@Anambra_girl Every city in this world is known for something. You can't be a farmer in Silicon Valley and say it kills dreams. Go where your dreams match
Today, I experienced one of the most traumatic moments of my life.
I had gone to a friend’s place to lend him my MacBook charger because I stay in Ikorodu his charger had stopped working. After leaving his place and heading home, I was stopped by men who identified themselves as Nigerian police officers. They were not dressed in standard police uniforms, which made the situation even more frightening.
I was forcefully pushed into my car, accused of being a cultist without any evidence, and subjected to intimidation. My phone was searched, I was threatened, and I was repeatedly told that if I did not cooperate, I would be shot, killed, or have my car taken away.
They drove me around to different locations, including from Ikorodu to ketu under a bridge, while continuing to threaten me. Under fear for my life, I was forced to open my banking apps and make transfers. In total, about ₦700,000 was taken from my account through coercion. They wanted me to pay them 5 million which I don’t even have, They also forced me to call friends and demand money from them, insisting that I raise millions of naira despite having committed no crime.
This was not a voluntary transaction. Every action I took was because I genuinely feared for my life.
I am sharing this video because no Nigerian should have to experience this. No one should be threatened with weapons, intimidated, or forced to hand over their hard earned money by people who are supposed to protect them.
I am reporting this incident to the appropriate authorities and financial institutions, and I hope those responsible are identified and held accountable.
Please help me by sharing this until it reaches the right people. This has to stop.

Are people aware that Alex Onyia once took up a case against a school in the South West?
Instead of supporting the effort, some people relentlessly attacked him here!
Calling him names, in fact there is a popular account here with the school name calling him tribal slurs.
It eventually got to the point where those opposing the case influenced the very people he was trying to help, leading them to publicly reject and withdraw from the case, forcing him to step back.
That didn’t stop him.
Alex Onyia has consistently called out corruption in universities across the South East. He even took on the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN), publicly challenging the institution over its poor infrastructure and conditions.
Beyond speaking out, he created a platform where students can report corrupt lecturers in universities across the region. That initiative has contributed to significant reforms in tertiary institutions in Abia, Anambra, and Enugu.
Whether people agree with him on every issue or not, it’s difficult to deny that he has consistently used his platform to challenge problems in the education sector and he’s right about situating his work in South East.
The idea that if you want to go international or public acceptance then you need to include beyond South East, is an expired narrative that no longer holds water.
Jesus is Lord!
When do we Yoruba people descend to this low low low level of reasoning?
Who did this to us. This is so shameful!
How does one “corner” slot?
I join Peter Obi in calling for the Grand Master of Corruption, Bola Ahmed Tinubu to resign.
Asiwaju, you have wrecked enough damage.
@officialABAT has become a threat to the corporate existence of Nigeria. He has exported his Alpha Beta opacity to national. Seyi papa spent roughly ₦9 trillion without appropriation.
Zero accountability.
No legislative oversight whatsoever.
The money grew wings & flew away.
A man who surrounds himself with Abubakar Atiku Bagudu & Gilbert Chagoury (men who were General Abacha’s bagmen) cannot be trusted with the public finances of Nigeria.
Chagoury is the owner of HITECH, the company in charge of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road.
So far, HITECH has received almost $15 billion worth of contracts from Asiwaju. Including the latest $516.33 million syndicated Federal Government loan for the Sokoto-Badagry road.
The loan was sourced from Deutsche Bank AG & it’s supported by a partial risk guarantee from the Islamic Development Bank's insurance arm.
Inflation is mad, cost of living is killing the living. Nigerians are asked to endure & tighten their belts. You are asked to sell akara, agbado, & kulikuli. In the meantime, Nigeria’s balance sheet is becoming more & more untidy:
Debt-to-GDP Ratio is 52.9%.
Total Public Debt is ₦159.28 trillion.
Total External Debt is $51.86 billion.
2026 Projected Debt Service is ₦15.5 trillion to ₦16 trillion, or approximately $11.6 billion.
Tinubu is borrowing to fund the ₦68.32 trillion budget deficit, with debt servicing projected to consume 48% to 75% of your federal revenues.
While they gaslight you, BAT will continue to recklessly & dangerously mortgage your future. He has displaced General Sani Abacha. Asiwaju is now the undisputed King of Grand Corruption
@greagreatMU@Replay_remix Maybe to use each of those six words to form a sentence was the intention but the student was correct. The question said "use your six words to form a sentence" so the student used six of her words to form a sentence. Technically, you can't mark the student down.
Grand Corruption: Nigeria’s Greatest Threat.
The recent report from the IMF consultation further raises concerns about the scale of grand corruption under the Tinubu government. The IMF now reveals that about N8.83 trillion in expenditure undertaken in 2025 is not reflected in the budget. This expenditure is not budgeted and is therefore not under legislative oversight or administrative scrutiny. This is horrible.
N8.83 trillion is as follows:
1.About 2% of our GDP.
2.Over 35% of Nigeria’s 2025 N23.96 trillion capital project budget. In fact, the amount is more than the actual released capital funding for 2025.
https://t.co/Hta3LViCB8 is more than the entire combined budget for education (N3.52 trillion) and health (N2.38 trillion).
If such an amount is properly used and accounted for, it could transform Nigeria’s public health and education sectors. It could create hundreds of cottage industries that can provide jobs for thousands of graduates and build a solid foundation for economic development. But we cannot account for it. This is not an isolated incident.
This is a pattern of grand corruption that has become part of this administration.
We have a lot to worry about regarding the state of corruption under President Tinubu. The sort of corruption that is ingrained in total disregard of elementary rules of public finance management poses a grave danger to national security and the stability of the Nigerian state. The capture of the Nigerian state and the plunder of its resources are actions that undermine the basis of state stability and deepen poverty and state failure.
This recent revelation proves that the APC government is grossly corrupt, incompetent, and insensitive. With the growing poverty and the urgent need for significant upgrades to social and physical infrastructure, a responsible and responsive government would ensure that N8.83 trillion is prudently utilised to address these gaps. But not the Tinubu administration.
A few days ago, I called on President Tinubu to resign from office for incompetence, lack of capacity, lack of compassion, and failure to improve on his campaign promises. Some people thought perhaps the call was excessive. But with the daily revelations of pervasive corruption in this administration and its total lack of commitment to the welfare and security of Nigerian citizens, the only reasonable action is for President Tinubu to resign from office. The collapse of elementary forms of due process under Tinubu and the increased evidence of rampant looting of Nigerian public finances reinforce the need for greater accountability. It is now time for Nigerian citizens to rise within the law and hold this administration to account.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
@benin_adss@UsmanAbidemiEsq So, the constitution don't respect contracts?
So, if you apply for an organization that requires you to work on Fridays nonstop, you'll ask that you be allowed to go pray? Or as a Christian you apply to an organization that requires you work on Sundays, you won't?
@oreomints111@EPeazanjel@blaq_en_belle Did she ask for your compliment? If she wanted to, she'll ask you or ask her family members.
Why are you giving unnecessary compliment no one asked you for?
@sir_dct@KorpisahA@blaq_en_belle You seem to be thrown off balance by the grammar of the person you are replying to 🤣🤣🤣
Read what she wrote again lmao 😂
In his haste to accomplish the kinds of things no judge can do - unless he is corrupt - Isa Hamma Dashen purported to set aside his own judgment of 10 December 2025 on the belated application of a person whom he was not prepared to make party to the case.
He should be made to disclose how he was procured to do that because that is not judging. That is vandalism.

@nomindthem@F3LO_G But that was the initial plan - to post you to areas you're unfamiliar with so that we will understand other aspects of the Nigerian culture. It is just that it's been messed up, if not, NYSC would have been the best.
@RumideKunle@YusufAsunmogejo First, Alex is a private citizen using his own money and donations probably from Igbos or mostly Igbos. He is not being sponsored by the federal government.
This NYSC stuff is a government stuff, affecting everyone. It will be run with our collective tax. Know the difference.
