@Dozzy_Dozzy22@OgbajiIfeanyi Please identify a new contender and get to work in the grassroots. Your market women and townspeople, and Ndi Youth, UmuAda, Umunna, should know these things.
Target the students who are 18years and those soon to turn 18 years, and get them on board with the new contender.
@ps_wears@Ayor_mideh If you have already filed an action in court, the terms of settlement, should be filed in court as a consent judgment.
Your lawyer and his will know what to do, to make this happen.
Retweeting because this is a summary of the problem with Nigeria.
We have a large swathe of amoral intellectuals, and amongst the citizenry, even larger numbers of individuals without any integrity or moral circumference, and who also lack the ability to introspect.
These frames highlights what is WRONG with Nigeria. The “heroes” some of you look up to are SHAMELESS, UNPRINCIPLED FRAUDS, devoid of any qualities worth admiring. RENO OMOKRI, is, not only an Intellectual FRAUD, but was also accused of DEFRAUDING the administration he was a member of.
@UchePOkoye Happy Birthday Uche.
God bless you and keep you.
May He cause His face to shine on you and be gracious to you.
May He turn His countenance on you and give you peace.
Have a beautiful day.
@RBiakpara They need to distract us, because there is something happening or about to happen, they do not want us to focus on.
Or even better, to distract us from complaining about the Edo elections - until whatever angst there is dissipates.
It is the same playback every time.
What do I say that doesn't sound like empty platitudes?
How do I console my brethren in Kaduna who are murdered because they dare to profess the Kingship of Our Lord and Savour, Jesus Christ?
How can I keep mute in this face of this mind-numbing and yet unending, horror?
On 8th September, 2024, Kallah community was attacked and six people were killed, 33 were abducted but 19 escaped.
They launched their attack by attempting to kill Sarkin Kallah, Rtd Rev. Audu Makama, who narrowly escaped because he was well awake into the night before the attack. But his son was abducted and is still in captivity.
As at yesterday, 21st September 2024, when I visited the community, 14 people are still in captivity with a N700million ransom on their head. Although the abductors were demanding N10 million before 3:00pm yesterday.
I met Godiya Thomas, a grieving mother whose son was killed the same night night her husband (Rev. Thomas Gaku, minister in charge of Haske Baptist Church, Kallah) and two of her other sons were taken away.
Although we are being coached by those that "understand the situation better" to not associate these attacks with religion or call the attackers by their name, but the truth cannot be anything else - an Islamist group pouncing on a Christian community, killing people and abducting many.
An isolated community has been forgotten in their despair, with wives sons and fathers at the mercy of terrorists.
Pray for Kallah town and reach out in whatever way you can 🙏🏿
@Ugo_KelechiPhD@EmirSirdam@chymaker I take exception to this.
Yes, we have developed the fine art of refining arguments, but it is just a lie to say that having an understanding, isn't really a lawyer's skill.
Not agreeing with Mr. chymaker's position on the US elections, doesn't mean that he lacks understanding.
Put it this way: you are the US government and you have decided to invest $10bn in a railway line linking the DRC to the ocean, and you have 3 options.
Option A - Go eastward and link the DRC to the EAC and COMESA regions via Tanzania and Zambia. The East African bloc already has a comprehensive railway masterplan which has already been largely built out in Kenya, Tanzania and Ethiopia. This region also enjoys Africa's best regional trade and travel interconnectivity, and has a combined GDP topping $1trn (2024 PPP), in addition to a population exceeding 500 million with a median age of just 18.1 years. Mombassa and Dar es Salaam have excellent ports that already handle most of DRC's trade volumes. There will be multiple opportunities for basic and secondary processing of ores, capturing some of the economic benefit locally. In addition, this region has a young, educated workforce that struggles with insufficient job creation, leading to cheaper labour costs. Barring a black swan event like war, there is almost no downside to this investment and nearly infinite upside.
Option B - Go westward and link the DRC to Luanda. Assuming you decide to cut shipping time by avoiding East Africa and sailing directly from the Atlantic Coast, there is a well developed port in Luanda, a city of 9 million people with a significant educated middle class and multiple industrial parks and facilities in existence within commuting distance. Linking Kolwezi to Luanda would create multiple opportunities for basic processing and beneficiation of the mined ores for the local economy, meaning that some economic benefit would be captured in Angola before the minerals are loaded onto US-bound ships. Thus, both parties get to win and create value for each other. In addition to economic upside, there would also be significant diplomatic upside in Angola and across Africa, as the US gets to connect a major African capital by rail to increased economic opportunities - a diplomatic feat only China has managed over the past 50 odd years.
And then there is Option C.
Option C - Go westward, but completely avoid any significant population centre in the country of 36 million employment-seeking people with a median age of just 16.5. Hack an unlikely route through 1,300KM of dense primary rainforest, terminating at a deep sea port in a city of 393,000 called Lobito. The port is so small that it cannot even handle the volumes you intend for it to take from the DRC, so you have to award another contract to expand this port. This contract will go to Vercuris, a Belgian firm with zero African involvement (except you count the security guards). There is also very little industrial presence of population concentration of any sort along this route, which means it will be little more than a minerals train carrying unprocessed minerals from DRC direct to Lobito port in 24 hours. There will be zero opportunity for localising any part of the minerals processing value chain, which means there will be zero job opportunities for the locals (except you count security guards), zero skills transfer, and ultimately zero economic benefit to either Angola or DRC (except you count the pittance they will receive as mining royalties). Finally, the remoteness and technical difficulty of this route means that it will be entirely ringfenced by European entities like @trafigura (Switzerland), @motaengil (Portugal) and Vercuris (Belgium). There will be practically zero participation and involvement by whatever sparse local population there is (except you count security guards). Basically, it will be the Baghdad Green Zone of mineral evacuation.
America chose Option C.
That is all.
Just to remind you that the flood in maiduguri is not and was not a “natural disaster”. It was a completely avoidable man-made calamity.
It was a dam that broke because someone somewhere failed to do their job.
Over 30 people killed.
About 1million people homeless.
Around 2million people affected.
About half of the entire maiduguri is under water.
Yet nobody arrested.
Nobody is being questioned.
Nobody is getting prosecuted.
Nobody will be charged for this avoidable murder and the subsequent wreckage of millions of lives.
This is not a country. This is a jungle.
It is only in the jungle that actions have zero consequences.
Today makes it a week since @PoliceNG confirmed that they have @PIDOMNIGERIA in their custody.
They promised to arraign him in court this week, but today is Friday and there is no sign of any such arraignment. He is still being held incommunicado.
Where is he?
