🇳🇬🤝🏽 The NFF have agreed a new deal with Adidas worth $8.5m annually.

The partnership will provide $4.5m in cash and $4m worth of equipment and kits for Nigeria’s national teams, following the end of the current Nike contract.

Instead of fixing the existing roads Nigerians are suffering on every day, Bola Tinubu jumped onto a glory-hunting coastal highway project that has barely moved beyond 34km after more than three years, despite over ₦136 billion already spent.

Even more disturbing, the project was approved without competitive bidding, while his son sits on the board of the construction company involved.

Lagos needs a leader who sees human beings, not just tax revenue. From housing to transport, GRV is the blueprint for a modern, livable mega-city where hard work actually guarantees a decent life. #EkoEDide #GRV2027 #VoteGRV

He removed fuel subsidy to free up more resources for silly/dull people who should naturally not be holding public office.

These same people won’t also allow us to choose our own leaders through the ballot, meanwhile he & his supporters expects us to hold the people who we didn’t vote for accountable.

A Tale of a dysfunctional country!!

[iDAN 🦸🏽 @dangbanamanager]

The atmosphere in the markets, schools, workplaces and homes does not favour Tinubu or APC.

Argue, insult, trend hashtags and manufacture narratives all you want, but you cannot gaslight Nigerians out of what they experience daily.

Reality is speaking louder than propaganda.

If it is not demonic wickedness, why should Lagos owe pensions? https://t.co/0e0OSAVn4S

@segomotosho We need a governor who will stand up to predatory real estate practices and build actual social housing that a minimum-wage worker can afford. GRV is the right man 💪

100 bags of cement in May 2023: ₦380,000.

100 bags of cement in Aug 2026: ₦1,250,000.

That’s 229% inflationary increase in price.

Deputy Gov. of Lagos told you to live with your parents for now. Don’t think of renting a house!

Not bad for the Bold Reforms !!!!

[Channels Television @channelstv]

A Nigerian who has a vehicle with a 100-litre fuel tank will have to pay N130k, which is almost twice the minimum wage, meaning N70,000 [minimum wage] paid to a Nigerian can only afford him half a tank for his vehicle, no rent, no food, no medicals...nothing.

Beyond Football: The Match for a Better Nigeria

This weekend, Europe comes alive again with football. Millions of Nigerian youths will be glued to television screens, streaming matches, debating tactics, celebrating victories, and admiring the organisation, discipline, and excellence that make European football the envy of the world. But here is a question worth asking: Why can’t Nigerian football be just as good?

The answer is not a lack of talent. Nigeria has produced world-class footballers who have excelled in Europe because they found systems that reward merit, invest in infrastructure, ensure security, and are governed with competence and accountability. Great football does not exist in isolation. It grows where there is good governance.

The stadiums, academies, transport systems, healthcare, security, electricity, and institutions that support football are products of leaders who make the right choices and citizens who insist on accountability. Nigeria has the talent. What we have lacked is leadership that creates an enabling environment for that talent to flourish.

As I have decided, in the next 150 days, to engage Nigerian youths wherever they gather—in town halls, campuses, online spaces, and even football communities—my message is simple: The future you admire in Europe can be built in Nigeria. But it starts with your vote.

Imagine a Nigeria where our local league is competitive, our stadiums are full every weekend, our clubs attract sponsorship, our coaches receive proper training, and young footballers no longer see emigration as their only path to success.

Nigeria will not emerge through wishful thinking. It will emerge when young Nigerians decide that elections matter as much as football matches. Every goal scored in Europe is a reminder that excellence is possible. Every well-managed league is proof that systems work when honest leadership is in place.

The 2027 presidential election is therefore more than a political contest. It is an opportunity for Nigerian youths to choose the kind of country they want—a nation that exports talent because it is respected, not because its citizens are escaping failed governance.

Cheer for Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, PSG, Inter, AC Milan, or any club you support. Enjoy every match. But when the final whistle blows, remember that the greatest match awaiting Nigerian youths is not in Europe. It is in Nigeria.

It is the match for good governance. It is the match for jobs, security, education, sports development, and national renewal. And unlike football, where only twenty-two players are on the pitch, every Nigerian youth has a place in this match.

Stand up. Mobilise. Vote. Defend your vote.

If Nigerian youths can passionately follow European football every weekend, they can also passionately build a Nigeria where our own football—and our nation—becomes a source of pride.

The journey towards better Nigerian football begins with the path to good governance. And the path to good governance begins with the decision of Nigerian youths to stand up and be counted in 2027.

Every weekend, starting today, I will come to you with a reminder of January 16, 2027, and our future. We can create world-class standards right here at home.

It’s in your hands, and that new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

Fellow Nigerians,

The campaign period gives every citizen an opportunity to join the national conversation. I urge Nigerians to examine each candidate’s record and proposals, ask tough questions, and demand evidence behind every promise.

We should debate ideas without hatred, compete without violence, and disagree without weakening the bonds that unite us. When Nigerians make their choice, that choice must be respected.

Democracy does not end on election day. Citizens must continue to demand transparency, accountability, and results from those entrusted with the mandate to govern.

Nigeria’s challenges are real, but so are its opportunities. We have the people, resources, enterprise, and creativity to build a safer, more productive country. Our task is to turn these possibilities into results. We have the credentials, experience, and record to collaborate with Nigerians on this transformative journey.

Our journey will be harder if we do not unite as one people and one nation. A united Nigeria, guided by shared purpose and a commitment to fairness, justice, and equity, will make transformation easier, strengthen our institutions, and help us hold our leaders accountable.

Finally, the 2027 election must be guided by capacity, competence, compassion, character, and commitment. Our campaign will focus on the urgent concerns of Nigerians and not on ethnicity or religion. Nigerians must reject and disregard any campaign driven by propaganda, ethnicity, religion, elitism, or cronyism.

As my team and I travel across the country, we will listen to Nigerians, understand their needs and concerns, and assure them that we have the competence, character, and compassion to lead and reset Nigeria for the benefit of all.

Nigerians deserve leaders who will engage them, listen to their concerns, and present clear solutions to unite the country, defeat insecurity, pull people out of poverty, drastically reduce hunger and the number of out-of-school children, improve education and healthcare, and build growth that serves everyone, especially the most vulnerable. Every candidate must be willing to present their credentials, defend their records, and subject their vision to open scrutiny.

No candidate should hide behind the high walls of power, send proxies or surrogates to the hustings, and expect Nigerians to entrust them with the leadership of the country. Every candidate seeking the presidency must have the courage to come before the people, answer their questions, defend their records, and subject their vision to public scrutiny.

True leadership requires presence and empathy. No one can lead from the front without standing with communities across Nigeria devastated by banditry, criminality, terrorism, and flooding. You cannot truly lead people you are unwilling to visit, listen to, and understand.
