I have postponed my trip to Iperu, Ogun State. My first duty at this moment is to stand with the people of Plateau.
I will be in Jos to commiserate with families who have lost loved ones and to reaffirm that those who seek to spread fear will not prevail. We will continue to strengthen our security response and ensure that justice is done.
From Plateau, I will proceed to Lagos to observe Good Friday, and then continue with scheduled engagements in Ogun, Lagos, and Bayelsa focused on infrastructure, trade, and economic growth.
In moments of grief, we must stand together. In moments of progress, we must keep building.
The work continues. Nigeria First.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu
President
@officialABAT So after how many days of silence, Pres. Tinubu suddenly remembers Plateau? This is the problem: reacting late, speaking soft, and acting only when optics demand it.
@officialABAT people are asking, Why do these attacks keep happening without decisive prevention?
Where are the security reforms?
Why does justice always feel slow or absent?Standing with Plateau should not start days later it should be immediate, consistent, and backed by visible results.
@officialABAT How many days after the killings did this response come? Lives were lost, families destroyed, communities displaced, yet silence dominated until now. Leadership is not just about showing up eventually; it’s about urgency, empathy, and presence when it matters most.
@itumasunny2496@PeterObi Records of his projects and fiscal performance don’t disappear because you choose to deny them. Obi's documented outcomes remain verifiable, whether you admit it or not.
@Original_stan1@PeterObi Peter Obi never did any of these things you mentioned here. If he he would be very proud to mention them whenever he is asked to. Okpoko that first saw any form of govt presence in Soludo's time? Your Obi was a total failure as Governor.
Yesterday, Saturday 28th March, I travelled to Aba, Abia State to honour the invitation of the representative of the people Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe and to meet stakeholders of the Africa Democratic Congress (ADC).
I thank Senator Abaribe and his team for the warm reception and I thank Governor Alex Otti for the good work he has done in Enyimba City.
I had a one-hour interview with Magic fm which is my first interview on the radio and TV this year. I thank the stakeholders of ADC for their warm welcome and the good interaction we had.
When I speak about moving the country from consumption to production Aba remains one of the cities that will contribute immensely to that as it remains a home for garment and shoe production. Both products, garments and shoe remains top and earn as much as we earn from oil for Bangladesh and Vietnam respectively and can do so for Nigeria if well managed and supported.
Our challenge remains Competent leadership with capacity, compassion, and commitment to the development of our country as it is in other comparable nations.
A New Nigeria Is POssible. -PO
@mrnecs@normenemy@renoomokri since the federal government is aware that many states and local governments are not translating these funds into visible improvements, why not design direct, transparent mechanisms to ensure the benefits reach citizens? Exactly what Tinubu promised us.
@Original_stan1@normenemy@renoomokri For the benefit to reach you. Ask you governors what they’re doing with your monthly allocation in your state. Thats why you have a governor
As a Nigerian, the only thing you have experienced since the Iran War is higher petrol prices, like the rest of the world. However, you are not seeing fuel queues, unlike the rest of the world, including America, which produces and refines by far more fuel than we do.
Please fact-check me: the Middle East crisis led to long lines at gas stations in Europe and America.
And even petrol prices are gradually coming down.
The removal of fuel subsidy has worked. Nigeria has permanently solved the problem of product availability. Over time, we will also fully resolve the affordability challenge.
May God bless President Bola Tinubu and Alhaji Aliko Dangote, who, through reform and the implementation of such policies, have turned Nigeria from Africa's largest fuel importer in 2023 to West Africa's biggest exporter of refined petroleum products in 2026.

@itumasunny2496@PeterObi not measured by insults or shouting, but by documented outcomes, budgets, and sustained fiscal discipline, all of which are verifiable in Anambra’s records.
@itumasunny2496@PeterObi Improvements to public schools and ICT enabled governance systems
He also cleared salary arrears, improved IGR, and left Anambra with one of the strongest fiscal positions in Nigeria at the time, consistently ranking high in transparency and debt management.
Development is
@renoomokri You can write all the glowing numbers you want, but Nigerians are living the opposite reality, rising costs, weaker currency, and deeper hardship.
Happy 74th Birthday To The Father of the Emerging New Nigeria
Dear President Bola Ahmed Tinubu,
On behalf of my family, please permit me to wish you a happy 74th birthday and declare you the father of an emerging New Nigeria and the global Face of Beneficial Reforms.
Mr President, in three years, you have added $67 billion to our economy, with our GDP rising from ₦269.29 trillion on May 29, 2023, when you became President, to ₦372.8 trillion today.
You have overseen the expansion of our capital market, as the total market capitalisation of the Nigerian Exchange, which stood at ₦27.915 trillion on December 30, 2022, before you took over the saddle, hit ₦122 trillion in January of 2026, which we thought was unprecedented. That is almost five times what it was before you were elected.
But what we thought was unprecedented has now been precedented, with the All Share Index hitting the 200,000-point mark on Monday, March 16, 2026.
Mr President, during the campaigns, you promised Local Government Autonomy, and have delivered on that promise on Thursday, July 11, 2024.
Almost a million Nigerian students are living out your student loan promise as a reality in our ivory towers.
You said a four-year course would be a four-year course, as you vowed to eradicate strikes by the Academic Staff Union of Nigerian Universities by adequately funding the education sector. That promise is fulfilled as this is the first time in forever that Nigeria has gone three years without a nationwide ASUU strike.
And quite significant to me, as a diplomat, is the fact that you have delivered to Nigeria her most significant diplomatic feat in thirty-seven years, with your State Visit to the United Kingdom on the invitation of His Royal Majesty, King Charles III.
For these accomplishments, and for turning Nigeria from the largest importer of fuel in Africa in 2023, to the single biggest exporter of refined petroleum products in West Africa in 2026, I proudly flew the City Boy Movement Flag on the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, which is the highest peak in Africa, signifying that you have taken Nigeria to the height of the continent.
On that basis, my family and I join a grateful nation in wishing you a very happy birthday and many returns of this day, in good health and prosperity.
May God bless you, and may God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria and all Nigerians.

@itumasunny2496@PeterObi The same talking too much person did better than his predecessor and successor and still stands taller than anything your generation or your forefathers have produced.
@PeterObi If you couldn't experiment those your emergencies ideas with Anambra State, a State so reach in enterprise and entrepreneurs, then just shut up your mouth you can't do anything even if you made the President of Qatar. You talk too much.
@normenemy@renoomokri funds into visible improvements, the question is simple: Why not design direct, transparent mechanisms to ensure the benefits reach citizens?
Mentioning NELFUND, CNG, or infrastructure is fine, but the reality is that the cost of living has surged faster than any visible relief.
@normenemy@renoomokri You can’t centralize fuel pricing, subsidy removal, and FX decisions at the federal level, then outsource accountability to governors when people ask where the money went. And since the federal government is aware that many states and local governments are not translating these
@Olamitokunboh2@renoomokri The same government that controls fuel pricing can’t suddenly say go ask governors when people ask questions. You can’t centralize power and decentralize blame at the same time.
@Original_stan1@renoomokri What do you mean by queues reduced? Where do you have any queues at all over the country. The challenge is affordability not availability. Fuel is everywhere. You just have to drive to where it is relatively cheaper.
@EOshunsan@renoomokri Nobody asked for free fuel. Citizens are asking why an oil producing country now pays some of the highest prices in its history with no clear improvement in living standards.
@Original_stan1@renoomokri Do you want it free? The vote for your candidate, campaign for him on the mantra that he will give fuel free to citizens, especially his loyalists. There will be no tax or any form of payment. Ungrateful things
@renoomokri cherry picking global headlines won’t hide the fact that Nigerians are poorer today and petrol jumped 5× mainly because of domestic policy decisions. You can quote the IMF, Argentina, or Tanzania all day, but Nigerians know their wallets are lighter
Dear Peter Obi,
In the past three years, you have praised many countries and negatively compared them to Nigeria, including:
The United States
Argentina
Egypt, and
Bangladesh
Then you even started dressing like an Indonesian after your visit to Indonesia.
Are you aware that in all these countries, petrol (gasoline) prices have also gone up?
Does that mean that these countries also 'failed to plan’?
Please fact-check me: Gasoline prices have risen by 21% in the U.S. and by 28.36% in Canada.
Both Canada and the United States produce more oil and gas than Nigeria. Yet, they are facing the same price rises as we are.
You also praised Tanzania. Well, I am currently in Tanzania, and just last week, on Wednesday, March 4, 2026, petrol prices went up by more than 10% in response to the Iran War.
Remember that in August 2025, you counselled Nigeria to copy Argentina's economic reforms under President Javier Milei.
Today, Argentina's economy has collapsed. Their inflation rate has increased from 32.4% to 33.1%, and the Argentine peso is among the world's worst-performing currencies, amid massive devaluation.
Meanwhile, The Economist Magazine reported last month that Nigeria's "golden years" are likely to return due to President Tinubu's reforms. The IMF listed Nigeria as the sixth-largest contributor to global GDP growth in 2025, a fact celebrated by Elon Musk, the world's richest man. And the World Bank has said they now cite Nigeria as a perfect example of reforms that work.
Imagine where Nigeria would be if we had followed your advice and emulated Argentina.
Peter, I know you are desperate to become President, but this is not how to go about it.
Take a chill pill and chillax!

Healthcare and education absolutely deserve support, no argument there.
But real development isn’t just about symbolic visits and donations. It’s about sustainable systems, policy consistency, accountability, and measurable impact. A ₦15M donation is helpful, yes, but how does it scale? How does it fix structural gaps?
If we truly want a “New Nigeria,” the focus has to move from moments to long-term, transparent solutions that outlive headlines.
My visit to Benin, Edo State.
On Tuesday, 24 February, in continuation of my commitment to supporting critical sectors of development - healthcare, education, and poverty reduction - I visited Benin City. While there, I stopped at the Philomena School of Nursing Sciences, one of the largest nursing institutions in the region.
This was not my first visit. Over the years, I have made it a duty to encourage both staff and students of schools across the country as they pursue excellence in healthcare training. In further demonstration of this commitment to Philomena School of Nursing Sciences, and to support the school’s facilities as I have done previously, I donated the sum of fifteen million (=N=15M) naira.
I call on government at all levels, as well as wealthy Nigerians, to channel greater attention and resources toward the critical pillars of development - security, healthcare, education and poverty reduction.
These are the foundations upon which a just and prosperous society must stand.

Thirty-two months after being incharge and instead of living by his powerful words, he now dumps National Grid that has been performing abysmally under his watch.
Those were the powerful words then that inspired hope among Nigerians who longed for light in their homes, stability for their businesses, and growth for their nation. Yet, while Nigerians are still grappling with that unfulfilled, categorical electoral promise - and without clear communication on the obstacles, if any, we read of provision in 2025 budget about the ₦10 billion for solar power at Aso Rock, and in 2026 budget another humongous amount for upgrade and maintenance and now we are being scarcitically told that Presidential Villa has planned to be disconnected from the national grid to rely entirely on solar.
It is a gross neglect and deeply worrisome when the seat of power abandons the national grid. One would expect government institutions to lead efforts to strengthen and expand the grid so that other establishments, and ultimately, citizens can benefit. If those in authority disconnect themselves from the system, who then will connect the ordinary Nigerian to reliable power?
Promoting renewable energy, as solar systems do, is commendable and necessary for the future. However, this situation reflects a deeper concern: governance lacking compassion and commitment to the governed. You cannot tell the people to fast while feasting yourself, securing yourself while Nigerians remain unsecured.
Nigerians do not expect 100% fulfilment of promises, but they do expect 100% effort, accompanied by measurable improvements and clear explanations when gaps exist. Leadership must serve the people, not isolate itself from their daily struggles. -PO
