Normal talking point for those who don't know Nnamdi Kanu or what he stood for but chose to criticize him just because he is an igbo man.... Can you provide real names, pictures and testimonials of those you claimed Kanu destroyed....? I guess you can't but here you are condemning with no evidence....

garykoeman:
There is no difference between kanu action and boko haram motive.

None of you warn him when he supported the destruction of others.

Kanu actions destroyed families, business and you want is his freedom.

I bet if any of your relatives was affected by nnamdi terror u will not be in his support.


Hypocrite everywhere.

Don't mind that user, he/she is just been foolish.... That same person who made that post come 2027 will be the first to lament over Tinubu's terrible government....

angelboy01:
Just gather everyone for your family, friends and vote for him. Life no hard..

Read what you wrote and see if it makes sense. I feel pity reading comments like yours praising injustice and normalising terrorism....

garykoeman:
Has nnamdi kanu repented.

Did he ask for forgiveness from those he contributed to their demise and destruction.

Even in court he was busy raising his voice and abusing everyone.

Kanu should seek forgiveness and drop his agitation.

Then maybe he can be considered.

This is why Nigeria can never make any genuine progress... Many Nigerians like to lie to themselves knowing fully well that there is no unity, that Nigeria as a divisive entity can not work for their benefit. They know fully well that there is no way terrorism can end when those in government support it.... Yet they choose to live in denial that somehow those behind this government will grant them a free and fair election to vote them out....

loveth360:
Nigeria is not for Igbos, that's why we want a Separate country.

They release known terrorists, but tag a freedom fighter terrorist and jail him for life.


You will still see unfortunate people that will defend this.





God bless Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

I've included a link to the complete thread for any one interested to check so your weak attempt to push a malicious agenda here has failed....

helinues:
Is it today you people have been flip flopping about your arguments, shifting narration as how you like?

The screenshot which I attached contradicted with the epistle you quote even though you are the same writer. Are you having a divided mind about that issue that made you to disagree with your own self?

Pathetic! Keep deceiving, lying to yourself, keep supporting injustice and also clap for yourself while doing so.... These terrorists you are supporting will soon invade your village....

fuckJones:
Kanu is a a leader of a deadly terrorists group

Since majority of Nigerians folded their arms and did nothing to push for mandatory real-time electronic transmission of election results to be included in the recent electoral reform law, I've refrained from making any new posts lately having realised that Nigerians are not tired of Tinubu. The new bill passed in to law will only ensure a massive victory for Tinubu and APC over 2027 rigged election.... I decided to make this post for the sake of posterity to serve as a record to all those pretending to be naive towards the brutal injustice that Nigeria as a divisive entity breeds.... To the usual biased commentators who flood every post about Nnamdi Kanu, condemning him as a terrorist that deserves to be in jail even when he is not, will see this post and pretend not to accept the reality that the government they so cherish and love to defend on this platform is a terrorist enabler/facilitator.... An evil government that continues to pamper mass killers (Fulani Terrotists) in the name of rehabilitation while igbo freedom fighters like Nnamdi Kanu are illegally sentenced by criminal compromised judges like Justice Omotosho and jailed on trumped up terrorism charges....

Below is latest news as posted today by Punch Newspaper stating what your terrorist loving government is doing to end insecurity by freeing 100s of real deadly terrorists back into society to continue from where they stopped....

117 repentant terrorists complete rehabilitation programme

No fewer than 117 repentant terrorists from Borno State have completed the Disarmament, Rehabilitation and Reintegration programme under Operation Safe Corridor, as the initiative expands to the North West.

This is, as the Benue State Government has requested, the establishment of a DRR camp in the North Central region.

A statement issued on Thursday by the Director of Defence Information, Maj. Gen. Samaila Uba said the graduation was disclosed at a high-level stakeholders’ meeting convened by Defence Headquarters at the Nigerian Army Resource Centre to finalise modalities for transferring rehabilitated clients to national and state authorities for reintegration.

The Coordinator of Operation Safe Corridor, Brig. Gen. Y. Ali said the 117 graduates completed the DRR process at Mallam Sidi Camp in Borno State.

He described the development as a reflection of improved coordination between federal and state authorities on reception, monitoring and community reintegration.

The statement read in part, “Providing operational updates, the Coordinator disclosed that 117 clients from Borno State have successfully completed the DRR process at Mallam Sidi Camp, reflecting strengthened federal–state harmonisation in reception, monitoring and community reintegration.

“He also highlighted the expansion of OPSC to the North West, where a DRR camp established in February last year marked a significant stabilisation milestone. Ongoing engagements with Zamfara State aim to recalibrate the facility toward a comprehensive Victim Healing, Rehabilitation and Reintegration framework, integrating psychosocial recovery, community reconciliation, livelihood support and structured monitoring.”

In the North Central region, Ali disclosed that Benue State had formally requested the establishment of a DRR camp. He added that Defence Headquarters had assessed proposed sites and advised alignment with national infrastructure, security and sustainability standards before approval.

Participants at the meeting included representatives of federal ministries, the Office of the National Security Adviser, state governments, and neighbouring countries—Burkina Faso, Chad, Niger and Cameroon—as well as international partners such as the International Committee of the Red Cross and the International Organization for Migration, alongside Norway, the United Kingdom, the European Union and the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office.

Delivering the keynote address, the Chief of Defence Staff and Chairman of the OPSC National Steering Committee, Gen. Olufemi Oluyede, represented by the Chief of Defence Operations, Maj. Gen. Jamal Abdusalam said Operation Safe Corridor remained a key component of Nigeria’s security architecture.

He noted that while kinetic operations created space for stability, structured rehabilitation and reintegration were essential to sustain security gains and prevent a return to violence.

Nigeria’s counter-insurgency strategy combines military operations with the rehabilitation of surrendered fighters through Operation Safe Corridor, launched in 2016 to support disarmament, deradicalisation and reintegration. The programme is now being expanded beyond the North East as more states affected by insurgency and banditry seek DRR camps to support stabilisation and recovery efforts.

Hmm, well what you shared as a screenshot evidence does not prove that I support a US invasion of Nigeria as I made that comment as response to another user's comment.... This cheap attempt at blackmail by you only shows how mischievous you can be because in the same thread I said the following below....

Nigerians must understand and learn from history that powerful countries like US do not offer free military charity programs, there is always a hidden agenda to advance their foreign policy interests which most times may not be in the interest of the host country (Afganistan, Libia, Iraq et al). The bottomline here is that a lasting solution to Nigeria's security crisis won't come from supporting foreign powers to invade the country as it is guaranteed to fail and may make it worse due to inherent selfish political interests that will always be the true motive behind these foreign powers. If Nigerians truly want to address the issue of terrorism and other security challenges affecting the country, then deliberate actions like mass peaceful protests, civil disobedience like nationwide seat at home must be conducted to show their displeasures, the government of the day must be held accountable.

I will leave the link to the full thread for those who may want to confirm this below....

helinues:
With the screenshot below which you asked for, would that stop you from lying ridiculously tomorrow? Hell No

You people now lie without feeling any remorse, thinking the people you are lying to have a short memory

Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC) seem to be a phantom government agency that is only relevant on paper....

During the infamous TV interview that landed El Rufai in trouble, one key thing he made clear was that certain group of government officials with access to executive privileges were involved in mass illegal surveillance of Nigerians, illegally accessing their private calls, messages and browsing data, abusing privacy laws without any court order. Interestingly, what he said was also corroborated by Rotimi Amaechi in a post featured in the home page I read this morning. If truly this is going on then Nigerians are in a big mess!

Nigeria prides itself as a lawful nation, a responsible government should be seen to uphold the nation's laws as anything less amounts to tyranny.... It is indeed pathetic that since El Rufai made the revelation, no investigation has been launched to fish out those within the government engaged in this.... If Nigeria's privacy/data/cybercrime laws are been blatantly violented by certain high level individuals in the government including Nuhu Ribadu, shouldn't the security agencies investigate, go after and detain these individuals and not just El Rufai? Except these agencies are also complicit in such unlawful practices I see no reason why heads won't be rolling by now.... Personally, I am not surprised by the deafening silence since this is Tinubu's APC government but I think if this government still has any atom of shame left or regard for the law, it needs to come clean over how it's security agencies handle access to private communications data of Nigerians by conducting a thorough probe and all government officials or private third parties found to be engaging in such criminal data interceptions, hacking, illegal retrieval breaches be prosecuted.

Also, telecom service providers are not left out as they play a crucial role in enabling such mass scale breaches and abuse of user privacy on their networks by such government agents and political criminals. They need to up their game in securing customers sim services and networks to ensure their staff do not abuse access to customers data.... There is need for NCC to do more on Telecos data privacy regulatory requirements...

As 2027 Election draws near, Nigerians in demanding for electoral reforms must also push for stronger privacy oriented practices by government officials..... It will be unfair to arrest and detain El Rufai while rogue government officials implicated in illegal mass surveillance are allowed to continue.... Doing so amounts to double standards and a confirmation that Nigeria's government has no regard for the law.....

Don't mind that stupid user.... This is how Nigerians joked about everything and wasted a golden opportunity to stop this terrible APC government in 2023.... It is disturbing to see that Nigerians are about to make the same mistake again after all what they've gone through under this evil government.... 2027 Election is gone as long as Tinubu will be on the ballot except a massive protest erupts to disqualify him. Personally, I've never doubted these men in power and what they are capable of.... This is why I've continued to push that Nigerians will be better off starting a nationwide movement to impeachment, remove this government instead of trying to vote them out.... Let Nigerians especially the youthful population rise up and chart a new path that will lead to a total decentralisation of political/economic power or division of the country... No lasting peace or development can be achieved unless this is done....

Albinoflash:
ur own go spoil in Jesus name amen

I had made a detailed post in a previous thread in which I shared my opinion about the newly passed electoral amendment bill by Akpabio and other legislooters... As I predicted that these criminal gang called national assembly will do whatever it takes to ensure that they get their wish of removing "realtime" mandatory transmission of electoral results from the final Bill..... The only way it would've been stopped was if Nigerians rallied behind the "OCCUPYNASS" protest.... As usual, many Nigerians preferred to complain on social media then doing something about it, the protest failed due to low turnout....

Now that APC 2027 rigging machine has been activated by the successful passage of this bill, what will Nigerians do next?

Lisa Kanu in the video below dissects an interesting video of a Nigerian man criticising Peter Obi's campaign strategy.... She broke down salient points better than I could put in writing on why Nigerians especially the youthful population must take responsibility....Nigerians failed to push for favourable electoral reforms over their docility and cowardice......

Maybe if you were aborted or neutralised as part of US secret depopulation programs driven by the Kissinger report, you won't be here making silly comments. For your information, parts of Kissinger Report is still been used till this day by the US government in formulating foreign policy agendas especially against countries tagged as high risk against US national security.... If you read the posts I made earlier you should've known this. Keep deceiving yourself by welcoming your oppressors....

huptin:
Firstly, is this unchecked and irresponsible population growth not causing enough problems to Nigeria already?

Secondly, Do you consider that this memo was written when the US had not started exploring oil from its land, today it produces more than 10 times Nigeria's oil.

We welcome the US, you can continue crying.

The injustice done to Nnamdi Kanu is a testament to why Nigeria can never progress as a nation.... There is no doubt that those who benefit from one Nigeria, who believe they own Nigeria will never allow the truth which Nnamdi Kanu stood for to triumph.... But they failed because in jailing him the whole world can see that he was right that Nigeria as a country was founded on the basis of injustice and oppression.... A divisive entity created to never allow the prosperity of his people to prevail. I believe that Nnamdi Kanu will at the appointed time regain his freedom...... Nigeria as a country has sealed its own fate of damnation ....

@nairalanda1, you are still parroting the same nonsense you did over fuel subsidy removal that made no difference but instead made the situation worse for Nigerians.... It was you that went about this platform bullying anyone against fuel subsidy removal parroting government propaganda that Nigeria will save money, fuel importation will stop, excessive borrowing will reduce but after it was removed no one has been able to account for what savings made from fuel subsidy removal was used for, borrowing increased and Nigeria still imports petrol.... Now you are back again to champion another draconian increase in electricity tariff. How much does your president, governors and legislative members other big entities that are big debtors to electricity companies pay for electricity? How transparent are discos and gencos?
You will in your usual antics go silent when electricity tariff increases are done and nothing improves. As I told you back then when we clashed before fuel subsidy was removed that Nigeria's problem was never the subsidy scheme itself but systemic pervasive corruption deeply rooted in government... Nothing will improve unless that is addressed... Demanding Nigerians pay more under this circumstances is inhumane and callous....

nairalanda1:
Only if people are prepared to pay a cost reflective tarrif.

Before you say 'paying for darkness'...we all paid cost relfective tarrifs for GSM services, which in the first four years if not longer of the thing were awful. For a while one could not call other networks from your phone (which is partly why people have multiple sims , even thought the problem has been sorted ages ago), even calling NITEL lines was tough (especially since at that time banks and government offices relied on nitel lines)...and internet when it first came was this terrible GPRS...when countries had switched to 3g by then

But because we paid cost reflective tarrifs, profit and investment flowed in, and things improved.

We refuse to pay cost reflective tarrif, and even a significant portion of people don't pay for power, and somehow we expect light?

Keep deceiving yourself so because you are not seeing some judges open their mouth to sing along makes it okay. Is `On Your Mandate' Nigeria's new national anthem? Can't you see that judges were okay with playing the song to declare total loyalty to Tinubu? Anyone still deceiving himself that Nigeria's legislative and judicial arms of government are independent under Tinubu needs a hard knock on the head....

Christmyhope:
The judges only stood in respect to the president coming to the podium as the president band played along. None of the judges sangs along. As for the National Assembly,I will not be surprised if they sang along with the president band but I didn't see any parting lips.....

Tinubu is too desperate so Nigerians wishing for change should prepare to fight for it.... I've said over and over that Tinubu and Akpabio will never allow mandatory real-time electronic transmission of election results even if it means shutting down the national grid to ensure it never works.... The battle before Nigerians over 2027 election can only be won if majority of Nigerians are ready to die to liberate themselves.....

Tenses:
Are seriously asking this question?

Did tinubu not credit 300 billion to Makinde the Oyo governor who's not even his party member.

Did you even know this until Fayose exposed it.

You underestimate how far tinubu can go to get reelected.

Simple! Because your sensitive public institutions including the judiciary have all been compromised and under Tinubu’s control....

Christmyhope:
Why should Nigerians go on protest in order to remove the president?

The surest way to stop Tinubu and his party APC is through a nationwide revolutionary protest to force his removal and disqualification from participating in the next election....

Heffalump:
From the way it's going, there might not be election in 2027 due to anarchy. I pray Tinubu won't cause civil war to break out in Nigeria. He has the penchant for committing evil and is ready to throw anybody under the bus.

When I heard him say he won't sit down and watch someone eject him from office, from that moment I knew APC has buried democracy in Nigeria. Tinubu actually wants war. Nigerians should be prepared because I don't like what I'm seeing to come.

At no point did I support US military presence in Nigeria, you can proceed to prove this by sharing a screenshot of my comment showing support for US military occupation. Regarding your accusation of mischievous behaviour, I think you should be looking at yourself in the mirror to see who is really mischievous because you backtracked on your own words of temporarily suspending support for Tinubu and his terrible government.....

helinues:
Stop being clever by quarter. You created the thread below to taunt me about temporary withdrawing my support due to this same insecurity, now that the USA army that you people wanted badly are in Nigeria, you are now shifting narration questioning their presence.

That's deliberate mischievousness

https://www.nairaland.com/8576429/take-helinues-temporary-suspension

From some comments made here, I feel sorry for Nigerians. If as a people you can not take responsibility to hold an erring government accountable or form a united front to remove such government then you have no one to blame as the situation will only get worse.... It is bad enough to complain and not do any thing to change your situation but to support a USA military invasion of your country knowing fully well that USA is not your friend is the worst form of self-hate and betrayal.... To know how deep, sinister and evil the US foreign policy directives are towards countries such as Nigeria, read more below.....

It was Henry Kissinger, as Nixon’s National Security Advisor, who oversaw the production of an infamous memo that turned population control into a weapon in the Cold War. Even today, his argument that America’s national security depends upon waging war on people continues to be used to justify the promotion of abortion, sterilization and contraception around the world. National Security Study Memorandum 200 (NSSM 200), as the memo was called, was more commonly known as “The Kissinger Report” after its author. The 250-page report, a joint effort of the NSA, CIA, State, and Pentagon was kept secret—for good reason—until it was finally declassified in 1989. Believing that people mean power, and worried about the demographic decline of the West, these practitioners of realpolitik unapologetically sought to engineer a fertility decline among more prolific peoples. And they were fully prepared to deceive and strongarm other countries into doing so. The Kissinger Report warned that, “If present fertility rates were to remain constant, the 1974 population of 3.9 billion would increase to 7.8 billion by the year 2000 and rise to a theoretical 103 billion by 2075.”[italics added] Having conjured up this impossible flood of humanity, what consequences did these “secret” agencies foresee for America?

The report argued that rapid population growth is a security threat because it would lead to competition for the raw materials needed for the US economy, and provide opportunities for the Soviet Union and China to promote communist revolutions and recruit client states. Thus was population control declared to be a weapon in the Cold War. The immediate result was a huge jump in population control spending by the US and its allies. Dozens of countries around the world were identified as targets, especially those which were considered to be vulnerable to communist insurrection, such as Thailand and the Philippines, and those sitting on top of valuable metals, including the nations comprising the southern tier of Africa. Population control, by preserving our access to strategic raw materials and slowing the spread of communism, would eliminate future threats to US national security. In this way it would preserve America’s global advantage in arms, wealth, and all-around geopolitical muscle.

Most Americans think of their country as a force for good in the world. The Kissinger Report has the US doing the opposite, promoting violence, weakening democracy, and hindering the economic growth of competitors. Instead of promoting freedom it encourages governments to intervene, even violently, in the most private decisions of families. Instead of encouraging democracy, it imposes population control on sovereign nations. Instead of promoting open economies it hobbles economic growth by reducing human numbers. Darkness always hates the light. It is not surprising that the originators of this report not only wanted it kept secret, but also wanted it carried out by surrogates like the U.N. Population Fund and the World Bank. The involvement of such “multilateral” agencies, the study reasoned, would help to conceal the US role and purpose in implementing such programs. “It is vital that the effort to develop and strengthen a commitment on the part of the LDC [less-developed countries] leaders not be seen by them as an industrialized country policy to keep their strength down or to reserve resources for us by the ‘rich’ countries.”

The “key countries” targeted by NSSM 200 for population control were those likely to grow into regional powers, those rich in natural resources, or both. Brazil, which “clearly dominates” Latin America in demographic significance, has the potential to exert its influence far beyond its borders. Its expanding population suggests a “growing power status for Brazil in Latin America and on the world scene over the next 25 years." In Africa Nigeria was singled out: “Already the most populous country on the continent, with an estimated 55 million people in 1970, Nigeria’s population by the end of this century is projected to number 135 million.32 This suggests a growing political and strategic role for Nigeria, at least in Africa south of the Sahara.” Henry Kissinger had his way. The Kissinger Report was formally adopted as US foreign policy by National Security Decision Memorandum 314 (NSDM 314), which was signed on 26 November 1975 by Kissinger’s successor as National Security Advisor, Brent Scowcroft, on behalf of President Gerald Ford. The war on people was off and running. A follow-up report, issued in 1976 by the Interagency Task Force on Population Policy for the Under Secretaries Committee of the NSC, asks—and suggests answer to—some disturbing questions:

- Would food be considered an instrument of national power? (Yes.)

- On what basis should such food resources then be provided? (Only to countries with population control programs in place.)

- Will we be forced to make choices as to whom we can reasonably assist, and if so, should population efforts be a criterion for such assistance? (Yes.)

- Are mandatory population control measures appropriate for the US and/or others? (Maybe.)
- Is the US prepared to accept food rationing to help people who can’t/won’t control their population growth? (No.)

The 1976 report also virtually endorsed strong-arm tactics to carry out population control programs: Population programs have been particularly successful where leaders have made their positions clear, unequivocal and public, while maintaining discipline down the line from national to village levels, marshaling government workers (including police and military), doctors and motivators to see that population policies are well administered and executed. . . In some cases, strong direction has involved incentives such as payment to acceptors for sterilization, or disincentives such as giving low priorities in the allocation of housing and schooling to those with larger families. Such direction is the sine qua non of an effective program.

The NSC report might have been describing the enforcement mechanism of China’s soon-to-be announced one-child policy, which for decades relied upon a “well-administered and executed” program of forced abortion, forced sterilization, and forced contraception to eliminate excess births. At the time, India was in the midst of its infamous sterilization campaign, in which 6.5 million men were vasectomized. The NSC report, while secretly commending India’s program, strongly cautioned against public praise. “We recommend that US officials refrain from public comment on forced-pace measures such as those currently under active consideration (!) in India … [because that] might have an unfavorable impact on existing voluntary programs.” The 1976 report also recommended ways to silence the rising chorus of developing world criticism directed at the new US foreign policy. To answer the charges of cultural imperialism, locals were to be hired to flak the new population programs. To avoid the appearance of neo-colonialism, US population control funding was to be routed through international organizations like the UNFPA, as was done in China, or to private groups like the IPPF and Family Health International. And, first and foremost, US officials were never to use phrases like population control or birth control. The report cynically advised US officials to pretend a complete lack of interest in anything resembling population control: “[A]void the language of ‘birth control’ in favor of ‘family planning’ or ‘responsible parenthood,’ with the emphasis being placed on child spacing in the interests of the health of child and mother …“

The programs themselves were also to be repackaged. To disarm critics in the developing world, population control programs were to be represented as “reproductive health care,” “maternal health care,” and even “child survival” programs. As one USAID-funded group advised at the time, population projects that “focus too narrowly on family planning as a solution” raise suspicions among host country officials. The solution they went on to propose is still in use today: Population projects were to be “Integrate[d] …with maternal and child health care delivery.”

Both the tactics and the rationalization for population control laid out in the Kissinger Report and its follow-ons continue in use today. For over 50 years the population controllers have carried out a gigantic, costly, and inhumane program to reduce human numbers. They have abused women, targeted racial and religious minorities, undermined primary health care, and aborted countless babies. They even embraced the most brutal birth control campaign in human history: China’s infamous one-child policy.

Tinubu can be stopped only if Nigerians unite and push a massive nationwide protest to demand for his impeachment and disqualification from participating in the next election....

OneCandleAway:
But at this point he can't be impeached. He has the national Assembly under his armpits literally. That's why some things you don't even start it, because to reverse it will be very tough. He should never have been voted in. Now he will even want a successor he can control. And he knows he can't control el rufai, kwakanso. His thirst for power is just insatiable.

Now that over 100 US military soldiers are in Nigeria.....For those foolishly supporting America's military occupation of Nigeria over a falsely promoted notion of "Christian Genocide" when in reality both Christians, traditionalists and Muslims are been killed.... Read a detailed analysis of the Kissinger Report below regarding what the US has in store for Nigeria.....

The Kissinger Report: Declassified U.S. Plan To Control Nigeria’s Population, Resources And How Tinubu Is Helping Finish The Job

In 1974, deep inside the corridors of U.S. power, a secret policy paper was drafted that would quietly shape decades of American engagement with Nigeria. Known as the Kissinger Report or National Security Study Memorandum 200 (NSSM 200), it was no ordinary diplomatic note; it was a blueprint.

Commissioned by then-Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, the report identified Nigeria as one of 13 key countries whose growing populations and resource wealth had the potential to affect U.S. economic and security interests.

"If Nigeria’s people grew too numerous, they might consume too much of their own oil, gas, and mineral resources, which Washington considered essential for its own prosperity...."

The report concluded that population control was not just a humanitarian concern; it was a matter of U.S. national security.

At the time, Nigeria’s population was just over 60 million. The report projected rapid growth, a trend it saw not as an achievement of life but as a logistical problem.

Unchecked demographic expansion, it warned, could create instability, divert resources toward domestic needs, and reduce the flow of vital commodities, mainly oil, to the United States.

The solution proposed? Utilise foreign aid, health programmes, and development partnerships to promote fertility reduction and slow population growth in high-risk countries, such as Nigeria.

This wasn’t thoughtfulness. It was resource management, not for Nigeria’s benefit, but for America’s.

"The memo touted increased U.S. funding for population-related programmes as both necessary and urgent"

Today, the legacy lives on, but with a new, corporate twist.

The Kissinger Report framed foreign assistance as a strategic lever. Aid could be used to encourage population policies, which would involve fewer births and more resources available for export.

"Its soft imperialism; disguising resource control as humanitarian outreach, and reducing sovereign nations to the role of resource warehouses for the West."

The plan includes a smaller, weaker Nigeria that is easier to influence, easier to bargain with, and less able to challenge foreign control of its oil, minerals, and markets.

An Investigation by West Africa Weekly reports that Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Pfizer, CIFF, USAID, UNFPA, the World Bank, GAVI, and others are flooding sub-Saharan Africa, especially Nigeria, with long-acting contraceptives like Sayana Press injectables, implants, and IUDs. These are cheap, subsidised, and targeted almost to low- and lower-middle-income African nations.

While branded as empowerment, this is a practice fraught with coercion. Contracts include fertility targets and quotas, and programme design is centralised in Western capitals; African researchers and communities are often sidelined.

"They call it ‘choice,’ but the only option they push is long-acting contraception. That’s not a choice. That’s pressure. And again: it’s colonisation through health care. Africans are not driving these programmes, they are driving Africans...."

The article also highlights ethical lapses where women are being fitted with IUDs or injectables during emergencies or childbirth, with minimal counselling, education on side effects, or informed consent.

Now, in 2025, Nigeria’s population has surged past 220 million. The youth population is massive, yet unemployment is staggering, inflation is eating away at wages, and the naira is in freefall.

Then, President Bola Tinubu, a puppet, entered, whose regime was never to break this cycle, but to deepen Nigeria in the very vulnerabilities the Kissinger Report counted on.

Tinubu’s swift adoption of subsidy removals and currency devaluation follows the playbook of international financial institutions influenced by U.S. policy. These measures have deepened poverty and destroyed domestic purchasing power, making Nigeria more dependent on foreign loans and trade.

Despite local shortages and refining gaps, crude oil continues to be exported in massive quantities. At the same time, refined fuel is imported at premium prices, keeping Nigeria tethered to global market volatility.

His administration has courted Western oil and gas companies with tax breaks and incentives, even as communities in the Niger Delta suffer from pollution, displacement, and economic neglect.

In effect, Tinubu’s policies are helping Washington and its allies secure the very resource flows the Kissinger Report demanded, while leaving Nigerians to bear the economic fallout.

"When Washington framed population growth as a threat, it wasn’t to Nigeria’s development, it was to U.S. consumption...."

Under Tinubu, the structural imbalances remain as resources flow out, debt obligations pile up, and domestic capacity remains stunted.

"The Kissinger Report’s two central goals, to keep Nigeria politically stable enough to produce resources but economically weak enough to remain dependent, are arguably being fulfilled right now..."

And the hypocrisy is glaring. The U.S. celebrates its population growth as an economic strength. Still, it treats Nigeria’s youth bulge as a destabilising danger, especially when those young people demand that their oil wealth benefit them first.

Tinubu’s defenders claim his reforms are painful but necessary. But reforms designed in Washington and rubber-stamped in Abuja have a track record where they deepen dependency, privatise profit, and socialise pain.

The Kissinger Report may be 51 years old, but its worldview is alive, and Nigeria’s value lies in what it can ship out, not in what it can build at home. The risk now is that Tinubu’s alignment with foreign economic dictates will lock Nigeria into another generation of underdevelopment and ensure that Washington’s Cold War-era dream of a compliant, resource-rich Nigeria never dies.

The real threat to Nigeria was never its population growth. It was, and remains, the willingness of its leaders to manage that growth in ways that serve outside powers first.

If Nigeria’s leaders don’t break this pattern, the country’s future will remain a footnote in someone else’s strategy paper.

Regarding NSA Ribadu, the news is still fresh as more will be revealed in due time....

lionshare:
Did you fact-check the ₦250B claim and the supposed thallium sulphate import by the NSA—or is Nasir El-Rufai now your personal oracle of truth?

Yes this is why there is no other option except Nigerians want to continue the lie that Tinubu and his desperate government will some how foolishly allow a fair election to vote them out....

AMINDA:
You can't put anything past a government paying 250 billion per governor for them to decamp and withholding the local government allocation of an entire state where he comes from while millions go hungry, all in a bid to subdue the governor and get him to cooperate.

I've warned Nigerians severally that the man called Tinubu is too desperate to be allowed to participate in the upcoming 2027 election. I've also in several posts made here advised Nigerians to unite, push for Tinubu's impeachment and removal from office instead of trying to remove his government by voting in the next election as it won't work.

There will be no election but selection in 2027 because Tinubu destroyed Nigeria's democracy through the enthronement of a one-party state. Apart from several other stringent desperate measures been put in place towards the 2027 election, El Rufai's latest revelation is yet another example that lays credence to the desperation of this government to hold on to power by all means necessary even if it means killing all Nigerians. I do not understand why many Nigerians don't learn from history but choose to continue doing the same thing by participating in rigged elections and expect a different result. I had in a previous discussion here, made the point that all those crying for mandatory electronic transmission of results knowing fully well that Akpabio was a product of electoral fraud were wasting their time or were willfully delusional to think the APC majority rubber stamp 10th national assembly headed by Akpabio truly cared about making laws that will guarantee a free and fair election in 2027..... They don't!

I've read so many posts been made on this forum ever since the news regarding El Rufai's thallium sulphate revelation against Nuhu Ribadu broke, some calling for his resignation while others are demanding that he explain to Nigerians why such deadly chemical weapon was imported into the country as if such people making these posts are naive not to know what happens during election season in Nigeria. Is it not obvious that if accusation been made by El Rufai is true, why else will Ribadu import such deadly weapon if not to advance their nefarious plan for 2027. There is no glaring indication that such weapon will be used on deadly Fulani Islamic terrorists that the government continues to cover up and grant peace deals. This is a government that thrives on lies, impunity, propaganda and illegality so just as Nigeria's tax reform laws were blatantly forged without anyone taking responsibility, Ribadu will face no pressure or negative consequences over this revelation, it will be buried like other criminal actions before this.

Nigerians will do themselves a big favour if they start now to demand for Tinubu's impeachment, removal and disqualification from participating in the next election. Except you want to live in denial, Tinubu will do nothing to prosecute these criminal cases involving top members of his government, neither will he support a free and fair election for Nigerians to vote him out of office. The ruling party in it desperation to clinch to power will do all to ensure that no political opposition structure will be spared as it moves aggressively to neutralise it using all means including the possible deployment of such deadly chemicals like thallium sulphate on popular opposition figures and human rights advocate so as to ensure Tinubu and other candidates of the party go unopposed to win massively in 2027 general elections. 

Nigerians have a golden opportunity to remove Tinubu now and not wait till APC perfects it's evil plans for 2027. If Nigerians are serious, now is the time to start an indefinite nationwide peaceful protest demanding for Tinubu's impeachment, removal and dissolution of the federal government to pave the way for a national conference and a national referendum towards decentralisation of political/economic power or outright division of the country. Tinubu has consolidated so much power and weaken institutions to the point no election can stop the continuation of his government except he is forced not to participate....

If Nigerians fail to do any thing then they will have no one to blame for the terrible consequences that will continue the destruction of their lives and future. Since 2023 Tinubu's government was sworn in, it was under this government, Nigerians suffered the worst economic crisis with many dying over the ever increasing cost of living. Under this government, Nigeria's security crisis spiralled out of control with 100s killed or kidnapped every week while the perpetrators are offered peace deals. Under this government, Nigeria lost it's sovereignity as foreign powers like US and France assumed control of Nigeria's strategic governing responsibilities. Under this government, Nigeria's constitution was blatantly violented as tax bills were fraudulently forged and passed as laws.
There is nothing good that has come out or can come from allowing this evil government to continue. Nuhu Ribadu's thallium sulphate saga will be one out of so many other deadly precedents that will continue to happen until Nigerians decide to do away with their self imposed dillusion, rise up and end this vicious cycle once and for all....

You've gone back to your usual antics of half truths,. Was Nnamdi Kanu really violent in his pursuit for self-determination which is his right....? How many times did Kanu attack any one violently if not security agencies that actually started the violence by attacking IPOB members for conducting peaceful protests. If you truly believe that Nigeria is an unworkable union why are you still condemning Nnamdi Kanu? You have a country where a large section practice sharia laws that are alien to your constitution, how will you still believe that you can somehow salvage the situation when you know Fulani sharia loving cabal in the North will not stop their jihadists conquest until sharia spreads to other regions of the country. What you call a constitution that you mentioned in accusing Nnamdi Kanu as a terrorist has been reduced to a tissue paper by your northern Jihadist sharia neighbours yet you are silent, unable to call them out but it is Kanu that is your problem.

I see that you still parrot Tinubu's praises and admire his terrible government, even as it continues to pamper terrorists and cover up mass killings of Nigerians...... As I said in earlier post, your continued scheme of supporting injustice on this platform even when you know better is an indictment on your character, how mischievous one can be even to his own detriment....

WizardOfNG:
Stop it right there. Yes I believe the union of Nigeria is redundant and unworkable unless our differences are recognised and accommodates to create a system that works to assist all Nigerians develop to their full potentials.

Violent pursuit of secession, which is terrorism, is what I disapprove of that Kanu is guilty of 💯%. Simple.

The only legal options open to Kanu is for him to put pressure on Igbo legislators to move the motion for the inclusion of a secession clause in our constitution reversing the status quo where such is outlawed and an act of treason according to the 1999 constitution .

As long as Kanu has rejected that option then he should accept the consequences of his violent and constitutionally outlawed push for secession.

Hmmm so you @WizardOfNG made this comment? You know all this about Nigeria being an unworkable union yet you were one of the most vocal against Nnamdi Kanu last year when he was jailed unjustly for trying to liberate his people. You continued in your scheme by attacking and making jokes on any thread I made towards what you are saying here.... What you and many others do on this platform by peddling lies and ridiculing those who speak against injustice due to tribalism or selfish political interests, knowing fully well that what they are saying is right speaks volume on how mischievous one can be even to his own detriment....

WizardOfNG:
Not only must it stop, it has to be followed with political and constitutional reforms so that a new Nigeria rises ensuring we are never in this situation again.

Union must not be forced. We have to accept the critically vital concept that nationhood will only be successful if the people within said nation broadly want the same things.

When they are irreconcilably different, with several major areas of fundamental and contentious disagreement, especially with such being ethno-religious in the case of Nigeria, then that nation is doomed for sure

Destruction is Nigeria's sure fate unless Nigerians recognise the problem and move to address it instead of continuing to bury their head in the sand in reverential worship of 'one Nigeria'.

I watched the video above and read the news regarding El Rufai (Fulani Man) boldly claiming that him and some other people he referred to as "we" have been wire tapping, listening to NSA Nuhu Ribadu's phone calls and reading his messages in flagrant disregard of the law on privacy, national security as such brazen act if found guilty should amount to terrorism. I was not surprised at the deafening silence from security agencies and top officials/politicians of the APC government, no immediate action taken to detain him, condemn or charge him with treason. I am also not surprised by the utterances of many online commentators of this forum, downplaying the issue and even absolving El-Rufai of any crime. If it was an Igbo man that made such incriminating statement on national TV he would've been crucified by now. All hell would've been let loose as DSS and other security agencies would've arrested him, all his family members and friends.

I wrote Nigeria off as a dead failed British colonial experiment, the day Nnamdi Kanu was jailed by an illegal court trial, falsely accused of terrorism while videos of real deadly Fulani terrorists actively been granted peace deals were circulating all over social media platforms. As long as El Rufai is a Fulani man and not an Igbo man, he will face no investigation, arrest or prosecution over this phone wire tapping scandal instead it will be buried just like other cases. Even if the security agencies conduct the usual drama of pretending to show that they are working by arresting him, he will still regain his freedom after some weeks when the government know that the issue has died down.

Regarding the issue of sim wire-tapping, I believe that NIN linking to sim card by Ministry of Communication under the leadership of Isa Pantami paved the way for easy tracking and compromise Nigeria's telecom networks users privacy, giving powerful politicians like El Rufau and his associate such criminal privileges. What El-Rufai said is only an indication of Fulani dominance over Nigeria as it means that Nigeria's security framework is indirectly under the control of a powerful political cabal that even the president can not tame. Any one still sleeping, deceiving him or herself about rule of law, constitution and equality in Nigeria should see El Rufai'a revelation as a wake up call.....

Northern politicians like El Rufai and many of his Fulani brothers are above the law as long as one Nigeria exists....
