Woke up to yet another heartbreaking tragedy that has completely drained my energy and made me speechless. The reports indicating that a number of students and staff have been abducted at St. Mary’s School, a Catholic institution located in Agwara Local Government Area in Niger State.
Thoughts and prayers are with the victims, their families and the entire community. I strongly hope that the authorities respond with urgency so that these innocent lives are rescued safely.
May this unfortunate incident push us closer to finding lasting solutions to our security challenges. Ameen!

I genuinely don’t know where all of this will eventually lead us as a nation. If the rising tensions and the constant reckless narrative are simply because of the combination of the individuals currently occupying the Presidency, then why can’t we just wait and channel our dissatisfaction through the ballot boxes in 2027?
We all clearly remember the events of the 2023 elections. Neither President Tinubu, his Deputy nor the APC built their campaign around religion. They did not tour mosques preaching religious fear. They did not weaponise faith for political gain. Instead, they focused on experiences and regional balance. But Peter Obi, the very candidate many of propagandists supported, went from church to church framing the election as a religious war and busy calling daddies to help him take the message to their congregations.
I genuinely thought that the Tinubu/Shettima ticket would be seen first and foremost as a Yoruba/Kanuri ticket, two ethnic groups coming together to represent national diversity, as people have been preaching that religion should never come before tribe. But now, because that narrative doesn’t fit the current agenda, suddenly everything is reduced to Muslim/Muslim, as their ethnic identities no longer matter.
If we genuinely care about this country, our politics must be guided by truth, not reckless narratives crafted to inflame sentiment. Nigeria deserves better.

This recent investigation by the BBC Global Disinformation Unit has exposed the IPOB’s Intersociety’s role in amplifying unverified ‘Christian Genocide’ claims in Nigeria. The investigation revealed how the Intersociety and allied Igbo ethnic advocacy groups propagated inflated figures and unverified narratives that have reverberated across international political and religious circles.
The report, titled “Are Christians Being Persecuted in Nigeria as Trump Claims?” scrutinises the origins and credibility of claims that over 125,000 Christians have been killed and 19,000 churches destroyed in Nigeria since 2009—figures widely cited by U.S. conservative media and politicians, including Senator @TedCruz, Congressman @RepRileyMoore and others.
When contacted by the BBC, Intersociety failed to provide itemised data or verifiable sources to substantiate its casualty claims. Instead, the organisation accused the BBC of being politically compromised.
The BBC’s findings suggest that Intersociety’s methodology lacks transparency and raises serious concerns about the intent behind its reporting.
Despite the absence of credible evidence, these claims gained traction in U.S. political discourse, culminating in President Donald Trump labelling Nigeria a “country of particular concern” and threatening military action over what he described as a “Christian genocide.”
Intersociety and similar groups have consistently framed violence in Nigeria as targeted jihadist attacks against Christians, often attributing blame to Fulani herders and Islamist militants.
However, independent conflict monitoring organisations such as the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED) report that violence in Nigeria is multifaceted, affecting communities across religious and ethnic lines without clear evidence of a systematic campaign against Christians alone.
The BBC notes that many of these advocacy groups are rooted in southeastern Nigeria, where ethnic and religious identity politics are deeply intertwined. Their narratives often reflect broader grievances about political marginalisation and perceived federal neglect, particularly among the Igbo population.
While Intersociety presents itself as a non-profit, non-government-funded organisation, its advocacy has centred mainly on Igbo Christian interests. It has also been a vocal supporter of Nnamdi Kanu and the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), framing government actions against the separatist group as religious and ethnic persecution.
The BBC’s investigation underscores the dangers of politicised and unverified data in conflict reporting. By framing complex intercommunal violence as a one-sided genocide, advocacy groups risk inflaming tensions, distorting international perceptions, and undermining efforts at reconciliation and peacebuilding.

Donald Trump says thousands of Christians are being killed in Nigeria by Islamist militants - where has he got the numbers from? The BBC has found that some of the data being relied on to come to this conclusion are difficult to verify. bbc.in/3Xb8jvU

"For God so loved the world"-John 3:16.
God does not love only Christians. Allah is not fond of only Muslims. Elohim does not have tenderness for only Jews.
God loves the world, including Christians, Muslims, Hebrews, adherents of other faiths and those without any religious affiliation.
The moment we begin to segregate, God is no longer part of the picture, because, as Peter said in Acts 10:34, "God shows no partiality."
Anyone who loves their neighbour as themselves is already like Christ, irrespective of the religion they profess.
I want Nigerian Muslims to know that Nigerian Christians love and care for them and that under the rain, and under the sun, we are brothers and sisters born from the womb of one indivisible mother, Nigeria.
May God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Idc. You shouldn’t date anyone who’s ever done this or has plans to do it.
There’s a high chance they’re capable of embarrassing you in public.

I have no problem with Igbos calling themselves the best brains in Nigeria. Say it daily if it helps your confidence. My only problem is this: when a Chinese says he can make Nigeria great, you can look at China and nod. When a man from Dubai says it, you can point at Dubai and agree. But when you say it, which of your states proves it? None. Not even one Igbo state today is as developed as Kano. Charity is supposed to begin at home. Yet every time, you’re shouting about how to fix Nigeria, and your blueprint is Bangladesh. Why not cite Anambra? Why not cite Imo? The truth is bitter. You are not what you think you are. You’re just loud. And proud.
