The suffering of Nigerians should never become a Political Achievement.
Trekking to work, skipping meals, and struggling with basic necessities are not signs that a government is succeeding.
Bola Tinubu is a failure and does not deserve a Second Term.
By Making Excuses for Unverified Certificates, We Are Planting Poison in the Soul of Our Society
A nation that tolerates unverified academic credentials at any level of leadership, regardless of who is involved, risks destroying the very standards upon which a society is built. The issue is not about an individual. It is about standards, accountability, and the values we choose to pass on to the next generation.
We cannot continue to excuse blurred, missing, questionable, or unverified credentials simply because they belong to someone we support. The process through which people attain positions of responsibility matters greatly. How we get into leadership is as important as what we do with leadership.
If we normalise the abandonment of basic verification today, tomorrow we may have professors who never attended a university, doctors who never studied medicine, and judges who never studied law.
That is the dangerous precedent we must never allow. Nigeria cannot sacrifice its future on the altar of today's transactional politics. We must build a society where truth is not partisan, standards are not negotiable, and accountability applies equally to everyone.
History will judge us not only by those we defended, but by the principles we were willing to defend. We must choose truth over convenience, standards over sentiments, and the future over political expediency.
A New Nigeria is possible, but only if we are willing to do the right thing, even when it is inconvenient. -PO
As a man, understand that not every woman you try to woo will like you back. Accept that reality and know peace. Learn to recognize when the interest isn’t mutual, bow out gracefully, and move on. Don’t hang around wasting your damn time trying to force what simply isn’t there.
I’ve realised that a good number of you are not looking for lovers, you have a script in your head and you’re looking for an actor to come and play that role!
Adaobi sums it up perfectly. Yes, fans can vent their frustrations when their stars don't deliver, but fans have to be less scathing with some of their comments.
Some comments are too harsh, brutal and pierce these athletes when they read them.
Not everyone can stomach it.
MTN didn’t have the courtesy to give customers an explanation of what the hell happened yesterday.
Customer feedback is dead here. Almost like people in this country are animals not worthy of some explanation or respect.
So here what happened before Lucy Nwankwo’s false started.
Just before the race, an issue was discovered with her spikes — the same issue that led to Perfect Faye’s disqualification in the Mixed 4×100m.
It took considerable time to resolve, and Lucy eventually got a new pair of spikes just minutes before the race.
After spending so much time in the technical area trying to get clearance, she had no time to properly warm up. She went straight onto the track as soon as she got the new spikes.
A false start in that situation is heartbreaking, but before blaming her, understand what happened behind the scenes. People should cut Lucy Nwankwo some slack. You don’t know half of what she went through before that race.
'I Never Said Military Should Reject Salary Increase'.
I wish to address a recent
report that falsely attributes a statement to me, suggesting that Nigerian soldiers should refuse any salary increments until after the elections. This assertion is entirely untrue.
My profound respect for our security forces, particularly the Nigerian Army personnel who diligently serve and protect our nation under challenging conditions, is unwavering. I have consistently advocated for the adequate provision of equipment, motivation, and protection for our security personnel.
My concern was palpable when soldiers were lost to insurgents due to a delayed rescue effort, prompting me to question how those defending us could be left vulnerable in their time of need.
Should I be elected President, the well-being, resources, safety, and honour of our soldiers will be a paramount priority. Those who ensure Nigeria's security must never be relegated to a secondary concern. Our soldiers are deserving of our utmost respect, unwavering support, and a government that will unequivocally stand by them. Under my leadership, scenarios where our servicemen and women are left unprotected in the face of peril will be eradicated.
I implore the Nigerian populace to dismiss this misleading report. I remain committed to articulating a clear and consistent vision for a secure and prosperous Nigeria. The realisation of a new and secure Nigeria is indeed POssible. -PO
