Today, I celebrate the strength, resilience, and invaluable contributions of women in our homes, communities, and leadership spaces.
Happy International Women’s Day.
Opeyemi Adigun (Mr. Walter)
Reno Omokri is the poster child for double standards.
Once called Tinubu a drug lord - now praises him.
Claimed Buhari was cloned - then defended him.
Preaches civility - spreads hate.
Says he’s a pastor - spews division.
Reno flips faster than PHCN light. Nigeria deserves better.

@renoomokri , your obsession with Peter Obi is now borderline clinical.
A Nobel Laureate turns 91, and rather than lead with grace or tribute, you used it as another chance to drag Peter Obi into your daily smear crusade. Why is Peter Obi always living rent-free in your head?
This isn’t about Wole Soyinka. It’s about your exhausting, relentless attempts to twist every occasion, birthdays, train rides, fuel prices, into another anti-Obi rant. It reeks of desperation, not patriotism.
Let Nigerians focus on real issues. Not your personal vendetta.

Abuse ( Which shows your level of reasoning )and name-calling won’t change the facts, Baálẹ̀.
IMF Loan? Not cleared. As of Q1 2025, Nigeria still owes $3.27 billion under the RFI facility.
$5B airline debt? No record exists. The trapped funds owed to foreign airlines were around $800m–$1.5B, not debt Nigeria borrowed, and repayment is still ongoing.
External debt “reduced”? Only in dollars. In naira terms, total public debt rose from ₦87.3T to ₦149.4T,that’s a 71% increase.
Net FX reserves? The claim of $19B growth is misleading. The actual liquid reserves available are far less due to liabilities like currency swaps and forwards.
Floating the naira didn’t generate money,it devalued the currency, spiked inflation, and made debt more expensive in naira.
If that’s what you’re praising, then you’re clapping for pain.
Let’s stick to the facts. Nigeria deserves accountability, not blind cheerleading.
#NigeriaDeservesBetter
#DataOverDrama
#PublicDebtReality
Ọ̀gbẹ́ni Baálẹ̀, let’s deal in facts, not folklore or propaganda:
1. No, Nigeria Has NOT Cleared Its IMF Loan
As of Q1 2025, Nigeria still owes the IMF $3.27 billion under the Rapid Financing Instrument (RFI) issued during COVID-19 (IMF Debt Sustainability Report).
So please, let’s stop recycling this myth of full IMF repayment. It's not true.
2. No Proof Nigeria Repaid $5B in Airline Debt
If you mean foreign airlines trapped funds, that was money owed to airlines, not debt Nigeria borrowed.
And only ~$1.5B has been gradually repaid, not $5B (IATA & CBN confirmations).
3. Did Tinubu Reduce Debt by $14B? Technically, Yes. But…
External debt dropped from $113B to $97B mainly due to:
Currency valuation recalibration
Partial repayments and maturity restructuring
Delayed or denied loan disbursements (e.g., World Bank stalled some new funding)
But in Naira terms, debt skyrocketed from ₦87T to ₦149T, that’s a 71% rise!
So yes, debt fell on paper in USD, but rose sharply in impact for Nigerians earning and spending in Naira.
4. Floating the Naira Didn’t “Earn” Revenue, It Crushed Households
Floating the Naira made government FX revenue rise only nominally.
But inflation soared past 33%, food inflation hit 40%+, and minimum wage still hasn’t caught up until recently.
Subsidy removal + float = most painful squeeze on the masses in 30 years.
Truth Slinger, here’s the truth:
A floating Naira helped balance books, but broke backs.
It reduced dollar debt only in appearance, but deepened suffering in real life.
So rather than clap for reduced imaginary debt, let’s ask:
“Has the suffering reduced?”
We’re not here to cheer for PR optics. We’re here to defend Nigerians' reality.

I wish you know better, But let me help your ignorance
You’re right that Nigeria earns foreign exchange (FX) primarily through oil exports, NPA, NIMASA, and other revenue-generating agencies. And yes, external debt is repaid in dollars, often from foreign reserves.
However, the full picture is more complex—and here's where nuance matters:
1. Nigeria’s Revenue Is Still Largely in Naira
Over 70% of government revenue is collected in Naira—through taxes, VAT, customs duties, etc.
Only a portion of foreign currency earnings is available for external debt servicing, and that’s subject to volatility (oil prices, output cuts, pipeline theft, etc.)
2. CBN Converts Naira to USD for Debt Repayment
Even when we repay external debts in dollars, the Federal Government must often buy dollars from the CBN using Naira—especially when FX reserves are under pressure.
This depletes reserves and/or drives up exchange rates, putting further strain on local inflation and imports.
3. External Debt Has Naira Implications
External debt obligations may be in USD, but servicing them diverts public funds (originating in Naira) to buy FX.
This explains why a falling Naira increases the burden: more Naira is needed per dollar to service the same debt.
For example:
In 2021: $1 = ₦460 → $1B debt = ₦460B
In 2025: $1 = ₦1,540 → $1B debt = ₦1.54T
That’s 233% more Naira for the same dollar debt—money that could’ve gone to salaries, education, or healthcare.
4. Forex Reserves Are Not Unlimited
Nigeria’s reserves were around $40.8B in 2024, but over $8B was committed to swap arrangements, leaving far less liquid cash.
When reserves fall, CBN often falls back on local borrowing or printing money, worsening inflation and deficits.
✅ Conclusion:
Yes, we pay in USD.
But those dollars don’t magically appear—they're tied to how many Naira we can squeeze out of local productivity and FX markets.
This is why a devalued Naira magnifies the pain of dollar debt—even if technically, the repayment is not in Naira.

BREAKING: 7 Police Officers Now Facing Mutiny Charges for Demanding Pension and Welfare Reforms
The Deputy Inspector General of Police in charge of the Force Intelligence Department (FID), Abuja — DIG Benjamin Nebolisa Okolo has confirmed to me that seven police officers detained for speaking out on poor police pensions and welfare are now being tried for “mutiny.”
This disturbing revelation followed a phone conversation I had with the DIG while pressing for access by human rights lawyers and family members to the detained officers — a process we initiated two nights ago at the FID detention facility in Abuja.
I strongly condemn the current police leadership, especially the illegally appointed Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, for criminalizing these officers' advocacy for basic rights that every police officer deserves.
I call on serving and retired officers across Nigeria to reject these bogus and draconian charges. The Nigeria Police Force must immediately release the seven officers, led by Inspector Bode Emoruwa.
We are gravely concerned for their safety. History reminds us: in 2003, police officers who dared to organize for better welfare were reportedly exterminated under the Olusegun Obasanjo regime. We will not allow history to repeat itself.

Let address the lie's @renoomokri claims were made by @PeterObi one by one :
1. “No students died at Auchi Polytechnic”
Fact: The school denied any deaths occurred during the SUG election violence; claims by Peter Obi referenced distressing video footage showing gunfire and chaos—not an official death toll. Obi later expressed concern over lawlessness, calling for civility, not deceit
You can check the dailies report on this.
2. “He lied about Nigeria’s indebtedness”
Fact: Obi pointed out how the drastic naira devaluation ballooned Nigeria’s debt burden when repaid,debt may fall in USD but rise catastrophically in naira value, squeezing everyday Nigerians. This is standard economics, and his claim aligns with DMO data .
3. “He lied about the President’s convoy” & “not spending a night in any state other than Lagos”
Counterpoint: Conflicting statements about Tinubu’s itinerary and convoy size have sparked controversy. Official sources have yet to transparently confirm or deny these claims. Transparency is overdue, not absurd to question a public figure’s punctuality or PR spin.
4. “Lied that 20 million out-of-school children in Northern Nigeria”
Fact: UNESCO and NBS reports estimate between 10–20 million children out-of-school nationwide, with the North disproportionately affected. While exact figures vary, Obi’s broader point about chronic educational neglect stands credible.
5. “Lied about how much he left behind in Anambra”
Fact: Obi left Anambra with a reported ₦75 billion surplus, 250% debt reduction, consistent salary payments, and no public-sector wage arrears, widely documented and acknowledged .
6. “Lied about power situation, dams, state-owned brewery, OPEC quotas, unemployment, US president paying for food, luxury watch count…”
These are distractions.
None of these claims are core to Obi’s policy messaging, which focuses on governance, accountability, and data-driven reform.
Bottom Line
Reno’s tactic, dumping wild, sweeping “lie” lists, is a classic deflection: shout louder, hope nobody checks the facts.
Meanwhile, Obi’s interventions:
Were grounded in NBS/UNESCO data, official DMO figures, and government performance metrics.
Called out real public distress: skyrocketing inflation, youth unemployment, debt servicing an entire economy, fuel prices over ₦900/L, and persistent insecurity.
Those are not lies, they’re everyday realities felt by everyday Nigerians.
Reno Omokri is not policing truth, he’s panicking about exposure.
Peter Obi asked the right questions.
And while politicians spin, ordinary Nigerians keep paying the price.
#TruthOverNoise
#FactCheckObiOrTinubu
#NigeriaDeservesBetter
#DataNotDrama
@renoomokri just published a long list of "Peter Obi lies", but forgot the most important one:
The lie that this current government is working.
Let’s address this calmly, factually.
Auchi Incident:
@PeterObi referenced unverified reports about a student death. He later clarified, and even sympathized with the institution. Meanwhile, Reno jumped at the chance to weaponize grief for clout.
So who’s being divisive?
You scream “liar!” yet:
– Tinubu claimed to attend Chicago State University without providing transcripts until a court forced it.
– Claimed to attend Government College Ibadan (he didn’t).
– Claimed he’s not part of fuel subsidy regime, yet continues to pay it secretly.
Where’s your moral outrage on that?
Let’s talk performance:
– Naira = ₦1,500/$
– Fuel = ₦900/litre
– Food inflation = 40.66%
– Youth unemployment = 53% (NBS, 2024)
– Nigeria now owes ₦144.67 trillion
But Reno thinks a man who left ₦75bn in Anambra, paid salaries, and invested in education is the one to attack?
Reno Omokri’s obsession with Obi isn’t political, it’s personal, emotional, and unhinged.
He calls himself a “#TableShaker” but never shakes the table at Tinubu, who runs the current mess.
That’s not integrity.
That’s auditioning for a role in propaganda.
Peter Obi is far from perfect, but if he’s the liar, then why is the government you defend with your whole chest terrified to face him in a data-backed debate?
Because truth needs no volume. Just presence.

@renoomokri
is not a public intellectual. He’s a walking contradiction, wrapped in ego, drenched in delusion, and fuelled by bitterness.
This is a man who:
– Claims to love Nigeria, but fans the flames of tribalism at every turn.
– Preaches morality, yet hurls Hitler comparisons like confetti.
– Says he fears God, but lies without blinking.
– Says he’s fighting for unity, while constantly dividing Nigerians along North/South, Christian/Muslim, Obidient/APC lines.
Reno’s politics isn’t about truth or patriotism. It’s about relevance, clinging to the spotlight by throwing dirt at whoever threatens the system he benefits from.
He calls himself a “#TableShaker,” but all he’s ever shaken is public trust and national unity.
He doesn’t debate-he defames.
He doesn’t enlighten-he inflames.
And worst of all, he does it with a smirk and scripture in hand, weaponizing both God and Google for clout.
But here’s the truth:
Reno Omokri is not Nigeria’s conscience.
He’s not a truth teller.
He’s a mirror of everything wrong with our political discourse, obsessed with self, incapable of reflection, and terrified of change.
He isn’t fighting for Nigerians.
He’s fighting for attention.
And history will remember that.

@renoomokri has officially gone off the rails.
This isn’t critique. It’s desperation soaked in delusion.
Let’s break down this latest paranoid rant where he calls Peter Obi Hitler, Obidients Nazis, and IPOB puppet masters. #RenoTheUnhinged
Peter Obi is not IPOB.
He has condemned violence. He doesn’t support secession. He’s a Nigerian nationalist who campaigned across ALL zones and got 6.1M votes nationwide—more than your hero ever could. #ObiIsNational
Calling the Obidient movement “a terror group” because they dragged you online for lying isn't security analysis, it’s cowardice masked as courage.
You dish daily insults but cry “bully!” when you get ratio’d.
Reno says “Obidients threaten his child.”
That’s horrible and wrong,but you don’t label millions of Nigerians terrorists because of a few trolls.
Should we call all PDP or APC supporters cultists because of thugs at rallies? Be serious.
If anyone is a danger to national security, it's YOU, Reno
Stoking ethnic hatred
Spreading conspiracy theories
Comparing political opponents to Hitler
Gaslighting citizens already facing suffering
This is how genocides start ,with reckless, weaponized language.
Obidients are not afraid. We are tired, of poverty, corruption, propaganda, and gatekeepers like you who think they own the truth.
You don’t ruffle feathers. You sell fiction.
You can’t debate Peter Obi, so you demonize him.
You can’t disprove the facts, so you shout IPOB.
You can’t face today’s reality, so you rewrite history.
This is not activism. It’s a meltdown.
We don’t need to bully you.
Your words already disqualify you from serious conversation.

@PeterObi
Dear @renoomokri ,
When truth is inconvenient, propaganda becomes your only tool.
Let’s address your recent character assassination of @PeterObi , point by point.
#RenoTheDistractor #PeterObiSpeaksFacts
Poverty in Anambra under Obi?
Your numbers are misleading. The 41.4% poverty rate in 2003 was under Ngige & Mbadinuju.
By 2010, Anambra ranked among the top 10 least poor states in Nigeria (NBS).
Peter Obi left ₦75bn in state reserves, paid salaries, cleared pensions, and ran a surplus-based governance model.
Security under Obi?
Anambra was once home to politically sponsored violence. Under Obi, kidnappings and cult killings were drastically reduced. Even President Jonathan acknowledged him for stabilizing the state.
Awkuzu SARS?
Peter Obi did not control SARS. It was a federal police unit under the command of the IG of Police, not the Governor. Reno, you know this, but you lie because truth won’t trend.
Meeting with IPOB?
Obi said: "I engage them to preach peace." That’s what leaders do. Dialogue is not endorsement.
Is Tinubu not meeting with Niger Delta agitators? Was Yar’Adua not praised for dialoguing with MEND?
Abacha Connection?
Peter Obi’s business with Tin Can Ports under Abacha was import and export, legal business, like many in the 90s. If that makes him guilty, then 80% of Nigerian billionaires are also guilty by Reno’s logic.
Harira Jubril’s death is tragic, but to weaponize her pain for propaganda is morally wrong. Obi condemned it. And he’s consistently called for an end to all violence, North or South. Where was your outrage when her killers were not found?
Reno says Obi is lying.
But all Obi did was use DMO, NBS, and official data to expose hardship under Tinubu.
The real lie is calling this current mess “progress.”
Naira at ₦1,500/$
Food inflation 40.66%
Fuel ₦900/litre
133 million Nigerians in poverty
If you think Peter Obi is the threat, then maybe the truth is what truly scares you.
