What the world is witnessing is not leadership—it is a collapse of basic decency. This is not generosity. It is extortion wrapped in a flag, and history will remember it as such.
This is not compassion. This is coercion. To expect applause from the suffering reveals a staggering lack of empathy and a dangerous exploitation of human tragedy for political vanity. Aid should never be used as a tool for ego or leverage.
Statement of Condemnation:
❌ BREAKING: Former President Donald Trump’s demand for gratitude from starving children in Gaza is not just grotesque—it is morally depraved. At a time when millions face hunger, displacement, and death, he treats humanitarian aid not as a lifeline, but as a self-serving spectacle…..
Marcellus Williams was wrongfully executed by the state of Missouri for a crime he did not commit. This marks a deeply shameful day for Missouri and an even greater failure on the part of Governor Mike Parson, who neglected his duty to prevent this grave injustice against an innocent man.
Re: Allege betrayal of the North.
I would like to address the recent accusations levelled against me regarding my alleged betrayal of the North. As a senator, my commitment to the Northern Senators Forum and the development of the North, Nigeria, and the integrity of the Senate as an institution has always been unwavering.
In my capacity as the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance and an active member of the Northern Senators Forum, I have consistently supported and advocated for the interests of the North. However, it is imperative for me, as a responsible representative, to be kept informed and included in matters that concern our region and our nation.
Regrettably, there have been instances where I have felt excluded from crucial discussions, particularly concerning Appropriations. Despite my repeated attempts to address this issue with the Forum's Secretary and Spokesman, transparency and inclusivity have not been forthcoming.
My recent statement was not intended as a betrayal but rather as a plea for transparency and fair representation. How can I be expected to support or contribute affirmatively to decisions when I am not privy to the necessary information?
I remain steadfast in my dedication to serving my Senatorial District, the North, Nigeria, and the Senate with integrity and accountability. It is my sincere hope that we can work together to ensure the interests of all stakeholders are upheld.
Signed:
Sen. Mohammed Sani Musa, CON
Chairman, Committee on Finance
National Assembly, Abuja.

Tax waivers have nothing to do with Nami. And for your information Sen. Sani Musa was appointed Chairman of the Committee on Finance just 5 months ago and the committee is now able to found out the quantum of how these laudable initiatives of waivers, tax credits and holidays are been abused fraudulently, and these losses cut across different sectors from agriculture to power to steel to sugar etc there by shortchanging the nation of enormous revenue due to the federation as a result of such abuses and fraudulent recycling, with an average of about N3.4 trillion per annum in the last 5 years, and this must stop. Go and dig to get your facts too….
It is wonderful to see that the 4 day ceasefire is holding and that prisoners and hostages are being released by both sides in the Israeli/Palestinian war.
Despite this we must consider and deal with the following home truth.
Judging by what we have seen on television since the ceasefire has been put in place it is obvious that the level of destruction that has been unleashed on Gaza by the @IDF is such that the number of casualties will be far higher than was originally stated.
So far the number released is 15,000 dead, 70% of whom are women and children.
However those numbers only reflect and account for the number of bodies that have been found ABOVE the rubble.
Those that are BELOW the rubble and whose bodies have not been found or dug up yet are likely to be far more and, judging by the utter annihilation of infrastructure that we are seeing on our television screens, I doubt they can be less than 20,000.
By the time this is all over it is quite likely that Israel would have murdered up to 35,000 innocent and defenceless Palestinians, most of whom are women and children, in the space of only 6 aeeks.
And that is BEFORE the 4 day ceasefire is lifted and comes to an end and the bombing and ground offensive starts all over again.
This, of course, remains in the realm of speculation rather than fact but it is nevertheless quite plausible and it also explains why there were reports in sections of the American media that @JoeBiden did not want the press to have access to Gaza during the ceasefire lest the real number of casualties were seen by the American public on television which would result in a massivs loss of support for Israel and by extention his administration in his country.
Those that are skeptical and that refuse to accept the possibility of this sad and bitter home truth should kindly consider the fact that only yesterday @AJEnglish reported that some of their Palestinan sources and commentators are alleging that rather than the original figure of 15,000 dead, they believe that the figure is now up to 22,000 most of whom are women and children!
Only time will tell precisely what the numbers are but if my suspicion that up to 35,000 were killed and buried turns out to be true it would represent the greatest war crime, crime against humanity, mass murder, ethnic cleansing and genocide in the space of only 6 weeks in the history of the world.
Not even Hitler killed as many people in six weeks.
The whole thing is heartbreaking.
