Fellow Nigerians, good morning.
I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you.
Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry daily—the private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances.
We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the people—a society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal.
More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism.
We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishness—a system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power.
Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise.
Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them.
However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building.
Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in one’s own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated.
And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions.
There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline?
Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from.
Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all.
A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO
JAMB can he held 4 times a year, every quarter and the result could last for two Admission seasons..
We would stop killing our kids because they want to get into higher institutions of learning.
@JAMBHQ@SPNigeria@NGRPresident@officialABAT@ARISEtv
We cannot be loosing kids and children every year to boat mishaps, kidnapping, accidents and wondering -because of how and when you do Tertiary Exam every year.
Do you know what a child cost a parent and family.

Judas ate with God for three years and never flinched.
Sat at the fire. Said the prayers. Watched blind men see. Watched dead men stand up. Watched lepers get clean skin back. Saw all of it. Touched all of it.
And it did nothing to him.
That should make you sick.
Because you know men like that. You’ve sat next to them in church. They sing the hymns. They say amen. They put the money in the plate. And they go home and do things in the dark that would get them killed in any century but this one.
Jesus called him a devil. Not after the betrayal. Before it. John 6:70. He looked at twelve men and said one of you is a devil. And then He let the devil stay.
He let him hold the money. Let him sit at the table. Let him hear every parable. Let him watch Lazarus walk out of a tomb.
And Judas saw resurrection with his own eyes and thought, what’s that worth in silver?
That’s not weakness. That’s not a man who lost his way. That’s a creature wearing human skin at the table of God, calculating the price of the blood on his plate.
Jesus washed his feet.
Read that again.
God kneeled in front of the thing that was about to murder Him and washed the dirt off its feet.
Not because Judas deserved it. Because the eleven men watching needed to see what love looks like when it’s aimed at something that will never love you back.
That’s the sermon your pastor won’t preach.
That Jesus didn’t die confused. He didn’t die betrayed. He sat across from a devil, broke bread, and said what thou doest, do quickly.
He gave evil permission to finish.
Because the cross was never Plan B.
And the son of perdition was never a surprise.
He was a prop in a story written before the foundation of the world. A creature who thought he was the predator and turned out to be the instrument.
The tomb didn’t stay shut.
But the field Judas bought with his thirty pieces? His guts are still in the dirt.
Someone sent me this clip. He is a Kenyan gentleman, Hinn Welamond Walubengo. He uses @wofbec for a strategy session. I like some of the points he made particularly the first one.
It shows @wofbec is shaping culture.
Happy birthday to our father Daddy G.O Pastor E.A Adeboye.

I didn’t see it trend .
Of course, why will it trend?
He didn’t commit any abomination .
When it comes to insulting and criticizing Fathers of faith, every media house will carry it for 1week and it will trend on all timelines.
When you see them do anything worthy of commendation , everywhere will go cold like a grave yard.
@ruffydfire There is no point arguing with someone who will not see any other perspective.
Good debate does not mean common sense.
The pedestal bridge is the only access across over 3km from Guinness bridge flyover to Airport flyover.
It constitutes serious risk to life for anyone late.
