decades for nationwide expansion. That's exactly why decentralized solutions like mini-hydro, solar mini-grids, and small-scale generation exist.
Nobody is saying a waterwheel will power Nigeria. The point is that local generation can power homes, farms, schools, and communities

Why is 8,500 MW unavailable? Gas shortages, broken turbines, poor maintenance, vandalized infrastructure, and underperforming plants are generation issues.
Also, "40% don't have access" isn't just a transmission problem. Many rural communities are too far from the grid to wait

Woah 🤯🔥
Egyptian TV host calls out Ottoman Turkey and Muslim contributions:
“Muslims contributed nothing to the world in the 20th century.”
On the Ottomans to Europe:
“Slaughter, massacres, impaling Europeans on spears.”
Modern era? “Bombing capitals, vehicular attacks, shootings, burning people alive in cages… massacres against Christians and others across the globe.”
Fiery take from Egyptian media.

Nna shut up!
I Don’t See Much Difference Between Tinubu, Obi, And Kwankwaso, They Are Nigeria’s Problem - Ozigbo
I am saying this because the younger generation needs to wake up and stop outsourcing their destiny to people who, in some cases, have contributed to the problems of Nigeria, while expecting them to fix it. We need to remind young people that they are the ones who will ultimately rebuild this country. I have lost confidence in the older generation to drive the kind of change Nigeria needs.

St. Ahmed was a 17th-century Muslim Ottoman official who LEFT ISLAM and converted to CHRISTIANITY.
He noticed how transformed his Christian slaves were after attending church. Curious, he started investigating Christianity for himself.
He decided to secretly attend a Divine Liturgy. During the service, he witnessed a miracle that convinced him Christianity was true. Afterward, he sought baptism and became a Christian.
His conversion eventually became known. One day, while discussing religion with other officials, he reportedly declared that there was nothing greater than the Christian faith. That statement led to his arrest.
He was brought before Ottoman authorities, given opportunities to return to Islam, and ultimately refused. He was tortured and then beheaded in Constantinople on May 3, 1682.

It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby — a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist — to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display in the Hope and Change lobby at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.

Nde Nsukka, it's time to follow the footsteps of Ndi Arochukwu. Do everything you must to protect your culture and your lineage.
The amount of Muslims in Nsukka is becoming alarming.
Infact they have erected an almost giant mosque in the heart of the town.
You cannot take few steps without seeing a Fulani person even, most of the bike men are Fulani.
Now they have placed curfew because of the threats last week.
They need to WAKE UP!!

Woke policing killed Henry Nowak.
Just look at the 6 anti-racism “commitments”:
1. Take a stand against racism in all forms
2. Proactively identify & tackle “racial inequalities”
3. Reform policies that over-police or under-protect certain groups
4. Partner with others to fix societal racial gaps
5. Deliver “equality of outcomes” by treating people differently based on race,needs,experiences
6. Show transparency, leadership & measure anti-racism impact
Translation:
>do not treat everyone equally under the law
>explicitly reject colour-blind policing
>respond based on skin color and “lived experience” to engineer equal results
The police at the scene did exactly that and the outcome was an absolute tragedy.
