This shook me man. Does the West really want prosperity and development for Africa????

[David Hundeyin @DavidHundeyin]

I debated long and hard whether to do this publicly, but I think a message needs to be sent to a group of external interests working in tandem with the internal interests described in the quoted tweet to counteract the interests of half a billion West Africans. A message that at whatever level we exist, we take our destiny seriously and we are not to be trifled with.

Last week, I received an N800,000 offer from an international NGO called Dialogue Earth (formerly known as China Dialogue Trust) to write an article essentially saying that Dangote Refinery is terrible for the environment because something something "Environmental Concerns," something something "Climate Change," something something "Energy Transition Policy," something something "COP 28."

The (unstated but clearly implied) thrust of the brief was for a prominent local voice to put their name on an article that is an argument or a premise for the the Nigerian government to kill the refinery based on its "energy transition commitments" and "environmental policy." This conclusion wasn't immediately apparent when they reached out to me, but I suspected where it was heading, and I quickly accepted the offer so that I could see the brief and obtain hard evidence. I've attached screenshots from the brief below.

Basically, this London-based NGO is headed by Sam Geall, an Oxford professor and is funded by several American intelligence fronts such as Ford Foundation and ClimateWorks (which is blacklisted in India for funding organisations working against India's national interest). For whatever reason, it is now quietly mobilising a resistance campaign against what it describes as "Nigeria's first refinery." Apparently, the status quo of Africa's largest oil producer having no functioning oil refinery to beneficiate its own oil was not a problem for Dialogue Earth and the American CIA fronts who fund it.

The human poverty caused by exporting this raw material and importing refined fuel was not bad for the environment. Also, the fact of European refiners regularly blending West African fuel cargoes with toxic waste and sulphur content 200 times the European legal limit (leading to asthma, bronchitis and eye infections in West Africa) was also not bad for the environment. But Nigeria having a refinery that will wean West Africa off import dependency on those European refiners (and allow West Africa control the sulphur content of its own fuels) is where Dialogue Earth and its funders draw the line. That one is bad for the environment, and David Hundeyin should write an article calling for the refinery to be shut down or limited.

I'm putting this out there publicly so that nobody will henceforth use the term "conspiracy theory" when it is pointed out for the umpteenth time, that there are American and European state and private interests that are heavily invested in keeping Africa exactly as poor as it is, and that they regularly push levers most of us do not even know exist, to make sure that this status quo is protected. These people believe that Africans should not exist or have nice things in this world. Apparently, the sole purpose of our existence is to enhance their experience of the planet and all that it has to offer.

It is because of them that I have to make a public spectacle out of this, even though I know that doing this is probably going to cost someone their job. The message needs to be passed that as poor as we are, you cannot convince us to campaign for the elongation of our own poverty by commissioning $500 hack jobs in the hope that we will be greedy enough to only see the money and ignore the bigger picture of what we can clearly see you trying to do.

I will reiterate something I have said multiple times - I am not a believer in the religious faith called Climate Change/Saving The Environment. I care exactly as much about the environment as do the rich white men who destroyed it to begin with. I firmly believe that if what it takes for Africa to industrialise is for it to burn so much fossil fuel that snow stops falling in Wisconsin and it starts raining concentrated sulphuric acid in Doncaster, it is not too big a price for Europe and North America to pay - it is certainly not bigger than the price Africa had to pay for Europe and North America to develop.

It is and will continue to be 100% OUR prerogative to determine what to do with our hydrocarbons. It is not the rich white men hiding behind these "Climate Advocacy NGOs" who will tell us what to do with our energy reserves, and by what means we are allowed to escape the poverty that they engineered for us.

I might not be a fan of Aliko Dangote or his monopolistic business practices - as is well known - but I'm also smart enough to know when rich white men in DC, Houston, Rotterdam and London and trying to use me as a marionette in their 400 year-old coloniser games. If you are reading this and you are one of the rich white men whose economic interests are threatened by Nigeria refining its own oil, you should come out and fight Aliko Dangote by yourself.

Or at least go find a much stupider African to do your dirty job - there's plenty of those.

It will never be me.

Things cannot get better in 1 year. Says the govt that made things exponentially worse in 1 year.

Quick to destroy, slow to fix.

A litre of stolen Nigerian fuel that was blended in Malta is being sold to Nigerians at the price of N850.

Keep looking for reasons to protest. You hear

[DEMAGOGUE PhD.💘senior advocat @von_Bismack]

1. Steals crude from Nigeria.

2. Exports and Blends it in Malta

3. Imports same crude to Nigeria

4. Pays Subsidy to his company.

5. Sells same crude at exorbitant rate to citizens even with the subsidy.

The chronicle of your Presidents Untameable greed and treachery.

@AnonXNG What the actual f*ck!!??? 🤯

[Anonymous NG @AnonXNG]

When I saw the Malta 🇲🇹 NNPC comment by Dangote, I suspected there was more to it. Our group decided to investigate further.

Our discovery was deeply shocking.

As an expat in Kenya, it took other nationalities three months to get their work permit. It used to take me with my Nigerian passport almost 1 year the first time and 5-6 months subsequently.

On three different occasions, my colleagues and I applied for visa to Egypt for the same official trip, same duration of stay, same documentation. They would get their visas in 7-10 days max. I never got a visa. I mean my application would be there the trip would come and end and they still won’t have touched it.

When we applied for our first Schengen visa, I was given one month single entry. My non Nigerian colleagues, one year multiple entry.

Only I had to apply first for a visa to Ethiopia and plan at least a month ahead and have all sorts of official invitations from the local office, so I can come work with and for the portfolio I was supposed to be managing in Ethiopia.

I stopped traveling on non official trips because I no get energy to explain anything to anybody. These emergency patriots need to relax.

Without any form of consultation or leaning into popular demand, that’s how a national anthem that stood for over 50 years was expunged.

Nigerians, stop playing games with your leadership choices.
