“They call him a threat. But is he really?
‘But isn’t politics all about competition? Why are we afraid of competition? If we know we’ve done well, why should we run away from facing the opposition?’”
— Asiya El-Rufai, speaking on why she believes the ruling party is after her husband.

This week, I have observed with deep concern two notable media appearances: one by my brother, Mr. Peter Obi, and the other by the family of Malam Nasir El-Rufai.
In his interview with Mr. Chude Jideonwo, Mr. Obi voiced serious worries about his personal safety and the adverse impact his role as an opposition leader has had on his businesses. Even more troubling was the Federal Government’s response, which resorted to personal insults and derogatory language instead of the restraint and maturity expected of a democratic administration.
Let me state clearly: like every Nigerian, our presidential candidate and all of us deserve the full protection of the state, not ridicule for raising legitimate concerns.
Democratic leadership requires fairness, justice, and restraint.
A government entrusted with protecting citizens should not dismiss or mock credible calls for help from any individual, including Mr. Peter Obi.
On the other hand, it was distressing to watch the wives of Malam Nasir El-Rufai publicly express the family’s anguish over his prolonged detention.
Regardless of political affiliation, Malam El-Rufai, like every Nigerian, is entitled to due process and the presumption of innocence until proven guilty by a competent court. The continued delay in granting him bail through what many perceive as stringent and unreasonable conditions is deeply concerning. As an unconvicted citizen, he deserves a fair and expeditious trial, while his health and that of his family are adequately safeguarded.
I therefore join well-meaning Nigerians in urging the Federal Government to handle these matters with transparency, accountability, and justice. These issues must not be weaponised to settle political scores.
For our democracy to truly thrive, every citizen; young or old, regardless of ethnicity, religion, or political persuasion must receive equal and equitable treatment under the law from the government that exists to protect us all. - RMK
This government ehnn... 😅
Today, President Tinubu forgot entirely the new national anthem he approved and was reciting the old national anthem.
Is this lack of planning, preparedness or zero attention to details?
Making a mistake in reciting the national anthem during a FEC meeting, is very funny sha.
(Video is the comment section).
Banditry and insecurity almost everywhere in the country.
Can’t believe we have IDPs still existing in the country.
NewsCentral are having their next Townhall in Katsina state tomorrow Thursday live and will be interviewing victims of this bandits/terrorists attacks.
This is Mr. Benjamin, and he is in charge of assessments for the International STEM Olympiad.
He said that this year's exam was the toughest ever, and for our boys to get gold, it means they are far ahead of their peers.
Nigeria has the brightest untapped brains globally.
A Wife’s Tears, A Nation’s Conscience: Let Justice Have a Heart.
I woke this morning in America and was deeply moved by an emotional viral video of Hajiya Asiya El-Rufai, prompting deep reflection on our nation’s future.
Regardless of the allegations against Mallam Nasir El-Rufai or any other citizen, justice must be transparent and fair, with reasonable bail conditions that should not be seen as punitive before trial. In a democracy governed by the rule of law, institutions exist to protect every citizen's rights, regardless of their background.
We must resist any hint of selective justice that erodes public trust and threatens national unity. Those tasked with enforcing our laws must act professionally and strictly follow due process.
Let us strive for a Nigeria where the law is paramount, and where every citizen is guaranteed dignity and justice. This is the foundation of the New Nigeria we envisage. -PO
You claim to love Nigeria.
Nigerian kids went to Rome for a global STEM competition.
And ended up victorious, winning gold medals and adjudged the best in the world.
Yet, you're finding it difficult to post the good news.
Are you sure you love this country or your love is seasonal?
After realizing Peter Obi is massively getting accepted in the core north, they sent one of them, Sherif, to come to channels tv.
But it’s too later for Sherif and his friends. Peter Obi is in the mouth of every northerner.
Nigeria will be OK!
This is Hajiya Naja’atu Muhammad from kano publicly alleged that Ali Modu Sheriff was involved in the creation of Boko Haram. Whether people agree with her or not, those statements are on record.
His Excellency Peter Obi was the only governor who criminalized terrorism irrespective of religion or ethnicity.
Regarding the claim that Peter Obi chased Northerners out of Anambra, His Excellency Engr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso has publicly stated that the allegation is false and should not be attributed to H E Peter Obi.
Public discussions should be based on verified facts rather than repeating allegations that have been disputed or are unsupported by credible evidence.
A New Nigeria is POssible and OK
One presidential candidate wants you to fry akara & sell kulikuli,
One presidential candidate has multiple wives & 30 children, he will sponsor mass weddings,
And the other one has been donating to schools & investing in education.
The choice is yours to be OK, come 2027, or not.
No amount of healing, emotional regulation, ancestral work or rituals will help you, if you choose to remain in the SAME ENVIRONMENT that continually poisons your spirit.
I watched with disappointment the recent interview granted by Senator Ali Modu Sheriff to Channels Television on Monday.
After a prolonged absence from public discourse, one would have expected that time away might have sharpened Senator Sheriff’s judgment. Regrettably, that does not appear to be the case.
In the interview, the former governor claimed that Peter Obi cannot command sizeable support in Northern Nigeria. It is curious that he has appointed himself spokesperson for the Northern masses. For the record, in his first outing on the presidential ballot, Mr. Obi secured approximately 2.8 million votes in the region — a remarkable achievement that cannot be dismissed lightly.
Given the current national hardships, the widespread consensus on the failure of the APC administration, and the addition of a strong Northern figure to the ticket who previously garnered 1.45 million votes in the region, the OK ticket remains a formidable force in Northern politics.
Even more surprising was Senator Sheriff’s assertion that the people of Kano would not vote for Mr. Obi. Let me state clearly: the good people of Kano are neither bigoted nor xenophobic. They have consistently demonstrated strong trust in the Kwankwasiyya movement and will support any credible ticket presented under its banner.
I respectfully advise Senator Sheriff that, in future national television appearances, he would do better to speak to the serious insecurity and humanitarian challenges facing his home state, rather than making divisive and poorly considered remarks.
The OK ticket currently represents the best opportunity for Nigerians to reset the country and place it on a path of competence, unity, and progress. - RMK

Aisha Buhari is very funny.
She said Buhari's biggest investment is in education.
Meanwhile, all their children attended uni in the UK and under him, out of school children increased from 10 million to 20 million.
Where exactly is this investment?
