Dear citizens of Nigeria,
The Naira manipulation that began on Binance has now shifted to Bybit. It is the work of Emergency Lovers of Nigeria. The authorities are aware of it. The same way our government moved against Binance is the same way they will fish out those price gouging the Naira on Bybit.
These guys are desperate. They backed a failed presidential candidate, and now this is their revenge against Nigeria. Which is why they have used platforms, like Arise TV and some pastors, to project and prophesy that the Naira would fall to β¦2000 and β¦2500 to $1.
What you as a citizen, can do is join the #GrowNairaBuyNaija movement. As they put negative pressure on the Naira, we will put positive force on our currency. And no matter how hard they push, good will always triumph over evil.

How Nigeria and Africa Can Be Rich in One Generation
If we want to progress as a country in Nigeria, and if Africa wants to go from Third World to First, the following subjects must not be optional in secondary schools. They must be mandatory. And if you don't take and pass them, you should not graduate:
Agriculture
Technology
Islamic Religious Knowledge (compulsory for Christians)
Christian Religious Knowledge (necessary for Muslims)
General Knowledge of African Traditional Religions (mandatory for all students, regardless of religion)
Mathematics
Science
Computer coding
One indigenous language
We should not have a curriculum where English is compulsory and science is optional and where English literature is mandatory, while African culture is non existent. That is why Black African nations rate people by their English, French, Portuguese, Dutch and Arabic phonetics, while in China, people are rated by their ability to build things.
An African will look up to his fellow African who can speak posh English and look down on an African mechanic who can build a car from scraps. Am I lying?
By the time an African student leaves Secondary School, he should know how to feed himself with his hands through agriculture. Tai and Sheila Solarin achieved this at Mayflower School, Ikenne. It is possible. We cannot have a continent of over a billion people, surrounded by arable land, begging, borrowing and buying food from others.
And if every Black African child can code, they will make money without needing a job, especially if their various governments empower them with free Internet access. But we must block access to TikTok and have safeguards that prevent our women from turning free access to data into an opportunity to overload the Internet with booty shaking videos, as if God made buttocks for only our women.
If we go this route, 419, romance scams, yahoo and Yahoo Plus will all die natural deaths!
And we need to start translating as many science books into all African languages as possible. Do I hear you say it is impossible? Please fact-check me. The Bible has been translated into over 1000 African languages, while science books have been translated into less than 50 African languages.
It is easier to translate Science into African languages than the Bible. But we do not do it. Why?
Yet, in China, Bibles are banned. Only the government of China is allowed to print Bibles. The only other time the Chinese government permits Bibles to be published is if they are to be exported. Please fact-check me.
That is the reason why sub-Saharan Africans are praying to God to meet our needs, while Asians are using their hands to meet their needs.
And even with all the Bibles we read and the Scriptures many Asians do not read, are we better than them in terms of morals? Japan is more morally upright than any Christian nation on Earth. Again, please fact-check me.
We Africans need to rethink the trajectory of our lives, or we will continue to sink into religiosity even as we are growing in depravity, and even worse, we are regressing in many areas.
