@Onsogbu @PeterObi Hahaha, poor man cursing rich man Change your dealer

Peter Gregory Onwubuasi Obi @PeterObi, I curse you, it will stick with you till your 10th generation.... The President, just back from a foreign trip to France, was in a meeting with people in charge of: 🇺🇸 Citibank — $2.6T in assets 🇫🇷 Amundi — $2.6T AUM 🇺🇸 PGIM (Prudential) — $1.38T AUM 🇬🇧🇿🇦 Ninety One — ~$178B AUM 🇬🇧 BlueCrest — elite hedge fund 🌍 Kirkoswald — global macro & EM debt 🇺🇸🇬🇧 Principal Finisterre — EM debt specialist 🇺🇸 Mesarete Capital — Africa-focused fund So while he was on the trip, with senior members of his cabinet, even when he wasn’t meeting our biggest CEOs like last week in France, he was engaging with other global CEOs and investors. He also went to France last December with our top business leaders like Tony Elumelu, Abdul Samad Rabiu and others. Same with China and Brazil.

State visits by Leaders are not tourism, and diplomacy is not a fashion parade. Every foreign trip undertaken by a government must deliver measurable benefits to the people, including investments, technology transfer, trade agreements, factory expansion, industrial partnerships, and job creation. During President Trump’s recent visit to China, the American delegation reportedly included a few top government officials, and many of the biggest figures in global business and technology: Consequently, huge trade deals worth several billion dollars including about 200 Boeing orders were achieved. The list of the entourage included 1. Donald J. Trump – President of the United States 2. Marco Rubio – Secretary of State 3. Pete Hegseth – Secretary of Defence 4. Elon Musk – CEO, Tesla & SpaceX 5. Jensen Huang – CEO, Nvidia 6. Tim Cook – CEO, Apple 7. Larry Fink – CEO, BlackRock 8. Stephen Schwarzman – CEO, Blackstone 9. Kelly Ortberg – CEO, Boeing 10. Brian Sikes – CEO, Cargill 11. Jane Fraser – CEO, Citigroup 12. Larry Culp – CEO, General Electric 13. David Solomon – CEO, Goldman Sachs 14. Sanjay Mehrotra – CEO, Micron Technology 15.Cristiano Amon – CEO, Qualcomm 16. Dina P. McCormick – President of Meta 17. Ryan McInerney – CEO, Visa 18. Michael Miebach – President, Mastercard 19. Jim Anderson – CEO, Coherent 20. Jacob Thaysen – CEO, Illumina That is how serious nations approach diplomacy, by aligning foreign policy with economic expansion, industrial growth, innovation, and national productivity. I hope that lessons can be learned from these recent visits comparing them with the President of Nigeria’s recent state visit to the United Kingdom. A large entourage of politicians, aides, and government officials travelled, yet Nigerians are still asking a simple question: what exactly did Nigeria bring home? Which factories are coming to Nigeria? What power, technology, manufacturing, agricultural, or industrial agreements were secured? How many direct jobs will this visit create for Nigerian youths? What investments were attracted? What measurable economic outcomes can the ordinary Nigerian point to? The delegation reportedly included: 1. President Bola Tinubu 2. Senator (Mrs) Tinubu 3.12 governors 4.9 ministers 5.7 members of the National Assembly 6. Over 20 senior State House staff 7. Over 30 security personnel 8. Over 10 domestic staff 9. Several supporters and associates It is not enough to ride horses, wear matching uniforms, attend royal banquets, and release glossy photographs. Symbolism without substance cannot feed hungry citizens. Today, Nigeria is in decline, battling serious insecurity, food insecurity, unemployment, a weakened naira, declining industrial productivity, and worsening poverty. At a time when millions of Nigerians struggle daily to afford food and survive economic hardship, every kobo spent on foreign trips must produce tangible national value: investments, factories, jobs, exports, infrastructure, and economic opportunities. Nigeria needs leadership that is focused less on optics and more on productivity; less on ceremony and more on measurable economic results. A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

@osazenoo @lindaikeji I hope you don't have savings in your bank account or have you used it to solve all your problems?

@lindaikeji It’s safe to say saving money is better than fixing real issues in the state then, right?

@renoomokri You are still explaining since morning, very funny man

Politics without bitterness is politics that will bring betterness. May Nigeria prosper under President Tinubu between 2023 and 2031, so help us, God!

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

Many isolationists in the US argue that America should not engage in military operations overseas, therefore in Iran and Lebanon. Yet those isolationists have one thing in common: they support the #IranDeal and they are supported by the brokers of the #ObamaDeal...

@renoomokri My happiness is that only Yaribas are supporting Tinubu

Dear Peter Obi, You worked for Abacha, so of course, you will defend your boss. But how on Earth can you say General Abacha "will be remembered as seemingly more democratic and more respectful of human rights than the so-called champions of activism from the NADECO days." Do you know how many state-sponsored murders of prominent Nigerians your boss, Abacha, whom you served as a task force appointee, was responsible for? Let me help you with some: Mrs Kudirat Abiola Major General Shehu Yar'adua (via injection) Chief Alfred Rewane Admiral Olu Omotehinwa Alhaja Suliat Adedeji Dr Sola Omatsola Bagauda Kaltho Toyin Onagoruwa Mrs Bisoye Tejuoso Rear Admiral Babatunde Elegbede Ken Saro-Wiwa and the Ogoni Nine (judicially murdered) To mention only a few. And yet, today, you are dancing on the grave of all these great Nigerians by claiming that Abacha is better than President Tinubu. Has there been even one single state-sponsored murder under President Tinubu? If the President was worse than General Abacha, as you claim, would you, Peter, still be free after repeatedly lying about the state of things in Nigeria, just to de-market the country? Peter, may God forgive you for disrespecting and dishonouring the memories of these good men and women who died to give Nigeria the democracy you are enjoying today.

@AreAyodeji42215 @VivianIfeomaOj Shut up

@VivianIfeomaOj Still embittered with civil war, after several years ago, though both sides had casualties,and federal was good enough with no victor no vanquished ,yet very unforgiving and you want to rule Nigeria,do you think Hausa/Fulani can trust you with power, knowing weight of president

Gowon, if you had signed the Aburi Peace Accord that you and Ojukwu agreed on for regional autonomy, so that every region could govern themselves, all these senseless killings wouldn’t be happening today. But instead of peace, you chose the path of war in 1967, and 3 million Igbo people lost their lives, then everyone was forced into this one Nigeria. God has kept you alive so you can witness what’s happening today, the people you call brothers are the ones massacring your own people in Plateau State. The East remembers!

Lagos is just a state, but it got a massive £746 million loan. It won’t share it with Rivers or Bayelsa. But my oil money will pay back the loan. The entire Nigeria will pay back the loan. LAGOS WILL REMAIN A NO MAN’S LAND!

@kayodeakinlolu @royaltyuso @fkeyamo So is it not southern turn when the Yorubas removed Jonathan, we the south east will teach the betrayals lesson, please stop talking about southern unity because nobody is united as you assume.

@royaltyuso @fkeyamo It won't actually. ADC is in a dilemma, if they Feild AA the APC will run a Southern turn Agenda and blackmail the north for wanting to scatter the country, if they give it to OBI APC will campaign with BAT having only one term bla bla bla... It's really dicey.

So, there is no hiding place for the opposition, just like there is no hiding place for the ruling party. Let the neck-pressing continue without letup: The ADC is scared to clearly ZONE its Presidential ticket, like the other major parties (PDP and APC) have done, because the party belongs to one man called Atiku Abubakar @atiku. It is the EXACT corner that Atiku pushed PDP to in 2023 that ADC now finds itself - the inability to zone its Presidential ticket. In a highly sensitive country like Nigeria, any pan-Nigerian Party MUST be clear as to zoning. The APC Governors did so in 2023 and triumphed. The PDP is still reeling from that disastrous decision in 2023. ATIKU wants to camouflage with Peter Obi and surreptitiously secure his votes and become President on a flawed template that will damage our fragile unity as a nation. And Peter Obi is supporting this contraption for selfish reasons - throwing the entire country under the bus for a mess of pottage called a VP ticket. He will soon learn in a hard way. Commiserations to the naive Obi supporters who are being led into a dead end by wily, old war horses in politics. They will all come back to thank us later after the disaster to which they are all heading.

Dear @GWR, APPLICATION FOR THE RECORD OF THE MOST NATIONAL GRID COLLAPSES IN A SINGLE COUNTRY. I am writing to formally request that Nigeria be recognized and awarded a world record for the most collapses of a national electricity grid. As of this year, Nigeria's national grid has experienced a record 11 collapses, with a strong possibility of reaching a dozen within the next 2 days. This frequency... approximately a 90% chance of collapse every two days...makes it a significant, global precedent. We believe this unique statistic merits official recognition. Moreover, Nigeria has also become the only country to constitute a committee on National grid collapse. (Another potential world record) The number of collapses can be authenticated by the official National Grid account on X , where each collapse is publicly documented. In other words, this is officially amazing. As a dedicated Nigerian and the applicant for this record, I respectfully request the exclusive right to receive this recognition on behalf of the country. This honor can remain with me until another Nigerian applies in the future, because the grid's instability na sure 10 odds. Thank you for considering this application. I look forward to your response. Sincerely, General , Snow. (Nigerians tag @GWR , let's bring this home)
