To the uninformed haters who think we have not won in Europe. @Arsenal won two European Cups- in 1970, the INTER CITIES FAIR CUP, the predecessor to UEFA Cup, now Europa League AND in 1994, the EUROPEAN CUP WINNERS, defeated Parma 1-0 in Copenhagen. Study the history more
Hello, history rewriter, GET DOWN!
Dangote refinery was majorly built by Nigerians. Why do people like you have such a penchant for lying and downplaying black people’s efforts and achievements?
In this interview, Dangote mentioned “We realized that we had to build our own port, after building the port, we realize that nobody could supply us with cranes 🏗️ ,equipments, we had to do something that people didn’t realize, we now made ourselves as the EPC contractors, which is Engineering, Procurement and Construction”
In another interview, he mentioned that the majority of the Nigerian engineers who built his refinery were later employed abroad (somewhere in the UAE) to build another refinery.
We have to fix our judiciary to ensure that criminals and people who act wrongly, especially knowingly, are properly punished.
Let me share a story.
Sequel to repeated requests by a dealer in Abuja to sell our vehicles, I entrusted about a dozen Nord vehicles to him. This dealer went ahead to sell one of the vehicles without our knowledge and without remitting the proceeds to us. A brand new 55 million NGN bus.
I reported the matter to the Police. I was advised to take it to court and obtain an order for recovery, as they know the dealer well, and he is well known to them for these scams. They expected he would offer to pay in instalments and then habitually default.
As advised, I filed the case in November 2024. Since then, his lawyer has continued to employ different delay tactics, which, sadly, are working.
Last year, another dealer attempted the same thing. This time, I involved the Police directly, and the vehicle was recovered immediately.
We cannot keep watching people steal and defame others, and simply tell those wronged to go to court for only civil recourse when there are clear criminal elements involved.
We have to fix the judiciary. Let’s ensure cases reach judgment faster, and delay tactics are severely punished. We have to encourage good behaviour and discourage bad ones.
People with poor character are exploiting our judiciary.
@PBATWarRoom@HMKemiAdeosun Even PBAT wouldn't dare to remove the fuel subsidy aftermath of the COVID 19 a global economic disaster. It would have been the best under OBJ, & later GEJ but the regime wanted Nigerians to pay for empty vessels of PMS as subsidy. D corruption was taken to unimaginable level
@ebenezerbuki Until this wicked habit is treated as a homicide or murder case or simply a criminal case and the culprit serves a minimum of 7 calendar years. This evil would not abate. This Gender! Fear Women!!!
@peculiarchichii That video of those boys choosing to save their mum in lieu of their dad in a hypothetical fire scenario showed that the woman is a terrible wife. If a child grows up to appreciate their father, their mother should be praised.
While I was still very young, my father was barely home because he travels almost every week.
He would give school fees to my mom, she'd pay and keep the receipts. Immediately dad comes home she'd gather all of us, hand us our school fees receipts and tell us to go and thank him.
Any day dad is arriving from his travels, she'd keep us awake to ensure we all welcome him even if it's midnight.
My mother played a significant role in bridging the gap of my father's absence.
Till I became an adult, he still travels. I and my brothers don't joke with him.
Mothers are gate keepers in household.
They hold the key to every value system that is being discharged.
If she is selfish, her children will get indoctrinated in selfishness too.
Peter did not blame Nnamdi Kanu for sacking his experienced SAN lawyers, such as Kanu Agabi, SAN, a former Attorney General of the Federation, and for surrounding himself with Temu lawyers.
Peter Obi did not blame Nnamdi Kanu's thuggish, 'You don't know the law' conduct in court, where he tried to fight the judge, DSS agents, and even the Temu lawyers he retained and said Black Africans are cursed by God, as if he, Nnamdi Kanu, is a Semitic Hebrew.
Peter Obi did not blame Kanu for refusing to enter his defence, despite multiple opportunities given to him by Justice Omotosho.
But after Nnamdi Kanu was rightly convicted and sentenced to life, Peter Obi now blames Nigeria and accuses our country of injustice. The same injustice that gave you your governorship seat back after your fellow Anambra person stole it from you?
Nigeria does not need a leader, like Peter Obi, who hates all terrorists, except those, like IPOB, who speak the same language and share the same ethnicity as him. We need and should stay with a leader like President Tinubu, who is against all terrorists, period!
Partial tolerance to terrorism will destroy Nigeria. What we need is zero tolerance for that scourge. And a terror enabler, like Peter Obi, who has turned himself into the unofficial mouthpiece of IPOB, doing Emma Powerful's job for him (maybe he is even secretly Emma Powerful), is not the type of person we want sitting at Aso Rock.

IMPORTANT UPDATE🚨: Key takeaways from the security meeting in Ogun State convened by Governor @DapoAbiodunCON today.
1. 70 foreigners, mostly from Niger, Chad and Sudan have been arrested in the last couple of days. Those foreigners have no means of ID, they can’t speak English and they couldn’t provide clear explanations for their presence in Ogun State. They will be processed for deportation through the Nigeria Immigration Service.
2. Ogun State Government will begin the documentation of ALL undocumented foreign nationals working with multinational companies operating in Ogun State.
3. Non-indigenes entering the state for the first time will now undergo proper screening by their community leaders. They will be asked to present their purpose in the state and means of livelihood before they would be accepted to live anywhere in the state. This is to ensure they are not used to orchestrate violence.
4. Law enforcement agencies have been directed to pay special attention to scavengers in the state and immediately arrest any who breaks the law. The meeting deliberated extensively on the activities of scrap dealers and scavengers who may now be aiding criminal networks. It was noted that they now pose a greater security threat than before.
5. Governor Dapo Abiodun directed the Police to immediately move to areas such as “Zanga” in Ijebu Ode and similar enclaves of scavengers across the state and clear them out. He warned that properties used by criminals will henceforth be seized by the state Government.
6. On Ajebo in Obafemi Owode LGA security concerns:
He noted that security agents have visited the area and security operations will continue in the area.
The State Forest reserves have been commissioned to comb the forests across th state and ensure criminals are not using them as hideouts.
7. On Illegal mining:
The Governor noted that the government is aware that some miners operate as miscreants and it’s working with security agencies to flush criminals out of mining sites and forest reserves.
8. The Governor cautioned traditional rulers (Obas and Baales) against allocating government land to strangers, that any traditional ruler found culpable would be held accountable for undermining state interest.
9. Governor Dapo Abiodun said the meeting was convened in response to the country’s current security climate, noting that as Nigeria’s industrial capital, Ogun receives more than 5 million daily commuters, making it crucial for government to heighten vigilance.
10. The Governor appealed to residents to actively support community policing efforts by providing credible information to security agencies.
11. He commended security agencies for their cooperation and synergy, which he said has contributed significantly to the peace Ogun State currently enjoys.
12. The Governor lauded President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for stabilizing the economy and commended him and the security agencies for the prompt rescuing of kidnapped victims in Kwara and Niger states.
Igbega Ipinlẹ Ogun!
When Nigeria sentenced Kabiru Sokoto of Boko Haram to life in prison for terrorism, Peter Obi did not claim that Nigeria was fighting Arewa or being unfair to the North and Islam.
When Nigeria sentenced Charles Okah of Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta, MEND, to life in prison for terrorism, Peter Obi did not allege that Nigeria was fighting the Ijaw or doing injustice to the South-South or Christianity.
So, why does Peter Obi attack Nigeria over the life sentence verdict placed upon Nnamdi Kanu, and link it to his being Igbo?

TRIBUTE TO A PROUD YORUBA GENERAL – ROTIMI AKEREDOLU, SAN
As with all men, mistakes and blunders are our common lot - perfection belongs to the celestial, not to flesh and bone.
Some among us falter in our marital choices;
Others stumble in the paths of profession;
Yet others lose their footing in politics, faith, or personal identity…
To each his own portion of human frailty.
But whatever missteps the late Yoruba leader, Barr. Rotimi Akeredolu, SAN, may have made while he walked this mortal soil, one truth stands immune to contradiction: no soul can deny his bravery, his courage, and his unfeigned love for his people.
It is in troubled times such as these that memories summon men who spoke when silence was convenient; leaders who acted in ways that defied convention; Generals who confronted external threats with the lion’s heart, guarding our identity at dire risk to their very breath. Men who would not bow to popular hypocrisy, nor embrace the enemy to purchase political correctness.
Tribute to you, Ba Mi Rotimi. May the mighty hands of God rest upon all you left behind - especially those who loved you in truth, and who continue even now to guard your legacy as you dwell among the angels. I believe that journey of honour begins with our dear former First Lady, Her Excellency Betty Akeredolu, @DrIgoloAbiam… I trust I am correct. Or am I not?
Ok. Enough said. Let's proceed to the Sentence....
Good Afternoon Severally...
I genuinely don’t know where all of this will eventually lead us as a nation. If the rising tensions and the constant reckless narrative are simply because of the combination of the individuals currently occupying the Presidency, then why can’t we just wait and channel our dissatisfaction through the ballot boxes in 2027?
We all clearly remember the events of the 2023 elections. Neither President Tinubu, his Deputy nor the APC built their campaign around religion. They did not tour mosques preaching religious fear. They did not weaponise faith for political gain. Instead, they focused on experiences and regional balance. But Peter Obi, the very candidate many of propagandists supported, went from church to church framing the election as a religious war and busy calling daddies to help him take the message to their congregations.
I genuinely thought that the Tinubu/Shettima ticket would be seen first and foremost as a Yoruba/Kanuri ticket, two ethnic groups coming together to represent national diversity, as people have been preaching that religion should never come before tribe. But now, because that narrative doesn’t fit the current agenda, suddenly everything is reduced to Muslim/Muslim, as their ethnic identities no longer matter.
If we genuinely care about this country, our politics must be guided by truth, not reckless narratives crafted to inflame sentiment. Nigeria deserves better.
The conversation in America is finally moving pass the reductive 'Christian genocide' narrative.
Listening to Influential conservative figures like Tucker and @robertamsterdam acknowledging Nigeria's intricate realities and root causes is a good development.
@FadaChristmas_@UnkleAyo Oshiomole was not unruly.
Rather the airline staff were, they were not fair in allowing passengers to board, selling tickets to late comers at higher prices and putting them on board ahead of those already at the counter. Adams Oshiomole protested against the malpractice
Obidients: Tinubu rigged the 2023 election.
Grok: Lie. He had nationwide acceptance, whether you like it or not.
Obidients: But INEC shut down IReV.
Grok: And so? IReV isn’t for voting, BVAS is. Stop mixing things up.
Obidients: Obi challenged the result in court.
Grok: Wrong again. Obi never claimed victory, he only tried to smear the winner’s character.
Obidients: You’re biased.
Grok: That’s the trademark excuse of someone who can’t handle facts.
