Following the news in Nigeria is really messing me up mentally and putting me in depression. If not for the nature of my work, I wouldn’t even bother keeping up with the news. It’s exhausting and heartbreaking watching things get worse and feeling like there’s so little ordinary people can do about it.

“First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.”
Silence in the face of injustice is dangerous. When you refuse to speak up for others today, you may find nobody left to speak up for you tomorrow.
One of the cruelest things poverty steals from people is the freedom to make mistakes. When you have no safety net, every decision has to work, every risk feels dangerous, and even one wrong move can cost you everything.

Tinubu Seeks Reps’ Approval To Borrow ₦10.8 Trillion in Fresh External Loans Under 2026 Budget
President Bola Tinubu has sought approval for ₦10.8 trillion in external loans under the 2026 Appropriations Act.
Defending the plan, he said, “The key question is not how much we borrow, but what we build, the value we create and the future we leave behind.”
Projects include three superhighways, electricity grid improvements and Lagos port upgrades. He said the Lagos-Calabar Highway could cut transport costs by 15 to 20 per cent and create 250,000 direct and indirect jobs.
“We cannot build a $1 trillion economy with infrastructure designed for an economy a fraction of that size,” he added.
Tinubu cited 4.43 per cent GDP growth in the second quarter of 2026 and inflation falling to 14.63 per cent in September.
He acknowledged that debt servicing took about 65 per cent of government revenue in the first half of the year.
However, NLC President Joe Ajaero questioned further foreign borrowing despite claims of increased revenue after petrol subsidy removal.
Speaking on Channels Television’s The Morning Brief, he asked, “What is the justification for continually borrowing from the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank and other agencies when there is enough money?”
Ajaero also questioned borrowing as crude prices rose above the 2026 budget benchmark of $70 per barrel.
“If the 2026 budget was prepared with crude oil price benchmarked at $70 per barrel and now sells above $100 per barrel due to the US-Iran crisis, should this country still be taking loans?” he asked.
He urged Nigerians to demand accountability, noting that the NLC had no authority to approve or reject government loans.
Tinubu said the plan should be judged by its results: “Securing financing is only the beginning. The real achievement lies in completing projects, delivering value for money, and improving Nigerians’ lives.”
I don't know why everyone is still trying to find out whether heaven and hell exist. Why do we need more evidence? They exist here on this very Earth.
You're facing one in this country😊😊😊😊
