presidency: JINXES BROKEN BY THE MUHAMMADU BUHARI ADMINISTRATION—PRESIDENCY
A giant-sized jinx was broken recently when the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) announced a first Net Profit in the 44-year history of the organization. Under President Muhammadu Buhari, who doubles as Minister for Petroleum Resources, the oil conglomerate announced a first-ever profit of N287 billion. Such had never happened before. But that was by no means the only major jinx broken in the lifetime of the Buhari administration. They abound. And here are just some of them. The list is by no means exhaustive:
Policies and legislation:

*Nigeria Correctional Service Act, 2019 - overhauled the existing Prisons Act, almost 50 years after it was first enacted.

[quote author=benjackugo post=105500802]Reno Omokri: We Will Have Another UK-Based President, If We Vote Tinubu As President
Former Presidential aide, Reno Omokri has shared his opinion on the way Nigerians have been trooping to London to see APC National leader, Bola Tinubu who is in the country for medical care, IgbereTV reports.
Reno said the different trips to the UK to see Tinubu should serve as a ''warning to Nigerians not to vote Tinubu as President come 2023.'' There are rumours that Tinubu has the intention to run for presidency in 2023, eventhough, he hasn't declared it publicly.
gidgiddy: You may remember Elvis Okafor. He went out to buy food for his sick mother in Orlu, Imo state, when he was accosted by security agents, accused of being IPOB/ESN, beaten and bundled to the Owerri, along with 20 other randomly arrested men. They were stripped to their underwear and made to take pictures with Biafran flags, arms and ammunition and drugs. The then Police Commissioner of Imo State, Abutu Yaro, gleefully paraded the innocent men as "ESN Operatives". Unfortunately for Abutu Yaro, relatives of the arrested men, including Elvis Okafor, raised the alarm on social media about how the men were framed, and this attracted the attention of mainstream media, including Punch Newspaper. As questions were raised about the legality of the men's arrest, Abutu Yaro was hurriedly transferred out of Imo State to protect him. Elvis Okafor has been released on Police bail and below is the report:
The Imo State Police Command has released Elvis Okafor, the 23-year-old boy arrested in the Orlu Local Government of the state and labelled an operative of the Eastern Security Network.
Okafor was reportedly released on Sunday, August 28, 2021.
Our correspondent had reported that the victim left his house to buy foodstuffs in the market for his ailing mother when he was arrested alongside two other persons.
PUNCH Metro also reported how Okafor was paraded by the state police command alongside 19 persons with different arms and ammunition displayed before them.
His relative, Gideon Dominics, raised the alarm after seeing his photograph on Facebook while being paraded by the police.
Dominics, in a post on Facebook, wrote, “This is my little cousin, Elvis Okafor; have you seen how dramatic Nigeria is? A little boy that went to buy foodstuffs for his sick mum is now a member of IPOB?
“A boy that came back from church and hasn’t eaten anything is now brandishing a gun as an ESN member? You see the Nigerian magic? Is this how innocent people are being framed daily?
While speaking with our correspondent on Monday, Dominic stated that his cousin had been released on bail.
“If you see my cousin, you will not believe he is the person. After spending 29 days in a police cell, he was looking sick and in need of medical attention,” he added.
Dominic stated that Okafor would not be able to speak immediately due to his condition.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Mike Abattam, could not be reached as calls and a text message to his mobile phone were neither answered nor replied to
CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA FINALLY SIGNED THE CURRENCY_SWAP_DEAL WITH CHINA✍️.
The CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA (CBN) have finally signed the currency swap deal we have been expecting for the past 2 years into existence with the Chinese Government.
The importance of this is that since almost 70% of the goods we import come from #China and #Asia and 12% #America why must we use Dollars to transact with China? from now instead of using dollars at N500 to 1dollar to import those goods, we can now buy #Yuan at 47 naira to 1 Yuan and import those stuffs directly.
INSTEAD OF BUYING THESE GOODS IN DOLLARS IN CHINA, WE WILL NOW BUY THEM IN YUAN WHICH IS 5TIMES CHEAPER DOLLARS.....
As usual, another giant stride which Print Media, Electronic Media and Nigerian looters will not report or allow you to understand this victory over supremacy of dollars in our daily lives and economic activities.
Up coming reality is that from tomorrow, try to monitor exchange rate. Some of those guys who hoarded foreign currencies to make gains will off load them in order not to have heart attack over their huge loss arising from the currency swap deal with china. Dollars and pounds will flood everywhere with no buyers, as the buyers will draw naira from their accounts in banks with presence in China.
MANY NIGERIAN BANKS WILL BE SEEKING TO HAVE THEIR REPRESENTATIVE OFFICE IN CHINA LIKE FIRST BANK SAW TO THE FUTURE AND ALREADY HAVE OFFICE IN CHINA... INFLATION WILL GO DOWN DRASTICALLY BECAUSE OF THE PRICE OF COMMODITIES
