ROTOMI AMACHI: “Let’s us look at the economic benefits. In the course of doing the visibility study of this project, I discovered that there are so many natural resources on that track. There is iron ore all over the North-East, there is Coal between Benue and Enugu."

ROTIMI AMACHI lied above when he said, "In the course of doing the visibility study of this project, I discovered that there are so many natural resources on that track."

Mr. Amachi did not do any visibility study when he took over transportation ministry, according to media and internal reports.

A day after Mr. Amachi was named minister and arrived at ministry of transportation, he announced that his agency will continue with light rail policy left over by Goodluck Jonathan administration.

Mr. Amachi is not a policy guy and doesn't know policy, period. He decided to continue light rail policy for two reasons. First, contracts from light rail projects will offer him a better chance to steal money and hide it overseas. And second, he simply lacked ideas to do something else as transportation minister.

So, keep your eyes open on Amachi because lying is part of the reasons he got transportation ministry job.

“Senator Ali Ndumene: For the southeast, let me say for example, you want to be the head of this house and you are calling for the division of the house, will it work? I think the southeast needs to think about it. That is what is creating the rumor for the northerners to even say they want to be the president again. If you want to be president of Nigeria, you must believe in the unity of Nigeria. I support the candidate to come anywhere from the south.”

Good talk by Senator Ali Ndumene. And I think his remark above is right on the money. Ibos cannot claim Biafra as their country and at the same time, want to produce the presidency of Nigeria. It is like trying to have it both ways---that to me will not work.

In 1983 Major General Mohammedu Buhari carried out a successful military coup against a sitting civilian president---Shehu Shagari because he feared, then vice President Alex Ekwueme—an Ibo man was going to become the president.

I think Senator Ali Ndumene remembered this part of history—and that is why his speech above touched specifically on Southeast. And I think APC will be defeated if someone from Southeast is picked as the party flag bearer in 2023.

Oh, and by the way, did you know Bola Tinubu is about to announce his presidential bid for 2023? Mr. Tinubu is almost 100 years old and want to be president? Don’t take this lightly, because part of Bola Tinubu fear is Ibo candidacy in APC will end party chance of winning in 2023. Based on my reporting and other media reports, this concern is having a lot of ears among APC top officials.

Iyabo Ojo : "She said: “I know a lot of ladies who have been through what I have been through and I feel it is time for me to talk to them and make them understand that it is okay to talk about it"


Given the kind of country Nigeria is, I believe Iyabo Ojo claim of being raped multiple times.

Women in Nigeria are treated as second class citizen. Men see women as objects---something to play with. Jobs meant for women worldwide go to men in Nigeria. Go to banks in Nigeria, all you see is men working. In western and European countries, all you see is women doing bank work. That helps women gain confidence and independence to share what is going on inside them.

Why did Iyabo Ojo not report these criminals to police? I bet you she was afraid not taken seriously. And she might have been afraid of her life.

Hello Iyabo Ojo. I write to say that I believe you. Like you have noted, thousands of Nigerians women are getting raped every day. In my view, sharing your experience here will help pwomen like you to come forward and talk about what they have encountered as well. That will ease their mental health as well.

So, thank you again for sharing your experience. It is long overdue for African women to speak out in public.

Mr. Tinubu: "Based on these strategic observations, I recommend the federal government convene a meeting of state governors, senior security officials, herder and farmer representatives, along with traditional rulers and religious leaders. The purpose of this meeting would be to hammer out a set of working principles to resolve the crisis."

Terrible recommendation on the idea about resolving problem caused by herdsmen from Mr. Bola Tinubu . His recommendation if allowed will only exacerbate the problems instead of solving them.

The land use law chapter 202 [ law of the federal republic of Nigeria 1990] gives every state governor in Nigeria the sole authority to regulate land use .

Mr. Tinubu should read that before making any recommendation. All 36 states governors should read that as well. And more importantly, president Buhari should read it too

Only state governor has the sole authority to allow herdsmen into their states, not the president of Nigeria.

If land use law is followed as stated, herdsmen issues can be resolved without violence or loss of lives.

I think Mr. Tinubu fitness to be president of Nigeria has been exposed by above recommendation. And I hope Mr. Tinubu will abandon his intention to run for the presidency of Nigeria.

"Speaking with Saturday Vanguard, the traditional ruler of Asa village, the Adele of Asa, Chief Matthew Akande Olukoku and his counterpart in Iseluland, the Eselu of Iseluland, Oba Ebenezer Akinyemi confirmed that many residents of the village and other adjourning villages had relocated to Egelu, Owode, Iganna, Gbokoto and Pobe, all in Benin "


Impeach Ogun state governor!
Land use act, chapter 202 [ laws of the federal republic of Nigeria 1990] gives the state governor the sole authority to control all land in their states.

Safety and security is the number one job of a state governor.

So, if Ogun state governor cannot use the law granted to him in the constitution of Nigeria to protect its citizens, he should be impeached for dereliction of duty.

Ogun state governor should stop shifting the blame to herdsmen. Herdsmen weren't elected, the governor did.

"Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says equity, justice and fairness for all segments of society are imperative in the pursuit of unity in the county."

Hypocrite at best!
Last month, president Buhari appointed 13 northern Nigerian muslims as judges without a single Christian. In Osinbajo office, the entire media staff is made up of Yoruba tribe only.

Worth to note that, Buhari and Osinbajo offices are fully funded from crude oil Money from South South states .

It speaks to their characters not mine.

Where are equity, justice and fairness that vice president Osinbajo is talking about. Saying one thing and doing opposite is not equity, justice and fairness.

So, vice president Osinbajo, please just stop being hypocritical!

"A statement issued by the state Commissioner, Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, shows that [b]42 female students, 130 male students and eight staff were rescued by the troops."

Nigeria has descended into anarchy . President Buhari rode into the office of the presidency on the ground that he was a Muslim and from northern Nigeria, according to statements from western and European governments which supported Buhari over Goodluck Jonathan.

Today evidence has shown that muslims don't want Buhari. Since Buhari became president, 10,000 Nigerians had died and 5 millions driven out their homes by muslims terroir, according to reports from Nigeria and western media .

Supports for Buhari in Nigeria have backfired and crumbling right in front of our eyes.

What's more?
I think Nigerians are waiting to see whether Buhari will resign. President Buhari resignation is the only way Nigeria can stamp out the on going violence in Nigeria.

Will Buhari listen?

"The British Government has resolved to return to Nigeria £4.2million being part of the funds so far recovered from friends and family members of former Delta Governor, James Ibori."

Good government in UK, not Nigeria!

But what about funds looted by Rotimi Amachi and Godwin Akpabio? When will Nigerian government force European and western governments to return funds looted by these two ex- governors.

President Buhari won 2015 and 2019 elections on promise to end corruption in Nigeria. Has that promise been realized?

The answer is no. That is because Buhari himself is corrupt.

As a result, I am calling for break up of Nigeria. There will be no progress in this enterprise called Nigeria.

None!

Mahmood Yakubu: "The 2023 General Election must be different formal previous elections in terms of our preparations and readiness”

Mahmood Yakubu is a northern Nigerian Muslim who will chair 2023 general elections----and that means northern Nigerian candidate will win.

President Buhari is an identity politics expert.

Last week, the national president of Nigeria pentiscoastal church, Dr. Felix Omobude accused president Buhari of appointing 13 northern Nigerian muslims as judges without a single Christian.

It just tells you everything you want to know about Buhari. He will hire and place people in position to deliver victory to the north.

It has been planned already!

"Restoring Nigeria lost glory "-----'---- is a winning strategy for PDP in 2023 . Under president Buhari, Nigeria has lost all its decency. Unlike 8 years ago, Nigeria is unsafe today. Murder rates are through the roof. Nigeria is more divided today unlike any time in the country history.

I think PDP is the only party that can bring back peace and stability. But it has to find a good messenger to fit in with this narrative

" The operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, have arrested a former minister of state for power, Mohammed Wakil, at his residence in Abuja."

Just laugh!
It is a publicity stunt. Efcc has never convicted a Anybody since its inception about 15 years ago. Many people working for efcc are thieves, according to multiple reports.

This arrest is another example of why efcc should be banned.

"In the meantime, one of the APC presidential hopeful, the Minister for Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has begun his presidential campaign consultations in earnest."


Rotimi Amachi has begun his presidential consultation----that to me is a waste of effort and time because he will never be president or vice president.

He [ Amachi] is a thief. As governor,
he stole Rivers state money in the amount of $757 millions and put it Bancorp account . An American journalist named Christine Amanpour discovered that Money before it was returned to Rivers state government .

When Rotimi Amachi was asked about the Money, he said the money was deposited by error.

Furthermore, as a minister of transportation, Amachi engaged in illegal rails distribution in Nigeria. He signs contracts to have rails built in certain parts of Nigeria, not all parts of Nigeria.
That is discrimination.

States that contribute to national treasury are left out from benefiting from any kind of transportation business under Amachi leadership.

Is that the kind of person any person would consider for the highest office in Nigeria?


I don't think so

"Tahir said: “All the stakeholders and members of AUFCDN in our nationwide strike are glad we achieved what we wanted to achieve. Since the Governor of Kogi state, Yahaya Bello begged us on behalf of the Federal Government of Nigeria, we agreed to call off the nationwide strike today."

Striking workers are glad to achieve what they wanted---- signals another proof president Buhari is in for northern Nigerian muslims.

Where did president Buhari get N475 billions Money to pay off northern Nigerian muslims?

We know northern Nigerian governments pay no money to National treasury. The N475 billions these striking workers are getting is Money from South South crude oil sales.

And quest what?
The citizens from oil producing states are hungry and homeless.

Is this fair?

" A source told DAILY POST that the passengers in the three cars were kidnapped and conveyed to an unknown location and the vehicles were left by the road side."

Three cars were kidnapped and coveyed to unknown location---speak directly to poor leadership president Buhari has offered to Nigerian people

He [president Buhari] hired northern Nigerian muslims who don't have good quality education to fill high places in Nigerian government. Definitely, this is the result of bad hiring practices .

I am so happy to witness punishment meted on president Buhari bigotry behavior. It is not over. The next phase is Nigeria is going to be broken up into different countries like Sudan, Somalia, Beirut and Yemen.

So guys, be ready for your new country. As far as I am concerned, that enterprise called Nigeria is finished.

God has finally answered the prayers of those who wanted Nigeria come to an end.

"According to figures collated from several reports, at least 768 students have been abducted by bandits within the space of 78 days. The breakdown of the figure include 344 schoolchildren of Government Science Secondary School, Kankara, Katisna on December 11, 2020; 80 pupils of Islamiyya School, Mahuta, Katsina on December 20, 2020; 27 boys at GSS College, Kangara, Niger State on February 17, 2021; and 317 schoolgirls of Government Girls Secondary School, Jangebe, Zamfara State, last Thursday who are still in captivity."

Amazing data, but good first step!

Although the closures of these schools came late, nevertheless, I thank God someone has finally decided to do something to save these children lives.

President Buhari should set aside his passion for muslims religion and appoint a southern Christian scholar to run northern Nigerian schools. It is about transparency and reassuring to parents that their children are in safe places.

That is just my little advice to president Buhari at this time.


"

" A human rights lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN), says it is no crime for any citizen to call for President Muhammadu Buhari’s resignation."

True!

I think president Buhari poor job performance is why people are calling for his resignation

When OBJ was president of Nigeria from 1999 to 2007 many Nigerians called for his resignation almost every day, and Obasanjo never got upset or ordered his security details to arrest his critics. Same thing happened when Goodluck Jonathan was the president.

But the problem with president Buhari is his lack of understanding about how democracy works. His highest education is grade 5 or 6----that is if he made that far. That called into question president Buhari leadership skills.

Calling for poor performing president like president Buhari to resign is not a crime. It is an attempt to get our leaders to get good job done.

So, Nigerians lawmakers should amend the constitution to prevent illiterate citizens from ever holding office of the president to save loss of lives and false imprisonment.

"The Minister of Transportation, @ChibuikeAmaechi disclosed this during inspection tour to all the stations from Mobolaji Johnson Station at Ebuta Metta to Ibadan station over the weekend."

Building rails in states that don't contribute anything to national treasury is another example of how ethnic minded Buhari government is. And you add Rotimi Amachi leadership to the mix, Nigeria is finished.

" OBY :Yesterday I woke to the news of the abduction of over 300 school girls from GSSS Zamfara and the deepest pain hit me into a clamp-up. "

OBY just woke up to know who Buhari is--- shows willingness to deceive Nigerians again. Buhari has not changed. In 2015 when he [Buhari] was running for president and Goodluck Jonathan was dismantling boko haran, Buhari said to Jonathan " stop killing the muslims ". You mean OBY just woke up to know about this. Buhari came to the office of the presidency to divide Nigerians along ethnic lines and to fuel religion violence across Nigeria. That is the truth. Last month Buhari appointed 13 northern Nigerian muslims as judges without a Christian. That didn't just happen. That was Buhari agenda from the get go.

So , stop being deceitful!

“I will run for President in 2023 if banditry, kidnapping, herdsmen ravaging the South West and Boko Haram, all continue unabated,” he tweeted."------Doyin Okupe

Hallelujah!
First presidential campaign shot fired at president Buhari dismissal job performance.

I have been waiting for a good narrative from opposition party, PDP, to define president Buhari and APC before today. And God bless Doyin Okupe, he came through for Nigerian people.

The only way to defeat APC party in Nigeria is have two things. First is a good messenger. And second is good narrative. A good narrative wins election, whether in Nigeria or America.

This message today by Doyin Okupe will help to fire up PDP supporters and turn trajectory for 2023 presidential election in favor of PDP.

PDP presidential aspirants interested in running for 2023 presidential election in Nigeria should follow the footsteps of Doyin Okupe .Don't announce presidential bid until you have found a good narrative to define president Buhari and APC.

Up PDP! Up Nigeria!

“The government shall continue to deal with insurgents, bandits kidnappers and other criminals who constitute a threat to innocent citizens across the country,” President Buhari"

Hypocrisy!

Buhari is an insurgent, bandit and tribalist. He is the greatest threat to Nigerian unity. According to the national president of PFN, Dr. Felix Omobude, president Buhari appointed 13 northern Nigeria muslims as judges without a single Christian.

Does Buhari appointment of 13 northern Nigerian muslims as judges without a Christian, help to unite or divide Nigeria?

You be the judge.

In fact, devil is a saint compared to the kind of
leadership president Buhari has led in Nigeria.

So, there can never be peace in Nigeria as long as Buhari remains the president of Nigeria. Again, president Buhari leadership is the biggest threat to Nigerian unity not those bandits or insurgents.

I will continue to call for president Buhari resignation as long as he remains president of Nigeria

Ayodele Fayose: “If this country exists for the peace and enjoyment of all us, we will not be talking about it is APC, it is PDP…A PDP man cannot attend a function with an APC man. An APC man cannot greet a PDP man, we can’t continue like that, it shows level of hypocrisy,” he added"

I agree.
APC as it is today has nothing to offer Nigeria. Boko haran owns and runs APC the first day Buhari joined that party. Since Buhari became president, 75000 Nigerians have lost their lives and another 5 millions have been driven out of their homes by boko haran. Over 500 hundreds Nigerians are dying each day. Unemployment is through the roof . Crime rates among all aged groups have skyrocketed. Nigeria is no longer a safe country to live anymore. Kidnappers control the country. No safe drinking water anywhere in Nigeria.

Are Nigerians and Nigeria better off than 8 years ago when Buhari was not the president ?

Punchng: “There have been political permutations and re-alignments amongst members of the PDP and the APC ahead of the 2023 general elections. There were also reports that El-Rufai, who would end his second term as Kaduna State governor in 2023, would be running with Jonathan but Omokri dismissed the report.”


Total nonsense and insulting to hear people talk seriously about Jonathan!

Whenever I hear President Goodluck Jonathan mentioned as a candidate for the presidency of Nigeria, my stomach gets hurt. Mr. Jonathan spent 6 years [2009-2015] as the president of Nigeria without building a single road. He [Goodluck Jonathan] comes from South/South region of Nigeria—a zone that produces all the money Nigeria spends and did not appoint anyone from the zone to key government job. His re-election campaign manager Femi Fani Kayode was from South West and was accused of stealing $5.3 million. He appointed Mahmood Yakubu, a Northern Nigerian as his chairman of INEC. He appointed Colonel Sambo Dasuki, a Northern Nigerian man as his National security adviser. His vice President Namadi Sambo, a Northern Nigerian man. This man [Goodluck Jonathan] was made president of Nigeria to help those who were oppressed, but only to kiss Northern Nigerians ass. No, Goodluck Jonathan should never be considered for any good position in Nigerian government again. He is a punk!

“Senate Confirms Abdulrasheed Bawa As EFCC Chairman”


Is Abdulrasheed Bawa a northern Nigerian muslin?
If the answer is yes, you know where I am coming from.

Both the senate and Efcc are rubber Stamp. No serious person in Nigeria should place any hope on Efcc fighting corruption successful. Anybody President Buhari presents for appointment earns automatic approval by Nigerian senate. No background check, nothing. The only qualification that matters is being a Northern Nigerian and muslin.

All federal ministers appointed by President came to office poor, but left the government as billionaires. And you call that ministers.

Nigerian government needs an independence agency free from government interference to investigate loss of public funds and stolen government property. Efcc as it is today is an extension of President Buhari office.

No wonder why President Buhari has lost control of the country!

" Sources said, armed insurgents were behind the attack attempting to infiltrate the city, as troops engaged them."

True!
And it is long over due for event of this nature to happen now. We saw this coming the first day Buhari became the president of Nigeria .

President Buhari tied to boko Haram and other Islamic extremists are well known in Nigeria and the western world.

In 2015 when Buhari was running for the presidency of Nigeria, the western governments endorsed Buhari over Goodluck Jonathan because according to media reports, Buhari as a Muslim and his tied to Islamic communities will help to end Islamic violence in the northern Nigeria.

But has Buhari tied to Islam been helpful in the fight against terrorism?

The answer is no.
Instead, Buhari 's presidency has fueled and propped up insurgents all over Nigeria.

And since Buhari became president, 50,000 Nigerians have died from violence--- tied to boko haran and other Islamic groups. Another 4 millions have been driven out of their homes, according to western media reports.

So I call on president Buhari to resign as soon as possible. I believe only resignation of president Buhari can end the current violence in Nigeria.

"The National Chairman of the PDP, Prince Uche Secondus, had on Saturday alleged that the leadership of the APC is giving false promises to some members of the opposition party to enable them to defect to the ruling party."

I agree with Chairman Secondus claim here, 100%.
One good example is defection of Ebony state governor to APC, David Umahi by promising to give him presidential ticket. APC knows it has no power to offer presidential ticket to governor Umahi, but lured him with false promise anyway.

One thing that is shocking to me about PDP is how much the party has become so insecured over the past 6 years.

PDP won the presidency 15 years [1999-2015].
Its political machine is still intact.
Its came close to winning the presidency in 2019, but stop short because of voting fraud by APC.

In 2023, PDP can win the presidency again if its desperate members stay put. President Buhari is not going to return in 2023 and that means northern Nigeria is up for crab.

For PDP to win presidency in 2023, it needs two things: first is a good messenger. And second is a good narrative. If members of PDP just stop being too insecure and desperate, and work on these two factors, the presidency will be theirs come 2023.

Will they listen?

"The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the leading opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are yet to zone their presidential tickets to any part of the country, but scheming for it has commenced, thus the crisis rocking the two political parties."

Outright nonsense!

No presidential ticket is going be zoned to a person or ethnic group. And that means anyone interested in becoming the the president of Nigeria should fight for the chance in a political party primaries.

I suspect people selling this false claims that a presidential ticket is going to be zoned to their tribe are ignorance of the 1999 constitution of Nigeria

So, find a copy of 1999 constitution of Nigeria and read it to educate yourself.

Finally, zoning a presidential ticket to any tribe or geopolitical zone will definitely invite military take over of Nigeria. What other choice?

"APC Plans To Pair Jonathan With El-Rufai For 2023 Presidential Ticket - Sahara Reporters"

Sahara Reporters is the source of this story?
Please don't believe any report from Sahara reporters because this website is not a reliable source of information.

Daily Trust Report: “Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State and his Ondo State counterpart, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, on Sunday, paid a visit to Sasa community in Ibadan. The governors, while speaking with residents of the area, appealed for calm and harmonious peaceful coexistence between the Hausa and the Yoruba in the community.”


President Buhari poor leadership skill is the cause of this intercommunal violence between Hausas cattle herders and the Yoruba ethnic groups—resulting in high number of deaths. He forced states in Nigeria to accept cattle herders into their land whether they like it or not. That kind of policy is unheard off. And you have seen the results.

The better policy on cattle rearing.
President Buhari should have left the decision to accept cattle herders to states governments to make. In USA and other advanced countries, cattle are raised in the farms, and not moved around on the streets or neighborhoods or residential areas. That made lovers of animals and those who don’t to live in peace.

And there is no country in world that has more cattle than America, UK, Germany, Japan and many other countries, yet, no report of clashes in those countries. That because these countries have laws in place to prevent any cattle herders from moving their animals out of farmers to streets or residential areas.

According to Reuters report, the cattle herders in Nigeria claimed dwindling grazing land in the north is why they move cattle to the South. Well, if that is the reason, these cattle herders should come to the south with trucks, buy grass to feed their animals and take them to the Northern states.

The idea of bringing trucks from Northern states to South to load up grass and take them to North is what President Buhari should have recommended. Instead, he wants all those dirty and smelling cattle herders to be roaming around in someone neighborhoods. That is nonsense.

So, my advice to President Buhari to recall all the cattle herders in the southern states to return to the Northern states. After that, he should set up a trucking business to come to the South with trucks to buy grass [pasture] from the South and drive them to Northern states for distribution. I don’t want cattle herders in my neighborhoods.

Gov.Ganduje "“I think in 2023, APC will win the election because more people are coming into the party."

I disagree.

Bringing more people to the party is not a good rational for voting to put a party back to power. APC has been in power 6.5 years now. In 2023 the APC would have been in power for 8years.

Then, the question will be : are Nigerians and Nigeria better off than they were before APC took over in 2015?

I think when that question is asked , majority of Nigerians will say no for the following reasons.

1.No road has been built since president Buhari assumed office as the president of Nigeria in 2015.

2. Over 500,000 Nigerians have lost their lives since Buhari became president of Nigeria, and more than 5 million Nigerians have been driven out of their homes by boko haran, violence crime and vandalism.

3. Over 40 million Nigerians are out of work under Buhari .

4. Nigeria is more divided than before president Buhari became president .

5. Nigeria is becoming more unstable .

6. Nigeria is becoming more ungovernable due to rising kidnappings, ethnic clashes and other violence crimes in the country.

With above horrible track record, why would anyone wants to vote to put such a party back to power?

The inquiry minds want to know.

"Devakumar Edwin, executive director of capital projects and portfolio management at Dangote Group, told Arise TV that the earlier completion and products production date could not be met due to the COVID-19 pandemic that as restrictions led to delays in the shipment of equipment from abroad."

Another proof Nigerian education has not helped Nigerians who graduate from Nigerian universities to produce anything locally .

Pandemic restriction led to delays in the shipment of equipment from abroad, according to the above report. That changed oil refinery opening day.

Are Nigerian universities and leaders troubled by this report?

When this oil refinery begins and gets interrupted by equipment failures, consumers will have to wait until broken down equipment arrive from abroad.

Did these oil refinery planners factor this issue into their decisions making before thinking about building this company in Nigeria?

Shaking my head in disbelief about the quality of education Nigerians are getting from Nigerians universities!

Babolofin: "The analysis of the risks and opportunities to the Nigerian economy is of the utmost importance. There are many financial institutions, payment platforms and exchanges that are using Cryptocurrency all over the world."


I agree with you on the importance of figuring out risks and opportunities for the use of cryptocurrency. Good decision making is based on these two factors. I am supporting banning cryptocurrency for the reasons I listed in my write up.

And I was hoping you would list some economic advantages in support for cryptocurrency, but you didn't.

I have seen people supporting the idea of keeping cryptocurrency, but none has advanced argument for their position.

So to you, Balaolofin, how would you or Nigeria benefit in keeping cryptocurrency in the market?

I hang up and listen to you on the other side.

[b]“Our philosophy on cryptocurrencies is straightforward: It’s about choice. Mastercard isn’t here to recommend you start using cryptocurrencies. But we are here to enable customers, merchants and businesses to move digital value – traditional or crypto – however, they want.”

I agree—continuing using cryptocurrency in business is about choice. Nigeria choice is banning cryptocurrency. and I hope Nigerians should begin to respect this choice by President Buhari administration.

Economic concerns about cryptocurrency, according to many studies are clear:
 It causes tax evasion
 It causes money laundry
 It allows terrorist groups to channel money for the purchase of weapons and other illegal purposes.
 It presents risks for individuals’ investors and financial systems
 It undercuts a country monetary policy

So, I call on president Buhari to ignore any call for lifting ban on cryptocurrency. Those in favor of cryptocurrency are profiting from it at the expense of millions of Nigeria.
