ENDSARS LEKKI TOLL GATE: NEVER FORGET OCTOBER 20, 2020
Today, October 20, 2026, marks the sixth anniversary of the Lekki Toll Gate shootings, a painful reminder of the price Nigerian youths paid in their demand for a better country.
On that fateful night, peaceful #EndSARS protesters were met with gunfire. Lives were lost, many were injured, and the nation was left with questions about justice, accountability, and the sanctity of human life.
We must never forget. We must never normalise injustice.
As we remember the victims, I reaffirm my belief that a New Nigeria is possible—a country where citizens are protected, not brutalised; where young people are heard, not silenced; and where government power is exercised with responsibility and respect for human rights.
Nigeria must become a nation where no citizen is punished for demanding good governance and a better future.
May the souls of the departed continue to rest in peace. May their sacrifice strengthen our resolve to build a Nigeria where this tragedy will never be repeated.
A New Nigeria is POssible. A Nigeria where every life matters. -PO

Nigeria In Focus: At The Roundtable in Paris, France
Today, I participated in a roundtable discussion at the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR) office in Paris, France.
The dialogue brought together policymakers, diplomats, development experts, representatives of international organisations, and members of the international media to discuss Nigeria’s future and its role in an increasingly interconnected world.
Our discussions focused on development cooperation and the need to strengthen bilateral partnerships that can accelerate economic growth, improve the lives of our people, create productive opportunities, and support sustainable national development.
I reiterated my firm belief that Nigeria possesses the human and natural resources required to become a united, secure, prosperous, and globally competitive nation. What we need is competent, accountable, and compassionate leadership that prioritises investment in people, education, healthcare, productive enterprise, the rule of law, and strong institutions over a politics of consumption.
Nigeria’s future is bright, but realising its promise requires deliberate choices. We must move from consumption to production, from poverty to prosperity, and from wasted potential to shared progress.
Through good governance, fiscal responsibility, and mutually beneficial international partnerships, we can build an economy that works for all Nigerians and restore our nation’s rightful standing in the comity of nations.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Education Is the Foundation of a New Nigeria
Education remains the most important tool for development and nation-building. It has been proven that the more educated a nation is, the better it develops. It has also been proven that the developing and developed nations of today are those that have invested in education, healthcare and pulling people out of poverty.
Nigeria’s increasing poverty remains a consequence of not investing adequately in critical areas of development, especially education.
Today, while observing the International Day of Rural Women, I visited Sheda and Sheda Galadima, in Kwali Area Council of FCT, where I was surprised to see a huge number of school-age children in the market environs on a school day.
In my conversation with the children, I was deeply shocked to learn that they had been at home for over two weeks due to the teachers’ strike.
So, while we are busy inaugurating campaign councils with pomp and pageantry and declaring economic miracles, our young children of school age are loitering in the streets because of a strike, in a nation with already over 18 million out-of-school children.
It is time to put our children and the future of our country back at the centre of governance and government decisions. Under our leadership, investment in health and education, as well as pulling people out of poverty, will be our priorities.
The relevant authorities should immediately ensure that our children in public schools return to school in the FCT.
A New Nigeria is POssible, and Nigeria will be OK. -PO

Nigerians Must Not Be Abandoned to Disaster Risks
As the global community observes the International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction today, we must acknowledge that millions of Nigerians confront not only natural hazards but also avoidable crises resulting from governance failures.
Throughout the country, citizens face flooding, insecurity, displacement, hunger, malnutrition, deteriorating infrastructure, increasing poverty, and the loss of livelihoods. Inadequate planning, fragile institutions, insufficient emergency preparedness, and the failure to place citizens’ welfare first have made everyday existence a disaster for many people.
Although disasters cannot always be prevented, their effects can be limited through accountable leadership, early warning mechanisms, responsible land-use planning, durable infrastructure, efficient emergency services, and prompt humanitarian assistance. When governments fail to identify risks in advance or respond effectively to emergencies, the most vulnerable citizens bear the greatest burden.
The success of governance should be judged not by revenue totals, economic indicators, or official ceremonies but by the people’s safety, dignity, and quality of life. No government can credibly claim progress while citizens are displaced by floods, abducted by criminals, forced into hunger, or left without protection from predictable threats.
I urge governments at every level to pursue a people-focused approach to reducing disaster risks by investing in prevention, enhancing emergency response, ensuring accountability in the administration of disaster funds, and delivering prompt relief and lasting rehabilitation to affected communities.
Nigeria must not accept avoidable suffering as normal. Protecting the safety, security, and welfare of our people is a core responsibility of government. We must create a nation in which sound governance limits risks, safeguards lives, and affords every citizen a fair opportunity to live in safety and dignity.
Nigerians thoroughly insulated from the most severe effects of disasters is OK and POssible. -PO

According to the Federal Government, the discount will be obtainable at NNPC Retail petrol stations, which are estimated to be about 900 stations. With the total number of petrol stations in Nigeria estimated at about 24,000, it means that the discount will be applicable in less than 4% of our petrol stations with priority to public transport operators. Using our population of about 243 million people implies one NNPC Retail petrol station to about 243,000 Nigerians assuming that the stations are evenly distributed across Nigeria which is not the case. Imagine 243,000 Nigerians struggling for a N66.00/per litre discount in each of the NNPC petrol stations. This is certainly not how to govern a richly blessed and endowed nation!
While I prepare to provide a more detailed explanation on my current stand on subsidy and a policy roadmap on fair, transparent and affordable pricing of petroleum products, let me state that research on our current revenue and revenue potential in a productive Nigeria under an incorrupt, transparent and competent government which my leadership will enthrone affirms my position that subsidy should be restored to Nigerians not only on petrol but also in agriculture, health, education and infrastructure.
But, beyond subsidy, it is important that we have a leadership that is focused on policies that drastically reduce the cost of living through welfare-enhancing pricing policy and honest administration of same.
It is clear that President Tinubu’s October 1 policy announcement is neither of that. It is plain political optics masked as policy. Nigerians are tired of those gimmicks. It is time for real change.

I spotted the Chairman of Lagos Agberos's car on one of Lagos’ roads, and I was amazed by the wealth and power he wields!
Alhaji Mustapha Adekunle, popularly called “Sego,” rides in a brand-new GLE 350 with an escort. His plate number carries his name, picture, and “official” title.
If I hadn't seen his plate number, given how they cleared the traffic for him, I would have thought he was a senior government official.
How he navigated into different lanes with dangerous speed and zoomed off arrogantly when the traffic cleared proved the power he wields. No one dared overtake his convoy.
And as he disappeared into the far distance, with his ghastly troubles, a painful thought settled in my troubled mind and stayed for several minutes. It dawned on me that these are the people who decide our future.
I have to ask, can a Professor in Nigeria today, who has dedicated over 20 years of his life contributing immensely to Nigeria’s tertiary institutions, afford Mr Sego’s car? Can a teacher in any Nigerian school ever afford a quarter of the amount the car was bought for, even if they teach for 30 years?
Then the painful reality hit me - Nigeria is a broken, dysfunctional society that rewards “antigens.” How can Nigeria thrive when it generously rewards Agberos (thugs) over its most creative, saving brains in critical sectors such as medical, academic, law, security, etc?
Nigeria’s dysfunctional society can only favour people like “Sego,” whom I consider the machinery the political elite use to sustain the status quo. Think a little genuinely, and you'd see that this is the reality across Nigeria.
Rascality rules and rewards the rascal, the illegal, the impune, the thug. The very opposite is what hard-working creative minds in our critical sectors get.
MC Oluomo can employ tens of Nigerian Professors and feed them, easily. Tompolo earns more money than some states make from IGR and more money than can pay thousands of Nigerian military officers dedicating their lives to protecting Nigeria and defending her territorial integrity.
Asari Dokubo is stupendously rich for doing nothing other than constituting a nuisance on camera now and then. Tony Kabaka (born Tony Adun) is among the richest men in Edo State, far more than the celebrated Professor Ambrose Folorunsho Alli can ever imagine, even in his next life.
Take it further; repentant” Boko Haram members get more allocation from the Borno State government than some of the state’s critical sectors. Nigeria’s “officeless” First Lady gets more federal allocation than key ministries like Health. And the list of rascality goes on!
When one sincerely reflects on these issues, one will find that these men have one thing in common - zero productive value! Their jobs add little or zero value to the country. Without them, the society will function even better! What this proves is that we run a ruinous dysfunctional system that can ONLY lead us to destruction.
While I congratulate Mr Sego on the large lifestyle the gods of impunity have blessed him with, I only wish that these gods can reward our productive, creative, brains as much as they do for Mr Sego and his like, if not much more.✍️

Vote Peter Obi for President at the presidential polls in 2027 for the complete Elimination of IDP Camps & return of citizens to their ancestral lands all over the country; an estimated 3.7million Nigerians live in IDP camps nationwide in harrowing conditions not fit for humans.
With Peter Obi of the NDC as President the IDP camps menace will end.

DELTA STATE CAN BE BETTER, AND WE MUST BEGIN TO THINK BEYOND TEMPORARY EMPOWERMENT.
During my consultation visit to Uvwie constituency, my message remained the same: Delta State can be better, and our people deserve an environment where they can genuinely succeed.
I have always asked myself, how do we give a young man a POS device, give a woman a small amount of money, and convince ourselves that we have empowered them when the environment they live in makes it difficult for their businesses to survive?
For me, real empowerment goes beyond what we give people today. It is about what we build around them so that they can continue to succeed tomorrow.
We need an enabling environment where businesses can grow, where our young people can find meaningful employment, where entrepreneurs have access to opportunities, and where hard work can genuinely translate into a better life.
These are the conversations we must continue to have across Delta State. Our people have the talent, the determination, and the willingness to work. What they need is a system that gives them a fair opportunity to succeed.
Our message remains the same, let us build a Delta State where people do not have to depend on politicians to survive, but where opportunities exist for everyone to thrive.

PRESS STATEMENT
APC AND TINUBU'S 30-DAY PETROL DISCOUNT IS TOKENISM AND DECEIT
The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has noted the breaking news by the Federal Government announcing a 30-day discount on petrol through NNPC stations.
According to the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr. Taiwo Oyedele, _"We are offering a discount on petrol dispensed by NNPC Limited for the next 30 days in the first instance, with priority for public transporters nationwide. So, it's not a subsidy. The government is just saying we sell to you at cost."
This is nothing but tokenism and a Greek gift from a government that whimsically removed fuel subsidy without proper consideration, consultation, or cushions for Nigerians.
Nigerians cannot be deceived.
What happens to the millions of Nigerians who lost their jobs and whose businesses collapsed as a result of the callous and poorly planned removal of subsidy? What about those who lost their lives in poorly equipped government hospitals that have now become mortuaries?
It is clear that President Bola Tinubu and the APC government are desperate, and Nigerians must not be deceived. Emilokanomics has failed woefully.
The attempt to reintroduce petrol subsidy through the backdoor is not only mischievous but a sign of a government in free fall, ready to clutch at anything to survive.
Even the bogus promise to dispense discounted fuel at designated NNPC retail outlets is not pragmatic. How many such outlets exist in Nigeria to serve over 200 million Nigerians?
Is this not the recipe for another stampede that could have many more Nigerians trampled to death at the filling stations?
Several questions beg for answers, but the only answer staring Nigerians in the face is that the economy is in a tailspin and at a tipping point. The APC has shown itself glaringly incapable of rescuing the country from imminent collapse.
But hope is on the way.
His Excellency Peter Obi, under the NDC, will put Nigeria back on the right track. A New Nigeria is POssible with Obi.
In a few months, specifically on 16th January, 2027, Nigerians should come out en masse and vote for Peter Obi and all other NDC candidates to vote out the most clueless and rudderless government in the history of Nigeria.

Update: Joel Omosere Agho, aka Mr Common Sense replies Asari Dokubo.
“Asari Dokubo over the years we’ve left you people to do whatever you like. You agitated and started Niger Delta militant to address oil resource control, poverty, degradation, under development and political marginalization. Now you are in governance with influence to do and undo. Incase you missed the question, I want you to tell us what has changed in the Niger Delta, what have you people done? A new militant group is rising, we may not have guns or be in the creeks, but we will ask questions. I ask you, what has changed?”
Asari Dokubo is trending because he revealed that Olu of Warri and Osahon Idahosa are being paid ₦2.7trn monthly for oil pipeline security, higher than Tompolo.
While Billionaire, Arthur Eze and Orji Uzor Kalu are also beneficiaries.
So Why is Asari blowing hot? Well.. He is reacting to Joel Omosere Agho, aka. Mr Common Sense’s criticism of the Niger delta militant leaders incl. Tompolo and Asari Dokubo.
Omosere recently called them out saying, Tompolo and Asari started as freedom fighters against the government system in the 2000’s.
They won and now get paid billions in contracts to manage and protect the facilities. But now in 2026, they’ve become politicians with access to the government.
Yet the Niger Delta remains degraded, underdeveloped and poor, exactly how it was in the 2000’s when they started their militant movement, which was to change these exact things, so he need answers.
This is the question Asari furiously didn’t answer, but instead went through an ethnic route, as the question provoked him.
Asari Dokubo argued that, Omosere left his own tribesmen Olu of Warri and Osahon who are Benin and Itsekiri, earning more from the contracts, to challenge him and Tompolo who earns way lower.
Apparently, Asari finds it insulting that someone from Itsekiri, Benin or Ilaje will speak about the Niger Delta creek business. He believes they’re outsiders who don’t deserve to earn from their hardwork and sacrifice.
As right from time, it used to be only Igbo, Yoruba and Israelis getting pipeline contracts in the Niger Delta, until Diezani came in and they all fought for their right, that got him accused of treason and arrested 73 times under Obasanjo Administration.
Yet all the times during that fight, the Ilaje, Benin, Itsekiri people did not join them. After they won the battle, they too now benefit even more from their fight, which he has tolerated.
Therefore, Omosere should redirect his question to his own people, and the outsiders like Authur Eze and Orji Uzor Kalu who are making the main money from the business, not him or Tompolo.
Omosere has now replied, asking the question again and demanding answer, he says because Asari Dokubo did not answer the question, but this is a good start.
Public records truly show that the Federal Government awarded major pipeline surveillance contracts to firms including;
Tompolo’s Tantita Security Services, Maton Engineering and Pipeline Infrastructure Nigeria Limited (PINL), with reports previously putting Tantita’s contract at about ₦4 billion monthly, lower than Asari’s alleged ₦2.7T payment for the Itsekiri and Benin contractors.

Building a Better Nigeria Through Service.
Yesterday in Lagos, I attended a dinner organised for Lagos NDC candidates and hosted by the Lagos Obidient Movement.
I used the occasion to remind the candidates that seeking public office is not about titles, positions, or the privileges associated with them. It is about accepting the responsibility to serve and committing ourselves to building a better Nigeria.
Having witnessed the suffering and hardship that our people continue to endure, we must remain conscious of the tremendous responsibility placed in our hands. Nigerians deserve leaders who are accessible, actively engaged, accountable, and willing to lead by example.
Our politics must establish a standard for others to follow. It must therefore be founded on competence, character, capacity, compassion, and a genuine commitment to the common good.
A better Nigeria is within reach, but achieving it requires leaders who are prepared to lead by example and remain accessible.

Abduction of 20 Youth Corps Members: Insecurity Must Not Be a Norm
The abduction of approximately 20 prospective NYSC members travelling to their orientation camp is yet another distressing indication of the worsening insecurity in our country. These young Nigerians were preparing to serve their nation, but they were unable to travel safely on our roads. Families are increasingly burdened by the fear that their loved ones could fall victim to kidnapping.
Protecting lives and property is the government’s foremost responsibility. We cannot continue to regard insecurity as an ordinary occurrence or act only after people’s lives have been disrupted.
I call for the immediate and safe rescue of all the abducted corps members and the arrest of those responsible. Nigeria must become a country where young people can travel, work, and serve their nation without fear. -PO
