The older I get, the more I understand why people disappear into little towns, buy an old house, grow tomatoes, bake bread, and mind their own damn business..
🇮🇶 Iraq wasn’t about WMDs.
It was about oil.
🇱🇾 Libya wasn’t about democracy.
It was about oil.
🇸🇾 Syria wasn’t simply about chemical weapons.
It was about power, pipelines and oil.
🇻🇪 Venezuela wasn’t really about drugs.
It’s about the world’s largest oil reserves.
🇮🇷 Iran isn’t simply about nuclear weapons.
It’s about oil, strategic power and Israel.
🇿🇦 South Africa isn't about White genocide, it's about diamonds and the case against Israel at the ICC.
🇳🇬 Nigeria isn't about Christians, it's about oil.
🇨🇩 Congo isn’t about peace — it’s about cobalt, copper, gold and other strategic minerals.
🇱🇾 🇮🇶 🇻🇪 🇮🇷 The pattern is clear: whenever strategic resources are involved, suddenly “democracy,” “security,” “terrorism” and “international law” become very important.
All the militant groups that once claimed to be fighting for the development of the Niger Delta are now sitting quietly at the table, enjoying billions in government contracts.
Has the Niger Delta been developed? NO.
The struggle was ultimately about personal interests, not development.
Me cuesta mucho la existencia de las Filipinas. Son chinos con nombre en español que hablan en inglés y viven en una dimensión paralela de América Latina en el medio de Asia.

What then is left of the Nation NIGERIA to serve her 250 million population? NOTHING!
These are the exact same people with history of killing your kings and enslaving your people. The exact same people who invaded, pillaged, raped and looted your resources and artifacts still sitting in their museum till date.

I can’t understand how a country can place your country under a visa ban, while you go ahead and sign an agreement with them for them to plunder your mineral resources.
I hate Nigeria so much, I really do, I hate its leaders more.
There is an abundance of oil.
There is an abundance of coal.
There is an abundance of gas.
There is an abundance of food.
There is an abundance of water.
Scarcity is being fabricated by psychopaths.
Nigeria needs a ruthless dictator who would cling to power for the next 20 years for a complete overhaul of the nation. Build it brick by brick, reengineer even human beings and their thinking. There’s just too much work to do.
Only a revolution will fix this.
A president that leads for 4 or 8 years and then bounces will only do patch patch job.
That's because the cabals in charge of the minining industry alongside their puppet masters can hibernate for a few years if the heat gets too much, and simple resurface after the president is gone.
You need a total upheaval of Nigerian society to produce the institutions and collective behavior that makes this tragedy/travesty unthinkable.
The armed forces would need to be stripped and rebuilt on a new doctrine.
The institutions that control the civil service and legislature completely overhauled and oriented toward the ruthless advancement of collective Nigerian interest.
... And so forth.
A president cannot fix this.
Unless they go the way of Putin and simply refuse to leave to give their reform time to harden into institutional and societal memory.
