[🎙OLUOMO OF DERBY 🇳🇬 🇬🇧🇬🇭 🇿🇼 @Oluomoofderby]

One day, we need to have an honest conversation about whether Northern and Southern Nigeria were ever truly meant to function as one nation.

History shows that what we now call Nigeria was brought together during the Amalgamation of Nigeria in 1914, not because of shared identity, but for colonial convenience.

Since then, we have tried to build unity but the deep cultural, religious, and political differences remain difficult to ignore.

If you look at places like North Korea and South Korea, you see how regions with shared history still ended up going separate ways due to ideological and systemic differences.

It raises a serious question: is forced unity always the best path, or does it sometimes create more tension?

In Nigeria today, one of the most painful realities is that people still lose their lives over issues like blasphemy, belief, and identity. No society should normalize violence in the name of religion or culture. A nation should protect life first above all differences.

This is not about promoting division, but about asking difficult questions: Are we truly building a nation where everyone feels safe, equal, and respected? Or are we holding on to a structure that continues to create friction and injustice?

Perhaps the real conversation is not just whether we should stay together, but how we can create a system united or otherwise where human life, dignity, and freedom are non-negotiable.

A policeman shot me in 2011. The bullet shattered my hand. The Federal High Court said they must pay for the reconstructive surgery.

That was over ten years ago.

The police have ignored the order. I am left with two wounds: one in my hand, one in my soul from the injustice.

I need reconstructive surgery for my livelihood and my family's sake. The police refuse. Will you stand with me?

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

We are at Vatican City.

Our boys and their teachers are having a great experience here.

Any child or teacher, regardless of background, nationality or tribe, can experience this if they win in any category of the South East Maths Olympiad 2027.

[Chief Nwachinemelu 👑 @odogwu_ogidi]

Tunde rose to fame on the gullibility of the kids in the slum using Chess. A noble course, right? Fine!

Instead of amplifying the social services across other zones, he started hobnobbing with the politicians, became more money-conscious (said he “wants to be so rich”), produced a chess board that he sold pretty expensive, and only gifted to certain people.

When he was asked why he didn’t gift Peter Obi, you already know what he said. You people defended him and didn’t see his selective “goodwill” as being tribalistic, after all he produced it with his personal money. Fine. Business is business.

However, Alex who spent over $50k (could be more) of his own money to send the brilliant kids to Rome for the Science and Math Olympiad is being dragged. His own money, his choice.

You people will choke on the bile of your own hypocrisy.

[Polyglot adedeji Odulesi @polyglotodulesi]

I just came from Campus where I went to visit my daughter. I owe her admission to God and the effort of one man, Alex Onyia. He challenged JAMB for failing students from Lagos and Southeastern States.

Fortunately, JAMB admitted their error and exams were rewritten. My daughter who had previously scored 179, later scored 299 which gave her straight admission for her chosen course of study.

Alex Onyia organized the successful South East Maths Olympiad where three students Egejurum Onyedikachi, Onwubiko Chimdiebube and Don-Anele Munachimso emerged as champions. They won cash prizes in millions together with their teachers. Many corporate organizations were partners.

The students are currently competing on a global stage at the International STEM Olympiad Grand Finale happening in Rome from July 2nd - 8th.

This is not the effort of the Federal Government of Nigeria or a State Government or Local Government. It is the effort of just one man with support from the citizenry - Alex Onyia!

[The Alte-Verse @thealteverse]

May fools not being more in population in Nigeria....how we got to this level of idiocy as a nation is shocking God bless you @winexviv

[Kalu Aja @FinPlanKaluAja1]

When I suggested appointing Alex as Minister of Education, someone replied that he should first start in Anambra.

He has.

This exposure of the STEM and Math Olympiad is a blessing in disguise; something tells me that the next competition will attract more participants and more private sponsors.

I also hope the same pressure being applied to a private individual will also be exerted on the State and Federal governments to sponsor a delegation from Nigeria.

Nigerian students and teachers are the ones who gain the victories.

Tunde Onakoya teaches chess only to the kids from the Southwest, and has taken them abroad. We were happy and celebrated him for doing a great job.

Alex Onyia is pushing for Science and Math Olympiad in the Southeast, and has taken those kids abroad. Alex is now the tribal bigot.

Hypocritical idiots.

And Ezemmuo knows it is not a scam as scams are commonly defined....

[Dr Joe Abah, OON @DrJoeAbah]

Everyone I’ve spoken with who is currently serving in government has told me that this Prince Adeniyi case is simply a scam, but when I start asking questions, none of them has been able to answer.

Yes, you can forge an appointment letter and claim that you are a DG but appointment letters are signed by the SGF not the COS. Who allegedly issued his appointment letter or what signature is his allegedly forged appointment letter showing?

Someone higher than a DG must ask that you be allocated office space in the Federal Secretariat. Who made that request?

Someone higher than a DG must write asking that you be given an alleged take-off grant. You cannot yourself write to the Budget Office and the Office of the Accountant General that you should be given a take-off grant. Who allegedly wrote?

How did the agency get into the budget?

Usually, you will go for budget defence as part of a cohort. In this case, it will probably be as part of the State House cohort. Who defended or coordinated the defence of the budget estimates before the National Assembly before they were appropriated?

Did the guy earn a salary in the more than one year he was there? If so, who documented him and asked that he be paid?

With which money was the guy running the office for more than one year if nothing was allegedly released?

Who allegedly wrote to the CBN asking them to open an account for the ‘Council’? The ‘Council’ cannot just walk into CBN and ask to open an account, as if it’s a commercial bank looking for customers.

Who allegedly approved the ‘Council’s’ manning levels and who allegedly approved the waiver to recruit 300 staff?

Was the guy allegedly really that good? Or were there egregious failings at multiple points in the system?

These questions and more are often met with deafening silence. Everyone sighs heavily and uses the ubiquitous expression “Na waa.” Me sef, I sigh heavily and answer “Na real waa!”

This is a case of the proverbial tse tse that has landed on the scrotum. Leave it and it will cause sickness and pain. Swat it and it will cause pain because of its location.

Anyhow you look at it, there are questions begging for answers. And whatever the answers will be, they will not be good.

Still, I hope that there’ll be some answers soon…for the sake of our public administration system.

Nigerian journalism is in the gutter. This is a story that should be investigated by journalists themselves and they are discussing it as if they are reporting gossip and reading out tweets. Journalism is not peddling gossip and discussing it like they are The View.

Someone needs to explain to Nigerians how the Federal Government approved the recruitment of 300 staff members for a ‘fake’ presidential council.
