Tinubu must go!

@TheSerahIbrahim @themangerajake @TheAjakeManger Best choice ever.

I was amongst the people to take a stand for Peter Obi late. The first person who told me about him was @themangerajake @TheAjakeManger I did my own research, studied, compared, and it became clear that in terms of competence and capacity, no one came close. This was in 2022 It’s 2026 and I am even more proud on that support that nobody beats his capacity and competence. For me and millions of others, it is Peter Obi or Nothing.

The Nigerian president’s visit to the UK was his latest high-profile foreign policy moment on the world stage. But Tinubu’s diplomatic engagements have not produced concrete benefits for ordinary Nigerians. chathamhouse.org/2026/03/tinubu…

@grok @ikpeni_enaks Lol 🤣. Grok is on kolos🤣 .

@ikpeni_enaks Haha, classic notification fail. Next time, slide into their DMs with "This story 👀" – problem solved. Which one was it? Spill the plot twist.

In Ethiopia, there is a man who feeds wild hyenas. Meet ABBAS. He lives in the city of Harar, where hyenas once caused serious problems for the village. Years ago, villagers often fought these animals to protect themselves and their livestock. But Abbas’s father tried something different. Instead of fighting the hyenas, he started feeding them. Night after night, the animals slowly began to trust him. Today, Abbas continues that tradition. Every evening, he brings food and waits for the hyenas to arrive. Over time, the relationship changed. The hyenas stopped attacking the village and now live peacefully nearby. Today, people from around the world come to Harar to see this unusual friendship. Because sometimes, respect can change the relationship between humans and animals. ©️ Nas Daily/fb #wildlife #wildanimals #nature Urhobo/ Isoko/ Bright/ AFCON

💡 DID YOU KNOW? The Igbo are one of the most represented ethnic groups in the history of the transatlantic slave trade. Scholars estimate that between 1.5 and 2 million Igbo people were shipped across the Atlantic between the 16th and 19th centuries, making them one of the largest single groups forcibly transported to the Americas. Their presence shaped entire cultures. In Jamaica, the word "Eboe" was commonly used for Igbo enslaved people. In Barbados, Igbo cultural traits were so dominant that observers documented them separately from other Africans. In Virginia, the Igbo were so concentrated that certain counties had distinct Igbo-influenced naming patterns and customs. They did not disappear. They left fingerprints on an entire hemisphere. 🖤

Name one thing from the South East that the whole world uses, knows, or has been influenced by but never gives us credit for. We'll start: Chinua Achebe rewrote how the entire world tells the African story. Your turn. 👇🏾 🖤

Public resources should be sacred. The same way it’s an abomination to steal in a church or mosque. Nobody who steals public resources ends well. And even when they die their children sell them off or devour them. This should be taught every morning in all our schools. Corruption can be fixed in classrooms for the coming generations.

🚗 BUILT IN THE EAST Innoson just named their new pickup truck the Ijele. The Ijele is the greatest masquerade in Igbo tradition. Grand, commanding, built to fill every space it enters. The IVM G1949 Ijele is a 5-seater double cabin 4WD pickup. Made in Nnewi. Made for everywhere. When your culture is so rich that even your cars carry the ancestors with them. 🛻🖤

@heritagenewsnet Never heard of her

📜 The Buried Story. She was born in Enugu-Ezike around 1880, the daughter of a palm wine tapper. As a teenager her father consulted a spiritualist about a series of family misfortunes and was told his daughter must be given in marriage to a goddess as punishment for his sins. She ran. She fled to Igalaland where she survived by any means necessary, learned to speak Igala, Nupe and Pidgin English, built a trading business in palm oil and horses and worked her way into the circle of the Attah of Igala, the most powerful traditional ruler in the region. By the time the British arrived in northern Igboland she was the only person in Enugu-Ezike who could speak to them directly. She used that to her advantage. She guided British forces into her hometown, navigated their politics and their egos with surgical precision and watched as they installed her first as village headman, then as Warrant Chief. No woman in all of colonial Nigeria had ever held either title. She held both simultaneously. Then she became king. With the backing of the British colonial government and the Attah of Igala, Ahebi Ugbabe was installed as Eze of Enugu-Ezike. The only female king in the history of colonial Nigeria. She held court. She took wives. She collected tribute. She named children after herself. The British District Officer wrote in his own reports that she was a lady of influence and power, intelligent and quiet, and when she spoke it was always to the point. But power has limits even for the most extraordinary people. When she attempted to introduce her own masquerade, a spiritual institution strictly reserved for initiated men, the male elders of Enugu-Ezike revolted. They seized her mask publicly. She took the matter to the colonial courts. The British, suddenly sensing that supporting her further would destabilise the entire community, withdrew their backing. She never recovered her full authority. Before she died in 1948 she performed her own burial rites while still alive. She did not trust that her community would give her a befitting send-off. Her living funeral included gunfire, animal sacrifice and music of remembrance. She organised it herself. She was buried according to the customs reserved for men. Today she is worshipped as a goddess in her mother's hometown. There is an Ahebi Ugbabe Road and an Ahebi Ugbabe Primary School in Enugu-Ezike. Her name appears in songs and proverbs that Enugu-Ezike children still hear today. Most of Nigeria has never heard of her. 🖤 Drop your thoughts below. 👇🏾

@MgbadikeAtuegwu @_Samcleave Which agama? Na wall gecko!

@_Samcleave Godzilla get sense pass you, you should answer Agama

First Nigerian movie to win Oscar? Oscar where? Oscar bob? All this argument and you have only submitted that Gele, an elaborate head tie of the Yoruba people, is just the “hand fan” style (a 2010s Gele style) when it’s your ichafu that actually fits that

Spotlight on the sunshine herself. They say a name can be a prophecy, and Sunshine Rosman is living up to hers. From her debut in Lunch Time Heroes to the global stage of Netflix is a testament to the "Igbo Spirit" of excellence.

When we were in secondary school everybody knew that all locally made pistols are made in Awka. We have everything here when it comes to human capital and ingenuity. But unambitious government policies and lack of infrastructures etc kept us in one place. Don't listen to detractors, ugo chukwu tubelu Igbo, anya ụfụ ndị ọjọọ agaghị efichanụ ya.

I have argued strongly that a lion can never give birth to an antelope. It is impossible! There is a reason why Aba is known for craft and manufacturing. “Aba Made” is a powerful identity that reflects creativity, innovation, and craftsmanship. It has deep historical roots. There is also a reason why Onitsha is known for trade, it too, has a strong historical context. Craftsmanship is mostly inherent skill; you can’t simply claim it with words. Show your work. No be cho cho cho! You are claiming that your ancestors invented stuff, show us how. Why are you not doing it? They didn’t teach your parents? There is a reason why our people excel in automobile engineering, there is a story behind it. The first car built by a Black man in Africa was by an Igbo man. That level of audacity and ingenuity is still present today. Our cities are shaped by strong historical foundations that guide their development. Awka and Nkwerre are know for blacksmith, the relics are still there till tomorrow! The kind of city a people build reflects their level of imagination and creativity. So, if you want to know who owns or has the capacity to manufacture, look around you and see who is actually doing the work today. Do you have “Aba made” equivalent? What do you produce? What craft are you specifically known for? If you want to know who built a city, or who has the capacity to build one, look around and see how many cities have been built by any group of people in Nigeria. If you cannot replicate what you claim your ancestors did or have the capacity to do, repeatedly and at scale, then perhaps it was never truly yours.

If a Nigerian had received the no bid, economic opportunities Mr. Gilbert Chagoury has received from the Government of Nigeria without doing any charitable work or listing his entities on the Nigerian stock exchange, Nigerians would have called him a greedy monopolist. But Chagoury na oyibo, so dem go just unlook. Patriotism goes beyond putting a flag on your bio.

A Nation Under Siege The nation is once again engulfed in grief and outrage following the horrific explosions in Maiduguri, Borno State, yesterday. These tragic events serve as a painful reminder of how far we have strayed from the fundamental duty of governance: the protection of lives and property. The fact that several innocent Nigerians can be killed in multiple coordinated attacks, with over a hundred others injured in vulnerable places like markets and near hospitals, highlights a troubling reality. The silence from our nation in response to such atrocities indicates a disturbing normalization of insecurity rather than a decisive confrontation with the issue. In light of recent attacks in Kwara, Nasarawa, Kogi, Plateau, Sokoto, Benue, and even within the Federal Capital Territory, the pattern of insecurity is deeply concerning. In some regions, such as Katsina, there are alarming reports of communities being coerced into paying a "Peace Tax" to armed groups just to avoid further attacks and ensure their survival. These moments test not only our security architecture but also the very essence of leadership. Such a grave national emergency requires immediate presence, attention, and action. It is crucial to cancel any planned trips to visit affected communities in favor of prioritizing efforts to safeguard lives. During this time of grief, my thoughts and prayers are with the families who have lost loved ones, as well as those who are injured and fighting to recover. May God grant eternal rest to the departed, comfort the bereaved, and provide strength and healing to all affected. We cannot continue down this path. Our nation must rise to protect its citizens with urgency, responsibility, and compassion. A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
