Wait , you clowns don’t want dissenting opinions ? Everyone should praise this unfortunate administration and pretend everything is right ?
Are you guys normal ?
I earned $120K a year working for Shell in 2012.
Ten years and multiple promotions later, in 2022, that figure has doubled to $240K a year.
In 2023, I stumbled on an internal, confidential, document that showed the salaries of my superiors.
I saw that even if I were promoted multiple times again, the best I could hope for in another 10 years was another doubling to around $480K a year.
This may sound crazy saying it out loud but that wasn’t cutting it for me.
I simply didn’t want the next 10 years to be a repeat of the last 10.
I wanted geometric progression, not an arithmetic one.
On my 40th birthday, in 2023, I was asked to make a wish as a blew the candles on my birthday cake.
“Get the hell out of Shell,” I quietly whispered. Months later, I was out.
In 2024, my businesses grossed $500K; in 2025, they did $1M - geometric progression.
It required me to be delusional about my abilities, to bank on the faithfulness of God and to trust that inner voice that always nag at me that I could be more, I could do more and I could have more.
@getalifeaisha The culture is fading here and the providers aren’t maintaining/updating their facilities. SEC is so so rundown. Jabi Mall is about the only one with some sign of life.
The Senator: You are yet to implement 30% of the 2025 budget despite record revenues. The ministries said they are not being funded.
Taiwo Oyedele: Thank you very much for that important question, and then he goes in a completely different direction.
The Senator: Why is the budget not being funded and implemented?
Taiwo Oyedele: Thank you very much once again. He started talking about a different thing altogether.
We thought Taiwo Oyedele had some integrity being an ex PWC partner? Anyway, whatever Tinubu touches is destroyed.
This is the new public school in Abia State. 19 others are currently being built.
What they’re doing is transforming already existing schools into this. This is American-standard schooling.
You remember I once criticized their first smart school attempt, which the government later condemned entirely and followed this approach instead.
I’m so impressed with the Abia State Government.
They listen, and they are truly for their people.
I wish more Nigerians Did math or understood a little bit of math.
We would understand that 70k minimum wage in 2026 is way worse that 19,800 Corper allowee in 2014.
We can use our brain to calculate the decline we’ve experienced since APC took power.
I swear to almighty there is no sane country in the world where terrorists will kidnap over 80 school children as little as 2years old and keep them for one whole month, set another school ablaze and yet on Monday, other schools open like everything is fine and the people wear monkey suits and go to work like everything is fine.
Things I’m picking up from this IMF report. Our broad money velocity is 3.3
That means that in our economy we cycle through our broad money supply 3.3 times in a year. That is actually high. In developed economies it’s typical to have that number at 1.1 to 2.
3.3 means money doesn’t sit long in accounts. As it’s coming in, it’s going back out.
Paychecks are spent as they hit. Fast moving consumer goods and consumption economy.
Banking depth is low and informality is high.
What these terrorists are doing is very very calculated and coordinated.
They are systematically going after the top and retired army generals. Anyone not sympathetic to their cause is kidnapped and eliminated. And for the general masses, keep more children out of school and keep everyone scared.
They are slowly taking over the country and the president is way too obsessed with reelections to see that terrorists now run the country.
Nigeria could not rescue an Army General and his wife. Yet, within 24 hours, his body was recovered so he could be buried according to Muslim rites, while officials repeated the cause of death supplied by the terrorists themselves. And we're expected to believe this without question?
If it were youths from Plateau State parading guns for self defense like this, the military would have raided that community already and brand them as ‘Militias.’
The double standards in this country are absolutely insane. Nothing gets condemned from the North.
I don’t think Nigerians have fully understood the scale of insecurity, violence, and bloodshed occurring in this country. The frequency and number of attacks and killings are comparable to those seen in wartime.
This country is effectively in a state of war
Boko Haram members were in the Pissa community where they massacred many Nigerians but Nigerian soldiers were in Abuja preventing protesters from continuing their protest.
Insecurity: Nigeria Cannot Continue Like This
I received with deep shock and sadness the tragic death of retired Major General Rabe Abubakar, who reportedly died while in the custody of kidnappers. Earlier, before this heartbreaking news, I also received disturbing reports of renewed bandit attacks in Sokoto and Kwara States.
The armed bandits reportedly blocked a market route in Sokoto and abducted traders, while terrorists invaded communities in Kwara State, kidnapping scores of citizens and killing innocent people, are heartbreaking and alarming. These incidents are not isolated tragedies; they are clear manifestations of the deepening security crisis confronting our nation.
But particularly painful is the reported death of Major General Rabe Abubakar, a distinguished military officer who dedicated a significant part of his life to defending Nigeria and protecting its citizens. It is tragic that a man who served his fatherland with honour, rose through the ranks of the Nigerian Armed Forces, and retired after years of meritorious service, would meet such a heartbreaking end at the hands of criminal elements. His death is a national tragedy and a sobering indictment of the insecurity that has engulfed our country.
When traders can no longer travel safely to markets, farmers cannot access their farms, communities live under constant fear, and even retired senior military officers are not spared from the menace of kidnapping and violent crime, it becomes evident that our nation is facing a grave security emergency.
Security remains the foremost responsibility of any government. Every life lost, every citizen abducted, and every community displaced represent a painful failure of our collective duty to protect the Nigerian people. The recurring attacks in Sokoto, Kwara, and many other parts of the country demonstrate that insecurity is not only persisting but spreading in both scope and intensity.
I once again urge the Federal Government and our security agencies to move beyond rhetoric and adopt a more proactive, intelligence-driven, technology-based, and coordinated approach to tackling insecurity. We must strengthen our security architecture, improve intelligence gathering, secure our borders, equip and motivate our security personnel, and ensure that those responsible for these heinous crimes are apprehended and brought to justice.
A nation where citizens live in fear cannot prosper. A nation where economic activities are disrupted daily by criminal elements cannot attract investment, create jobs, or guarantee a better future for its people. We must urgently reclaim every part of our country from terrorists, bandits, kidnappers, and all criminal gangs threatening our collective existence.
My heartfelt condolences go to the family of Major General Rabe Abubakar, his former colleagues in the Armed Forces, and all Nigerians who have lost loved ones to insecurity. I also sympathise with the families of those killed, those abducted, and the affected communities in Sokoto, Kwara, and across the nation.
The recurring tragedies and embarrassing security failures we continue to witness make the quest for a New Nigeria not only necessary but inevitable. We must build a nation where every citizen can live, work, travel, and pursue legitimate economic activities without fear.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
If it can happen to high ranking military officials then it can happen to you.
Again, ask yourself who are you that it can’t happen to you.
May this or that favour me is not a way to live.
This is not normal.
Our voices need to be louder than ever.
More Than One Year Later, The $250 Million Tractors Tinubu’s Government Imported from Belarus Are Still Parked and Rotting!
It is beyond belief that more than N300 billion worth of equipment meant to empower farmers across the country are lying in waste, in Abuja, over a year after they were surreptitiously imported from Belarus.
What’s worse? See the details of the deal…!
