I just came out of Kuje Prison where I visited my colleague @Mazi_OJD, who is currently remanded in the prison over @fijnigeria’s reports.
Daniel was his usual ebullient self, full of smiles, unruffled and even cracking jokes. I do worry for him, though, knowing his long-running battle with asthma.
I understand that the Inspector General of Police deemed me “at large” and asked for a bench warrant to arrest me and bring me to court. That won’t be necessary; I’m coming to court.
As of this moment, I have not yet been served any criminal charge or proof of evidence, either personally or by other substituted means. However, after being briefed by @fijnigeria’s lawyers on Tuesday’s court proceedings, I have decided to appear before the Federal High Court, Abuja, on December 1, 2026 for my arraignment as the second defendant in the case.
The law requires the IGP to ensure personal service of the Criminal Charge and Proof of Evidence on me; this has not been done but I will appear in court as a show of respect for the court. A truthteller has nothing to fear or any reason to run.
With me on the visit to Daniel were @thefunkeadeoye, founder of Hope Behind Bars Africa, and @busola_ajibola, deputy director, journalism, at CJID.
We thank everyone who has lent their voice to #FreeDanielOjukwu. The quest to protect the freedom of the press requires relentless courage in the face of fire; none of us must give up!

Late arrival of election materials at polling units in 2027 is rigging.
BVAS malfunction is rigging.
IREV having network issue is rigging.
Over voting and cancellation on result sheets is rigging.
Missing collation sheet is rigging.
Attempting to snatch ballot box is rigging
Vote buying is rigging.
Parents warn your children, children warn your parents.
If you rig, your life is at risk. Election rigging is a treasonable offense.

This was taken at my brother's wedding, one of my mother's happiest days. She told me so herself the night before, as we took a gentle walk together. Olumuyiwa, the beautiful woman who gave birth to me on this date in 1968.
On the anniversary of your birth, it is your mother (and those involved in the process of your birth) you should celebrate. I have always said that. The song "Olumuyiwa" was written in her honour, and the album of the same title is dedicated to her.
Mother, I greet you.
Mothers, I greet you.

A Government that can casually give N10m to councilors does not have a revenue problem. They just don't want to spend money on you
I have said this over and over: education at all levels should be free in a nation that has been blessed with crude oil, gas, gold, and arable land; many have argued that there is no money, but there are funds for random counselors?
You are enabling corruption, pure and simple.

By finding common purpose. The road to Biafra runs through a unification of the Nigerian PEOPLES, and Oodua Republic can only be gained when the victims of Nigeria have been freed from Nigeria. We are bound together by force, and our peaceful separation is found only in our unity

In 2010, NYSC paid corps members ₦9,775 monthly. Today, they receive ₦77,000.
But look at what has happened to purchasing power.
In 2010, ₦9,775 could buy about 150 litres of petrol at ₦65/litre.
In November 2026, ₦77,000 buys only about 57 litres at ₦1,355/litre.
Yet that ₦9,775 had more purchasing power than today’s ₦77,000.
Economic progress is not how much money you earn. It is how much your money can buy.
The allowance has increased almost 8 times, but Nigerians have become poorer in real terms.

In 2019, a crate of eggs cost ₦600.
Today, it costs ₦6,500. Yet someone is still trying to impress you with GDP figures.
Nigerians have not fully grasped the magnitude of what this country is turning into.

Never own a disease.
Reduce the amount of time that you talk about being ill.
Refuse to allow illness a place in your consciousness.

Do not Undermine Democracy
I have received with shock the news of an order by the Federal High Court in Abuja nullifying the emergence of the Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and all the actions he has taken. This is unsettling and surprising.
I do not challenge the ruling of the court. The court of law is constituted to determine disputes according to the law. My concern is that three months before a general election, it is in the public interest to have certainty. It is not good to have too many uncertainties about candidates and parties a few weeks before a presidential election. This instability is obviously engineered by the ruling party, just as they have done against me in the Labour Party and continue to do so to close down civic space for a robust campaign. It is also from the same rulebook that manufactures violence against us in our campaigns.
One mark of democracy is that at all times, it is voters and not courts that choose leaders. I trust in the judiciary. As a public officer, I have shown deep respect for the judiciary. I appeal that we protect the integrity of democracy by not undermining the free and fair choice of candidates.
The sustenance of democracy in Nigeria, in the midst of encroaching military rule in West Africa, should strengthen our resolve to protect opposition politics and not stamp out opposition parties. It is because of the importance of opposition to the sustenance of democracy that I have always promised that, as President, I will take a special interest in ensuring opposition parties are stable and thriving, and that opposition candidates are not persecuted out of electoral contests.
This is a time to strengthen our democracy by allowing the opposition to thrive.
A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO
