Senegalese Government is like "don't worry our turn is Coming, Morrocans will know what Senegalese Prison smell like"

Today they lift you on their shoulders,
tomorrow they sharpen their whispers.
The mouths that chant your name in daylight
are rehearsing curses in the dark.

Be mindful of those you bind with chains of favor,
for even as they dance to your drum,
their hearts ferment with gall,
and their memories still bruise
from the rope you once fastened around their breath.

Power is a candle in restless wind,
it burns bright,
but it burns short.
Wike, your hourglass is already bleeding sand.

When e reach your turn, ignore.

Mercy Johnson is becoming a menace at this rate, harassing every dick and tom with police over verbal outbursts that should be ignored

Not that this will accomplish anything, since you people hit the "off" switch inside your brains once your religion is mentioned, but for the benefit of the roughly 9 teachable people left in Nigerja, here is what is REALLY happening around you:

1. China is winning the economic war with the US, and the US is aware that it can no longer compete industrially with China, which is already a larger economy than the US in PPP terms. The only reason the US economy is still nominally larger is that the US dollar remains wildly overvalued due to its use as the global reserve currency.

2. The rise of BRICS means that the end of the US dollar as global reserve currency is coming. Once that happens, the US economy will implode, because it is built on exporting USD and importing the world's productivity. Without the overvalued USD as an imperial tool for controlling and extracting from the rest of the planet, the US will basically become Brazil with nuclear warheads.

3. The Trump administration knows this, which is why it has gone into full imperial mode, renaming the DoD to "Department of War," and preparing to deploy the US military across Latin America as part of its 'Monroe Doctrine.' The idea is to secure land, resources, and spheres of influence to compete with China and Russia, since it is no longer the unilateral superpower.

4. In this new multipolar world whose birth you are witnessing, there will be 3 or 4 great powers instead of just one, and all of them will compete and jostle for influence and access to resources. That is what you are witnessing playing out in Nepal, Bangladesh, the Sahel, the Middle East, Venezuela, and many other places. Yes, there are local factors, but everything exists in this wider context of a world being reshaped in front of our eyes.

5. During this reshaping of the world, Africa - the only continent with a majority of its states professing 'nonalignment' with any great power - is the biggest prize that is up for grabs. All of tomorrow's technology, which guarantees economic and military supremacy is built on resources found in DR Congo, Northern Nigeria, Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Chad, Sudan and Somalia. (What unique security situation do all these places have in common?)

6.During this reshaping, "international institutions" are debased and made irrelevant. Bibi Netanyahu has an ICC arrest warrant that nobody will honour, and the US government sanctioned the ICC for issuing the warrant, even locking the ICC Chief Prosecutor out of his email and bank accounts. The UN has officially declared Gaza to be a genocide - and nothing happened. And nothing will happen because these "institutions" no longer have of the teeth they once pretended to have.

7. This means that the days of one state cooking up a reason to invade or annex another state - something expressly forbidden since 1945 - are now back. And since Africa has what everybody wants, any great power is now free to deploy a geopolitical meme ("Christian Genocide in Nigeria" and use it to justify invasion to take what it wants. In other words, colonialism is coming back - not IMF/World Bank, suit-wearing, conference-attending, Business-English-speaking, polite neo-colonialism, but open, obvious colonial theft and thuggery. This is not decades away - it is a few years away at the most.

8. Russia considers Europe to be its rightful sphere of influence and trade dominance. Hence it views European access to cheap African resources as a threat. Thus Russia is stepping in to provide military and infrastructure support for African states so that they can start to use their own resources for themselves and leave Europe dependent on Russia. Europe and the US see this as an existential threat, hence their proxy war in Ukraine and their new geopolitical meme ("Christian Genocide in Nigeria" to justify direct military occupation of West Africa.

9. No great power gives a single Bleep about "Nigerian Christian genocide." All you are is a means to an end!

USA 94,96 Olympic, France 98,korea/Japan are the years of REAL SUPER EAGLES.What we have now are Supa Eagus wey sabi how to give fans HBP.

Without the mention of P.O in your narratives, your words can't make sense

jjbest123:
It's getting interesting.

Work with people who won't betray you at the end, because of their pockets and belle. Example: That two faced man that is cashing out with the chibok girls and making noise up and down now with Peter Obi.

How I wish those commenting without thinking will see things from this your view point.
So many looters in Politics, Many Tricksters in Religion homes. Grabbing and brushing themselves. May God Bless Dangote, BUA, Otedola, Adeleke, even Baba Ijebu e t c

Ihengwu:
This man is a good man. Think of how many people he is putting food on their tables. I don't care if its monopoly or not. What of jobless politicians stealing without doing work. Pls leave this man alone, let him not die early.

The Solution to Nigeria problem is "True federalism"... Or just give us Regional Governance period. Some states are dragging the others down, some States won't let the other develop properly by using systemic deprivation to obstruct meaning infrastructural development to those areas. Then, there comes the greed of man. Most Nigeria Political elites are just there to steal while been cheer up by God of Men (Pastors). I I saw a video of Alfars (Muslim cleric) saying they will never vote for meaningful governance if it's coming from not their religion, do you imagine how depraved some people can be?
BAT, please give us Regional Governance and you will have my vote and that of my us.

Emeka nor go gree....! Finally, Kpokpo don catch guy man.

Hello House, has there been any other President that has come to Nigeria for Vacation? Please clear my doubts. The way the Nigerian commoners have accepted this trend still baffles me.

They won't release it to the public because He was actually not a White-Man. Wait a few years after all the modifications, then it will be displayed for all the World to see. Oyibo, who nor fear una....!

GHANA...!

These same Professors, when given national duty has returning Officers for INEC, they engage in corrupt practices to bring in the same people that will enslave them and their Children. Also, is the INEC not a Professor?
Not until the Day when we are all ready to tell ourselves the Truth.

Pastors, Alfa and Politicians are the same. They have changed common interest, manipulate, steal, oppress and subdue the People so they can ride their high horses.

I pity Nigerians who still stand by these people.

People like you is the problem we have in this Country, You can just reason for yourselves. .....

raskymonojendor:
This is one of the guys Tinubu mentored. Just like Fashola and Sanwo Olu.

Whereas some people that became governors. No one knows of who they mentored. Zero leadership skills.

You mind them? ...

Ofunaofu:
The Osun APC behaves like jesters.

President Tinubu has spent more days abroad than in Nigeria, often seeking medical treatment, yet during all that time, the Osun APC has never questioned his whereabouts

Everyday, Obi this-Obi that... If this man is not good no one will be talking of him. We are so use to enduring disasters in governance that it now seem to be the norm. According to report he the less corrupt of them all, ask Senator Orji Kalu. Let's give him a try and see the magic he wants to bring. Abi una nor dey tire for suffer?

You go try Pass Tunubu finance minster... You Sabi manage.

RIP... Your voice was heard.

"Olusegun Obasanjo" owns the highest shares of Premium Steel, meaning he is the owner of the Chinese run company. "some leaders we have".

oz4real83:
All these happened under "Saint Obasanjo" who is now claiming to have the best of Nigeria at heart . Obasanjo had the opportunity to transform Nigeria, both as a military and civilian president but didn't, projects worth hundreds and billions of dollars were sold off for peanuts under Obasanjo, he blames Atiku and Atiku blames him until the sudden "reconciliation" in order to grab power, the foundations of lawlessness, abuse of human rights, disobedience to court orders, corruption were laid by Obasanjo, APC only consolidated these evil foundations laid by Obasanjo, fortunately, Obasanjo and PDP are also suffering with innocent Nigerians

FiftyFifty:
You're a pathologically bigoted lier. How come the same blacks lead them in prayer even in the Haramain? We know who enslaved the world for centuries, who colonized the world for decades, who led the world to both WWI and WWII; we know the religion that have birth to the crusaders, Heraclitus, Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler, Napoleon, Bush, and many others.

Very funny how ignorant and self righteous most of you sound. Islam did worst to Africa (looting, e.g Mali) and to Africans (barbaric slave trade). The Arabs bought and raid slaves from Africa and the first thing they do when they take them to their entrapment is to castrate them.
The Arabs took too many slaves compare to the Americas and Europe combine. What is the word you call the black man till date..." Slave". How inhumane your Quaran has thought you. Wicked hypocrites

Waiting for more... Op, Oya nah.

AnnyChidex:
Can I get sasame seed from you? How do you sell

Are you still interested in getting bulk Sesame seeds... Please let me know I have.

IyaebeTheGreat:
Ortom still bitter, he failed in Benue state but keeps blaming federal government .

We are talking about HUMAN LIVES here.... What's with you people, bringing politics into everything.

If you want to Disgrace our Prof. then let him debate her on this Topic.

ShaqFu:
Nonsense. People like this Daniel Bwala should eat dust. Was in Chimamanda who said that Asiwaju shouldn't be sworn in? Was it Chimamanda who said Asiwaju will be running an unconstitutional government when Asiwaju is sworn in as president of Nigeria?

Asking Prof to debate with Adichie is a very foolish thing to say. Beside, I'm even pretty sure Prof Soyinka will outclass Adichie if she ever decided to debate the great Prof because, what does Adichie even know about Nigeria and Nigerian politics compare to Wole Soyinka.

THERE IS ALWAYS A FOOL AMONG MEN.

DenreleDave:


Thank God he said 2011....... Buhari do him own sha but they are not as evil as obidients...


Obi supporters are the worst set of supporters in the history óf Nigeria..... Reason is why obi will never become the president of Nigeria....

Awesome... !

*STATE OF THE NATION*
*A SELF DECEIVING COUNTRY CALLED NIGERIA !!*

*Twenty-one senators currently receiving pensions from government as ex-governors and deputy governors.*

*The current senators who once served as governors are Ibrahim Gaidem of Yobe, Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau of Kano, Kabiru Gaya of Kano, Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom, Theodore Orji of Abia, Abdullahi Adamu of Nasarawa, Sam Egwu of Ebonyi, Shaaba Lafiagi of Kwara, Joshua Dariye of Plateau Jonah Jang of Plateau, Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko of Sokoto, Ahmed Sani Yarima of Zamfara, Danjuma Goje of Gombe, Bukar Abba Ibrahim of Yobe, Adamu Aliero of Kebbi, George Akume and Gabriel T Suswam of Benue and Isiaka Adeleke of Osun and so on*

*The former deputy governors in the Senate are Ms Biodun Olujimi of Ekiti and Enyinaya Harcourt Abaribe of Abia. Danladi Abubakar Sani served as the acting governor of Taraba state.*

*Many former governors are also in Buhari's Cabinet as Ministers. This includes: Ngige, Fayemi, Amaechi and Fashola (SAN)*

*In Akwa Ibom State, the law provides that ex governors and deputy governors receive pension equivalent to the salaries of the incumbent. The package also includes a new official car and a utility vehicle every four years; one personal aide; a cook, chauffeurs and security guards for the governor at a sum not exceeding N5 million per month and N2.5 million for his deputy governor.*

*In Rivers, the law provides 100 percent of annual basic salaries for the ex-governor and deputy, one residential house for the former governor “anywhere of his choice in Nigeria”; one residential house anywhere in Rivers for the deputy, three cars for the ex-governor every four years and two cars for the deputy every four years.*

*It is alledged that in Lagos, a former governor will get two houses, one in Lagos and another in Abuja, estimated at N500 million in Lagos and N700 million in Abuja. He also receives six new cars to be replaced every three years; a furniture allowance of 300 percent of annual salary to be paid every two years, and a N30 million pension annually for life.*

*This is the reality for all the 21 ex govenors and deputy governors who are currently serving as senators. This same is also true of ex governors who are now serving as Ministers.*

*NOW I ASK:*
*How many years did these guys serve their states as governors and deputy governors?Is it more than 8years? Is that a reason to be entitled to pensions for life?* *Even if they are entitled to pension for life, must it be so outrageous?*

*As if that is not enough: HOW on earth can any public servant with conscience collect salaries and allowances as a senator or minister, and still have the audacity to claim pensions equivalent to the salaries of a serving governor in Nigeria?*

*IT ISN'T ROCKET SCIENCE. *

*Once you are elected a senator or appointed a minister, you must forfeit any pension accruing to you from government at any level until you vacate office. This should also apply to senators collecting military pensions like former Senate President David Mark.*

*Yet these senators are in the Senate that is inviting the current finance minister to discuss the recession of Nigeria's economy. A senator pockets approximately 30 million naira monthly as salary and allowances. Our "honourables" are not interested to make laws that could restructure our country into economically autonomous federating States/Regions to save the country from sectional agitations that is threatening to destroy Nigeria. The sad and hopeless situation is that the rest of Nigerians are busy arguing based on party, ethnic and affiliations while these enemies of state continue to rape us.*

*Do you know that it costs tax payers 290m Naira yearly to maintain each member of our National Assembly in a country where nothing works & 80% of population earn below 300 Naira a day ? A working day earning of a senator is more than a yearly income of a doctor; it's more than the salary of 42 Army generals or 48 professors or 70 commissioners of police or more than twice the pay of the US President or 9 times the salary of US congressmen.*

*It's high time the country had a referendum on those outrageous salaries of Senators, House of Representative members and other political office holders.*

* Copied post.
