@smkollere @ChuksEricE That's a lie. Flooding hit Abuja in 2019 and in 2022 as well. You guys just have very short memory

Aliko Dangote talks about the level of corruption in Africa.

He says it's blown out of proportion. There's corruption but it doesn't stop people from doing genuine business.

He also says Africans should invest more in Africa. Rather than wait for foreign investors.

They said Africa's elite fly out for healthcare. Nigeria just built the reason to fly in . ✈️
The African Medical Centre of Excellence(AMCE) is live. Nigeria to the World isn't just a slogan anymore, it's a destination. 🇳🇬🔥

[Defense News Nigeria @DefenseNigeria]

When you hear utterances like "the military men are the unknown gunmen," followed by such simplistic, kindergarten level analysis in the presence of military officials, and the audience applauding, you begin to wonder whether the purpose of the event was genuinely to engage on security issues, or simply to smear and undermine the military.

When institutions that should uphold expertise begin rewarding ignorance with prestigious platforms, you know our society is being dumbed down. This is such a low point.

Please fact-check me: After President Goodluck Jonathan partially removed fuel subsidy, Nigeria's GDP almost doubled and peaked at $514 billion. By 2014, Nigeria was the world's 22nd-largest economy. By 2015, we were the third-fastest-growing economy on Earth.

But when General Buhari reintroduced full subsidy, Nigeria went from the world's third-fastest-growing economy to suffering two recessions, and by the end of Buhari's tenure, our GDP, which was $514 billion in 2014, had shrunk to less than half that.

Some Nigerians tend to be very forgetful. They forget that when we had fuel subsidy, our people faced acute fuel shortages and slept at petrol stations because 25 million litres per day, out of Nigeria's supposed daily consumption of 66.9 million litres, were smuggled out to neighbouring countries.

If you subsidise fuel in Nigeria, the petrol will leave this country for our neighbours.

Under Buhari, Nigeria exhausted our foreign reserves on fuel subsidies, to the point where we could not fund the importation of essential commodities or their local manufacturing.

Nigerians forget that foreign airlines pulled out of Nigeria, and one of the largest grocery stores in the country, Shoprite, pulled out in 2021, along with other firms too numerous to mention.

Two of the world’s largest banks, HSBC and UBS, pulled out of Nigeria citing lack of policy stability over fuel subsidies and FX.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities went on national strikes for a total of 628 days under Buhari because the Federal Government couldn't pay lecturers a living wage. And why was that?

Because as of 2022, the Buhari administration was spending ₦18.397 billion per day on fuel subsidies for a total of almost $10 billion per annum. And while the government was spending ₦18 billion each day on fuel subsidy, it was only spending ₦2.7 billion per day on education.

After President Tinubu has added $67 billion to our GDP in just two years, and resolved all of these challenges in Nigeria, by ending fuel shortages, making Nigeria the largest exporter of petroleum products in West Africa, fixing the FX regime and stabilising the Naira thereby making the Nigerian Stock Exchange the most profitable on Earth, bar none, according to Bloomberg, ending ASUU strikes, and making Nigeria the top destination for Foreign Direct Investment in Africa, you want to bring back fuel subsidy?

Really?

This is not about political parties or individuals. This is a patriotic call to action. The only thing that can happen if Nigeria returns to fuel subsidies is the economic destruction of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Immediately after Nelson Mandela was freed from Prison, one of the first place he touched down was Nigeria.

In this picture, Mandela is received by then Nigerian Head of State Ibrahim Badomosi Babangida.

Mandela thanked Nigeria PUBLICLY for ALL its support for him and the ANC.

Within a 35yr period, Nigeria gave South Africa $61 Billion equivalent today in SARF. It was the highest by any single nation in the world towards South Africa's struggle to end 'white minority rule' i.e apartheid.

Nigerian students skipped meals to donate towards South African struggle.

Nigeria boycotted 1976 Olympics and 1979 common wealth games in protest over Black South African PERSECUTION.

Nigeria refused selling oil to South Africa minority rule. A solidarity decision that cost Nigeria $41 in potential revenue.

Nigeria trained South Africa PAC freedom fighters

Nigeria hosted over 300 ANC leaders and issued South Africans passports that enabled them travel to countries to lobby against apartheid.

Nigeria offered asylum to SA activist, provided free education to SA students.

Nigeria went all in for South Africa. Exactly how a big brother protects his younger brothers.
Some people believe that without Nigeria, perhaps South Africa might still be in that bondage. They still suffer from another bondage, but let me NOT digress.

Nigeria was THE FOREMOST supporter of South Africa's liberation struggle.

[Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT]

The Hausa people are great pillars that play a vital role in the unity and progress of Nigeria.
The Hausa language, without doubt, has flourished and has become a major language of unity and commerce across the world.

I congratulate the vast Hausa community on the occasion of Hausa Day, which is being celebrated at the historic Daura Palace today.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu
President

[Àkànní @idofoi]

When Senator Abdulaziz Yari was appointed Director-General of the APC Presidential Campaign for 2027, his first move was deliberate and strategic: he went straight to Femi Otedola in France.

And since touching down back in Nigeria just hours ago, he has been on the ground nonstop, moving from one northern community leader to another, quietly building, consulting, solidifying structures, and locking in support for President Tinubu’s re-election. No cameras. No theatrics. Just work.

Meanwhile, the so-called opposition remains locked in a room, microphones on, cameras rolling, turning their own meeting into a live comedy special. They take turns embarrassing one another, posturing for the lens, and putting on a free show for young lawyers who are already licking their lips, waiting for the millions that will come from the inevitable, pointless tribunal circus they plan to stage after they lose.

Sowore, Peter Obi, Rotimi Amaechi and the rest of the cast delivered exactly as expected: pure, unfiltered unseriousness. They have shown, once again, that they are not presidential contenders, they are professional entertainers who mistake media stunts and courtroom fantasies for actual politics.

Senator Yari has started on a serious note.
President Tinubu will win the January 2027 election.

I went out to eat with friends one night at a restaurant in Asokoro.

We came for dinner.

But a little boy walked in carrying the hunger of an entire family.

He approached our table to beg for money. Instead of giving him money immediately, I asked the waiter to seat him at a table of his own, serve him a bottle of Malt and allow him to order whatever food he wanted.

The waiters initially looked surprised, but I insisted: “Please attend to him properly. He is a customer.”

He ordered a plate of pounded yam.

He ate only a little and then asked for the rest to be packed.

I called him and asked, “Why are you packing your food? Are you already full?”

His answer broke me.

He said he had five siblings and a mother waiting at home in Apo village.

Even with food before him, his first thought was not himself. It was the six people waiting at home.

I told him, “Finish your own food. You will not need to divide it.”

Then I ordered additional meals for his mother and siblings and gave him some money.

But beyond the food and money, I wanted him to leave that restaurant with his dignity intact.

I made sure the waiters attended to him respectfully, served him at his own table and treated him like every other paying customer.

He left carrying food for his family and praying for me.

I was the one who felt blessed.

Sometimes, the person asking for very little is carrying the needs of an entire family.

Many people do not need pity. They need help without humiliation, kindness without cameras and generosity that preserves their dignity.

Be kind. Your small act of kindness may travel farther than you will ever know.

That little boy entered the restaurant as a beggar.

He left as a valued customer.
