If you believe one random man single-handedly opened a “fake” office,eluded officials, misled the Accountant General and the CBN, got budgetary allocations and even defended it at NASS, operated from the “office” still undetected, please go back to your school and collect refund. You are an Imbecile... TBH, Nigeria is a movie scene..

[Fisayo Ademuwagun @Tolu_7085]

I support Tinubu. That is not a secret.
But this fake agency scandal is something I cannot defend and I will not try to.

A man created a fictitious presidential agency, Got office space at the Federal Secretariat. Opened accounts with the Central Bank of Nigeria. Met foreign ambassadors. And somehow that same agency ended up on pages 50 and 51 of the 2026 Appropriation Act with allocated to it.

To an agency that does not exist.
Now the government is saying it was a fraudster acting alone.
Maybe that is true.

How does a fake agency open a CBN account without the Accountant General's office knowing.
How does it get office space at the Federal Secretariat for over a year without anyone noticing.

How does it enter the national budget that the President signed.
Either the system is so broken that one man can infiltrate it at every level undetected.

Or somebody on the inside helped him.
Both answers are a serious problem.

I promised myself I wasn’t going to talk about the government this month.

- Last week it was empowering people with akara.
- Yesterday it was further reinforcing the needlessness of NYSC.
- Today, it is changing the uniform to Adire.

What exactly is the economic impact of any of these things?

They’ve been building roads for three years, is this really what we need right now?
Could the monies spent have been channeled elsewhere into bettering the lives of Nigerians?

Maybe they could have built more schools.
Maybe they could have built more hospitals.
Maybe they could have increased the security budget so our armed forces are motivated - so that farmers are protected - so that traveling is safer. Everything that seems logical and should have been done - haven’t.

When some of us speak, it’ll come off as we don’t support the government. But if you remove the spec in your eyes, you will see clearly that this government does not support us in any way.

Where’s the foreign investments they promised us with the roads and infrastructure? It’s almost a full term now and it’s just been loans loans loans and lavish living. We all recently just discovered that there’s a Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council. But apparently that agency doesn’t exist. What exactly is really going on?

Yes, you can boast and say the administration has implemented so many policies. But which of these policies from NELFUND to this meter empowerment that the president just announced has actually helped to improve the hierarchy of needs for Nigerians. From food, to clothing, to shelter.
- Cost of feeding is expensive, garri used to be cheap.
- No one talks about buying December clothes anymore.
- Rent is at an all time unreasonable high.
The government has not for once set up a committee, put policies in place or set up an intervention that makes these things more affordable. It’s been one unnecessary and exorbitant expense or the other - in the wrong direction.

If you’re an avid supporter of this government - just like everyone else you see the folly but you choose to still defend it and gaslight the rest of us, just because of what you personally stand to gain - then God be with you and may your conscience judge you in the end.

I don’t know how much more we can keep saying these things.

Everyone go and get your PVCs abeg.

Omoh, this one touch everybody, not just Peller 🧎🏻‍♂️‍➡️

[Bami- @Bamixoxo_]

First thing we need to understand with figures of speech is that context matters a lot.
Let me explain.

This will be quite lengthy, so skip it if you have a short attention span.

Euphemism: A polite substitution used to soften meaning. It is the use of a mild, polite, or indirect expression instead of one that may sound harsh, unpleasant, or offensive.

Examples:
She passed away instead of She died.
They let him go instead of They fired him.

The purpose of a euphemism is to avoid causing discomfort or offense through one’s choice of words.

Dysphemism: A harsh substitution used to intensify meaning or express disapproval. It uses a harsh, blunt, or offensive expression instead of a neutral or polite one. (Opposite of Euphemism)

Examples:
He croaked instead of He died.
Calling a house a “shack” or an old car a “heap of junk.”

These two figures of speech are not the focus because he used Peller as an example to illustrate the decline of education and the glorification of mediocrity. The best expressions to examine here are synecdoche and metonymy, which are often confused with each other.

Moving on.

Synecdoche is a figure of speech in which a part of something represents the whole, or the whole represents a part.

It is a special type of substitution. (Hold on don’t draw your conclusions yet.)

Examples (Part for the Whole):
All hands on deck. (Hands = sailors or crew members.)
There are many mouths to feed. (Mouths = people.)

Whole for Part:
Nigeria won three gold medals. (Nigeria = the Nigerian athletes.)
The school celebrated its success. (The school = the students and staff.)

Now for metonymy. It is a figure of speech in which you refer to something by the name of something else that is closely associated with it, rather than by its own name. Get it?

For example:
The White House announced a new policy.(The White House refers to the U.S. President or administration, not the building itself.)
The Crown will address the nation. (The Crown refers to the monarch.)

People confuse synecdoche and metonymy because they both involve substitution, but they work differently.

I’ve been seeing tweets saying it’s synecdoche and I don’t think some people understand the subtle difference. That’s where I come in.

The best way to understand them is this:

Synecdoche = inclusion (part–whole relationship).

Examples:
Hands = workers
Wheels = car
Heads = cattle or people

Metonymy = association (relationship by connection).

Examples:
Aso Rock = the Nigerian government
The Crown = the monarch
Nollywood = the Nigerian film industry

Synecdoche specifically depends on a part–whole relationship, whereas metonymy depends on any close association.

What do I mean?

Peller is known to be uneducated, so when ycee says “Peller culture,”

he is not saying Peller is literally a part of illiteracy as a whole. Instead, Peller has become associated with illiteracy because of his reputation as a known olodo.

That is metonymy.

It can only be synecdoche if Peller is presented as one member of a larger class, and the intention is for that member to stand for the entire class.

For example:

If he had said “Peller is the face of olodo culture in this country.”

Here, Peller is one individual standing for the larger group of illiterate people. Remember: part–whole representation.

So, in conclusion, “Peller culture” is best analyzed as metonymy because:

Peller’s name is being used because of its perceived association with the idea of illiteracy/glorification of mediocrity.

The name “Peller” becomes shorthand for the olodo uprising that ycee was criticizing.

He was not attacking Peller personally. Instead, he used Peller’s public image as a symbolic reference to a wider social issue. That is a metonymic use of the name.

You’re welcome.

An interesting point is that synecdoche is often treated as a subtype of metonymy because it is simply a more specific form of associative substitution.

Out of deep gratitude to the First Lady for her exceptional business intelligence, Randy Peterz has started selling roadside akara today.

Please share this. Pls patronise him.

[Adekunle Olopade @adekunleolopade]

There is no reason why any young person in this country today should be fighting against the need for formal education - simply because there’s a template for how to make money as an Olodo. This is the uprising we have to fight against.

We have seen what lack of education has done on a massive scale to certain regions in this country. Even how it has affected our presidents.

Buhari was insulted for having only a WAEC certificate - and that gap showed up in his government.
Tinubu currently has certificate issues that are still unresolved.

Education matters!!!

Listen, as you climb up the ladder in life, your educational qualification will matter. There is a sitting governor being positioned as an elite upriser - and today, every action he takes is still being questioned. Imagine reaching that office and your basic competence is still making the headlines.

This is exactly what we are talking about.

No one is asking everyone to be at the same level of intelligence - that’s not how the world works. But don’t glorify being ignorant and loud simply because it has yielded a source of income. Apply yourself. Up-skill. Get better.

Your future self deserves that much.

[Sir Dickson @Wizarab10]

I wanted to say this last night, but I didn't think people would understand me, if they didn't understand Ycee.

So I just left it. Are you sure they know what euphemism is?

[Azzedine Ounahi @dappillo1]

@NonsoFx_5 @instablog9ja We all are getting this topic all wrong. Ycee did not blame peller has an entity, but the character in which he portrays to the public with his craft. DF sef error, he hurriedly equated pediatric surgeon/peller/ and money to the conversation. Money!Money!!Money
