Boiling beans.

Coming online has become depressing. Watching Nigerians being chased in foreign countries, being kidnapped and killed in their own country. When home isn't safe and abroad has become dangerous for Nigerians. Where do we go from here? Do the leaders of this country have any shame?

I used to think the hardest part of motherhood was the sleep deprivation. Then the tantrums. Then the school runs. Then the homework battles. But nobody tells you about the invisible weight, the mental load that never switches off. The fact that you are responsible for every appointment, every permission slip, every last clean uniform, every emotional breakdown in the house, including your own, which you quietly schedule for the shower at 11pm. You are not lazy. You are not ungrateful. You are one person doing the work of four and calling it ‘just being a mum.’ Put it down, sometimes love, just for a minute. You’re allowed. 🤎

Tomorrow they’ll act like there’s some big conspiracy theory behind multiple Nigeria men getting caught abroad sleeping with kids. It’s the norm for you pigs.

Troubling Developments from the citadel of learning. The reason Universities are regarded as an ivory tower is because its seen as centres for pure, isolated intellectual thought. It's therefore worrisome when they are increasingly pressured to operate outside this norm. Today, I was scheduled to be at Obafemi Awolowo University at 9am prompt to deliver a keynote lecture, before proceeding to Ibadan for the opposition parties' political summit scheduled to commence at 12noon. The invitation was extended to me several months ago, and adequate preparations had been made. Regrettably, I received the news that the event would no longer be held in the University as planned. While such occurrences may be dismissed in isolation, it is important to state clearly that this has now happened more than ten times. This is no longer incidental; it points to a troubling pattern that should concern all well-meaning Nigerians. My alma mater, the University of Nigeria, Nsukka was not excluded. The family of one of the renowned UNN Vice Chancellor late Professor Frank Ndili had planned an annual lecture on his behalf and the inaugural lecture was to be delivered, but on the scheduled date it was cancelled by the University authority. These are not merely personal inconveniences; they raise deeper questions about the kind of environment we are nurturing in our country. Universities are meant to be centres of learning, open dialogue, and the free exchange of ideas. When platforms for constructive engagement are repeatedly constrained, it reflects a worrying shift away from these ideals. This concern becomes even more pronounced when viewed against my engagements across the world, where I have been privileged to speak and interact freely with students and scholars in respected institutions. In the past 24 months, I have delivered lectures in notable universities globally including Oxford University, Cambridge University, Harvard University, Yale University, Princeton University, Chicago University, University of Pennsylvania, Imperial College, to name a few. Those environments continue to demonstrate openness to dialogue, critical thinking, and shared learning, values that should equally define our own institutions. We must ask ourselves: what kind of nation are we building if spaces meant for intellectual engagement are gradually shrinking? A country’s progress is anchored on its ability to encourage knowledge, debate, and the contest of ideas, not restrict them. Nigeria must work towards becoming a place where ideas thrive, where knowledge is shared without fear, and where our institutions uphold the principles they were established to protect. A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

This can't be real. These people have truly lost their minds. Grown fools

Even Nazi Germany didn't go this far this fast. Have they all lost their brains? Wtf is this?

This was how the governor of Plateau State quarantined and sanitized our streets during the 2020 lockdown. This was it o, our governor Simeon Lalong. 👏🏽

i will stop treating people that support this government like animals, i need to find something worse.

You rescue dogs for a living. It pains your heart to see stray dogs who could have decent shelter, and dogs maltreated by their owners. In the evening, You go and hang out with Ekaette who sells dog peppersoup. You're deceiving yourself. This tweet is not about dogs.

You can’t claim to be saving children from the slum while you’re in bed with the people responsible for populating the slums. It makes no sense

Exactly how it will eventually play out

I really wish South African government can deport all the Nigerians there. Like, I really hope they do. This is a musician, not just an ordinary person. Please, force your government to send all Nigerians home. Revoke their residences!
