I will say this once for all to hear.

Chief Sunday Adeyemo (AKA Sunday Igboho) is by far the most popular and powerful man in South Western Nigeria today. He has inspired millions and restored the honor and self-respect of the Yoruba nation. 1/
...He has also proved to the doubting Thomas' that the sons of Oduduwa are not cowards. His views are simple and clear and he is entitled to them. He does not believe in Nigeria but in Oduduwa Republic and that is his right. We may not all agree with those views but we will..2/
..defend his right to hold them. We may not all accept his methods but, as long as he operates within the law, we have no right to criminalise, demonise, undermine or stop him. He is not a terrorist,a criminal or a murderer. He is a law-abiding Nigerian citizen & businessman..3/
..who pays his taxes, defends his people and stands up against dangerous murderers and killers that have come from outside our territory to kill our people. He is not an activist but a freedom fighter, a hero and a liberator of the oppressed who opposes tyranny and the...4/
...mass murder, ethnic cleansing & enslavement of his people. Unfortunately there appears to be a well-orchestrated plan & dastardly plot by some identifiable forces & individuals to eliminate him. The attempt to abduct him like a common criminal in the middle of the road..5/
..whilst he was on his way to a meeting with our reverred father Papa Ayo Adebanjo a few days ago by security forces is just one pointer, amongst others,to this. They want to silence him at all costs because of what he has been doing, what he believes in & what he stands for. 6/
..This must not be allowed to happen. It must not see the light of day. Those behind it must perish the thought because if it does there will be dire, far-reaching & uncontrollable consequences for our entire nation.
If it does there will be a massive & brutal retaliation..7/
...and Nigeria will be broken. If it does the quest for Oduduwa Republic will no longer be a peaceful, lawful and constitutional one but it will become a violent and brutal freedom struggle which will lead to an armed struggle and civil war in which millions will die. 8/
..If he is killed those behind him will stop talking & writing & instead they will start targetting the enemy and fighting.
No-one will be safe and no-one will escape it. This is not what I wish for but it is what I see and I pray it never comes to pass. Nevertheless I see..9/
..and sense it. I perceive it strongly and it scares and worries me. Igboho is unlike any other hero in Yoruba history. He is special and he is the beloved of the Lord. What he is doing is what God sent him into the world to do. He was carefully crafted and prepared for it. 10/
..Nothing must happen to this great, noble and courageous son of Oduduwa who has captured the hearts and minds of over 60 million Yoruba people from all over the world. He must not be killed.
Let me end with the following. 11/
..Chief Sunday Adeyemo reminds me of Sir William Wallace (1230-1305) the great Scottish leader & warrior who led an armed rebellion against English rule & who inspired the successful quest for Scottish independence. Even though he fought & defeated the mighty English army..12/
..successfully on several occassioms and in many battles Wallace was evenrially betrayed by the ruling elite of the same Scotland that he sought to liberate. They gave him over to their English oppressors and overlords in return for land and title yet eventually his cause..13/
..still prevailed even though it was after his execution & even though he did not live to see it. Without William Wallace (Braveheart) there would never have been an independent Scottish nation with its own independent Kings & Queens. Without him Scotland would have forever..14/
..remained a vassal state of England
Without the efforts and courage of men like Sunday Igboho, Olayomi Koiki and a few others there will never be an Oduduwa Republic.

Happy New month.

In 1989, when IBB was in power, the founder of the Izala Muslim sect, Sheik Abubakar Gumi, said it would only be over his dead body that another Christian would rule Nigeria. He died 3 years later & one year after that a Christian called Ernest Shonekan became Head of State. 1/

"We must choose our battles wisely & know who our real enemies are. I have disagreed with my friend & brother Gov. Bala Mohammed on several occassions over the years & I do not share his views on a number of issues but to describe him as a terrorist is uncharitable & absurd.1/
..This is a man who stands up for Southerners Middle Belters and Christians as much as he stands up for Northern Muslims. It is fair to say that had it not been for his efforts President Goodluck Jonathan may not have become President after President Yaradua died. 2/
..His role in the Senate at that time in ensuring that the then Vice President Goodluck Jonathan was declared Acting President was exemplary & inspiring. Bala may sometimes say things that many in the South disagree with but his spirit is clean & his mind is pure. 3/

I clearly & categorically condem the violence that we witnessed in the Capitol building in Washington yesterday during the meeting of the Electors. I believe that the election was rigged& Trump was robbed but violence in any shape or form has no place in a democratic setting.1/
..All matters concerning the American Presidency ought to be resolved in a peaceful manner & I am glad that President Donald Trump had the presence of mind to tell the protesters to disperse and go home. As much as I love @realDonaldTrump and believe that he was cheated out..2/
..of the election I will not support any action from his supporters that would disturb the peace, jeopardise life & property or lead to a civil war in America. Those of us that love & believe in him fought a good fight & stood firm, regardless of the odds& the insults, right..3/

It is after midnight Nigerian time & we have just slipped into the 6th day of Jan. 2021. Today is the "D-day" for America & the rest of the world& whatever happens later today will shape the collective fortunes of not just America but also humanity into the foreseeable future.1/
..It is the day in which the destiny of America and the entire world will be determined. It is the day every Trumper has been waiting for for the last few weeks and ever since the sham and 'big steal' of the November 3rd presidential election when Joe Biden was rigged in by...2/
..the Deep state, the proponents of the New World Order, Big Tech, the Fake News Media and the agents of the Illuminati. It is the day when the American Congress and Senate meet jointly with the 'Electors' of each state for a certification of the presidential election. 3/

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

To all those insulting the grief of the bereaved and traumatized by claiming nobody died at the Lekki tollgate massacre, this is video evidence.

I should add that reports suggest that the bodies were collected by the soldiers and disposed of after the massacre. 1/3

...#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.
