BEFORE FBI COMES TO CHURCH
Social media have done more at condemning ill-gotten wealth than the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN). You will sleep there, if u expect some church overseers to take advantage of this sober moment, to make examples of the FBI 80 from the pulpit.
The show off by Yahooboys party-popping dollars isn't different from some of the drama from the pulpit: "brethren, the last time I was in the US, I stayed at Waldorf Astoria, sipping pina colada when God reminded me i left my Rolex in my Rolls Royce, at the valet parking." 😀
Every breakthrough is breakthrough, even if you break bank.
At full cycle, I won't be surprised, if Fatoyinbo's name features as a picker in the ongoing FBI scandals. I have nothing personal against him, but that man has dashed out new SUVs more than Coscharis Motors in Nigeria.
These show offs is a reason why some Nigerians never toiled for a day in Nigeria, before becoming desperate immigrants. You cant see Nigerians in a US old people's home, scooping poo that spilt from adult diapers, and you'll want to hike Sahara desert, to enter Spain from Libya.
1 Cor 3:13 says "Every man's work shall be made manifest: for d day shall declare it, b'cos it shall be revealed by fire; and d fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is."
FBI 80 have appellation like "Thank you Jesus," "Son of God." God saved me none is "Son of David."
It's time for the church to emphasize diligence, instead of breakthrough. Diligence in the secular work Christian do is what will sustain the Gospel, and not special seeds from "Hickory Dickory Dock." This was how we started, "God is asking me to give 10 SUVs to 10 people here."
To complete the work FBI and EFCC have started, the church needs to do away with "cash and carry" prophetic blessings: If you want to give 1M, stand like this for anointing oil. If you want to give 500k, stand to the left. If all you have is 5k, stay where you are. God bless you!

GETTING PAID FOR SHAME
Being wrongly listed among the pupils laughing at it, that they saw a girl's pant, forms part of my unpalatable childhood experience. It evokes a feeling of shame in the past, both ways between boys and the girls, if a girl's under skirt, shinmi, is seen, even by accident. This psychosocial behaviour, which separated humans from lower animals, appears to be persistently up for sale, today, as views.
Feeling ashamed is one of nature's ways of enforcing etiquette. The lady making and sharing videos of her time in the loo, with her undies pulled to her knees, is a secondary show of shame. The bigger problem lies with the bookmarkers and the viewers, especially those who reposted.
I'm told a sextape leak is sometimes deliberate and a strategic marketing comms. On the other hand, how do you all find Egungun's content entertaining? His and the video of the muscular influencer caressing an erection, shared all over the Internet, forms part of the mental trigger for the assaultive tendencies in young men towards women. 18 is classified as the age of maturity, but why would anybody as a parent want to raise a child who becomes an adult who sees his penis as a weapon?

BETTING AGAINST THE ODDS
Qualitatively, the pattern of voting in the Lagos governorship election will be different from what we just saw. At full resentment, Obidients garnered 582,664 in Lagos. There are at least 200,000 voters who voted Obi & Atiku, who will vote for Sanwoolu.
Of 6million+ registered voters in Lagos, a passive 1.4 million have always shown proof of life. From this #, APC would have ~71% at best & 51% worse case scenario. There's ~200,000 voting latency in Lagos. Good a thing Yayi won in Ogun. He needs to return to Alimosho immediately!
Ashafa should be begged to return to FOB. Kosofe & Alimosho's voter's turnout is abysmally low. This must be fixed ahead of the guber election. It was Shomolu that saved Abiru, meaning something was amiss in Kosofe after Peppers' death, and pointing to baba Eto as a paper tiger.

VOTE BUYING WITHOUT BUYING VOTES
Whereas we have narrowly adduced cash use to vote buying, paying polling agents, and contigent logistics, many new participants in election will be shocked by a harsh reality on election day. The coming election will be won or lost due to turnout.
On the eve of election, volunteers and party reps will find out that many of their supporters don't live in the ward where they are registered to vote. Only a limited number have bothered transferring to the PU close to where they live, bearing in mind there will be no movement.
As a mobilization officer, I initially thought it was about going door-to-door, asking people to come out and vote on election day. Less than 24hrs to election, unbudgeted for, we started looking for accommodation for over 540 supporters who needed to pass the night in the ward.

PETTY CASH POLITICS (POLICY)
Like I predicted during the chaotic deadline of SIM-NIN linkage, CBN should be prepared to make more face-saving extension of its petty deadline for currency swap, as jungle matures. The program will hurt d economy more than it will hurt politicians.
Nigeria has an informal economy size of ~57% (% of GDP), occupying 3rd in global ranking after Afghanistan & Zimbabwe. Apart from more than N1trillion cash handling within homeland part of Nigeria's shadow economy, trans-border cash transaction is also a trillion naira blindspot!
When I was into haulage, my trailers have hauled Urea from Eleme to Dakar, Senegal where the drivers were paid in Naira, in cash! Nigeria is a major source of polypropylene pellets to most west coast countries and a huge part of the trans-border procurement is in Naira, in cash.

OIL THEFT: ANOTHER BANDITRY
I didnt study petroleum engineering, so I dont know if they teach, "how to bolt plidco clamp under heavy artillery gunfight lasting hours in a crocodile infested mangrove, at night. Pipeline tapping/oil theft is a fully armed militia backed operations.
Nigeria's production flows through an extensive cobwebs of transfer lines that are as old as 50yrs, buried in the marshes. Some of the tappings being discovered recently have been connected as far back as the military government era, where platforms are like Abacha's courtyard.
Pressure loss, usually at night, during oil theft are normally picked on barton charts at flow stations. The question is, how do u immediately locate where a 60Km line is tapped at midnight. A flyover is the quickest way, putting the helicopter pilot at risk of being gunned down.

FAMILY RELOCATION: THE TRUTH
The current flux of relocating families is a deliberately overlooked sign of an improved economy. In d 90s we can count those who can afford it on our fingers. T'was Dele Momodu's job then to tell us who travelled- "Segun Alawaye Jets Out To London."
Japa is a good for those who cant find their feet. Middle class joining this race has its roots in higher income and craze to brag about kids studying abroad. I laugh at how desperately people want their children's accent to change. Its pleasing when they speak and u can't hear.
"We are doing it for the children." What exactly does this mean? Security is of course an issue that affects everybody, but many who are leaving are in the class of people living in armed guarded, secured estates. Its a heightened sense of being a target because we have money.
