There's nothing I may want to say about Nigeria today that I had not said at least 3 times between 2018 & 2024—from the scam it is as a country to the fraudulent decree Nr 24 of 1999 aka the Constitution, from the quadriennal distraction we call elections to our fake religiosity.

Meanwhile, terrorists collecting taxes and levies from hapless citizens, and are live on TikTok brandishing military-grade weapons and displaying bundles of naira extorted from families of kidnap victims. Wicked criminal politicians sitting on top of a failed state. 🤮😡

In 1999, a 16-year-old girl from Enugu, Nigeria won a green card lottery with her mother and moved to the United States. 27 years later, she painted the Obamas. The green card lottery. Think about that. Her name is Njideka Akunyili Crosby. Her mother, Dora Akunyili, was a professor of pharmacology who would later become one of Nigeria's most celebrated public servants, the woman who went to war against counterfeit drugs as NAFDAC Director General. But in the late 1990s, Dora was just a mother who wanted her children to have options. She entered the US Diversity Immigrant Visa Program. The lottery. She won. In 1999, 16-year-old Njideka packed her things. Said goodbye to Enugu, to Lagos, to the life she'd always known. She moved to America with her sister Ijeoma. She took a gap year. Studied for her SATs. Took American history classes. Then returned to Nigeria for National Youth Service. Then came back to the US to start again. She took her first oil painting class at a community college in Philadelphia. Her teacher Jeff Reed saw something. He pushed her to apply to Swarthmore College. She got in. She studied biology and art. She met a Texan named Justin Crosby and eventually married him. She went to Yale for her MFA. She built a career that redefined contemporary art. And on June 14, 2026, 27 years after that green card lottery win, she stood in Chicago and watched Barack and Michelle Obama see their faces in her painting for the very first time. A lottery ticket. A Philadelphia community college. The Obama Presidential Center. Nigeria does not produce ordinary people.

Barack and I were so honored to have @AkunyiliCrosby create our portrait for the Obama Presidential Center. Her artistic brilliance shines through — and the way she infused such life and joy into the piece is truly extraordinary. We love it, and we think everyone who visits the Center will too!

It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby — a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist — to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display in the Hope and Change lobby at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.

Dear beloved sports-loving Nigerian youths, After watching the performances of Davido, Burna Boy, and Rema at the opening of the 2026 World Cup—at a time when Nigeria, the giant of Africa, is absent—I felt a measure of consolation. This was reinforced by the fact that many Nigerians playing for clubs worldwide are representing other countries. Felix Nmecha, for instance, set a record by scoring the fastest goal at six minutes for Germany. I write to you therefore, knowing that this country belongs to you, the youth. You are more of stakeholders in Nigeria’s future than I am. I am 64 years old; by God’s grace, much of my journey is behind me, while yours lies ahead. It is therefore imperative that you rise to the challenge by obtaining your PVC, your most powerful tool for driving the change you desire. In the last three years alone, over 15 million Nigerians have turned 18—enough to decide who becomes President, Governor, Senator, Member of the House, or Local Government Chairman. Indeed, enough to shape the nation’s future. I know many of you are sceptical about politics and political parties. I understand why, but scepticism must not become surrender. You do not need to belong to any party or wait for anyone to organise you. Organise yourselves in your streets, campuses, communities, workplaces, churches, mosques, and social groups. Mobilise, debate, demand accountability, and take part in choosing those you wish to entrust with leadership. If you are organised and wish to hear directly from me, invite me. I will come and share my plans for you and our nation. Do not sit on the sidelines while others decide your future. I appeal to you to register and vote. Your vote can shape who becomes the next President of our country. My young friends, this is your country. Take it back. A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

As someone from Kogi state, Edo's Monday Okpebholo is the only consolation I have, having Ahmed Usman Ododo as governor. 😭😭🤣

What made you strongly believe a person as dull and wicked as Buhari with a STRONG TRACK RECORD OF BAD GOVERNANCE and no record of self improvement after could bring needed change? 😡

We are banning social media access for under 16s. These days kids must find their feet in a world where technology intrudes into every area of their life. I just can’t let that go on anymore. So we’re giving children their childhoods back.

APC data boys cannot answer any question on any issue without finding a way to insert Peter Obi's name into it. As a matter of fact, Peter Obi has become the direct answer to every question posed to them. Question: On the scale of 1-10, rate Tinubu's performance. Data boys: Peter Obi did nothing in Anambra. Question: Our debt profile is ballooning and Tinubu is still borrowing. Don't you think we are borrowing beyond payment convenience? Data boys: Peter Obi didn't leave any money in Anambra. Question: Do you think APC deserves to continue beyond 2027? Data boys: Peter Obi cannot win in 2027. Question: Record shows Tinubu graduated from a school before it was founded: what do you say to this? Data boys: Peter Obi studied Philosophy. Question: The security situation in Nigeria is precarious, what is APC doing to solve the problem? Data boys: Peter Obi did not secure Anambra. Question: Why is the government not cutting down the cost of governance? Data boys: Peter Obi is very stingy. What's left for APC data boys is to enter the market square because they've gone off the rails already.

Peter Obi outperformed Tinubu and Fashola combined, on all growth indices. Propaganda can't be fact.

Sued His University to the Supreme Court and Won ₦20,000,000! Case: Victor v. F.U.T.A. (2026) 8 NWLR (Pt. 2044) 33 Imagine graduating, knowing your grades were wrongly calculated, but being handed a lower class of degree than you earned. Most students would accept "fate" and move on. Mr. Adebayo A. Victor refused to back down. What makes this story incredible? Victor was a layman (not a lawyer), yet he personally prosecuted this case through the entire hierarchy of courts for nearly two decades. The 19-Year Battle for a 2:1 In 2007, Victor graduated in Mechanical Engineering from FUTA, receiving a Second Class Lower. Convinced his scores were wrongly recorded, he spent four years begging the university to re-mark 10 specific courses. The university ignored him. In 2011, he sued. The journey was brutal: 2013: The trial court dismissed his case on a technicality. Victor appealed and won a retrial. 2017: The High Court finally ordered FUTA to re-mark his scripts. FUTA refused and appealed. 2022: Under Supreme Court pressure, FUTA finally complied and re-marked the scripts. The Plot Twist: Victor was right all along. The independent re-marking officially upgraded his degree to a Second Class Upper. His correct certificate was physically handed to him in open court at the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court Defends Student Rights With the degree secured, the Supreme Court turned its attention to the university’s conduct. Led by Justice Helen Moronkeji Ogunwumiju, JSC, the apex court established a massive precedent: The Duty of Care: While universities have academic autonomy, they owe a "Duty of Care" to their students. They must provide fair assessments and transparent complaint procedures. The Penalty: By ignoring Victor for years and causing him to lose international scholarship opportunities, FUTA breached that duty. The lower court had awarded Victor a mere ₦500,000. The Supreme Court threw that out as too small and reviewed the awards upward: ₦18,000,000 in General Damages for emotional distress. ₦2,000,000 in Litigation Costs. Total Takeaway: Victor walked away with his rightful Second Class Upper degree and ₦20,000,000 in compensation. The Big Insight "Justice is not a fencing game where one party seeks to outsmart the other." Whether you run a university or a business, you cannot hide behind institutional bureaucracy to ignore legitimate complaints. Huge respect to Mr. Adebayo Victor for his unmatched resilience! Could you have held on for 15 years to defend your academic rights? Let’s map it out in the comments! © Law Parlor

Akpakomiza is attacking one man. Dave Umahi is attacking one man. Julius Abure is attacking one man. Bayo Onanuga is attacking one man. Kenneth Okonkwo is attacking one man. Adams Oshiomhole is attacking one man. The entire Establishment is attacking one man. Wike is promising Rivers votes. Adeleke is promising Osun votes. Okpebholo is promising Edo votes. Soludo is promising Anambra votes. Akpabio is promising Akwa Ibom votes. Dave Umahi is promising Ebonyi votes. Dapo Abiodun is promising Ogun votes. Sheriff Oborevwori is promising Delta votes. 32 governors are promising Heaven & earth. They renew the promise every market day. It must be wonderful to walk in his shoes. Our man is on everyone’s lips. You will think he snatched their wives. Do you know what it takes for one man to put Aso Rock & the entire Establishment under constant pressure? To the point of forcing grown men to renew their pledges on camera every market day?! He is not your mate jor. If e easy, try am! 💪💪

No matter how much i smile with you, if you were part of those responsible for bringing Buhari into power, whether via your activism, politics or vote, i harbor resentment against you.

Dickson, Obi, Kwankwaso have a historic opportunity not because they are special but because providence may have decided to grease the machine of Nigeria’s democracy through their partnership. They have a duty to posterity to keep their eyes on the ball. This is how men are made

I pity anyone, low or might, who is foolish enough to spread any fake news against Peter Obi. Just see how Obidients are cooking Adams Oshiomhole's under this tweet —community notes, factual rebuttals backed by video and text evidences flying everywhere. 😂🤣🤣

A despicably vainglorious creature 🤮🤮🤮

Took her one week to finish up, beautiful

Oh yes he did! Fela was alive during Buhari's run as head of state. Buhari was a failure then and Nigerians brought him back to fail again. Foolish people.

Didn't even know there was a country called Curaçao 🇨🇼, yet they're playing the World Cup and Nigeria didn't qualify!? 🙄🥺
