The same FIFA that could not stop a world cup host from not issuing visas to players and official delegations has banned Haiti from wearing its jersey because the design (paying homage to its anti-slavery struggle) is "too political."

"Black people should just kick the footballs. The wider political context of the football is not for them."

[Uche Odiliora @Urchmaniac]

@FIFAcom But FIFA endorsed the US keeping out African teams supporters and ref Ortan Halim from participating at the WC?
Ain't that hate crime? FIFA is a political football body after allowing criticism against Qatar in 2022 during the WC

@KingBogota @BBCWorld No one believes this media outlet

The sharing formula for the multi-billion-dollar revenue extracted from the deep offshore oil wells between Nigeria and the massive International Oil Companies like Chevron, ExxonMobil, Shell, ENI, and TotalEnergies is actually a laughable 20% - 80% in favor of the IOCs.

This brutally exploitative, legally sanctioned, and neocolonial arrangement was actively in place from 1993, through decades of systemic economic stagnation, up until 2019. Even after the highly celebrated 2019 legislative amendment, this lopsided formula has still not changed much in reality. It was merely pegged, calculated, and strictly tied to the cumulative number of barrels pumped.

For example, if the yearly cumulative production, the actual volume of oil extracted, or the total annual yield from the deepwater wells is merely 50 million barrels, the split remains 40% - 60% in favor of the IOCs.
If the production climbs above 50 million and comfortably sits below 100 million barrels, it becomes a marginally adjusted 45% - 55%, which is still heavily in favor of the IOCs. Only in the highly unlikely, mathematically engineered, and virtually impossible situation where the cumulative production reaches a massive 750 million barrels, does the sharing formula finally tilt towards an 80% - 20% split in favor of Nigeria.

To make matters worse, these same greedy IOCs still have the absolute audacity to claim that tens of thousands of barrels of crude oil, gas, and condensate are lost daily due to local oil theft, pipeline vandalism, and community sabotage. So clearly, the crude oil, the natural gas, and the subterranean wealth may technically belong to Nigeria, but the entire country is being systematically milked, drained, and looted into absolute oblivion by these parasitic Western oil majors.

The cat is out of the bag. Finally!
All the hullaballoo about Ebola and all that was a smoke screen to create a transit passage for minerals from the DRC and the region to the USA...unbelievable.
The imperialists have found a perfect stooge in Africa. There will be a backlash

@DNIGabbard The Epstein files should be released equally.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Rule of law is for the poor and downtrodden in Nigeria

[Premium Times @PremiumTimesng]

A former military officer convicted of sodomy by a General Court Martial and whose conviction was upheld by Nigeria's Supreme Court never served his five-year prison sentence.

Instead, he received a presidential pardon, had his military dismissal converted to voluntary retirement, regained his benefits, and eventually became Dean of a law faculty.

PREMIUM TIMES investigates the extraordinary journey of Bello Magaji—and the questions it raises about justice, accountability, and influence in Nigeria.

@QFA_EN Better than Saudi Arabia 0: 8 Germany at Korea/Japan 2002 WC with no FIFA hate crime as seen at US/Canada/ Mexico 2026

"Tinubu said: '...why should I make laws that favour free and fair election, if you don't want to vote don't vote. Who say you must vote. You can sleep in your house that day. If only three people that vote for me, I win."

If you take a letter to INEC, they would call Villa. If they say don't collect they won't collect and if they ask them to collect they would collect because INEC is controlled from Aso Rock" - Prince Adeboyo

Nigeria don go be that.... jackals and hyenas are running bullocks here

**If you are kidnapped in Nigeria, you are completely on your own. No security agency will save you.

"My nephew was kidnapped while I was SA to Vice President Shettima. I knocked on every door, entered every office, and gave them the exact coordinates of the location. They promised to help but couldn't. We spent ₦175 Million, including ransom, before he was released after 36 days in captivity. The security agencies couldn't help." - Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, brother to Datti Baba-Ahmed
