‘All Nigeria Institutions Including Military are Terribly Compromised’ – Ex Minister Oby Ezekwesili Speaks on Worsening Insecurity, Mass Abductions
Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, has berated President Bola Tinubu over the rising insecurity in the country, stating that the failure to protect Nigerian children is the highest form of acceptance of illegitimate governance.....TAP TO CONTINUE READING
Naija News reports that Ezekwesili, in a post via ?? on Monday, blamed the country’s worsening insecurity and repeated mass abductions of schoolchildren on “Cancerous level systemic corruption that metastasized into our country’s political culture is totally imploding Nigeria.”
The co-convener of the BringBackOurGirls Movement said corruption had so eroded Nigeria’s foundational values that key institutions, including the military and the judiciary, had become terribly compromised and incapable of delivering their mandates.
While citing data from UNICEF and Save the Children, Ezekwesili stated that over 1,680 students were abducted in 70 attacks between 2014 and 2022, while another 816 students were taken in 22 attacks between 2023 and November 2025.
She added that after more than a decade of advocacy amid the abduction of the Chibok schoolgirls in 2014, outrage no longer feels adequate, describing the recurring kidnappings as evidence of state failure rather than isolated security breaches.
Ezekwesili emphasised that the persistent attacks were proof of state collapse in its most basic duty, “ the protection of our greatest human asset- our children.”
She wrote, “Failing to Protect Nigerian Children is the Highest Acceptance of Governing without Legitimacy, Mr President. Connecting the dots can oftentimes be difficult for some people. Cancerous level systemic corruption that metastasized into our country’s political culture is totally imploding Nigeria.
“All our institutions including our once strong military and judiciary are now so terribly compromised and incapable of delivering on their mandate. Why? Endemic Corruption gradually ate up the very Values on which they were founded and once functioned and rendered them the impotent institutions we now know. Oh, how often we warned that the disregard for Good Governance would be the undoing of our country!
“UNICEF and Save the Children data show more than 1,680 students abducted in 70 attacks between 2014 and 2022, with a further 816 students taken in 22 attacks just between 2023 and November 2025.
“After more than a decade of holding government accountable for the preventable atrocities committed against Nigeria’s school children, one has reached a point where outrage no longer feels adequate and repetition feels like an insult to the memory of the lost.
“The latest group of abducted children are not just hostages of terrorists; they are hostages of the unforgivable failure of governments and political class that refuse to be moved, and to a people whose empathy has been steadily eroded.
“The children’s abductions are not “incidents.” They are proof of state collapse in its most basic duty- the protection of our greatest human asset- our children. After ten years since ChibokGirls, the Government of Nigeria has forfeited any claim to ignorance, surprise, or learning curve.
“What we have is deliberate negligence, and deliberate negligence is a crime. Let it be known that to continue to govern without rescuing all our abducted children and protecting the rest in their schools is the highest acceptance of the President of Nigeria that he governs without Legitimacy.”

“Please keep pushing the news that Ven. Edwin Achi’s wife Sarah Achi is still in captivity. Their captors recently uploaded a picture of her and daughter, with a gun pointed at them. Their demands are incoherent at this point,” he wrote.

A heartwarming act of kindness by Senator Natasha Hadiza Akpoti has captured hearts on social media after she surprised her long-time domestic staff, Abdul Bambamba, with a home of his own.....TAP TO CONTINUE READING
Abdul, a skilled plaster-of-Paris (POP) artisan, had been contracted to work on a building, unaware that he was actually constructing his future home, the emotional revelation left him in tears of disbelief and gratitude.
In her words, she said:
“This particular house has a special story behind it, and the owner does not know it belongs to him. His name is Abdul Bambamba. He is actually an uncle to my children. I was married to his relative.
Even though the marriage failed, Abdul remained committed to me. He always cared for me and the children, even before I met my husband now. He has been a very special person to me.”
The gesture was more than just a gift; it was a recognition of years of loyalty and unwavering support. According to Senator Natasha, Abdul is more than an artisan, he is a family.
Even after her previous marriage ended, Abdul remained a steadfast presence, looking after her and her children through difficult times and significant milestones.
Overwhelmed by his humility, kindness, and steadfast loyalty, Senator Natasha decided to honor him in a way he would never expect: by giving him a home he had helped build with his own hands.
