I’m going to do one of these threads.
A collection of what I call SK’s (Sentence keepsakes) from stories, tweets, articles, poems, etc that lingered long after I read them thrice...

The Fidelity Bank (Nigeria) umbrella made me smile …..
Seun, you're such a lazy journalist. Imagine allowing these charlatans and pant washers come to your studio and lie against Peter Obi and you do not fact check them. Below is picture of Peter Obi leaving Anambra state Internal Revenue service on invitation of Chief tax officer as regards his taxes. This picture has been on the internet for years and I'm sure you've come across it before, yet you sit back and give jigolos platform to malign Obi.

First of all, don’t take lessons on good journalism from Kevin Taylor’s enabler. Also, if it’s about accountability, journalism OUGHT to be ADVERSARIAL to justify itself. Rapprochement and camaraderie won’t save it Sometimes, “working together” means a rambunctious call-out too
“As a trained journalist myself, I believe that it pushes the limits of media zealotry when a journalist publicly challenges a minister to call into his show to expose him over a so-called discrepancy that the journalist has discovered. We must work together in the spirit of civility and decorum to uphold the public interest.” President John Dramani Mahama made the remarks at the GJA Media Awards, cautioning journalists against what he described as media zealotry. #PresidentMahama #GJAMediaAwards #Journalism #MediaFreedom #GhanaNews #ChannelOneTV #CitiFM

"I have suspended the party. The executives are corrupt. Always looking for an excuse to beg for money. Funeral this, funeral that. One chairman, his mother died three times." --- "Chuck" Kofi Wayo, Politician & Alleged Arms Dealer

Colom went all-in criticizing the tariffs and how it hurts farmers. Mike Espy, who ran for this same seat, was Agriculture Secretary under Bill Clinton and talked about how he opened Mississippi to markets around the globe. Trade was a net-plus for many farmers.
Stories like Michael’s are becoming far too common for our farmers. Mississippi farmers are hurting, and we need a Senator who will stand up for them and demand more. Mississippi Farmers Matters! youtu.be/0CI92pw0bgk

But also, the narcissism and arrogance of Ndlozi. He only left politics in 2025. He resigned from parliament in January 2025. The last election he campaigned and mobilized voters for was 2024. So the political landscape and democratic process was fine because of his presence and now, a year and a half later, it is not worth his time because he has left? It was ruined when he left? Nxm. And why did he need to make a public announcement?
He is definitely right about Doctor Ndlozi. An entire PhD holder and self proclaimed activist making an argument against voting. And then wants to be taken seriously when he makes pro illegal immigration arguments.

Things Fall Apart. He’s a ball knower!
Scott Colom told reporters yesterday that his favorite book is Anna Karenina by Tolstoy. He also enjoys War and Peace, the Robert Caro books and Things Fall Apart. Probably his worst take is he doesn’t enjoy James Baldwin’s novels, but everyone’s allowed a few bad opinions.

Imagine a local leader I voted for going around to ensure that the chronic water shortages I face are addressed. Organizing the municipality to see how we can help each other put in place temporary solutions while we await national resources. Vote DCEs now. Real elections

It’s quite sad really
At what point does an organisation say stop, for the sake of leaving a great legacy for those coming after us, let us do things differently? #LGE2026

Readers are leaders 😄
I had a great time stopping by two Jackson staples: Offbeat, a cool local record shop, and Marshall’s Music & Bookstore, the oldest Black-owned bookstore in the country. Of course I left with a new record for my wife and picked up a book for my daughters. Small businesses are a source of pride in our communities and a big part of what makes Mississippi special. In the U.S. Senate, I’ll work to make sure our entrepreneurs and small business owners have the support and resources they need to keep our local economies thriving.
