Wike is going mad. This may be his end. The chessboard is different now than 2023. Tinubu was not president then, Fubara wasn't governor and wike was incumbent governor. If Tinubu cook corruption case for him today, suspend him, buy all his loyalists, heaven will not fall. The truth is if wike were to be either incumbent president or governor today, he can't tolerate what he's dishing out to others... His strategy is not how Tinubu will win 2027, but he wants to be the one Tinubu will negotiate with, not Fubara. A sitting president plus a sitting rivers Governor will beat a Wike, they will prevail over him at the end. He doesn't have same leverage he had with the PDP 5 governors in 2023 again now |
Good. This is 3D chess game. Capturing Maduro is just one move out of many. |
What made you quit wasting time? |
He who the gods wants to destroy, they first make mad. |
Rubbish. It’s only a matter of time. Nigeria will be recolonised by the West again.. because they can, and there’s nothing you can do about it. People love to ask why African countries fail after colonialists leave. Most answers hide behind victim mentality... blah blah blah. What about our military, police, and internal security? Our schools, universities, hospitals, and broken health system? Our roads, power, and basic infrastructure? Were colonialists or so called imperialists still in charge when all of that collapsed? And let’s not even talk about modern technology... AI, robotics, advanced manufacturing. We are light-years behind. Here’s the hard truth: If you can’t succeed as a country, you will become a vassal state to a global power. That’s how the world works. “Sovereign nation,” my #ss. You can hate the West all you want... but the phone in your hand, the internet you’re using, and the antibiotics that stopped you from dying last week… Na dem make am. |
Wike is miscalculating. An incumbent president backed by a sitting governor will always outweigh the influence of a former governor who is now just a minister under that same presidency. Power respects structure, not noise. |
Here's a brief history primer to understand Sheikh Gumi's reputation as a "man of peace." All verifiable... - Son of a man (informally) dubbed the Ayatollah of Nigeria. - Spiritual counselor for the convicted "Underwear Bomber" before attempt to blow up an airliner. - Arrested and held by Saudi Arabia for 6 months for that... until the Nigerian govt begged for his release. - Speaks with and for terrorists, demanding amnesty and government payments. - Barred entry into Saudi Arabia in 2025 and forced to return to Nigeria after attempting a pilgrimage, for being too radical. - After Trump’s Christmas attack, demanded the Nigerian govt turn away from US and work with terror sponsor states instead - Turkey, Pakistan and China. And this is the guy they call a “man of peace”... Mike Arnold on X - https://x.com/i/status/2007123546544189797

SixSeven:I agree. Israel (via Mossad) and the U.S. (via the CIA) have been far more ruthless and bloodier than the groups they label as “jihadist terrorists.” Real progress will only happen when we begin to see ourselves first as Africans... not fragmented into Hausa, Fulani, Yoruba, Igbo, Christian, Muslim, and so on. As things stand, a second recolonization by the West is almost inevitable. ![]() We are divided, technologically behind, and strategically weak.. and the world treats us exactly the way weak, disunited people are treated: without respect. |
SixSeven:I get your point. But it’s still based on probability, not hard facts. What is factual is that there are terrorist groups operating within Nigeria’s borders, and that reality has to be confronted... either by the Nigerian state, or by other means if the state fails. The global order is shifting rapidly. The U.S. and Israel are already targeting Iranian-backed proxies (largely Shiite extremist networks) and Muslim Brotherhood–aligned groups (largely Sunni extremist networks) across different continents. That context is what Netanyahu was referring to when he spoke about opening a new “front,” in Nigeria. This isn’t just political. It’s ideological, strategic, and.. whether people like it or not, spiritual as well. |
Jakumo:Sounds like a smart response. But there are many people living in Nigeria who are better off than some people in the US, UK, or Canada. There are people living well in Nigeria... and living well elsewhere too. Once you rise to a certain level in life, your quality of life becomes largely location-independent, wherever you go. |
True. I always tell my friends: your quality of life is not location-dependent. There are many people in the US, UK, and elsewhere living worse lives than a lot of people here in Nigeria. Same thing the other way around. We don’t hear of school shootings or gun violence in Nigeria like in America. But in terms of economic power and opportunity, USA na baba. |
SixSeven:What's your source of intelligence? Your mind is creating patterns, and you are calling it facts. ![]() |
CyynthiaKiss:The meek shall inherit the earth” is not weakness talk. - Matthew 5:5. Meekness in the Bible means controlled ruthlessness. You must be capable of violence before meekness has meaning. If you can’t fight, you’re not meek, you’re a harmless prey. What many Nigerian Christians display today is suicidal Christianity - love without teeth, peace without the ability to defend it. Turning the other cheek when you can’t protect the first cheek is not faith, it’s foolishness. Only the strong will survive. And only the meek-with-power inherit the earth. US, Israel, China and other world powers understand this. Even the terrorists understand this... But seems Christians don't get this |
kpankpangolo:Hmmnn. Terrorist Sympathizer. Because it's happening in Sudan doesn't make it acceptable in Nigeria.... Or you want us to wait until Nigeria turns to Sudan. |
ISWAP released an image of one of the Christian villages in Adamawa State burning, alongside a statement saying that all Christians in Nigeria are legitimate targets, and they have an opportunity to "spare their blood" by converting to Islam or paying the jizyah tax to ISWAP. https://x.com/i/status/2006739959940788631

Richtaiwo:I learnt it was another car that was over speeding and recklessly overtook them that caused the accident. Let's be mindful. |
Nick Buckley MBE, a British man, saw someone nearly lose his life and chose mockery over empathy. That’s the issue. Strip away politics, strip away race... the timing alone was wrong. A near-death moment is not the place for sarcasm or superiority talk. With a national honour like MBE, people expect maturity and basic human sense. What came out instead was cold, unnecessary, and avoidable. No race and gratitude talks were needed. No country comparison was needed. Just simple human decency.

Sonnobax15:Don't mind him. This happened in a rural part of Nigeria ![]() |
Flangelo12:Spiritual forces no get passport. Oyinbo side get their own too, so that example no cancel wetin I dey talk. My point no be say accident no dey happen normally. I’m saying timing plus pattern matters. AJ don drive countless times... why immediately after a major fight win? RIP to Latz, his best friend, and the other person involved. 🙏 Respect to the dead.. this na just reasoning, not mockery. |
Abeg make we reason am small. Is this the first time AJ and friends are driving in Nigeria? Why accident go happen just after he win fight? This no be to hype fear or conspiracy, but if you look well, bad things dey happen around big wins sometimes. Pressure, energy, enemies, even spiritual energy... all dey real. Check Jake Paul own side too. Some of the people wey fight am, their careers stall, injuries show up, or wahala follow. You fit call am coincidence, but when pattern repeat, e dey make sense to ask questions. Not everything be physical. Some battles start before the ring and continue after the bell. Na just observation. Make everybody learn and guide.

It's well. AJ. Sometimes it's other car at fault. Let's hear full gist |
Time will tell. But Gumi should read the room and clock it! The end of the old order has come. |
I pray for peace all over the world |
It will get to this soon in Nigeria, as Netanyahu sef don talk say "No more Christian genocide in Nigeria" few days ago. Sheik Gumi and other violent fundamentalists need to pipe low. The world order is changing... Even Saudi Arabia na US ally. The terrorists live by the sword, and I have no empathy for them if they die by the sword (and the sword of the USA are modern AI guided precision missiles and drones - they are more powerful, and they don't miss). |
We'll go to world cup and come back with trophy. This I have seen. |
I see the hand of the powerful Amaju Pinnick in this |
He's a longtime friend of Tinubu and Ogun state government. I'm 100% sure he consulted 1 or both of them, and this may be part of the game plan to enthrone him. Just watch.. |
Is tinted car glasses really the cause of insecurity in Nigeria? |
There are bad actors is Nigeria that must first be taken out, before Nigeria can progress. This is what USA should first do. |
Bosun wan fall hand . And he has been really doing well before. |
SpencerForbes:I agree. If you’re a simp, a nice apartment or car won’t save you. But if you’re badboi, playa, sharp, socially intelligent, purpose-driven guy, and not chasing women, your dating quality naturally improves with these things. When your life is properly built, access to girls become easier.. without chasing. No capping. |
SpencerForbes:I never said you should get a car because of a woman. But let’s be honest.. a guy with a car will almost always have a better quality dating experience than a guy without one. That’s just reality. You’re starting to sound like some red-pill guys who act as if intentionality, planning, and structure don’t matter when it comes to dating quality women. This isn’t about chasing sex or dealing with just anybody. I’m talking about women with standards. As I said earlier.. don’t chase women. Instead, build a life that women want to step into. A masculine mindset is one layer; having a car, a decent apartment and so on, is another. |
