We spent almost all night scanning through @inecnigeria voter register to identify fraudulent profiles: State by state, PU by PU as much as we could. From what we found, you won’t be far from the truth is you say that about 50% of the newly registered voters are fake.

The only Formidable Opponent we have in 2027 is not even APC... It's INEC. If we can device how to defeat INEC and their shenanigans then 2027 is done and dusted

INEC! INEC!! INEC!!! What are you doing with AI to populate and manipulate the voters register less than three months to the 2027 elections? INEC, you are sowing the seeds of anarchy by messing with the national voters register. This is not right. It is outrightly dangerous. Don't trigger a national crisis that is avoidable. Please don't! When the crisis starts, don't say you were not warned. Spare this nation from a crisis.

CIVILITY IS NOT WEAKNESS. ENOUGH OF THE HARASSMENT OF MY SUPPORTERS. RELEASE RILWAN OLAWALE NOW. The continued intimidation and harassment of my supporters across the country, the latest being the case of Rilwan Olawale, is disturbing and unacceptable. President Bola Tinubu has remained a huge beneficiary of our democracy and should not brazenly be destroying it by encouraging and facilitating violence. Our campaign is peaceful and issue-driven, focused on offering Nigerians a credible alternative built on competence, accountability, justice, and compassion. We have chosen the path of peace, not violence; persuasion, not intimidation. However, nobody should mistake our civility for weakness, our restraint for fear, or our commitment to peace for an absence of resolve. We will not be intimidated into silence, nor will we abandon Nigerians who believe in a New Nigeria that is possible and will be OK. I therefore demand transparency regarding Rilwan Olawale’s arrest, his release, respect for his rights, and an end to politically motivated harassment. No government or political party has the right to deny Nigerians the freedom to support a candidate of their choice. We will remain peaceful but resolute. We will not resort to violence, but we will stand firmly and lawfully against every attempt to undermine our democratic rights. A New Nigeria is POssible and will be OK. -PO

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

The Audacity of Imagination. During a long drive from Manchester with stops in Birmingham NDC Presidential candidate Peter Obi and I visited the recent brainstorming on his manifesto which focused on very audacious interventions and Goals to redeem Nigeria from crippling corruption that has pushed the misery index into red alert. We agreed that besides debilitating corruption and poor leadership hamstringing progress not having bold innovations and tenacity have been in the way of the promise of Nigeria. Declaring states of emergency in Education, Health Care, Food Security and Security as well as power, with special champions appointed to drive high performance as stretch goals. This will be anchored on consequences for not reaching those goals in set time becoming public management tools . Frontal assault on corruption, especially with technology that will prevent Custom Duty and other revenues from flowing into private pockets, could bring in more than 30 trillion Naira a year without increasing taxes to make for a functioning primary healthcare system and the building of one World class hospital in each geopolitical zone within 30 months. A special Diaspora return initiative would enable transforming turn around of the sector. Massive deployment of solar, and wind , in addition to emergency services of turbines on Badges floating down major rivers could quickly raise generated power to 40.000 megawatts through creative financing without borrowing as Egypt and others have done

Honouring Nigeria's Rural Women on Their International Day Today, October 15th, is globally dedicated to honouring rural women. In recognition of their contributions, I set out early this morning to spend time with members of the Akpu Sellers Association at their markets in Sheda and Sheda Galadima, within the Kwali Area Council of the FCT, to gain a firsthand understanding of their lives and daily experiences. During our discussion, they expressed concerns about worsening hardship, declining business patronage, severely insufficient water supply, and the need for microcredit to strengthen their businesses. I assured them that our government remains committed to supporting them, all rural women, and indeed, all Nigerians. Supporting their enterprises will be one of our priorities because it is essential to my central commitment to lifting our people out of poverty. I sincerely honour the millions of Nigerian women in rural communities who cultivate our land, produce our food, sustain our families, and power rural economies, yet remain among those most neglected by government. They continue to endure hardship, insecurity, rising poverty, limited access to credit, and inadequate healthcare. My solidarity with rural women demonstrates my commitment to building a Nigeria where those who sustain our nation are empowered to prosper, rural communities receive the investments they rightly deserve, and no woman is deprived of opportunity because of her place of residence. A New Nigeria must support rural women. I commend our women for their resilience amid severe economic pressures caused by poor government policies, incompetence, and the outright mismanagement of our national resources. A New Nigeria is POssible, and will be OK. -PO
