ACP ALIYU SHABA is the Area Commander of Effurun Area Command, the officer incharge of Usman Nuhu and his gang that Extrajudicially killed Oghenemine.
Watch out for a Conspiracy by some stakeholders in my State to cover up this crime. Watch out.
Till now, ONLY ONE officer is in custody? What happened to others? Including the police officer that assisted Usman Nuhu to fix his AK-47 magazine?
TILL ALL THE OFFICERS ARE FISHED OUT, I PERSONALLY WON'T STOP.
DEMAND FOR THEIR PROSECUTION! #EndPoliceBrutality #ExtraJudicialKillings #alwaysfilmthepolice

Mr. David Hundeyin: While I understand your position here, you are entirely too harsh on the poor masses in Nigeria in whose name you are supposedly fighting for.
Yes, it is undeniably true that many Nigerians do not see the bigger picture.
They do not see how foreign corporations are funding the insecurity currently ravaging the North, how the IMF and World Bank are basically boardroom terror organizations destroying the economy of the Global South, or how the Nigerian government only serves the vile interests of a select few elites and their puppet masters in Western capitals.
All of this is true, but what is equally true is this: it is not this poor majority that will change this country.
This may seem counterintuitive, as the poor are the ones feeling the crushing weight of a dwindling economy, hyperinflation, and an epileptic power grid.
But as Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels outlined in lovely book "The Communist Manifesto", a true change in government can only happen when the classes of society hold hands and unite under a common umbrella.
The poor and uneducated form the overwhelming majority of society and obviously possess the brute muscle to pressure the system.
However, they cannot articulate a well-structured plan, they cannot write manifestos, and they cannot understand the complex logistics required to sustain a massive protest.
They lack the financial war chest to fund a prolonged struggle, the legal expertise to bail out captured comrades, the media expertise to combat vicious state propaganda, and the strategic foresight to negotiate terms when the ruling class is finally brought to its knees.
The Hollywood theater of poor people carrying pitchforks to overthrow their government is pure, delusional fantasy.
An oppressive regime will always have a police force and a military that are heavily armed, well-trained, and eager to shoot live ammunition at protesters.
Drawing again from the works of Marx and Engels and their studies on class struggle, the fundamental catalyst that brings to light any true revolutionary movement must start with the Middle Class (the Bourgeoisie/Intelligentsia).
The middle class is educated; they possess the knowledge to decode complex geopolitics and translate it into simpler terms for the average farmer to understand, just as Thomas Sankara did in Burkina Faso.
The middle class has the resources and the time on their hands to properly coordinate protests and build formidable intelligence networks.
They can outsource the technology to bypass government censorship, they have the international connections to expose human rights abuses to the global stage, and they possess the ideological backbone required to turn disorganized public anger into a lethal, targeted political weapon.
The most famous revolutionary movements in history like the French Revolution, the Russian Revolution, and the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran, were all ruthlessly and carefully planned and organized by educated, wealthy, middle-class citizens. Even Fidel Castro of Cuba came from a wealthy family, and his father owned a robust sugar business.
Yet, even when the lower and middle classes unite, the upper class and the military still hold all the cards.
Even the celebrated 1979 Iranian Revolution was only successful because factions within the military and the government decided to commit mutiny and flat-out refused to protect the Shah.
If impoverished Nigerians were to relinquish their daily survival hustle and storm the streets en masse to protest against the government, what do you think will happen? Just like ENDSARS, the state will wait for the cover of night, turn off the lights, and gun down unarmed protesters in cold blood.
Then, their puppet masters in the Global North will instantly provide them with diplomatic cover, and the rest of humanity will simply move on.
Therefore, the struggling masses do not need to understand your complex geopolitics for a revolution to happen. If the comfortable, educated elite(who claim to know it all) do not get off their high horses and join forces to mobilize the streets, absolutely nothing will change.
A revolution does not happen in a vacuum; it requires a spark forged by intellectuals, fueled by the fury of the poor, and executed with ruthless, unwavering precision. Until the educated middle class is willing to sacrifice its comfort, weaponize its privileges, and bleed alongside the common man they so eagerly criticize, you're basically tweeting into oblivion.
While we were distracted, this happened:
On February 25th 2026, Hon. Alex Mascot, a key member of the Aids and Loans Committee confronted Wale Edun, over the disappearance of capital project funds, despite trillions of naira in loans and record-breaking revenues.
It began as a routine budget defence but escalated into a high stakes interrogation when Hon. Mascot revealed a disturbing pattern:
- N1.15 trillion had been raised and specifically approved by the National Assembly to fund 30% of the 2025 capital budget.
- Multiple loans had been secured, including: $1.2 billion for digital infrastructure, $500 million for economic stimulus, $500 million for MSMEs, $500 million from the AFDB for economic governance and energy transition, and a recent executive request for $21 million, 15 billion Yen, and 4 billion Euros.
He queried why despite this avalanche of borrowed money and strong revenue performance by agencies like FIRS, Customs, and others, capital projects across Nigeria remain at zero disbursement. "With all these funds put together, I want you to enlighten us on why the 2024 budget is yet to be fully implemented, and why the 2025 budget has only been funded 34%, most of which is recurrent expenditure?"
He asked the minister to enlighten Nigerians on why the capital projects still remain at zero.
Minister Wale Edun shifted responsibility to the Minister of State for Finance, Doris Uzoka-Anite, claiming she handled disbursements.
The infuriated committee members then asked; "If the substantive Minister of Finance cannot account for ₦1.15 trillion approved for capital projects, who can?"
Some lawmakers called for the ministers to resign, but the committee had no choice but to adjourn the hearing to Thursday, February 26th, summoning the Minister of State to provide the clarity the nation deserves.
After the committee meeting, Hon. Mascot spoke to the press and said, “When capital projects funding are at zero, development stops. When development stops, Nigerians suffer”.
On Thursday, hearing resumed, then the Minister of State for Finance, Doris Uzoka-Anite, was summoned to account for the missing ₦1.15 trillion. It was confirmed that ₦1.15 trillion was indeed approved for capital projects. However, disbursement protocols require multiple sign-offs, and that certain "pre-disbursement conditions" had not been met by some ministries.
She argued that while the funds exist, they cannot be released until Project documentation is complete
The committee members, armed with the Health Minister's earlier testimony that he received only ₦38 million of his ₦286 billion allocation, then asked, "if protocols were the issue, why were some ministries given the runaround while others weren't?"
Mascot rose again and asked: “Mr. Chairman, can the minister tell this committee which specific ministry met all conditions and still did not receive funding? If none existed, why was ₦1.15 trillion approved when the government knew conditions weren't met?"
The minister could not provide a single example. Mascot then said:
"· If capital funds were approved, where are they?
· If they were misappropriated, who is responsible?
· If this is a crime, who will be held accountable?"
Mascot stated that if funds were approved but never reached their destination, that is not poor administration. That is a crime.
On February 27th 2026, Hon. Mascot was invited to Aso Rock by President Tinubu for a close door meeting.
After the meeting with the president, Hon. Ikwechegh announced his resignation from his party APGA, announcing his intention to join the APC.
This is a classic move by Tinubu who always buys off his critics and sadly, Hon. Alex Mascot Ikwechegh has become his latest victim.
Hon. Alex Mascot Ikwechegh will soon begin to sing “on your mandate” and he will never never again demand for accountability. It will be; see no evil, speak no evil.
All these happened while we were shouting Mirabel, Simi, VDM and Mitchy.
Good PM.
@flames_collins If we were even normal in this country, abduction of one person would have the same weight as the abduction any number of people. The govt is clearly comfortable with abductions. It's not serious if it's "only" 20 people.
Post match, there must be reviews to ensure that reckless decisions to award soft penalties like the one awarded Tunisia, are not allowed to happen again. What’s the actual essence of VAR? #NIGTUN#AFCON2025
