My mother used to say "allow some people and they will look for allowance from you".
We all know what we are doing.
As a mum, when you drop your child to a friends/neighbours place, remember to drop feeding money too.
People and families are managing in this tough economy.
You cannot consistently add an extra mouth to someone's household and act completely nonchalant & unconcerned about the financial implications.
Having genuine people to look after your child is goldmine, while you go about your daily hustle
The best you can do is to support by dropping money for feeding (food & snacks)
Even when they genuinely don't expect anything from you, make a conscious effort to support and appreciate them.
Stop confusing familiarity with entitlement.
Someone being kind enough to accommodate your child doesn't automatically make them financially responsible for that child.
Your job is 9 to 6pm and you no drop anything for your child welfare...you're wuuuked.
Next week...
Knock knock
"Mummy Somto, pls I'm not going to be around, I'm going to my sister's place"
Just like that, your entire childcare arrangement has developed a technical fault. 😂
You'll take your child to your workplace by force.
Mtsheeeeeew.
Happy birthday beautiful woman.
And when I say beautiful, I mean it in every sense of the word.
You're gracious and kind, blessed are those who have you in their lives.
Live long and prosper ma'am.
Bold of you to assume you can win your woman in an argument that involves shouting.
So bold.
Very bold.

I observed a lot of young people prefer staying in serviced apartment than renting a house, so I decided to look into it.
Serviced apartment vs Renting a house in Abuja.
Serviced apartment, mid-range.
N400,000 a month average. Power, water, security, wifi, all bundled in.
12 months equals N4,800,000 a year. No agency fee, no legal fee, no caution deposit, no diesel budget. That number is the full number.
Renting a house, 1-bedroom, decent area.
Annual rent around N2,000,000.
Add agency fee 10 percent, legal fee 10 percent, caution deposit, inspection fee. That adds roughly N600,000 to N700,000 upfront.
Total year one cost which is about N2,700,000.
If your house is not on an estate with central power, you are running your own generator. A modest setup burns through N300,000 to N400,000 a month in diesel alone.
That is an extra N3,600,000 to N4,800,000 a year just for light.
Total real cost of the cheaper house option. Somewhere between N6,300,000 and N7,500,000 a year once you add power.
Serviced apartment stays flat at N4,800,000 because power is already inside the rent.
Even at N400,000 a month, serviced still comes in cheaper than a self-serviced house once diesel is added. The expensive option is actually the discipline option, you know the ceiling on day one.
The house only wins on paper if it sits inside an estate with proper central power, because then you are not paying landlord margin and you are not paying diesel margin either.

Ronke was 32 weeks pregnant with her second child. Everything seemed fine, but over the last week, her feet started swelling terribly. When she complained to her mother in law, she was told, "It’s normal, it means the baby is growing well. Just put your feet up."

Dear Young Nigerians,
One lesson from the 2023 elections, particularly in Lagos, should never be forgotten.
In the period following the presidential election and leading up to the governorship election, we witnessed a troubling shift in public discourse. Conversations that should have focused on competence, governance, development, and the future of our nation were gradually diverted towards tribal sentiments, ethnic divisions, and unnecessary suspicion among citizens.
Many sincere and well-meaning Nigerians participated in these conversations without realising that they were being drawn into narratives carefully designed by others.
Throughout history, whenever politicians find it difficult to compete on ideas, performance, character, or vision, some resort to exploiting the fault lines of ethnicity, religion, and identity. Their calculation is simple: a divided people are easier to manipulate than a united people.
Today, I see similar efforts emerging again, sometimes in more subtle and sophisticated ways. Narratives are planted, amplified, and circulated, often by individuals who genuinely believe they are defending a worthy cause, without recognizing the broader agenda behind such campaigns.
Let me state clearly that Pastor Enoch Adeboye remains one of the foremost fathers of faith in our nation. For decades, he has consistently preached the virtues of peace, prayer, love, reconciliation, and national unity. Even when faced with provocation, his response has always reflected humility, restraint, wisdom, and grace.
At 84 years of age, it would be unfair for young and able-bodied Nigerians to transfer to him responsibilities that properly belong to them. The task of building a better Nigeria rests primarily on the shoulders of the younger generation. It is their duty to lead the conversations, champion the reforms, and drive the positive change our nation urgently requires.
We must be careful not to become instruments in the hands of those who secretly nurture division while publicly preaching unity. In most cases, their target is not the individual being attacked; instead, it is the person who is attacking. Their real objective is to weaken the bonds that hold us together as one people and one nation.
I therefore urge all young Nigerians: do not allow anyone to recruit you into hatred. Do not allow anyone to weaponise your ethnicity, your faith, or your admiration for respected leaders.
Question every narrative. Verify every claim. Follow the facts. Resist manipulation.
The Nigeria of our dreams can only be built by citizens who refuse to be divided, who choose unity over hatred, and who place our collective future above narrow interests.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Where are all the people making noise about cyberbullying? Now, this is what real bullying looks like. This is typically what a slightly richer, more powerful person can do to another person and get away with it in Nigeria. The reckless driver did not pronounce her children dead, her actions actually killed them. You see the difference?
Now, you see that energy you people are using to fight for a multi-millionaire celebrity family because of a mean tweet about their daughter, this is where it is needed. This woman deserves justice.
This is why the only objective thing to do in a country like Nigeria is always to protect the poor against the rich in every circumstance, because if this were done to a rich person, I promise you the perpetrator would have been dealt with by now, and the victim wouldn't be online crying for justice.
This is what poor people go through regularly in Nigeria, but the priority of supposed educated Nigerians is to support laws designed to protect the emotions of rich people. Very weird society, I swear.
Mrs. Amarachi Promise Esomonu recounts the heartbre@king moment a vehicle rammed into her three children right in front of her, k!ll!ng them instantly on May 15, 2026, in Rivers State.
According to her, the man was teaching his girlfriend how to drive that night when the girlfriend ran into her three kids. She said immediately the incident happened, the boyfriend quickly came out from the passenger side and entered the driver’s seat in an attempt to drive off with the car. However, she held him back before residents in the area came out and apprehended him.

There’s a silent disaster happening in Nigeria that nobody wants to confront honestly.
We keep shouting about unemployment, bad leadership, low productivity, corruption, poor healthcare, failed institutions and why our country is not working. But many people are avoiding the root cause.
Our education system has been deeply compromised.
A student enters secondary school or university full of dreams, intelligence and potential. Then the system teaches them something dangerous:
“You do not need competence to succeed.”
WAEC malpractice. NECO malpractice. GCE runs. Sorting. Sex for grades. Extortion. Intimidation. Victimization. Handout rackets. “See me after class.” “Talk to your lecturer.” “Settle this course.”
And after 4 or 5 years of surviving that environment, we expect excellence to magically appear.
It won’t.
A country cannot repeatedly reward dishonesty in classrooms and expect integrity in government offices, hospitals, engineering sites, courtrooms and businesses.
This is where many of our unemployable graduates are coming from.
Not because Nigerians are not intelligent.
Not because our youths are lazy.
But because too many people were trained inside a system where merit was murdered.
The painful part is this:
UNN, UNILAG, FUTO, ABU, UI, IMSU, ABSU and many others are using largely the same NUC-regulated curriculum.
The difference is standards.
The universities that still command respect are usually the ones with stronger resistance against sorting, extortion and academic fraud.
The ones collapsing in reputation are often the ones where corruption became normalized.
Once a student realizes they can buy an “A” with ₦20,000, or sleep their way through a course, or manipulate results through connections, the motivation to truly learn starts dying slowly.
And when millions of such graduates enter the labor market, the entire country pays the price.
That weak engineer may eventually supervise a bridge.
That poorly trained nurse may handle a patient.
That compromised accountant may manage public funds.
That fake first-class graduate may become a lecturer and reproduce the same cycle again.
This is no longer just an education problem.
It is a national security problem.
Countries become great because they protect competence fiercely.
Singapore did it.
China did it.
Germany did it.
South Korea did it.
You cannot build a first-world country with a third-world attitude towards education integrity.
Nigeria does not have a shortage of talent.
Nigeria has a shortage of systems that protect excellence.
And until we become ruthless about fighting academic corruption, exam malpractice, sorting, sex-for-grades and institutional intimidation, we will continue producing certificates instead of competence.
This fight is bigger than schools.
It is about the future survival of Nigeria itself.

Team @Spectranet_NG can do better.
I got a call this morning about my data expiry & it got me thinking 🤔
They don't call when you renew your subscription:
Dear Mr/ Miss XYZ, we noticed you've renewed your subscription. Thank you for your patronage and we believe you'll enjoy our services.
Have a nice day 👍
The moment your subscription expires, you'll get a call almost immediately from their customer care representative, reminding you of the expiry & ways to renew.
THIS IS NOT BALANCED AT ALL.
Dear @Spectranet_NG I've been a faithful customer for more than 10yrs when we were using the USB dongle/stick and I can tell you that I've never missed a month of subscription till now.
If you'll not call me to thank me for renewing my subscription
Then don't call me when it expires to remind me.
To you, I'm not making sense because "it's all about the money" but no wahala.
It's not by your call that I'll remember to renew .
Just so you know, I renew at my convenience, which I've always done monthly and not by your calls.
You're welcome

URGENT & PRIVATE
To: Professor Joash Amupitan (SAN),
Office of the Chairman,
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC),
Abuja, Nigeria.
Subject: NOTICE OF LEGAL IMPLICATIONS REGARDING DENIAL OF DIGITAL ASSETS AND THE RISKS OF PERVERTING THE COURSE OF JUSTICE.
Sir,
This correspondence serves as a formal observation and a strategic warning regarding your office’s recent public denials concerning the ownership of specific social media accounts and linked financial identifiers.
While the use of defensive offenses such as threatening the arrest of citizens who point out digital footprints may offer a temporary shield in the media, it is creating a catastrophic legal liability for you as a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) and a public servant.
1. The Forensic Trap.
Why Denial is Not a Defense.
In the digital age, a denial of ownership is an invitation for forensic discovery. The public space has already identified links between the account in question and your personal email, phone number, and an OPay account.
A. KYC Integrity
Banking institutions like OPay operate under strict Know Your Customer (KYC) mandates. If a subpoena is issued, the disclosure of the BVN and NIN used to verify that account will provide irrefutable proof of ownership.
B. Subpoena to Tech Giants.
Should this matter reach a court of competent jurisdiction, a request for your IMEI log-in history from X (formerly Twitter) will reveal whether the account was accessed from your personal or official mobile devices.
2. Legal Consequences.
Perjury and Misleading the State.
By claiming the account is a cyber attack and prompting your office to threaten arrests, you are moving from a PR crisis into a criminal territory.
A. Giving False Information.
Under Nigerian law, using the machinery of the State (the Police) to investigate a crime you know to be a fabrication is a punishable offense.
B. Perjury.
If these denials are eventually sworn to in an affidavit or presented as testimony in any election tribunal or civil suit, the resulting conviction for perjury would mean the automatic loss of your license as a SAN and your permanent disqualification from public office.
3. International Litigation & The ECOWAS Court.
While you may feel shielded by local judicial dynamics, international courts operate beyond the reach of executive interference.
A. The ECOWAS Court.
This body has consistently ruled against the use of state power to harass citizens over digital expressions. A suit filed here would not just target you, but would expose the Nigerian State to international embarrassment and hefty fines, for which you would be held personally and professionally responsible.
B. International Reputational Blacklisting.
As a law professor, you are aware that global legal bodies and monitoring groups track such controversies. This saga threatens to turn a storied academic career into a textbook example of digital-era integrity failure.
4. Recommendation for Damage Control.
By continuing this path of aggressive denial, you are destroying the very integrity you seek to protect. The threat to arrest citizens is perceived globally as an admission of guilt through intimidation.
We strongly advise a pivot toward transparency. The digital footprints are already in the public domain; no amount of local police interference can erase the data held on servers in San Francisco or the cloud-based ledgers of OPay.
The path you are on leads to removal from office, criminal conviction, and a permanent stain on your legal legacy. Be so guided.
Your best option is to resign now.
Comrade, IG Wala.

I hope this message reaches the right person, as I have to try.
I am searching for my mother, Joy Bassey (maiden name), who comes from the Emienyi family in Nusomutong, Abi LGA, Cross River State, Nigeria. Her brother is Clement Bassey.
She left when I was very young, and I have spent my life without knowing her, hearing her voice, or having answers to my questions.
I was informed that she remarried and moved to Ghana, and since then, she has completely disappeared from my life.
If you know her, if you’ve heard her name, or if this message somehow reaches someone connected to her, please, I am begging you to help me find my mother.
Even the smallest piece of information could change everything.
Please repost. Someone out there must know something. 🙏💔

Behaviour is a language. People can say all the right words, but what they do is the real message. You don’t truly understand someone by what they promise. You understand them by how they act over time.
In relationships, this becomes very clear. Someone may say “I love you” but keeps lying. Another says “you matter” but never shows up for you. Someone claims they are serious, yet leaves you confused all the time. That is their real language speaking. Words can be sweet, but behaviour tells the truth.
A person who truly respects you will show it without stress. They will make time for you. They will be clear about where you stand. They won’t leave you guessing or chasing basic things like attention, honesty, and care. You will feel it in their actions, not just hear it in their words.
It is also important to focus on patterns, not excuses. Anyone can make a mistake once. But when something keeps happening again and again, it is no longer a mistake. It is a choice. At that point, you are not dealing with potential, you are dealing with reality.
At the same time, your own behaviour is speaking too. If you keep accepting less than you deserve, you are quietly telling people it is okay to treat you that way. If you stay silent when something hurts you, you are teaching them that your needs can be ignored.
Healthy relationships are not complicated. Words and actions match. Effort is clear. Respect is steady. You don’t feel confused or drained all the time.
So don’t just listen to what people say. Watch what they do. Behaviour never lies.

Every Nigerian Should be Scared Now
El-Rufai’s mother died. And because of that, not because of any court order, or because of any legal process, they let him out of detention. Think about what that means for a second. A former governor of Kaduna State, a Nigerian citizen with constitutional rights, was only granted his freedom because his family was in mourning. Not justice but grief. That is the country we are living in right now.
This man has been locked up since February 16, 2026. Over 40 days. No bail granted or substantive hearing concluded. His bail application was literally still pending, the court had fixed March 31st to rule on it. So while the judiciary was still doing its work, the ICPC quietly released him on “compassionate grounds”.
Tell me, on whose legal authority? Who gave them the power to play God with a man’s liberty outside the courtroom? Because last time I checked, that’s what judges are for.
Now let’s talk about the pile-on, because this is where it gets really ugly. It wasn’t just one agency. It wasn’t just one charge. They sent in the EFCC first, ₦423 billion misappropriation allegation. Then the ICPC re-arrested him. Then the DSS filed a separate three-count charge at the Federal High Court over allegations of intercepting phone calls belonging to the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu. Three agencies with three charges. One man….as how na.
In any serious democracy, lawyers have a word for this pattern: persecution. In Nigeria, the government calls it “fighting corruption”. The difference matters.
And it gets worse. On February 19th, the ICPC raided his Abuja home. El-Rufai has since filed a N1 billion lawsuit against them, claiming the search warrant was invalid and the entire operation was unlawful. He’s asking the court to throw out every single piece of evidence collected that day. If he’s right, and the courts will decide, then this entire prosecution is built on a broken, illegal foundation. They locked a man up for over a month based on evidence that may not even be admissible. That is not law enforcement it is theatre with handcuffs.
And through all of this? The ICPC released no official statement about the terms of his release today. No press conference or conditions disclosed or transparency whatsoever. A government agency holds a high-profile citizen for 40+ days, then quietly opens the door when his mum dies, and says nothing to the public. This is how you know it was never purely about the law. Because the law demands accountability. This government demands obedience.
Listen to what I need you to understand, this is not about whether you like El-Rufai. Many people don’t, and that’s valid. But rights are not reserved for people you admire. The Constitution doesn’t say “you get bail unless we really don’t like you”. It doesn’t say “three agencies can chase you at once if Twitter agrees you’re guilty”. It doesn’t say “you can go home when tragedy strikes your family”.
If they can do this to a former governor, a man with lawyers, political connections, and a national profile, imagine what they do to ordinary Nigerians who can’t fight back. Who have no cameras on them. Whose mothers can die and nobody opens any doors.
This government is not fighting corruption. It is weaponising the anti-corruption architecture to eliminate political threats. And the most dangerous part? They’re doing it in broad daylight, daring you to say something.
So say something.
