If you see this tweet still pinned in six months, know that the fullstack journey is progressing exactly as chaotically as expected.
Greatness from small beginnings — key word being 'small,' key word also being 'beginnings.' We haven't arrived anywhere yet.
No, it is not. Celibate Christian men are not hard to find, in fact you will even see the ones that are virgins.
They just don’t fit your aesthetics and that’s fine but they are not hard to find
Being celibate in today's world means you stay away from a lot of things.
The night parties, 'worldly' social gatherings, dates with the opposite gender, etc.
It requires being a boring person, because avoiding temptation is a very good way to avoid committing the act.
It's hanging out with cultists all day and trying to not commit crime.
Anyways, the celibate Christian men will always be boring men interested in the things of God, and God alone.
The question now, is if you've ever searched for such men or accommodated them.
I thought democracy meant that if you want to govern me and I say NO, you respect my decision and move on. Why am I having to fight you to respect my NO?
@lawychet@RealOlaudah making demands for, not even for himself. That's not sacrifice being repaid, that is succession planning. Calling me a joker doesn't change the difference.
Bye, Felicia.
@lawychet@RealOlaudah to politicians expect to be rewarded, even if it is SSA to a SSA. None are for the collective betterment of Nigeria.
A president choosing his cabinet is one thing. A party ticket is meant to be contested, not paid out as severance. And it was for the son Tanko was allegedly
So, President Tinubu has finally taken his campaign to Jos, Plateau State. This time, he went beyond the airport, unlike during the previous massacre, when he failed to visit the grieving communities.
Now that he needs their votes, he has returned with promises, telling them he is sorry he couldn't visit earlier and that he will rebuild everything.
But here is the question: Everything is “I will, I will, I will.” Is there anything Mr. President can point to and say, “I have done”?
Tinubu is campaigning as though he is not the sitting President. I also heard that some residents expressed their displeasure, with reports of people throwing objects at his convoy and rejecting his visit.
Anyway, they are Nigerians, and they have the right to express themselves. Plateau people, the ball is in your court. The choice is yours.
Enjoy your weekend!
Hear the way he broke it down
Figure by figure
Naira by Naira
Dollars by dollars
But he is incoherent because you want to listen to Obama
God will ruin you people
A man in his eighties with a dubious history, who should be spending time with his grandchildren at home is busy wrecking the country, pretending that he can govern Nigeria, and some young people whose future he is destroying are supporting him.
@lawychet@RealOlaudah This is the problem we are having in Nigeria; selfish ambitions. Everyone wants, and expects to be rewarded for the 'good' they do. Selfless service is no longer a thing in Nigeria.
The information available, both privately and publicly, shows that Dr Tanko Inusa, the former Director-General of the Obidient Movement and a close associate of Peter Obi, left the NDC and Peter Obi’s campaign for the following three reasons:
1. He wanted an NDC House of Assembly ticket for his son in a constituency in Kano State but could not secure it. His son lost out to a Kwankwasiyya member who had Senator Kwankwaso’s backing. Given that the NDC had ceded its party structure in Northern Nigeria, particularly the North-West, to Kwankwasiyya, there was little Peter Obi could do. Kwankwaso’s acceptance of the vice-presidential position was already a significant compromise. Imposing Tanko’s son on Kwankwasiyya would have created a much bigger problem.
2. He wanted to become Director-General of the Obi/Kwankwaso presidential campaign, but the party leadership, led by Senator Seriake Dickson, decided otherwise. Peter Obi had already secured the presidential ticket and the party structure in the South-East. The party does not belong to Peter Obi alone. Senator Dickson is himself a formidable politician, and other stakeholders also need representation. Peter Obi appointed Tanko as his Special Adviser on Northern Nigeria, but he was dissatisfied with the offer.
3. Dr Tanko Inusa wanted to establish a presidential campaign council for the Obidient Movement, but the party insisted that there would be only one presidential campaign council. I must admit that this was a very reasonable directive. A united campaign needs clear leadership and coordination.
Given the above, what else could Peter Obi have done to satisfy Tanko? Nothing more, in my view.
The problem with Nigerian politics is that too many people approach it for personal and financial gain rather than ideology. Politics becomes their career, and they expect to hold one strategic position or another to sustain themselves. Unfortunately, a private citizen like Obi cannot afford the luxury of satisfying everyone’s ambitions, particularly when competing against an incumbent government with far greater access to resources.
I wish Dr Tanko Inusa all the best in his future endeavours. He is a great guy and hope he returns home soon.

@TheSleemKing@Okwuanasoanya_@don_pet And he had to say it two times! Like, after the first time he said it, he was now minding his business but somehow remembered everything he went through in the hands of a woman that he had to repeat that verse again.
