For this recovery to resonate fully with the public, the EFCC must prioritize transparency and accountability. The magnitude of this recovery demands full disclosure— we demand details and the official’s identity be made public. Without these, trust in the system risks eroding…

Kudos to the EFCC for their efforts, but the fight against corruption demands holistic reforms and accountability at every step to inspire genuine public trust.

[Murray Rothbard @MurraySuggests]

The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.

The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.

Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.

If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

@DejiAdesogan This flip flop clown

[Olamide Oni @lamidex2]

Whenever citizens demand answers, we are told the matter is far more complex. Whenever the government falls short, we are reminded of intelligence considerations. Whenever innocent people are killed, abducted, or displaced, we are asked to trust that unseen forces are diligently at work behind the curtain.
At some point, complexity ceases to be an explanation and becomes an excuse. The primary duty of any government is the protection of lives and property. A government that repeatedly fails to secure its citizens cannot seek refuge in the complexity of the threat it was elected to confront.

Citizens are not obliged to applaud failure simply because the challenge is difficult. Nor should they be lectured about terrorist propaganda for expressing outrage at insecurity.
The social contract is simple, government provides security, and citizens provide legitimacy. When one side persistently defaults on its obligation, it should not be surprised when confidence erodes and calls for political change grow louder. Competence is not measured by the sophistication of explanations but by the quality of results.

The tragedy is that every shallow and poorly reasoned take he produces is met with applause from people who mistake volume for substance. Predictably, that reinforcement only emboldens him to recycle the same intellectual mediocrity with greater confidence.

A bad argument is one thing; a bad argument constantly validated by an uncritical audience is quite another.

Ethiopia was never colonized.

For much of its history, it was one of the poorest countries on the continent.

Meanwhile, Vietnam was colonized by the French, devastated by decades of war, and is now on its way to serious economic prosperity.

If colonialism were the answer to why Africa is poor, Ethiopia should be rich and Vietnam should be broke. Neither is true.

Can we please retire this excuse?

[Olamide Oni @lamidex2]

Colonialism undoubtedly left deep scars, distorted institutions, and extracted wealth.

However, it is equally dishonest to attribute every contemporary African failure to events that ended decades ago. Historical grievances may explain certain starting conditions, but they do not explain perpetual underperformance.

Nations rise and fall on the quality of their institutions, leadership, productivity, innovation, and civic culture.

At some point, a society must transition from explaining its circumstances to improving them.

Africa's greatest obstacle today is not colonialism,it is the persistent failure of governance, accountability, and collective responsibility. History matters, but it cannot be allowed to become a permanent alibi for present-day shortcomings.

The mind is often a silent archivist of the final thoughts we carry into sleep. The people, emotions, and memories we entertain before surrendering to the night have a curious way of finding their echoes in our dreams.

De Law, You have identified the two haemorrhages that no amount of tactical bandages can stop: FUNDING AND RECRUITMENT.

Every t£rr0r!st k*lled is replaced within weeks sometimes days because the pipeline never dries up. As long as the money flows and the pool of desperate, illiterate, impoverished youth remains deep, the military is playing whack‑a‑mole with human lives.

♦️ ON FUNDING: The government has made progress. Just this week, the DSS traced over ₦2 billion to a single suspect's bank account . The UAE has frozen assets linked to BOKOHARAM/ISWAP financiers. But these are isolated successes, not a systematic strategy.

We need:
✅ A dedicated anti‑terrorism financing task force with real-time intelligence sharing between NFIU, EFCC, DSS, and international partners.
✅ Prosecution of sponsors not just foot soldiers.
✅ Targeting of informal financial systems (crypto, hawala, trade‑based laundering) that t£rr0r!st networks exploit.

♦️ ON RECRUITMENT: You are right, t£rr0r!sts are not from heaven. They are from our societies. They are products of mass weddings, illiteracy, poverty, and uncontrolled births. When a young man has no job, no hope, no future, a t£rr0r!st recruiter offering ₦50,000 even sometimes below and a sense of belonging becomes his only career option.

WHAT WE NEED:
✅ Mass investment in education and vocational training in vulnerable communities.
✅ Mandatory Family planning and birth registration to break the cycle of ungoverned populations.
✅ Economic empowerment programmes targeted at at‑risk youth not as charity, but as counter‑insurgency model.

But here is the hard truth: neither funding nor recruitment can be stopped solely at the federal level. State and local governments are where the ground is lost or held. A governor who allows mass weddings of underage girls is not a cultural conservative he is a recruitment officer for t£rr0r!sts. A Governor or Local government chairman who looks away while illegal mining funds banditry is not a pragmatist he is an enabler.

The fight against t£rr0r!sm will never end if we only treat the symptoms while ignoring the disease.

We need bombs and schools. We need Raids and jobs. We need Arrests and family planning and we need Kinetic force and economic opportunity.

This is not about scoring political points. This is about survival. And if we do not address the cause, we will keep burying the consequences.

NIGERIA POLICE FORCE CALLS FOR CALM OVER REPORTED XENOPHOBIC ATTACKS IN SOUTH AFRICA

The Nigeria Police Force addresses the public regarding reports of xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in South Africa and concerns about possible reprisal attacks on South African nationals, businesses, and interests in Nigeria.

After the Joint Intelligence Board Meeting on 18 May 2026, chaired by the National Security Adviser, security and intelligence agencies conducted a comprehensive review to assess security implications and determine necessary response measures.
The Nigeria Police Force assures Nigerians that there is no cause for alarm. The Federal Government is actively engaging relevant authorities and stakeholders through diplomatic, intelligence, and security channels to resolve the situation peacefully and protect the interests of Nigerians at home and abroad.

While concerns about attacks on Nigerians in South Africa are understandable, the public is strongly advised not to take the law into their own hands. Reprisal attacks, violence, intimidation, destruction of property, hate speech, or any conduct that threatens public peace and national security is unlawful and will not be tolerated.
Nigeria remains a nation governed by the rule of law. All persons lawfully residing within the country, irrespective of nationality, are entitled to protection under the law. Consequently, any attempt to target South African nationals, diplomatic facilities, businesses, or other lawful interests within Nigeria will be treated as a criminal act and dealt with in accordance with extant laws.

The Force urges the public to refrain from spreading unverified, inflammatory, or inciting information, especially on social media. Sharing false or provocative content can escalate tensions, undermine public order, and hinder diplomatic efforts to resolve the situation.

The Nigeria Police Force, in collaboration with other security and intelligence agencies, has implemented security measures and increased surveillance around critical national assets, foreign missions, and other key locations. Adequate deployments have been made to prevent any breakdown of law and order.

The Force remains fully committed to protecting lives and property, preserving public peace, and maintaining national security. The public is encouraged to remain calm, law-abiding, vigilant, and to continue their lawful activities without fear.

The Nigeria Police Force appreciates the cooperation and understanding of all Nigerians and assures the public that relevant government institutions are actively managing the situation in the interest of national security and international relations.

@aleeygiwa Take heart

[Olamide Oni @lamidex2]

Let them focus on the real afflictions confronting the nation instead of waging war against joy, culture, and communal celebration.

A man whose roof is on fire has no business quarrelling with his neighbour’s drumbeat. It is astonishing that some have chosen a centuries-old cultural festival as their preferred battlefield.

The truth is simple, barren trees attract no stones. It is the tree laden with fruit that draws attention, envy, and hostility.

Not every shadow deserves a fight. Some people see a gathering of culture, heritage, and happiness and become offended because misery is the only language they speak. Let them direct that energy toward demanding accountability, security, and good governance.

Allow people to celebrate their heritage while continuing to demand solutions to the issues that truly threaten our collective future.
