How African leaders get into power, shut the door and keep the key: A THREAD Eyadema died in office in 2005 after 38 yrs in power, his son who's 1-yr-old when he came to power succeeded him The son is now a tyrant in Togo changing constitution to run for 4th term. #Museveni 👇

The last time Arsenal reached the Champions League final, I was in my 300-level year at UNIBEN. I can't believe it's already 20 years. I just hope we can go one step better this time around. #ARSATM #COYG

Best of luck to my team, Arsenal and my boy, Ademola Lookman. I wish Mola could score a hat trick, with Arsenal still advancing 5-4 on aggregate. #ARSATM #ARSvATL

Nigeria's biggest problem isn't politicians but civil servants. Civil service is the nest of corruption, nepotism, inefficiency, tribalism, favouritism, wastages etc. Purging it of this menace is nearly impossible, which is why the nation’s redemption remains far away.

This isn't a coincidence. Glorious souls mustn't cease praying.

Happy birthday, Alex! 🤍🇳🇬

Happy 30th birthday, @alexiwobi! 🇳🇬🦅

@Waspapping_ I saw it yesterday: Tinubu is kind enough to carry the North along in his developmental agenda. During Buhari's 8 yrs, how many capital project did he implement in Lagos nay Southwest, despite the huge support he got from there in 2015? Instead, he built rail to Niger Republic.

₦1 trillion for the Kaduna Light Rail and another ₦1 trillion for the Kano Metropolitan Rail, both approved by Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Two major projects in the North, yet no outrage But once one is approved for the South West, my Northern people will start foaming at the mouth.

@sultanalfayyeed @Waspapping_ During Buhari's 8 years, how many capital project did he implement in Lagos nay Southwest, despite the huge support he got from there in 2015? Tinubu is kind enough to carry the North along in his developmental agenda. How much does Kano and Kaduna contribute to Nigeria's GDP?

@Waspapping_ As of April 30, 2026, the Federal Executive Council (FEC) approved a $2.99 billion package... the Lagos Green Line Phase 1A... Combine the 2 and the remaining audio projects in the north, this alone cancels all of them. Karen Siyasa

Amid the flood of felicitations following my convocation as Overall Best Graduating Student of LAUTECH, I find it necessary to address the stir around my NELFUND appreciation post. I accept the praise, life changing offers and the backlash, in good faith. Still, it is only fair to set the record straight. I hail from a village in Osun State, raised in a modest family of five. I attended public primary and secondary schools, not by choice, but because even the most inexpensive private schools were beyond our means. Even then, survival itself; food and clothing was a daily struggle. I walked miles to school each morning, while my parents laboured as jacks-of-all-trades to make ends meet. For nine defining years before I entered university, we lived within sight of basic amenities yet beyond our reach, no electricity, no television; just lanterns and candles. Against these odds, I earned a scholarship and now this distinction. In my third year, a coursemate’s father, someone I had once tutored academically, gifted me my first smartphone which I am still using till now. On several occasions, lecturers, moved by quiet compassion, provided me with clothing. There are many other instances, too numerous to recount. So, I say this plainly, not all of us are born with a silver spoon. Some of us climbed the ladder by holding on to every rung of legitimate support we could find. As an engineering student aspiring to make academic history, should I resort myself to blaming my family’s financial situation for my inability to afford fees and essentials like a reliable smartphone or laptop needed for skills and certifications? For me personally, NELFUND was not incidental; it was instrumental and to acknowledge what helped one’s journey is neither propaganda nor misplaced allegiance. It is simply an act of appreciation. Thank you @NELFUND and everyone that contributed to this success! Greatness awaits all of Us.

Happy birthday, John Obi Mikel!

@DanielofTruth @OchayiChief You are right, meanwhile the last three points don't apply to all government agencies. You don't have such luxuries in all grade A federal agencies.

@OchayiChief Government Job security Flexibility No pressure Time to do other things

300k monthly to work with the government or 500k monthly to work with private owned parastatal?

@CEZA_NBG @owngoalnigeria My brother, I join you laugh then too

@owngoalnigeria I laugh him and the agent in advance

@juushelp Education doesn't automatically give intelligence in life because education teaches skills and knowledge which only improves thinking. Intelligence isn't only from school but many things like upbringing, experience, attitude, curiosity etc hence, some are smart without education.

sadly, being educated doesn't give intelligence

@stlamine_ Yes - unfortunately, many people, if not most, don’t realise this sacred privilege.

@Sir_olumiju That's the first thing that came to my mind. I think Baba Wande Abímbọ́lá needs to consult his Ifa again to ensure it truly picked this Aláàfin Owoade.

At this point I'm not sure ifá chose this man Sha 😂😂😂

@MapsAfrican When you remember that Nigeria doesn't even rank among the biggest African nations in terms of size, then you understand that what matters most in life is quality and not quantity.

If it doesn’t already exist, I think Yorùbáland needs a formal Legal body responsible for protecting our cultural intellectual property. Items like àṣọ òkè, aṣọ ọlọ́nà, adìrẹ, gèlè, and fìlà are not just fashion, they’re part of our identity and heritage. We’ve seen countries like Ghana take steps to protect things like kente. We should be doing the same. This isn’t about exclusion, it’s about proper attribution, preservation, and respect. When everything gets blurred under a generic “Nigerian” label, distinct identities start to disappear. Yorùbá is a people with a clear cultural identity, and it deserves to be protected. @Yorubaness @ThinkYoruba_1st @yoruba
