Welcome to my Twitter space. I used to write sociopolitical commentary (a total waste of time btw). I could write multiple posts daily. Its simple..introduce the topic..smack down opposing views..then present my take and conclude. That's it..post done and the arguments will follow! But if I have to be published in a newspaper (a worthwhile venture) I take my time to research the topic..review the background..argue for and against it..analyse the different perspectives before stating my opinion/suggestions and conclusion. It's a skill I learnt in media studies and a better way of articulating my thoughts in a more comprehensible manner. However, I decided to move on to scalable writing..investing my resources in building digital communities for knowledge acquisition that will enhance the productivity of our teeming youths..I no longer fall for cheap dopamine and vacuous validation of uncritical minds..now I derive real enduring pleasure in reading stories from writers in our growing community..in seeing their enthusiasm as we chat during our Talkshops and in the vision I have for younger people be more productive by creating solutions that add value. The cmonionline essay competition was a baby step I took during the pandemic lockdown of 2020 to improve the waning literary culture in our society. Through repetitions and iterations we developed consistency in writing and we keep growing. Already a member of our community @Dee_Jemima has published a book and more will evolve into published authors at the end of our current "A Book In A Year" project. We will also evolve into digital creators..educators and multiple solution providers in various strata of the society as we acquire practicable digital skills through the various e-tivities in our schedule. It is a passion..it is a process and progress may appear slow now but with time I am certain the sky will be the beginning in this exciting learning journey. Join us! 👇🏿

An APC member sheds tears after his party, APC, reached a consensus & hand over the ticket to another person. He displays the form he bought. 🤣🤣

Notice that NATO allies are no longer talking about reopening the Strait of Hormuz to ensure Freedom of Navigation. During the height of this US-Iran war, there was no diplomatic missile they did not fire at Iran over the closure of the Strait in retaliation for US airstrikes. Even the UK Prime Minister was all over the news, posturing about a 40-nation coalition to force open the waterway. But as soon as the US blockaded the Strait and began targeting all vessels entering and leaving Iranian ports, they suddenly lost their voices. NATO allies are quiet not because they have lost interest in the Strait, as they are currently suffering an energy crisis much more severe than any other continent. Their silence is because the US blockade has changed the math. Reopening the Strait now would require one of two things: diplomatically forcing the US to end its blockade, which is politically impossible within the alliance, or joining the US in an illegal act of war. Again, both of these options are impossible for NATO. They are currently spirit-broken and defeated. They cannot even criticize the US publicly. Following Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s comments that the US was being humiliated by Iran and that the war was illegal, the Pentagon immediately announced the withdrawal of 5,000 troops from Germany. Also, recall that Germany had a Russian option: opening the tap on Nord Stream 2. This was a valve they could have used to exit the energy crisis if domestic political pressure became too great. But as soon as plans were in place, the empire physically destroyed the infrastructure. This ensured that Germany and the EU could not meddle in the economic war by seeking a separate peace or a cheaper energy alternative. This has created a captive market where European industry is forced to operate at a significant price disadvantage compared to American industry. It should be clear by now that Europe is no longer a partner to the US. It has been effectively subsidized and secured into submission.

Mr. Daniel, I don't have anything against you. You are a good man. No one blames you for trying to survive the current economic hardship; we are all feeling it. But there is a line between surviving and selling out. You have a choice: you can be remembered like Ajuri Ngelale, who carried himself with a quiet, professional steel and stayed focused on his employer’s defense, or you can become the next Femi Adesina, who alienated the public with insensitive rhetoric - "your land or your head." Take a cue from Ngelale; he understood that a spokesperson’s job is to defend the principal, not to engage in pointless social media bickering and "small talk." Power is a revolving door. The four years you thought would last forever are already almost gone, and the next (if it comes) will move even faster. Elevate your engagement, delegate the petty squabbles to your staff, and focus on the dignity of your office. Your legacy depends on it. Good luck and remain blessed.

Funny you. I once asked of your number to correct a lie you said about me on your fake news class, but on a second thought I decided to ignore you once I realized your propaganda outfit is a branch of peter Obi falsehood. And your lies were brought to my attention by one of my aid. How can I be a student of your inaccurate an often fake news analysis?. The problem with some of you guys who pretend to be apolitical, but your words and actions betray you is that i you guys (the Obidient) are living in a fools paradise

Ambivalence. Prevarication. Double-speak. Weak statement. You are leaving the ADC. Simple and short. Say that sir. No one will beat you. All these explanations, not necessary. Wetin concern church service with this matter? lol.
Peter Obi@PeterObi

Fellow Nigerians, good morning. I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you. Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry daily—the private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances. We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the people—a society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal. More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism. We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishness—a system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power. Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise. Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them. However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building. Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in one’s own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated. And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions. There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline? Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from. Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all. A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO
