Peter Obi arrived in South Africa from Lagos in the early hours of Friday for a conference, but true to his belief in putting Nigeria and Nigerians first, he made time to meet with members of the Nigerian community to ask after their welfare in light of recent events. The meeting was productive, but also deeply revealing, as many Nigerians present shared that no government official had reached out to them, at least not in any official capacity. They expressed happiness at receiving Peter Obi and were touched that, despite the stress and fatigue of a long flight, he chose to stop by and engage with them before even getting some rest. This is one thing that has been missing for far too long. The feeling of belonging to a country where citizens feel seen, valued, and cared for by their leaders, regardless of where they are in the world. While we continue to ask citizens to be patriotic towards their country, the country itself must also show patriotism towards its people. This is the kind of Nigeria Peter Obi hopes to restore. A nation where the people feel loved by their country, and in return, truly love it back. #NigeriaWillBeOk

I have zero interest in Nigeria politics. That space is filled with lots of deeply corrupt individuals. It’s not inline with my life mission. For personal principles, I don’t engage in any form of government contracts and don’t accept gifts from any politician. I always want to be in the side of truth and press for our society to be better. My desire is to see South East develop to be the greatest workforce in Africa which should positively influence the development/civilization of Nigeria and the rest of Africa.

Governor Soludo is complacent with education in Anambra. Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu is in a total mess and corruption is at its peak there but he is not interested. No electricity in the school for several years. Tansian University is in crisis currently. He is a professor.

Open Apology Letter to the Obidient Movement My Dear Obidient Family, I come before you today with a heavy heart, deep humility, and no excuses. Some time ago, in a moment of frustration and immaturity, I wrote and released a resignation letter as Director of Mobilization. In that letter, I allowed deep frustration & personal emotions to cloud my judgment. I made statements that subtly and unnecessarily dragged Peter Obi, a man I still respect for his vision, integrity, and sacrifice for this nation. That was wrong. It was childish, and beneath the standard I should have upheld, especially as someone who once held a leadership position in this movement. I take full responsibility. No one forced me to write it. No one edited it. It came from me, and it was a mistake. I deleted the letter afterwards, but I know deletion does not erase the damage, the disappointment, or the loss of trust many of you felt. I understand why some of you no longer respect me the way you once did. You had every right to feel let down. To Peter Obi himself (fondly called PO): Sir, I am sincerely sorry. My words were not a true reflection of the values of sacrifice, accountability, and constructive criticism that you preach. I failed in that moment. To every single Obidient, the ones who stayed grinding, the ones who defended the vision even when it was tough, the ones who felt betrayed by my actions, I am deeply sorry. You are the real heroes of this movement. Many of you are young people full of hope and fire for a better Nigeria. You didn’t deserve to see internal cracks turned into public drama. I let you down. I am not writing this because I want something or a position in the movement as I’m enjoying private life. I am writing it because it is the right thing to do. Leadership is not only about when the road is sweet and smooth; it is also about owning up when you mess up. I own this fully. I am committed to rebuilding trust through consistent actions, not just words. But I also know trust is not demanded, it is earned back slowly, if at all. Thank you for reading this. Whether you accept my apology or not, I respect your feelings and your right to hold me accountable. The love I have for a better Nigeria has not changed. You all know me. My respect for the Obidient spirit remains. I am sorry truly. With humility and hope for forgiveness, Your brother in this struggle, Morris Monye. Oya come let’s hug. 😊

Instead of declaring a strike action or going on protest at a minimum over the kidnap of their colleagues, the clowns leading the Nigeria Union of Teachers in Oyo State are embarking on a 3-day fasting and prayers. They are even making silly excuses for the government. The same government that has failed to protect life and property? We have a lot of sick people in this country.

This is an indictment of democracy. You saw people signing an impeachment, you didn't ask the cause of the impeachment, you signed because you believed it was from the president. The president then called, and you signed again. So the president remote you people's brains and not the people you serve. This isn't democracy. This is an autocracy being faked as a democracy.

All my life, I've only written exams in two languages - English and Yoruba. I have just stepped out of an exam hall where I had to write it's entirety in Italian. Pass rate for Indigenous Italians is 58%. 8 out of 10 immigrants fail. I wrote on first trial and made 100%.

Dear Frank Edoho, this is a financial and life advisory from someone who has been watching. First, the school fees, the properties, the years of provision, the emotional labour, all of that is gone and it is not coming back, mourn it for exactly 30 days, after that it becomes a tuition fee for the most expensive masterclass in human character assessment you will ever attend, file it under education and move forward. Second, you are 57 years old, still handsome, still distinguished, still employed, still relevant, still the man who made “is that your final answer” a cultural moment in Nigerian television history. The woman who left that did not leave because you were not enough, she left because some people confuse a blessing for an entitlement, that is her problem now, not yours. Third, your next investment will not be in a woman who needs building, you have already built two complete human beings from scratch with your resources, your time, and your emotional capacity. Going forward you are only investing in something that already has equity, no fixer upper projects or rehabilitation contracts, you are not NNPC and you cannot afford another turnaround maintenance scam. Fourth, separate your finances permanently and structurally, whatever you own going forward carries your name only until a relationship has proven itself over years not months, love is beautiful but a joint account requires the same due diligence as a business partnership….which it literally is. Fifth, the woman making noise publicly right now naming people and building a victim narrative is doing you a favour you have not recognised yet. She is showing everyone watching exactly who she is without you having to say a single word, your silence is not weakness Frank, your silence is evidence, let it speak. Sixth, stop falling in love with potential, you are a television professional, you understand production, you know the difference between a pilot episode and a complete series, stop funding pilots that never make it to season two. Now the most important advice of all. Come back to television, but not with a quiz show this time, Nigeria has moved past multiple choice questions, we are living in an era of N800 billion missing from FAAC, senators buying tax clearance like recharge cards, a Budget Office that has gone silent on the biggest budget in history, and a government that travels the world giving speeches about transparency while accountability stays at home. Come back with a current affairs programme, sharp, structured, uncomfortable, the kind of show where powerful people sweat under studio lights and ordinary Nigerians get the questions actually answered, hosted by a man who has already survived two public storms with his dignity completely intact, which means nobody can threaten him, blackmail him, or buy him with a land allocation. Nigeria needs a broadcaster who has nothing left to lose and everything to say, and after what you have been through Frank, that man is you. The show writes itself, the audience is already waiting, and this time when you ask the question, we will not be thinking about the money. We will be thinking about the answer. Is that your final answer Frank? Make it count this time.

The problem started when I said "e choke" in a meeting. My colleague Linda from accounting paused mid-slide. She said, Is everything okay with your throat? I said, No, Linda, it means the numbers are impressive. She wrote that down. She literally wrote it down. Three days later she told our boss the quarterly projections were choking her. HR got involved. I work in Toronto, in a glass office where the only other Nigerian is a man named Tunde who has completely assimilated. The kind who pronounces "schedule" like he invented the language. He avoids me in the breakroom because I remind him of jollof rice and his mother's expectations. So I suffer alone. Last month I told a project manager that the deadline was giving me wahala. He emailed my supervisor asking if wahala was a vendor we needed to loop in. I now have a meeting on Friday about clarifying communication styles. The worst was when I said "abeg" to an intern. She thought it was a new productivity tool. She searched the internal software catalogue. By Tuesday, IT had opened a ticket. I tried explaining slangs to my coworkers once. Big mistake. Now every Monday morning, Kevin from sales greets me with "How far?" but he says it like "How far, my good man?" and waits for a response as if I am a foreign exchange student he is sponsoring. Linda has started saying "e choke" whenever she completes a spreadsheet. She does finger quotes around it. She has made a PowerPoint slide titled "Nigerian Business Expressions for Cross-Cultural Synergy." I sat Tunde down last week. I said, Tunde, you need to help me. They've weaponized our entire lexicon. He adjusted his cardigan. He said, I'm sorry, I don't really speak it anymore. I said, You were born in Owerri. He said, That was a long time ago. He stirred his green tea. No sugar. No milk. Just assimilation and regret. Yesterday I overheard my boss on a client call. She said the deal was giving her gbe body. I had told her "gbe body" means being alert. She now uses it to mean proactive. The client loved it. They want it in the brochure. I have created a monster. The office Christmas party is next week and Kevin told me he is planning to say "shey you dey whine me" during his toast. He has been practising pronunciation with a YouTube video titled "Speak Nigerian in 5 Minutes." I will not be attending. Every diaspora office has one person fighting for their slangs and one Tunde drinking green tea pretending he cannot remember the taste of chin chin.

Yesterday was an evening of celebration as we honoured His Royal Majesty, Igwe Nnaemeka Alfred Achebe, the Obi of Onitsha (Agbogidi) CFR, on his 85th birthday at the Michael Okpara Auditorium, Umuahia. We gathered to celebrate a man of excellence, a gentleman of grace, wisdom, and selflessness. Agbogidi is a blessed man whose educational journey is rare and remarkable, having studied at Stanford University and Columbia University for his first and second degrees respectively. He has also built a flourishing career in the private sector and distinguished himself as a business leader and captain of industry in Nigeria. I first met him years ago in Ikoyi, and since then he has been my adopted dad. Everyone needs someone they look up to in life. When I decided to run for public office, his endorsement, though not easily won, made all the difference and we are here now. There was no better place to celebrate him than Umuahia even though he's from Onitsha, a reminder that we are one and the same people. This is the Abia we are building: united, dignified, inclusive, and forward-looking. Aba, our great city, also reflects that cosmopolitan spirit where people from all corners of Nigeria converge. Agbogidi truly deserves this honour. His life is a testament that when you live well, you will be celebrated. This is the legacy we must hand down to our young people: to embrace hardwork, diligence, and values that endure. Special thanks to Pastor Chinedu Ezekwesili, his wife Dr. (Mrs.) Oby Ezekwesili, other men of God, and the traditional leaders from Onitsha and across the country, alongside our host traditional leaders, whose presence added depth and cultural richness to the celebration. Your Majesty, we thank God for your life and for all you have been to ndị Onitsha, the Southeast, Nigeria, Africa, and the world. May God continue to bless you with wisdom, longevity, and good health. Happy 85th birthday, Agbogidi! 🎉🎂👑

@aleeygiwa They will be found and released as "repentant". The politicians will sew uniform for them and some of our security officials will say they are Nigerians and should be reintegrated into the society. I feel sorry for the men we lost but the policy makers favour the enemy

They left to train. They never returned home. On May 8, 2026, at 1:15 AM, terrorists attacked the Nigerian Army Special Forces School in Buni Yadi, Yobe State. They struck from several directions while officers were asleep. Seventeen Nigeria Police Force officers lost their lives. They were not on patrol or in the field, but training to become better at protecting you. These officers volunteered for advanced counter-terrorism training. They chose the harder and more dangerous path because they believed that becoming better defenders of peace was worth the risk. It cost them everything. Several brave Nigerian Army personnel also gave their lives while fighting off the attack. The Inspector General of Police, IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu called the fallen courageous patriots whose dedication to national security will always be remembered. CP Usman Kanfani Jibrin visited the school, stood with the survivors, honored those lost, and shared one message: Complete the training. Do it for those who no longer can. To the seventeen families who have received this devastating news: your loved ones died while preparing to protect Nigeria. That sacrifice means everything. Those responsible will be found, and justice will be served. We will not forget. We will not stop. We will not give up.
