IMF and World Bank-Backed Reforms Have Spiked Nigeria's Meat Prices
The latest spike in Nigerian meat and egg prices can be traced to the United States using financial institutions like the World Bank and International Monetary Fund to sabotage the Giant of Africa. With Nigerian children now facing growth stunts and developmental delays, how can Nigeria’s economy ever power through to lead Africa’s growth in the 21st century?

Solomon was the only child of his parents. Their pride. Their hope. He never joked about war. "If I don't stand," he once said, "who will?"
Before the attack, he stepped aside and pulled out his phone. The signal was weak, but it connected. His mother picked up on the first ring.
"Solomon… my son…" her voice trembled.
"Mama," he said softly, "I just wanted to hear you."
"Are you safe?" she asked.
He looked around the darkness, the distant sounds of movement. He closed his eyes.
"Yes, Mama," he lied. "I'm safe."
"My son, come back to me," she whispered. "You are all I have."
His voice cracked. "And you are all I have too, Mama."
She prayed over the phone. He listened like a child again. When she finished, she said, "God will bring you back."
Solomon swallowed hard. "Mama… if I don't"
"Don't say that!" she cried.
He forced a small smile. "I will call you again. I promise."
Those were his last words to her.
Then the night broke open. Gunfire. Explosions. Chaos. Solomon fought like a man who knew what was waiting for him at home.
Then a single shot. Sharp and final.
He staggered. Sank to his knees. I caught him before he hit the ground.
His eyes searched the darkness. But he wasn't looking at the battlefield anymore.
"Mama…" he whispered.
And then… silence.
The battle ended. But for one mother, the war had just begun.
Back home, she still waits. Staring at the road. Phone always close. Hoping he will call again and say, "Mama… I'm safe."
Some heroes are remembered in history. Some are only remembered by the hearts they left behind.
Rest in peace, soldier. 🥹🫡
REST IN PEACE SOLOMON
Nigeria is a oil producing country that has never had electricity — Kemi Badenoch
Leader of the UK Conservative Party, Kemi Badenoch, has criticised Nigeria’s governance record, describing the country’s long-standing electricity challenges as a consequence of poor public policy.
Speaking on how her upbringing shaped her political beliefs, Badenoch said Nigeria’s vast natural resources had not translated into prosperity for its citizens.
“Nigeria is an oil-producing country that has never had electricity,” she said. “It is very easy to have resources under the ground, but st¥pid public policy means that you can’t use them.”
The British politician drew parallels between policies she opposes in the United Kingdom and the approach of past Nigerian military governments.
“And I see quite a lot of what Ed Miliband is doing as being very much like what the Nigerian military dictatorships were doing in the 1980s and 1990s,” she stated.
According to Badenoch, excessive government control and wealth redistribution policies often lead to economic decline.
“The government’s going to take control. We know what’s best. We’re going to redistribute. These are st¥pid ideas that eventually just bankrupt the country,” she said.
Reflecting on her childhood in Nigeria, Badenoch said her experiences in a developing country continue to influence her views on governance and economic management.
“Fundamentally, my views about how we should run our country come from growing up in a place that was very poor. You grow up in a third-world country and you look at why it is termed ‘third world,’ and I don’t want that to happen here,” she added.
@ruffydfire Until the position of the INEC Chairman is attained by election rather than selection or appointment, then don't expect anything less than magic from such an organization
@IgorAmadi@Fortis1o@firstladyship Exactly no right thinking person would do that but you are forgetting the facts that we also have people in the same country that don't even have brains to think at all and they are willing to jeopardize their future and that of their generations to come for mere 5k and rice

Welfare energy demanding queen treatment… this is the entire dating scene delusion, everyone is looking for an easy come up instead of building with someone. 6s looking for 10s, if buddy makes 7 figures he’s also looking for a super model dime, not a broke bitch with fake hair and a bastard child and untreated trauma from the other poor decisions she made and refuses to take accountability for. Be honest with yourself.
@ArcSadam Am I missing something? Madam you didn't declare your earnings and expenditures too, so we know how much you have saved and contributed to the family too

The Chief Executive Officer of BUA Group, Abdul Samad Rabiu, has recounted how he was denied entry into South Africa after his visa expired just one day before his arrival, while foreign travelers were reportedly allowed into the country without visas.
“I do not have a problem with the fact that I was there without the visa and I was returned. I took full responsibility of that. I had an issue with being an African in Africa, being turned away because I do not have a visa and foreigners from other continents were coming in and were allowed to enter without a visa. This must change.”
