Yet minister of works is a bumbling lunatic more interested in talking about Peter Obi than doing his actual work. The Edo Governor is a garrulous illiterate who can’t even read or write.

Update: We spent the weekend carefully reviewing the U.S. government documents provided to us. We found that #Nigeria's President Bola Tinubu (@OfficialABAT) is lying to the world. For example, this weekend, President #Tinubu and his associates claimed that the heroin-trafficking records have not been released solely because @TheJusticeDept (DOJ) and the @FBI object to their release to protect methods and save lives. But we found that President #Tinubu’s own October 23, 2023, motion to the court shows that he personally entered the federal case to prevent records concerning him from being disclosed and that he is communicating with the federal defendants: DOJ, FBI, DEA, and CIA.

In his October 23, 2023, motion, President #Tinubu argued that the records contained private financial and “law-enforcement information” and invoked FOIA and privacy protections (see pages 3–4). Tinubu went even further, arguing that the federal agencies (#DOJ, #FBI, @DEAHQ, and @CIA) themselves were not adequately representing (protecting) his personal privacy interests in court, which is why he wanted to participate directly in the lawsuit (see pages 5–6). But here is the smoking gun: Tinubu specifically requested 30 days before the documents were released to consult with the federal agencies (DOJ, FBI, DEA, and CIA) about what they intended to produce and release publicly (see page 7).

The court granted #Tinubu’s request to intervene on November 27, 2023. It was at this point that we believe the Biden DOJ went from stonewalling to absolutely blocking the release of the Tinubu heroin-trafficking files. So, in very plain English: Fact 1: President #Tinubu filed a motion in U.S. federal court and asked to be allowed into the case so that he could fight the disclosure of IRS and federal law-enforcement records concerning him. Fact 2: He specifically asked for time to “consult” with the federal defendants (#DOJ, #FBI, #DEA, and #CIA) about the records they intended to release and to assert additional protections and exemptions (see page 7). Nigerians, this is your President.

Beyond Football: The Match for a Better Nigeria

This weekend, Europe comes alive again with football. Millions of Nigerian youths will be glued to television screens, streaming matches, debating tactics, celebrating victories, and admiring the organisation, discipline, and excellence that make European football the envy of the world. But here is a question worth asking: Why can’t Nigerian football be just as good?

The answer is not a lack of talent. Nigeria has produced world-class footballers who have excelled in Europe because they found systems that reward merit, invest in infrastructure, ensure security, and are governed with competence and accountability. Great football does not exist in isolation. It grows where there is good governance.

The stadiums, academies, transport systems, healthcare, security, electricity, and institutions that support football are products of leaders who make the right choices and citizens who insist on accountability. Nigeria has the talent. What we have lacked is leadership that creates an enabling environment for that talent to flourish.

As I have decided, in the next 150 days, to engage Nigerian youths wherever they gather—in town halls, campuses, online spaces, and even football communities—my message is simple: The future you admire in Europe can be built in Nigeria. But it starts with your vote.

Imagine a Nigeria where our local league is competitive, our stadiums are full every weekend, our clubs attract sponsorship, our coaches receive proper training, and young footballers no longer see emigration as their only path to success.

Nigeria will not emerge through wishful thinking. It will emerge when young Nigerians decide that elections matter as much as football matches. Every goal scored in Europe is a reminder that excellence is possible. Every well-managed league is proof that systems work when honest leadership is in place.

The 2027 presidential election is therefore more than a political contest. It is an opportunity for Nigerian youths to choose the kind of country they want—a nation that exports talent because it is respected, not because its citizens are escaping failed governance.

Cheer for Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, PSG, Inter, AC Milan, or any club you support. Enjoy every match. But when the final whistle blows, remember that the greatest match awaiting Nigerian youths is not in Europe. It is in Nigeria.

It is the match for good governance. It is the match for jobs, security, education, sports development, and national renewal. And unlike football, where only twenty-two players are on the pitch, every Nigerian youth has a place in this match.

Stand up. Mobilise. Vote. Defend your vote.

If Nigerian youths can passionately follow European football every weekend, they can also passionately build a Nigeria where our own football—and our nation—becomes a source of pride.

The journey towards better Nigerian football begins with the path to good governance. And the path to good governance begins with the decision of Nigerian youths to stand up and be counted in 2027.

Every weekend, starting today, I will come to you with a reminder of January 16, 2027, and our future. We can create world-class standards right here at home.

It’s in your hands, and that new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Update: We just received the attached new court records, which explain why the @FBI is asking @uscourts Judge Beryl Howell for permission to privately provide her with highly sensitive information concerning FBI files related to the DOJ heroin-trafficking allegations involving Nigerian President Bola Tinubu. It seems #Tinubu is afraid for his life.

The main FBI claim is that disclosure “could reasonably be expected to endanger the life or physical safety of any individual.” We can only surmise from this that Nigerian President Bola Tinubu (@officialABAT) is now telling the #FBI that his life would be in danger if the files are released.

Nigerians, this is the man asking you to re-elect him next year. More to come.

Breaking News: Things are moving much faster than under the @TheJusticeDept (DOJ) under President @JoeBiden. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro (@USAttyPirro) again asked Judge Beryl Howell yesterday for more time. This is not simply an effort to stonewall. The government says it is dealing with very sensitive information. In our opinion, we believe this may mean that President Tinubu was caught and made a deal with the U.S. government, which would explain why funds were seized from his accounts but he was not criminally prosecuted.

Per U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro’s new emergency request, the @FBI, @DEAHQ, and U.S. Attorney’s Office are still working internally to prepare their explanation for Judge Howell, and some of what they want to tell the judge is so sensitive that they are asking to share it with her privately. The government says two declarations require what is called “ex parte in camera review”. This means they want Judge Howell to review them privately. The government says it needs additional time to complete its work and has now asked the court to move its deadline from August 21 to August 28.

This is a major development in the fight to uncover the DOJ, FBI, and DEA records concerning drug-trafficking allegations involving Nigerian President Bola #Tinubu (@officialABAT). After more than three years, the American and Nigerian people deserve to know what is in these files. We appreciate the work being done by U.S. Attorney #Pirro, the FBI, DEA, and @TheJusticeDept under President @realDonaldTrump.

In our opinion, what we will continue to tell the @realDonaldTrump Administration and Congress is this: deal or no deal, for the integrity of the United States and President Trump, especially after Venezuela, release the documents. The United States and the #Republican Party do not need another Epstein scandal.

Today, I make this clear commitment: my running mate and I will take our message directly to Nigerians. We will listen to them, understand their concerns, and engage them openly. We will not delegate this duty to proxies. We will answer questions, defend our record and character, and present our plan to rebuild Nigeria. Any presidential candidate who lacks the resolve to travel across the country, meet the people, and respond to their questions lacks the capacity to govern it.

I commit to commencing the journey of resetting Nigeria by uniting it, securing it on the path of economic and inclusive growth, and moving our country from consumption to production.

A New Nigeria is possible.

God Almighty bless Nigeria. -PO

.@officialABAT President Tinubu, Terminate the Dodgy £746 Million Ports Deal, Now

By
Obiageli “Oby” Ezekwesili

One hundred and fifty‑two days after President Bola Tinubu signed a £746 million ports financing deal with the United Kingdom at Windsor Castle, neither government has disclosed the terms of the agreement. I initially held back from commenting, prioritising Nigeria’s spiraling insecurity. But the persistent silence surrounding this deal and the pattern of opaque governance it reflects makes further waiting irresponsible.

Nigeria’s public debt has exploded from ₦87 trillion in May 2023 to over ₦152 trillion today. Debt service now gulps more than 60 percent of government revenues, leaving crumbs for health,
education, and the security Nigerians are dying for lack of. The administration’s annual borrowing
rate has soared to nearly ₦50 trillion, that is, ten times that of its predecessors, fueled by a $21.45 billion external borrowing plan approved without a single substantive public hearing by the complicit, supine and captive @nassnigeria .

Against this backdrop, the Tinubu government added a £746 million ports deal whose terms remain hidden. This is not a grant, nor aid. It is a sovereign debt obligation. It is a commercial loan arranged by Citibank London, guaranteed by UK Export Finance, and structured to benefit British exporters.

At least £236 million is contractually reserved for British suppliers. British Steel alone secured a £70 million contract it described as one of the largest in its history. Nigeria borrowed the money that British companies will harvest the contracts and Nigerians will repay the debt. Yet neither interest rates nor repayment timelines have been officially published.

Civil society organizations, including SEREC, BudgIT and opposition parties have demanded disclosure. None has received a substantive response. The loan agreement remains unpublished by the Ministry of Finance, NPA, UKEF, or any other official body.

Three failures make this silence unacceptable.

First, currency risk: a sterling loan benchmarked to a floating dollar rate, repayable in a Naira that has lost over 70 percent of its value since 2023, with no disclosed hedging framework.

Second, procurement failure which is most vexing for me as one who led the public procurement reforms of this country: credible reporting identifies ITB Nigeria a company owned by Gilbert Chagoury who is publicly identified as a bosom friend of President Tinubu as the primary contractor without the Due Process of competitive tender, without publicly available evidence of the involvement of the Bureau for Public Procurement, and without any published evaluation criteria.

Third, policy failure: the government ignored the proven alternative of private capital. The Lekki Deep Sea Port was built for $1.5 billion under a private BOT concession with zero sovereign debt and now handles 1.2 million Twenty‑foot Equivalent Units - TEUs. In simple language, the Lekki Port for which Nigeria did not take on any loans attracted private financing and is today successfully handling 1.2 million single 20‑foot shipping container annually.

No analysis whatsoever has been offered by the Tinubu administration to justify why then Apapa and Tin Can, two of West Africa’s most commercially productive ports, could not follow the same model of private capital. These two ports do not need sovereign debt to be rehabilitated. What they need is a governance framework that attracts private capital on Nigeria's terms. …/1
