Almost a week off the internet to finalise an outstanding decision for our futures.
The time is now for us to get a Nigeria we can be proud of.
Get involved and add your voice.
We are all a part of this change we seek.
Justice or Vengeance: The Case of Nnamdi Kanu
On November 20, 2025, Nigeria sentenced a man to life in prison for words spoken from foreign soil—after illegally kidnapping him from Kenya, ignoring a UN ruling demanding his release, and prosecuting him under a law that no longer exists.
Just two days earlier, on November 18, Boko Haram co-founder Mamman Nur—responsible for over 2,000 deaths—was sentenced to just five years in prison.
In Nigeria today, words from London carry a heavier penalty than mass murder.
I do not defend the inflammatory language that became the pretext for this sham trial.
But let’s be honest: his real “crime” was boldly exposing the radical Islamic jihad consuming Nigeria—and the government’s symbiotic relationship with it. That message, once controversial, is now undeniable.
This case is not about Biafra or separation. Those are issues for another day.
It is about whether any dissident, journalist, or whistleblower in West Africa is safe from abduction, torture, and indefinite detention without due process.
It is further evidence of the brutal, lawless, totalitarian nature of this genocidal regime.
These facts are not disputed:
1) Kanu was seized in Kenya in 2021—not extradited, but illegally rendered.
• Kenyan High Court Justice Anthony Mrima (June 2025):“The abduction and rendition of Mr. Kanu was a blatant violation of his fundamental rights.”
• The UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention (Opinion 25/2022): “The deprivation of Mr. Kanu’s liberty is arbitrary… The appropriate remedy is his immediate release.”
2) The United States has never designated IPOB a terrorist organization.
• U.S. State Department (on record since 2017): “We do not consider IPOB a terrorist organization.”
3) He was charged under a repealed anti-terror law, with no savings clause for pending cases.
4) The group he leads was declared “terrorist” in an ex parte proceeding—no defense was heard. Multiple Nigerian courts have ruled aspects of that designation unconstitutional.
I have personally documented the bulldozing of IDP camps in Abuja, the systematic neglect that kills daily, and the theft of blood minerals that bankroll jihad.
Silencing witnesses—whether with bulldozers or life sentences—does not erase genocide. It guarantees its spread.
America once told the world that no nation can kidnap, disappear, and jail its critics while claiming to fight terrorism. Nigeria just did exactly that—and sentenced a man to life for exposing it.
Silence now is not diplomacy. It is endorsement.

I have a sad news. Kingsley Nebo who confessed on video to have paid N1 million ($677) for the murder of Sochima Onoh in Enugu State has been released on bail by the Nigerian police.
Someone arrested for murder released on bail without charging to court?
With all due respect my brother, I disagree
I understand where you’re coming from though, the world can be cruel, and many people take advantage of kindness. But I still believe it pays to be a nice person.
Being nice doesn’t mean being weak or foolish, it means choosing character over chaos, light over darkness, and grace over bitterness.
The universe might not always reward niceness immediately, but life always honors sincerity, integrity, and genuine hearts in the long run.
So even when it hurts, keep being kind, just learn to set boundaries while doing it.
I know what I have gotten by being nice to people, yes I have been insulted and taken for granted many times but I focus more on the positives.
Nobody and no situation can change me from being a good person to a bad person. Never!!!
Shalom 🙏🏿
I hope he knows that he can’t delegate questions there to El-Rufai and Ribadu.
JD Vance will be ruthless. The Media there will be ruthless with questions.
I don’t know how someone who’s afraid to debate Atiku or Obi face to face will be able to debate JD Vance on this.
They will go all “guns-a-blazing” on him with questions
This Catholic Bishop from Nigeria has also been speaking out against Christian Genocide in Nigeria: Bishop Godfrey Onah of Nsukka Diocese. Save Christians in Nigeria now. #CatholicTwitter#Trump#Nigeria
Easier said than done bro. The aftermath of the 2020 End SARS protest broke the camel’s back for me. We’ve endured more than any people should, taking so much from a system built against us. The politicians act with impunity, the judiciary with silence and disregard for the common man. In this country, when you die for it, you die in vain and that’s the sad truth so it’s best not to die in vain.
Not read this level of economic ignorance in a while
The drilling platforms and rigs in Nigeria are Western, as are the OICs; ExxonMobil and Chevron are major players in crude oil exports from Nigeria
Game changer Dangote can't even buy Nigerian crude to feed his Nigerian refinary
The Dangote Refining uses American crude oil and also sells to America. I am sure America prefers to export crude rather than buy crude from Nigeria
Nigeria Brent Crude is traded in the Futures market in the US in USD, not Naira. You can't buy any international commodity in Naira. It's called petrodollars for a reason
The bank where you receive your oil and gas sales is JPMorgan on Wall Street
Did the Americans damage the NNPC refineries? Did America spend $b to fix Nigeria's refineries, with zero working today?
This sort of post is patriotic but far from reality
Nigeria is currently run by a lawless regime that relies on criminals and thugs more interested in enriching themselves than in taking care of their citizens. Cowboy up.
Southeast 2015–2016
The Nigerian security forces, led by the military, embarked on a chilling campaign of extrajudicial executions and violence resulting in the deaths of at least 150 peaceful pro-Biafra protesters in the south east of the country:
Following the recent commemoration of World Teachers Day, I wish to sincerely celebrate all the teachers in our dear nation, Nigeria, whose sacrifices and dedication continue to shape the future of our country. It is a day to appreciate every teacher across the country who continues to give their best to the growth and development of education in the nation.
The tireless efforts and sincere commitment of our teachers are the bedrock upon which our educational development stands. Investing in education by also investing in our teachers through training, empowerment, welfare, and a conducive work environment is critical to national development.
The teaching profession in Nigeria, unfortunately, has not received the due attention it deserves, as a critical contributor to national development. The severe shortage of teachers across the country signals a looming disaster in our education sector. A recent report from the Universal Basic Education Commission states that only about 915,000 teachers currently serve 31.8 million pupils across the country, resulting in a teacher–pupil ratio of 1:35, well above the UNESCO benchmark of 1:25. Solving such a manpower crisis in the education sector should be prioritised by a government that truly cares for the development of the nation.
Beyond the number of qualified teachers, investing in their training contributes immensely to the growth of education in the country. Our teachers deserve to be equipped with modern methodologies, advanced tools and equipment required to deliver world-class education to our children. These are all part of the investment in education, which, as I have maintained, is the best investment any nation can make for its citizens.
May I therefore, salute the courage, resilience and commitment of all the teachers in Nigeria who give their best to the nation - we see your sacrifices and we appreciate them. Your dedication to duty remains critical in building the New Nigeria we all deserve where your welfare is prioritised and your visible contribution to the nation is appreciated.
My commitment to the growth and development of education across the nation remains firm. And my promise to revolutionise education in our nation remains sure. We achieved it in Anambra state, and we will achieve it in the New Nigeria, and our dear teachers will be at the vanguard of our educational revolution in Nigeria.
Happy World Teachers’ Day to all our great educators, you are the true heroes of our nation's progress, and with you, A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
Humanity is paramount in my politics, no street urchins
Lately, I have heard a few people say that those who follow Peter Obi are low-class Nigerians, and some have even gone as far as calling them “street urchins” and people of no value. It is deeply unfortunate that in today’s Nigeria, citizens now look down on fellow citizens in such a degrading manner.
I have never and will never look down on anyone, except to lift them up. After all, we can only rise by lifting others. My involvement in politics has never been about associating with the so-called high and mighty, but about standing with the ordinary Nigerians whose voices have been silenced and whose resources have been stolen by the same “big names” who now parade themselves with all sorts of titles and names.
No Nigerian is of no value. No Nigerian is a street urchin. It speaks volumes about the state of our nation that everyday Nigerians, are now battered by poverty and hardship, to the point their leaders refer to them as of no value, and urchins.
Every Nigerian deserves dignity, opportunity, and care. That is why I will continue to do my part to ensure that the ordinary Nigerians enjoy a better life, one built on access to education, quality healthcare, and genuine efforts to lift them out of poverty.
True leadership is not about mocking the weak, it is about lifting them up.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan said on today that Boko Haram insurgents once nominated former President Muhammadu Buhari to represent them in negotiations with the federal government when his administration explored dialogue as a non-combatant approach to ending the group’s activities.
I have a policy which is that whatever you want to give to me, look for people around you who need it and give it to them.
Whatever I need God has provided for me and it's my joy that we share to other people.
I don't look down on people. Any time I look down on people it's to lift them up
- Peter Obi
We will never forget how, on September 6th, 2023, these five judges undermined the people’s will and betrayed the rule of law by delivering a compromised verdict in favor of Bola Tinubu.
