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

Pornography is a heart problem, not a marriage problem. You can't fix it with more sex or a better wife. You fix it by hating your sin and loving Jesus more than your immorality. The gospel is the only power that truly breaks the chains.

Dear Christian Twitter,
My baddies in the Lord, I know you want to dress to impress and attract. Do it by all means. Look hot and stunning but cover your breast!
God doesn’t need to see it.

@tomisin_ms There’s so many misconceptions around female reproductive health. It’s even more tiring cos Google is free to use.

@Thereal_tholuu @Tomi_Tomero As in he can’t just end the session? I say some songs and some prayer points in church eh “thank God you’re in the sanctuary not in the motuary” you don’t even know where people are coming from. I’m grateful for my church
English
@Tomi_Tomero As how😭
Even if he ran out of songs why is that the next option

One foolish fool at my dad’s funeral started singing “I can carry my body Emi Mimo ese”, when we were raising worship songs randomly before we left the grave site.
That was my first time hearing the song and I was just so irritated, old man o, was jumping like a toddler, useless foolish old man.

I’m extremely selective with songs I sing and listen to! I mean extremely!! I’m at an event and I just heard a song “Ibi ti mo gba koja, awon kan gba’be s’oda”. Meaning “the road I passed and nothing happened, the same road has killed some people”. I HATE HATE HATE HATE SONGS LIKE THIS WITH EVERYTHING IN MY SOUL! I HATE songs that mention the unfortunate situations of others disguised as gratitude to God. It irritates my spirit in such a deep way! Nigerian songwriters need to use their brains more! It is STUPID!!!! It is TACTLESS! It is SELFISH!!! Above all, it doesn’t please not glorify God. STOP IT!!!

One Wednesday, a student was hungry and decided to eat. All she did wrong was to step out of her hostel to buy food to eat.
Minutes turned to hours, and she didn't come back.
Her friends got worried and decided to call her number, but it was switched off.
10 months later, her phone has remained switched off, and unfound.
There have been no meaningful updates, no clear answers, and the noise around her disappearance has faded like it never happened. We do not know where she is. We do not know what happened, and we do not even know whether she is alive or not.
Her name was Dorcas, the only child of her parents and she could have been anybody.
BIGGEST VIRG is on Fanatix@StudentByNature
If you have a sibling, friend, or family member who is in any Nigerian University, kindly say a word of prayer for them once you see this and also send them money, because they need it. In OOU, students had to hit the streets after armed robbers invaded hostels at midnight, shooting, stealing phones and gadgets, injuring students, and even carjacking a vehicle. At EKSU, students have been facing repeated security issues incessant gunmen attacks, with one student murdered behind Lakers' hostel earlier this month. When students protested, they were met with tear gas. In OAU, students are currently dealing with unrest over transportation issues, with some having to trek long distances to go home after being evicted from school hostels for protesting.. In the space of one week, they mourned two students, one who lost his life during an exam due to cardiac arrest and another who committed suicide due to depression. A student was recently kidnapped on the way to IT and had to pay ransom before being released. At Unilorin, students queue every single day , yet many cannot even speak out. At Covenant University, a student’s life was lost due to delayed emergency response. The cost of studying has skyrocketed, making basic survival harder for students. Academic pressure as well as financial pressure, exploitation from lecturers, and unfair academic conditions. Life in school is becoming more difficult by the day, and many students are struggling to afford basic amenities. In our quest for a degree, may we not be sent back home unalived to our parents 🙏

Having been in ACTIVE TEENS MINISTRY for 18+ years, I will tell you this simply. Parents are the problem of children. We can dance around it all we want and even blame “society”. It’s largely the failure of parents. The church cannot, and is not meant to replace parenting.

There isn’t a rise in PCOS, there are just more people being diagnosed and willing to publicly talk about it.
Stop being a distasteful Olodo.

If the fear of losing the favour of mere mortals is why you cannot be vocal about truth, I’m telling you clearly that you don’t know God. At best, you’re also “using” God. You really don’t know Him.

@globalconfy @kunle_kenny People are coming from different things. Its insensitive. Can we all just thank God for the finished work of Christ? I’m so grateful we’re moving past that. There was a time all thanksgiving songs were just like that. “Many are dying, many are perishing “
English
“Some are in the hospital
Some are in the mortuary
But we’re here in his sanctuary
Brethren praise the lord!”
Thank God we moved past that.

Earlier this year I paused church for a month or so because I was grieving and i just wasn’t ready. When i eventually was, one of the things I was grateful for was the fact that my church doesn’t say this thing. Someone i deeply love died but thank God it isn’t me? Hello??

@Only1Etubo My dad will ask how school was, what we did in school, thaught us to play scrabble and then watched us play. At times he sleeps off while watching but we don’t even notice. We’re too busy playing and we just can’t wait to tell dad who won. I always looked forward to weekends

Dear men, I just wanted to share this before I fully move on from this topic because I want posterity to see that I made an effort. It’s Saturday, and today is a good day to take that first step toward bonding with your kids.
We know it has been a very busy week, and you are tired. If you’re home, please try not to sleep all day. Get some rest, then ask your kids to find a book and read to you. If they fear you, calmly reassure them that they are not in trouble and that reading to you will make you feel better. Seeing that they can help you in a vulnerable moment will make them happy. Ask them to tell you their favorite stories. Do they like to play football? Watch them play and cheer them on. Do they enjoy playing “suwe”? Cheer them on while they play. Do you have any games at home? Play with them. Do they have a favorite movie? Watch it with them. Ask about their week. Find out what they like and don’t like about school. Talk to them about your work. Share what you do for a living and explain it in a way they can understand. Let them be close to you. Use a calm voice with them. Don’t let it be that the only time they hear your voice is when they do something wrong. As their father, be their confidant and comforter, not just their punisher. When their mother reports them to you, tell her to handle the situation. Don’t discipline them over everything. Sometimes, you just need to talk to them. Praise and boost their confidence when they do something right. When they make mistakes, encourage them to learn from them. Children will always be children; they will make mistakes. It is our responsibility to guide them. Make them comfortable in the house you built for them. Don’t let them walk on eggshells around you. Eat with them. Relax with them.
If you are not home with them, today is a good day to call and check on them. Don’t tell their mom to say hi to them, ask her to give them the phone so you can speak to them directly. If they fear you enough not to want to talk, ask their mom to put the phone on speaker. Don’t you think they would love to hear your voice? Don’t you think it’s important for them to know that you are okay? Don’t you think they miss their dad? Hearing your voice could make their day. Call them and ask what they ate. If their mom calls you to report them, tell her you trust her to handle it. She can discipline them too. When you get home, talk to them about it and give them tips on how to avoid making the same mistakes. You can speak to them for just a minute, and it will always be worth it. Tell them you miss them and that you can’t wait to see them. Showing that you care will give them comfort.
