For further context, this is the same fellow who was practically orgasmic over ICE killing Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse. If he were a member of the Nigerian security forces with that same attitude toward human life, I doubt he would think twice about using that power against people he disagrees with.
I genuinely do not understand why some of you think his attendance at my wedding somehow places me under an obligation to defend him. 😂😂😂
No wonder people’s votes can so easily be bought with a sachet of Indomie. A simple social interaction with a politically exposed individual, and suddenly, in your eyes, he becomes a demigod who must never be questioned or criticized.
For the umpteenth time, he is not my friend and never will be. Attending my wedding does not give anyone immunity from criticism, nor does it mean I endorse their politics, character, or conduct.
Had I known the extent of his political extremism and the views he holds, I would never have invited him to my wedding in the first place.
Some of you really need to learn the difference between social courtesy, friendship, and blind loyalty.
Life is funny, @Dominicugo. When you arrived in the U.S. in 2024, you reached out because you barely knew anyone and did not want to feel alone at your wedding. Apparently, your wife was born here and, according to what you told me unprompted, you married her for papers after spending years stuck in Mexico and the UK.
In the spirit of nwanne and onye aghana nwanne ya, I booked a flight from Florida and rallied people to celebrate with you. At least five people I invited attended. We showed up with love, gifts, and money. I barely knew you, but kindness has never required familiarity. I had received love, and I wanted to pass it on. It is my nature to always and consistently show love. Alot of people can attest. That's who I am.
As I left your reception, I learned that Onyx had died. May her soul rest in peace. That day holds both the memory of showing up for you and the pain of losing her. Anytime I see your handle, I am reminded of her.
For months, you have responded to my views with insults and false claims about me. I can tolerate this behavior from random Twitter handles. When they are done, they will crawl back to their hole. The lies doesn't even bother me.
You have my number. Whatever our differences, we could have discussed them over a beer. I believe knowing someone beyond this app should count for something. I guess I was wrong.
You owe me no agreement, but I deserve basic respect. I never imagined that someone I helped feel less alone would turn around and treat me this way consistently unprovoked.
So I ask, if I am the person you now portray, why was I the person you called when you needed people to stand beside you, nna?
I think it’s important to clarify a few things, because this goes beyond the exchanges people are seeing here.
One thing I absolutely detest is people who cannot tolerate the very treatment they routinely dish out to others. If you feel comfortable making sweeping judgments about people’s lives, choices, and motivations, you should be equally prepared to have your own views and conduct scrutinized.
For context, I met Afam here on Twitter. We didn’t know each other personally. I casually invited him to my wedding, he enthusiastically accepted, and I genuinely appreciated his presence. However, attending my wedding does not mean we suddenly became close friends, nor does it create an obligation for our opinions to align.
We’ve had serious disagreements outside this particular exchange, and I’ve long been aware that our political perspectives and values differ significantly. That, in itself, has never been my problem.
What I find particularly disturbing is the habit of talking down to fellow Nigerians and reducing their political preferences to nothing more than a desperate quest for American visas. This is especially ironic coming from someone who has personally navigated the American immigration system and pursued opportunities to establish himself here.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with seeking better opportunities abroad. What I object to is the double standard of treating one’s own immigration journey as legitimate while ridiculing others for supposedly wanting the same thing.
My criticism is not about his right to hold different political opinions. It is about the condescension, sweeping generalizations, and apparent inability to accept the kind of scrutiny he freely directs at others.
And for those attempting to turn a political disagreement into some story of personal betrayal, let me be clear: I appreciated his attendance at my wedding, but gratitude for a social gesture does not translate into lifelong political loyalty or immunity from criticism.
We should be able to disagree politically without inventing motives for others or expecting personal associations to silence legitimate criticism.
This might well be the last time I address this matter or engage in any further back and forth about it. I’ve made my position clear, and I have no interest in endlessly explaining the same point to people determined to misunderstand it.
Don’t mind that guy, he can never be redeemed. Someone who married an older white woman, held his wedding on a plantation as if the venue came with a reminder of where enslaved people were expected to belong then used his green card to enlist in the U.S. Army and eventually secure citizenship now has the audacity to lecture people online.
The irony is doing backflips, and the self-awareness is nowhere to be found. @General_Oluchi come and see the typical mentality of I better pass my neighbor
First of all, I did not move to the United States in 2023. Secondly, I had known my wife for many years before we got married. I did not marry her for immigration papers, so please don’t project your own circumstances onto me.
The only reason I relocated from Europe to America was because my wife preferred the climate here. She found European winters too cold, with daylight disappearing far too early. We are both accomplished individuals in our respective fields. I married my best friend, and we continue to build a beautiful life together, traveling the world and enjoying each other’s company.
Now, since you’ve decided to make my marriage a subject of discussion, perhaps you can explain why you feel entitled to question its authenticity while expecting nobody to scrutinize your own marital history. What happened to that plantation wedding you once celebrated so proudly? 😂
Yes, you were invited to my wedding, and I genuinely appreciated your presence. But attending someone’s wedding does not purchase their silence or lifelong agreement with your political opinions.
I will continue to challenge your political grandstanding, particularly your habit of speaking dismissively about Black Americans and fellow Nigerians while presenting yourself as some authority on everyone else’s choices.
This is not a setting where past associations automatically shield your opinions from criticism. You attended my wedding, and I appreciated it. That is where the obligation ends.
At this rate, I wouldn’t be surprised if your next claim is that you funded my wedding, arranged my marriage, or personally brought me to America. 😂😂
You can disagree with my politics all you want. But don’t confuse having attended my wedding with having acquired ownership of my opinions.

You didn't even look in the mirror or check your own immigration history before you made this tweet? 😅😅
If the people before you had shared the political beliefs you're championing now, you would be somewhere in Awka, dancing at a political rally, cheering for someone younger than you to earn your daily bread.
What kind of lack of self-awareness is this?

The comment session shows why Nigeria cannot choose the right leaders. If young people are so much in the dark that they don’t know that Nigeria is very much poorer than Brazil, then there is a huge problem. Can you imagine comparing a $2trillion dollar economy with multiple world class cities to Nigeria. Oh my God. Nigerians are so ignorant and even proud of it
So if they just recovered Sambisa, so what was this shitry about few years ago… the soldiers only went to recover Shekau’s flag and left Sambisa comfortably in Shekau’s hand… nigeria was, is and continues to be a simulation until we begin to tell ourselves the truth

Just visited Poland, my mother’s homeland. Last month, it became a trillion dollar economy and you can feel it. This is Warsaw👇
In 1989, when communism ended in Poland, its GDP was a mere $67bln. This has now multiplied 15x since.
In 2025, Nigeria, my fatherland, is still talking about its “potential” and struggling with a $250-$300bln GDP, despite having SEVEN times the population of Poland.
I have lived in both countries - what is the difference?
Even back when Poland was struggling in the 1990s and early 2000s, even when people were earning meagre salaries and unemployment was high, there was a functional state.
The lights never went off. The taps always ran. Buses and trains came on time. The courts functioned. A health system functioned, warts and all.
The state created the basic environment needed for people to thrive in a 21st-century economy. And the citizens largely did the rest.
Many other factors came into play in this success story, of course. But bottom line is: Without a functional state, potential is nothing.
Sadly, Nigeria and other poorly organised African countries have lagged behind while others have prospered. Nobody waits for anyone in the 21st-century.
Nobody is interested in “why we can’t or why we couldn’t” only in “this is what we can.”
Without better organisation, Nigeria and other African countries will continue to lag behind the rest of the world, with all the negative consequences of poverty, failure and disregard that comes with that.

Rare Earth Minerals stakeholders after a successful conference.
In my own opinion, give the US a favorable rare earth minerals deal in exchange for heavy military support on air and ground to destroy the terrorists killing Nigerians
Our security architecture is not adequate to eliminate the terrorism of 2025!
We need something similar to the tax committee for security!! We need to reassess and overhaul! NSA can’t handle things
The reason why they say Nigeria is the best country in the world if you have money. It even gets sweeter is small power is also added as a desert to the money

After staying in East for 5 months, Igbos have bad PR when it comes to tribalism, they are so cool to non-Igbos.

Protect @ZariyiYusufu at all costs. If more people had the guts to speak truth to power like this, half of Nigeria’s problem would’ve been solved already. Glad he looked Sheikh Gumi dead in the eye and said it. That’s real courage. Welldone bro!!!
