Back from the Vatican

I have just returned from the Vatican, and it was a deeply solemn and reflective visit. My participation in the inauguration ceremony was in line with my previous witnessing of inaugurations, swearing-ins, and official ceremonies across the world, this was no exception. Such occasions carry profound moral and spiritual significance. This was never a political event and should remain untouched by politics. Some moments are best reserved for quiet contemplation.

After the inaugural Mass, I did not attend the Papal Audience and therefore did not have the opportunity to meet the Holy Father personally. That honour was reserved for heads of state and accredited diplomats. For those who desire such an encounter, the Papal Audience continues traditionally.

What should truly command our attention, however, is the content and moral force contained in the Pope’s homily, particularly his urgent call to fight poverty and promote a spirit of brotherhood that transcends ethnic, political, and religious boundaries. The deeper meaning of the gathering lies not in ceremonial gestures, but in whether those present internalised his message and will return with the resolve to act.

The fight against corruption is the essential first step toward building societies where resources are directed to what truly matters - education, healthcare, poverty alleviation, and infrastructure. These should be our major concern and the lasting message we carry home from the Vatican. May we, in whatever station we occupy, rise to the task of building a more just, comionate, and prosperous nation. -PO

Let us take example of curroption

The man who is supposed.to be Minister of Foreign affairs

I was at his HQ in Abuja 3 weeks ago

No light

They could not even buy fuel and put in generator so that people can type print photocopy or work in Ministry of Foreign affairs

And he is still dragging Bauchi Government house 2027 and looking for who to slap

The Ministry of Foreign affairs budget in voicemail

This man typifies thiefhninbiu istration

Incompetence and Cluelessness with snatch power grab it and run with it, with no clue what to do next

Mr Tuggar should never be allowed near a govt house

Where is the money saved after removing fuel subsidy?

Is Obi talking about corruption? I don't know corruption that's greater than him Obi lodging #75b of anambra state money into Fidelity bank where he's a major shareholder.

What about when he used anambra state money to buy shares in a beer company where he has major share?

If these are not corruption, then Obi should give us a his own definition of corruption.
