I’ve been following President @BarackObama since I was a 17 years old kid in Nigeria. I was inspired by his story and he has been a role model. I’ve watched over 200 of his speeches; I recently gave this address at a @PwCUS event. Meeting you is a lifelong dream and I can’t wait.

I had a rare opportunity to connect with Chief Adewale Tinubu of Oando Plc, Chief Wale Edun, Nigeria's finance minister, and President @akin_adesina of @AfDB_Group in New York on Wednesday after President Tinubu @officialABAT town hall meeting with Nigerian diaspora in New York.
@asemota What would it cost both of them to travel to Nigeria every quarter to inspect the site when they are investing such significant amount in a project/property? I don’t mind flying in on Saturday and flying back on Sunday for unannounced occasional visits to the site for assessment.

@Morris_Monye Inciting violence isn’t the way forward. A post election violence will lead to death of innocent people. America and the world power won’t support any agitation that will sabotage democracy in Nigeria. I thought we learned from #Endsars that violence is never the right course.
The whole of South voted along ethnic lines and the North is deciding the winner like they usually do. When we are ready to have the real conversation, we will tell ourselves the truth that we can't unseat this evil political system from the top. It has to be from the bottom.
@DavidHundeyin@DavidHundeyin please be responsible and let INEC do its work. Don’t be in abroad and be inciting violence in Nigeria. We know how many innocent people died in 2011 due to irresponsibility of people like you. The peace of Nigeria is as important as the outcome of this election.
Nigerians don’t deserve the pains and suffering they are going through right now. This policy is a senseless policy introduced at a wrong time. It’s quite unfortunate that this suffering will continue for some months after the election regardless of who emerges on Saturday.
The middle class need to consolidate on this third force movement and decentralize it. What we saw in Lagos today might not give us the president we want in two weeks time but it can give us new state legislators, senators, house of rep members in 2027 if it's sustained.
Change!
