The government of the #AAC would on day one, end thuggery in Lagos. That brings in peace. Stop omo oni ile, construction workers can work in peace. Stops transportation hikes. Get accountable taxes from real transport workers. End decades of multiple and illegal taxations. #APCMustGo #HamzatisANoNo #WorstThanSanwolu

“The world ignores it” is such a reactionary thing to say. Why must the world pay attention when you can organize domestically to solve the problem?
Killing of Christians by Fulani Muslim terrorists has become a daily occurrence in Nigeria. The world ignores while govt of Nigeria is constantly lying about it.

Americans are unhappy in the comments. They don’t know about Nigeria, where we build the business, sell it to “business men” at a discount then help them finance their operations without taking any equity. They sure don’t know that is how it “works”?
🇺🇸 Tucker Carlson CONFRONTS Kevin O’Leary Over Taxpayer Subsidies for Billion-Dollar Data Centers: “Why Am I, as a Taxpayer, Forced to Pay for Your Business?” Tucker Carlson: “Your tenants are some of the richest companies in the world. Why should taxpayers be required to subsidize this? If it’s such a good business, why are you asking taxpayers to help pay for it without giving them equity in the company?” Kevin O’Leary: “I have to go raise $15 billion. That’s what it takes to build the first 1.5 gigawatts. Every state is competing for that investment. You’re going to create jobs, pay taxes, and build communities. What can you give me to incentivize me versus the state right beside you?” Tucker: “I run a couple of businesses, and we’re not getting any tax breaks. I think they’re every bit as virtuous as data centers. I’m not availing myself of that, and I wouldn’t take it anyway. It’s not the job of taxpayers to subsidize a private business.” O’Leary: “Welcome to America, buddy. This is how it’s gone on for 200 years.”

Maybe because he has more options than most other prospective footballers. He could easily end up in estate management practice in Nigeria or abroad.

Most of the folks who designs these models leverage the big data: how then are they so comfortable accusing contributors to that big data of stealing from their own proprietary work? This is the evil of capitalism. I am certain some will argue.
Mi hija entregó un trabajo de historia que escribió en tres tardes en la mesa de la cocina, delante de mí. Le pusieron un cero. El motivo: “97 % de probabilidad de haber sido generado con inteligencia artificial”. Pedí una reunión y llevé una cosa en el portátil...

The problem with most of you was not the energy shown in the last election. It is the inadequacy shown in understanding the direction that energy should have been aimed. Now, saying you are an ex-Obidient isn’t enough. I would rather you be an ex-reactionary. I hope this helps.
ex-Obidient here. What changed me? 1. Tinubu's Policies. 2. I sat and watched over 10 hours of Peter Obi's interview and 5 hours of Tinubu's own. In short, I wasted 10 hours. 3. I became Tribalistic. In that order.

That’s why you will rarely see any of @officialABAT, @PeterObi and @atiku prosecuted in Nigeria. As it is in the jungle, so it is the “jungle”.

No be you Dey insult everyone that year because of Doyin Okupe matter? @idiakosa, no be your violence space host be this ?
The obsession with Lagos was another turning point. Suddenly, Lagos became “No man’s land”. That one still does my head in till today. Like how? 🤷🏾‍♂️ Lagos that is in South Western part of Nigeria: The region of the Yorubas. You lot have actually lost it completely.

Hi @NGRPresident, how about you try your shot at ensuring that referendum is conducted across Nigeria today to determine if the people are opened to staying together any longer?

I want to state that anyone who is looking for entertaining football should go on YouTube and watch any Arsenal EPL fixture between 2005 to 2017. Stop disturbing our peace with all this tantrum. If you are an opposition too, and you’ve some to say; get your team to entertain you.

Good boy. These views aligns perfectly with @PeterObi’s world view. That’s why he tries his philanthropy more in other parts of Nigeria.
I notice that a poor Yoruba boy in the slums of Agege can be extra confident and pompous because his uncle or brother is rich. They don't care whether they themselves are in penury. Same with most Hausas. Some even go as far as telling you that their poverty is "the will of God." The average Igbo man that has a rich relative has long accepted that he himself is poor, and works towards self-actualisation. This is the microcosm of Nigeria's bleak political atmosphere. The South West and North perceive Ndigbo support of Peter Obi as support of "my brother." Because that's how they approach "support." This is, in essence, a con of extreme communalism -- the sheep doesn't care for its own destruction as long as it can see other sheep with it at the butcher's.

You kept the truth so an unqualified Man could get into power? Did you know your life would have been made hell if he emerged ?
About my so-called arrest. Sometime last year, in June 2025, I was at a laboratory with my mother to run a series of medical scans that the doctor had requested for her. At about 3pm I received a call from a certain police inspector. He introduced himself and said I had been petitioned and should report to the police station the following day. I was shocked. I asked him, “Are you sure it’s me?” He said yes. I asked again, “Are you sure it’s me?” He confirmed it once more. I then told him I would report at the station with my lawyer the next day. After the call, I realised something was off. He had called on a Thursday, which meant that if I honoured the invitation on Friday, there was a possibility I could be detained until Monday. So I called my lawyer. He asked me one or two questions, including who I had issues with or who I suspected. I said no one, but if there was any issue, it might be the APC government trying to silence me because I am a strong critic. He told me to relax and that we would go on Monday. I then messaged some of my mutuals here to inform them, just in case anything happened, so they could help amplify it on social media. To cut a long story short, I got the shock of my life when I discovered that the petition had been filed by an Obidient from Edo State. I was heartbroken. It was unbelievable, and I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me. How was I going to face my friends and family? I had carried the Obidient movement on my head and told them that we stood for good governance and the rule of law, yet the movement had begun using the instrumentality of the state against people even when they were not in power. I had to keep this in my heart and bear the shame because if I had spoken out, the APC would have milked it and used it against the movement. The petition was a false allegation of cyberbullying and threats to life. I was bailed that very day. People like Kris, an Obidient from Edo State, held about the matter and even said, “Osaro, give me your account so I can give Momsy something for all the stress.” God bless you Kris ❤️ I can’t believe that Harry can now come out and call me a criminal in public. Since I was born, nobody has ever bullied me without me matching their energy. We are warriors, and we neither bow nor flinch. If Peter Obi ever gets to power, our case will be like the Ezu River if we dare to speak or criticise him. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

For people like you who still believes in the workability of this evil model; Osun (where the Governor came out to support the oppressive president) is the reference point. The deception of our people by the same political is good enough. Never again!
I knew Osun would be the reference point for 2027. I’m still amazed it was ‘allowed’ to happen.

Prior to the 2015 elections, Sowore warned Nigerians against voting for Buhari and the APC, forget the propaganda of Sowore supporting APC, it's all lie
