From the videos we saw, this lady and her late husband were being held with some other kidnapped victims.

Since you engaged the terrorists and they ran away, where are the other victims?

It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby — a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist — to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display in the Hope and Change lobby at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.

Who told IMF that revenue is our problem? What is the point of revenue when stealing is unmatched?

But fr, that bastard said he immediately removed fuel subsidy so the Government can inject the money into other things..

Almost 4 years in and the average Nigerian still cannot feel the positive impact of subsidy removal. Bro removed it so his cronies can steal it.

[Chetuya Chinagolum @Chetuyachinago]

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu just provided further details on his heavily hyped Renewed Hope Agenda, and the sheer mathematics of this project is deeply disturbing, especially since this mega scheme is aggressively marketed as a lifeline to better the lives of ordinary Nigerians.

In the quoted tweet below, President Tinubu claimed that exactly ₦128 billion in mortgages has been generously delivered to 1,859 families at a fixed interest rate of 9.75% spread over 20 long years through the Ministry of Finance Incorporated.
On the surface, this looks like the ultimate utopian dream project, primarily because a 9.75% mortgage rate is ridiculously low, especially when you compare it to the predatory standard market rates which presently sit anywhere between 20%, 25%, 30%, or even higher depending on the bank.
However, even with this seemingly charitable low interest rate, a simple, cold mathematical breakdown instantly exposes that these supposed affordable homes are entirely out of reach for the average, hardworking Nigerian in whose very name this multibillion Naira PR project is being violently advertised.

To see this blatant scam, simply divide ₦128 billion among 1,859 families, and you will rapidly discover that the average mortgage size is a staggering, eye-watering ₦68.8 million per home. Now, under the exact terms quoted by Tinubu, which is 9.75% interest over 20 years with a mandatory 10% equity contribution of roughly ₦6.8 million, a single family would have to reliably cough up roughly ₦600,000 to ₦650,000 every single month just to service this impossible mortgage.

This mathematical reality clearly demonstrates that the policy architects behind this Renewed Hope Agenda have completely, and spectacularly lost their minds, their touch with reality, and their basic common sense.
First of all, the brand new minimum wage recently signed into law in Nigeria is an alleged, highly disputed ₦70,000, which is an insulting amount that many state governors claim they cannot even afford to pay, sustain, or budget for. Even with this symbolic, poverty-level wage, the average Nigerian that these houses are supposedly built for would genuinely need to starve, save every single kobo, and work for one full uninterrupted year just to afford a single one-month mortgage repayment. Currently, absolutely no middle-class citizen in Nigeria with an honest, verifiable, and legitimate source of living can ever afford to burn this massive amount every month for a house, no matter how stupid, lavish, or financially reckless they want to be.

Now this begs the incredibly obvious, screaming question: why on earth is the Tinubu administration deliberately wasting ₦128 billion (a massive $90 million) to provide subsidized affordable housing to a tiny fraction of 1,859 families who are obviously loaded with cash, highly connected, financially immune, and can easily afford luxury apartments, fund their own private estates, secure massive commercial bank loans, or buy premium properties outright?
This ridiculous allocation of scarce public funds makes zero strategic sense because the exact amount quoted for this vanity project is comfortably enough to buy about 4 highly advanced MQ-9 Reaper drones, fully equip them, heavily arm them, and ship them straight to the bleeding frontlines of Northern Nigeria.
These military-grade drones can stay airborne for 30 continuous hours, monitor the entire terror-infested forests in Borno in less than one hour, track moving targets, and violently update the Nigerian military in real time for any mass gatherings of armed bandits, hostage holding areas, illegal gold mining operations, or cross-border insurgent movements.

The colossal amount of money involved in this project is not merely the ₦128 billion senselessly wasted so far. Obviously, before this entire grand, systemic money laundering scheme is fully completed, more than ₦320 billion will have magically vanished, migrated, and evaporated from the Nigerian Treasury directly into the bloated private offshore accounts of ghost contractors, corrupt civil servants, APC campaign financiers, loyal party chieftains, and the ruling party's untouchable inner circle.

This is complete madness. Our brave men in uniform are constantly being taken by surprise, ambushed, and rounded up by ragtag terrorists simply because their vulnerable forward operating bases do not come equipped with basic acoustic sensors, infrared thermal cameras, night vision goggle, or basic aerial reconnaissance drones to serve as early warning mechanisms. Yet the Commander in Chief is cheerfully burning hundreds of billions of Naira under the guise of public welfare, deliberately laundering public treasury funds into the deep back pockets of shady construction companies, and happily providing heavily subsidized affordable housing to his ultra-rich, highly privileged, and politically connected friends.

Two bad Nigerian behaviours that get me mad. One has been addressed here. The other is people put in charge deliberately making innocent people commit an offence (even where there's no adequate warning) just so they can profit. A policemen can see you hesitating to enter a road..

Almost none of the boats in that photo are owned by a person. Each one belongs to a company that exists only to hold the boat, registered on a tiny island, with a stranger’s name on the paperwork. That is how you keep a 300-foot yacht in public and your own name out of it.

This is completely legal, and it is the normal way these boats are owned. Once a yacht passes about 100 feet, it is almost always wrapped inside one of these companies. The boat is easy to see. Tracing it back to the person who paid for it is the hard part, and that is the whole point.

When someone says these owners are not on any rich list, they are right, and the reason is dull. Forbes only ranks money it can prove. Their 2026 list has a record 3,428 billionaires worth $20.1 trillion between them, and an army of reporters digs through company filings, court records, and leaks to pin down every number. But a fortune tucked away the way these boats are cannot be proven, so it never reaches the page. As far as the rankings know, that fortune does not exist.

The owners do stay hidden. The money itself, though, has been counted, down to a number. A Berkeley economist named Gabriel Zucman worked out a neat trick: money in hiding leaves a gap in a country’s books, like a missing puzzle piece, and you can measure that gap. Using his method, the charity Oxfam reported this April that $13.25 trillion is sitting offshore, in accounts overseas built for secrecy. That is more than the whole world economy makes in a month. Around $3.55 trillion of it never gets taxed at all, more than the entire economy of France. The very richest people, about one in a thousand, hold roughly 80 percent of that untaxed pile. On its own, it is worth more than everything owned by the poorer half of the planet, all 4.1 billion of them.

For one weekend a year, all of that floats into a single harbor. As of early June, trackers counted 106 yachts packed inside Monaco’s main port and another 180 anchored just off the coast for the Grand Prix. One of them, a 400-foot giant called Kismet, costs 3 million euros a week just to rent.

Europe actually tried to lift the lid on who owns what. In 2018 it forced member countries to publish a public list of the real people behind each company, and reporters quickly began naming owners who had stayed out of sight. Then in November 2022 the EU’s top court closed that public access again, ruling it invaded the owners’ privacy. The lists still exist. Now you need a special reason and official permission to look.

The money is no great mystery, and the pool it sits in has been measured down to the trillion. The only thing still missing is a name to put on each boat.

Oil producers - minimum wage - gas price

Iran — $245 — $0.15
Libya — $325 — $0.25
Algeria — $150 — $0.35
Canada — $2100 — $1.50

Nigeria — $45 — $2

I could list 100 countries, including countries at war, & they have everything cheaper than Nigeria. Pls vote Tinubu in 2027. 🙏

[Ayo @Alhajirostova]

fuel is no longer subsidized. even federal universities, which are supposed to be affordable, are now expensive. we're paying a fortune for gas. housing is out of reach for many people. security is non-existent.

so what exactly is the government doing for us?
