“I have no business with tribalism, I just know that Peter Obi won’t st£al and he also won’t allow other people running the government to st£al. Why won’t Nigeria be Ok ? Why won’t the country move forward? Nigeria will work as long as we don’t have thiev£s as leaders”
- Actor Laide Olabanji
Ferran Soriano has insisted his video sent to #ManCity staff about the independent commission’s verdict on Premier League rule breaches was “all me” and there was no AI involved.

Spending big wasn’t “cheating” until Manchester City started winning. 👀
Ferguson’s United broke their transfer record 7 times:
Keane. Cole. Stam. Yorke. Van Nistelrooy. Verón. Ferdinand.
Three record fees in 2001–02 alone.
No “financial doping” outrage.
No relegation talk.
No moral panic.
Funny how the rules suddenly got serious when City started lifting trophies. 💙
“Wike I’m telling you that Abuja is Obi the last time,
THIS TIME, we will win and APC will not get 25% in Abuja…..”
— Isaac Fayose boasts back at Wike.
They’re trying to ruin our reputation, they’re racially abusing us, they’re hurling insults at us and they’re still begging us for trophies but guess what? We still Remain the Best club in the world and the BIGGEST Club in England #Mcfc
If you call Man City “cheats” or a “corrupt club,” it’s simply because:
1. You wish your club was like Man City.
2. You haven’t seen your club lifting enough trophies.
3. You’re paid to hate them.
4. They keep beating your club.
5. You’re an Arsenal fan.
6. You’re a United fan.
But we’re bigger than the noise. We’ve come too far to fall off now.
Keep talking. We’ll keep winning. 💙🩵 CTID.
🚨Pep Guardiola on Rui Pinto:
🗣️“Rui Pinto should focus on getting a proper job instead of constantly trying to tarnish my image.
If he has evidence, he should present it through the proper legal channels.
I will not allow my reputation to be destroyed by accusations made on social media.
Manchester City and I have nothing to fear from anyone.
People should stop confusing allegations with proven facts.
Football should be decided on the pitch and legal matters should be handled in court.
I hope he chooses a different path and stops using Manchester City name for attention.”
Quinn Emanuel have represented Google, Samsung, Jay-Z, Elon Musk, FIFA and the Academy Awards. Bro, this is about to get ugly. Those are the big dawgs. Premier League, the WAR has begun.
Florentino Pérez Speaks on Manchester City’s ongoing case: 🗣️
“I have always been a fan of Manchester City, especially under Pep Guardiola’s regime. I respect them a lot… just like Real Madrid.
And for the charges against them, they will come through. Real Madrid have experienced that before, and I know what it feels like.”
🚨 Florentino Pérez Speaks on Manchester City’s 115 Charges:
🗣️I have always been a fan of Manchester City, especially under Pep Guardiola’s regime. I respect them a lot… just like Real Madrid.
And for the charges against them, they will come through. Real Madrid have experienced that before, and I know what it feels like.
The truth is Manchester City have genuinely broken rival fans.
Man United, Arsenal and Liverpool fans have spent years praying for our downfall and finally thought this was their moment. The obsession with this club is actually insane.
I won’t speak too much yet, but one thing I know about Manchester City is that we’ll fight this until the very end.
I still believe these charges will be overturned. Bookmark this tweet.
🚨Abu Dhabi United Group breaks its silence
“The last four years have been a struggle. Questionable readings of our investment have produced serious losses, driven by the FA charges against Manchester City.
We want this clear. At no point did we knowingly make a sham contribution or a sham contract to anyone at the club. The group provided services and financial support for the running of the club, and for payments due to associate parties. That is what an owner does.
We have issued statements. We have opened channels with the English FA.
Certain elements inside the association are now bent on damaging the reputation of this group. That will not stand.
City have been dragged into this and have already taken significant losses. We have continued to support the club and to put money in, so the operation stays stable.
Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan has never paid for, or acknowledged, fraudulent activity.
We are disappointed. We will fight this case, and we will fight anyone whose aim is to ruin that reputation.
We found the club, and the city around it, in a poor state. The question was simple: how do you make something good out of that. Manchester is cleaner, stronger, and more important in this country than it was.
Our investment should be respected and protected. We will use every legal option open to us. Our partners are ready.”
Alhaji Atiku Abubakar @atiku has again demanded the immediate release of former Kaduna State Governor and Deputy Chairman of the ADC Presidential Campaign Council, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, @elrufai and others he described as political prisoners. That call is not politeness. It is a line in the sand.
El-Rufai has spent months in custody without conviction. Courts have granted bail. Conditions have been made so heavy that liberty becomes a paper promise. That is not how a democracy treats an opponent it is not afraid of. If he is no threat, release him. If the case is strong, try him in the open and let Nigerians see the evidence. Detention that stretches into seasons starts to look like punishment before judgment.
Selective justice is not justice. You cannot keep one man off the field while others facing similar allegations walk, campaign, and contest. Due process is not a favour you give only to friends of power. Every Nigerian is entitled to presumption of innocence, dignity, and a fair shot at liberty unless a court has found otherwise.
Atiku is right to keep saying it: release El-Rufai. Release the others held as political prisoners. Let the ballot, not the cell, decide who has the mandate.
#FreeElRufaiNow
Wike dares Nigerians!
He said he will win the FCT for Tinubu and if he doesn't he will resign.
Presently, Wike is the most notorious election rigger in Nigeria. What is in the IREV till date showed he couldn't even win his LGA, Obiakpor in 2023 presidential election but he got INEC to dubiously announce rigged result. He is banking on doing samething again and even worse.
As we speak, Wike has no electoral value on the street and amongst the people. He is presently one of the most hated politicians in Nigerica for his arrogance and gansterism. What Wike is presently banking on is rigging via thuggery, coercion, vote buying, bribing of INEC, using security agents to intimidate voters and all manner of electoral ills and fraud.
Nigerians, Wike has spat on our faces enough. It's time to retire him permanently from politics.
