"Some men change their party for the sake of their principles; others change their principles for the sake of their party." Winston Churchill Today, May 9th, I attended the 1st convention of my latest party, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) in Abuja, Nigeria. The convention was successful and continued to show the resilience of Nigerians to change I express my sincere appreciation and gratitude to the NDC family, led by the distinguished Senator Henry Seriake Dickson, for inviting us and for the generosity of spirit with which they have accommodated us at this critical moment in our national journey. I also wish to express profound gratitude to the African Democratic Congress(ADC), particularly Distinguished Senator David Mark, for providing a democratic platform and showing uncommon understanding when the ongoing litigation forced us out of the Labour Party and the New Nigeria People's Party, NNPP respectively. That spirit of solidarity must remain the foundation upon which a better Nigeria will be built. Today, the most painful aspect of our political existence is that many who once benefited from democratic governance have now become willing accessories to the destruction of democracy itself. Those who once fought for justice now openly celebrate electoral injustice. Those who once spoke against impunity now defend coercion, manipulation, intimidation, and outright political gangsterism, especially against opposition voices. What we are witnessing is not politics; it is a systematic assault on democracy and the will of the people. Nigeria today stands at a dangerous crossroads. Our democracy is under severe threat. Our nation is drifting without direction, and our people are passing through immense suffering. Across the world, Nigeria is increasingly described as a failing and disgraced nation. This is not the destiny God ordained for our great country. It was not always so, and it must never be allowed to remain so. Across virtually every recognised indicator of good governance - accountability, political stability, rule of law, control of corruption, government effectiveness, regulatory quality, and the separation of powers - Nigeria continues to record alarming failures. The institutions that should protect the people are weakening daily, while the burden on ordinary citizens grows heavier with each passing moment. Today, over 140 million Nigerians live in multidimensional poverty. Tens of millions of young people remain unemployed or underemployed. Inflation continues to crush families. Businesses are shutting down. Farmers can no longer safely access their farms. Communities live in fear. In this month alone, hundreds of innocent Nigerians have lost their lives to insecurity, while many others have been kidnapped, displaced, or thrown deeper into poverty. The most heartbreaking question confronting us is this: Who consoles the grieving mother whose child was abducted on the way to school? Who speaks for the father who can no longer feed his family despite working every day? Who defends the young Nigerian whose dreams have been destroyed by a nation that rewards connections over competence and corruption over character? Our present tragedy is not accidental. It is the direct consequence of years of deliberate sabotage by a political class that prospers by dividing the people and weakening the nation. Nigeria is not a poor country; rather, we are being looted into poverty. We have abundant human and natural resources, yet we remain trapped in deprivation because leadership has failed to place the common good above personal interest. Our choice as a people is therefore clear: whether to surrender to despair and national decline, or to summon the courage to rescue our country and rebuild it on the foundations of unity, equity, justice, competence, and productivity.

The biggest shift in my prayer life was moving from desperation to authority. There was a time I thought prayer was about begging God… Crying louder, fasting longer, hoping maybe heaven would notice me. But then light came. God is not asking us to beg… He is asking us to believe. Begging comes from uncertainty. Authority comes from revelation. When you don’t know who you are in Christ, you will pray like a victim. When you know who you are, you will pray like a son. The Bible says: “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace…” (Hebrews 4:16) Not crawling. Not shrinking. Boldly. Why? Because you are not a stranger trying to gain access… You are a child who already belongs. Listen—prayer is not convincing God to do what He is reluctant to do. Prayer is enforcing what He has already made available in Christ. That’s why you will never pray amiss if you pray scriptures. Because when you pray scriptures, you are not speaking your emotions… You are speaking His will. “And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us.” (1 John 5:14) Scriptures reveal His will. So when you pray the Word, heaven has no option but to respond. Instead of saying: “Lord… please help me, I don’t know what to do…” You rise and declare: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” (Psalm 23:1) Instead of saying: “God, I’m afraid…” You stand on His Word: “For God has not given me the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” (2 Timothy 1:7) Instead of begging for victory, you declare: “In all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.” (Romans 8:37) This is the difference. Desperation prays from lack. Authority prays from finished work. Jesus already paid the price. He already secured the victory. You are not trying to win… You are enforcing what has been won. So when you pray, don’t come like someone trying to persuade God. Come as one who knows: “I have access.” “I have backing.” “I have authority in Christ.” Let your prayers be filled with Word. Let your mouth speak what heaven has already said. Because when God hears His Word in your mouth… He confirms it. Stop begging. Start believing. Stop pleading. Start declaring. You will never pray amiss… If you pray scriptures.

This gave me so much mixed feelings. The video is gruesome. He was pleading with the officers to spare his life and he will take them to the friend who sent him to deliver the package. The fear in his voice as he pleaded. His brother was also killed by the Nigerian police force in 2022. Why would you kill a suspect who wasn’t posing any threat? Why not arrest and conduct investigation and let Justice take its due course? What kind of gruesome murder is this in broad day light? Two brothers from the same family gone. This is what the Nigerian police happily say whenever they are on duty. “I will kill you and nothing will happen”. For them to have done this in public and broad daylight do you know the number of innocent people they must have killed? The Nigerian police is a big shame.

i have no interest in other people’s lives & that’s why i don’t like it when other people take interest in mine.

Nobody really talks about how waiting on God is hard. Somedays you have it altogether and some days you burst into tears wondering how long this season would take. May happiness find you and make you smile again!

@harcetyl 😲😲😲 nawa o. Just 3 weeks o

new registrar resumed at my dept. resigned in three weeks. same old reasons. toxicity. another one is planning to do the same, for the same reason. which is why I won't talk down people who chose not to be resident. na who survive be conso. not everyone would survive that sh*t.

You are not moody and sad. You are just low on funds.

@abassajayi Congratulations Chief 🎉🎉

Alhamdulillah I have been board certified by the West African college of surgeons as a fellow in Neurosurgery. MBBS MSc MIAD MRCS FWACS

Never will it be heard that in the end I failed

if you ask me, canceling plans because of sun/heat is a very valid reason.

The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors should not have to beg for what has already been agreed upon. The Federal Government signed a deal on the Professional Allowance Table, and now it wants to abandon it. This is not governance; it is betrayal. Our resident doctors are the last line of defence in hospitals that are already collapsing. They work gruelling hours, in impossible conditions, for pay that insults their sacrifice. And now, the government seeks to take away the little that was promised? The Tinubu administration must demonstrate commitment to the issues: 19 months of unpaid Professional Allowance arrears; promotion arrears gathering dust; a Medical Residency Training Fund stuck in bureaucratic limbo; and a government that treats its doctors as an afterthought and remains unconcerned as they flee the country in droves. Every doctor Nigeria loses to the UK, Canada, or Saudi Arabia is a failure of leadership, not a failure of patriotism. You cannot ask people to serve a nation that refuses to honour its own word. I stand with NARD. Pay what you owe. Honour what you signed. Or explain to 200 million Nigerians why their hospitals will go dark on Tuesday. -AA

Tinubu in Jos Confirms ‘Don't Vote for Me’ Prediction on Power Supply During the 2023 campaign, President Tinubu made a clear electoral promise: “If I don’t give you constant electricity in four years, don’t vote for me for a second term.” When he took office in 2023, Nigeria had a power supply of over 4,000 megawatts and lower tariffs. Today, the electricity power supply is less than 4,000 megawatts on the average, and Nigerians are paying higher tariffs. Nigeria currently has the lowest per capita electricity consumption in the world, with a rate below 30% of the African average. Africa’s average is 617kwh, Nigeria’s is 144 kWh. This means that Nigerians consume least electricity than other Africans. In a glaring display of disregard for promises and a lack of trust, President Tinubu, during a brief airport stopover to visit grieving families of the Jos attack on Thursday, April 2, 2026, stated that one of the reasons for his 10-minute stay was that the airport had no electricity. “You have no light here I fly out in ten minutes” At a time when Nigerians are enduring days without power, our leaders cannot even stay a few minutes without it. Now is the time to stop incompetent leaders—those lacking the capacity and compassion—who prioritise their own comfort over the well-being of the people and make empty promises. A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

More Christians were massacred today in Nigeria by terrorists — & the world is SILENT. Again.

Tinubu is campaigning with electricity again, after he used it in his first term. Does this man take Nigerians for fools?

@n6oflife6 They didn't see that coming

Tonights Rain announces that we are about Entering the Season when Solar Panels become completely Useless. 😂😂😎

The people in government in this country have seized all the money and are throwing crumbs at the rest of us. 1 year of a doctor’s or nurse’s total allowances no reach one senator’s monthly wardrobe allowance. Now imagine a teacher.

If you knew what Nigerian doctors earn monthly, you’d wonder why any of them still go to work.

@imghelpinghand I'm interested. Especially for internal medicine and paediatrics

If any medical student wants to be part of a research group, let us know

Any mistake we have made that closed the door of favour in our lives, by the mercy of God, let that door be open now.🤲
