Remember: The Senegalese-American singer, Akon claimed that Nigerians are the smartest people in the world...

In a new interview with the popular music podcast "Drinking Champs", Akon shared stories about his early life in America, getting into and becoming a music star.

During the interview, Akon talked about Africa, and during the conversation, he called Nigerians the smartest people on the continent. According to Akon, Nigeria is similar to New York City and Nigerians are the smartest people on the planet.

"This may be debatable but Nigerians are the smartest people on the planet...There's nobody smarter than the Nigerian," Akon said.

This is what we have been saying. Being a Nigerian makes you intelligent and smart.

We are Nigerians and we are great.

We are light!

Buhari Condolence:
Peter Obi Pulled a Masterclass to Prevent political manipulator

Even the Blank Spaces Weren’t Spared!”

Nigerians were left both amused and impressed after Peter Obi carefully shaded out all the blank spaces on his condolence note during a visit to the late President Buhari’s home.

According to observers, it was a strategic move to frustrate professional political mischief-makers, who may add words on the space to change the meaning of Obi’s condolence message for political propaganda.
As one commentator joked:
“Obi didn’t just write a condolence note, he wrote it like it’s going to be used in a Supreme Court affidavit!” 😂

How I missed Buhari’s Burial not minding all my efforts to make it - Obi explains 👇👇

Yesterday morning, after a condolence visit to the family of the late Awujale of Ijebuland in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State, I tried to be in Daura, Katsina State to attend the burial of our late President Muhammadu Buhari, but all my efforts proved abortive, due to the logistical challenge beyond my control.

I immediately sent a message to a member of late President Buhari’s family explaining my situation. He graciously replied that it was quite understandable, and I made a promise to come today.

Today, accompanied by Senators Ireti Kingibe, Okey Ezea, and Obidient National Coordinator Dr. Tanko Yunusa, I was in Daura with Vice President Shettima, Former Vice President Atiku, Senate President Akpabio, Governor Radda of Katsina, Governor Zulum of Borno State, and many other dignitaries, to pay our last respects to the late President Muhammadu Buhari and to console his family.

I recall vividly meeting with President Buhari in 2022 during my campaign. He said to me: “Peter, you seem to be everywhere and loved by the people. And I wish you the best, please, if you win, do not forget the poor.”

That moment has been the thought I have had since the news of his demise. His concern for the poor should remain a reminder to us all.

May the Almighty God, who has called both our late President and the Awujale of Ijebuland to eternal rest, grant them peace, and comfort their families and indeed our dear nation, as their passing is a deep loss to Nigeria. May their legacies of service and dignity never be forgotten.

pictures of Peter Obi in Daura, Kastina State

2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, visits the family of late former President Muhammadu Buhari during the Fidda'u prayer held in Daura, Katsina State.

There was outrage by mainly President Tinubu’s media team led by Reno over Obi’s absence at the Buhari burial yesterday in their effort to use that to push 2027 election narrative against Obi.

Does Obi’s visit today counter Tinubu media team’s yesterday media narrative against Obi?

Abuja, Nigeria 🇳🇬

Where Beauty Meets Purpose

In the heart of Nigeria, where the hills roll gently and the sky stretches wide,
Lies Abuja, the capital jewel of Africa’s pride.

A city born of vision …planned with care, built with grace,
Where modern dreams rise in harmony with nature’s embrace.

From the towering A*o Rock to the calm of Jabi Lake,
Abuja whispers a welcome only true explorers take.

Clean streets, grand mosques, vibrant markets, and golden sunsets

Every corner tells a story you won’t soon forget.

Come feel the soul of Nigeria. 🌍
Come discover Abuja …Africa’s best-kept secret. 🇳🇬
