Fatherly instinct in play. When you are a true father, you will do it unconditionally.

Delta APC was founded by Delta PDP. They are only changing positions. Same people, same vision. How come everyone in Delta political office decamp from PDP to APC.
The only opposition to the guys is Great Ogboru.
That is if he decides to join PDP.
Delta State has the best political understanding in Nigeria.

Nigeria and the Lessons of Export Dependence: Building a Resilient Economy in a Changing World

The economic tensions triggered by the U.S.-China trade war and the Russia-Ukraine conflict have reshaped the way countries plan their economies. The Trump-era tariffs on Chinese exports and the Biden administration’s sanctions on Russia over its invasion of Ukraine both serve as powerful case studies. They highlight a sobering truth: export-dependent economies are vulnerable to global geopolitical shocks. For a country like Nigeria, this lesson is timely and deeply relevant.

1. Overreliance on Exports Can Be Dangerous

Nigeria's economy is heavily reliant on crude oil, which accounts for over 90% of its export earnings. This overdependence has repeatedly exposed the country to global oil price fluctuations and external shocks. Just as Chinese industries suffered from U.S. tariffs and Russia from Western sanctions, Nigeria faces economic instability when global demand or prices for oil drop. This exposes a critical vulnerability: Nigeria’s economic fate is often dictated by external forces beyond its control.

2. The Need for Diversified Trade Partners

Russia's reliance on the European market for its energy exports proved costly when sanctions hit. Similarly, Nigeria must recognize the risk of depending too heavily on a narrow group of trade partners. A more diversified export strategy — expanding trade with emerging markets in Asia, Latin America, and Africa — can cushion Nigeria from sudden policy shifts in major economies. Participation in the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) offers a golden opportunity to tap into regional demand and reduce exposure to global market volatility.

3. Resilience Through Domestic Demand

India's pivot to domestic consumption offers a valuable blueprint for Nigeria. With a population of over 200 million, Nigeria holds immense potential for internal economic growth driven by consumer demand. Investing in local industries, agriculture, digital services, and infrastructure can unlock this potential. Encouraging made-in-Nigeria goods and services would not only reduce imports but also create jobs and boost GDP from within.

4. Importance of Supply Chain Security

The disruption of global supply chains during the trade war and sanctions era demonstrated how fragile international systems can be. Nigeria, which depends heavily on imported goods — from refined petroleum to food and machinery — is especially vulnerable. Economic planners must focus on building local manufacturing capacity, particularly in strategic sectors such as energy, healthcare, and food processing. **Developing local supply chains strengthens national resilience** in times of global uncertainty.

5. Strategic Autonomy is a Priority

Both China and Russia have learned the hard way about the importance of strategic autonomy. For Nigeria, this means investing in self-reliance: in energy refining, technology, defense, and agriculture. The Dangote Refinery, for example, is a step in the right direction, aiming to reduce Nigeria's dependence on imported fuel. Such initiatives must be supported with policy consistency, infrastructure investment, and incentives for local innovation.

Conclusion

The global economic landscape is changing rapidly, shaped by politics, conflict, and strategic rivalry. Nigeria cannot afford to remain tethered to a narrow, oil-based export model. The lessons from the U.S.-China trade war and sanctions on Russia are clear: economic resilience comes from diversification, domestic strength, and strategic autonomy. By heeding these lessons, Nigeria can build a more stable, inclusive, and self-reliant economy — one better equipped to weather the storms of global geopolitics.

How Atiku Abubakar Can Finally Become President of Nigeria

Atiku Abubakar, one of Nigeria's most enduring and influential political figures, has the wealth, nationwide structure, and name recognition that many politicians can only dream of. Yet despite several presidential bids, victory has remained elusive. The primary reason isn't a lack of popularity or political machinery—it’s timing.

The Power of Timing in Nigerian Politics

Nigerian politics operates within an unwritten but widely respected rotational framework—between North and South, and often even within religious and ethnic sub-regions. In 2023, Bola Ahmed Tinubu's win was not just about his political prowess, but about the rightness of time. After eight years of a Northern presidency under Muhammadu Buhari, the South—particularly the Southwest—was seen as due for a turn. That sentiment played a crucial role in galvanizing elite and grassroots support for Tinubu.

Atiku’s 2023 bid clashed with this sentiment, making it an uphill battle from the start.

Why Atiku Should Not Contest in 2027

The 2027 presidential election is expected to be influenced by a growing sentiment of allowing the South to complete its eight-year term. If Atiku contests again in 2027, he risks not only another loss but also deepening political fatigue around his candidacy.

Instead, he should strategically sit out the 2027 race and take on the role of a kingmaker.

The Strategic Play: Support Tinubu in 2027

If Atiku throws his support behind Tinubu in 2027—either openly or through back-channel agreements—he can position himself as a national unifier and elder statesman. In return, he can extract a political commitment from Tinubu and the APC power structure to support or at least not obstruct his 2031 bid.

By 2031, the presidency would, in theory, be "due" for the North again. That could provide Atiku the perfect alignment of national zoning sentiment, political capital, and elder statesman appeal.

Bridge-Building and Legacy

Over the next four years, Atiku should focus on:
- Strengthening intra-party cohesion, especially within the PDP.
- Building cross-party bridges, especially with key power brokers in the North and Southwest.
- Rebranding his image as a statesman rather than a perennial candidate.
- Investing in younger political proteges who can champion his vision and help consolidate influence across regions.

Conclusion

Atiku’s path to the presidency may not lie in another immediate attempt, but in strategic patience. By endorsing Tinubu in 2027 under a North-South power-sharing understanding, he could finally align timing, support, and legacy in 2031—the moment that may well be his time.

A draft proposal tailored to the Federal Government of Nigeria to implement a mandatory 3-year National Youth Empowerment Service (NYES), targeting youths who completed WAEC but did not gain university admission, as well as out-of-school children above 18 years of age.

Proposal for the Establishment of the National Youth Empowerment Service (NYES)

Submitted to:
The Federal Government of Nigeria
Through:The Ministry of Youth and Sports Development

Title:
National Youth Empowerment Service (NYES): A Strategic Civic Conscription Program for Economic Self-Reliance and Nation-Building

Executive Summary

This proposal seeks approval and funding for the establishment of the National Youth Empowerment Service (NYES)—a 3-year mandatory service and skills development program aimed at engaging Nigerian youth who have completed the WAEC examination without gaining tertiary admission, as well as out-of-school youths above 18 years. This initiative is designed to curb youth unemployment, reduce social vices, and harness Nigeria’s large youth population for national development and economic productivity.

Background and Rationale

Nigeria's youth population (ages 15–35) represents over 60% of the country’s total population. However, a large percentage remain unemployed, underemployed, or out of school, with limited economic engagement. The education-to-employment pipeline is broken, leaving many post-secondary students idle for years.

This socio-economic gap contributes significantly to:
- Rising crime rates,
- Youth restiveness and insecurity,
- Rural-urban migration,
- Drug abuse and cultism,
- Economic stagnation in key sectors like agriculture and local manufacturing.

There is an urgent need for a structured, compulsory civic-based empowerment program that engages this idle population and equips them with the skills, discipline, and entrepreneurship capacity needed for economic contribution.

Program Description

Program Name:
National Youth Empowerment Service (NYES)

Duration:
3 years (initial phase), renewable based on success evaluation.

Target Participants:
1. All youths who completed WAEC but failed to gain tertiary admission within one year.
2. Out-of-school youths aged 18 and above without formal tertiary education.
3. Youths identified through community-based mobilization.

Structure of the Program

A. Duration Per Participant:
12 months, broken into:
- 3 months Basic Citizenship Training & Orientation(discipline, civic education, entrepreneurship)

- ICT and Digital Innovation
- Agro-business and Processing
- Technical/Vocational Trades (plumbing, welding, tiling, carpentry, etc.)
- Fashion, Creative Arts, and Entertainment
- Construction and Renewable Energy
- Public Health & Community Services

Implementation Mechanism
1. Governing Body:
- NYES Federal Secretariat, coordinated by the Ministry of Youth and Sports Development.
- State and LGA Implementation Units for regional delivery.

2. Training Facilities:
- Use of existing NYSC camps,
Technical colleges,
ITF centres, and
Partnered private training institutions.

3. Registration & Selection:
- Digital enrollment linked to WAEC records, NIN, and community validation systems.
- Local government offices to verify and mobilize out-of-school participants.

4. Monitoring & Evaluation:

Total. ₦1.44 Trillion (₦480 Billion/year)

Note: Public-private partnerships, diaspora bonds, and development grants are proposed for supplementary funding.

Conclusion and Call to Action

The National Youth Empowerment Service (NYES) is a transformative solution to one of Nigeria’s most pressing national challenges. By mandatorily conscripting idle youths into meaningful, productive national service, the government can reduce unemployment, boost economic participation, and stabilize society.

We urge the Federal Government to:
1. Approve NYES as a Presidential Initiative.
2. Allocate seed funding in the next fiscal budget.
3. Issue a policy directive for immediate planning and rollout by the Ministry of Youth and Sports Development.

Manchester United fc is one of the finest club in the world with great history and lots of trophies.
Under the leadership of Sir Alex.Manutd was highly respected both on the pitch of play and off the field of play.
After his retirement,the glory of the club went off despite the like of great coaches like the chosen one José Mourinho.
So what then is the problem with the club.
Money? No!
Good Players? No!
Manchester United also know as the Red Devils embody a character under Sir Alex Ferguson, which is lacking which is no longer available in the club .
This character brings the fear factor other coaches have for Manutd under Sir Alex.
So what then is character?
Manchester United under Sir Alex was a club were both Coach and players were Smart like the devil.but the current players are not , though some are good on the pitch of play. That character trait is lacking both among the coaches and players.
Until Manutd start buying players and coaches that have PhD in yahoo business they will continue to struggle.
Manchester United need a team that embody the devil character on the field of play.
The Devil is incredibly wicked and evil, but also intelligent and witty – he is the father of all tricksters – that is what makes him so dangerous.
Manutd use to be a club full of tricksters but not anymore.
Manchester United do not need good players but players that are trickster
