SHALOM MEANS WAR

My new beauty salon space . Opens up on the first of December 🩷.

Fellow Nigerians, good morning. I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you. Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry daily—the private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances. We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the people—a society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal. More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism. We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishness—a system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power. Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise. Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them. However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building. Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in one’s own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated. And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions. There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline? Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from. Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all. A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Dear Airtel, Since there's shortage of people that sell akara on Saturday morning, why don't you look into that business and leave this telecom business? Best disregard, An unsatisfied customer.

@Apocallyptik Not my own Jesus. Blocked 😚🙏

@your_dailyafro He bigger than Jesus. 🤷🏾‍♂️

“Is Michael Jackson bigger than…”. BLOCKED.

@stevecollins88 @Shemei_I_am Yeah I just had this talk with someone she and we both thought the same thing. I grew up knowing the name ‘The Beatles’ before I even heard any of their songs.

@Shemei_I_am @your_dailyafro In fact had a look, The only one above in terms of sales is The Beatles. Elvis ain't even that close.

@davinchy9769 I don’t like what I hate 🤷🏽‍♀️

@your_dailyafro You are strict 😅

@hlovo_ Sameeee

I see the Moonwalk and the lean but this right here is one of my favourite 😂🔥

Day 2 was a blast, delivering a vibrantly immersive display of creativity; with exhibitions showcasing massive talent. And talk about growth at scale!, this year's participants total over 10,000 from last year's 4000 including graduates from last year’s edition; a testament to the impact of the #FashionFutureProgram #TFG2026 #Ahia360

@Charzzzz01 I’m a Davido fan but that’s big ‘animal talk’ 😭🤣🤣

@your_dailyafro nah facts people someone said Davido is slowly dethroning him like wtf i think something is in the air today

@iAMKINGBEECH Chiraq

What Nicki Minaj song gets you going in the gym?

If your tweet is about comparing Michael Jackson or asking preposterous questions about him, I go block your Popcy. Because you’re obviously not a serious person.

Cardi B makes music for girls that think talking louder is winning an argument. Nicki clears

@nypost LEAVE MICHAEL ALONE!

Jackson family eager to cash in after $217M opening weekend for 'Michael' -with talks of 'Thriller' tour and movie sequels trib.al/8Ogl5di

Le kwa this Efulefu. You that acted a movie role as Peter Obi. Why didn’t you refuse?

What a deeply unserious list. Kendrick Lamar a better vocalist than Celine Dion. Help

My friend is leaving the uk, his dad is running for senate. I asked him what party, he left me on read

Oh, if he were back home in Nigeria, his fellow pedos would ask us why a 19 years old girl was out by that time of the night alone. A very pedo country.

You placed visa bans on ordinary Nigerian citizens who have nothing to do with the atrocities this government is committing yet you still allow these same politicians &their children you speak of everyday to travel freely & live in the US. When you are serious you know what to do

@SeewhyChels A conversation of clowns.

🚨 Ebro and Peter Rosenberg say Michael Jackson’s Thriller is the “McDonald’s of albums” says it’s massive but has no real meaning and claims it has “3 skips in a row”

@OGxTP Simple.

All the thinkpieces on why Michael Jackson’s music “aged” better than Prince music are hilarious. Michael was just better and made better music dawg.
