworthy that President Bola Tinubu has now cautioned state governors against committing scarce public resources to constructing unnecessary flyovers in areas with little traffic while neglecting more pressing developmental needs.

The President is, in essence, saying what I have always maintained: government must prioritise projects that directly address the immediate needs of the people. I hope those ministers, officials, and supporters who have consistently attacked this position will now direct the same criticism at him.

However, this admonition must also apply to the Federal Government. There are several unrealistic and white-elephant projects being pursued by the current administration, even as much of our critical infrastructure remains in a state of disrepair. Given our present fiscal realities, priority should be given to rehabilitating and completing existing infrastructure rather than embarking on expensive new projects with limited immediate impact.

Across Nigeria, many of our major highways linking commercial centres and food-producing communities have deteriorated into death traps. Neglecting these critical roads while pursuing prestige projects is neither economically prudent nor people-centred.

This philosophy guided my administration as Governor of Anambra State. I prioritised completing viable projects initiated by my predecessors before embarking on new ones. Government is a continuum, and development should never be measured by who starts a project, but by whether it is completed and serves the people.

Leadership is about making the right choices: fixing what is broken, completing what has already been started, and investing limited public resources where they will have the greatest impact on the greatest number of people.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Hunger and the Insensitivity of Mr. President

I watched with deep concern the statement made by President Bola Tinubu to the Catholic Bishops who visited his office, that there has always been hunger in Nigeria, even before he was born.

While it is true that hunger has been a part of human life and has existed in our country for decades, such a statement appears insensitive to the plight of the millions of Nigerians who face worsening economic hardship today. More importantly, we must focus on the facts and the measurable outcomes of governance.

Before the present administration assumed office in 2023, an estimated 17 million Nigerians were facing acute food insecurity, primarily caused by insecurity, armed conflict, widespread banditry, and devastating floods. Today, less than three years later, that number has risen to about 35 million Nigerians. Instead of improving the situation, the crisis has worsened significantly under the current administration.

The same trend is evident in poverty. Before this government took office in 2023, Nigeria’s extreme poverty was estimated at 87 million people. Current projections suggest that this number is approaching 140 million people, making Nigeria home to the largest population of people living in extreme poverty anywhere in the world.

No one disputes that this administration inherited serious challenges. However, leadership is measured not by the challenges inherited but by the results achieved. The government must honestly acknowledge that its response has fallen far short of what the situation demanded, with millions more Nigerians pushed deeper into poverty and hunger.

The combination of persistent insecurity, poor economic management, fiscal indiscipline, wasteful public expenditure, and inadequate investment in productive sectors has compounded the suffering of ordinary Nigerians.

A responsible government must prioritise investment in education, healthcare, agriculture, security, and small businesses while pursuing policies that create jobs, expand production, and lift people out of poverty. That remains my commitment to the Nigerian people.

A New Nigeria is Possible. PO

@xave_xavee @uzoma_alaneme Billions from where? Politicians steal our common wealth and unjustly enrich themselves, families and cronies.. they then donate, from their loot, to d poor. And the poor sings their praises for their "generosity"... dats insanity

[Dr. Uzoma Alaneme @uzoma_alaneme]

I was talking to a friend one day and mentioned that the most bothersome thing about BAT is his utter lack of empathy for Nigerians. One can argue that he holds the average Nigerian in great disdain. If you are not a politician whom he can corrupt and use, you hold no utility for him. You can see this callousness in his wife and the people around him. This trait has always been there. It was there when he uttered the infamous “Where are the cows?” statement when herdsmen killed Fasonranti’s daughter.

A wicked man, through and through. 🥹
