Our currency has indeed faced a lot. From the days of Manila and Shillings to the introduction of the Nigerian Pound in 1958, and later the Naira and Kobo in 1973, our monetary history has been a journey of strength and struggle. There was a time when the Naira was stronger than the U.S. Dollar, commanding respect in global trade. But over the years, economic instability, policy shifts, and external pressures have led to its decline. Today, the Naira continues to battle depreciation, reflecting the challenges within our economy. Won't be surprised if it goes up again.

This Nigerian Waterfall Restores Fertility & Strength! (Gurara Waterfalls) I visited Gurara Waterfall, Niger State, Nigeria https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajs5Dsci0mU Gurara Waterfall, located in Gurara Local Government Area of Niger State, Nigeria, is a breathtaking natural attraction with deep cultural and historical significance. The name Gurara originates from two deities of the Gwari (Gbagyi) people—Gura and Rara. Gura was believed to be a powerful male spirit associated with strength and protection, while Rara was a female deity linked to fertility and abundance. The Gwari people performed rituals and sacrifices at the waterfall, seeking blessings for rain, bountiful harvests, and protection.Gurara Waterfall, Nigeria State Nigeria. The name Gurara comes from a combination of these two deities, reflecting the indigenous belief that the waterfall was a sacred place. Before colonial influence, and in recent times, the locals likely performed rituals and offerings to these gods to seek blessings and protection. Originally discovered by local hunters, Gurara Waterfall later gained attention from European explorers during the colonial era. Over time, it became a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors with its impressive 30-meter-high cascades and seasonal width of up to 200 meters. Today, the waterfall is known for its scenic beauty, offering opportunities for swimming, picnicking, and sightseeing while preserving the rich cultural heritage of the Gwari people. The best time to visit is between January - May which is predominantly dry season in Nigeria. The water from the fall is heavy during rainy season and you can only admire from afar.

I still wonder what has happened to the 112bn approved for Oloibiri Oilfield for Oloibiri Museum and Research Centre since 2023. That place is in Ruins now |
So sad |
Retired Generals Behind Illegal Mining in Nigeria – Oshiomhole https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbLpYDuPLJ4?si=s3FsY69LveT6c3x7 Chairman of the Senate Committee on Interior, Adams Oshomole has accused some retired military generals of being involved in illegal mining activities across Nigeria. Oshiomhole made this claim during the presentation of the 2025 budget report by Chairman of the Senate Committee on Solid Minerals Development, Sampson Ekong to the Senate Committee on Appropriations. While reacting to the proposals made in the submission, Oshiomhole stated that efforts to diversify Nigeria’s economy would remain unattainable if the administration of President Bola Tinubu fails to address the issue of illegal mining. The former Edo State Governor said, “The ongoing illegal mining across the country is being carried out by retired generals, some of whom are well known.” Oshiomhole revealed that he had previously written to former President Muhammadu Buhari on the matter. He recounted how a team he sent to conduct party primaries in Zamfara State reported challenges linked to illegal mining activities in the region. The Edo North senator suggested deploying the military and other security forces, such as the Joint Task Forces, JTFs, comprising the Army, Police, and Air Force, to tackle both illegal mining and oil theft. He stressed the need for decisive action, even if it required using force against perpetrators. The Committee members agreed with Oshiomhole’s observations and called on security agencies to intensify efforts against illegal mining. Lawmakers also proposed a substantial increase in the budget for the Ministry of Solid Minerals to strengthen its capacity to address the issue effectively. https://ait.live/retired-generals-behind-illegal-mining-in-nigeria-oshiomhole/

Only if Buhari had developed Northern Nigeria, it's agriculture, tourism and security. Make he go rest. Take a look at how the Beautiful Yusufari Desert isn't talked about very well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgQP5qOzTMU |

One unique feature of Ogbunike Cave is its natural ventilation system. Despite being an enclosed space with winding tunnels and chambers, the cave maintains a constant flow of fresh air, making it surprisingly cool and comfortable inside. This natural phenomenon is part of what makes the cave so extraordinary, as it creates an almost otherworldly atmosphere that feels both refreshing and mysterious. Additionally, the cave is home to a unique ecosystem, including colonies of bats and rare insect species that thrive in its dark, moist environment. These creatures are considered part of the cave’s sacred aura, and local traditions discourage harming them, further emphasizing the harmony between nature and spirituality in this remarkable space. |
Ogbunike Cave, located in Ogbunike town in Anambra State, is not just a natural wonder but a deeply spiritual place that has been revered for generations. It was discovered centuries ago by a hunter named Ukwa, who stumbled upon its tunnels while chasing game. Over time, the cave became a sacred site, where people come to seek divine intervention, purification, and spiritual power. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgL1PeUfkcA Inside the cave, there’s a holy rock, believed to radiate energy that strengthens and heals. A section of the cave holds holy water, used for cleansing and blessings, while the make-a-wish section invites visitors to present their desires in faith. These features have made the cave a spiritual retreat for many, drawing people from far and wide. Adding to the mystery of the site are the two rivers nearby—the warm Cave River and the cold Nkissa River—which flow side by side without mixing. This rare phenomenon is often seen as a symbol of harmony and balance, further reinforcing the cave’s reputation as a place of divine significance. Visitors must descend 317 steps into the cave, entering a cool, otherworldly space filled with chambers, streams, and bats. Local stories tell of the cave offering refuge in times of conflict and serving as a spiritual haven for those seeking guidance, blessings, or healing. Ogbunike Cave isn’t just a tourist attraction—it’s a place where history, nature, and spirituality come together, offering an unforgettable and life-changing experience for those who visit.

They should also rehabilitate the Oloibiri Oilfield Museum and Research Centre where over N100B was budgeted in 2023. The place where Nigeria got her first Crude in Commercial Quantity is in a Mess https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIvZpXlnXbo?si=i4C6CfiXPapjLF37 |
