My grandfather, Mallam Bello Ijumu, founded NEPU; one of Nigeria’s oldest political parties right in his parlour at Sabon Gari, Kano. History often credits Aminu Kano as the founder, but it was Mallam Bello who invited him, a northerner to serve as the party’s public face.

"We will be making millions during this World cup" 😹😹

This is not the media narrative that Peter Obi or NDC needs now. People like Oshiomole are pummeling Obi with lies and half-truths while we are still seeing this messianic nonsense. APC is back on the offensive, and the NDC must fight with facts and fire, not hope and dreams.

If you don't have the means to fund your vices, you're not a good person - you're just poor. Morality isn't proven by absence of temptation but choices made in it's presence You're not a faithful husband - you've just not been privileged to walk the streets of Madrid at night.

This week marks International Men's Week 2026. I started to put together this thread last week & this morning - I have all my thoughts together. From one man to another, From the core of my heart to yours, From the recognition of my struggles to yours, I share this:

This too shall pass. Time is your ally.

Have boundaries. Make them clear to everyone. Have boundaries for colleagues, your partner, your family, your siblings, your children. Let your first response of instinct be "No", then slowly roll out on why you should say " Yes". "No" is a complete statement. Always use it.

Comparison will always steal your joy. It doesn't matter how behind you think you are, there are people behind you. It doesn't matter how ahead you think are, there are people in front of you. You need to balance contentment with ambition. Calm down. Don't die.

A few years ago, I started pepper farming under irrigation. I did 900 stands, and only about 300 survived, but those survivors lasted for months and taught me invaluable lessons. Fast forward to today: I am currently planning 20,000 stands of pepper, and the energy is unmatched! The land has officially been cleared. Ridge-making follows this week because our seedlings are getting ready. For a project this size, I completely ditched the modern nursery tray method and went back to a "primitive" (traditional) raised bed method. Why? Because the numbers don't lie. If I were to use nursery trays for 20,000 seeds: 157 Nursery Trays: ₦188,400 (157 x ₦1,200) Coco Peat: ₦42,000 Manure: (Variable additions) Anti-Predator/Nursery Structure: ₦230,000 That is already ₦460,400 spent on the nursery stage alone! 😆 Meanwhile, I’ve spent practically nothing on the traditional raised bed method. Here is a major takeaway: pepper seedlings on a well-prepared raised bed actually grow and develop rapidly compared to the ones confined to nursery trays. They get deeper root access and zero restriction right from the start. Moving forward, my goal is to ruthlessly cut production costs in a sustainable, practical way, and I’ll be sharing the data and reasons behind every decision. We move!

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

1,500,000 returned to the company that credited me in error, I didn't get "a thank you" but that's not why I did it. It would've been nice.

Back to what I was saying yesterday If God blesses you, your wife and kids are lifted If God blesses your wife, then the burden is less on you. If you raise 1,000 men, there is a chance that 1,000 new families are created. If you raise 1,000 women, then there will be 1,000 more comfortable women. This is the honest to God truth from God Himself.

Nigerian men, please choose women who are financially stable, and women whose families are financially stable. — U.S. lady advises Nigerian men.

Sustained wealth happens when you have a community thinking together. The key person who is visibly wealthy only achieves that wealth because others also have skin in the game and propel them for their benefit. I am not engaging in "trillionaire worship" like others, but what was instructive about the SpaceX IPO was that the cafeteria workers and janitors at the same company also became wealthy. That is a bigger deal than anything else. I hear so much talk about founders and investors in African entrepreneurship, but what nobody tells you is that the people who also became wealthy are the people who supported the entrepreneur and the enterprise with work. Decades ago, I discovered that Dangote's depot operators, when he was selling commodities, were also Naira billionaires in their own right. They didn't need to cheat him to get wealthy, as most misguided people believe employees should do; they had an arrangement that made all of them wealthy. Dangote took the financial risk while the depot chiefs took the operational risks. I see this same dynamic in many supply chains in Africa. My wife's aunt's 70th birthday in Accra last year was attended by all the key FMCG players and traders who worked together in an ecosystem that they all profited from. Aliko became rich because his family learned about this model long before anyone else did. He benefited immensely from it, and he is passing this same ecosystem-building approach on to the next generation of his family. This aspect of African entrepreneurship is rarely discussed. People want to hear grass-to-grace stories or miracles. True wealth in reality is built by communities and ecosystems that work in sync. I will be talking about it a lot more. I survived surgery yesterday, and I am grateful for another chance to keep doing this.

This is truly devastating; we, as South Africans, will bear significant consequences for these inhumane actions.

I really hate the way that Kolu talks, Carter Efe is an angel for tolerating him.

😭😭😭 Continental bastards.
