As a Yoruba Christian, I would rather marry a Yoruba Muslim than an Igbo Christian.
Usman Danfodio brought radical Islam to the North. He accused the Hausa Muslim kings of fake Islam, dethroned them, seized their power, all in the name of "purifying" the faith. It was never just religion. It was a political jihad for control.

A few hours after her ex-husband emotionally disclosed on a podcast that she left him to marry another man in the United States, Mayowa posted a video of herself dancing, showing off her dance moves.
I met with Adetokunbo Ogunnoiki @tokunboxyz , a young graduate of mathematics from the University of Ibadan, and his startup partner Ademola Gbadero, after his viral post on X caught my attention. They proposed a tech platform that uses geo mapping to help Lagosians locate clean and available public toilets in real time, with features like cleanliness ratings, walking directions, and estimated arrival times. They have already deployed a similar solution on their university campus with success. I invited them in, listened to their presentation alongside the Special Adviser to the Governor on e-GIS, Dr. Olajide Babatunde, and the Director of Sanitation Services, Dr. Hassan Sanuth. Fascinated by the idea and impressed by their depth of work, I approved the proposal on the spot and requested a comprehensive budget for the next meeting in a few days. This project will further bolster our drive for a cleaner Lagos under Governor @jidesanwoolu led administration. We welcome objective criticism that offers solutions, not outright condemnation, insults and curses. Governance is about collective solutions and empowering the next generation. #AGreaterLagosRising

It needs no studying. Anyone who supports, implicitly or explicitly, a government that killed our compatriots during End SARS, stole elections in 2023, and has now plunged Nigerians into extreme poverty while being unable to secure our lives and property, deserves to be hated.
