If the Nigerian government is truly serious, then all Muslim personnel—especially those of Fulani origin—should be withdrawn from the fight against insurgents. It is common knowledge that many of these insurgents are Fulani and Muslim, and there is a high risk that those within the military may be protecting their own.

This idea of granting forgiveness simply because insurgents have "surrendered" is nothing short of insanity. These are individuals who are often rootless, brutal, and merciless—yet they are now being pardoned and, to make matters worse, recruited into the military. Isn't this effectively giving them access to sensitive information to pass on to their comrades? Or does the government naively believe that they’ll simply betray and kill their former allies?

This is exactly why many Nigerians would rather serve in the US or UK military than join the Nigerian Army, which is plagued by tribalism and religious bias.

I couldn't help but laugh when Governor Sanwo-Olu urged southern youths to join the Nigerian Army. Do they really think we lack understanding, especially in the face of all these glaring facts—while their own children are safely abroad, receiving quality education?

We are already in a dire situation, but as for me, I would never approve of my son joining this farce called an Army. No wonder soldiers are being bombed in Borno—it’s absurd to hear that insurgents could storm a military formation and carry out an operation successfully.

Nigeria... Hmmmm.

The Rent Is Too High!

Whether it’s for one month, 12 months, or 36 months, the main issue is the cost of rent—not just the duration. We’re not even complaining about paying for two years upfront. The real burden lies in the rent itself, along with additional charges like agreement and commission fees. What makes it worse is that many landlords collect these fees themselves, yet still evict tenants before two years under flimsy excuses.

Paying rent monthly or quarterly might be convenient for salary earners, but not everyone earns regularly. Some people may go four months without steady income. The key point is this: reduce the rent!

It’s also surprising that the government isn’t stepping in by building houses specifically for rent. Doing so would not only reduce rent prices but also create jobs—caretakers could be employed to manage these properties. Since the houses would remain government-owned, any tenant who misbehaves could be easily evicted without drama. This would bring order to the housing sector.

If nothing is done, landlords in places like Lagos will continue demanding two years' rent for a single month’s use. The truth is, it's just a month—so why pay for two years? The big question remains: who controls the rent?

We Know Where Bandits Are, When NAF Comes Instead Of Dropping Bombs On Bandits, They Waste It- Gambo

Why are they deceiving Southerners and even calling them to join?

Sa’idu Gambo, a vigilante fighter from Katsina State, has raised concerns about the Nigerian Air Force’s (NAF) effectiveness in combating banditry in northern communities. In an interview with News Central TV, Gambo shared his experience and frustrations while defending his village against repea...

Lagos State Govt Urges Residents to Report Landlords Demanding Over One Year’s Rent.

The Lagos State Government has called on residents to report landlords or agents demanding more than one year’s rent in advance, signaling a renewed push to enforce tenancy laws and protect tenants from exploitative practices.

http://opr.news/2b7bcd0e250511en_ng?link=1&client=mini

My own take: What's the benefit of paying one year's rent upfront when prices are skyrocketing? Some landlords are charging two years' rent as one year's rent, making it unsustainable. Lagosians need affordable rent, not just flexible payment terms. Whether it's one year or three months, exorbitant rent remains a burden. The focus should be on reducing rent prices rather than just adjusting payment schedules.

What We Do for Ourselves Dies with Us, But What We Do for Others Lives On

Many people live only to satisfy themselves—pursuing wealth, comfort, and personal ambition. But at the end of life, all we gathered for ourselves remains behind. The houses we built, the clothes we wore, the meals we enjoyed—they all perish with us.

However, the things we do for others—whether good or bad—continue to live long after we are gone. A kind word spoken, a child helped through school, a family supported in time of need, a soul led to Christ—these live on in the hearts of people, shaping destinies, and echoing through generations.

On the other hand, when we wrong others, cause pain, cheat, or abandon those who looked to us for help, the effects also outlive us. Bitterness, broken homes, and shattered dreams may be the legacy we leave if we live selfishly or carelessly.

So choose to live intentionally. Sow seeds of kindness, give selflessly, serve faithfully, and love genuinely. Because what we do for ourselves may be forgotten, but what we do to others—rightly or wrongly—becomes our true legacy.

Tension Rises As Fulani Communities Face Attacks In West Africa

Tensions are reaching a boiling point in West Africa as attacks against Fulani communities in Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger escalate, leading to mass displacement and deepening ethnic divides.

Reports indicate that government-backed militias in Burkina Faso have been involved in deadly assaults on Fulani civilians, though authorities have strongly denied any involvement.

Nevertheless, the situation continues to deteriorate as ethnic and security conflicts spiral out of control.

In Mali and Niger, Fulani populations are increasingly becoming targets of retaliation due to their perceived connections with armed groups operating in the region.

While some Fulani individuals have indeed joined extremist factions, entire communities now face suspicion, forced evictions, and violent reprisals.

Many have been driven from their homes as local militias and civilian groups take matters into their own hands, intensifying the crisis.

As instability worsens, fears are growing that the conflict could spread beyond these nations, affecting Nigeria, Sudan, and Cameroon.

What's your take on this?
Should Africans as a whole come together to fight these common criminals?

MARRY FOR STRATEGY, NOT JUST SPARKS Love is beautiful, but it’s not enough to build a lasting union.

1. Marriage Is Not Just Romance—It’s Strategy If you base marriage only on feelings, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment. Emotions are unstable. One moment you're in love, the next you're uncertain. When tough times hit—like financial strain or emotional burnout—only a relationship built on shared goals, values, and responsibility will survive.

2. Feelings Fade—Structure Sustains What happens when the butterflies vanish? When the economy hits hard? When emotional highs become lows? Love is the spark, but a long-term relationship needs fuel: shared vision, consistent effort, mutual respect, and intentional sacrifice.

3. Age-Gap Logic—Don’t Marry Vibes, Marry Vision You may bring wisdom and stability, but if your partner is focused on vanity, not values—on social media clout over substance—you’ve entered a one-sided equation. If your legacy matters, align with someone mature enough to build it with you.

4. Marriage Is a Merger, Not a Movie Marriage is a union of destinies, not a fairy tale. It’s about combining strength, influence, and purpose. But if one partner is chasing clout while the other is chasing calling, the mismatch will create conflict. Choose someone who shares your vision—not just your bed.

5. Many Modern Women Avoid Responsibility Let’s be honest: some want comfort without contribution, romance without responsibility, and luxury without labor. A partner who resents being asked tough questions or shuts down when life gets real isn’t ready for the journey of marriage.

6. Submission, Sacrifice, and Stability—All Optional? In today’s world, loyalty is negotiable, submission is conditional, and accountability is “too controlling.” But leadership in marriage requires agreement. If you’re the only one carrying the weight, it’s not a partnership—it’s a burden.

7. Broken Backgrounds Breed Dysfunction Many were raised in chaotic homes, and instead of healing, they normalize toxicity. When a man offers structure and peace, he’s accused of being “too strict” or “too intense.” The truth? She’s not ready to build—she’s stuck in survival mode.

BOTTOM LINE: Marriage isn’t just about who excites you emotionally—it’s about who empowers you purposefully. Pick a partner who adds value to your journey, not one who distracts you from your destiny.

Because when all is said and done, love can’t be legally enforced. But commitment, structure, and shared vision will keep your home standing—even when the feelings fade.

Marry wisely. Build strategically.

True colours, we need to journey back to its emergence when they were weak and outnumbered. Then, Islam spoke of tolerance in verses like Quran 2:256 (There is no compulsion in religion) and Quran 109: 6 (to you your faith, to me mine).

These verses were revealed in Mecca, where early Muslims had no power, but these were survival tactics. You may wonder why I say these were survival tactics. I stated such because, from the antecedents of Islamic history, Islam was riddled with bloodshed, like the Riddah wars and the killing of those who left Islam when it gained dominance in Madinah. The verses revealed in Madinah became more about fear and control.

There are hadiths like “Kill those who leave Islam (Sahih al Bukhari 6922),” “The punishment for apostasy is execution”(Sahih al Bukhari 3017) and Quran verses like Quran 2:193, “Fight them until there is no more disbelief and religion is only for Allah.”

Sometimes, I wonder what Muslims fear about ex-Muslims to the extent of supporting the killing of apostates. I always thought Muslims hated injustice, but it seems they only hated it when it was done to them. If Islam is truly the “religion of peace”, as they claim, why does it need executions to survive? If its truth is self-evident, why must doubters be silenced with blood?

The early Muslims died for their right to choose. Today, Islam denies that same right to others. That is not faith, but it is fear lurking in the corridors of the belief system.

It is sickening to realise the double standards when it comes to Islam, as from its antecedent, early Muslims challenged the “toxic Jahilliyah system”, and they were not silenced as “Quraysyophobic”. But when ex-Muslims today challenge toxic Islamic dogma, they are labelled Islamophobic. Islam is an idea - not a race, not an ethnicity. It can and must be scrutinised and criticized like any other belief system.

Since when did rejecting ideas become persecution? Since when did blasphemy laws become religious rights?

Furthermore, ex-Muslims live in fear in the closet today as they hide their disbelief because leaving Islam means death in many Muslim-majority countries. Critics stay silent, terrified of being smeared as “bigots” or “Islamophobes”. Meanwhile, Islam enjoys a privilege no other ideology gets - immunity from scrutiny.

It is funny how Muslims celebrate when people enter Islam, calling it “reversion to the truth.” but when someone leaves Islam, suddenly it is treason punishable by death.

How is this not pure hypocrisy?

Now the question is, “Will Muslims ever acknowledge this hypocrisy? Or will they keep pretending their faith is beyond criticism while replicating the persecution they once fled?
