Permit me to annoy you.
Are you aware that 99% of young people living in Nigeria are working much harder than they did eight years ago just to buy food and pay their landlords? Even you reading this is among the victims!

When the government wants to work, it will work

A government that can build this in 24 months can also build a 1004 complex of one and two-room apartments in Abuja, and destroy the high cost of rent and win elections

The same way the government used solar to power itself out of darkness, but left you in band A

Notice how corruption did not affect these projects

You, who are writing a draft to attack this post, tell me what the government has done for you personally

Absolutely disgusting culture we have here ngl

Nothing defines the story of Nigerian bureaucratic spending like discovering today that a historical, non-existent agency (formerly NEPA/PHCN) still funds a physical corporate building in Central London, with staff in it. Why are public funds still maintaining an office for an entity that was dissolved years ago?

[AgricQueen @ChimdiIbeawuchi]

In 2017, I traveled to China to source automated agricultural equipment for a commercial farming project. My focus was on battery cages, feed milling systems, and silos.

After a week of visiting different Manufacturers and Factories I couldn’t find a Battery Cage System that wasn’t Power dependent- They entire world was using Fully Automated Battery Cage System.

One young CEO became genuinely frustrated with me when I told him-His Automated Battery Cages (with sensors and temperature regulators) wouldn’t work for me because I didn’t have Electricity.
When I explained that reliable electricity was not available in Nigeria, he thought I was exaggerating. To him, uninterrupted power was such a basic requirement for business that the absence of it seemed impossible.

He asked, “How do Survive”? So I showed him on Baidu and he genuinely felt sorry for me.

Even my translator, Cherry, struggled to understand what I meant. We eventually had to research it online before she accepted that a country of over 200 million people could have such a fundamental infrastructure gap.

After further investigation, she helped us locate a manufacturer in Henan Province that produced semi-automated systems specifically for African markets—equipment designed to operate despite unreliable power supply.

Nine years later, the situation remains largely unchanged.

I still do not have Electricity in any farm I own or have helped develop.

Alleged N2b Nigeria Air Fraud:   How Sirika Allegedly Used Ethiopian Airlines as Fake Nigeria Air-Witness

The 12th Prosecution Witness, PW12, Christopher Odofin,   in the trial of the former Minister of Aviation, Hadi Abubakar Sirika, on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, told Justice S.C. Oriji of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT,  High Court Abuja, how Sirika allegedly passed off an aircraft belonging to Ethiopian Airline as that of the promised Nigeria Air by the government of the late President Muhammadu Buhari.

The decoy aircraft, adorned with the livery of the promised Nigeria Air, found its way on the tarmac of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja on May 27, 2023, being three days to the expiration of the tenure of the Buhari government and was flown back to Addis Ababa in the morning of May 29, 2023, being the handover date to the successor government.

Hadi Sirika is facing prosecution by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC on amended six-count, bordering on alleged abuse of office and misappropriation of public funds to the tune of over N2 billion, alongside his daughter, Fatima Hadi Sirika, son-in-law, Hamma Jalal Sule, and Al Buraq Global Investment Limited.

The contract for the setting up of Nigeria Air was awarded to Tianaero Nigeria Limited, belonging to Gabriel Tilmann, a close associate and friend of the former minister.

Reading from a portion of contract agreement with Ethiopian Airline, the witness, an investigator with Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC said “The aircraft will depart from Addis Ababa (ADD) late evening of May 26, 2023 for it to be positioned early morning of May 27, 2023 at the Abuja (ABV) airport. The aircraft will stay in ABV airport for static display of Nigeria Air livery until May 28, 2023. The aircraft will leave ABV airport early morning on May, 29, 2023. The chartered flight will be operated by the Ethiopian Airline crew in Ethiopian Airline uniform. The Federal Government of Nigeria and Nigeria Air may put together local models who will be in Nigeria Air uniforms to pose for ceremonial pictures. The models may come to Addis Ababa so they may fly with the chartered flight to ABV.”

The witness told the court that the display of the aircraft in Abuja International Airport was deliberately planned to coincide with the end of the first defendant’s tenure as Nigeria’s Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development on May 29, 2023 and to pass the aircraft off as the actualization of his promise of the return of Nigeria Air. After the less than 72 hours display of the aircraft, he stated that the Nigeria Air logo was removed from the aircraft and flown back to Ethiopian Airlines in Addis Ababa.

The witness further disclosed that the investigating team was also able to ascertain that Ethiopian Airlines entered into a charter arrangement for the static display of the Nigeria Air livery for a duration of just three days, beginning from May 27 to May 29, 2023 based on information and documents received from the airline following a letter from it, dated June 12, 2023, in response to the EFCC’s request for information regarding Nigeria Air. And that though the purpose of the contract was for the establishment of Nigeria Air, the charter agreement with Ethiopian Airlines was entered on May 24, 2023, five days to the expiration of the defendant’s tenure for just a static display of the Nigeria Air logo on an aircraft.

All the documents tendered in evidence by the prosecution were shown to have been duly signed, authorized, and accompanied by certificates of identification and were not objected to by any of the counsels to the four defendants.
Among the exhibits is a compact disk containing a voice note from the first defendant, Hadi Sirika, marked Exhibit 37, which the prosecution counsel applied to be played in the court at the next adjourned date.

[The_Bearded_Dr_Sina @the_beardedsina]

In all my life, I have never seen any fraud as strategic as this.

You contacted a foreign airline, got them to paint Nigeria Air on their own plane, got people to disguise as NG Air pilots, organised a team to wear Nigeria Air clothes, organised media to cover Nigeria Air arrival, clear the airport for Nigeria Air.
Got Newspaper to cover Nigeria Air.
Got media houses to cover emergence of Nigeria Air.
Cut Ribbon to celebrate Nigerian Air
Flew the plane back to the original country.
Told the Masses of a breaking project.
Got creme de last creme of the country.

This is crazy and evil.
