@AdewunmiGbeng14 International law, specifically UNCLOS guarantees rights of landlocked countries to negotiate bilateral agreements for sea access which may not be denied. The contrary is a popular Nigeria line by politicians from the South Eastern region on sea access. It is not true

Gyokeres took us to Champions League Final. Scored crucial goal in a dead match to win us crucial matches (e.g., Everton home). Once Havertz came back from injury @m8arteta sent Gyokeres straight to bench who cost us Carabao Cup and FA Cup.

Explain this stubbornness. What does he want to prove?

[Arsenalism @ItsMyHandleBro]

@piersmorgan Yeah, he helped us win premier league. Arteta was looking for second place. Lol

On Shagari, Yar’Adua and Buhari… if we remove sentiments and look at Nigeria’s economic history, we need to understand where we are right now and what we need to avoid.

Bar a miracle, the next Northern Presidency is likely to wipe out every reform being undertaken now which be thrust the country into another socio-political and economic abyss.

Its how the Northern Oligarchs are wired

The few times this country experienced some reprieve with smart policies are when the South ruled

The moment it goes back to the North… Its economic terrorism

The middle class OBJ triggered got wiped off by Yaradua

The Kachalla is out with his discordant tunes

How do u think he’ll fund subsidy? of cos by printing money. Ways and means

He’ll Buhari us again

Economic Terrorists everywhere

Today, I joined family, friends and well-wishers to honour Chief Reuben Fasoranti, CFR, Leader of Afenifere and Asiwaju Yoruba, as he celebrated his 100th birthday.

The centenary lecture, with the theme A Century of Courage and Stewardship of Yorùbá Democratic Legacy, was a fitting tribute to a life defined by service and commitment to our people.

Reaching 100 years is a blessing, but dedicating a lifetime to principled leadership and the democratic values of the Yoruba people is a legacy we must all strive to uphold.

I celebrate Chief Fasoranti and wish him many more years in good health and peace.

Another confirmation that a determined and structural decision is better at all levels. The pain will subside. Leaders have to be able to communicate transparently and empathically to draw support.

Best advert for a restructured subsidy system. A blanket subsidy can be a total negative, unsustainable despite being politically convenient.

President Tinubu meets with Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas(NLNG) board led by its Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Engineer Adeleye Falade.

“We look straight far into the future, and I believe that this country has what it takes; but whatever asset that we have in the ground is nothing unless it’s brought up to service the economy, the people, and realisation of a good return on investment”

[Olamide @Runmila01]

President Tinubu’s strategic structural reforms on Nigerian affairs have certainly made him noticeable & also put him beyond both local & international conspiracies & schadenfreude. As with every project, the intent is that the critical path to result of reforms stays short.

Mr President,

I write this as a supporter of your administration and as a Nigerian who wants you to succeed. But support must never become sycophancy. Sometimes, the greatest service a supporter can render is to tell the President what others around him may be too comfortable—or too frightened—to say.

Mr President, Nigeria needs more mad men in your government.

And before anybody deliberately misunderstands me, let me explain what I mean by mad men.

I mean men and women who are crazy enough to confront a broken system, step on powerful toes, offend entrenched interests and refuse to accept mediocrity simply because mediocrity has become normal.

We need people who wake up every morning obsessed with results.

We need people who are prepared to become unpopular in Abuja if that is the price of becoming useful to Nigeria.

Look at the Central Bank under Olayemi Cardoso. Whatever disagreements anybody may have with individual policies, there is no question that the institution has undergone a serious reset. Discipline and credibility have returned to monetary policymaking.

That is one mad man.

Look at Mallam Nuhu Ribadu. Nigeria still has serious security challenges, and nobody should pretend otherwise. But there is a seriousness, coordination and strategic direction in the national security architecture that deserves recognition. Ribadu is prepared to work, confront problems and take responsibility.

That is another mad man.

Mr President, two mad men are not enough for a country of more than 200 million people.

We need another one in petroleum.

In fact, give us two more.

Nigeria cannot continue to behave like a poor country sitting on the assets of a rich country.

We produce crude oil. We possess enormous reserves. We have decades of petroleum expertise. We have spent fortunes on refineries. Yet for years we became accustomed to exporting crude and importing the products refined from it.

That is economic madness of the wrong kind.

Now we need madness of the right kind.

Mr President, make the rehabilitation and commercially viable operation of the Port Harcourt, Warri and Kaduna refineries a national obsession.

And please, no more excuses.

Nigerians have heard enough explanations about turnaround maintenance, contractors, technical reviews, committees, timelines and billions spent.

We want products coming out of those refineries.

If government cannot operate them efficiently, find the structure that can. Bring in world-class technical partners. Introduce private capital where necessary. Restructure them. Concession them if that produces the best outcome. But whatever model is chosen, the objective must be brutally simple:

MAKE THE REFINERIES WORK.

Dangote has shown what is possible on Nigerian soil. Its refinery was designed for 650,000 barrels per day and has reportedly demonstrated even higher throughput during performance testing.

So let us establish an audacious benchmark.

Mr President, let the three government-owned refining complexes target, at minimum, the equivalent of 50% of Dangote’s nameplate refining capacity—about 325,000 barrels per day of reliable, commercially viable throughput. Then push beyond it.

Nigeria should not merely aspire to satisfy its domestic demand. Our ambition should be much bigger.

We should become a refining powerhouse for Africa and a major exporter of refined petroleum products.

And upstream, the instruction should be equally uncompromising.

Your administration already has a stated ambition of taking Nigeria towards 4 million barrels of oil per day by 2030.

Mr President, find the mad man who will deliver it.

Find somebody who considers 1.5 million barrels unacceptable when the national ambition is 4 million.

@solana_tii @ffaithmartins @biglodu_ @TheMijii all have highly prospective Afro-EDM tracks that could do wonders……

[Olamide @Runmila01]

There is powerful groundswell of Afrobeats - Afrohouse, EDM powered by Yoruba ladies and it’s so counter punching to Amapiano that needs to disappear from our memories. Each day, it’s a new beat & DJs can’t keep up anymore. Ọ̀sun & Ọya ti bínú.

The death of Dr Jason Arday is a blunt reminder to all black professionals in the Western world working as academics, doctors, Tech, and scientists about what we face in order to be in this settings as professionals.
You cannot be in the corporate world as a black man or woman and not say you have not encountered one form of discrimination or the other by people who hate you for being black and confident.
The youngest black professor in the history of Cambridge have been bullied to death.
Don’t ever listen to their nonsense allegations that he was a plagiarist. A civil allegation was turned into a national scandal and platforms like @thetimes turned him into click bait to be ridiculed and humiliated.

Until we practice groupnomics, we will never be able to survive in the west and the world.
RIP Professor Jason.
