🔥🔥I listened to all of this from start to finish. What you see coming out of that guest on the show is the anger that is seething within many Nigerians at this moment.
He touched on so much but the bottom line is Petroleum and the president doubling as the minister for petroleum. This new dimension in recent times started with Buhari, then Tinubu followed - Presidents doubling as Petroleum Ministers. But why?
Petroleum is Nigeria’s biggest income earner and the economy revolves around it. Under the secret pact for the continuation of colonization which all colonized African countries are signatories to, your natural resources belong to your colonizer. And your colonizer has the Right of First Refusal on all existing and new resources discovered in that colony, like Nigeria. What that means is, British companies for instance will be the ones to control oil drilling and extraction from Nigeria. They will have the best of oil wells and assign the biggest and second biggest and probably even third biggest oil drilling contracts to British companies and then the rest to whoever else they wish to assign them to and eventually leave the crumbs for the host colony. Same British companies will also be the first companies to be contacted or contracted whenever a new resource, like gold is discovered in Nigeria. When they have taken enough of the mining contacts and are fed, the crumbs go to people like my brother, Arthur Eze & other local players.
And when they extract the natural resources, say oil, in the case of Nigeria, the money they make goes almost 100% to England and if you’re lucky as a host colony, you’ll get 4% or max 5% Royalty from the sale of that natural resource they took from your land. It is on record that only two African countries make up to 5% Royalty from such satanic brigandage of the colonials in present day Africa, and I doubt that Nigeria is one of the two. The rest are forced to make do with between 1-3% royalty! Sierra Leone’s First Lady already told you but I know many didn’t understand. Former Gambian President, Yahya Jammeh told you before they kicked him out on account of his refusal to accept this wickedness, but you also didn’t understand.
The distance between first world and third world is nationalization of a nation’s wealth. Kill that agreement today and nationalize Nigeria’s oil wealth and Dubai will loan money from Nigeria. But it won’t happen because the colonials have become increasingly agitated about losing their grip on the natural resources of their African colonies, so what they started doing is imposing their own stooges and placing them in charge of the principal resources they steal from that country. So, while Buhari serves as a Petroleum minister in Nigeria, another African country’s president that probably has, say Gold as the dominant resource is his country, is also made to be the minister in charge of gold mining and export and so on. This is their new tactics and they won’t stop without a fight.
What happens when their stooges sit on the resources they’re stealing is, they have even far more access to the stolen resource money and give almost nothing to the host countries - and this works so well because the people short-sightedly blame the president, calling him “thief” and “greedy.” And most of them are, but it’s all the distraction they need to finish the host country. It’s re-colonization 3.0. It’s all part of that pact for the continuation of colonization. This is why the first thing the Sahel States guys did immediately after Russia helped them regain freedom, was tear to shreds that so called pact.
If we all become aware of where the problem is from, we’ll take our shots right and take our victory lap. Otherwise, we’ll keep having these venting and ranting exercises in futility - and they’ll just laugh and do what they did the last time - pump money into some angry pockets and clear the streets of all descent. R E S I S T responsibly! Resist with KNOWLEDGE!
