After a decade of sparking debates, challenging political norms, and inspiring millions, Senator Ben Murray-Bruce has officially drawn the curtain on his legendary “Common Sense” series.
Launched in 2015, the platform became a rallying point for Nigerians hungry for honest dialogue and practical solutions to the nation’s problems. In his final episode, the 500th Murray-Bruce reflected on the journey: “It’s been an extraordinary adventure rooted in a simple but powerful belief: that clear, courageous conversations can inspire real change, and that every Nigerian holds the power to shape our country’s future.”

From tackling Nigeria’s explosive population growth to advocating a shift from petrol subsidies to public transportation, the senator used his platform to address the nation’s most pressing challenges. He pushed for the “Buy Naija” campaign to protect local industries, promoted education with his “Books, Not Bullets” mantra, and called for a bold switch to clean energy, including phasing out combustion engines by 2035 in favor of electric vehicles.
Murray-Bruce also championed solar power as a pathway to jobs, economic independence, and a healthier environment, insisting that leadership was not limited to politicians but a daily responsibility for every citizen.
“From the first episode to this last moment, I’ve been inspired by the wisdom, courage, and passion of everyday Nigerians. Together, we turned ‘Common Sense’ into a movement,” he said.
While the curtain has fallen on the “Common Sense” series, the outspoken senator promises this is not the end of his national engagement. “This is not a farewell, it’s the end of a chapter. I am Ben Murray-Bruce, and for the 500th and final time, I simply want to make common sense.”
