An insider just told me that NDC registration is just 34k so far as at this morning . So do not be deceived with figures they are brandishing.

First person in history to play chess under third mainland bridge 😎

“Remove immunity. Monitor the powerful. Follow the money.” Back in 2007, President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua proposed a bold anti-corruption plan—scrap immunity for top officials and introduce independent monitors to track assets, bank accounts, and wealth of those in power. Nearly two decades later, his words still hit hard. Nigeria doesn’t lack ideas. It needs the will to act. — Yar’Adua (Sept. 2007)

What if Peter Obi wins and ends up being the same as the others before him?

this campaign of calumny against Tunde O is lazy at best. not everyone has the luxury of alignment. some people do work that cuts across divides - work that may collapse the moment it’s seen as partisan. in that position, neutrality is not cowardice; it’s a requirement for the work to survive and achieve its objectives. “but he has taken a side”. meanwhile, it’s a picture with the president of his country. an honorary ambassadorship from his state. opportunity to speak with young people (his primary target) at an event - organized by the president’s son. guess who else has a picture with the president. guess who else is a sports ambassador for Ogun state. guess who else was invited to speak at that event (Tunde didn’t even attend) that people are not dragging. what are we doing? if you’re doing impactful work, people across political divides will court you. people across the world will court you. you will be in rooms with people you like and those you loathe. and for the sake of the work, you will chest it. because the work is bigger than your personal politics. and the idea that he needs Nigeria to stay bad so he can have more slum kids is … laughable. his work isn’t about preserving slums. it’s about developing people - through chess - discipline, how they think, opportunity, etc. that doesn’t disappear if things improve. and no matter who the president is, Nigeria will never run out of underserved communities. infact, the world will never run out of it. you’re forcing politics on something that isn’t built for it. and judging a constraint you don’t carry. if you think you’d do it differently, oya do it. build something impactful, take your stance, and sustain it. until then, it’s just noise. lazy noise. 🙂‍↔️
