EVERYTHING you need to know about #Nigeria, has been said in the way we have reacted since POTUS threatened us.
10.11.2025 13:28 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0The reaction of the Nigerian State and its cheerleaders to the CPC designation and the threat of military invasion is a completely instructive moment.
The negligence and lax inattention to detail is laid bare for the entire planet to see!
#Lifeless
In this episode, @ndonuoha.bsky.social and I discuss the recent designation of #Nigeria as a 'Country of Particular Concern' by #America, its implications, and how it could affect migratory patterns.

A lot has been said about the optics of Trump redesignating #Nigeria as a CPC, and what led to it.
I haven't seen too much about the diplomatic failures on Nigeria's part, and the withering of our foreign service that led us to this pass.
So that's what I've opted to talk about. bit.ly/47DwsA7
Five years ago today, Nigeria's military killed peaceful protesters in high-brow Lagos. As I write for Financial Nigeria today, the Lekki Massacre had an economic impact. bit.ly/4o0DHcs
Business Times also wrote an analysis in the same vein, and quoted me. bit.ly/43viYVJ
I just saw a video of Niger State's governor pretending to pray in a church. 🙄
Same wossup group as a million Bibles being distributed.
The truth is that #Nigeria's elite don't care about Nigerians being killed. They only care that they look bad in the eyes of their Western overlords.
In this episode, @ndonuoha.bsky.social and I discuss the current economic challenges facing various countries, particularly #Britain and #Nigeria.
We explored the implications of these issues on politics, job markets, and AI. We also delved into the impact of geopolitical factors on supply chains.
Manchester United legend, Gary Neville, made a video that set off a political storm in the UK especially about immigrants.
But forget all you're hearing. It's time for a more nuanced discussion...
A week ago today, I was on #Jasiri on News Central TV to discuss #Nigeria's "independence".
What does it really mean?

Today is the 58th anniversary of the #AsabaMassacre. We will never forget.
God rest the dead.

Perhaps it's what we reward as a people, but in #Nigeria we have built a country so devoid of compassion, that in 2025, some people think it's a flex to DELIBERATELY interrupt power supply in the name of industrial action, not caring about ripple effects.

The ultimate expression of power is restraint.
The ability to constrain yourself from using the power you have.
And there's an element of self-preservation in it.
Simply put, "Will I be OK if my adversaries use this power in the same way if the shoe is on the other foot?"
Benue State's pastoral conflict is now a relentless, year-round crisis, intensified by security drawdowns and soaring fatalities since 2009.

@ndonuoha.bsky.social and I discuss the recent resignation of Angela Rayner and the implications of her departure on the Labour Party. Then we emphasise the importance of engagement in politics and the need for African expats to voice their concerns to their MPs.

Trying to rent in #Nigeria is like: "The price is three kidneys, your firstborn child, and a solemn vow to never use the AC."
But the agent will call you unserious for asking questions.
Back when public discourse was still sane, @elnathanjohn.bsky.social wrote an article about the Nigerian god and got roundly insulted.
Well, he was right.
Nigerians, especially #Nigeria's elite, do not really believe in God. They wouldn't behave as if this were the only life if they did.

29.08.2025 13:08 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0In economic terms, #Nigeria's kidnappers in the last year have extracted more value, ₦2.56 billion up from ₦1.05 billion, for fewer people kidnapped, 4722, down from 7568, over the previous year.
That's some decent business optimisation.
Yesterday, @ndonuoha.bsky.social and I explored the national pride and the politics of flags in #Britain, inspired by #OperationRaiseTheColours, which appears to have been co-opted by far-right groups. We also discussed education disparities and class systems.

2,100 years ago, the Romans crucified the surviving slaves from Spartacus's army. Around 6000 of them. Every 100ft along the entire 200km from Capua to Rome.
THAT is state capacity.
#Nigeria is in the throes of a major food crisis, and this was brought to the fore by a recent report in @premiumtimesng.bsky.social.
In this piece, I lay out the lie of the land and argue that a lot needs to be done, urgently.
"Misdeeds".
The most worrying thing about how #Israel has conducted its violence in #Gaza, and the free pass its war crimes have gotten from the West, is that other bad actors will use these very excuses in future conflicts to justify similar behaviours.

Need I say more? #Nigeria #society #culture
In this episode, @ndonuoha.bsky.social finally got me to discuss @kemibadenochmp.bsky.social, and her resentment of #Nigeria. We explored the implications of her remarks on identity politics, her strategy, and the broader context of racism in immigration policies.

It's the holiday season.
Unlike back in the day, help from relatives is no longer as readily available. Harder if you've japaed.
Worse, today's kids don't know how to be bored, and finding activities for them is costly.
@ndonuoha.bsky.social and I have a moan...
One striking similarity between #Nigeria and #England is that in sports, especially football, it's our girls that do us proud.
Baba Eagles and Three Pussycats, don't win anything, but make all the noise because they have front tail.
