I share some reasons for supporting Peter Obi, here. This is to not only reinforce our convictions as Obi’s supporters but also to clarify the enormity of significance that our individual choices carry. See below: ImageImageImageImage
First point continued: ImageImageImageImage
First point concluded: ImageImage
Other points: ImageImageImageImage
Conclusion: ImageImage
In summary, please vote for Peter Obi. I made an analysis criticizing BAT on my Instagram: @mr_possidez. I’ll do well to save it in a highlight.

My view on this may be controversial but I’ll share it: the primary point of prayers as a way to communicate with God or “get to align with him” cannot work or at least cannot be popular, for one simple reason. Hopefully this explanation clarifies my point:
The most common kind of prayer has always been petition. Humans ask for help, intervention, protection, open doors. That isn’t a cultural accident. It’s a psychological necessity. It is the only definition that makes sense given the attributes biblically assigned to God.
If the core purpose of prayer was alignment, understanding or clarity, Christians would pray mostly like Buddhist monks. But they don’t. They pray like petitioners. They pray like people talking to someone who can change things. Which makes sense to me, even logically.

I’ve said this before and I hate to gild the lily, but it’s worth threading this for the sake of younger folks. What makes someone exceptional in thought is not necessarily intelligence. It’s resistance. To think well, you must first refuse to think lazily.
Not everyone is capable of that refusal.
It’s unnatural and even inefficient sometimes. It’s like swimming upstream. But this is where exceptional minds thrive. It’s not just about being “smart,” it’s about refusing to settle for the first story the mind tries to offer.
Most people mistake speed for insight. That is why when their pastors, imams or political leaders speak to them with soundbites and firm declarations, they think that must be wisdom. Clear, wholesome thinking is not easy. It’s a product of continuous resistance.

Think long and hard about who you are and what really anchors you. I promise you, it will serve you in ways you can’t imagine. It took me years to be able to pin it down with words but it gave me immense clarity and i hope this challenges you.
What do you know about yourself that is honest and true, even if it isn’t always easy to say out loud? I’ve been asking myself that question and here’s what I found. A world without me loses a lens. That’s the summary of it.
A world without me loses one more person with the willingness to hold contradiction without collapsing into cynicism. A person with the courage to write pain into clarity, a person with the instinct to dignify nuance even when it is easier to perform certainty.

I sometimes don’t blame people who don’t notice double standards, biases or inconsistent logic. I understand people have to cope. Even broadly, we are all selectively rational and unreasonable and we have irrational belief systems just so we can survive.
Without these belief systems, whether legal, financial, spiritual, reason itself becomes unmoored. Because reason requires premises and humans cannot function without some shared assumptions about reality, worth, and consequence. And these assumptions are almost always irrational.
Religion for example, doesn’t have to be logical. It is not just a metaphysical coping mechanism, it’s a civilizational operating system. It performs the same function as law in society: it provides a shared narrative, a way to organize behavior, assign responsibility, embed morality, and reduce chaos into ritual.

The greatest value of marriage for me, is the bet of friendship and nothing reveals how precious and necessary that is, than adulthood. To have someone who is even willing to listen to you and understand you at all, is nothing short of a miracle.
When you’re young, friendship is abundant. Love feels infinite, you don’t even notice it. You’re surrounded by people who get your jokes, share your references, care about your becoming, because you all share lots of similarities, maybe too many.
But adulthood has a silent filter. It doesn’t announce what it’s taking from you, it just takes. It moves people around gently and subtly, dizzying from one end to the other, until one day you realize the people you could once call without explanation are no longer within reach.

On nepo babies and privileges, this is what makes it complicated: privilege is shaped by desire. Without desire, lack is invisible. Pain always needs a context and privilege, like pain, depends on what you’re reaching for. Some explanation here:
There are things you can’t easily be or do if you’re African. Or black. Especially poor. But these identities only sting when they get in the way of something you deeply want. If that desire isn’t there, the disadvantage doesn’t register. It’s merely conceptual.
It’s just like miracles. Your body performs thousands of miracles each day, like cells healing, heart beating, breath moving and all, they don’t matter. They’re just background noise. The ones you call miracles are the ones your desire or danger makes you notice.
