NIGERIA LEADERSHIP CRISIS AND THE ECONOMIC INDICATION OF A FAILLING STATE

Nigeria has been plagued by a leadership crisis for many years.  This crisis is characterized by a lack of competent, honest, and visionary leaders.  As a result, the country has experienced widespread poverty, corruption, and insecurity. There are a number of factors that have contributed to Nigeria’s leadership crisis. One factor is the country’s large population.  Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa, with over 200 million people.  This makes it difficult to govern effectively and to ensure that all citizens have a voice. Another factor is the country’s history of military rule.  Nigeria has been ruled by military leaders for more than half of its independence.  This has led to a culture of impunity and a lack of respect for the rule of law. Finally, Nigeria’s leadership crisis is also due to the country’s ethnic and religious diversity.  Nigeria is a multi-ethnic and multi-religious country, with over 250 ethnic groups and over 50 different religions.  This diversity has made it difficult to build a strong national identity and to unite the country behind a common version. The leadership crisis in Nigeria has had a devastating impact on the country.  It has led to widespread poverty, corruption, and insecurity.  It has also made it difficult to attract foreign investment and to develop the country’s economy. There are a number of things that can be done to address Nigeria’s leadership crisis. One important step is to strengthen the country’s democratic institutions.  This includes ensuring that elections are free and fair, that the media is free and independent, and that the judiciary is independent. Another important step is to promote good governance.  This includes fighting corruption, improving transparency, and ensuring that the government is accountable to the people. Finally, it is important to address the root causes of Nigeria’s leadership crisis.  This includes addressing the country’s poverty, inequality, and ethnic and religious divisions. Addressing Nigeria’s leadership crisis will not be easy.  It will require a concerted effort from all Nigerians.  However, it is essential if the country is to achieve its full potential. The possibilities of the country achieving its full potential remains a mirage considering the wicked acts of corruption, bureaucratic and administrative manipulations, subject to the major factors of economic growth and development. Nigerian government officials are wicked. For instance,They invested heavily in the Dangote group on an individual basis. The group borrowed US $3 billion to build the refinery, which evidently cost US $3.8 billion to build.

Fraud No 1 - The refinery was revalued in paper to US $13.9 billion when it was 70% completed.

Fraud No 2 - NNPC led by Mele Kyari, the statutory industry regulator and affirmatively a competitor with three moribund refineries in Port Harcourt, Warri and Kaduna, decided without public knowledge or input, to buy 20% shares in Dangote Refinery. 20% shares is US $2.8 Billion.

The total amount required to revamp Warri and Port Harcourt refineries is US $2.65 billion. The question here is, what is the special interest in Dangote Refinery?

Fraud No 3 - The president of Nigeria hurriedly commissioned a refinery that is only 80% completed. The refinery may not be functional until January 2024. NNPC, the industry regulator had advised the House of Representatives Appropriation Committee that the Dangote Refinery would be up and Running in March 2023 hence there would be no need to make provisions for Subsidy in 2023/24 Budget. Unfortunately, the Refinery is not ready and there are no provisions for subsidy in the budget.

At the commissioning of the half-baked Refinery, Emefiele, the famous Central Bank Governor, announced that Dangote had paid 70% of the loan he took for the Refinery. I am forced to ask, how did a Refinery that is not operational raise money to pay 70%? The Nigeria stock exchange does not have any record of share sales in relation to Dangote Refinery other than the NNPC investment.

Fraud No 4 -When Dangote came into cement production, the government brought in  a fictitious quality standard designed to restrict cement supply to his company and cut off all imports. The same style has now been adopted to grant Dangote the exclusive right to supply petrol to NNPC at a price determined by Dangote and his co- travelers.

Conclusion - the subsidy removal was planned and agreed by the government as a pre-condition for Dangote to build a refinery when the Western world is moving away from Fossil Fuel. The removal of the subsidy is to maximize profits for the owners of Dangote Refinery ie Mr. Buhari, Mele Kyari, Emefiele, and so on. The list is long. They do not care about the common man. They forgot that there is no social welfare in Nigeria. They can tell us stories about loans and palliatives to deceive us as usual. What they do not know is that Nigeria is about to be set ablaze!!!

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu: The real fact about his "RE-ARREST" by the Nigerian government

 

First it must be cleared that, “He was not arrested in the UK or Brazil or Czech Republic. He was not crated either, contrary to speculations,” again the next question is, WAS MAZI NNAMDI ACTUALLY "REARRESTED"?...



MNK was advised by his international consultants and legal experts to hand himself over to the Nigerian govt through the interpol, who are in charge of his safety throughout the period he'll be in detention of the zoo.
The international community is about to ask Nigeria to conduct a referendum, but MNK needs to clear his name & his organization first from the terrorism charges placed against him by the Nigerian govt, as the international community cannot oversee a democratic referendum with someone who is still proscribed by the country he's seeking right for self-determination from.
This is why they have attempted to assassinate his lawyer, knowing he has a lot of evidence to use & win the govt in the court of law.
Remember, in the past few months, IPOB has made revelations about thousands of dollars being paid to hire international consultancy firms, those firms owe IPOB credible services.
Believe it or not, MNK wouldn't have just been given Biafra while he remains abroad broadcasting on Radio Biafra. International diplomacy have rules.
During his years in exile, remember he's been to the United Nations, he's met several international diplomats.
Remember he said few months ago that he will lead the battle from the frontline, the battle has begun. Remember he has been silent since the past 2 weeks.
If you think a figure as popular as Mazi Nnamdi Kanu can just be "rearrested" by Nigerian govt, then think again.
Many Biafrans needed the presence of their leader in Nigeria for the final push to freedom, their dreams have come true.
As it stands, Biafrans may be emotionally drained over the news, but in the next few days, they will bounce back stronger.
The whole world is watching.
Biafra + Oduduwa loading...97%.
STAY STRONG BIAFRANS, THE SUN IS ABOUT TO RISE AGAIN.

MOHAMADU BUHARI is a virus

According to RENO OMOKRI via his facebook account,General Buhari is a virus. The former aid to former president Goodluck Jonathan, In his analysis of president BUHARI's Broadcast to Nigerians  "General Buhari is himself like a virus. He does not know what he is doing. If you say you want to protect the life of Nigerians, then how come your conditional cash transfer is lopsided towards the North, were over 80% of beneficiaries are located" In his article Titled, A Broadcast of Noise, Not News.. He stated that the roadcast was empty and shallow. The full text of the analysis reads...
General Buhari’s roadcast was empty and shallow. He told us nothing new. He did not tell us what specifically he has done, is doing and will do to ease life for Nigerians during this #CoronaVirus lockdown. It was a national waste of 20 minutes we could have spent better

General General boasted about what hd should be ashamed of. In a country of 200 million citizens, how can you boast of training 7,000 health workers. Was he not ashamed? This is what a local government chairman should be boasting about

General Buhari man said nothing. This was not news. It was noise. He says we are on the right track to defeat #COVID19 (thank God he could pronounce it). How? We are not testing. We don’t know who has it. We don’t know who has died due to #CoronaVirus

General Buhari boasted that his government has traced 92% of identified contacts of #CoronaVurus patients. This is blatantly false. For instance, have they traced and identified the contacts of all those who attended AMMA Awards

‪General Buhari did not address the breakdown of law and order in parts of Lagos and Ogun. People can’t sleep at homes. They are now vigilantes in their communities. Not one word. Not one word. It is as if their sufferings don’t exist. Very insensitive!‬‬

General Buhari is himself like a virus. He does not know what he is doing. If you say you want to protect the life of Nigerians, then how come your conditional cash transfer is lopsided towards the North, were over 80% of beneficiaries are located

Boris Johnson, who was just released from hospital gave a broadcast to the UK that was more informative and power packed than what General Buhari gave. Boris took questions. Buhari just stood there reading English that someone else typed for him. So uninspiring!

General Buhari has extended the #CoronaVirus lockdown in Lagos and Ogun. Does it not make sense that that is where he should focus his conditional transfer? Instead, he is focusing it on the North. Even in such a life threatening thing, he can’t hide his nepotism.

Lagos is on lockdown, yet less than 20,000 households in Lagos are getting money. Zamfara is not on lockdown and 200,000 households are getting the conditional cash transfer? How does this make sense General Buhari? Are you not ashamed? Are you so tribalistic?

‪General Buhari announced that his government has been sharing food. Why such an obvious lie? To who and where and when? If you have received such food, please testify. Or are Buhari and his family eating the food by themselves in Aso Rock?

General Buhari thanked the legislative arm. Really? Have they reversed their ₦37 billion budget to renovate the National Assembly? That amount is more than the money Buhari claims to be sharing in his so called conditional cash transfer to 2 million households.

‪12-In conclusion, this broadcast was done because General Buhari elt that he had to say something. It was not done because he had something to say! Jide Sanwaolu has more leadership in his little finger than General Buhari displayed in this underwhelming broadcast!‬‬

The Church, morality, and global factors of economic development

Does religion make us moral?

The prevailing social realities particularly in Africa and some other parts of the world have showed that Religion Doesn't Make People More Moral, The moral high ground seems to be a crowded place. A new study suggests that religious people aren't more likely to do “good” than their nonreligious counterparts. The church as a religious institution is presumably a center that should breed, groom and promote good moral values for a just and better society.

What is morality in Christianity?

The Christian ethics, which is simply theological discipline concerned with identifying and elucidating the principles that determine the quality of human behaviour in the light of Christian revelation. Have witnessed series of contradiction and controversies in recent times,  Thus  the need for a review of the prevailing global factors of socio-economic and societal value orientation, particularly in comparative view of social developments within Africa and the rest of the world, in reference to the ROLE and influence of Christianity as a religion.

With the exception of the United States of America (USA) as the number one global economic and political power, China is currently the world's leading economic power. In China, there is almost Zero Church presence. Prosperity preachers are useless in China.

Finland has the most stable economy in the world today. There are less than twenty churches in Finland. Sow-to-prosper doesn't work in Finland.

 Switzerland has the second most stable economy in the world. Switzerland has fewer than thirty churches. Miracle money is not welcome in Switzerland.

Denmark is the third most stable economy in the world; there are about 23 churches in Denmark. Denmark doesn't pray for its economic stability. These countries are considered to have the highest number of atheists, but they are prosperous!.

However comparatively   to #Africa...There are more than 10,000 churches per region including 4,000 churches in the city of Yaoundé alone! Yet poverty is driving Cameroonians to even other poorer countries.

 About 4100 churches in only the city of Abidjan!, 7000 churches in only the city of Kinshasa! 10,000 churches in only the city of Lagos in Nigeria! Note that Lagos is just one state out of 36 states that make up Nigeria. Yet Nigerians are leading the world in corruption and crime

In Africa, we have more churches than schools and hospitals combined!, More pastors than doctors & real engineers, ironically  Everyone is born again yet crimes are on the increase. Everyone is covered with the blood of Jesus yet accidents happen on our bad roads.  Even with the enormous resources available to make these roads motor able. Everyone is filled with the Holy Spirit yet our morals are depreciating in geometric progression. Africa's religiosity does not reflect on the morals that are hoped for in a decent society. The continent is perceived to be among the laziest, the most deceiving, the most corrupt, the most hypocritical, the most hateful on the planet today, with all our Jesus and the Holy Spirit!, Yet we visibly see ethnocentric tendencies within the church, insincerity etc. Our people need to distinguish between religion and stupidity or between spirituality and brainwashing! Or fiction and realty
