Nnamdi Azikwe refused to call the bloody overthrow of the civilian government in 1966 a coup d'etat not only that he was tactically defending the plotters. This was a president of Nigeria that was overthrown hiding in London. He and all Igbo political leaders were left untouched while Yorùbá, Hausa-Fulani and ethnic minorities leaders were butc:hered like common cri:minals by Igbo soldiers. Every Yorùbá sons and daughters must be taught history.

President Trump does not respect African Nations, & the sovereignty of her nations. He talks down on us, like we are nothing. When in fact, the western nations cannot survive without Africa. If he doesn't want to come to SA for the G20 summit, so be it. Africa is richest continent in the world. If only our leaders will put on their thinking caps, & use our resources effectively and efficiently. We must fight against mental slavery. And tell ourselves that, we are the cradle of civilization. President Trump is the President of the US. Not the President of the world. No one gave him that position. Not even God. African leaders must comes together, & work with the western and other Nations that want to work with us, with mutual respect and cooperation. South Africa and Nigeria are one of the biggest economies in Africa. Together, we can can work with other countries in Africa, and form a united front. We must stop allowing religion, tribe, race to divide us. And we must shun greed, and embrace our diversity. Nigeria, South Africa and other Nations have never been enemies to the United States. President Trump should acknowledge that. God saved his life many times, and he has suffered a lot to be president for the second time. He should not forget that. This constant bullying, & denigration of countries he perceives as "weak", because he feels that he has the military might, is not healthy. America has always been the land of the free and the home of the brave. He was fairly and credibly elected as the President. A election that everyone admired, & would wish to be replicated in African countries, too. Nigeria and Africa need the US and other nations, just as much as they need us. These insults are as a result of failed leadership in Africa, over the years. It doesn't matter anymore, if any African leader was elected through questionable elections, once you become a leader, see it as an opportunity to right the wrongs. Cut off all sycophants that want to use you, to steal our common patrimony, and use our resources judiciously. Let's stop giving these western nations the undeserving rights to talk down on us like we are nobody. The insults and humiliation have gone too far. But in a way, I don't blame them in its entirety. Some of our citizens have allowed our leaders to weaponize poverty, tribal and religious bigotry against us. Nigeria and Africans, have the brightest of minds, and we have contributed immensely, to the development of the US, in different areas of their lives & economy. End.
I want to use this opportunity to thank every Yoruba person out there When Jonathan was in power, his people formed the Niger Delta militant wing where they kidnapped & killed people, especially kidnapping foreigners for money & also demanding billions of naira which Jonathan's government gave to them When Buhari was about to come in, his people, Northerners, formed Boko Haram and Fulani bandits where they entered villages, kill and kidnap people anyhow they like. And it got worse when Buhari eventually became president. Cows were first-class citizens. All over Nigeria, Fulani herdsmen went into people's farms with their cows, destroyed the farmers crops, killed the farmers, went into christain villages, massively massacred people and still demanded billions from the FG which the FG willingly gave to them. And we're still battling with these Islamic terrorists today Igbos, on their own, used the term "Biafra" to play victims and get whatever they wanted. They decided to sit at home for years & gaslight the FG into doing their bid. Then, they formed a militant group called "IPOB" to cause insecurity in the SE. This same IPOB are killing their own fellow ibos now In all of these, Yorubas have remained sane, peaceful, and progressive. A Yoruba man is in power, yet Yorubas have not formed any militant wing to disrupt Tinubu's government. In fact, it's the terrorist groups from the North & East that are disrupting Tinubu's government
This person, FOLAKE ONYINYE @Miceldoo, is using my NYSC picture, which I posted recently, as their display picture. I do not know this person and I am not familiar with them. This is impersonation. Please, I want to help me report this account immediately. I want this account gone.
A bright and beautiful good morning to the world!
We face challenges head-on and remain steadfast in our commitment to engage partners and champion Nigeria's interests on the diplomatic front. We are confidently asserting our presence on the global stage, guided by unwavering calm, clarity, and a strong sense of purpose. We are indeed faced with terrorism - a challenge Nigeria has faced for almost two decades, and we will not back down. We will decisively defeat terrorism and claim victory in this battle. Security is non-negotiable, and we will never compromise on this principle. With unwavering courage and a steadfast commitment to the rule of law, we will prevail. Nigeria is one united family. We rise together, move forward together, and reject despair in favour of determination. Our future is far more robust and stronger than any fears we may have. The task ahead is immense, yet our resolve is even greater. We will continue to sustain and build on our reform gains and deliver a prosperous and inclusive Nigeria. We will spare no effort and leave no stone unturned in our mission to eliminate criminals from our society. We urge our allies to stand firmly with us as we amplify our fight against terrorism. We have made significant progress in the past two years and we will decisively eliminate this threat. With courage and the rule of law, we will triumph. Nigeria will be, and remain a reliable partner and dependable ally to its friends and a steady voice for stability. We also welcome the collaboration and support of our allies, friends, and partners as we strengthen both security and economic growth. To the brave men and women of our armed forces and intelligence community united by purpose, regardless of tribe or religion, who serve fearlessly, fight side-by-side and sometimes pay the ultimate price, we express our deepest gratitude. Your commitment is our strength in the fight against terror. ~ Bola Ahmed Tinubu President, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Federal Republic of Nigeria

There a lot of to unpack from this video but I will highlight 3 things that stood out for me: 1. Asiwaju is a Master at Delayed Gratification. He pushed Nuhu Ribadu on his platform when he could simply run for president as early as 2007/2011, he silently built a coalition of governors without hugging the limelight, he rejected the offer to become Vice-President and didn’t ask for any concessions in return. Many people in his shoes would have jumped at all of these opportunities. He didn’t!!! That’s DELAYED GRATIFICATION and MASTER PLANNING at its finest. A quality Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi lacked throughout their political careers hence their inability to break through that glass ceiling. It is very difficult to WIN against a man who spent 25 years of his life in the shadows creating MEN to lift him for ONE moment. You simply can’t! I know Youths these days are big on instant gratification and the concept of delayed gratification is alien to them BUT I really do hope they can learn one of two life skills from Asiwaju! 2. Wisdom! Wisdom!! Wisdom!!! Never jump at the first offer… Asiwaju was asked to submit 3 names. Instead he insisted on submitting only one name. He was wise enough to preempt the actions of his so called Allies even at that time. Now, listen to the political calculation he did after being offered the vice presidential position, how it would affect Bukola Saraki, what it would do to the party, why he didn’t accept any gratification from the Buhari government… Everything sums up a man filled with WISDOM and very confident in his strategy. Why did he choose Abeokuta to make this speech? Why did he dress down Dapo Abiodun specifically in front of his own people? Why did he choose that period before the primaries to tell this story? Even the best political strategist would never have found answers and predicted this bold move from Asiwaju Bola Tinubu… wisdom is really profitable to direct! 3. Asiwaju is a Yoruba Conservative to the core. This entire address was first done almost entirely in YORUBA meaning that he had his specific audience. He specifically told Buhari he had no problem supporting him as long as “Yoruba matters is never played with” He went further to sing one of Herbert’s songs and continually reiterated that it is the TURN of the YORUBAS in the APC! He didn’t mince words or try to be diplomatic with his words. It is the turn of the YORUBAS!!! The North has never been too afraid to behave like they control the destiny of the country, the Igbos were unapologetic in “demanding” for the presidency on a golden plate, why should a Yoruba man be hounded for saying it is the turn of the Yorubas? More than ever, this is a YORUBA presidency and the Yoruba people must rally behind the Yoruba man to ensure he succeeds.
100 years from now, this campaign speech by Bola Ahmed Tinubu will be revisited in history classes.
I’ve a confession guys. I watch this video every morning and evening because it makes me happy 😁

I am incredibly proud of President Tinubu’s response so far. No press conferences, No jittery trip to Washington, No panic. Just the typical silence you give to a mad man who doesn’t understand boundaries while you keep working on your security architecture. My GOAT!

JANUARY 15 - THE LAST STAND OF A LION; THE COURAGE AND TRAGEDY OF SAMUEL LADOKE AKINTOLA In the grand and tragic history, Premier Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola, with unwavering dignity, steeled himself for the tumultuous storm that was about to engulf him. A ruthless force of fifty soldiers, commanded by the fiery and unforgiving Captain Emmanuel Nwobosi, descended upon his residence. Within the sanctuary of his home, Akintola was surrounded by his wife and children, whose voices rang with pleading concern, begging him to stay hidden and not challenge the blurdthirsty marauders cloaked in the garb of tragedy. In a moment of sheer valour, they shielded themselves behind the heavy wardrobes as a hailstorm of bullets tore through their sanctuary. But Nwobosi, driven by a relentless thirst for blood, was resolute in his mission. At a decisive moment, Akintola, with the courage of a lion, turned to his family and declared that he could not cower behind furniture like a frightened cat. He would not allow his loved ones to remain helplessly in hiding while these merciless invaders threatened their very existence. In a voice filled with resolute strength, he proclaimed his intention to confront the enemy head-on, to face Azrael rather than live in fear. The mighty Akintola, like the Aare Ona Kakanfo, Warrior king that he was, emerged into the open, challenging his would-be assassins. He confronted them with a defiant fury, opening fire upon his attackers. This was no man to fall without a struggle, no soul willing to be swept away by the tides of fate without leaving a mark upon the waters. Nwobosi and his men, though skilled and ruthless, found themselves taking cover as Akintola, though but a single civilian, drew blood and wounded trained combatants. But fate, ever cruel, had conspired against the Premier. The rebels, armed with superior firepower and a more refined mastery of the art of war, ultimately prevailed. Akintola, his body pierced by bullets unleashed from the very hands of Nwobosi, fell in defiance. His lifeless form was left amidst a pool of his own blud, a tragic end to a life lived with unyielding courage. Worthy of unforgettable note, however, is this: among all the leaders the Igbo Majors struck down on that ill-fated night, only Aare Ona Kakanfo Akintola rose like a wounded lion and fought back. It remains a tale woven with threads of bravery, raw courage, and that indomitable Yoruba fighting spirit - the kind that refuses to bow to bullies even when the night itself turns against you. May his soul find eternal peace. A man of many tongues - fluent in English, Hausa, Nupe, and Yoruba... Akintola - had spoken the language of unity and strength. That night, however, the rebels spoke a singular and final language: ‘MURDER,’ a tongue beyond his grasp. Good Morning Severally...
