Children being kidnapped from their school and held captive for more than a month, plus a teacher being killed should be something of a horror movie.
However that is the reality of some Nigerians.
This is very sad.
The most irritating people on earth right now are these false political fence-sitters. They pretend to be neutral while throwing snide remarks at Peter Obi who is not the sitting president. They have more criticism for Peter Obi than the criminal they support but don’t want to say so. Silly lots!
As a Nigerian, I find it absurd that since 2022, Peter Obi has been the only major front-runner relentlessly grilled, constantly interviewed, and forced to engage the public at every turn. Meanwhile, Atiku and Tinubu seem to glide by without facing anything close to the same scrutiny. What exactly is going on here? Do they believe they are too important to be questioned, or are their supporters simply more comfortable shielding them from accountability and public scrutiny?
Nobody hears from the president, who sits on high Mount Olympus and only graces Nigerians with carefully scripted appearances and distant press statements from Bayo Onanuga, as though leadership is a privilege to be admired from afar rather than a responsibility to be constantly examined. Atiku is no different, equally distant, equally insulated, and just as unwilling to submit himself to the kind of sustained, unscripted engagement that true leadership demands.
My Prime Minister, Carney, faces the press almost daily and endures relentless grilling from the opposition in Parliament on virtually every issue. That is what accountability looks like in a functioning democracy.
Tinubu, on the other hand, answers to no one.

Oyo state government,
Seyi Makinde what is your response
Y'all has children and you know how it feels to not seen your children for so long please I beg y'all APC GOVERNMENT do something 💔💔💔🤲
I know there are bills to pay, jobs to do, meetings to attend, weddings to celebrate, and plans to make. I know governments are working, families are carrying on, and the world refuses to stop moving. But can we please not stop talking about this?
We still have missing children.
Hope we know that TWO teachers were killed at the Oriire school terrorist attack.
We seem to only remember the beheaded teacher. Another teacher was shot point black and they blasted all his inside out!
Can we keep saying their names, and demanding answers? Because every day that passes without them is another day a family wakes up with an empty seat at the table and a wound that refuses to heal.
We still have missing children.
Every time it rains, I thnk of the 100's of Nigerians, esp children, who are outside bearing the full force of the elements. No shelter. No protection. Their little hearts breaking in terror, pain, discomfort.
Day 33 since the Oyo abductions. They are still out there.
Ọmá ṣe o!
This is now their 33rd night in the jungle as captives of terrorists!! 33 nights!!! Toddlers!!! Children!! Innocent teachers who just went to school! Ah!! 😭😭😭
Until they are found, until there are answers, until there is justice, this cannot become old news. We cannot become comfortable. We cannot become distracted.
We still have missing children.
I found myself thinking about those kidnapped children again during my evening walk today, and the sheer tragedy of their situation struck me all over again.
A month. A whole month living in the forest, away from their families, deprived of safety, certainty, and the simple comforts most of us take for granted. No child should ever have to experience something like that. (Sighing)
