Under the EU's Common Market Organisation rules, it is illegal to market FFMP as milk.
They are classified as dairy "ingredient," not food. But in Nigeria, it's sold like the real thing, with no pushback from regulators.
These things are not “milk”.
That’s your truth… but it’s a subjective truth…it does not in any way, shape or form show that objectively, the God you’re appealing to is real.
And we know this through the observation of the general human condition on this planet… a lot of nonbelievers have survived just as much as any believer. Believers do not have any marked achievements, protections, or survival advantages that consistently distinguish them from non believers in any measurable, universal sense.
What you’re describing is a powerful personal interpretation of your experiences, not evidence of a supernatural cause. Humans are meaning making creatures….we naturally look for patterns, agency, and purpose, especially after hardship. This is well studied in Cognitive Psychology…we tend to attribute outcomes to intentional forces rather than randomness, particularly when emotions are involved.
Survival itself isn’t proof of divine intervention…it’s a baseline feature of life. People survive war, disease, poverty, accidents, and trauma across every religion and outside of religion entirely. If survival is evidence for God, then it equally validates every god that people across cultures believe in….which leads to an obvious contradiction.
A Christian, a Muslim, and a Hindu can all say “God saved me,” but they’re referring to mutually incompatible ideas of God. A Buddhist would appeal to clarity of thought and mind from deep meditations…. They can’t all be objectively correct.
What’s more, if survival is taken as evidence for God, then what do we do with those who didn’t survive? The same logic would imply divine non-existence. And most importantly show that subjective experience of survival as evidence that a god is real cannot override the equally strong evidence that the god appealed to isn’t real on cases where believers like yourself didn’t survive.
Once you apply the reasoning universally, your point stops being convincing.
A more grounded explanation is that humans survive because of biology, chance, social support systems, medical care, and resilience. And when they come out the other side, they interpret that survival through whatever worldview they already hold. A believer says “God did it,” an atheist says “I endured it,” and someone else might say “luck, circumstance, and help from others.”
Your experience is valid as an experience…but the conclusion you draw from it isn’t logically compelling at all. It’s one interpretation among many possible ones, and it doesn’t rise to the level of objective evidence.
Nigeria dey enter one-chance wey go shock generations.
FIRS don sign MoU with France DGFiP to “modernise tax administration”, “data-driven enforcement”, “information exchange”, and “capacity building”.
If you like believe that sweet grammar. The real meaning be say Nigeria don open gate make France enter the engine room of our entire tax system. Who dey advise these people.
Make we talk am clear. France no be ordinary country for Africa. France na the most aggressive economic intelligence power for West Africa.
Dem hold CFA zone countries for neck. Dem dey control currency reserves. Dem dey shape customs rules. Dem dey monitor financial flows from Dakar reach N’Djamena.
Dem dey embed “advisers” inside governments. Dem no dey play. Na how dem take keep themselves relevant for global stage.
Without Africa, France go be middle-tier nation wey nobody send.
See the pattern. Once France enter your revenue backend, dem go fit read your whole economy like Bible. Who dey pay tax.
Who dey evade.
Which industry dey weak.
Which sectors dey profitable.
How money dey enter.
How money dey comot.
Which region get wealth.
Where political networks dey hide.
Na pure power dem dey collect.
And Tinubu government carry am go give dem for free like Valentine gift.
Instead of building sovereign capacity, Nigeria dey outsource its fiscal brain to foreign power wey survive by controlling African economies.
Even francophone countries dey fight to escape France grip. But Nigeria dey rush enter am by sef. Shame no dey catch una.
And make we set the history straight. France built its wealth by using African tax, labor, rubber, gold, cash crops, and minerals to enrich itself. Today dem no dey use chains again. Dem dey use MoUs, “digital transformation”, “BEPS frameworks”, and “cross-border cooperation”. Na modern colonisation. Same script. New costume.
Now imagine say France get access to Nigeria revenue architecture as we transition from FIRS to Nigeria Revenue Service in 2026.
That one mean the entire foundation of our future tax system fit get foreign fingerprints. Backend. Algorithms. Enforcement logic. Data pipeline. Compliance structure.
Who you wan fight tomorrow when your whole fiscal house dey exposed to another country.
Which serious nation dey do this. Does America give IRS backend to Mexico.
Does UK give HMRC to Pakistan.
Does India give its tax system to China.
Does France give its revenue architecture to Algeria.
Never. But Nigeria dey always behave like mumu giant wey dey sign away sovereignty for photo-op.
Nigerians, una dey watch una future dey auction off.
“Our dear native land” no be poetry again.
E dey slip away for broad daylight. Line by line. Signature by signature. Document by document.
If una like continue dey clap.
Continue dey suffer. Continue dey play tribal politics.
But know this truth. Once foreign power hold your tax DNA, your country no get independence again.
No be to carry weapon. But every sensible Nigerian suppose stand up talk one voice. We cannot allow this. Not today. Not tomorrow. Not ever.
The day I realised I was doing something right was when my mum told me that two different parents had approached her, hoping to give their daughters' hands in marriage to me. I was impressed with myself and with my life. It meant I wasn’t doing badly at all.
You people carried an entire country to reward a man that helped you privately. An entire country because “daddy was good to you and your family”. No thoughts for the future of this country. Someone with no plans.
You are all insane and God will punish you.

Abdullahi Umar Ganduje.
Former Governor of Kano State (2015–2023), APC National Chairman (2023–2025), and currently Chairman of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) Board (2025–present).
In 2018, dollar bribe videos surfaced showing him allegedly accepting $5,000 bundles from contractors, spread across 8 clips. He denied the authenticity, calling them “fake.” The Kano State Attorney General later filed 11 charges against him in 2024, with the trial adjourned to November 26, 2025.
Investigations into Kano State finances allege he diverted over ₦5.6 billion from the treasury. In the Dala Dry Port deal, the state’s 20% stake was reportedly transferred to family-linked companies, inflating costs from $1.5 million to $2.7 million.
Ganduje was also implicated in election manipulation in 2019, with INEC initially withholding results amid ballot stuffing and violence claims. His main rival was Rabiu Kwankwaso’s son-in-law.
In 2019, he deposed Emir Sanusi over alleged financial misconduct; the emir was reinstated in 2024, reversing Ganduje’s move.
After resigning as APC Chairman in June 2025 citing “health reasons,” he was widely believed to have been forced out due to party infighting and lawsuits, particularly a failed political deal with Kwankwaso.
He was later appointed FAAN Board Chair widely seen as a “consolation prize” from Tinubu, overseeing airports while avoiding legal consequences.
These are your leaders.
#TheseAreYourLeaders Episode IV.
Ibrahim Shekarau.
Former Governor of Kano State (2003–2011), later Senator and Minister of Education.
Alleged by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) to have mismanaged ~₦420 million during his gubernatorial tenure, inflation of contract sums, double awards of contracts, abuse of power.
Arraigned by the EFCC in 2018 on 6 counts of conspiracy and money laundering involving ₦950 million allegedly collected in 2015 election influence scheme.
His term as governor coincided with expansion of strict Sharia law enforcement in Kano State, including empowerment of the Hisbah Board (Islamic moral‑policing agency).
These are your leaders.
#TheseAreYourLeaders Episode VI.
Abubakar Atiku Bagudu.
Former Governor of Kebbi State (2015–2023), Senator (2009‑2015), currently serving as Nigeria’s Minister of Budget and National Planning (appointed 2023).
Bagudu is named in multiple publicly available U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) documents as an associate and a bagman of Sani Abacha and his sons in a conspiracy to embezzle, misappropriate and launder hundreds of millions of dollars of public funds from Nigeria.
In one scheme the DOJ complaint alleges the government of Nigeria was caused to purchase Nigerian government bonds at vastly inflated prices from a company controlled by Bagudu and Mohammed Abacha, generating an illegal windfall of more than US $282 million for Bagudu and Mohammed Abacha.
In addition, Bagudu is alleged to have participated in extortion of “more than US $11 million” from a French company and its Nigerian affiliate in connection with payments on government contracts. The DOJ further states that Bagudu and others laundered the proceeds through U.S. financial institutions and high‑risk offshore trusts.
A 2020 repatriation agreement mentioned that the U.S. was seeking to enforce forfeiture of “over US $177 million” in additional laundered funds held in trusts naming Bagudu and his relatives as beneficiaries. A 2020 investigation by TheCable reports that Bagudu agreed, via settlement, to return about US $155 million worth of assets in a deal with the Nigerian federal government.
During his governorship in Kebbi State, Bagudu was alleged to have used state contracts and infrastructure projects to favour associates and companies linked to him or his family, raising concerns about conflicts of interest and transparency (implied in the CISLAC and other reports). The linkage to the Abacha looting allegations and offshore financial structures also raises questions about the integrity of his financial dealings both prior to and during his time in office.
His current ministerial role places him in charge of national planning and budget allocation. The joke of it all.
These are your leaders.
What is the worth of a Nigerian life living in Nigeria
The president pardon of murderers, human traffickers, drug pushers etc the worst of society
Probably this could be me scenerio. It might just be a plan for something more sinister. A collector making collections.
I stopped commenting on the matter after I was made aware of the full podcast. I don’t think Maraji also saw the full podcast, most people only saw the social media clip.
It did put the man’s experience in context and yes, he wasn’t comparing or complaining, heck he was advising men to brace up for the challenges ahead, which I actually agree with.
Who are you? You are clearly of no significance.
The man you are supporting is a
drug dealer
certificate forger
prolific liar
mic licker
Constitution killer
Judge briber
Kleptomaniac
Power monger
Fund abuser and an illegitimate dictator working his way to becoming an emperor wishing Nigeria becomes his empire!
You lack the morals to call Peter Obi out on all grounds.
