By now, Abure and Lamidi Apapa would have understood the phrase that “nothing lasts forever.”

As at May 2022 when Peter Obi entered Labour Party, Abure was just a Chairman of a party with little known identity.

The party had zero presence of any elective member across the country.

In fact, the Party's presidential candidate in 2019, Muhammed Usman Zaki, had only struggled to secure a staggered 5,074 votes nationwide, which was 0.019% of the total vote share in the election.

But the presence of Peter Obi gave the party a new face, with a Governor, 8 Senators, 34 House of Reps members, 38 State House of Assembly seats nationwide and 6,101,533 million votes.

Julius Abure thought he had arrived, not knowing that it was his divine opportunity to be at the limelight.

He and his people used greed to internally wrangle the party to the extent that it became unhealthy for another presidential ambition.

Today, neither Abure nor Apapa has a hold of the party. The control of the party has legally been taken over by Senator Nenadi Usman, who heads the party's National Caretaker Committee.

Even INEC had long wiped their names from the party's portal.

No one would even want to make any political deal with any of them because they bear no influence, neither do they have any political currency to spend on anyone's ambition.

A greedy man will always be good to no one, but in the long run, will always be worse to themselves.

I have been thinking about something lately, and the more I think about it, the more disturbing it becomes.

A lot of Nigerians became poor without doing anything wrong.

They didn’t stop working. They didn’t become lazy. They didn’t suddenly become irresponsible.

They simply woke up one day and realised that the money they had worked for could no longer buy the things it used to buy.

Think about someone earning ₦100,000 a month.

The person still wakes up early every morning, goes to work, puts in the same hours, probably works even harder, gets promoted occasionally and does everything society says a responsible person should do.

Yet every year, that person seems to be able to afford less.

At some point, ₦50,000 could buy a reasonable amount of food for the house. Today, you can enter the market with the same ₦50,000 and genuinely wonder where the money went.

Nothing happened to you.

The economy happened to you.

And I think this is something we don’t talk about enough.

Imagine working hard for years, only for circumstances completely outside your control to quietly reduce the value of everything you have worked for.

You didn’t lose your job.

You didn’t lose your salary.

But somehow, you lost your standard of living.

That is poverty too.

And this is why I struggle with the way we sometimes discuss palliatives.

Of course, when people are hungry, you must find ways to help them immediately. There is nothing wrong with providing temporary relief.

But surely, the bigger question should be:

Why did millions of working Nigerians suddenly need palliatives in the first place?

If a man could comfortably buy a bag of rice from his salary a few years ago and today he needs government assistance to buy that same bag of rice, giving him rice may solve today’s hunger.

But it has not solved the actual problem.

The real problem is that his labour has lost value.

And perhaps that is what we should be obsessed with fixing.

How do we make the Nigerian worker’s income valuable again?

How do we make ₦100,000 buy more next year, rather than less?

How do we make food cheaper by producing more?

How do we reduce the cost of energy and transportation?

How do we build an economy where salaries can actually keep up with the cost of living?

Because when I think deeply about it, perhaps one of the greatest things a government can do for its people is not to keep giving them money.

It is to build an economy where the money they earn has value.

There is dignity in being able to take care of yourself from the product of your own labour.

There is dignity in a teacher being able to feed a family from teaching.

There is dignity in a nurse being able to pay rent from nursing.

There is dignity in a young person working an honest job and gradually seeing life improve.

People should be able to look back after five years of hard work and say, “My life has become better.”

Not, “I earn more money today, but somehow I can afford less.”

That is the part that keeps bothering me.

Millions of Nigerians are not asking to become millionaires overnight.

They just want hard work to make sense again.

And maybe that should be one of the simplest ways we measure whether our economy is actually working:

Is the ordinary Nigerian who works hard becoming progressively better off, or progressively poorer?

Everything else is secondary.

Peller’s Wedding Guests: Foreign Espionage And African Entertainment

When influencers and "foreign guests" collide, as is the case here, we are not watching a wedding but a social engineering operation

It is very clear here that the rise of our internet sensations is often engineered. When foreign money starts flowing into our digital spaces, it is time to start asking who is really behind the screen and what they’re buying with those "gifts." It’s time for Africans to stop being spectators to our own subversion.

[Samuel Omogor @SamuelOmogor]

VIDEO: If you don't understand Yoruba, get someone to interpret what this Tinubu’s kinsman is saying. UNDILUTED TRUTH.

“I was happy when I saw that a Yoruba man is in Aso Rock (President). The reason is becauseFashola worked in Lagos, Ambode worked in Lagos. I didn't know i was catching myself MUGU. If Tinubu wilk do well, you will see it in the food the citizens will eat and the water we buy. It will not be well with that person who sees the truth and refused to speak it... Tinubu, you have killed us all. You have done worse to use than bandits and herdsmen. Look at Sanwo-Olu in Lagos, busy enjoying himself while we’re suffering. Sanwo-Olu and Dapo Abiodun are smelling humans. They should come arrest and lock me up.”

- A Yoruba man cries out.

Me: Did the man lie about the economic and security situation of the country under the Tinubu’s regime? The difference between the economic and security realities in Nigeria vs the Tinubu’s regime propaganda is like the difference between an Undisputed World Heavy Weight Boxing Fight and the Celebrity Boxing Bout between Portable and Charles Okocha.

But some of you should continue deceiving yourselves.

[Kalu Aja @FinPlanKaluAja1]

The issue we face is generational.

I witnessed Nigeria's potential in my youth, and I see the nation today; I know what is possible.

During my five years at university, my total tuition was less than N600, and my accommodation was also less than N600, all directly subsidized by the Federal Government of Nigeria (FGN).

At that time, while the FGN subsidized my education, there was no VAT or revenue from telecommunications, banking, remittances, or NLNG, yet they were able to fund it. My point is this: revenues have increased, but public services have deteriorated.

Back then, the President drove a locally assembled Peugeot 504, supplied from Kaduna, just like the ministers; there were no SUVs or presidential air fleets.

Many young people today have never seen Nigeria with:

1. Water flowing from public taps 24/7
2. A consistent power supply
3. Free education

The youth have been conditioned to expect little from public services, so when they do experience even a small improvement, they are genuinely amazed and appreciative. But even that is just 1%; where is the remaining 99%?

I appreciate their comments; they cannot envision functionality in today’s challenging environment. It is those from my generation who have exploited that ignorance to sell misleading narratives to the youth of today.

NA STATISTICS WE GO CHOP?

Calvary greetings my dear brother Olusegun,

I am surprised that after the statement from Tchief Tinubu on 25 November 2022 during his presidential campaign rally in Delta State, cackling “na statistics we go chop” our very handsome president has now promoted himself from hating statistics to manufacturing them.
What he cannot forge does not exist

Since the numbers refused to favour his administration, he has now hired a graphics designer (possibly from the same shop that printed his certificate), and has gone ahead to stamp “FULFILLED” to deceive himself. At least in this government, if reality no gree, Canva go cooperate.

Everyone in APC now “celebrate” statistics but nobody in that party seems to be able to differentiate between a law, a conference, and an actual implementation or accomplishment.

So as usual, LET ME EDUCATE YOU.

1. When did you fulfill the FX reform?
Is there not still persistent volatility?
Has the reform produced a credible foreign exchange market? The naira lost a large share of its value. Businesses struggled to access foreign exchange.
Under this govt, naira has experienced an over 200% depreciation.
$460 when you came, $1600 today.

2. Your administration listing Fiscal discipline and deficit mgt as fulfilled is laughable. Under Tinubu our debt japad from ₦87.4 trn to ₦159.28trn in 18 months, borrowing 4x faster than Buhari, who was already Nigeria's biggest borrower ever. Tinubu is the largest and fastest borrower amongst our last 3 presidents combined. 16 years from Yaradua to Buhari was ₦84trn, just 3 years of Tinubu is ₦72trn as at December.

Also what is our Debt to GDP value? Debt servicing is consuming the largest chunk of government revenue, Interest payments remain high and Fiscal pressure has increased.
We don’t even have a budget, Tinubu has not published a budget report since 2024 but here he is with Oluwole graphics claiming fulfilled.

3. The only foreign investment Tinubu has fulfilled is taking himself to foreign countries. Tinubu has spent over 344 days out of the country since he became President.
Not a single investment announcements under Tinubu has translated into job creation or measurable productivity growth. Just pieces of papers and media propaganda.

4. What is CREDICORP? How many customers right now can access the credit?
Where can I walk in today and easily obtain affordable consumer credit? You people are jokers.

5. Tax Reforms Act, please don’t get me started…
Is this the same Tax Reform Act that sparked outrage over allegations that the gazetted version was different from what lawmakers approved? The same tax reform that was confirmed to the whole nation that was forged. Is that what APC just celebrated as an achievement 😂…Ehhhh nitori olorun

6. What is the achievement in crude oil production? Why hasn’t it translated into lower fuel costs? How much was fuel when Tinubu came to power and how much is it today?
Mr. Subsidy is gone 😭

7. Has electricity become reliable? What has the Tinubu’s govt done with Electricity in Nigeria? From Band A to bandits because we are all operating in the dark.
The existence of legislation is different from improved electricity supply.

Nigeria's national grid has collapsed at least 20 times under Tinubu
What is his achievement in electricity?
Don’t forget he said: If I don’t give you CONSTANT electricity for 4 years don’t vote for me. Where is the electricity @officialABAT

8. None of the PIA has been fully implemented. Another immeasurable fallacy.

9. Fuel Subsidy 😭
Tinubuuuuuuu @officialABAT how did you even include this as an achievement? Where is the money Nigeria saved from subsidy? Why are we still borrowing?
This was an economical lifelong injury.
Inflation increased, transportation increased, food costs increased
You failed, this is the biggest implementation failure.

F9 in economics, C in graphics designing😭.
I’m sleepy and out of twitter characters, just wait let me wake up💁🏼‍♀️

Did you all notice how cordial and respectful Reno Omokri's birthday wishes to Peter Obi were this year?

Do you all know why?

Reno Omokri is beginning to think that he might just have been scammed with an ambassadorial appointment by the administration of President Tinubu.

His inability to resume his ambassadorial role even after 219 days of Senate confirmation is beginning to bother him.

Reno may have realized that it is not wise to lose both relationships and an appointment by continuing to do the dirty job, while others who are not rolling in the mud like him go about enjoying juicy appointments in other places.

After all, Reno has been a political opportunist and in Reno kind of politics, you never really know where the next opportunity will come from.

Lol.

We have been invited to Singapore for 2027. We will challenge their best students in Maths.

The winners of the 2027 South East Maths Olympiad will challenge the best in Singapore in 2027. 56 other countries will join too.

I like how the world is now taking an interest in our children.

I am benchmarking our education against that of Singapore, Finland, Shanghai, China, Canada, and the US.

This is how we can move from being a third-world country to a first-world country.

The future is looking exciting.

Unfortunate greetings to you @OgbeniDipo

This message is not in anyway intent to educate you, you've descended below the capacity to retain any form of intelligence - it is intended to ridicule you.

Absolute wonderkids went to represent the country you claim to love more than us, they excelled wonderfully only for you to dogwhistle your fellow ewedu crooners to a space in order to ridicule them on the grounds of their ethnicity.

You and your fellow guttersnipes love to exist in the delusion that you're the most educated tribe - as someone who has twice whatever the height of your academic peak is, no modicum of education shines through you - just bubbles of intellectual fraud & disgusting bìgötry (I added the ami ohun to satisfy your insatiable need for cultural preservation.

For years, you hawked CV reviews like your life depended on it - when it stopped putting food on your table, you began to ridicule education to promote the akaranification & kukulization of the economy just because of your new job designation as Dean of Studies, Apoda Twitter.

It hurts me personally you know, that a good number of trees have to stay alive just to satisfy the oxygen need for people like you. People like you who play destructive roles in the society, who deserve to be melted into asphalt to fill potholes.

People like you are cancerous because your presumed academic journey & perceived exposure allows your to command a certain level audience when the strength of your intelligence can be measured in kilobytes.

Whatever Alex has done that you and your insiduous ilk suppose to imitate, celebrate, collaborate or encourage - you're tearing down at the expense of children who have done nothing to you.

Just because the covering duvet doesn't have pockets, motorcycles don't have conductors & we cannot put airconditioning units in tricycles - every single effort you commit to will convert to vain.

If the owners of the morning agree to initiate your progress, the custodians of the night will stage a protest.

We cannot be championing a campaign against olodo uprising only for our first major academic win as a country to surface weeks after - only for proglottides like yourselves to shit on it, just because it satisfies your bìgötry KPIs.

It will not be well with you.

This lying double-mouthed dishonest aide called Daniel Bwala that you publicly exposed his hypocrisy to the world a few months ago, now claims Al Jazeera “apologised” to him over your interview with him.

Please is this claim true?
And if true, what exactly did Al Jazeera apologise to him for?

Pls retweet until @mehdirhasan sees this and publicly responds to clear the air.

Hate him or Love him, Mr Bayo Onanuga gives you an unfiltered access to the mind of the President.

He’s one man you can truly say speaks for the President. He mirrors Tinubu’s lack of empathy and concern towards the suffering masses. Just like his boss, he’s completely disconnected from the harsh realities citizens face everyday as a result of their actions.

The funny guy from my local government who runs EDO APC as chairman went to Ekiti.

The disgraceful INEC under Amupitan gave him “an observer jacket” after surreptitiously accrediting him as same.

The unintelligent guy, in a bid to boast took pictures and uploaded same on his social media.

Then came the backlash against him and the disgraced INEC under Amupitan.

The “not so” intelligent gentleman has now gone on national TV to say the picture is AI.

If Nigerians do not expel the APC, the APC will expel Nigerians.
