We captured this beautiful moment of Chimdiebube Onwubiko arriving in Enugu yesterday to a hero's welcome.
He won a gold medal at the International STEM Olympiad Grand Finale in Rome.
I love seeing education reclaim its rightful place in our society.
This is just the beginning of something great.

If an Igbo man comes out to speak for IPOB the way Sheikh Gumi speaks for Islamic terrorists, he would be picked by security agents.
Gumi is freely advocating for terrorists, and remains untouchable because he's a fulani man and a Muslim. Until we deal with this muslim and fulani privileges, Nigeria will continue to drag behind other nations in the world.
Dear Nigerians, PAY ATTENTION!
This is disturbing, I can’t even sleep.
Tinubu is implementing — SAP 2.0, a program of the IMF. It will lead to premium tears.
Babangida tried it & it failed woefully.
In fact, it led to Anti-SAP Riots in 1989.
SAP caused the rapid depreciation of the Naira, inflation, widespread hunger, & cost of living crises. The protests forced IBB to call for the 1993 Presidential Election that produced MKO
BAT is implementing the same failed policies in 2026. SAP or (Structural Adjustment Program) is exploitative. It was carefully designed by the IMF & World Bank to ensnare developing nations into debt traps & neo-colonial reliance.
Chief MKO Abiola was fiercely against it.
He was vehemently against these Bretton Woods Institutions. Nigerians should know their History. “My people perish for lack of knowledge.” Bola Tinubu is out to destroy Nigeria completely. You can read more here:

@FightoryouDie@ChisomAgbafor I don't know what you mean by "her lot". I don't know what Ojukwu's wife has to do with what she said. But I do know Nigeria is not poor. We have never been. A land so blessed even before the discovery of oil. Despite the looting over the decades. It's impressive indeed...
The last time I was in Lagos I paid to enter a beach in Lekki.
Not a resort. Not a water park. A beach.
Sand. Water. A coastline that existed long before any of us were born.
Someone bought it. Fenced it. Put a gate on it. Now you pay to touch the ocean.
What kind of government sells its people access to nature?
Happy Democracy Day. 🇳🇬
Today, we concluded another partnership with Sterling Bank to launch the Sterling Bank National Mathematics Quiz. A nationwide competition designed to discover, reward, and celebrate Nigeria’s brightest young minds.
Starting Saturday, June 20, 2026, students from Primary 1 to SS3 across Nigeria will compete online every two weeks for the prizes.
1st Prize – ₦500,000
2nd Prize – ₦300,000
3rd Prize – ₦200,000
That’s ₦1,000,000 every two weeks and ₦24,000,000 every year dedicated solely to rewarding academic excellence among Nigerian children.
But this is not just about winning money.
It is about building a culture where intelligence is celebrated.
It is about giving every child, whether in Lagos, Enugu, Kano, Bayelsa, Maiduguri, Aba, or a remote village, an opportunity to compete on a national stage.
Competition Schedule
• Every two weeks
• Saturdays
• 6:00 PM – 6:20 PM
• Online nationwide
The top performers will then advance to a live championship session streamed online next day same time, where Nigerians can watch some of the country’s brightest students solve challenging mathematical problems in real time.
To ensure fairness and give more students the opportunity to benefit, every student can only win once.
And here’s what makes it even better:
Every participant will be able to review their questions after the competition, identify their weaknesses, learn from their mistakes, and prepare for the next challenge.
This means that even students who don’t win become better mathematicians.
Parents, teachers, school owners, and students should begin preparing immediately.
The questions will be tough and the competition will be fierce.
Registration is now open:

Please share this with every child, parent, teacher, school owner, principal, and education stakeholder you know.
Let’s make academic excellence prestigious again.
Guys!! It’s cold very outside! I just stepped outside my house to feel it. And if it’s this cold in Lagos, it’s colder in Ibadan and much even colder in the bushes! These children and their teachers are shivering right now! This is their 27th night! God!😭😭
