Actor Zubby Michael picked the ADC form, to run for the House of Reps in Ekwusigo, Anambra state. I love this. More Nigerian youths should get involved in the race!✍️

INDEPENDENT NATIONAL ELECTORAL COMMISSION PRESS STATEMENT INEC CHAIRMAN HAS NO ACCOUNT ON X, DISREGARD PARTISAN FABRICATIONS The attention of the Office of the Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), has been drawn to a malicious and coordinated campaign of calumny circulating on social media. The false claim alleges that the INEC Chairman, Prof. Joash Amupitan, SAN, has, in the past, endorsed a partisan post on the platform X (formerly Twitter). The Commission wishes to state categorically that this allegation is entirely baseless, a total fabrication, and a figment of the imagination of its purveyors. For the avoidance of doubt, the INEC Chairman does not own or operate any personal account on X. He has at no time engaged in partisan commentary, nor has he ever associated himself with any political leaning or activity in his private or public capacity. This contrived X post is a desperate attempt to impugn the integrity and neutrality of the Chairman at a critical period when the Commission is focused on significant electoral reforms and preparations for upcoming polls. It is a needless distraction designed to stir public distrust in the electoral umpire. Beyond this partisan mischief, the Commission is aware that cybercriminals have been on the prowl, utilising fake social media accounts in the Chairman’s name to defraud unsuspecting Nigerians. We wish to place it on record that several of such fraudulent accounts had been identified and reported to security agencies in the past. This latest fabrication is merely a continuation of a criminal pattern aimed at exploiting the Commission’s profile for illicit gains. The Commission will not fold its arms while the character of its leadership is being assassinated by digital imposters and mischief-makers. We wish to notify the public that we are working in close collaboration with relevant security agencies and cyber-intelligence units to track and identify the individuals or groups behind this identity theft and misinformation. Let it be clearly understood that the Commission will ensure that these imposters face the full wrath of the law. Identity theft and the dissemination of deepfake or forged social media interactions are criminal offenses under the Cybercrimes Act. Those responsible for this mischief will be tracked and prosecuted to serve as a deterrent to others who believe the digital space is a safe haven for criminality. The general public is hereby urged to disregard this falsehood in its entirety. We will continue to disseminate official information regarding the Commission and the Chairman’s activities only through our verified institutional channels and formal press statements. The Commission remains undeterred and fully committed to its mandate of delivering free, fair, and credible elections for all Nigerians.

Sometimes, the enemy of your enemy is not your friend. Nigeria is currently threatening to be overrun by jihadist extremist. Your new friends are sympathetic to Hezbollah, Hamas, Ansar Allah etc.

At the Iranian Embassy yesterday to pay my condolences to the people of Iran over the assassination of their former Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, I kept thinking about some acquaintances who no longer relate with me because of my strong anti-imperialist stand. Not going to lie, I feel sad whenever I remember ties that have been unnecessarily severed over misjudgments. To be honest, I don't have any ill intentions towards anyone. On the contrary, I actually want the best for everyone. Nothing I do is anchored in self-interest, which is why I did not go the popular route. It's more beneficial (especially, financially) if one decides to invest their online energy in peddling “our leaders are bad” “corruption is killing us” “America come and save” “there is a problem with black people” and everything along those lines. You will get clicks, likes, impressions, and maintain mutuals. Even the western controlled platforms themselves will boost you. There is not a single person on this platform, influencer or decision maker, I have ever DM'd for personal reasons, or in the hope that they plug me in. It has always been professional, unless I’m contacted first. And I'm probably the only person on this platform that can say this. I could have pursued relationships with everyone that matters, because I have the connections. I’m literally a product of the Nigerian broadcast media industry. I know everyone I need to know. I could be arranging podcast slots, TV, blogs and everything. But I didn't. For not pursuing these familiarities, I actually ended up attracting blackballing by many blogs and influencers. I have evidence of blogs rejecting paid ads from third party because of my imprint. There is no way I can examine this to conclude that I chose my path for selfish reasos. It is purely ideological. And I'm not even a slave to my ideology. If you can convince me that Western intervention, Western-approved democracy or imported religion is not hindering Africa’s progress, or how the opposite can practically bring about true freedom and economic progress for Africa, I will abandon my path and follow you. If the Kissinger Report of 1974 wasn't real and playing out exactly how America planned for Nigeria to be a failed state, I will follow. If America did not facilitate the regime change of 2015 that ushered in Buhari, and ultimately, Tinubu, to destroy Nigeria’s economy, I would dust my pouch and follow you. If America had not destroyed Libya and worsened the living conditions of its people for no reason other than cheap oil and preventing Africa’s unity, I would not have been on this path. I can give a million and one examples, if intended to turn this into a textbook, but you can explore many more of them yourself. They are real, available and verifiable. For the sake of this continent, time’s running out, you really need to familiarise yourself with the evil that is the West, and why continued alliance will continue to hinder our progress as a people. As I mentioned earlier, I could have been bigger than I am, because I have the capacity. I am one of the fastest-growing (organic) accounts out here, despite not aggressively soliciting for the growth. Which brings me to this conclusion: the real MVPs are those who support me, because they literally have no reason to. I haven't made it easy to be loved, but they do anyway. I appreciate and do not take it for granted. I want everywhere to be good. I want everyone to be good. That's why I'm in this. Thank you.

The kids were the only men.
