So i saw this guy holding this banner up at Jakande in Lekki in a bid to promote his music himself in the best way he can & thought to help him amplify it. I streamed it & it isn’t bad music. Irrespective, one stream doesn’t kill anyone.

Having a baby isnt easy. If your wife is expecting,pls if u can,plan your leave towards her due date,or save to afford sometime off w/o pay. Use breast milk extractor & feed your baby at night while she sleeps. Wash cloths; change diapers; cook & gist. You won’t die. Trust me.

2. Tinubu fixed Lagos. Increased IGR. Infact Tinubu paid for my WAEC in 2002. I thank him for that. I thank him. But there is more to my son’s future than Lagos’ revenue and WAEC. Lagos is not fixed, it is infact an epitome of Nigeria’s political corruption, underdevelopment and.

That GMB ended up a complete calamity isn’t because of that support, but because he was never a good candidate. Peter Obi is by all parameters better than Buhari. The anger is even more justified now because the rot has further deepened. Nigerians are dying like chickens.

My view of TB Joshua changed in 2007. I & many students were stranded on ibadan expressway due to a deadly logjam. We begged MFM to let us spend the night. They locked the gate. We trekked miles to Lagos. I appreciated TB Joshua’s humanity. He sheltered & fed many. Rest In Peace.

My heart goes out to all Lagos folks still at the start of their careers without car this rainy Monday. Esp those who have to travel long distances to work. Nothing as brutal as getting stranded at a Lagos bus stop in the rain. Or be inside a bus with bad window or leaking roof.

Another four cases of coronavirus just reported in Lagos. Bringing total number to 12. Lagos is now contact tracing 1,300 people. We just escalated from “we are in charge” to avoidable crisis management mode overnight. We played politics with human lives.

A Nigerian Senator beat up a nursing mother in a sex toy shop. A criminal & disgraceful offense. The Senate set up a DISCIPLINARY committee, the assaulter still showed up loud-mouthed & unremorseful in front of the Committee. But it is Remi Tinubu we are dragging. I give up.

For the past 2-4 election cycles, many argued for a credible 3rd force that can build momentum among Nigerians to serve as alternative to the 2-dominant parties. Many candidates tried & failed. Peter Obi is making this a reality & I wonder why some aren’t happy it is happening.

Some reactions to Abba Kyari’s death are unfortunate. The death of such a compassionate, visionary & impactful leader who led reforms that has improved average Nigerians’ lives is a huge loss to us. A fmr CEO of UBA & Director at Mobil - an astute professional & politician. RIP.

It is a shame that Dangote, Dipo, Sega, Aisha & Tony Elumelu are trending more than the #EndSARS, #EndSWAT #SARSMUSTEND and other hashtags of this campaign. None of these individuals is more important than the overall objective. We must NOT let the crack they are digging succeed.

I love Governor @jidesanwoolu. He doesn’t stress Lagosians. Good man. When Ambode was governor, we were always arguing & stressing over if he was performing or not. Fight everyday. But BOS? No fighting. There is a national consensus that he is sleeping. From Day 1. Still birth.

A Nigerian hospitality entrepreneur will invest 50m building a bar, or 1billion building hotel, then pack 50 school cert holders, pay them 15k per month with 1hr training to be servicing the customers that will help him recoup his 2billion. No be mumu be that?.

5. Peter Obi’s supporters are toxic and abusive. I can never align with such bullies. Well, all thanks to Buharists who introduced this approach in 2015, and to be fair, it worked for ousting GEJ and built momentum for Buhari globally.

And the road remains so till today despite Lagos/FG alignment, which was the reason given then. Tribal politics has never benefited any tribe in Nigeria. The north remains the poorest despite having the most presidents, Bayelsa remains poor with development issues despite GEJ.

Else, others will be more sympathetic to their badly corrupt political structures. Tinubu and Atiku are amongst the biggest gladiators of that corrupt political structure. LP and Obi have built a momentum that is reverberating across the world. It can happen and it is happening.

Because 12 reasons.1. Democracy is about choices. Only in Nigeria does democracy function as autocracy & elites find it to be decent rather than fight.2. I’m able to separate my views from my comfort zone & see the brutalization of micro businesses/transporters by violent thugs.
