Inside the hall where MKO Abiola, tired of waiting for Sani Abacha to actualise his #June12th mandate, made his famous Ẹpẹtẹdo Declaration that he was the elected President of Nigeria.
Tbh, I think that @followlasg can do better for this historic site.
It’s now a Sports Centre, but again, to be frank it doesn’t amount to a hill of beans, even as a sports centre.
The former Governor of Kano State @MallamShekarau arrives direct from Kano for the event and of course I grab a selfie …

*The Root Political Parties*

A political party's strength is at its roots. This root is the reason why today I will argue that truly politics is local.

As I use to say I will never participate in politics, so I never cared to know the content.
I was part of the #BBOG from 2014 and on May 1, 2014 met @toluogunlesi who I have come to respect.

Back to the topic on politics. I am from Oloru town in, Oloru Ward, Moro Local Government in Kwara state. Moro has 17 wards. Each ward has 27 ward executives.
Each executive are carefully picked from the 30 villages in Oloru ward. The ward executives are the Ward Chairman, vice Chairman, Secretary, Women Leader, Deputy Women Leader, Youth leader, Deputy Women Leader, PRO, Deputy PRO, Treasurer, Deputy Treasurer etc.

Dear Sega, I respect you because of the work that you do. I also have tremendous respect for Dr Oby. In fact, no one amongst Nigeria's elite has inspired me more profoundly than Oby. There is no such thing as "phantom" numbers of the #Chibokgirls.
The #ChibokGirls were held and some are still being held by one of the most vicious and secretive organizations in the world. What I did in April 2018 was to use my deep knowledge of the conflict to challenge the FG and BH to provide full disclosure on the status of the girls.
What happened immediately after I threw that challenge was, my Twitter account was suspended temporarily and death threats followed. Only my family and I bore the brunt of that experience, and several other ill treatment for always trying to get the story out.

Dear @segalink, It has become imperative that I write you at this auspicious time. This is important, not just in the spirit of Egbon (senior) that you are to me but also a future leader & mentor that you are to many of us.
Suffice to say, this message is not in any way an offshoot of the air split that transpired  between yourself and the most estemm Dr @obyezeks a day before.

Well, you might just call it the 'catalyst'.
In my celestial observation of trend and events as you would always love to say. I have observed that if not curtailed, there is a bad precedent being set by most of you distinguished and respectable personalities on this street.

My dear young ones, if there is ONLY one thing you ever LEARN from me let it be this:
Be a person of Truth and Consistency.
When you are, no matter the LIES against you; events will unfold and find you still standing on the same spot of Truth and Consistency.
That’s GREATNESS!
In this same country, in 2013 at a #UNNConvocationSpeech, I spoke up about the Squandering that was going on with the OIL BOOM MONEY. I asked then FG to stem the hemorrhaging.
What was their reaction?
They ATTACKED & MALIGNED me gaan.
By 2015 the TRUTH of what I said REVEALED!
In this same country in 2014, after 29 boys of FGC -Buni Yadi were gruesomely killed by terrorists and burnt to death with a video of their charred remains disseminated to taunt Nigeria, I asked then FG to ACT DECISIVELY & also POSTPONE Centenary Extravaganza.
Reaction?
INSULTS!
