Chidi Odinkalu patří mezi osobnosti s vazbou na Nigérii, které Stát Izrael sleduje kvůli byznysu a občanské společnosti v africké kapitole.
Onku @okoye_festus, který byl tehdy národním komisařem v @inecnigeria, říká, že #NigeriaDecides2023 bylo #WellPackaged? Chápe vůbec, jak to zní?!
Přeloženo z jazyka angličtinaProsím, zřídil stát Benue, kterému vládne údajně celibátní katolický kněz, skutečně 7. září 2026 úřad první dámy?!

Přeloženo z jazyka angličtinaTi, kteří si myslí, že je v pořádku použít moc k zakrytí vraždy těhotné ženy a osiření jejích dětí, se budou muset před #HigherPower zodpovídat za sebe i své generace.
Přeloženo z jazyka angličtinaPo 17 letech války a téměř 350 000 nepřímých úmrtích civilistů je konflikt na severovýchodě #Nigeria ve slepé uličce. Přesto se v zákulisí dlouhodobě, byť nejistě, snaží #Nigerian vláda najít vyjednaný průlom v džihádistickém povstání. Myšlenka jednání s #BokoHaram – oficiálně Jama’at Ahl al Sunna li Da’wa wal Jihad (JAS) – a s #ISWAP, její odštěpeneckou a konkurenční větví, hluboce rozděluje Nigérii. @NigeriaGov oficiálně tvrdí, že s organizacemi právně označenými za teroristické nelze jednat. V červnu však uzavřela s #BokoHaram tříměsíční příměří, které se podle všeho drží, uvádí @newhumanitarian.
Přeloženo z jazyka angličtinaRev. Fr. @HyacinthAlia šel do semináře. Tam vyučují kanonické právo. Učební plán se nevztahuje na svobodu pohybu. Takže nemá jak vědět, že občan #Nigeria nepotřebuje jeho požehnání k cestování po zemi.
Přeloženo z jazyka angličtinaNovému předsedovi Nejvyššího soudu Spojeného království je 71 let a soudcem byl poprvé jmenován před 20 lety. V #Nigeria by už byl od loňska dávno v důchodu.
Přeloženo z jazyka angličtinaPremiér Abubakar Tarawa Balewa byl absolventem @BCZ_zaria, kde ho učil Sidney John Hogben. V roce 1964 jako premiér napsal předmluvu ke knize "Emiráty severní Nigérie" od pana Hogbena a zesnulého Tonyho Kirk-Greena z @UniofOxford. Této knize je letos 60 let. Dnes má #Nigeria na nejvyšší úrovni vůdce, který nedokáže uvést jméno jediného učitele, u něhož studoval, ani školu, kterou navštěvoval.
Přeloženo z jazyka angličtinaFrom Tanzania & Uganda to Zambia, South Sudan and Lesotho, #Africa’s leading figures of plural politics are up against the gravest of charges, & some may face the death penalty for daring to contest against incumbents. Are states confronting real threats or reaching for treason & terrorism laws against their political opponents? @Sheriffbw queries https://t.co/cNOf70bmci
Following @Uber's disengagement from #Nigeria in the past week, it looks like #Moove, the Nigeria-born unicorn that has been Uber’s vehicle financing partner in #Africa south of the Sahara, is also considering an exit from the Nigerian market. https://t.co/bayyNoldy8
The @officialEFCC cannot manage a single audited annual report to the legislature that created it but enjoys the hypocrisy of being able to demand transparency from others while operating behind a veil of secrecy regarding its own accountability. https://t.co/CGc3dzaWMC
The @OfficialAPCNg is going around threatening to kill people & snatch their wives. @inecnigeria & @PoliceNG are busy UN looking & occupying the front pages of newspapers. How unfamiliar is that? https://t.co/euSkwvlO1V
24 years after the assassination of the Onitsha branch Chairman of @NigBarAssoc, Barnabas Igwe, & his pregnant wife, Amaka, @THISDAYLIVE asks whether the @Anambrastate_ of @CCSoludo understands the burden of #DelayedJustice. https://t.co/3rSQBbYFMl https://t.co/S2mzNGOTLp
This newly inaugurated LG Chairman from Uromi is #Nigeria's political #MemeDuJour. Seriously though, the guy does something ingenious - he transforms loyalty into a transitive verb & (to be sure he is never on the wrong side) conjugates it in future continuous or predictive tense. Isn't that what #NigerianPolitics is about these days?!
Nearly a quarter of a century after the #DoubleMurder of the chairman of @NigBarAssoc in Onitsha, @Anambrastate_ng, Barnabas Igwe; & his pregnant wife, Amaka, the case remains one of the most unsettling reminders of how a determined investigation can be stalled by high-level interference. @Lawandsocietym follows the saga.
On @90minutesAfrica tomorrow, September 6, 2026, at 18.30 hrs WAT/13.30 hrs EST, I'll be joining @DrDamages. Barnabas Igwe was Chairman of @NigBarAssoc in Onitsha when he was hacked to death 24 yrs ago with his pregnant wife, Amaka. Today, a principal suspect in that crime is in charge of security in Anambra State. Are there questions to ask of answer?
In power since 2015 (11 yrs), @OfficialAPCNg has every reason to run on its record. Instead its electoral platform is violence, intimidation, killing, chopping off fingers, & stealing people's wives?! https://t.co/tx8hZnPvsp
The @OfficialAPCNg know they are in trouble. All these orchestrated threats & co-ordinated exhibition of madness is not accidental.
There is nothing like @OfficialDSSNG bans operatives from arresting folks for civil issues. The point is that no agency has any such powers. If anyone was doing that, it was patently illegal & actually unconstitutional. https://t.co/VgmyLzUYzI
#JustIn: The prosecution of former Chairman of Shendam Branch of @NigBarAssoc, @GTsenyen, for a village WhatsApp post in Plateau State, returned today to @FederalHigh in Abuja before Justice Joyce Abdulmalik.

....No sir, there were arrests by @PoliceNG ; there are names. That is why Mr. Ken Emeakayi is in issue. He was one of the people arrested. He was charged. Then things started happening....
Other countries attract FDI; #Nigeria under @officialABAT is shipping them out - Uber, Jumia, Netflix, PZ, Microsoft, Bolt Foods.... When is Tinubu visiting Nigeria next? https://t.co/aPbPO0gA6b
"....An unwritten [Security] Council custom holds that the secretary-general post should rotate among the @UN regional groups, & this cycle is widely seen as Latin America & the Caribbean’s turn. 6 of the current candidates come from the region, but 2 #African nominees are also in contention. It is also considered long time for the UN to be led by a woman, for the first time in its history, yet 3 men are competing in the race." via @pass_blue https://t.co/4awihSYJom
Remembering Barnabas Igwe, chairman of @NigBarAssoc in Onitsha, & his pregnant wife, Amaka Igwe, murdered 24 yrs ago. A principal suspect in that murder is now in charge of security in the state in which they were killed. @AtlDigest reports.... https://t.co/q8S09m4wxQ
Barnabas & Amaka Igwe, the #DoubleMurder that never got answered in #Nigeria's graveyard of #UnresolvedMurders. @NigBarAssoc @Globalrightsng @TapNitiative https://t.co/QidkRpFSZx
