On Friday, July 19th, I will be celebrating my 63rd birthday. As usual, it is a time for personal reflection and thanksgiving to Almighty God, who has graciously granted me life, good health, and the opportunity to contribute to the betterment of humanity.

I am humbled by the numerous well-wishers, both locally and internationally, who have already begun sending birthday wishes and organizing events in my honour.

My appeal to my well-wishers and supporters, particularly in Nigeria and Africa, is to use this occasion to fervently pray for our nation and respective countries. Let us present ourselves, as political leaders, to God, so that He may touch our hearts to make sacrifices, utilize public resources for the greater good, and prioritize the needs of the poor and marginalized. Let us also provide better opportunities for our youth to thrive. To those organizing events and spending funds in celebration of my birthday, I kindly request that you redirect those resources towards supporting the needy, particularly those in hospitals and schools. Your contributions can help pay medical bills and school fees for the less privileged.

I also appeal that all gifts intended for my birthday be donated to care homes, schools, and hospitals, which will greatly benefit from your generosity. I have therefore personally, redirected the resources I would have used for celebrations towards supporting critical areas such as health, education, and poverty alleviation. I firmly believe that through these sacrifices, God Almighty will grant your heartfelt wishes for me and answer our prayers. Thank you for your kind thoughts and prayers.

I urge you all to remain faithful to Nigeria, our beloved country, and your respective nations.

May God Almighty protect, bless, and prosper you and your families, and may He bless our dear nation. -PO

Let this man rest. He lost the election. Give him time to recover and recoup

Tinubu this...Buhari that...obi those....

Who cares. Nobody sane cares about petty flesh and bone playing games with human lives and survival hood.

A handful of people ruling over 200 million Nigerians.
Hold on a minute... doesn't that sound shocking to you all one bit. The concept of government that serves just itself in broad daylight and boldness!!

Kanji dam has been built already. And it supplies power right ...and I'm still being made to pay for light in my house. It's not like there's drought or the kanji dam had a fault or something.
If kanji dam had fault, then I'd feel justified to pay nepa bill for its repairs. But any fault so far?
The water turns the turbines on and on even as I'm typing this post....

So why am I paying an amount called nepa bill stipulated by someone who uses the money to send his or her children abroad to school while I languish here in Nigeria??


Think people!!!

Any news that doesn't move Nigeria forward at this time shouldn't even be news at all.

On Nairaland front Page, the whole of Nairaland would be lucky if I find just 5 news worth my time to click on. It's that pathetic. Go to front Page and observe for yourself. Either someone died...or asked for ransom...or food prices go up based on data from the silliest of companies ever.....or flavor dad died...like you really care about flavor to post his dad death on front Page for Nairalanders to read. Superb news reporting by the way. Keep it up


I won't be surprised if this one makes front Page.

The best way to be focused is to know WHAT NOT to focus on.
Same way as to be happy. Stopping what makes you sad first, Instead of doing more happier things

There's nothing important about any political office holder birthday in Nigeria.
It should be a day of sadness where they're dressed in black and mourning cus there's nothing to celebrate.
Even the price food and cake to use celebrate have all gone up. So why the happy birthday wishes like you even mean it. You don't so better stop deceiving yourself. You only care for people as humans like yourself and wish the best for them... doesn't mean you'll open your doors for armed robbers at night if they knocked quietly and respectfully on your door

They've done nothing tangible for Nigeria. Collectively they've all failed.

Today Nigeria mourns.

Shikini:
This is my own president.
The thief in Aso Rock is not my president

Happy Birthday, sir!

Even your fellow Igbos have advised you to quit your delusions.
