Children, women, men, politicians, recently retired generals. No one is safe in Nigeria. Even the army seems powerless against this new menace. And unless something drastic happens, this will get even worse as elections approach.
Something is broken, and there are people actively taking advantage of the inability of the government to govern. Again, this is not a problem that you can solve with bombs. The groups are too many, too dispersed, and have too many non combatants in their camps, that just aerially bombing them all will kill far more innocent civilians than actual militants.
There is no shortcut to ending this. As long as Nigerian politicians and their friends continue stealing money meant for development, as long as they continue abdicating responsibility, non state actors will keep exploiting the loopholes. Already these non state actors are fully embedded in local economies and communities, and only because of the long absence of any sort of meaningful development. If state governors had taken rural development serious, if there were schools and hospitals and roads and functional institutions, if our forests were not permanently abandoned, then the country would stand a chance. If the federal government had shown greater interest in the country's vast, highly porous land boundaries shared with Benin, Niger, Chad, and Cameroon, then maybe.
All of this is greed, corruption and active collusion of politicians coming back to bite everyone in the rear end. Politicians are benefitting from the illegal mining, and from the criminal economies that are thriving in these rural areas. This is not just "insecurity". This is the result of the deliberate actions of those in power, from federal state to local government levels. Nigeria is just a large crime scene.
29 days in captivity, almost a month and still no response from the incompetent govt... Just pain & frustration
We are NOT moving on, Bring them home
Under Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (BAT), more commissioned officers have been slaughtered.
We lost:
1. Brigadier General Musa Uba.
2. Major General Abubakar Rabe (rtd).
3. Brig. Gen. Oseni Omoh (O.O.) Braimah.
4. Lt. Col. S.I. Iliyasu (March 2026).
5. Lt. Col. Umar Farouq (March 9, 2026).
6. Col. Aliyu Saidu Paiko. (October 2025).
7. Lt. Col. Umar Ibrahim Mairiga, (Mar 1, 2026).
Nigeria lost more “commissioned” army officers under Tinubu than under Buhari & Jonathan combined. The calamity that befell the Nigerian Army in 3 years is unimaginable.
We lost multiple camp commanders (including a Major in Damasak & others in Monguno). They fell to attacks, others fell to IEDs.
These are twenty, twenty-five, thirty & thirty-five years of active service wasted. They died so that politicians can soirée & party hard.
THE HEROES OF NIGERIA ARE NO MORE! 💔🇳🇬
An entire state can get wiped out in one night and Nigerians will go to work the next day. We’re being exposed to an insane level of violence and we’re scrolling away
Together Towards the New Nigeria That Is Possible
On this June 12, Democracy Day, I had useful meetings with my partners in the building of the New Nigeria that is Possible: our great party’s National Leader, H.E. Senator Seriake Dickson, and our party’s Vice Presidential candidate, H.E. Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso. The NDC, as a party that is barely four months old, despite the challenges, remains the party of the future, and the fruitful discussions at the meetings clearly underscore this fact.
The leaders and members of a committed political family must be willing to make sacrifices and show tolerance and accommodation, even in difficult circumstances. This shared understanding is essential for building trust, strengthening unity, and sustaining the vision we collectively hold for national transformation.
We are all committed to this goal. The NDC remains the vehicle that will convey Nigeria through purposeful, compassionate leadership, with firm commitment to productivity and democratic ideals towards the New Nigeria that is POssible. -PO
Those ones couldn’t stand a west African country lifting the AFCON.
Don’t forget, they claim not being AFRICAN.
ONLY A FOOLISH AFRICAN will support them against BRAZIL.
WE ARE MORE BRAZILIANS in our ways and culture than Morocco. 🇲🇦
WE SUPPORT BRAZIL 🇧🇷
Fight against insurgency will be difficult if Nigerians are not ready to support Nigerian armed forces

I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that Lucky Dube was killed cos he looked like a Nigerian to the killers.
That hate has been there for decades!
