NDLEA did not bust a roadside dealer.
They walked into an Ogun forest and found a Mexican-linked meth factory.
2.4 tonnes.
₦480 billion.
Three Mexican chemists.
A Nigerian financier.
Power, water, living quarters, built to stay.
Then they found a fentanyl precursor in the same site.
Nigeria is being used as a production floor, not a waypoint.
That is the story.

Good Morning Pioneers!
Do not forget to demand that the Core Team @PiCoreTeam reward Pioneers with all the unverified Pi Coins that we worked hard for and rightfully deserve—whether or not our referral circle members continue with Pi Network.
Why?
Because it was not the Pioneers' fault that referral team members left Pi Network. Instead, the delays in launching the project on the market—taking six years—caused many to lose interest.
Here’s my personal experience:
I am one of the early Pioneers, and all my referral team members are family, friends, former classmates, and co-workers. However, most of them have given up on the Pi Network project due to the long delays, thinking it was a scam or that I was daydreaming. Some lost their passphrases or changed phone numbers, and when I tried to help them, they didn’t care because they had lost faith in the project after years of waiting.
As a result, around 73% of my total Pi Coins remain unverified due to my referral circle members not completing KYC. If these coins are not awarded, I stand to lose Pi Coins worth tens of thousands of dollars at the current market price. I am sure many other Pioneers, especially early adopters, have had similar experiences.
What does the White Paper say?
Interestingly, the Pi Network white paper states:
"Anyone who contributes to network growth and Pi distribution by INTRODUCING OTHERS into the Pi Network will receive Pi rewards in the form of higher mining rates."
Nowhere does it say that Pioneers will lose their referral bonuses if their referral team members do not continue with the project.
PIONEERS, KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!
Demand what you rightfully deserve!

BROADCAST BY HIS EXCELLENCY BOLA AHMED TINUBU, PRESIDENT AND COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF OF THE ARMED
FORCES OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA ON THE NATIONWIDE PROTEST
DATE: SUNDAY 4TH AUGUST 2024
My fellow Nigerians,
1. I speak to you today with a heavy heart and a sense of responsibility, aware of the turmoil and violent protests unleashed in some of our states.
2. Notably among the protesters were young Nigerians who desired a better and more progressive country where their dreams, hopes, and personal aspirations would be fulfilled.
3. I am especially pained by the loss of lives in Borno, Jigawa, Kano, Kaduna and other states, the destruction of public facilities in some states, and the wanton looting of supermarkets and shops, contrary to the promise of protest organisers that the protest would be peaceful across the country. The destruction of properties sets us back as a nation, as scarce resources will be again used to restore them.
4. I commiserate with the families and relations of those who have died in the protests. We must stop further bloodshed, violence and destruction.
5. As President of this country, I must ensure public order. In line with my constitutional oath to protect the lives and property of every citizen, our government will not stand idly by and allow a few with a clear political agenda to tear this nation apart.
6. Under the circumstances, I hereby enjoin protesters and the organisers to suspend any further protest and create room for dialogue, which I have always acceded to at the slightest opportunity. Nigeria requires all hands on deck and needs us all - regardless of age, party, tribe, religion or other divides, to work together in reshaping our destiny as a nation. To those who have taken undue advantage of this situation to threaten any section of this country, be warned: The law will catch up with you. There is no place for ethnic bigotry or such threats in the Nigeria we seek to build.
7. Our democracy progresses when the constitutional rights of every Nigerian are respected and protected. Our law enforcement agencies should continue to ensure the full protection of lives and properties of innocent citizens in a responsible manner.
8. My vision for our country is one of a just and prosperous nation where each person may enjoy the peace, freedom, and meaningful livelihood that only democratic good governance can provide – one that is open, transparent and accountable to the Nigerian people.
9. For decades, our economy has remained anaemic and taken a dip because of many misalignments that have stunted our growth. Just over a year ago, our dear country, Nigeria, reached a point where we couldn’t afford to continue the use of temporary solutions to solve long-term problems for the sake of now and our unborn generations. I therefore took the painful yet necessary decision to remove fuel subsidies and abolish multiple foreign exchange systems which had constituted a noose around the economic jugular of our Nation and impeded our economic development and progress.
10. These actions blocked the greed and the profits that smugglers and rent-seekers made. They also blocked the undue subsidies we had extended to our neighbouring countries to the detriment of our people, rendering our economy prostrate. These decisions I made were necessary if we must reverse the decades of economic mismanagement that didn’t serve us well. Yes, I agree, the buck stops on my table. But I can assure you that I am focused fully on delivering the governance to the people - good governance for that matter.
11. In the past 14 months, our government has made significant strides in rebuilding the foundation of our economy to carry us into a future of plenty and abundance. On the fiscal side, aggregate government revenues have more than doubled, hitting over 9.1 trillion Naira in the first half of 2024 compared to the first half of 2023 due to our efforts at blocking leakages, introducing automation
This is quite sad. Why would you insult mutanen Arewa, just because Peter Obi donated a borehole to a community? I am not sure even Peter Obi will support this. This isn't very respectful. Aliko Dangote has spent over $150 million sponsoring projects across Southern Nigeria. Another Northerner, Lt. General TY Danjuma, built a $350,000 hospital in Enugu, the Goodwill Medical Centre, Enugu. Waziri Atiku Abubakar has given scholarships to many indigent Southerners. How many Northerners have you seen engaging in this type of obscene display to mock poverty stricken Southerners?
As Southerners, don't we know we are being insensitive?
Please watch the video by Chief John Nnia Nwodo. I have it and can publish it for the education of my readers. Immediately after the Nigerian Civil War, the first food relief materials that entered the defunct Biafra were from Northern Nigeria.
Do not look down on people because of their poverty, to the extent of calling them 'ungrateful pigeons'. You do not even see them as humans or mammals. Pigeons! Really?

What is currently happening in Anambra, Rivers, Kaduna, Benue, and Edo should make you appreciate Bola Tinubu. I did not say you should like him. I said appreciate him. Big difference. You can appreciate who you don't like. You can work with who you don't like. Liking is an emotion. Emotions are fleeting.
Separate yourself into three. Temporarily put aside your ego and your emotions. Then, embrace your logical side. Logic is stable. 2+2 will forever equal 4.
A man who can leave power as Governor in Lagos State in 2007, and seventeen years later still has the loyalties of the incumbent Governor of Lagos and ALL his successors, including Ambode, is a man who knows how to manage men, relationships, and resources.
Not only did he succeed with hegemony in Lagos, but he extended his reach to every state in the Southwest and, in recent times, lost only Oyo and Osun. Even at that, he has good intra-party relations with Oyo.
Obi handed over to Obiano, and they quarrelled within a month. Wike and Fubara lasted only three months. El-Rufai and Uba Sani went sour after seven months. Today, even El-Rufai's children are insulting Uba Sani. Alia and Akume did not even get up to six months. Obaseki and Oshiomhole lasted two years.
In Nigeria, ONLY Kwankwaso has been able to replicate the Tinubu magic. So far. I have to add that.
You may not like Tinubu. You may even resent the Yorubas. But you must admit that the Yorubas have used their cultural values of respect for age and authority to excellent effect in creating political stability in the Southwest. And where there is political stability, financial prosperity will follow as day follows night. The rest of us can learn, unlearn and relearn from them.
The Yoruba respect their elders even when they don't like them, because they have the ability to separate their ego and emotions from their logic and obey the Omoluabi ethos of their culture, which guarantees their future. Some people see that and call them sycophants. To them, humility is stupidity.
In Yoruba land, care goes down from the elders to the younger ones, and respect goes up from the younger ones to the elders. And that preserves their societal values.
Am I lying?
