Nigeria stands today at the edge of a dangerous precipice. Decades of misrule, corruption, tribalism, and religious manipulation have held Africa’s most populous nation hostage. Instead of marching forward as a united people, we are divided by artificial boundaries, indoctrinated by colonial mentalities, and distracted by ethnic and religious sentiments that benefit only the political elite. In this critical moment of our national history, it is imperative that Nigerians urgently discard the shackles of tribe, tongue, and religion, and rally together for a new beginning. That new beginning lies in a revolutionary movement led by Omoyele Sowore, a man whose courage, integrity, and unwavering commitment to the Nigerian people stand unmatched in our political landscape.

The Failure of the Nigerian System

For over sixty years, Nigeria has been governed by a ruling class that thrives on division. Politicians exploit ethnic and religious identities to win elections, but once in power, they govern only for themselves. They loot public resources, destroy public institutions, and leave the common man in deeper poverty. Power outages, unemployment, insecurity, dilapidated schools, hunger, police brutality, inflation, and broken hospitals are now the everyday reality of the average Nigerian.

The current system is not failing, it has already failed. What we need is not another election that legitimizes oppression. We need a revolution of values, systems, and leadership.

Why Tribe and Religion Must No Longer Divide Us

The colonial masters who created Nigeria did so with a singular aim: divide and rule. That formula was inherited by successive Nigerian leaders who realized they could control the people more easily when they are divided. As long as Hausa blames Yoruba, Yoruba blames Igbo, and the Middle Belt remains marginalized, the elite will continue to loot with impunity.

We must realize that hunger knows no tribe, that insecurity does not discriminate based on religion, and that joblessness does not care about language or region. The same fuel price affects both the Christian in Jos and the Muslim in Kano. The same police brutality oppresses both the Igbo trader in Onitsha and the Tiv farmer in Benue.

It is time to unite not as Northerners or Southerners, Christians or Muslims, Ijaw or Fulani, Isoko or Urhobo, but as Nigerians who have suffered enough and now demand a future built on justice, equity, and human dignity.

Why Sowore? Why Now?

Omoyele Sowore is not a career politician. He is a lifelong activist, a fearless journalist, and a tireless advocate for the oppressed. He has been arrested, brutalized, and imprisoned by the same system that many politicians serve. He has never stolen public funds, never compromised the truth, and never betrayed the people.

As the founder of Sahara Reporters, Sowore exposed corruption at the highest levels. As the convener of the #RevolutionNow movement, he reminded us that power belongs to the people, not politicians. He has consistently spoken for the voiceless and stood with the oppressed, even when it cost him his freedom.

What Sowore offers is not just political ambition. He offers a vision, a Nigeria where education is free and qualitative, where hospitals function, where the youth are empowered, where security is restored, and where wealth is not hoarded by a few but shared by all.

He does not rely on godfathers. He does not campaign with stolen money. His candidacy is a call to conscience: a revolution with ballots, not bullets.

The Revolution Must Be Now

The longer we wait, the deeper we sink. The political elite will not save us, they have never done so. Change must come from the streets, from the classrooms, from the markets, from the youth, from workers, students, artisans, and farmers. It must come from us.

This is not a campaign for one man, it is a movement for national salvation. It is a call to all Nigerians, from Lagos to Maiduguri, from Calabar to Sokoto, from Onitsha to Abeokuta: drop your tribe, drop your prejudice, drop your fear. The time to rise is now.

Support Omoyele Sowore. Support a new Nigeria.

We are the generation that must end this cycle of failure. We must not pass this burden of suffering to our children. The revolution that Nigeria needs will not come from outside, it will come from within us.

Let us unite, not because we are the same, but because we have the same enemy: poverty, corruption, injustice, and bad governance. And let us march behind a man who has proven that he will not sell us out, a man whose vision is rooted in justice, freedom, and equality.

The hour is late. The moment is urgent. Nigeria must rise. Revolution now. Sowore for President.
