For the people asking "why now" "you couldn't do this when he was alive"
1/ He died after the BBC did the first set of interviews

Man of God? Or predatory cult leader?

Can you even imagine Twitter having a Nigerian office? AGF will serve them papers to delete accounts daily. DSS can show up to intimidate the hapless staff. Nah imagine it?? They chose Ghana and rightfully so. Love that for them
Twitter staff from across the globe will start work in the Lagos office and on the first day find out that they cannot buy SIM cards 🤡
PLEASE AND PLEASE!!!!
They asked Sanwoolu about the Twitter ban and he said he cannot come and say what is right or wrong because the Commander in chief has information that he doesn’t have 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
The kind of equipment / vehicles the Nigerian Police brought out to scatter the Abuja protesters, I have never seen such in this country in my whole life. Not for actual criminals o. But for protesters
SSA to the governor of Lagos is calling Igbo people “Afghaneastern” Like you see things and you try to suspend your disbelief. Worst of all, nothing will happen.
Apparently Manchester Metropolitan University sent this circular alleging that CBN is withdrawing form A by end of 2022 for fee payments. Japa via studies about to be more expensive if true.
Today, I presided over a Govt/Private sector meeting on how to resolve the Apapa traffic gridlock.
Last week, I flew over the Apapa for an aerial assessment of the situation.
Apparently crowdfunding is illegal in Nigeria? Financial experts what is the way around this? Several rotating bank accounts? Keeping the money offshore? Let’s know. Anyhow sha, we go run am.

They commissioned a new Lagos airport terminal and we found out that bigger planes can’t move there because of the narrow apron. They announced the completion of phase 1 of the Lagos metro and we found out the electric trains were being towed by diesel locomotives.
Let me make a thread of all the cases I can find of this criminality from LASTMA/Nigerian Police/ Lagos Task Force re: One Way. Twitter is a wonderful resource and I have your time today.
Example 1:
Task force claim it is one way but the maps show it is a double lane. They have used the opportunity to extort citizens of Lagos and are collecting minimum of 25k for the offense. I witness about 20 cars being seize today and mine was part of it .
NIPOST fumbled ASOS, fumbled Aliexpress, but this is the institution that is supposed to deliver Nigerian passports abi? If that option ever comes, you better choose the pickup option to avoid stories that touch.
America sent an elite team of commandos to rescue ONE CITIZEN. God, when? When will my own country fight for me like this? When they are busy hoarding INDOMIEEEN?
It’s going to be hot AF in Lagos this December, this is not the time to experiment with “natural deodorant” “lemon” “glycolic acid” Spray that gaddem ALUMINIUM. Do you hear me!!!
If you and I know all the robbery hotspots in Lagos (Falomo bridge, Eko Bridge, Mile 2, Yabatech etc) explain to me why the Nigerian POLICE have decided not to post officers to these places permanently?? Could it be … never mind.
I don’t know whether it’s a function of adulthood that makes you see Nigeria with new eyes. Things are not working. Your optimistic think-pieces do not change the daily reality.
If the “young” people working in this admin didn’t resign when their bosses allowed their mates to be murdered last year, I don’t think a twitter ban is going to be the final straw, just saying
Melon Husk could go and torch the Twitter HQ (I mean with actual fire) and you would still find Nigerians saying “he’s a billionaire, I’m sure he had a plan and reason for doing it 🤡
A secondary school student was sexually assaulted, you didn’t call her parents, you didn’t get her medical attention, you didn’t expel the boys that did it, you then punished her… for being assaulted? This story has actually ruined my morning. Olashore??? What a disgrace
I took the Twitter Ban so personally. You people have short memories, 'cos I don't understand why you are twerking for dinosaurs on the Internet. Do you sha.
Can you guys remember when the IAAF paid $135,000 to Nigeria by mistake and that disaster of a Sports Minister Dalung, refused to return the money until they started threatening international sanctions? 🤡
@John_sonto
You will be shocked or won't be shocked. I remain the same and I mean every word. There's so much you don't see. He cares - deeply! If we do a proper honest assessment of everything he has put out, our focus will be on holding the apparatus to account to deliver for our
Don’t come for me but when people say Nigeria is where you can “blow”, most of the time I think it’s because it’s a place you can perpetuate fraud with zero consequences.
Nigeria could collapse tomorrow and not a single fuck will be given that day. People will suffer but the world will unlook. We are not that important we are just plenty.
Catching up on that crypto bro’s visit to Banana / Makoko. It struck me that after countless years of charities / private individuals going to Makoko to donate to the people living there, it has not made a single dent or improvement in their living conditions.
I don’t understand this new world we’re in and these very strange agendas being pushed by women at the detriment of themselves. It’s all very dystopian.
I sha know that 5-10 years ago I was happier. Maybe not happy happy. But def happier. There was more hope of a soft life. Now all I worry about is how to protect myself from dumbass Government policies and general dysfunction.
@iaboyeji
What is the point of this thread besides patting yourself on the back because you were lucky to be able to “innovate” around bad government policy? What we have is an unsustainable situation where the Government kills, yes KILLS businesses every single day.
Wait, is it that people never read the report on how Dangote lobbied the government at the time to frustrate Ibeto Cement out of business? Ibeto Cement lost millions daily for like 2 years - Am I tripping? What are these tales by moonlight I’m seeing on the TL?
This is taking me back to the golden age of neosoul. Erykah, Jill Scott, Goapele, Maxwell, India Arie, Amel Larrieux, Floetry, D’Angelo, Bilal, Alicia, Angie Stone, Musiq Soulchild .... The nostalgia is DEEP
I started looking at what adults do when chaperoning kids on school trips in hotels. I read about bed checks, someone stationed to patrol hallways at night someone in the lobby. Being a chaperone is not a joke!

questions Senator David Umahi about the Lagos-Calabar Highway Project’s environmental impact assessment. She asks whether the project has received final approval from the Federal Ministry of Environment or if an
Pelumi Onifade was killed after being picked up by the Lagos Task Force. At the bare minimum, this force can be “queried” by Babajide Sanwoolu, as this “force” was established for LASG, by LASG. That he has not come out to address this is disgraceful.
Ireti Doyle put her biological offspring’s current Government name, maiden name, business name plus age to let you know how serious she is sksksksksksk.
Please don’t stress your parents abeg 💀
I’m a bit worried by the number of people in the comments saying they’ve “helped” someone before. In case there’s any doubt, don’t ever help ANY ONE carry stuff at the airport o. Ehen
At the airport and this complete stranger walks up to me to plead that I assist him with checking-in his luggage with my identity cos he’s carrying excess luggage. Haven’t seen this kind of liver before
A person that works for a so-called foreign ministry, that is supposed to work FOR CITIZENS, went out of his way to perpetuate lies against a citizen in peril and ended it with “we go help her sha.” If that’s not insane to you then I can’t help you.
All the people that have EVER stuck their necks out for this country have only been repaid in sorrows, tears and blood. Quite literally.
It’s not worth it.
Lagos state announced (On Twitter) that the curfew would begin at 4pm. Then the account posted again at 7.08pm that the curfew would begin at 9pm. BUT THE SHOOTING HAD ALREADY STARTED. They are taking us for mugs
