In 2027, will Nigerians choose Peter Obi – not as a messiah, but as a man whose public record speaks to restraint, accountability, and an almost unfashionable belief that public office is a place for service, not spectacle? guardian.ng/opinion/easter…

Nigeria will argue about politics for 12 hours straight on TV, but nobody wants to talk about the quiet massacre happening in our hospitals. In the past few days I have heard horrifying stories about healthcare facilities in Enugu State. Hospitals with no light. No oxygen. No reagents. Barely any doctors. Wrong diagnosis due to bad or outdated equipments. Imagine bringing a loved one to a hospital hoping to save their life… only to discover the hospital itself is helpless. How many people have died simply because the system failed them? How many families buried someone who could have lived if the hospital had basic equipment? Joy Ezeugwu’s revelations about Uwani General Hospital in Enugu opened a window into something many people already knew but were too tired to speak about. Yes, they say the light has now been fixed. Yes, they say the hospital management has been fired. But let’s be honest. Fixing one light is not fixing the system. Across many state health facilities especially in remote villages and poorer neighborhoods, the situation is reportedly worse. No reagents for tests. Broken equipment. Understaffed wards. Buildings that look abandoned. These are supposed to be life-saving institutions, yet many of them look like places where hope goes to die. Healthcare should never depend on whether you are rich enough to go to a private hospital. The poor deserve to live too. The truth is simple: A society that cannot provide basic healthcare for its people is sitting on a moral failure. This is not about politics. This is about human lives. The Commissioner for Health in Enugu State and the entire health leadership need to urgently conduct a full public audit of all state hospitals especially the ones hidden in rural areas. Let Nigerians see the truth. Because if the stories we are hearing are even half true, then what is happening in some of these hospitals is nothing short of a national emergency. We cannot keep losing people to problems that should not exist in 2026. Healthcare cannot be a privilege. It must be a guarantee. And the lives of the poor must matter.

“Seun, I will not need a new jet. I can’t use N150bn to buy a jet (when 80% of our Primary healthcare centers) are not functioning.” —Peter Obi.

This rubbish won’t fly again, the shigidi already used 3years, pls show working. Oloribu elenu pelebe. OBJ was a Yoruba man. Ashiere.

Whenever there is a massacre by Fulani Muslim Jihadist Terrorists anywhere in the country, especially when ever large numbers of Christians are murdered by those people, the @HQNigerianArmy ALMOST ALWAYS starts killing and arresting people in Eastern Nigeria, specifically Igbos, and make a big point of announcing either the "success" of their "operations" against "terrorists" there, or the commencement thereof. It's happened too many times now for it to be coincidence. It is actually their strategy to draw attention away from the real killers. What makes it worse is that these operations are usually announced by Southern or even Christian officers.

Today alone, I've read about several attacks in Kaduna, Benue and Borno. All leading to loss of life and kidnappings. This cannot be our fate. This isn't normal.

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

Bola Tinubu has elevated two controversial figures with deep ties to the late Gen. Sani Abacha, Sen. Abubakar Atiku Bagudu and Gilbert Chagoury, as key allies in his administration. While Tinubu positioned himself as a pro-democracy activist opposing Abacha’s military regime in the 1990s, Bagudu and Chagoury were closely associated with Abacha. According to the US Department of Justice, Bagudu played an instrumental role in helping Abacha and his associates embezzle and launder hundreds of millions to billions of dollars from Nigeria through schemes such as inflated government bond purchases routed via offshore companies. Chagoury, a Lebanese-Nigerian billionaire, was a close business associate of Abacha and was convicted in Switzerland in 2000 for assisting with money laundering linked to Sanni Abacha. Today, Bagudu serves as Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, a strategic role overseeing national budgeting and economic policy. Chagoury remains a longtime confidant and business partner of Tinubu. In January 2026, Tinubu conferred on Chagoury Nigeria’s second-highest national honour, the Grand Commander of the Order of the Niger (GCON), citing his contributions to the economy and infrastructure. Remember, these two actively undermined the interests of Nigeria with Abacha but have become central figures in Tinubu's regime.

@FinPlanKaluAja1 After playing football, wash your legs and your face then drink water from the tap next to the field, water supplied by the water works, AND not get sick, there was nothing like pure water sachets then.

Most of the kids here in X don't really understand that Nigeria was a giant Nigeria was so wealthy that it was sending engineers, doctors and professionals across Africa and the Caribbean for free. Today, it's reduced to parents struggling to get a branded carton of Maggie and tomato sauce with the photos of the president to feed kids they can't afford If all you know is hot, dirty water to drink, then cold, dirty water is an improvement Some of us drank clean water from a public tap

How is that the same shoe?! 😮 Do shoe shiners/polishers still exist?

It's a waste praying, after electing bad leaders!!

We’ve crossed the Rubicon. The propaganda of “he owns INEC, he owns the courts, he owns tomorrow” is collapsing under its own weight. He will lose woefully, not because of luck, but because the people’s anger has found structure. Those with eyes see it clearly.

If they didn’t give us a free and fair election come 2027, the ADC will form a parallel government.

This man, Baba Kekere had more capital projects than Tinubu, Fashola, Ambode and Sanwoolu combined. The records are there! This was the greatest governor Lagos state ever had. Not the NADECO snitch.
