My mind is hyperactive and needs stimulation. My brain has multiple channels, which can work at the same time. My mind seeks distraction (background noise) ☕️

Single stories are dangerous because they present a limited and often distorted perspective on a particular subject or group of people. When we only hear or believe one narrative, it can lead to stereotypes, biases, and misunderstandings.

@doccybaibee @Omabilibili What does she been married or unmarried have to do with depression or regrets? Does it mean married women don't go into depression after giving birth or in fact regret having a child? Is she slow or acting it?

@trigottista However, some Igbo men played a role in helping to push those narratives.

This young lady is right. Of course I expect idiots to miss her point and start chasing shadows. But when you choose to take a pause and engage your brain, you will see her real point. When exactly will enough be enough? When exactly will we fix Nigeria?

@nkechi_first It takes great emotional intelligence to understand how to handle such situations. Your experience can always come later to strengthen the other person.

Pain is not a competition. There is no gold medal for having the "worse" day. ​When someone trusts you enough to open up about their struggles, please resist the immediate urge to jump in and "one-up" them with your own problems. They aren't sharing with you so you can compare notes on who is suffering more; they are sharing because they need to be heard. ​The most supportive thing you can do is simply listen, validate their feelings, and hold space for them. Your problems can wait until their moment to vent is finished. Let's be better listeners. ❤️ ​#Empathy #nkechifirst

Corruption Kills. Has it not been a wonder that the more money spent on “fighting insecurity” in our country, the worse insecurity has degenerated- the less safety, more kidnappings and killings? So, let’s talk about how “Fighting Insecurity” has created a BLOODY, thriving and lucrative War Economy in Nigeria. It starts with absence of Transparency and Accountability for the spendings of our public resources on Defense and specifically on “fighting insecurity” over the last decade and half. It is enabled by the failure of Nigeria’s public financial management and of Ministry of Finance’s stewardship. What precisely have the budgeted and extra budgetary spendings (like the infamous $2.1Billion of 2014) on “Fighting Insecurity” achieved for Nigerians in the last fifteen years? Read this excerpt from the study by @anticorruption Transparency International (TI) - the world’s leading non- governmental anti-corruption organisation. With more than 100 chapters worldwide, TI has extensive global expertise and understanding of corruption. TI’s Transparency International Defence and Security (TI-DS) works to reduce corruption in defence and security worldwide and in 2017 partnered with Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre (CISLAC) @cislacnigeria to produce a report: WEAPONIZING TRANSPARENCY: DEFENSE PROCUREMENT REFORM AS A COUNTERTERRORISM STRATEGY IN NIGERIA Except from their Report: “Aside from the evident waste, the kleptocratic capture of the defence sector has had serious consequences for the security of Nigerians. Despite sharp increases in ad hoc defence spending between 2011 and 2015, operations in the northeast have remained stubbornly under- resourced, with multiple reports of front line operations hampered by equipment, materiel, and pay shortages, particularly in 2013 and 2014. 30 These shortages undoubtedly cost lives. Military sources have privately blamed the suspected deaths of 83 soldiers in an October 2016 Boko Haram ambush, directly on equipment shortfalls and low morale resulting from an uptick in corruption among Army leaders.31 During the height of the conflict, corrupt senior officers withheld ammunition and fuel from front-line soldiers, leaving them with no alternative other than to flee when attacked. In November 2014, for example, soldiers hastily fled as Boko Haram stormed the town of Maiha in northern Adamawa State. “The fleeing soldiers asked us to give them our clothes so that they can camouflage and escape from the area safely as some of them discarded their weapons in the bush”, recounted one eyewitness.32 In an early 2015 BBC interview, a soldier anonymously recounted how his superiors refused to resupply frontline troops, leaving soldiers to face heavily armed Boko Haram fighters with only AK-47s and dilapidated armoured vehicles now four decades old.33 In addition to the rapid surrender of weapons and vehicles in the heat of battle, corruption means the military’s longstanding failure to budget and train for the effective maintenance and repair of equipment, necessitating the frequent purchase of new materiel, and so creating further new opportunities for procurement-related fraud. In a December 2015 court martial, 66 soldiers on trial for mutiny had their death sentences commuted after the court heard that the soldiers had pleaded to be given weapons and equipment to combat the insurgency, but the funds had been stolen. 34” Please make sure to read the full report in the link below. 1. ti-defence.org/wp-content/upl… 2. I have also pulled Nigeria’s annual BUDGETED spending documented by SIPRI - Stockholm International Peace Research Institute from 2010 to 2024. Stockholm International Peace Research Institute- Why SIPRI’s Data Matters: •SIPRI’s Military Expenditure Database is used by: •The World Bank (WDI dataset on “Military expenditure, current USD”) •The United Nations, IMF, OECD, and many think tanks. Corruption Kills. It is killing our country and people. ✍🏾✍🏾✍🏾

The only reason Mazi Nnamdi kanu is in Sokoto today is because he refused to betray Ndigbo, let that sink. He sacrificed his mother, his father, his comfort and his freedom to save Ndigbo from fulani jihadists enslavement. A rare personality. Ndigbo will not abandon Ohamadike.
