THE N5BILLION THAT MARK OKOYE AND CO ALLEGEDLY GUZZLED ON CONFERENCES AND SUMMITS AT THE SEDC OVER THE LAST ONE YEAR, WOULD HAVE COMFORTABLY SET UP THE FOLLOWING:
1. 2 AGRO INDUSTRIAL PARKS OF HYV ORGANICALLY RAISED MORINGA OLIFERA AGROCITY with processing factories to support it in 2 LGAs in the South East ..
2. These two Agrocities set up under the Missions Communities Diaspora Private Public Parrnership Arrangement will create over 1,000 direct jobs, 5,000 indirect jobs and generate annually over N10billion/$7million
But, they chose to blow it on conferences, summits and stakeholders engagements
These people enwero ako, uche na uchu
@NigeriaStories Can we just get people who dont want to loot the 1st second they enter thier office. Money that could change lives. What kind of kakistocracy is this!!
Today, the speaker of @HouseNGR has announced the defection of my good friend, @OKChinda, from @OfficialPDPNig to @OfficialAPCNg.
It is claimed he also now ceases to be #MinorityLeader of the House. They back-dated the letter of notification to 23 April.
Last month, while still the Minority Leader of the House, Chinda was selected to be the candidate of the ruling @OfficialAPCNg for governorship of Rivers State in #NigeriaDecides2027.
I am sure they have lined up their #FullyOwned judges to make this look kosher with a suitable court order. But no amount of #CourtWashing can clean this up. It is #OrganizedCrime.
Period!

Every time you transfer money in Nigeria, someone takes a cut.
Not from your income. Simply from moving your own money.
₦50 here. ₦6.98 there. VAT. Alert fees. Maintenance charges.
In 2025 alone, Nigerians were charged across more than 8 billion transactions.
Government earned about ₦400bn from transfer-related charges. Two banks alone made ₦283.7bn from electronic banking and account fees.
Meanwhile: • Zelle transfers in America are free • Europe capped transaction fees • India subsidises digital payments
In Nigeria, the citizen carries the cost every single time.
This is not a banking problem. It is a policy issue @cenbank
In the latest OsitaInsight, I explain why this keeps happening — and what Nigeria can do differently.

What @osita_chidoka says here is ALL TRUE. Nigerian banks are cheating the Nigerian people blind and @cenbank allows it:
Every time you transfer money in Nigeria, someone takes a cut.
Not from your salary or from your profit. From moving your own money electronically.
₦50 here. ₦6.98 there. VAT on the charge. Alert fee. Maintenance fee.
In 2025 alone, Nigerians were charged across more than 8 billion transactions.
The government earned about ₦400 billion from transfer-related charges. Two banks alone made ₦283.7 billion from electronic banking and account fees.
Meanwhile:
• Zelle transfers in America are free
• Europe capped transaction fees by law
• India subsidises digital payments as public infrastructure
In Nigeria, the ordinary citizen carries the cost every single time.
And it is a policy choice that government can reverse — if enough people understand what is actually happening.
In the latest OsitaInsight, I explain why this is happening and what Nigeria can do differently.

I have zero interest in Nigeria politics. That space is filled with lots of deeply corrupt individuals. It’s not inline with my life mission.
For personal principles, I don’t engage in any form of government contracts and don’t accept gifts from any politician.
I always want to be in the side of truth and press for our society to be better.
My desire is to see South East develop to be the greatest workforce in Africa which should positively influence the development/civilization of Nigeria and the rest of Africa.
