💯 Ive been saying this for months

@empireofthekop For me, he is the only choice

If FSG were to make a change in the dugout in the foresseable future, would you take him over Xabi Alonso, Reds? 🤔 #LFC

TINUBU HAS NOW OPENLY ENFORCED THE DEPUTY GOVERNOR. If you don't like the Lagos politics, you're just envious. I want you to notice and let's learn something here. Did you notice the levels of consultations? This deputy Governor of course is Tinubu's choice. Did you see him wake up and make an announcement without making the moves? See what we learnt. 1. We saw Dr Hamzat with the president and Vice president Kashim Shettima together in one office two months ago And I told you, this looks like an introduction. And it was . Now ask yourself, did Tinubu need to introduce his choice for Lagos Governor to his Vice? No But he did. Learn that one . Tinubu never disrespects his men. That's why they follow him. 2. Next we saw the Deputy Governor moving from the house of one member of GAC to the other. Plus the houses of other top Lagos politicians. 3. Next we saw Lagos speaker going to Abuja to see the president. Then he came back, visited by the deputy Governor. Then he endorsed the Governor and the next day he picks up ticket for House of Representatives. 4. Next we saw him being endorsed by the Governor. 5. Next we saw him being endorsed by the GAC. 6. We are seeing all members of the GAC bringing him before the president in agreement 🤝. (I don't include other pictures here) Did you see the levels of consultation? The reason is to carry everyone along. When you respect everyone they won't have reasons to work against you even though they may not support you. This is a lesson we are learning from Tinubu. Let's keep learning. Ugoji Maximillian

🚨 Antonio Conte being asked to rank Liverpool FC’s trio of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, and Sadio Mané among the greatest in football history: 🗣️ “For me, they are not just top three, they are one of the most complete attacking trios football has ever seen. People talk about individuals, but this trio was about chemistry. Perfect chemistry. At Liverpool FC, they didn’t just score goals—they destroyed teams. Salah was ruthless, Mané was explosive, Firmino was the brain. Three different profiles, but one identity. That’s why they were so dangerous. In the Premier League, they dominated against every type of opponent. In the UEFA Champions League, they proved it on the biggest stage. Finals, big nights, pressure moments—they delivered. And the most impressive thing? Sacrifice. Firmino sacrificing goals, Mané tracking back, Salah carrying responsibility—everyone working for the team. That’s what made them elite. Not just talent… mentality, understanding, and consistency. For me, if you build a modern attacking trio, this is the reference. This is the standard.”

@CalvinEmeka Yup. I dont know what people were expecting of Atleti

What exactly were those Atleti players arguing about? That was as clear a penalty as you are to concede in a football match. The visitors have had nothing to worry about, apart from them giving the ball away in their own area. Tie is effectively over, Arsenal in the final.

Today, I received the endorsement of our leader and the President of Nigeria, H.E. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, as the official APC candidate for the 2027 Lagos Governorship election. I am indeed very grateful for the vote of confidence and endorsement. I am fully aware of the responsibility it carries. I am enthusiastic and looking forward to continuing on the good work and the foundation the President has laid in Lagos State. Lagos state is an ongoing project because we are the yardstick for development and progress. There is still a lot of work ahead, we have an election to win and a legacy to protect. I therefore remain focused on the journey ahead.

@LydiaTeeanaJaja Not Alausa. This was in UNILAG

Babajide Sanwo-Olu has gone through a lot, just.like K1, he is surviving all by the Grace of God. Please don't remove him Oooo. He is a good man. He has tried in infrastructure. See Odo Iyaalaro Bridge. See Tolu's School. Just look at a school compound in your area and see his new school buildings. By the way, it was Dr Obafemi Hamzat the Computer Wizard that eliminated ghost workers in Lagos State using Oracle. FGN and many States came to copy him. Yes we missed Oju Yobo, we missed BRF, we missed MO BEE LORUN, but it was Sanwoolu that gave us Blue and Red Metro lines. Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu (L) 👇 the sitting Governor of Lagos State, alongside an unidentified man attending seminars at Alausa Secretariat Ikeja in those days. Many people believe that the man by the right is Musiliu Obanikoro or is he Tokunbo Wahabi???

The woman who saved me in London was called Maureen and she had no business being kind. I was standing outside a flat in Barking with 2 suitcases and a dying phone. The Airbnb I booked had vanished from the app. The listing was gone. The host number was disconnected. I had paid 6 nights in advance and arrived to nothing. Barking in the drizzle. Nigerian. Alone. Maureen walked past me with her shopping trolley and a small dog that looked like a mop with eyes. She was maybe 68. She had the posture of someone who had been disappointed by life and refused to take it personally. She stopped. Looked at the suitcases. Looked at my face. Then she looked at the door I was standing beside. That one's empty, she said. Been empty since February. If someone rented it to you, they rented you a ghost. I told her the situation. My phone was at 4%. My bank account had already been debited. I was in London for a cousin's wedding and my backup plan was a distant relative in Luton who hadn't answered his messages in 3 days. She listened while the dog sniffed my left suitcase with suspicion. When I finished, she clicked her tongue and said what I needed was not a police report but a meal and a working phone. Her flat was 3 doors down. She made me beans on toast without asking if I liked beans on toast. She said beans on toast was not about liking. It was about warmth and speed and 57 pence per tin. The economics of kindness. Her flat was small and crowded with porcelain cats. Dozens of them. On the mantel. On the windowsill. On shelves she had put up herself. Different sizes. Different colours. All staring. Maureen said her late husband had given her the 1st one in 1974 and after he died she just kept buying them because they reminded her of the 1st one and the 1st one reminded her of him. So the flat wasn't full of cats. It was full of reminders. Some people keep photos. Maureen kept porcelain. I asked her why she let a stranger into her home. A man. A foreigner. Someone from the internet essentially. She said fear takes too much energy. She said she had survived cancer and a terrible marriage and 42 years of factory work and she was not about to start being afraid of a boy with wet shoes and a dead phone. Then she called a number. Her nephew. He worked in property. By 7pm I had an actual flat with an actual key in an actual building near Canning Town. 60 pounds a night. Real. Legal. The nephew even dropped by to check the locks. I tried to pay Maureen for the food and the phone and the errand. She refused everything. So I bought her a porcelain cat from a charity shop on the high street. The ugliest one I could find. A ginger thing with 1 ear missing. She named it Lagos. Put it right next to the 1st one her husband gave her. She sent me a photo later that year. Lagos was still there, one-eared and ridiculous, surrounded by British porcelain. I visited her again before I left London. She took me to her local and introduced me to her friends. All women in their 60s and 70s. All with opinions about Nigerian men now. Maureen had told them I was polite and carried my own suitcases and didn't complain about beans. That was her measure of a person. Carry your own weight. Eat what you're given. Don't complain. I still send her a porcelain cat every Christmas. She sends back a card with a photo of her dog, the mop, who has now accepted me as a non threatening entity. 5 years of porcelain cats. 5 years of cards. When my cousin asked me what London was like, I said London was drizzle and scams and bad Airbnb hosts. Then I said London was also Maureen. And Maureen outweighed everything. 1 stranger with a shopping trolley and a philosophy of beans. She didn't change my life with money or influence. She just refused to walk past. And that refusal made me somebody who refuses to walk past too. Open your door. The stranger might be you later.

What a glorious night of attacking football in the @ChampionsLeague but it's Bayern or PSG defence that will win the tie next week.

@Slotoholic SIGH ...

It's mad how far away we're from this PSG and Bayern sides. Great football, modern wingers, full backs etc. Everything we once had under Klopp.

Healing lives. Winning titles. Inspiring millions. 💚 Have a blast، Alozie. 🎂

🤣🤣🤣🤣Touché!

You see, football can still be exciting in 2026. Cut out the fancying about at the back (trying to ‘beat the press’), forget all the WWE grappling at set pieces, play with intent and purpose. It can still be a beautiful game.

I tweeted i read Banking and Finance, everywhere first scatter 😭 Dem go don go verify tire. 🤣 To add to the above, I have been a fellow of Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR) for over 10 years. I didn't gatecrash any opportunities, I worked & read well. 🔥🔥🇳🇬🇳🇬

Today, I joined the meeting of the Governance Advisory Council, GAC, held at Lagos House, Marina. After exhaustive deliberations, the apex advisory body of our great party, the APC in Lagos State, officially endorsed and adopted Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat as the consensus candidate for the 2027 governorship election. Femi has been a dedicated partner in all we have achieved for Lagos so far. The full support of the GAC gives us confidence that the work we have started will continue without interruption. We remain focused on staying the course and keeping Lagos moving forward.

🚨 Alex Ferguson being asked about the greatest Brazilian in Premier League history: 🗣️ “Everyone will mention flair, goals, skills… but for me, it’s Roberto Firmino. Because he understood football. At Liverpool FC, he wasn’t just playing as a striker—he was the system. He made world-class players around him better. He pressed, he created, he sacrificed… and still delivered in the biggest moments. That’s not easy in the Premier League. People don’t always notice that kind of player because he doesn’t chase headlines. But managers… we see it. He’s one of those rare players you build a team around without people even realising it. For me, that’s greatness. Not just talent… influence.”

FLASH: The Governance Advisory Council (GAC) today unanimously endorsed and adopted the Deputy Governor of Lagos State, @drobafemihamzat to be Consencus candidate for the 2027 elections in Lagos State. Alhaji Prince Tajudeen Oluyole Olusi spoke on behalf of the GAC, today at the Lagos House Marina. The GAC members also announced that they paid for his nomination form. #KOHLagos2027 #GreaterLagosRising @jidesanwoolu

Today, I was honoured to receive the unanimous endorsement of the Governance Advisory Council (GAC) as the official APC Governorship candidate for Lagos in the 2027 elections. Receiving this endorsement from the apex leaders of our dear party is indeed humbling and historic. One I do not take for granted. I am grateful to the Chairman, Alhaji Prince Tajudeen Olusi, and to the members of the Council for their trust and confidence in me. It is a responsibility I accept with all sense of humility, and I will continue to stay focused on what truly matters to our people, which is good and accountable governance. Thank you once again to our leaders and God bless.
