🇨🇳🇳🇬 A Chinese travel creator was trying local food at a market in Nigeria when a group of men stopped him and demanded money.
When he asked why, their explanation was basically: "we’re Nigerian, you’re not, so we can take money from you."
Over roughly 10 kilometers, he says he passed more than 20 checkpoints and was asked for money again and again.
His final travel review?
“Don’t come to Nigeria.”

The new Public Service Rules expressly prohibits public servants from overtly campaigning for a political party.
What happens though is that people argue as to who a public servant is and who the rules apply to and who it doesn’t. You can describe a public servant as anybody paid from government coffers. But by that definition, even the President and the legislators are public servants. It would be absurd to expect them not to be overtly political. However, a political appointee is another matter.
Perhaps the better thing to do is to expressly exclude certain positions from being overtly political in the Constitution and in the laws establishing those organisations. For instance, the Chairman of INEC is a public servant but is excluded from political partisanship by the Constitution and the Electoral Act. I believe that the CBN Act too prohibits the Governor. You could do the same for other sensitive positions.
Senator Melaye raises the issue of potential conflict of interest in the case of the NRS Chairman. He is supported by the revised Public Service Rules but the INEC v Musa judgement has not yet been overturned.
It would deepen our jurisprudence for Senator Melaye to test the matter in court.

It really has never been this bad
Dear Nigerians,
Stop everything & listen to this. Because new born babies in Singapore will receive:
* A baby gift of S$10,000.
* A medicine grant of S$5,000.
* A S$5000 child development initial grant.
* S$5000 dollar-for-dollar xtra matching grant
THAT’S NOT ALL !!!
* Every Singaporean child will continue to get annual credits of S$2000 from age 1-16.
* At 17, every Singaporean child will get an additional S$10,000 deposited into their post-secondary school education account.
In total, every child will receive nearly S$70,000 ($55,000) as they grow up. Families with more children will receive more support.
The Singaporean government is giving nearly ₦77 million in total direct financial support to every Singaporean child from birth to age 17.
NOTE: Singapore is not an oil-producing country. It has zero domestic crude oil reserves & does not extract petroleum from the ground.
Singapore imports its oil 100%.
Thanks to Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore is one of the four Asian Tigers. It shares this title with Hong Kong, South Korea, & Taiwan.
Prime Minister Lawrence Wong delivered this powerful speech yesterday to mark Singapore's National Day Rally 2026. He announced major updates on public housing, family support, & digital safeguards for Singaporean youths.
This is how a leader addresses his people. As a Nigerian, can you see what leadership looks like? WHAT DOES NIGERIA DO FOR YOU?
Your landlord hikes your rent from ₦30,000 to ₦300,000, then drags you to the bank and forces you to take a loan just to afford it.
That’s the perfect description of NELFUND.
2018, Nigeria shared ₦7.98 trillion through FAAC. At the CBN exchange rate at the time, that was about $26 billion.
In 2025, FAAC was ₦21.9 trillion. That sounds like a massive increase which is almost three times the 2018 figure. But using the CBN rate for 2025, it comes to only about $14.4 billion.
That tells us quite a bit about what has happened to the naira.
In 2018, you needed roughly ₦306 to buy $1. By 2025, you needed around ₦1,500. So yes, there are many more naira in the system today, but each naira is worth much less than it was seven years ago.

This is scary: this what Peter Obi spoke about. How can Tinubu abandon existing roads in Nigeria to start new projects?
How can Nigerians survive?
Just from Benin, you spend 3 days on the road? This is scary 😨
Nigerians trapped on the Benin road are creating extra paths in the bush to escape the gridlock.😭
See the pains and sufferings the people have to go through because of a terrible and irresponsible leadership!✍️
