We've beaten France in a friendly before, so no be new thing.
This is a more impressive victory btw. Nigeria vs. Argentina 2017. We came back from two goals down to wallop them 4–2 in a friendly. So do the calms before you underestimate the Super Eagles.
The abduction of the Chibok girls in 2014 triggered a global movement. One school abduction was enough to unite Nigerians, attract international attention, and place enormous pressure on the government through the #BringBackOurGirls campaign.
Yet, what has happened since then should trouble every Nigerian.
Under President Buhari's eight years in office, Nigeria witnessed about ten school abductions. Under President Tinubu's administration, in just three years, we have already recorded over ten school abductions.
Despite these repeated tragedies, there has been neither sustained national outrage nor significant international attention comparable to what followed Chibok.
This raises an important question: have we become so accustomed to insecurity that what once shocked our national conscience is now treated as normal?
At a time when millions of Nigerians are grappling with insecurity, poverty, and hardship, it is deeply troubling that those in power appear more focused on political calculations and preparations for the next election than on addressing the urgent challenges confronting our people.
It is, therefore, no surprise that some observers have labelled us a "Now Disgraced Nation". While we do not agree with any attempt to define our great country by its present difficulties, we must acknowledge that persistent insecurity, economic hardship, and leadership failure have damaged our reputation and standing among nations.
The answer is not denial, propaganda, or political distraction. The answer is leadership that is competent, compassionate, accountable, and genuinely committed to the welfare and security of the Nigerian people.
The Nigerian youth must not become indifferent. We must all refuse to normalise failure.
Young Nigerians - Take back your country!
A New Nigeria is Possible. -PO

South Africans are funny. There is no fake love between Ghana and Nigeria, we banter always. Ghanaians drag Nigerians, Nigerians drag Ghanaians. Any country that tries to drag either country we will come together and cook them together 👍🏾
1. Atiku Abubakar is broke (full stop).
2. He was financially decimated by Buhari, who wanted to ensure he would no longer have a large war chest to fund an election.
3. Buhari achieved this through Hadiza Usman, who frustrated Intels, a company co-owned by Atiku.
4. In 2021, Atiku sold his shares in Intels and used the money to run in the 2023 PDP primary election. Gov. Wike made sure Atiku spent big in PDP primaries by paying $30,000 per delegate.
5. Atiku who was fully extorted, needed a sitting governor to open his state treasury to co-fund his 2023 campaign, and Gov. Okowa came in handy.
6. Records show that Gov. Okowa borrowed N30,000,000,000 from three banks, Zenith Bank, UBA, and Access Bank. That was the money used for Atiku’s presidential campaign in 2023.
6b. EFCC records shows that Okowa could not show which project swallowed the last minute loan he took from 3 banks in 2022 using Delta state allocation as security.
7. Atiku’s remaining businesses, like America a university of Nigeria, Adama Beverage Limited, Gotel Communications, and Prodeco Nigeria Limited, cannot provide Atiku with the funds needed for the 2027 election, so he's looking for another “Okowa.” Sadly, that option is now limited.
8. Atiku has 25 voracious children waiting for food to be ready. Potential 25 Seyi Tinubu’s. Can Nigeria survive it? No!
9. Bottom line is: what we've seen Tinubu do will be child’s play compared to what Atiku will do if he becomes president.
10. A man who’s badly financially decimated and damaged, who has sold many assets and liquidated numerous businesses in his quest for the presidency, will first recover his investments before doing anything else.
11. If Tinubu, with Lagos treasury in his hands, is still hustling and scavenging the nation like a hungry vulture, imagine what Atiku will do.
12. Peter Obi remains Nigeria’s only real option. He's not broke. He's not hungry. He will not thief up your money.
13. This cannot be said about Atiku and Tinubu.
14. May God save us from Atiku and Tinubu.

Elections are coming and this is one of the British state's contributions to keeping Nigerians plugged into the deliberately-inflamed electoral merry-go-round.
If they can successfully ignite a rhetorical 'dumb blackie vs indoctrinated blackie vs poor blackie' social media civil war, they know the blackies will all be too busy fighting each other or trying to put out the fire to have the actual conversation that matters - that Nigeria needs total societal upheaval and physical rebellion to uproot their puppets who are never going to relinquish power through an 'election'.
The only meaningful response is to completely blank it and refuse to give it airtime.
Because after you saw this same BBC openly publish an article claiming that "Chicago State University certified that Tinubu’s certificate is not a forgery" - when literally THE EXACT OPPOSITE is what happened, why on earth are you still allowing it have access to your eyes and ears?
Is it BDSM that is worrying you people? Why don't you see what is so obvious in front of you?
