Dear Nigerians, PAY ATTENTION!
World leaders are gathering on the French Alps for their 52nd Summit. G7 is a Group of Seven nations, their annual meeting starts today.
President Trump just arrived after celebrating his colorful 80th birthday at the White House.
THIS IS WORLD POLITICS AT ITS FINEST!
The G7 gather annually to discuss global economics, security, policy, & geopolitics. G7 members are major IMF advanced economies.
They decide your fate. They control the World Bank & the IMF. Your loans largely come from them. This year’s Summit is happening LIVE in Évian town in France, along the Swiss border.
President Emmanuel Macron is hosting.
The G7 includes America, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, & the United Kingdom.
Invitee nations (guests) at this year’s summit include Brazil, Egypt, India, Kenya, South Korea, Qatar, Ukraine, & the United Arab Emirates.
The G7 is the highest level of diplomacy. This is Geopolitics at center stage. If you’re not here? Then you should be at the BRICS (the counter geopolitical bloc). If you don’t belong in of the camps? THEN YOU ARE A NOBODY!
It’s another victory for Kenya. The only African invitee. South Africa, Kenya, & Rwanda have taken the spotlight on the continent. Nigeria is no longer in rooms where “global politics” is discussed. The APC made sure of that.
Guess what? Nigeria used to be an invitee.
You were invited five times. OBJ (2000, 2002, & 2005), Muhammadu Buhari (2015), & Yemi Osinbajo (2017) were once at this Summit.
Asiwaju has done 3 years without an invitation. Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the failure of Geopolitics & Foreign Policy. Despite his affinity with Macron, Nigeria has been largely sidelined.
Obasanjo remains the only Nigerian President to have addressed the group of powerful industrialized nations 3x. He remains the only Nigerian President to have been invited 3x.
Others came for handshakes & photo ops.
OBJ was at the G8 Summit in Scotland (2005) where he addressed the Summit. He was at the G8 Meeting in Okinawa, Japan (2000) as well.
That was how he achieved debt relief, trade reforms, & the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD) — his brainchild.
The G8 (Group of Eight) was the G7 (Group of Seven) until Russia joined. Russia was admitted in 1997, but the group permanently reverted back to the G7 after Russia was expelled in 2014 following— its annexation of Crimea.
NIGERIA HAS SEEN BETTER DAYS! Give this man his flowers. He is not your mate! 🫡💪
What else are you looking for? Fmr. Senator, a two-time governor, and now the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. With all humility, desist from your wickedness, sir!
You keep tasking the same people your government or administration impoverish. How will they pay? Common sense is lacking @officialABAT@NGRPresident@NGRSenate. Is not that citizens whose economy is friendly to them will be able to pay tax? People who can't afford PMS...
The president happens under you, even worse. Your government is proficient with figures on paper but struggles with values. Even the figures are mainly manipulated. Be nice and embrace humanity, Mr President @officialABAT. God has blessed you enough.

He subsequently presented a National Flag to the family in honour of the deceased senior officer’s dedicated service and sacrifice to the nation.
Responding on behalf of the family, Alhaji Dikko Mu’azu Ruma, the Gado da Masun Katsina, expressed appreciation to the CDS and the Armed Forces of Nigeria for the visit and support extended to the family.
“On behalf of the entire family, the good people of Batsari Local Government Area and indeed Katsina State, we sincerely thank the Chief of Defence Staff and the Armed Forces of Nigeria for standing by us, especially during this trying period,” he said.
Alhaji Mu’azu acknowledged that death is an inevitable reality for every soul and prayed for the peaceful repose of the late Major General Abubakar’s soul. He also wished the delegation a safe journey back to their destination.
Earlier, the delegation paid a condolence visit to the Katsina State Government House, where they were received by the Deputy Governor of Katsina State, His Excellency, Mallam Faruk Lawal Jobe, on behalf of the Governor.
During the visit, Major General Abdullahi conveyed the condolences of the Chief of Defence Staff and the Armed Forces of Nigeria to the Governor, the government, and the people of Katsina State over the painful loss of one of the state’s distinguished sons.
In his remarks, the Deputy Governor described the demise of Major General Rabe Abubakar (rtd) as a painful loss not only to Katsina State but also to the nation at large. He noted that the late General’s commitment to national service and the security of the country would remain a source of inspiration to future generations.
@VikyInsights Let him take care of his children and discard the woman finally. If he hasn't bounce back, will you truly come back? Let's be realistic.
Forgive but don't forget.
Spirituality is not Sttupidity.
