I think Dapo still has a lot to learn from Sanwo-Olu. The way Sanwo-Olu runs his government, openly accepting criticism and even turning many of his critics into supporters is a leadership style other governors should study and emulate.
PoliticsRe: "Have Faith In Tinubu’s Plans For Power Sector" Adelabu Urges Nigerians by ibabz(m): 2:54pm On Mar 12
Don’t be surprised if electricity supply suddenly “improves” in the coming days. Not because the government fixed anything, not because new generation capacity came online, and definitely not because of some brilliant policy intervention.

Most likely, nothing was wrong with the power generation system ab initio. The darkness simply created the perfect crisis, one that can now be theatrically “solved.”

Once the lights come back, the propaganda engine will kick into full gear, the data boys will flood the internet with graphs and statistics, and the gullible will be convinced they just witnessed the miracle of competent governance, courtesy of a government that still seems utterly clueless about actually fixing anything.
PoliticsHow To Turn National Suffering Into Political Success by ibabz(op): 8:34am On Mar 10
If you understand Tinubu’s political style very well, you might begin to suspect that what Nigerians call “crisis” might actually just be Act One of a carefully directed political movie.

The man understands something many politicians don’t: Nigerians forget faster than a WhatsApp status disappears.

Let’s start with rice.

When Tinubu took office, a 50kg bag of rice was roughly N45,000–N50,000. Then suddenly rice discovered it had aviation ambitions.

N60,000…
N80,000…
N100,000…

Before Nigerians could finish shouting “God abeg!”, the price landed majestically at an all-time high of about N120,000 per bag in many markets.

Rice had officially crossed from food to luxury commodity; somewhere between gold and land in Lekki.

Then something interesting happened.

Without any major agricultural breakthrough…
Without any large-scale government intervention…
Without any serious policy that could logically justify it…

The price suddenly dropped from that N120,000 peak to around N70,000–N80,000 per bag.

Not N50,000 where it originally was.
Not even close.

Just low enough for the government’s praise choir to start warming up their microphones.

“See? The policies are working!”
Which policies?

“Economic reforms are yielding results!”
As how now?

Meanwhile Nigerians are celebrating because the rope around their neck seemed loosened slightly.

Now enter Electricity: The Sequel.

the same script

Step one:
Let power supply collapse so badly that Nigerians start celebrating two hours of electricity like they just won the World Cup.

Step two:
Allow the frustration to peak until generators officially replace the national grid.

Step three:
Months later, improve electricity just a little.

Not stable power.
Not 24 hours.

Just enough light to charge phones, iron clothes, and boil water.

That’s when the government’s online orchestra will begin performing.

You’ll suddenly start seeing coordinated questions everywhere:

“How is the power situation in your area?”

“How many hours of light in your area today?”

Then right on cue, their loyal digital disciples will appear from every corner of the internet:

“Light is stable in my area.”
“Power has improved drastically.”
“This government is working.”

The N30k monthly stipend warriors.
The data-funded defenders.
The professional praise contractors.

Before long, the national conversation magically shifts from:

“Everything is collapsing”

to

“Things are improving.”

And just like that, a disaster becomes a campaign achievement.

Because the oldest trick in politics is simple:

Break everything first.
Then fix 10% of it and call it progress.

By the time elections arrive, the slogan might as well be:

“Remember when there was no light?
Now there is small light.
Vote continuity.”

And Nigerians, blessed with hope and cursed with short political memory will say:

“Hmm… to be fair, light don improve small.”

Curtain closes.
Applause.
Another election cycle successfully completed.

PoliticsThe Political Arithmetic: Why Atiku + Obi Is The Only Threat APC Fears by ibabz(op): 1:51pm On Jan 23
I would like to engage with real Obidients (not APC miscreants or keyboard warriors) disguising as Obidients on an intellectual and strategic political discourse.

There is a new and growing sentiment around Peter Obi’s 2027 candidacy. I have heard many insist that it must be “Peter Obi or nothing.” Some have even threatened to vote for the ruling party if Obi is not the ADC flagbearer. the same style of blackmail Wike employed when he demanded “Southern presidency” in 2023, knowing that such sentiment strategically benefited the ruling party. The same script is being played again, and many are falling for it. I do not know where this “Obi or nothing” doctrine originated from, but one thing is clear: there is serious social engineering behind it and it seems working.

While everyone is entitled to their choice and to the consequences that follow. Unfortunately, many Obidients have not learned from the 2023 election. The consequences of those decisions are exactly what we are facing today. If we repeat the same mistake in 2027, Nigeria should expect an even worse and more devastating outcome.

The purpose of this write-up is to explain why I believe an Atiku–Obi joint ticket remains the most formidable opposition structure the ruling party fears. If you disagree, that is fine, but let your disagreement come with logic, data, and analogy. If you have nothing meaningful to contribute, kindly stay off the discussion.

Basic Questions
1. Does Peter Obi have the right to aspire to be President? — Yes.
2. Could he make a good President? — Likely, yes.
3. But can he defeat Bola Tinubu in 2027 as ADC flagbearer? Most likely, no.

The 2023 Illusion
A major illusion held by many Obidients is the claim that Obi “won” the 2023 election. This claim cannot be substantiated. Winning some major PDP states does not translate to winning the national vote. The reality is that Obi mainly divided traditional PDP/Atiku votes.

If you examine the states where Obi performed strongly, they were historically PDP strongholds. Before 2019, Obi was not a nationally popular figure. Joining Atiku significantly increased his visibility and acceptance, which later became the foundation of his 2023 momentum.

Obi could pull votes predominantly from PDP terrains but could not penetrate non-PDP regions in the same proportion.

Tinubu and APC understood this early and capitalized on the split. Someone who fails an exam but insists the teacher “stole their marks” is not ready to improve. Without acknowledging why 2023 ended the way it did, nothing will change in 2027.

Strategic Realities Ahead of 2027

If Obi emerges as ADC candidate, he faces structural challenges:

1. Southern Governors
Many southern governors have already pledged loyalty to Tinubu publicly or quietly. Without southern machinery, a national electoral fight becomes nearly impossible.

2. Northern Voting Arithmetic
Even if Obi sweeps the South East + South South + minority South West votes, he still cannot win without significant northern numbers. Politics is arithmetic, not sentiments.

3. “We No Dey Give Shishi”
Obi is not prepared to spend money for vote buying, while the ruling party is prepared to spend aggressively. Recent Edo and Ondo elections showed that many shouting “We no dey give shishi” online may not resist cash at polling units.

Most online Obidients operate from echo chambers in the South East/South South. But national elections are not won in echo chambers or beer-parlour debate zones.
Nigeria’s electoral map rewards coalition-building, not emotional arguments.

Let’s Examine the Numbers

2019 Election (Atiku/Obi ticket):
11,262,978 votes

2023 Election:
Atiku: 6,984,520
Obi: 6,101,533
Combined: 13,086,053
1.8 million more than in 2019, despite running separately.

Now compare with APC:

2019 APC: 15,191,847
2023 APC: 8,794,726
APC lost over 6.4 million votes (42% decline).

And today conditions are worse; harsher economy, anti-people policies, subsidy removal, floating naira, new taxes, inflation, etc. APC’s numbers are unlikely to improve in 2027.

The opposition actually has a better shot in 2027 than in 2023 because the consequences of governance have fully landed. The same crowd that shouted “Èmi l’ókàn” and “Ìdì bèbèrè” now understands the cost of their enthusiasm. If in doubt, go to any Lagos market and repeat “ẹ lo fi ọkàn balẹ.” I sampled opinions recently, none defended the ruling party. You may be lucky to escape without being stoned.

Hypothetical Atiku–Obi Combined Support (2023 Arithmetic Method)

This is not a forecast but a raw mathematical sum of 2023 PDP + LP by zones:

North West
Tinubu: 39.5%
Atiku/Obi sum: 40.1%

North East
Tinubu 29.2%
Atiku/Obi sum 56.7%

North Central
Tinubu: 38.6%
Atiku/Obi: 56.5%

South West
Tinubu: 53.6%
Atiku/Obi sum: 42.1%

South East
Tinubu: 5.7%
Atiku/Obi: 91.9%

South South
Tinubu: 28.0%
Atiku/Obi: 67.5%

This arithmetic shows why the ruling party fears a united opposition. It does not guarantee victory, but it shows strategic potential.

Why APC Loves the “Obi Alone” Narrative

Ask yourself: Why are APC power blocs, from Wike to others cheering for Obi as the sole candidate? Since when does a ruling party pray for the strongest opponent to emerge?

Yet some self-proclaimed Obidients are unknowingly advancing APC’s preferred scenario by promoting fragmentation.

We saw Pat Utomi (we know the role he played in 2023), Aisha Yusuf, and several influencers pushing emotional arguments. Some are acting innocently, some emotionally, some may have been bought or blackmailed, and some are simply not politically literate.

Conclusion

The configuration APC fears is Atiku + Obi.
The configuration APC prefers is Obi alone.

This is the strategic paradox Obidients must confront unless the goal is to repeat 2023 and suffer an even worse outcome in 2027.

Show us the mansion you have built with your salary before this government
I bought 4 plots of land under Buhari at ₦1m ($3,300) each, ₦4m ($13,000) in total.

Fast forward to today: the same plot is now ₦3m ($2,000). On paper, in naira, land has “appreciated.” But in dollars, the 4 plots are now $8,000.

In other words, I’ve lost $5,000, a 38.5% loss, not because the land depreciated but because the currency collapsed. That’s what bad policies do; they destroy value silently.

We are in an economy where even land, the safest store of value, can become a casualty of forex and policy mismanagement.

If they had stood firmly behind Kanu the way northern leaders stood behind their extremists, perhaps things would be different today.

PoliticsRe: Awolowo's Grandson, Olusegun Awolowo Jr Dies At 62 by ibabz(m): 7:23am On Nov 21, 2025
YouAreNobody:
I May Probably Disappear Because of this Post But I Think it’s Necessary for You to Know.

For years, ordinary Nigerians have been burying loved ones, while powerful voices in Abuja and the northern states have been busy massaging the egos of killers and sympathizing with them.

Let me refresh your memories.

In 2013, Muhammadu Buhari said that “the military offensive against Boko Haram is anti-North,” attacking Jonathan’s state of emergency in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa. Many families who lost loved ones in the North have never forgotten those words. The terrorists even went on to elect him as their spokesman. This same man went on to become a president of Nigeria.

In Kaduna, Nasir El-Rufai openly admitted that his government traced violent Fulani herdsmen outside Nigeria and paid them to stop killing people in Southern Kaduna, saying as a Fulani governor he had “no problem paying compensations” to them. This was a governor proudly saying that there was nothing wrong in paying bandits compensations.

In an old sermon, Isa Pantami, who later became Minister of Communications, described Boko Haram fighters as “our Muslim brothers” and complained that they were being killed “like pigs” instead of being pampered like Niger Delta militants. For saying this and openly sympathizing with these terrorists, he was placed in charge of a strategic position as the minister of communication.

Most of you don’t know how powerful the ministry of communications, Innovation, and digital economy is. Let me try to summarize its power in either aiding or impeding the fight against terrorism.

This ministry oversees the entire digital backbone of and structure of the country.
That includes:

-NCC (Nigerian Communications Commission)
-NITDA
-Galaxy Backbone
-National Identity database (NIN)
-Cybersecurity policy and digital surveillance systems
-Telecom regulation through MTN, Airtel, Glo, 9mobile
-Internet monitoring, interception frameworks, SIM registration systems

All of these tools matter directly to national security.

You cannot fight terrorism without:
-Tracking phone calls
-Intercepting communications
-Tracing ransom calls
-Mapping bandit networks
-Identifying sleeper cells

This entire power sits under the Ministry’s regulatory supervision.

If the ministry is strong, coordinated and loyal to national security, terrorists lose their anonymity.
If the ministry is weak, compromised, or misaligned, terrorists operate freely.

This is why countries treat digital and communication ministries as security ministries, not just “internet ministries.”

The ministry leads Nigeria’s entire cybersecurity ecosystem, including:
-National Cybersecurity Policy
-Inter-agency cyber response teams
-Protection of critical digital infrastructure
-Collaboration with security agencies on intelligence

Of course, we know that terrorists now use:
-Encrypted platforms
-Digital fundraising
-Social media networks
-Online propaganda
-Cross-border WhatsApp coordination

The ministry is crucial in shutting these down or letting terrorists do as they please.

To avoid making this post too long, I won’t be able to tell you other importance of this ministry, but you can Subscribe to KaaTruths You/Tube channel and watch a documentary when I discussed this.

Now, let us continue.

In 2021, Lai Mohammed went on live TV and said that if granting amnesty to a warlord would make others surrender, he would “take that decision” and threw his weight behind governors who offered amnesty instead of confrontation to bandits. Lai Mohammed was the minister of Information under President Buhari.

Former Zamfara governor Ahmad Sani Yerima went to see President Tinubu in 2023 and came out publicly urging him to consider amnesty for bandits, arguing that they “deserve amnesty and not death” and should be negotiated with like Niger Delta militants. For him, these terrorists and bandits should not be killed.

Zamfara’s then governor, Bello Matawalle, even told Nigerians that “not all bandits are criminals”, insisting that some picked up guns because vigilantes wronged them, while his government pushed amnesty and cash deals with these same gangs. 

Former Katsina governor Aminu Masari launched an amnesty programme and promoted dialogue with bandits in Buhari’s home state, before later admitting the whole arrangement failed and that he regretted trusting them at all. 

And here’s the big one. Our current Vice President, Kashim Shettima, once said in 2011 that “the Boko Haram people are human beings who deserve fair hearing” and called them “our brothers”, calling for dialogue instead of a hard crackdown. Please, read that again gently. And how many of you still remembered whose house Kabiru Sokoto the Boko Haram prominent leader who bombed Nyanya was caught after escaping from police custody?

Ali Modu Sheriff, on the other hand, is surrounded by thick smoke andd reports linking his time as Borno governor to the rise of Boko Haram, yet he loudly denies everything but said something that most people have really not paid attention to. He said, “it’s not me, it’s Shettima who created Boko Haram.”

Dave Umahi who’s now a minister. At an event in Abakaliki in May 2021, where he presented vehicles to security agencies during his time as governor said:
“Bandits are our children, we should empower them.”

I hope you are still following.

Outside formal politics, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi built a full ministry of sympathy around bandits, insisting they are “not criminals”, demanding amnesty and rehabilitation, and scolding the media for calling them what they are. 

While thousands of villagers, farmers, churchgoers and travellers were being slaughtered, kidnapped and raped, you had powerful men debating the “feelings” of bandits and proposing salaries and amnesty for them.

Let this sink in: there are more powerful voices fighting to launder the image of bandits than there are voices fighting for the widows and orphans they left behind.

One day, Nigeria will have to ask herself: who really created this monster and who kept feeding it with soft words, cash settlements and political protection?

And the most chilling question would probably be: “Can we confidently separate our government from those we are asking the government to protect us from?”

Oga, I think it’s better to direct your anger and frustration toward the politicians from your own region. Look at the situation with bandits and Boko Haram — despite all the terrible acts they committed, their politicians and influential voices still stood firmly to defend them and speak on their behalf.

Can you point to any strong pressure group from the South East that openly defended Nnamdi Kanu? In fact, most of your politicians didn’t even want to be associated with him publicly. If the South East had the same level of coordinated pressure and advocacy that terrorists in the North received from their leaders, perhaps things would not be the way they are today.

You listed all the powerful voices that defended Boko Haram and bandits in the North, but you didn’t mention any equivalent pressure groups from the South.

Instead of ranting online, I will suggest you people show your politicians that they have failed you by voting them out.

There are so many factors contributing to naira gaining strength against dollar.

Firstly, the subsidy removal on fuel. The government used to pay the money in dollars even for the fact that almost half of the exported fuel for refining won't make it back to Nigeria. Reason why Benin was protesting when Nigeria removed fuel subsidy

Secondly, according to the last import and export reports, we are now exporting more than importing meaning the pressure on dollar demand is reducing

Some transactions that normally required dollar payment can now be paid in naira with your local credit card.

Before , the institutions, the business people can go to bank to request for dollar but now, you will be scrutinized on what you need the dollar for.

22 Nov 2017 – Federal Ministry of Information & Culture (Press conference, Abuja)

“We are happy to tell Nigerians of a giant stride made by the Administration in the agriculture sector, specifically rice production: Nigeria is inching closer to achieving self-sufficiency in rice, due to the success recorded by the Administration in the local production of rice.”


By 2018, the administration targets rice production of seven million metric tonnes. As of 2015, rice demand in Nigeria stood at 6.3 million MT.”


12 Nov 2019 – Independent Newspaper

“The Federal Government has affirmed that Nigeria is closer to attaining self-sufficiency in rice production than at any time in the country’s history due to the government’s firm decision on border drill.


“Today, we want to share with you, the giant strides that the Buhari Administration has made in two key areas: The Rice Revolution and the Fertilizer Revolution!
But before I go into details, let me say this: The country has never been closer to self-sufficiency in rice, a national staple, than now.”

“This government has stopped Boko Haram from bombing major cities … (There is) the diversification of the economy from its over-reliance on oil to other sources of revenue leading to food security in just two years.
“President Buhari’s vision has unleashed infrastructure revolution aimed at redressing cumulative years of neglect.”
The Cable


3 Oct 2023 – ThisDayLive
“No administration in this country found itself in economic issues like Buhari’s because of our dependence on oil and prices, which went down. We also had the Coronavirus pandemic.
