It is crucially important to loudly emphasize that the structural arrangements and the revenue-sharing formulas for extracted Nigerian crude oil that existed from 1993 up until 1998 during the Sani Abacha military government were fundamentally different from the submissive, neocolonial policies that existed after 1999, when Nigeria transitioned into a heavily compromised, Western-approved democratic government with Olusegun Obasanjo emerging as the president.
Under the Abacha administration, most of the deep offshore oil fields in Nigeria had not even been discovered yet, and the local domestic industries completely lacked the highly advanced technical infrastructure, the specialized deepwater drilling equipment, and the massive financial capital required for such high-level exploration. Consequently, the original policy framework was strictly designed to allow the greedy IOCs to merely perform the expensive, and dirty work of physical exploration, but they were legally and categorically forbidden from actually owning the oil blocks outright.
Under Abacha's uncompromising resource nationalism, any lucrative oil block had to be owned strictly by a local Nigerian company, and the foreign IOC would then be forced to enter into a highly regulated joint-venture agreement or a technical partnership with the local company if they wanted to participate in the lucrative production.
A highly famous example of this resource battle would be the notorious Malabu oil block (OPL 245). It was one of the single biggest, most lucrative deepwater oil blocks in the entire country, accounting for a staggering one-fourth of all known deepwater oil deposits in Nigeria at the time. Chevron pulled every single diplomatic lever, geopolitical string, and intelligence asset in Washington to bypass this rule and secure direct ownership of that block, but a fiercely resistant Abacha flatly refused, stood his ground, and insisted that the block must remain fully owned and managed by a local company.
However, just a few short months after this high-stakes geopolitical battle between Abacha and Chevron, Sani Abacha mysteriously, highly conveniently died, and Olusegun Obasanjo was ushered into power. The very first thing the Obasanjo administration did upon capturing Aso Rock was to aggressively seize, confiscate, and revoke all these highly lucrative oil blocks that rightfully belonged to indigenous Nigerian companies, only to hand them over on a silver platter to giant American oil majors and British energy cartels.
Not only did he commit this spectacular, generational economic treason, he single-handedly maintained the lopsided revenue-sharing formulas(designed for exploration only), ensured the Deep Offshore Act remained untouched, and allowed these Western conglomerates to continuously eat the lion's share of Nigeria's liquid wealth.
Even the mineral-rich Bakassi Peninsula, which Abacha had heavily barricaded with battle-ready Nigerian troops to resolutely stop Cameroon from seizing the massive, lucrative offshore oil and gas reserves it contained, was quietly forfeited and signed away by Obasanjo under the submissive guise of international diplomacy and legal compliance.
2 important dots to connect:
1986: IMF Structural Adjustment Program in Nigeria mandates Babangida to liberalise Nigeria's news media and information space. Foreign ownership and funding of mass media is permitted in Nigeria for the first time.
2026: 40 years later, after 2 generations of post-SAP Nigerians have been marinated in American-funded news, "education" and entertainment media for their entire lives, most Nigerians now believe they are Deputy Americans, and hold their primary allegiance to a country they have never been to on another continent. They now support openly imperialist actions by the US and would happily grind their own mothers into paste if the US president tells them to.
Bonus point: The US government owns 17% of the IMF, which requires an 85% voting majority to take decisions. This means the US holds veto power in the IMF, and the IMF is functionally an extension of US foreign policy.
I lost all my money yesterday 😪... I can't believe I built $20 to $164 through trading and allowed a moment's folly take it all away... Just documenting it here.
EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE
Nigerians please we need justice for Elozino Joshualia Ogege. My secondary school friend. She wasn’t just a classmate, she was my friend we sat together in school. She was a decent girl. Elo was not wayward.
They killed her Nigerians. They plucked her eyes while she was alive, breast and heart before she died.
She was a brilliant student, a first-class student from 100 level to 300 level at Delta State University Delsu.
She only went to look for a house to rent Nigerians😭
She told a security man working in DELSU, Onoriode (Onos), who had access to the school environment that she was looking for a house, he then told her he would help her get accommodation. That was how he lured her. Delsu claimed they are contract staff from a security company. Guess what? This security man is an Ex-convict.
He did not act alone.
He worked with other Yahoo boys including Desmond and their gang and with the help of a security supervisor identified as Nwosisi Benedict Uche. The mastermind was a Yahoo boy who came from Ghana, and got those Yahoo boys to look for a girl for ritual for him. He had 2 houses already in Abraka. Elo was not their first victim.
They planned it.
They waited for her inside the school environment, campus 3, overpowered her by putting something on her face and took her away.
They drove her out of Abraka into a bush.
According to their own confession, Elozino was crying and begging them to let her go even after they took her eyes alive she was still begging them. 😭
But they did not stop.
They killed her and removed parts of her body for ritual purposes to use for what they call “Yahoo Plus” money rituals.
They took those parts to a native doctor identified as Ojokojo Robinson Obajero, who they believed would perform money rituals for them.
The police tracked her phone and arrested them after the family reported she was missing because they couldn't reach her.
The Delta State Police PRO, DSP Andrew Aniamaka, confirmed that the suspects confessed and that the crime started as a missing person case before turning into a murder investigation.
Even the Commissioner of Police at the time, Muhammad Mustafa, confirmed arrests and said they were ritual killers.
One of the masterminds even died while trying to escape arrest.
But since 2018… what has happened? Elon have had no justice since 2018.
The case has been in court. Adjournment after adjournment.
Delay after delay. Years have passed. No clear justice. Are they bringing the judge?
My friend left her house to look for accommodation and never came back.
She trusted the wrong person a security man inside her own school. Delsu refused to show concern for their negligence. How can you employ an Ex-convict? Why would a security company employ an Ex-convict?
Elo is gone we know but we want justice. And till today, it feels like justice is still being delayed.
Nigerians, how long will this continue? How long will young girls keep dying like this? How long will cases like this be forgotten?
Please speak up. Please don’t let this case die. Please people I'm begging y'all to help us speak. They already confessed to doing it. They should have been sentenced to death already. All the people involved.
Help us cry for justice @Hybrid_Ola@_meera__abdul@AdageorgeA@oku_yungx@Austeiin@lilyally98@instablog9ja
This is the news on BBC. It's everywhere on the Internet too

🔥🔥🔥 Nylon business will make you a millionaire in 2026.
I’ll tell you how
People think nylon is “small business,” but it’s one of the fastest moving consumables in Nigeria. Everybody uses it markets, food vendors, pharmacies, supermarkets, caterers, online vendors, even households.
This is how it turns into serious money for you
You don’t retail , supply.
Buy in bulk from manufacturers or major distributors and supply daily use businesses.
Target customers:
• Food vendors & bukas
• Supermarkets & mini-marts
• Pharmacies
• Frozen food sellers
• Event planners & caterers
• Online vendors
The real money is in:
• Consistent repeat orders
• Volume sales, not one off sales
• Supplying branded nylon with business names
• Becoming the go to supplier in one area
For example
If you supply just 10 businesses buying ₦20,000 worth weekly:
That’s ₦200,000 weekly
₦800,000 monthly
Multiply that by 2–3 locations and you’re no longer playing small.
Low entry capital.
High turnover.
Daily demand.
Position yourself.
Network.
Decide to take it seriously.

It’s official: the AVX ticker is live!
We have now fully transitioned to AVAX One (NASDAQ: AVX), the first publicly traded vehicle designed to give investors institutional-grade access to the onchain financial economy, powered by the @avax network.
With this update, allow us to reintroduce ourselves ⬇️
→ Our Mission
To give investors regulated exposure to the onchain financial economy by compounding AVAX ownership and supporting real network adoption, helping build a more transparent, efficient, and profitable financial ecosystem.
→ Our Differentiator
Unlike ETFs, AVAX One follows a Berkshire Hathaway–style model: a structure built to accumulate and compound AVAX in the near term, and over time acquire and onboard cash-flowing fintech businesses to the Avalanche network. This creates a self-reinforcing flywheel where asset growth, on-chain yield, and strategic acquisitions compound long-term value across the ecosystem.
→ Our Partners
AVAX One is advised by @Scaramucci (@SkyBridge) and Brett Tejpaul (@CoinbaseInsto), and supported by @HivemindCap as its asset management partner, applying institutional rigor and an actively managed approach to the treasury strategy.
→ Why Avalanche
Avalanche is rapidly becoming the settlement layer for global financial markets. Today, it already powers tokenization, capital markets, and financial infrastructure for institutions such as KKR, Apollo, and J.P. Morgan, establishing the core rails that will bring institutional finance onchain.
🔺 AVAX One (NASDAQ:AVX)
The premier institutional gateway to the onchain financial economy, powered by Avalanche.

DO NOT BE DECEIVED
There's "pretty privilege" and being pretty can actually get you a lot of opportunities but to keep those opportunities you'll need your BRAIN....
✌️
1. I paint my business places twice every year. This keeps the business brand new every time and appealing.
2. My business doesn't run out of our branded packaging material; our customers don't throw them away. That's their second handbag when going to work (to keep food or shoes , for those wearing heels). Free marketing for us.
3. When customers come in, they shake their body. In fact, we have songs for Mondays to Fridays, and for morning, afternoon, and evening. This causes customers to stay longer than expected.
4. My staff guys address our over 5 thousand customers by their names. This creates an emotional connection between our customers and our business.
5. Our customers receive an instant text message from us after purchase. This creates more emotional connections, that they become worried when there's a glitch.
6. For every 100 points our customers earn, they get a discount of 2k. Discount makes them happy and feel special each time they get it.
7. If you buy anything that turns bad, but not your fault, we refund you instantly, or replace it. We understand that loss is part of the game, and also understand that your trust makes us play a longer game.
I will continue the list some other time.
But...
Would you say this business is winning by luck?
Running a business isn't a boring adventure.
Get it to excite everyone involved:
-Yourself
-Customers
-And workers.
And come back to ask for my account number.

See You Soon.
They can "pick" on me all they want. That concerns who is fragile enough to be picked on. None of my business.
I will continue to say what I have to say - and that is that the real focus must be on eliminating the virus causing the disease, not alleviating its symptoms! That is the fundamental difference between revolutionary thinking and reactionary thinking.
A revolutionary wants to fundamentally transform the environment in such a way that the virus can no longer be present to cause disease and suffering. A reactionary (which is what most Africans are), has a 12kb memory that cannot link basic cause to effect, unthinkingly parrots the same narratives they have been brainwashed with since they were children (Africa's problems are "corruption," "dictatorship" and "bad governance" - as though these are somehow inherently African phenomena), and wishes to spend their lives endlessly fighting symptoms and deluding themselves into thinking that they have achieved something.
Here is a very simple Nigerian example of why reactionaries are stupid people:
In September 2020, I wrote a story about the Police Reform Act 2020, which exposed the bill as a dangerous rehash of the existing Police Act, granting individual policemen sweeping, vaguely-worded powers to do things like predictive policing (arresting someone because you 'believe' they may be involved in a crime in future), warrantless arrest and detention, and subjective arrests based on the sole individual belief of a police officer that the person being arrested is a criminal because they should not be able to afford the lifestyle they have.
In that report, I mentioned that despite providing funding to various civil society organisations that were involved in drafting this horrible bill, as well as providing direct funding to some of Nigeria's most notorious police units including SARS, the UK government does not use such broadly-worded legislation at home. I even did a side-by-side comparison of the UK Police Act 1996 and the Nigeria Police Reform Act 2020, showing how the British bill went into great detail to limit the powers of the UK police to interfere in the lives of ordinary British residents, while the Nigerian bill which was drafted in partnership with UK-funded organisations did the exact opposite.
The obvious inference was that the problem of police misbehaviour in Nigeria is not merely a situational issue of Corporal John the sadistic, trigger-happy rapist, but is actually a systemic issue that goes all the way up to the geopolitical relationship between Nigeria and the UK (because why would the UK government provide funding for the production of a bill that literally places Nigerian citizens at war with their own law enforcement officials, as well as directly fund police units with well-documented histories of criminal behaviour?)
But instead of seeing my point, the legion of Nigerian reactionaries rather dedicated a full week on this website to calling me an "alarmist" and a "conspiracy theorist." And then the very next month, when that video from Ughelli emerged and the nationwide protests began, some of these same reactionary idiots were out on the streets yelling "#EndSARS!" and "#EndPoliceBrutality!" If you try to tell these idiots that the fact that Nigerian policemen behave the way they do is directly linked to the neocolonial relationship Nigeria has with the UK, US and EU, their 12 kilobyte minds cannot contain or process such information, so they react with scorn or anger, because nothing offends the African idiot like being told that he is in fact, an idiot.
5 years later, police brutality has not improved in Nigeria, and those reactionaries are still there saying nonsense like "Nigeria is cursed," "I just need to get out of here," and "If they explain Nigeria to you and you understand it, they didn't explain it well." Some of them have created NGOs out of this situation, and won dollar funding to treat symptoms. And of course it never occurs to them to ask why there is always a US government-linked donor willing to fund your NGO to feed starving IDPs in the north, but the same US government refuses to sell military equipment to your army so that it can end the situation that created the IDPs. Or if it sells them equipment like the Super Turcanos, they come with geographical restrictions on where they can be used, making them worthless, expensive toys.
A 12 kilobyte brain cannot put these simple data points together and reach the world's most obvious conclusion in the history of obvious conclusions.
No, it's a "conspiracy theory."
Before social media completely scrambles your common sense, remember
1. Men still need women. Women still need men. No amount of “I don’t need anybody” will change human nature.
2. Not every date needs to be fancy love can happen over fries and chicken too.
3. 50/50, 70/30, 100/0 whatever works for your relationship, do that. Just stop coming online to argue about who should pay the bills.
4. A cheater will cheat even on the best person in the world.
5. Being single isn’t peace if you’re secretly lonely
6. Social media is a movie everyone’s acting, nobody’s being real.
7. Men who work hard for their families will always be more valuable than people who just talk about it online.
8. Health is the only real wealth , even luxury needs strength.
Don’t let the internet rewrite reality. Real life still has rules.
