I feel special because I've the latitude to think independently knowing full well that I shall be solely responsible for whatever I become in Life.

This groundbreaking documentary gives insight to imperialism can be. How resistance to imperialism will define the today and future of Africa, how democracy has long been used as a tool for political subversion, even in the more secure African countries. Finally, it reminds…

A million thanks for your interventions And we hope that Peace will return eventually and our people will go back to their ancestral homes currently occupied By Fulani terrorists. It was nice meeting and interacting with you at the Bishop's House in Makurdi, BENUE STATE.

[Rep. Riley M. Moore @RepRileyMoore]

It was an honor and deeply moving to meet with his excellency Bishop Wilfred Anagbe, Bishop Isaac Dugu, and his Royal Highness James Ioruza, traditional ruler of the Tiv people, to discuss the ongoing genocidal campaign by the Fulani in Benue State.

Our brothers and sisters in Christ will no longer suffer in silence.

The United States has heard your cries and we are working diligently toward solutions.

I came to Nigeria in the name of the Lord and on behalf of the American people.

Just ending a very productive Congressional visit to Nigeria! We had rounds of meetings with the Nigerian government and people on the ground, including stops in Benue State. More details to come. Happy Sunday. God is Great!

Congratulations to my dear brother, Aliko Dangote, on the success achieved so far since the Dangote Refinery commenced operations. It is a historic leap for Nigeria’s energy independence and economic future.

But more importantly, credit must go to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for doing what no other leader before him had the political will to execute, the full deregulation of the downstream petroleum sector. This singular act has broken the grip of entrenched interests and ushered in a new era of transparency, healthy competition, and customer-centric service delivery. In a sector long plagued by rent-seeking, subsidy fraud, product diversion, and smuggling, this reform marks a decisive break from the past and lays the foundation for a more efficient and accountable energy market.

Yet despite this progress, there are still voices clinging to the old ways. Voices determined to resist change, even when it’s clear the tide has turned.

I’ve followed recent commentary around fuel supply issues and feel compelled to provide some perspective, especially as it relates to the future of this country, which remains threatened by entrenched cabals who still believe they can block the winds of reform.

But history has shown time and again: you can delay change, frustrate it, even sabotage it but you can never stop it. I founded DAPPMAN in 2002 (23 years ago) with a clear mission, to challenge the dominance of the major marketers and give independent depot owners a fair platform to thrive.

I personally structured the group, appointing the late George Enenmoh, then MD of Ascon Oil, as Chairman, while I served as Vice Chairman and Sayyu Dantata as Secretary. At the time, depot ownership was strategic. We were filling critical supply gaps left by an inefficient system.

But times have changed. Many of the original players have exited the scene, and those left are clinging to assets that no longer reflect today’s business realities . I advised some of them as far back as last year to sell their depots as scrap while they still had value. Nigeria now has over 4 million metric tons of storage capacity, most of it idle. With the Dangote Refinery now supplying fuel locally, the old business model is crumbling.

Zenon Oil pioneered the modern diesel business in Nigeria and grew to become the largest supplier in the country. We built depots to store our imported diesel because the market was import-driven and riddled with inefficiencies. But with Dangote’s refinery fully operational, those gaps no longer exist. We now have domestic production and local supply efficient, reliable, and proudly Nigerian. Furthermore, we must not fail to recognise the attendant benefits of eliminating the grid lock around the Ibafon , Tincan and Apapa areas due to the operations of the Dangote Refinery.

More than just producing fuel, Aliko has elevated the entire logistics chain. He has purchased 8,000 brand new CNG eco-friendly trucks that will distribute across the country with less pollution and fewer breakdowns, unlike the aging, rickety trucks still used by some operators. I know this business intimately. I was king of it and at the peak of it in 2005 (20 years ago) , I was conferred with the life patron of the PTD union by Mr Akinlaja. So, when I say the game has changed, I speak from deep experience.

@UtomiPat we expect you to be a part of the coalition to give it the intellectual propeller that will inspire confidence if not it may likely end up the usual Nigerian Way!!!

Please get involved Prof Sir 🙏🙏🙏

Warm shout out to ADC for becoming the platform to construct a new political party that can show the way away from this present darkness. The key must not be just to replace incumbents. It must be about sacrificial service to redeem Nigeria and restore hope to our children

It is with the utmost sadness that I once again reaffirm what I have consistently said: Nigeria has become a crime scene.

How else does one explain the recent revelation by the Senate, which uncovered the audited accounts of the NNPC from 2017 to 2023? The Senate uncovered ₦210 trillion in financial irregularities, ₦103 trillion in so-called “accrued expenses”, and another ₦107 trillion in unaccounted “receivables.” No documentation. No accountability. No consequences.

This is not just another scandal, it is a clear and damning confirmation of a nation held hostage by monumental corruption.

Our national budget within the said period of 2017 to 2023 is as follows:
2017 ₦7.440 trillion.
2018 ₦9.120 trillion
2019 ₦8.916 trillion
2020 ₦10.590 was initially approved and in June revised to ₦9.974 trillion due to COVID.
2021 ₦13.588 trillion.
2022 ₦17.130 trillion
2023 ₦21.830 trillion

Total: ₦88.010 trillion

Our total national budget within the said period was not up to 50% of the said financial discrepancies and irregularities.

This is a criminal institutionalised betrayal of the Nigerian people and a grave threat to the future of the society our children will live in.

No responsible nation can continue to function like this without confronting this truth. This criminality masquerading as governance must be stopped and dismantled for a better Nigeria.

A new Nigeria is POssible.

The Democrats are really out of control. They have lost everything, especially their minds! These Radical Left Lunatics are into the “Impeachment thing” again. They have already got two “No Name,” little respected Congressmen, total Whackjobs both, throwing the “Impeachment” of DONALD J. TRUMP around, for about the 20th time, even though they have no idea for what I would be Impeached. Maybe it should be for cleaning up the MESS that they left us on the Border, or the Highest Inflation in our Country’s History or, perhaps, it should be the incompetent Withdrawal from Afghanistan, or Russia, Russia, Russia/Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, or the Attack of Israel on October 7th that only proceeded because they allowed Iran to regain Great Wealth. These Congressmen stated that, they didn’t know why they would Impeach me but, “We just want to do it.” The Republicans should start to think about expelling them from Congress for all of the crimes that they have committed, especially around Election time(s). These are very dishonest people that won’t let our Country heal! Why do we allow them to continuously use Impeachment as a weapon against the President of the United States who, by all accounts, is working hard to SAVE OUR COUNTRY. It’s the same playbook that they used in my First Term, and Republicans are not going to allow them to get away with it again. These are total LOWLIFES, who hate our Country, and everything it stands for. Perhaps we should start playing this game on them, and expel Democrats for the many crimes that they have committed — And these are REAL crimes. Remember, “Shifty” Adam Schiff demanded a Pardon, and they had to use the power of the Auto Pen, and a Full Pardon, for him and the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, to save them from Expulsion, and probably worse!

Ibrahim Traore himself probably doesn't realise how important he has become to this continent. I've been alive nearly 35 years and I've never seen one person manage to unite Anglophones, Francophones and Lusophones in approval.

It's incredible to witness.

It gives me hope for Nigeria too. Maybe our generation is too unintelligent and too far gone, but a generation after us someday will definitely unite around a Nigerian "Traore." We might not be here to witness it, but it will happen.

When a Spirit of fear descends on a people the worst has happened. I was on AIT today. Was reminded that people fear protest because power is so heartless it guns down those whose only weapon is their voice. But that power cannot protect citizens in Benue and Plateau
