Peter Obi Narrowly Escapes Plane crash in Lagos Airport

A major tragedy was narrowly avoided on Tuesday afternoon when an Air Peace flight (P47123) carrying over 100 passengers—including Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi—encountered a terrifying landing experience at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport (Local Wing) in Lagos.

According to eyewitness reports, the flight, which departed Abuja at 12:59 PM (24 minutes behind schedule), ran into heavy turbulence while attempting to land in Lagos. Originally scheduled to touch down at 1:55 PM, the plane only managed to land at 2:25 PM after a frightening 30-minute ordeal in the air.

Passengers on board described the moment as “a near-death experience.” The plane reportedly struggled to stabilize and hovered dangerously above residential areas, forcing the pilot to make several failed attempts before finally landing.

"It was scary. The aircraft was going up and down like it had lost control. People were praying, crying, some even casting out demons," said one passenger.

Peter Obi, who was flying in economy class, was praised by many passengers for his calmness during the chaos. “He kept encouraging us to stay calm and have faith. It was comforting to see him composed even in the middle of fear,” another passenger shared.

In the first-class section, businessman Dr. Benson Onuwaje reportedly stood up to pray for the safety of everyone onboard. “He encouraged people to trust God. His words gave many of us hope,” said another survivor, Mathew Adekunle.

This incident has reignited concerns about aviation safety in Nigeria. Some passengers expressed fears that if the plane had crashed with a figure like Peter Obi on board, the consequences would have been grave for the nation.

Peter Obi had just concluded a visit to flood-affected communities in Northern Nigeria, where he donated N20 million in support. He returned to Abuja for a political engagement before flying to Lagos, where the incident occurred.

"We thank God for saving us," a relieved passenger said. "It could have been a different story today. But God protected us—including Peter Obi.”

As of now, the aviation authorities are yet to release an official statement. Investigations into the cause of the turbulence and the near-crash are ongoing.

You Won’t Hear Him Coming… Until It’s Too Late.

Beneath the still surface, a silent war machine waits.

This is the crocodile — a relic of prehistoric power, older than extinction itself. A survivor of epochs. A master of stillness.

There’s no ripple. No sound. No heartbeat loud enough to betray him.
Only his eyes break the water’s surface — unblinking, calculating.

His mind isn’t distracted by emotion.
It’s tuned to physics: angles, timing, distance, splash radius.
He waits, not out of laziness, but discipline.

Because when he moves, the moment is over.
It’s not a chase.
It’s not a struggle.
It’s an ambush.

In a blur of violence, jaws explode from the water — over 3,000 pounds of bite force slam down with prehistoric certainty. Bones snap. Air disappears. The victim doesn’t even scream.

Then he’s gone again.
Vanished beneath the surface, where silence reigns once more.

This isn’t just stealth.
It’s perfection refined by millions of years.
It’s patience honed into a weapon.

The crocodile doesn’t chase you.
He waits until your next step becomes your last.

Nature didn’t forget how to build monsters.
It just stopped needing to improve this one.

Niger Flood Tragedy: Over 100 dead, dozens missing, over 50 building destroyed

A devastating flood that struck Mokwa Local Government Area in Niger State has claimed the lives of over 100 people, with more than 100 others still missing as of Friday.

At least 44 of the victims were buried on Friday, following the earlier burial of 31 bodies recovered earlier in the week.

The disaster occurred on Wednesday night amid a torrential downpour that lasted several hours.

The resulting floodwaters overwhelmed the area, submerging homes and sweeping away everything in their path. Families have launched desperate searches for missing loved ones as rescue operations continue.

Deputy Governor of Niger State, Mr Yakubu Garba, confirmed the death toll during a visit to Mokwa on Friday, stating, “I have been briefed by officials from NEMA and NSEMA , who have been on ground since the incident occurred for search and rescue operations. I was told that over 100 people lost their lives and some have yet to be buried as search and rescue operations are still ongoing.”

Addressing survivors at an Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camp, Garba urged patience, assuring that the government was organizing the distribution of relief materials. He confirmed that materials from NEMA had already been handed over to the council chairman for onward delivery to the victims.

Mrs Zubaida Umar, Director-General of NEMA, also confirmed that agency officials were coordinating search and rescue efforts on-site.

One survivor, Anas Usman, shared his harrowing experience with the News Agency of Nigeria: “We were preparing to go to the farm in the morning when our house was suddenly submerged by floods; we did not know where the flood came from. The flood submerged our house, causing the structure to collapse. We lost children, women and men, who are family members.”

The Director-General of NSEMA, Baba-Arah, provided further details about the scale of the destruction, noting that the flood—triggered by prolonged rainfall—swept away over 50 residential buildings and their occupants.

According to Baba-Arah, “NSEMA received a report of a deadly flood disaster that ravaged two communities, Tiffin Maza and Anguwan Hausawa, in Mokwa town, Mokwa LGA.

In response, the agency, in collaboration with Mokwa local government authorities, local divers, and brave volunteers, launched a search and rescue operation to save lives and recover the dead. So far, 21 corpses have been recovered, while 10 persons remain missing. Three survivors, a woman and her two children, are currently receiving treatment for injuries and shock at the Mokwa General Hospital.”

Reacting to the disaster, Jonathan Vatsa, Senior Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to Governor Mohammed Bago, said the flood had destroyed the only road connecting the North to the South-West and plunged the entire state into mourning.

He emphasized the need for urgent federal intervention, saying, “We cannot ascertain the exact number of people who died. In fact, we are still waiting for a full report from the area before issuing a formal statement. You see, this is an act of God, a natural disaster. It is beyond human control or imagination. In the last 30 to 40 years, residents of Mokwa have never witnessed anything like this.”

Vatsa added, “It is unfortunate that when things like this happen, lives are lost. The state government and His Excellency are condoling with the families of the deceased, the paramount ruler of Mokwa, and the entire community. His heart and sympathy are with them. Don’t forget, this is his zone.”

He also revealed that, “As I speak to you, the report reaching us is that the Ilorin road has been cut off. That shows the scale of devastation caused by the flood. The Federal Government must intervene. This is far beyond what the state can handle. In fact, the Tatabu Bridge, our only link between the North and the South-West, has collapsed. That road is the only access route to the South-West from this axis. So, the entire state is in mourning, not just the people of Mokwa.”

This disaster echoes previous incidents in recent years. In 2022, over 600 people were killed and more than 1.3 million displaced by flooding across Nigeria, and similar events occurred last year.

In response to the Mokwa tragedy, President Bola Tinubu has directed NEMA and security agencies to intensify rescue and relief operations.

A statement by the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, noted that the President had been fully briefed and was deeply concerned.

“The immediate priority of the Federal Government is to save lives and provide urgent relief to survivors. The National Emergency Management Agency, in collaboration with the Nigerian Armed Forces and the Niger State Government, is working around the clock to ensure that no effort is spared in assisting those affected,” Idris stated.

The Federal Government also praised first responders and local volunteers for their swift action and urged residents to cooperate with emergency personnel.

“We urge residents in the affected communities to cooperate fully with emergency personnel and comply with all evacuation instructions. Our thoughts and prayers are with the bereaved families and all those impacted by this tragedy. The Federal Government extends its deepest condolences to the victims’ families. In this time of sorrow, the nation stands united in grief and solidarity,” the minister concluded.

Nigeria is Radicalizing the Igbo, One Injustice at a Time by Abolaji Rasaq

Posted by

May 16, 2025

There’s something about persecution that does two things to a people: it either breaks them, or it makes them beasts of survival.

For centuries, they were hunted, hated, and humiliated by empires. But they didn’t vanish. They evolved. They adapted. And today, the Jews are arguably the most powerful tribe in the world economically, intellectually, and politically. Ruthless when necessary.

They are unapologetic about their survival. Now, look at the Igbo. A tribe known for industry, resilience, and brilliance. A people who just want to live, do business, and thrive. But Nigeria doesn’t want that. Nigeria wants control.


Nigeria wants submission. And the one thing the Igbo have never known how to do is bow. And that’s the real issue. So what does Nigeria do? It sidelines them. Isolates them. Provokes them. Bombs their villages under the guise of security.

Locks up their agitators. Shuts down their businesses. Mocks their pain. Ignores their history. Prevent them from voting. Playing politics with their education. Sponsored gigotry on them. And then Nigeria pretends to be surprised that there’s growing radicalization in the East?

Let me be clear: The Igbo didn’t start this fire. Nigeria did. And history, the very same history we keep refusing to learn from, has shown us that when you keep pushing a tribe that knows how to survive, they evolve into something stronger, something unstoppable.

It’s happened before. With the Jews. Europe tried to exterminate them. Instead, they became the backbone of global finance, media, tech, and diplomacy. You don’t touch a Jew today without consequences. You don’t push them to the wall and expect them to stay quiet.

Now Nigeria is doing the same to the Igbo, pushing, prodding, provoking. But here’s the warning: when you push an animal to the wall, it doesn’t stay calm. It fights back. It bites. And this time, when it bites, don’t act shocked.

But this isn’t just about the Igbo solely. Nigeria has perfected the art of creating monsters, then acting surprised when they bite. The Niger Delta? Radicalized. The region was exploited for oil, polluted beyond repair, and ignored until their youths picked up arms.

The Fulani terrorists? Radicalized. Left behind by the same government that claimed to represent them, now manipulated by religion and resentment.

The Almajiri? Radicalized. Abandoned by an elite that used their poverty as a vote bank and then left them to rot. The Agbero? Radicalized. Uneducated, weaponized, and unleashed as tools of political chaos.

Even the middle class is slowly being radicalized, not with guns, but with hopelessness. That, too, is a ticking time bomb.

A nation cannot continue to marginalize its most brilliant tribe and expect peace. The Igbo are not docile. They are not quiet. They are not forgetful. They are survivors, and survivors don’t beg for space forever. At some point, they take it.

The Igbo didn’t set out to be radicals. They were made into one by a country that won’t stop seeing their confidence as a threat. You can’t keep pretending unity means silence. You can’t keep preaching peace while planting injustice.

The Igbo are not asking for too much, they just want to live, build, and grow. But if you insist on turning their dignity into defiance, their enterprise into enmity, and their survival into sedition, then you are creating a monster.

And if history has taught us anything, it’s this: when a persecuted people decide that survival is no longer enough, when they decide to stop running and start resisting, they don’t just fight back. They win.

Nigeria must understand this: you cannot keep pushing people into a corner and expect submission. When you back a lion into a wall, don’t expect it to purr. It will roar. It will claw. It will tear through anything standing between it and freedom.

So here’s the final warning, for those who still care to listen: Nigeria is radicalizing the Igbo. But worse, Nigeria is radicalizing everyone. And it won’t end well.

When the fire spreads, when the rebellion multiplies, when the beast we created begins to fight back, don’t act shocked; no tribe will be left untouched. Don’t pretend it wasn’t preventable. We all made it happen. You don’t corner a lion and expect peace.

THE POOR GIRL ALMOST SOLD HER KIDNEY FOR MONEY TO EAT — BUT SHE FOUND A BILLIONAIRE LOVER
EPISODE 3 (FINAL EPISODE)

The night Adaora tried to sell her kidney, she was nothing more than a starving girl begging life for mercy. But now, as she stood before the mirror in a cream-colored dress that flowed like water, with soft curls in her hair and a glow on her face, she almost didn’t recognize herself.

Tonight was the scholarship dinner hosted by David’s foundation. Hundreds of powerful people had gathered—politicians, CEOs, celebrities—to celebrate the charity's success. But all eyes were on Adaora.

David had asked her to give a short speech.

She was nervous. Her palms were sweaty. Her voice trembled when she started. “Six months ago,” she began, “I was on the street, ready to give up my body just to survive. Not my dignity—my kidney. I was that desperate. But someone saw me. Fed me. Gave me a bed. Enrolled me in school. Believed in me before I believed in myself. That person… is David.”

The crowd clapped, but David just smiled gently, his eyes full.

“But more than money,” she continued, “he gave me back my name. My voice. My dreams. I don’t know how to repay him. Except to never waste this chance.”

Tears filled many eyes in the audience.

After the event, they stepped outside to the rooftop garden, the Lagos skyline glowing behind them. David was quiet, unusually so.

Adaora looked up at him. “Did I say anything wrong?”

“No,” he said softly. “You said everything right.”

She smiled shyly. “Good.”

Then he turned to her fully, his voice low. “Adaora… when I first met you, I saw a fighter. A survivor. But now, I see a woman. One with purpose, fire, and a heart that refuses to give up. And I…” He paused. “I didn’t mean for it to happen, but I’ve fallen for you.”

Adaora’s eyes widened. “You what?”

“I love you.”

Silence. Her heart raced.

“David… I never thought anyone could love someone like me. Not with my past, not with the dirt I carry.”

He reached for her hand. “It’s your scars that made you beautiful. Not despite them—but because of them.”

And for the first time, Adaora allowed herself to believe it. She leaned into him, and he kissed her forehead, gently—respectfully.

Months later, the news broke everywhere: “Billionaire Marries Girl Who Once Lived on the Streets.”

Some people mocked. Some doubted. But Adaora didn’t care. Because in her heart, she knew she hadn’t been rescued.

She had been seen. Chosen. And loved.

From the edge of death to the arms of love, she had risen.

And this time, she would never fall again.

THE End.

Mama kunle listen to me!

Your bwest isn’t a sanitized lab—it’s a living ecosystem.
Stop scrubbing your n1pples like crime scenes every time Bobo needs to eat.

Those invisible traces on your skin?
That’s not dirt—it’s nature’s vaccine.

Your body grows microscopic warriors in every crease—
Let them march into your baby’s belly.

Every wipe steals antibodies meant to armor Bobo
against fevers, coughs, unseen storms.

Your milk isn’t just food—it’s a living elixir
brewed with GPS tracking for pathogens.

This isn’t “dirty”—this is biology outsmarting science
since the dawn of time.

Your ancestors didn’t sterilize—they trusted
flesh wisdom that raised survivors.

You’re not feeding a baby—you’re programming
an immune system with k1sses.

Let your skin teach his gut how to conquer worlds.
Put down the wipes. Pick up your power.

The healthiest meals are served straight from the source.
