Fiscus105:You need to go back to the 90s to understand the connection. Them don know themselves tey tey https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oiA0gd1B3c?si=8xkniCH0lbWliIbU Press Release President Bola Tinubu has paid a special tribute to Babajide Kolade-Otitoju, a multiple award-winning investigative journalist, on his 60th birthday on March 28, 2026. The President highlights Otitoju’s contributions to journalism and Nigeria, saluting him for his citizen-oriented journalism, professionalism, integrity, courage, and for always speaking truth to power. Otitoju, a prince of Ekirin Adde in Kogi State, has vast experience in both print and electronic media. He began his career with the Democrat newspaper in Kaduna from 1991 to December 1992. Then he joined TheNews Group as a pioneer staff member in February 1993, reporting from Kano as the state correspondent. In Kano, Otitoju made a name for himself when he defied threats and reported the religious-motivated killing of a Nigerian. He distinguished himself at TheNEWS Organisation and went on to edit and later The NEWS magazine before joining TVC. Otitoju has an acute memory, a characteristic of a History graduate from the University of Ilorin. He is also a polemicist and songwriter, and at present the Director of News of Television Continental and anchor of the celebrated current affairs and discussion programme of the station-“Journalists Hangout”. President Tinubu remarks, “Babajide Otitoju stands out as a journalist of great reckoning and distinction. He speaks truth to power without caring whose ox is gored. “What is also particularly remarkable about him is his vast journalism experience and knowledge across diverse disciplines, sectors, regions and cultures. “He brings to the Journalists Hangout programme of TVC rich and informed perspectives and analysis that one can hardly ignore. His contributions to journalism, particularly the growth and development of TVC, are also worthy of mention. “I congratulate Otitoju on attaining this milestone age of 60. I commend him for his services to his profession and Nigeria. I wish him many more years and a continued life of impact.” Bayo Onanuga Special Adviser to the President, (Information & Strategy) March 28, 2026 ☝️ Na wetin una Presidency write be that but it's a taboo if others choose theirs.

Our problem is that we like to celebrate nonsense. And by nonsense I mean, we celebrate material things, things that don't have value, no worth but only craving validation because it is not authentic. The elders used to say that a man who does not know where the rain began to beat him cannot know where he dried his body. Today, we no longer look at a man’s character, we only look at the size of his harvest, even if he stole the yams. We have turned our backs on the quiet truth of our ancestors to dance to the loud drums of foolish men. Of course, when a society begins to crown jesters and mock the honest farmer, the roof is already falling on the house. That's why they once said when a thief tells you to gotocourt, his brother is the judge. It means the system is fixed, and a dishonest person is only acting bold because they control or have an unfair advantage in the system meant to judge them. They control the system, they are the king of boys If we crush the seed of integrity just to celebrate the chaff, what will our children eat when the famine of character arrives? Na there we de so. Ajekun iya ti e je ehn, Davido and SDM never got sing am well yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asADZnQpWaw This message is not about the music or the musician 😕

MadPolitician:They should go and rest. Atiku being in Dubai is not by mistake. There is something they are not telling us and we may only know when he gets there. Atiku's problem is that he was once there. That hustle is not there and he still thinks people respect him as former VP, that's why he believes in sending delegates or representatives to speak for him. I don't want us to get an Atiku as President and when he gets there, we'll now find out why he often stays in Dubai. Buhari wasted our money in London hospitals, Tinubu visits France, we act like we didn't see Yar'Adua and how some cabal became president on his behalf, signing documents on his behalf. We never learn, and the same thing happened when Buhari was away. We need a hands-on president! |
AMINDA:Hmmm This is deep. Just as Tinubu also did the same to Buhari. What goes around... |
AMINDA:This is a very reckless statement from a serving minister. I know he says reckless things but they are not helping Tinubu's cause with these statements. They are making more enemies for him. I don't know if this is not deliberate sabotage. |
Like a Wike, like a Bwala. The stupid mistake APC is making is thinking that because Obi is Tinubu's opponent, they will do things to pepper Obidients or any critic, forgetting that even opposition are Nigerians too. Focus on what you have to offer, leave the noise. Not everything needs to be politics but what can I say? You can't give what you don't have. PDP was once here. Racoon:He was initially making some sense until I read this part What it means is that the power of a sitting governor is not something you can joke around with. That’s the message that was sent, actually, in Osun They have no regard for the electorate, including the winner, Jackson, who should have thanked Osun people for their support and leave it at that but kept on mentioning the President, man who only cares about what he can get. They say it's politics, they say it's strategy but they think people are dumb. Let's see how 2027 will go and if his mandate shall stand. He thinks he can command Osun people like that. He never see anything A. Aliyu As a highly influential Northern governor and chairman of the Northern Governors' Forum, Aliyu pledged that Niger State's political machinery would deliver the state to PDP's incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan. He openly campaigned under the assumption that his executive dominance would dictate the people's votes. The electorate did not follow his direction, resulting in one of the most lopsided defeats for an incumbent establishment in Nigerian history. Goodluck Jonathan was decisively rejected in Niger State, pulling only 149,222 votes. The opposition candidate, Muhammadu Buhari (APC), swept the state with a staggering 657,678 votes. Governor Aliyu also lost his own personal bid to transition to the Senate, losing the Niger East Senatorial district election to APC's David Umaru. B. Elrufai As an incredibly powerful founding member of the APC and a fierce loyalist, Governor El-Rufai went all out to campaign for Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Because the APC held full executive power and machinery in Kaduna, it was considered a guaranteed win for the party. Despite El-Rufai's tight control over the state, the electorate did not follow his direction. The state rejected Tinubu, and the PDP's Atiku Abubakar swept Kaduna State with 554,360 votes. Where is Elrufai today? C. What happened to Sanwoolu or Ganduje or even Okowa who was actually on the ballot as the Vice- Presidential candidate for the PDP. He and his party structures confidently expected Delta State to vote entirely for the PDP ticket. Even with the sitting governor being on the national ticket, Delta State voters ignored his candidacy. The Labour Party swept Delta State with 341,866 votes, entirely rejecting the sitting governor's regional influence. Or should we talk about Isa Yuguda and Bauchi and how Buhari beat PDP like pulp. These people are foolish to realize that Governors do not own the thumbs of their voters. Even Wike is being tolerated but let him try what he did again and see if the people will do like mumu again by changing their votes. Fact: in the 2023 presidential election alone, 20 sitting governors lost their states to opposing presidential candidates because the electorate chose to ignore their governors' preferences |
Bwala is beginning to mock his name Baa hahaha Mr. President is a son of Osun State, and I hereby reaffirm my earlier endorsement of him for a second term in the 2027 presidential election,” he said.In Yoruba tradition, a son’s true origin is always tied to his father’s lineage through a deep concept known as Ìbílẹ̀, which means native root or origin. Even if a son is born and raised in his mother's town, custom dictates that he legally and spiritually belongs to the hometown and ancestral house of his father. A son is never just from a city, but rather from a specific Agboólé, which is the historical family compound where his grandfathers lived, held land, and were buried. Traditional elders always look at a person as a link in a long generational chain called Ìran, and it is this paternal bloodline that grants a son his birthright to inherit family land, hold local chieftaincy titles, or contest for a royal throne. Ultimately, the true source of where a son comes from is found in his Oríkì Orílẹ̀, the ancient praise poetry of his clan that details the hills, rivers, and historic victories of his father's true home. The Tinubus are known to be from Lagos, or more specifically, from Egbaland not Osun State. You better stop this thing so you don't throw more light on the discrepancy of your candidate's true identity. You can't be from 2 places at the same time. Show us the Tinubu lineage in Osun State, let's check something. Bwala, I challenge you to show us the igi Ìran of The Tinubus in Osun State, I wan see the Ìdílé. Make you no start something you no go wan torchlight. |

You dint need to tell us Isaac. The evidence is clear. |

Shikena:When the crowd is more than the police, what does the police do? Do people respect authorities or haven't you seen where police officers remove their uniform to avoid being targeted? Whose duty is to dispense the crowd? Why are those who dispense wrong justice never rebuked? Yes the solution is education and enlightenment but why are the right things not done? I don't support JJ but I'm just saying reality. Look at us after the Aluu4, look at that guy that was recently trending that held a knife because he knew they would JJ him. |
I misread the headline. I read Egypt Coach Hossam Hassan Collapses While Celebrating His 2 Wives During A Fight Please Observe ![]() Now that he has gone, their life will have survivors guilt in it. Man was a peacemaker but a casualty of war. What a shame. I hope the children learn from this. ☝️ I hope they see what I did there. |
Shikena:Did you read the case I highlighted there or you just rushed to respond? In that case, it's not the people themselves, it's his own people, the police who dropped the ball. She didn't deserve to die but the police knew why they released her just the way they used to ignore rape cases. Read the news properly and see that nothing Mr Disu said is new. His own staff have been culpable and if the idea in people's mind is that the police will not dispense justice as it should, they will keep doing JJ. Please read to understand not respond immediately. |
DrAda this may be the post. Thanks for reading or not reading ![]() SixSeven: |
You can only declare war but can you win it? It's like Boko Haram where the people you are fighting have an ideology. Kill the people but the ideology is still there. If the people do not believe the justice system, sorry is your name. You can't win any war. Was it not the same Police where a victim of JJ ran to for protection and police dismissed her for the mob to kill her because they didn't want them to descend on them? Mr Disu, in June 2026, a 35-year-old mother of four named Ummulkhairi Aliyu was falsely accused of child kidnapping while asking for directions in Maraban Jos, Kaduna State. She was initially taken into a local police station for her safety, but an angry crowd quickly besieged the building demanding her release. Eyewitnesses and her family alleged that the officers on duty actively handed her over to the mob to protect themselves and the facility. While the Kaduna State Police Command claimed their station was instead violently overpowered by an uncontrollable riot, the mob ultimately dragged her away, beat her, and burned her alive. Following widespread nationwide outrage, Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani ordered a formal probe into the police personnel on duty, and over 40 civilian suspects have since been charged with culpable homicide. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOmMw0cqiRU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gdmh7ud6xUM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PKeVNI2zdE People do not trust the justice system and the NPF is a part of that justice system but once people see that the people won't get justice when they hand them over to the police, I'm sorry, JJ will go on. |
DrAda:It baffles you? It's still insecurity. The craving to be validated, to be accepted and to wash the dirty money. Our conscience is greater than we think. But it baffles you as it baffles me. Why? It's not just thieves who behave like this. In Nigeria, we have an identity crisis. I have been posting about it recently. Look at all he got - toys! No company, no product, no factory. Wealth without enterprise can never be enterprising. What he does is what the politicians do. When they steal, they don't know what to do. It kills the brain. Whatever you don't work for and steal, the brain cannot start working automatically. That's why they encourage us to work, because there is a reward that comes with working and knowing what you worked for and where it got you. Don't mind my long post. I will leave it here for others to read. It's this topic of money and the thief that made me search for a post I once made about this concept but I still can't find it. Repost 👇 This is a mindset thing. Nigerians are so rich that the only thing they can boast of or talk about is money. They are so poor. SixSeven:Last week, there was a topic about late Mr Adeosun and I complained about the writeups only mentioning Kemi's name and to give the man his respects. Guess what one of them said? FriendsAndFans:You cannot have quality conversations with Nigerians without them thinking they are better than you because of material things. That's why this beggy beggy will not stop. It's a thing of the mind. We are very oppressive as a people. Repost 👇 Money is everything. Okay find out. Re: Anybody Telling You Money Isn’t Important Has Probably Never Really Suffered by SixSeven: 10:32am On May 16* Repost👇 The OP says your mind will be at peace when you have money. You think Biggie's mo money, mo problems is a joke? He also says poverty will be making your heart do somehow. I don't think you've heard about contentment. Contentment is a powerful mindset that shields you from the endless cycle of chasing external validation or wealth. It shifts your focus from what you lack to appreciating what is right in front of you. A lot of Nigerians lack it, that's why they keep chasing the mullah and they see the man who is relaxed as muuugu. Travel and see those who are poorer than you in your paper money but richer than you in issues of life. It is the current structure of Nigeria that makes you think once you have money, you can solve your problems instead of us to think like a society. Look at our rich people, if you have a health emergency, don't you think before you jet out of the country to go to one foreign hospital, you will die? Or do you think even if you have the best Nigerian doctors with you, it will keep you alive while they are carrying your body upandan in the plane instead of you to have accessed a good quality hospital? Didn't you see the tomfooooolery of our elites during covid19 or how they keep making the same mistakes by spending so much money abroad when God has blessed our environment with free gifts but they refused to appreciate it and improve on it? Nigeria is a very classist and oppressive society so I just see people with their insecurities projected on others they think they are above. That's why they system may never work because the money helps them feel at least that all animals aren't equal. DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM 🤡 https://x.com/i/status/2050533660697223444 If money is the only thing you have, you are truly poor.When you understand the concept of money, you'll know why it is not everything. It is good in our current construct of life but only experience can teach you certain things. Maybe you have forgotten that your forefathers did not live with this current concept of paper money. Or the civil war did not teach you a lesson on how people who stored paper suddenly became poor? The current construct of society is deceiving you so much that you think to acquire all the gold in this world is everything but when you get it, you'll then learn the lessons of life. Anyway this conversation is more philosophical, experience is the best teacher. Enjoy your money. You don't teach a man how to enjoy his money. We came to this world with nothing, fought for everything, only to leave the things we fought for behind Contentment is king of all situationsRepost 2👇 Northsouth:Money is good o but let me humor you a bit. You are planning for your children in Naira but they decide to pursue their future in Dhiram or Australia pound or let's say in 2065, the Sudanese pound is more than the British pound and your child goes there. Your child will not value all your hard work. What about children who do well than anyone in their generation has ever done?The greatest gift to inherit from parents is not financial, but emotional and intangible, including unconditional love, presence, wisdom, and strong values. These lasting legacies shape a child's confidence and character, often considered more valuable than material wealth. Other key inheritances include a good reputation and a well-planned estate. Your plan is in estate but know that anything can happen to it. Give your children intangible assets when you are available. During the Nigerian Civil War, the government made millionaires poor with a policy they passed. Some people have fled a country as rich people only to start their lives in a new country as refugees. We tend to plan for life in the current image we have of it without realizing that we do not control the future we have a vision of ![]() https://www.tiktok.com/video/7509956901187194118 Nobody serves a local dog with a golden plate, it will end up messing up the plate. I remember someone once said if you have children and none of them can say "my father used to say, my father said this, my father used to do this", then you have not lived yet. Don't think I am a pessimist because generational wealth exists but I just want you to look at the larger picture. What are you living for? Repost 3 👇 Northsouth:That was what Africa was built on. Wetin dem call that thing again, self substicence or whatever the name is. To your question, let me leave you with quotes. Do I live by the? Yes. Why? Because I understand I need to survive but when I think about the chain of life, I remember that picture where we come with nothing, they brainwash us with everything, then leave us with nothing. I also watch this guy and I have found out that after all is done, we still go back to basics. The things we acquire, we don't get happiness from them but somehow they convince us that those things make us happy ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9PDi8asCEM I won't let society tell me what it takes to make me happy when after studies of the sages, I have found that what makes us happy starts with self. And nobody can take that away from me. Even the people who make life terrible and worse won't steal that from me. I cannot control them, I can control my reaction and action ![]()

MamaFryo:Greenery will not be used as example. They think everything is all about buildings. Then they go to Europe to watch old buildings built centuries ago. The person who thinks development is all about high rise buildings needs more education. |
He even got E8 in Government. Wow To say that he got C in maths but hypocritical Nigerians found all manners of excuse for him on why he could not pronounce the budget figures 🤡 Okay na, English too is D7 Congratulations to the people of Edo. Edo no de carry last. At least una get result, some people no get WAEC certificate. |
erad:You read my mind on this topic. I think the children of this generation have suffered from parents who want to take ownership of their childhood instead of protecting their childhood as parents. What a shame. https://www.tiktok.com/video/7553580085387857154 SixSeven:

clintino700:That's the only reason why he is still in Tinubu's government but it's a mockery of Tinubu himself who does not mind the characters with him as long as he gets what he wants. The man is a selfish man when it comes to his ambition and he will dine with friends and enemies as long as they can give him what he wants. I am happy the so-called democrat is demystifying himself on the national stage all in the name of power.

Wike is confirming what we already knew. SixSeven:The Tinubus are from Lagos but somehow this Tinubu is from Osun State and his nephew is Oyetola. Make it make sense. |

iamjavadem:Yes Nigerians aren't worth it but you can't control people's madness. The girl who confronted the Naval Ratings in 2008 got to her tipping point when they pulled off her clothes. You can't tell when things will just click for someone. How come these same people automatically behave themselves once they leave the country? It means they know what they are doing. |
ajalawole:Someone did this in 2008 to a Naval officer and got a court judgment in her favor. For all the abuses men throw on women here, I think the men are cowards for tolerating bad behavior instead of leading by good example (if they condemn this action) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtAQ0PRPQ8I Naval Officers Beat Up A Lady And Stripped Her - Watch Video - Politics - Nairaland https://www.nairaland.com/191814/naval-officers-beat-up-lady On November 3, 2008, Ms. Okere was driving in heavy traffic when the armed convoy of Rear- Admiral Harry Arogundade attempted to pass. Because she did not pull off the road quickly enough, the naval ratings guarding the Admiral became aggressive. The naval ratings dragged Ms. Okere out of her car, beat her with whips, and violently stripped off her blouse in broad daylight, leaving her exposed from the waist up. Workers in nearby commercial buildings filmed the entire assault from their office windows. The footage was broadcast by Channels TV and shared widely online, sparking nationwide outrage against military impunity |
She looks more beautiful for doing a beautiful thing. If each one of us can see the beauty in good behaviour, we will keep these dirty actions away from public space. My Mercedes is bigger than yours. Nigerians and their identity crisis. |
cr7lomo:It's because too many people joined in. That's the problem with Nigerians. Even though I don't like the act, the person who gained fame did it by finding an opportunity through his phone. I can call that correspondence in journalism. He even documented them but the moment they became too many, of course they will spoil it. One woman had been taking videos in UK buses for years, the moment brands endorsed her, Nigerians all carried camera to copy. It's very irritating. Zero creativity, just copy everything.
|
Una try. Welcome to the party. Those so-called elites throwing money at them and wanting to be seen are not any better in conduct. They wanted the fame. Car spotter indeed. A handful of Nigerians have identity crisis, they just don't know yet.
|
inwahiwe:He fumbled with that ticket. I thought he would take advantage of that platform to boost his performance but sometimes some people are better working for someone else. If PDP was the PDP of old, he wouldn't have had that chance yet he wasted it. |
