You can as well do all your digs and gigs for these old men wey don destroy Nigeria. You are young, so you didn't experience Nigeria when it worked and gave promises of a future these old men later killed.
Nigeria gave me world class education at no cost.
I didn't pay tuition fees in the may primary schools I attended. Ogbe Primary School, Benin; Eke Model Primary Scool, Kwale; Wesley Primary School, Sapele and Dogho Primary School, Warri. All public schools.
Pity parents who pay through hell today
Nor did I pay tuition fees in the secondary school and high school I attended in Ikot Ekpene and Ondo town respectively. In both schools, I was taught by PhD-holders. I remember Dr Sowande of my secondary years who would always ask us to explain "the microcosm of macrocosm"!
Or Dr Opara who would always exclaime: "the mistake of 1914 has come to light. Discuss".
Remember him @AjinehAugustine ?

While in the university, all I paid was N90 for the LL.B degree. It was my accommodation fees. No more.
These old men who ruined Nigeria had their education virtually free. They were fed free, employed while in their final year, got car loans two years into employment. Today, they have kept the universities under lock and key, while their kids enjoy world class education abroad.
The greatest injury they inflict on you is this: tomorrow you cannot compete with their children whether in the public or private sector. Their children will fulfill the eligibility requirements employers will seek. You'll remain their megaphones on social media
Here's the greatest injury they inflict on our country: you with poor education will not have the type of mobility that will see you reaching to the sky. Our country will be loser for it, as the public and private sectors will be dominated by kids of the nouveau rich!
You've a choice to make today. I've made mine and I'm #Yus-fully #Obidient.

Good afternoon from the sanctum sanctorum of the shrine

Some folks are luring youths into ethnic fights, with the senseless and ahistorical claim of the Igbos stoning Awo in Aba in the First Republic. Pa Adebanjo's reference to stoning Awo in the First Republic is ahistorical and untrue. Nothing of such happened in the First Republic
To decontextualise an historical event and place it in the realm of falsehood is dangerous. Pa Adebanjo is guilty of both and youths must scrutinise the claims of these old men suffering from amnesiac conditions imposed by life's winter years.
Why is Adebanjo's claim ahistorical and false? Elections in the first Republic were largely regional contests for the premiership. The three major parties were rooted in their regions as regional parties: NPC, North; NCNC, East; and AG, West.

Shy away from what? I'm not sure you even read my responses. The Anambra panel was taken over by the Senate Panel of Sens Nwagu and Magoro. Obi publicly clarified that aspect. I've asked Soludo to look for that Senate Report and release it. Now, to the subject of pathology
test which I referred to in my tweet, Obi's government set up a team of pathologists to examine the remains. A fact that Obi confirmed in his response to my tweets in 2020. What he didn't confirm was whether or not the results were released to the public.
All I did was to ask Soludo to release the results to the public. Obi is a private citizen and functus officio in that regard.
I must say that I've read statements issued by Intersociety which allude to the fact no real pathology results were got from the examination

What changed? There's a new governor in Anambra State to whom I addressed my tweets to: (1) Release the results of the pathology tests conducted on the dead; (2) Release the findings of Sens Nwagu/Magoro Committee which took over the investigation from Anambra State
3. Release the Report on #Endsars.
Since you've at last taken interest in a subject that I've become the lone voice crying in the wilderness for justice, you can join me. Justice has no borders.
What changed? I prefer someone who described killings in his state as barbaric, took steps to ensure justice for the dead, though frustrated by the center intent on covering, to someone who witnessed stonecold murder in broad daylight, tweeted against it, then deleted his tweet

My friend @pius_adesanmi and I wrote three years apart on Dino and came to the same conclusion. In my piece Keyamo was a collateral victim; but I needed to establish where was coming from, with my first contact with him at Ambrose Alli University Ekpoma in May 1992 ImageImageImageImage
Many activists that some people hail today come from the worst tradition. Some changed on the Road to Damascus and kept to finest principles like Paul. Others hid the worst tradition inside them, only to end up betraying people who trusted them for the right price
The activists you praise today will tomorrow become defenders of the very things they once abhorred.
Even the honest activist of yesterday and today will become tomorrow's betrayer. They'll even crow before dawn breaks.

Be watchful.

Don't be disappointed.

Na so life be.

Two cities - Aba and Nnewi ( add the third, Onitsha) - are instrumental to Nigeria's economic revolution and transformation. I agree with Obi's vision of connecting Aba to Port Harcourt through the "One Road"; and disagree with him on the "One Road".
New vision on economic transformation shouldn't be built on road infrastructure considering the limitations of road transportation. Since the imperative is about manufacturing, the connection between industrial hubs, sources of production, and market should be on rail
All Obi's economic vision has to do is to expand the industrial hubs into new corridors of sources of production and market, using the national railway master plan. For example: a new rail corridor should open to connect Aba, Onitsha and Nnewi to Ports in Warri and Koko

Sports development is not rocket science. I can change the fortune of sports in Nigeria. Just appoint the Minister of Sports in 2023 and see changes in sports policy, education administration & management, funding
On appointment, I'll push for:
1. That the current national sports policy be legislated by the national assembly;
2. Reorganise the ministry of sports - many officials there have no passion for sports;
3. Reorganise national sports festival into a two-tier festivals:
a. Six regional games ( of states in the SS, SE, SW, NC, NW & NE);
b. National games ( of participating champions of the 6 regional games)
