Faith sees the miracle even when the situation looks impossible.

The Mission Hospital That Keeps Hope Alive I left Enugu early this morning for Ogoja/Yala Local Government Area of Cross River State. My first stop was the Catholic Maternity Hospital, Moniaya, Ogoja. This decades-old facility remains virtually the only maternity hospital serving the entire Ogoja area. Despite its age and the enormous responsibility it bears, it continues to provide care for thousands of women and newborns with limited resources. Nigeria still ranks among the countries with the highest maternal and infant mortality rates in the world, despite having overtaken countries such as China and India, whose populations are several times larger than ours. This is not just a statistic; it represents mothers, babies, and families whose lives are forever changed by preventable tragedies. The hospital also operates a Tuberculosis and Leprosy Centre, providing vital healthcare services that are becoming increasingly rare. To support their commendable work, I made a token donation of ₦10 million and assured them of my continued partnership. I urge governments at all levels, the private sector, and well-meaning Nigerians to support institutions like this, run by voluntary and faith-based organisations. Investing in healthcare and education is investing in our future. -PO

I received a phone call from Mr Peter Obi and am deeply grateful for the words of encouragement from His Excellency, Mr. Peter Obi, in appreciation of our 65 Free Adenotonsillectomy and ENT Surgery Initiative, organized to mark his birthday and give back to our country, Nigeria. As of today, we have screened over 50 patients, categorizing them into surgical and non-surgical cases while also managing other medical conditions where necessary. What has been particularly inspiring is that beneficiaries have come not only from different parts of Lagos but also from Benin, Awka, Enugu, and Owerri. This reminds us that disease knows no boundaries, and quality healthcare should be accessible to everyone, regardless of where they live. Surgeries for the selected patients will commence this week, and beneficiaries will be contacted through the phone number previously used to reach them. Tomorrow is the final day of the free screening, which ends at 4:00 p.m. 📍 Venue: Infirmorium Catholic Hospital, No. 1 Olufemi Street, off Ogunlana Drive, Surulere, Lagos. My sincere appreciation to everyone who has supported this initiative. Together, we are restoring health and giving hope, one patient at a time. Dr. Adefolaseye Adebomi Adebayo ENT Surgeon

@masuzafi I agree with you my sister 💗

This is what real friendship between nations looks like. While the world stays busy with noise and posturing, Mexico sent 200 of its own firefighters to help Canada fight its fires. No press tour. No conditions. Just people showing up when it mattered. Mark Carney was right to pause and say thank you out loud. In a time when solidarity is often performed for cameras, this was quiet, practical, and human. To the Mexican firefighters who left their homes to stand in someone else’s flames thank you. To Mexico for answering the call thank you. That’s how neighbors behave when the smoke rises.

@Peter4Nigeria Good, let the youths take back their country.

@MarkJCarney I love this part "our unity is our greatest strength and our destiny is our hands" These are indeed trying times for the world...there's time for everything. This too shall pass away. May the Almighty God continue to guide and strengthen our leaders 🙏

Canada is strongest when we are united.   This week, the Premiers and I focused on strengthening our energy independence, breaking down barriers to labour mobility and internal trade, and catalysing investment with more effective carbon markets — building a stronger, more competitive, more prosperous Canada for all.

@AishaYesufu Thank you for the love you shower on our sister and for being a strong foundation pillar in the live of your family. You are seen. You will live long...

Two months ago, we started negotiating a new free trade agreement with the UAE. Today, we concluded those negotiations. That means lower tariffs, new opportunities for Canadian workers, and better access to the UAE’s $700 billion economy for Canadian businesses.

@ruffydfire Words are powerful...so how then does he expect anything to change? This is a declaration and now he has joined the team of failures...

It's rather unfortunate 😕

Mr. Kwankwaso powerful interview on News Central a must listen.

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

@PeterObi Amen and Amen 🙏

MY REMARKS ON THE ENUGU AIR RUNWAY EXCURSION AT BENIN AIRPORT I received, with profound relief, the news of the runway excursion involving an Enugu Air aircraft during its landing at Benin Airport today. First, I join all Nigerians in expressing heartfelt gratitude to God Almighty that all 68 passengers and crew members on board disembarked safely, with no injuries or casualties recorded. The safety of human lives must always remain our highest priority. I commend the pilot, the flight crew, and the airport emergency response teams at Benin Airport for their swift and professional handling of the situation, which averted what could have been a major tragedy. Their calmness and decisiveness under pressure are deeply commendable. While we celebrate this safe outcome, the incident serves as a sober reminder of the critical need for strict adherence to aviation safety protocols, rigorous routine maintenance, and continuous infrastructure upgrades across our airports nationwide. I urge the relevant regulatory and investigative bodies—particularly the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) and the Nigerian Safety Investigation Bureau (NSIB)—to conduct a thorough, transparent, and timely investigation into the root cause of this incident. Learning from occurrences such as this is essential to strengthening public confidence in our aviation sector and ensuring that our skies remain consistently safe. May God continue to guide and protect all travellers across our nation. – PO

@FrUgochukwu Amen 🙏

🙏🙏🙏

@PeterObi Keep building trust my incoming President...your efforts shall not be in vain

Strengthening Development Through Partnership Yesterday, I met with the Swiss Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Patrick Egloff, and we had a productive and engaging discussion on our country’s developmental journey, with particular emphasis on the critical sectors that drive development: education, healthcare, and lifting people out of poverty. I expressed my gratitude for the invaluable contributions of the Swiss Confederation to Nigeria’s development, especially its support for critical economic, cultural, humanitarian, and peace-building initiatives, particularly in the North-East. Building stronger partnerships founded on shared values and a commitment to human development remains essential to creating a more prosperous and inclusive Nigeria. A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

@MarkJCarney Together, Everyone Achieves More - TEAM Canada 🇨🇦 Our enemies shall surely be put to shame. There's time for everything under the sun...this too shall pass away...

We are bigger, stronger, and more prosperous when we are united.   Today, I spoke with the Premiers to discuss the latest in a series of unilateral United States trade actions.   Canada will work relentlessly and take any measures necessary to build our strength at home and to support Canadian workers, farmers, businesses, and families.
