@ChelseaFC I am fine with this line-up. I want Tottenham to stay up. Anything lower than the Champions League is a distraction. This season is pretty much wrapped up, and I'm already looking forward to next season.

@UnkleAyo If only polls could win elections....Loool. Ain't happening. BAT would rather lose the Presidency than lose Lagos if it comes down to it. There is too much at stake here.

@diisa2002 Abeg, let's take it easy with the questions on GRV. He is in a very difficult position, and I don't envy him. He is quite clear. Remember, Obidients have vowed not to do top-to-bottom again. He is a good guy.

@diisa2002 I never have, and still don't trust Pst Dayo Ekong... she should be changed if NDC is looking to make progress in Lagos.

@tudobams @tudobams @realPSaviour, are we sure one of the reasons GRV did not move to NDC was because of Pastor Ekong?

Yesterday, we took a bold and decisive step by formally joining the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC).
At the residence of Senator Seriake Dickson in Abuja, I announced that our decision stems from a deep commitment to democratic values.
We are determined to provide our people with a credible platform where they can thrive and realise their full potential.
I therefore call on all our dedicated supporters and well-meaning Nigerians to join the NDC and stand with us in this renewed fight for good governance and true democracy. - RMK

Fellow Nigerians, good morning.
I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you.
Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry daily—the private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances.
We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the people—a society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal.
More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism.
We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishness—a system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power.
Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise.
Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them.
However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building.
Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in one’s own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated.
And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions.
There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline?
Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from.
Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all.
A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

@osazenoo "Calling in favors"!!!!we all know what this means in Nigerian political playbook.
English

Any serious politician would do well to study the playbook of Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
After investing years into building both party structure and electoral victories, most notably backing the rise and reelection of Muhammadu Buhari; he found himself in a paradox: the very system he helped strengthen grew distant, and at moments, even resistant to his own ambition in 2023. Within the All Progressives Congress, there were clear signs of hesitation, internal pushback, and shifting loyalties.
But instead of walking away or fracturing the platform, he chose to stay the course. He leaned on years of political capital, relationships, and influence; calling in favors, consolidating alliances, and navigating internal battles that could have derailed a less seasoned operator. Where others might have retreated, he doubled down.
He stood by the party he helped build, even when that loyalty wasn’t fully reciprocated. And in doing so, he demonstrated a core lesson in Nigerian politics: power isn’t just about popularity or momentum; it’s about endurance, structure, and the ability to outlast resistance within and beyond your own camp.
