I Japa at 40+ 🇳🇬 → 🇨🇦
I thought I knew how to use Google Maps… until I Japa! 🤣 As a JJC (Johnny Just Come), I came with confidence steeze. After all, I was a well-grounded student of Geography back home, and used maps sparingly when I had to. I thought navigation would be easy. Wetin Google Maps use my eyes see eehh! 🥴I passed my destination countless times, ended up in the wrong vicinity, got frustrated, gave up, and booked rides… only for the ride apps to charge me a few dollars, I was clinging on to, to get by in this land, and still drop me on the same street I had already walked past without realizing it was my destination. 🤣 That was when humility entered my personal group chat 😂. I had to abandon pride, slow down, relearn how to read maps properly, understand directions better, and pay attention to measurement in distance to cover, North-South-East-West turns, and how locations are structured here. All the time I goofed, and still goofing, because learning many things in this society is ongoing, I switch to making fun of myself, thinking about them, and talking to people about them, in comic ways😁. Many things to unlearn. Many things to relearn. Many simple life skills to adapt to. Japa go humble you. 😂

Atiku cannot honour the presidential zoning to the south because of his greed and ambition and you people don’t think that’s foul?

I Japa at 40+ 🇳🇬 → 🇨🇦
Yes, I didn't Japa in my 20s or 30s, and I will never regret doing it now! 💪😍 I may not be an expert in economics, but I want to love Canada 🇨🇦 with the same intensity I love Nigeria. It hasn’t been without its drawbacks, but after 10 months as a PR and 5 months of full-time work in those 10, something small but significant happened. The CRA combined my taxes, earnings (here + last 6months of last year before I left Naija) and sent a tax refund of $270+ to me. My spouse received $370+ after filing hers. Subsequently it will grow, after working for the next 1 full year, all things being equal. To some, that’s nothing. To me, it’s a sign of a system that actually gives back. Where I come from, the system often steals from the people; here, even the smallest amount finds its way home to you. Between that and the grocery rebates, I’ve realized something: there is no greater contentment while away from the motherland than staying grateful and realistic. It feels strange to see people move somewhere and spend all your energy criticizing it. Even if others disagree with these incentives, I see a place where leaders don't just pocket our taxes. I see a country where the currency provides the basics if you work hard and keep developing yourself. A place where "change" and coins still hold value. For what it's worth, thank you Canada. I am grateful. 🍁 #japareceipts #Gratitude #Perspective #ImmigrantLife

For a man who fought for democracy in the 90s, it is disappointing to see the way our civic space is shrinking under his watch. President Tinubu must allow democracy to thrive during his tenure.

Once Peter Obi wins the ADC primaries, many of Atiku's supporters will decamp and start supporting Tinubu. Bookmark this tweet.

An Atiku/Obi ticket is the only combination capable of seriously challenging Tinubu; any other option is essentially a distraction. Anyone arguing otherwise is, knowingly or not, helping Tinubu stay in power until 2031.

Atiku Abubakar
Atiku Abubakar@atiku·
The reports from the spokesperson of our great party, which exposes the plans of the government and its agents to revoke the licence of Rainbow Event Centre for the singular offence of hosting the African Democratic Congress convention slated for today, Tuesday, April 14, 2026, is a shameful and cowardly abuse of public office. Let it be said without equivocation: coercing a private business owner to deny a lawfully registered opposition party the use of a venue is not governance. It is not politics. It is the naked conduct of a regime that has lost the argument, lost the people, and now reaches for the boot because it has nothing else left. The ADC has paid every fee. The ADC has signed every contract. The ADC has broken no law. Our only offence is that we are organising, we are growing, and we are preparing to retire this failed government at the ballot box in 2027. This is how democracies are strangled, not in a single dramatic blow, but in a thousand petty, vindictive acts against opposition parties, against free assembly, and against the sacred right of citizens to choose their own leaders. To the international community, and every democratic partner of Nigeria: take note of what is being done here tonight, and in whose name. We will not be intimidated. We will not be silenced. We will not bow to this creeping tyranny, and we will never bow to the petty tyrants behind it. The convention will hold. The ADC will rise. And Nigeria will rise with it. -AA

@Morris_Monye @MizCazorla1 Moris, I think that take misses the mark. It sounds like you’re suggesting that anyone who supports Atiku Abubakar is being paid, which isn’t fair. People are entitled to their own political choices and should be free to support whoever they believe in.

@officialABAT will likely win the 2027 presidential election unless ADC gives @PeterObi ticket and he is FULLY supported by Atiku and northern leaders. GEJ lost in 2015 because of northern conspiracy that enabled rigging in the north for up to 60%. Tinubu will never be rigged by anybody. The only way to win him is through a national outrage against him and the enthusiasm of young people.

I am angry in my spirit. I am boiling hot rn. A young man was given 15k usd as proof of fund for his jaapa to Finland, a year after he didn't travel, his uncle now requested for thr money so another family member can use it to travel. Can you believe this good for nothing adult played bet with 5k usd and lost it. He didn't even have the decency to tell the owner, he didn't even make effort to find the money since last year. Uncle has collected his 10k and told everyone in the family to go sort themselves. He won't help anyone again😩😩 One stupid person now has spoilt the only person in the extended family who is willing to help young people migrate without stress. OMG

If ADC gives Atiku ticket 2027, after the election Atiku won't win and the following will happen. 1) Opposition party and voices will die in Nigeria politics. 2) ADC will died like her cousin PDP. 3) Nigeria will become one party state. 4) Tinubu dreams and ambitions will be fulfilled. 5) Tinubu family will turn to royal family overseeing who lead Nigeria. 6) Nigeria will be gone. End.
