The 25th day of June was a day in the history of Nigeria,  the long awaited scenario finally came in the media,  World Poverty Clock report says extend poverty in Nigeria is growing by six people every minute, the highest number in the world, with a population of just about 200million people,  a higher percentage of poor people live in the West African country(Nigeria), one cannot shy away the fact that an average family in Nigeria live under 5 dollars in a day. The inability to afford the basic needs of the family,  payment of school fees and feeding the family is  a huge task in the country, the ability to enjoy good welfare in the country is selective,  People in government,  People who know them,  people who know people live their extravagant life even in the presence of poverty reign.  The anticorruption crusade is truly yielding some positive result with the return of stolen funds to the cofer of the federal government, but the money being returned does not really reflect on the well being of the people in the country,  of recent the crusade suffered some setback with the inability of the EFCC to convict people percieved to have participate in the National cake eating.


       The 322million dollars Abacha loot which president Muhammadu Buhari claimed to be a saint was returned to the country from different sources outside the country,  I will just thank God we still have a figure to concentrate on and the chances of Malami to garner a wealth through his home based lawyers was made public and we all know after the Buhari regime,  malami can acquire himself a Ferrari GT spot. One must commend the ability to recover such a huge amount. Over the years there have been series of recovery of the money which particularly no one really know the amount it could be.


   


      The deadly attacks being carried out by the fulani herdsmen who are allegedly the president kinsmen have done more damage to the integrity of an ex- general president and considerably reduced the tsunami his name can cause in 2019, Different states such has Benue,  Taraba,  Plateau and part of Kaduna have suffered   from the negligence of Mr. President,  one can recall that in 2015, the APC pulled a considerable number of votes in those states,  ranging from Benue to Taraba state. The perceived attacks on Christian religion by the fulani herdsmen have pulled a considerable number of voters away from the 15million he had in 2015. The loss of grip in the party structure in Almost all APC controlled state such as Kano,  Kaduna, Jigawa,  Ondo,  Sokoto,  IMO and others have also succeeded in reducing the popularity of Mr.  President. The recent defections of party bigwigs such as Atiku, Kwankwaso looming defection, Tambuwal unstable political movements and the loss of leadership in the National Assembly.


      We can't shy away that the president need a magic to win in 2019. And this magic will only work when big money is involved and with all indications the Abacha returned loot will be the sacrificial lamb,  the federal government in June declared that it will share Te Abacha loot among the poor and vulnerable Nigerian. If forms were to be released to people, 80% of Nigerians will register to be a poor citizen. We all need money and we all think this is the national cake,  we should not think we are in the same level with the Yusuf, the Zara whose only job is to sit down in Aso rock and enjoy several undue allocations,  the vulnerable Nigerians who don't use bank accounts. From the point of view,  one would think the government who has a professor as its no.  2 head should think of a more dissolved way to spread the Abacha loot to eve Etty Nigerians,  Provision of health care facilities in every state of the federation would have been a more better way,  creation of premium companies in every state would still be a better way.


     Finally,  the president need to campaign legally and he has $322million to spend for 2019,  his opponent in 2019 should be ready to match the initial campaign fund of $322million if not more than that.
