SmartPolician: When you see this figure, you will think it's a lot until you convert it to USD. Nigeria is an extremely poor country and she needs creative minds to start creating wealth.
If not, the level of poverty that will befall this country in the coming years will be unprecedented. We are already seeing the signs.
zero8zero: Nigeria President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu had debunked the FAKE NEWS making the rounds as far back as 2020 when some section of the media misquoted his statements on the proposed solutions to help stay afloat the challenges of COVID-19.
Of the nine recommendations, none suggested the printing of the naira.
ariesbull: When Nigerians say “I wan Japa,” it sounds like freedom. But in reality, for many, it has become a new kind of slavery.
Yes, people leave because of hardship—no jobs, insecurity, broken schools, collapsed healthcare. But the story abroad is not always the dream Instagram sells. Too often, it’s depression, loneliness, and frustration. Imagine leaving Nigeria with a degree, only to find yourself cleaning toilets in Germany or working 16-hour shifts in a UK care home. Starting all over again in a foreign land feels less like a fresh start and more like a wound to the soul.
The shame is real. Many migrants cannot tell their families the truth about their struggles. They send home edited pictures with smiles, while in reality they battle anxiety, racism, and the emptiness of being far from home. Years pass, and instead of joy, there’s regret—“Have I wasted my life?”
This is why I call Japa neo-slavery. Not with chains, but with papers, bills, and endless hustling. In the old slave trade, Africans were forced out to build the West. Today, we leave willingly, pouring our youth, skills, and energy into foreign economies while Africa is drained of her best minds.
Of course, not every story is bleak. Some succeed, some send money back, some create opportunities. But as a people, we must ask: are we truly free if our brightest sons and daughters are stuck in cycles of shame, depression, and survival in lands that will never fully accept them?
Real liberation will not come from escape. It will come from rebuilding at home, so that leaving is a choice—not a desperate run into another form of bondage.
I recently spent a month over there
I was very much eager to return home despite the fact that it was like a vacation The way they look at you, talk and act is not commendable ..

givedemwotowoto: This is a rejoinder to Yakubu Dogara, who was recently appointed as Chairman of the Board of the newly established National Credit Guarantee Company by the Tinubu government.
Has Dogara forgotten that the man he now works for advised Buhari to print more money, and Buhari did exactly that? Let's refresh everyone's memory in case we have forgotten.
Shagreenn: The man you are seeing in this video is Ngozi Ogbu, a politician in imo state who was abducted fews days ago by the separatists. Residents of Imo State are still in shock after the abduction of this former member of the Imo State House of Assembly,who represented Okigwe Constituency. The incident occurred on Sunday, September 7, 2025, in Onuimo Local Government Area, when armed men believed to be separatist agitators intercepted Ogbu’s vehicle and whisked him away at gunpoint.
Now, a chilling video surfaced online showing the former lawmaker in captivity. In the footage, heavily armed men identified as members of the so-called Liberation Army issued threats, demanding that security operatives deployed around the “White House” in Okigwe should be withdrawn or they will kill the politician and others under their custody. Authorities in Imo have since launched a full-scale rescue operation, deploying tactical units, intelligence officers, and local security outfits to track down the kidnappers and secure Ogbu’s release. The police spokesperson in the state confirmed the abduction but urged residents to remain calm, assuring that every effort is being made to bring him back alive.
The state government has also condemned the abduction, calling it a direct attack on democracy and peace in Imo. They warned that criminal gangs hiding under the guise of agitation will be crushed. For now, tension remains high in Okigwe and surrounding communities, as the people anxiously await word on Ogbu’s safety. The police have not yet confirmed any breakthrough in the rescue mission, but security patrols have been intensified, and surveillance is ongoing. This abduction adds to the growing wave of insecurity in the South-East, where high-profile kidnappings, attacks on security agents, and violent clashes have become more frequent.
As investigations continue, residents hope that Ngozi Ogbu’s ordeal will end soon, and that justice will be served against those responsible. In the video below, the Politician was seen begging all to do the needful to save his life.
