Glad that Buhari's friend @JustinWelby, the Archbishop of Canterbury,found the decency &courage to express outrage about the #LekkitollgateMassacre.For the last 5 years thousands of innocent civilians were slaughtered under his friend's watch &he said NOTHING so what changed?1/4
..Why did he refuse speak out when others were being slaughtered?Why did he turn a blind eye to the atrocities & barbaric crimes that were being committed? Clearly he is part of the problem? When you encourage & support a tyrant it means that you are an accomplice to tyranny.2/5
..By his constant fawning &grovelling before Buhari & his unyielding love, friendship & support for him,was he not complicit in the ethnic cleansing, genocide & crimes against humanity that the President & his supporters unleashed on the Nigerian people over the last 5 years?3/5
...When you encourage and support a tyrant and remain silent when he kills his own people it means you are complicit in his crimes. I advise @JustinWelby to beg God for forgiveness and condemn Buhari and ALL the killings that have taken place in Nigeria over the last 5 years.4/5
..That is when we can take him seriously and accord him the respect that would ordinarily be his due.

...#DjSwitch should be commended for her extraordinary courage and not questioned, vilified or condemned. Had it not been for her efforts this great evil that was unleashed on our children & perpetuated by Government forces and rogue soldiers would have been covered up &...2/3
...brushed under the carpet like so many other barbaric acts of state-sponsored genocide, ethnic cleansing & mass murder that have been covered up in the past. No matter how hard they try to make this go away they will fail! They will never get away with it or escape justice.
I have chosen to take the high horse and I refuse to allow my estranged wife to turn the affairs of my personal life into a public circus. If she has any issues let her use the right medium as a responsible adult and mother and stop secretly feeding the media with damaging..1/8
..scandals geared towards the destruction of our children's future. I have kept quite in order to protect my children, I have covered all her madness over the past 7 years & not once did I expose her. But the facts are there & the witnesses & evidence are readily available..2/8
..for the courts. I broke my silence yesterday only because my hand has been forced. Rather than focusing on the problem of brutality & evil plaguing our country, or the myriad of other issues holding citizens hostage, some people would prefer to spread and partake in what..3/8
Happy 60th birthday Nigeria. Many ups and downs but we are still together. Many shattered dreams but we are still one. Many broken hearts but we are still standing. Many wounded souls but our heart is still beating. Many blighted spirits but our resolve remains strong..1/3
..Many broken limbs but our body remains intact. Many dashed hopes but we still tread the path. Many great betrayals but we still savour the vision.
May God direct & chart our course, may He heal our land, may He soothe our pain & may He take away the hurt of our people..2/3
..May He make our nation what He wants her to be & may He give us leaders that will take us to the promise land. May He cause our light to shine brightly & may He cause our joy to be full. May He exalt our horn, enlarge our coast & defend our borders...3/4
As part of my tour of the Southern states I have spent the last 4 days in Ado Ekiti with my friend & brother Governor Kayode Fayemi, Governor of Ekiti state and Chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum. We have been discussing crucial national issues and matters concerning..1/5
...the South Western zone and we have also been building bridges across party lines, exchanging ideas and charting the way forward for our great nation. Ado Ekiti is like a second home to me and my delegation and I have been treated with so much love, respect and warmth..2/5
..We have also had plenty of well-earned rest & a wonderful time. Fayemi has been my friend & brother for over 30 years & he is the quintessential gentleman. Apart from the fact that he is a formidable intellectual, he is also cool, calm, extremely discerning & insightful..3/5
On September 12th 2014, 6 years ago today, 115 people were killed when a flying device brought down a building in the premises of Prophet T.B. Joshua's Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN) in Lagos, Nigeria. This was an unprecedented and premeditated act of terror yet up..1/5
..until today no-one has been brought to book for it & the authorities have swept the entire event under the carpet.
Worse of all is the perfidious,self-serving & insidious attempt by the relevant authorities to make the whole thing look as if it was nothing but a terrible..2/5
..accident that took place as a result of a faulty foundation for reasons best known to themselves. We remember the Christian martyrs that were killed on that day and we continue to celebrate their lives, share the pain of their families and Church and mourn them..3/5
Arrived in Ado Ekiti, Ekiti state this morning to spend a few days with my old friend & brother Gov. John Kayode Fayemi & to discuss national issues & South West unity & solidarity with him..1/5
..Even though we are in different political parties & I remain a loyal member of @OfficialPDPNig whilst he is in the APC we must build bridges of peace, mutual respect &understanding not just across regional, ethnic &religious lines in our nation but also across party lines..2/5
...This will enhance peace, unity & stability in our nation. As it has been with the other 8 state Governors that I have visited on this tour over the last one month my delegation and I have been received with love and warmth...3/5
