There’s more to the Northeast than the insurgency. The Region has just got its first (on-Grid) Power Plant - a 40MW Hydropower Plant in Kashimbila, Taraba State. Until now it was the only Zone in Nigeria without a Power Plant. #PMBMeansBusiness
In addition to Kashimbila Power Plant, the Northeast has seen a 100% increase in Transmission Capacity under President @MBuhari, with the 2018 completion of two 330kV transmission substations, in Maiduguri (Borno) and Damaturu (Yobe) nigeriaelectricityhub.com/2018/12/31/nor… #PMBMeansBusiness

The Last Stand of Ebora Owu.
OBJ is going to push even more people into voting for Buhari.
One question: did OBJ campaign at all for his new candidate in the 16-page ‘Letter’?

A friend (who has a Biz in the service industry) recently told me they didn’t realize, all the while they were supporting PMB in 2015, just how much of their Biz patronage came from the free money that flowed under GEJ/PDP. That money trickled everywhere

Really thought-provoking
And that’s how it was. Just for the 2015 elections, Diezani shared $115 MILLION to INEC and Security Agencies, to influence the elections. Then there was the $289 MILLION GEJ approved for NIA. All apart from the Grand Largesse: the $2.1 BILLION Dasuki shared to PDP chieftains.
All of this apart from the Oil Subsidy Money: Trillions of Naira paid out to dozens of companies mostly for doing nothing

All that money flowed into real estate, Aviation (PJs), Cars, & boosted the services sector, fueling the rise of fashion designers, events planners, etc

#president @KRLS "No tinc xofers ni seguretat, però tinc gent que ajuda. És evident que l'Estat em considera "caça major", però no pots viure amb paranoia constant. Qui ha de viure amb por són els criminals, no nosaltres" #QuatreGatsTV3

#President @realDonaldTrump's words, whether you accept his apology and his explanation, do not comport with his actions and his foreign policy toward #Russia. He has been one of the hardest presidents on Russia in recent memory.

#Trump #IntelligenceCommunity #Collusion
Where was the outrage when @BarackObama told Medvedev to inform #Putin "After my election I have more flexibility,"? I think much of the outrage being expressed- especially by #Republicans- is politically motivated.

#Trump #IntelligenceCommunity #Collusion #Russia
However, what @realDonaldTrump said was not right. It DID undermine our #IntelligenceCommunity, and it was a mistake. He has since corrected it and walked it back.

#Today's story to #EndFamilySeparation Four months ago, Dad and 4-month-old entered at the Texas/Mexico border and requested #asylum. Dad and child were immediately separated and the baby put in ORR custody. #FamiliesBelongTogether
Dad was detained in a #Texas detention center where @RAICESTEXAS consulted. Dad accepted a deportation to be quickly reunited w/ his infant child. However, the Dad was deported & NOT his child. The now 8-month-old baby has been in ORR custody for 4 months. #EndFamilySeparation
The Mom and Dad now have once weekly Skype calls with their 8-month-old baby. That's right, folks. They Skype with an infant. #EndFamilySeparation #FamiliesBelongTogether

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full

If you thought having their billion-dollar slush fund at the CFPB shut down had Democrats howling in outrage, wait until they get a load of THIS:
In blue closed union shop states, Public Employee Unions [PEU's] funnel a HUGE amount of money to Dem politicians in local/state races.

They do this a lot of $ from people who work in an industry but haven't joined the union. Those people are forced to pay dues ANYWAY.
PEU's collecting MANDATORY DUES FEES from nonmembers is a HUGE source of $$$ for Democrat local/state politics on many of the blue states.

And Trump is about to take an axe to that tree.

It’s a 7:41 drive from the White House to the Trump Hotel DC (with a motorcade; slower for you).
