Your great-grandmothers were suffering in their marriages. Your grandmothers were suffering in their marriages. Your mothers were suffering in their marriages. You are also suffering in your marriages. Lesbians are suffering in marriage as well. Stay-at-home wives are suffering in their marriages. Working women are also suffering in their marriages. Women with rich husbands are suffering in their marriages Women married to poor men are also suffering in their marriages. This is no longer a man’s problem. This is a you problem. Nothing can be done about it. You are unhappy by nature, and neither heterosexual nor homosexual relationships can fix that. Leave men alone.

Can you all see how Social media is trying so hard to promote female-on-male abuse, both physical and verbal, as absolutely nothing, or worse, as something "cute." You will scroll down your timeline and watch those couple loyalty test videos where the woman violently pounces on the man, or those normal comedy skits where the woman is literally getting physical with him. And instead of calling it what it is, the entire comment section is just kikiing and trying to label her unhinged behavior as cute and feisty. It exposes a very brutal truth: the world does not actually hate physical confrontation and violence. Society only cares when violence is done to animals, women, and children. But the exact second a man is the victim of physical and verbal abuse, everyone is completely okay with it and turns his trauma into a viral meme.

And a bunch of oloriburuku white people are discussing this because? This is exactly how they started pushing the narrative that black people don’t feel pain which they used to justify slavery and using black people as literal lab rats and the bloody psychopathic Nigerians, an entire nation of cluster B personalities who have literally morphed into soulless ghouls because of repeated traumatic events are celebrating it like it’s some positive thing. Such a reckless and stupid thing to be saying about a nation where barely anybody is sane and lots of people are dealing with cptsd. Very soon they will use it as justification for further mistreatment.

The basic issue with P.O. is the same issue I had until 2024 - he refuses to acknowledge that his platform is fundamentally anti-imperial. The idea of moving Africa's largest population "from consumption to production" is a fundamentally anti-imperialism idea. The existence of Nigeria as a consumer-import-dependent, natural resource exporter that spends resource export revenues on imported finished goods without having an industrial base to manufacture its own, is not an accident of "poor leadership" - it is the direct goal of neo-colonialism. When instead of manufacturing goods, Nigeria instead haemorrhages its natural resources and human talent, and only receives some insufficient USD resource rents in return, this ensured that Nigeria and its African contemporaries remain artificially poor, while people who live in places where for 6 months every year, the ground freezes solid and daily sunshine is only 5 hours, remain artificially wealthy. That is the core of the Euro-American imperial system. The military branch of this imperial system is called NATO. The governance/policy arms are called IMF/World Bank. The economic arm is called WTO. The academic/social arms are the Foundations, NGOs, policy research institutes and universities. This is what P.O. is actually up against. So if P.O. says he wants to "move Nigeria from consumption to production", it is the same thing as declaring war on Europe, its sugar daddy in Washington, and its spiritual leader in Tel-Aviv. And if you're going to do that, you need to be fully locked in, and you need to be prepared to lose everything of yours that is under the empire's control. I finally realised this in June 2024, and that's why I quit my £40,000/year project management job in Newcastle, packed up all my shit, withdrew all my money, gave up my 5-year UK visa, and bought a 1-way ticket back to Accra. As I am now, if and when I end up in a position of power, there is zero leverage that any white man anywhere on earth can use to blackmail me into maintaining this imperial system. I don't have property in their countries. I don't have money in their banking systems. I don't have children in their schools and universities. The most they can do is ban me from their social media. P.O. does not want to do the same. His children are comfortable and integrated pseudo-westerners. He has property in the UK. He has money in their banks. He enjoys that regular suite at the Hilton Paddington too much. He's trying to run on a revolutionary, anti-imperialist platform while pretending that he is a friend of the Western world who doesn't want to pick a fight with them. The problem with this is that oyibo people don't play those games. These people murdered Patrice Lumumba over a speech. You might not see yourself as their enemy, but they DEFINITELY know on what side their bread is buttered, and they know that a Nigeria where ships berth everyday, offload consumer goods, and sail away only with natural resources or empty, is a Nigeria that remains strategically poor and profitable to their empire. They KNOW that a Nigeria under Peter Obi where education and health are properly funded, where Chinese-inspired industrial policy is enacted, where railways and steel production move to the top of national priority, and where those ships eventually start sailing from Nigeria laden with manufactured goods for export to the world, is the Nigeria that will destroy their entire parasitic way of life. And I'm sure P.O. knows this too, but he's invested in pretending that he can play both sides, the same way Patrice Lumumba wasted valuable time doing "I am not a Communist" and trying to play nice with the same people until they killed his ass, dissolved him in sulphuric acid, and kept his gold tooth as a souvenir. That's why I've moved on from the Obidient thing. Both he and his supporters don't know what they want and I'm exhausted. Even his Bible says "How long will you be limping between two opinions?"

See the comments and see how bad our mentality is as Nigerians. A large part of people are saying he should have just taken the money and kept mute, which means that is what they would have done. Now, tell me how those same people will hold positions and not be corrupted. It’s sad mahn! Our moral compass becomes non existent once money is introduced.

An AMERICAN FRAUD SCHEME scamming its own citizens To my fellow Nigerians, As you make money, Please invest in MEDIA. We Need to change how we are perceived globally. This so called fraud scheme has 4 Americans in it 🇺🇸 Aruan Drake, 37, Atlanta, Georgia 🇺🇸 Peter Reed, 35, Oak Forest, Illinois 🇺🇸 Shaquille I. Jackson, 33, Chicago, Illinois 🇺🇸 Lon Goodman, Chicago area, owner of New Dolton Currency Exchange, laundered ~$50M​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ The rest are also American citizens with Nigerian parents. 🇳🇬🇺🇸 Ayobami Osas Christopher, aka “Lovely Man”, 30, Lawrenceville, Georgia 🇳🇬🇺🇸 Ayorinde Emmanuel Adebayo, 35, Olympia Fields, Illinois 🇳🇬🇺🇸 Olabode Bankole, 37, Loganville, Georgia 🇳🇬🇺🇸 Chukwuemeka Evulukwu, 35, Atlanta, Georgia 🇳🇬🇺🇸 Kingsley Owusu, 37, Chicago, Illinois 🇳🇬🇺🇸 Oluwafemi Michael Awoyemi, 40, Romeoville, Illinois​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ 11 on that list were not named probably because of their nationality and the backlash. The only core Nigerians on that list are 4 people, Which I refuse to mention. So technically. This is an AMERICAN FRAUD SCHEME targeting its own citizens You see how they use the media to always push narratives. Nigeria does not have the financial infrastructure to move 215 million dollar. Don’t let anyone gaslight you. THIS IS AN AMERICAN THING.

🇺🇸U.S through IMF forced Buhari to devalue the Naira so that Nigeria's Crude Oil, Gold, LNG, lithium and other minerals could go to them for close to free n they still slap Tarrif on top while you can't afford a used/accident car from the U.S But hey! We must open our mines to 🇺🇸American corporations n reintegrate repentant Boko Haram cos "China bad"🤡

Women don't realize there's a special way a man feels knowing that her woman is in the kitchen cooking for her while he's waiting for that delicious food. Somehow, the sense of love and admiration in him continues to bloom just because of that simple thing. It's the same way a woman tends to love and respect her man further when he consistently provides for her and the family, doing things that make them happy. If you're one of those always saying marriage should be based on mutual understanding and support. This right here is exactly is what mutual understanding is: the wife and the husband need to take charge of their specific “natural” duties without thinking, "Why can't he/she also do it, too?" It's just silly when a woman is saying: Why can't a man also cook? Imagine a man saying: Why can't a woman also provide for the family? - These roles can overlap, yes. - A man can temporarily stand in for the woman and cook when necessary, yes. - A woman, can sometimes fund some stuff (not even to exactly provide) when the situation calls for it, yes. - But all these should be cases brought about by certain situations, and not to be seen as though it's the norm. Let's be wise.

Look how Hitler perfectly describes that a parliamentary system is easily corruptible and preferred by Jews. Because they can put idiots in office, control them with money, then a whole political party can be blamed when the policies suck. (Suck for the nation but benefit the Jewish elite) Just like in America today…

Forbidden history fact of the day: Germany invaded Danzig, Poland in 1939 because they were intentionally forced to do so, in order to save the ethnic Germans still living there from being slaughtered by the Bolsheviks (✡️) in the most horrific ways imaginable. (Raping German women then chopping their breasts off, nailing children to barn doors, all the classics from the Bolshevik Revolution/Holodomor) Between August 10, 1939 and September 6, 1939, the Bolsheviks killed 56,000 German Nationals in the Danzig corridor. Hitler had already done "the right thing" by protesting in writing to the League of Nations (literally dozens of times), to no avail. He and the Germans were left with no choice but to go in and stop the massacres and persecutions on Danzig's ethnic Germans themselves. TLDR: After WW1 and the Treaty of Versailles, Germany was split into two with Poland in between. Atrocities were happening in that small German area, so after numerous attempts to find a political solution, the National Socialists said "Fuck it" and went in to save their people with force.

This cost them about $1 trillion. The truth is, you cannot build systems like this exclusively on the logic of profit. You cannot expect to break even in 20 or 30 years. Projects of this scale are built because the government decides they must exist to serve the people. And this is a problem with systems that are strictly, or overwhelmingly, capitalist. If you leave every problem in your society to the spontaneity of the market, some challenges are so large and so unprofitable that you will never have sufficient incentive to solve them.

The West isn't a model for anything! Not governance Not the rule of law Not family values Not social ethics Not religion

If you are from Anglophone Africa and someone in your family was conscripted by British colonial authorities to fight in southeast Asia during WW2, and you're familiar with the story and willing to speak about it on air, please get in touch urgently. The more the merrier.

Ukraine is literally kidnapping citizens n forcing them into the army Why is Human Rights Watch no concerned about that??!!

AOT will forever be goated, peak reference if you ask me

The best thing you can do for yourself as a Nigerian is to use that internet connection of yours while you still can, and follow/read/watch information from a wide variety of sources from all over the world. Your Nigerian media is a Europe-US information cage. When I say "Nigerian media", I'm not just talking about news platforms. I mean your popular social media bloggers. Your big content aggregators. Your online discussion and image boards. Everything is bought and paid for, and the money is always European or American. Do yourself a favour and unplug. Look for news, web content, TV series, movies and discussion forums from Asia, Latin America and other parts of Africa. Watch Brazilian TV shows. Watch Chinese documentaries. Watch Vietnamese movies. Follow social media content creators from Indonesia and Russia. Lurk on Pakistani message boards. Gain a wider picture of the world while you still have access to a relatively open internet that allows you to do so. It's the best thing you can do for yourself.

World Bank told Nigeria to reopen fuel imports because Dangote’s fuel was 12% more expensive than imports. Dangote called it flawed. World Bank quietly deleted the whole report from their website. Meanwhile Europe is buying refined fuel from the same Dangote refinery because Middle East supply got disrupted. The same Europe that used to sell Nigeria its own crude back as petrol. You can’t make this up. An African refinery finally works at scale and the first recommendation is not invest more, not expand capacity. It’s bring back imports. When Africa consumes nobody says a word. When Africa refines and competes suddenly it’s a problem.

My father's best friend was a man called Uncle Bayo who disappeared from our lives without explanation. I was 12 the last time I saw him. He came to our flat in Gbagada, argued with my father in the bedroom for an hour, and walked out without saying goodbye to me. My father never spoke his name again. Neither did my mother. Uncle Bayo became a silence with a shape. Twenty-six years passed. I was in Philadelphia for a conference. A networking dinner at a hotel downtown. Across the room, a man about my father's age caught my eye and held it too long. He approached me during dessert and said my surname like it was a question he already knew the answer to. We sat in the hotel lobby until 2am. He told me the story my father never did. They had started a construction company together in the early 90s. It had failed because of a contract dispute with a senator. The senator had paid only half the money and refused the rest. The debt had crushed them. Uncle Bayo had blamed my father for trusting the senator. My father had blamed Uncle Bayo for not reading the fine print. The friendship had shattered. Two men who had been closer than brothers had become strangers over something neither of them could control. Uncle Bayo had moved to America after the falling out. He had built a new life, a new business, a small contracting firm in West Philly. He had married a Ghanaian woman and had two daughters. He had never returned to Nigeria. He had never called my father. He had assumed the silence was mutual. I asked why he approached me now. He said he recognised my face because I looked like my father at 30. He said he had been waiting for decades to see that face again, to explain something that was never about betrayal. He said the argument had been about shame, not money. Both men had felt they failed each other. Neither had known how to say it. I called my father from the hotel room. It was 3am in Lagos. He answered on the second ring, voice thick with sleep and alarm. I told him who I was sitting with. The line went quiet. Then my father did something I had never heard him do. He cried. Not softly. The kind of crying that comes from a place words cannot reach. Uncle Bayo flew to Lagos 3 months later. They met at the same flat in Gbagada. They sat in the same living room where the argument had happened. They didn't re-litigate the past. They just sat together, two old men with white hair and matching hypertension medication, and let the silence heal. My father died last year. Uncle Bayo spoke at the funeral. He said the greatest thief in life is not money or failure. It is the belief that there is always more time. Call them. The debt is not theirs. It is yours.

I have tweeted this a few times, and I will tweet it again. Firstly, we cannot say they didn’t build or buy a house for their fathers just because it wasn’t posted online. Secondly, if they didn’t, there must be a story behind it. Lastly, and most importantly, we men underestimate the importance of bonding, showing up, and emotionally supporting our kids. We act like these things aren’t as important as providing. Many men don’t even try at all. no bond, no emotional support, and just providing. Do you know why many men are quick to disown their kids? It’s because there is no bond. We see it online all the time: a video of kids making mistakes, and men commenting, “If any of my kids try this, I will disown them.” That easy? The first thing that comes to your mind is to disown them? I changed so many diapers, soothed their sickness, and endured every tantrum, and you just want me to disown my kids? Many men see kids as people they only need to provide for. If all you do is provide, while the mother does the showing up, emotional support, and bonding, then when the kids grow up and it’s time to give back, they will do the same. Not because they are bad kids, but because that’s what they learned. They will celebrate their mother more. They will talk to her more. Meanwhile, you as the father who only provided, will only receive financial gestures and gifts. You will be taken care of. They will like post their mom and rarely post you. Ask people who openly celebrate their dads if all he did was provide. But if you never celebrated them when they were young, why should they celebrate you? You can’t expect them to miraculously create a bond you never built. If you’re lucky, your kids may unlearn that pattern and try to build a relationship with you, but it will be difficult, because they were raised with, “As a father, it’s my way or the highway.” I work 12 to 16 hours sometimes, and my daughter has a game right after that. I get tired, really tired, but I still show up. And many times, when I get there, the smile that lights up her face when she spots me in the crowd is priceless. I love seeing that. Do you think I always have the strength to go to parks, birthday parties, pools, and watch her play sports? Sometimes I want to rest, but I still try. And whenever I can’t make it, I communicate that with her. I don’t just fail to show up. I explain and give her reasons. So, my brothers, providing for your family and being emotionally present aren’t mutually exclusive. Try. Otherwise, when you are down, your kids won’t be beside you on your deathbed, but they will make sure you d*e comfortably.

If you have a child under the age of 5years old, pls give them no phones, no tabs, no iPads, no laptops. Basically no screens. Scientists have found a relationship between screen exposure and brain damage in kids under 5years old. Pls share this video🙏🏿
