Soon, someone would come to tell us that we lack comprehension skills and that the import of the loan agreement was not technically sufficient to waive our sovereignty. Another release would argue we would be able to repay the loan and there would be no need to panic.
China is up to no good. There's a very sinister plot and any govt willing to be a pawn in its hand would be given all manner of loans.

You don't have to take WorldBank/IMF loans either - cut cost, be efficient with what you have, expand your tax net fairly and grow.
He who goes borrowing is servant to the lender. We call on the National Assembly to probe and reject the loan agreement that confers sovereignty to another country on default of a petty loan.

In fact, such deeds are grounds for impeachment.

A lot of people don't understand the meaning of Democracy...the essence of it. Voting is only a byproduct of democracy not the substance.

Democracy is rule of law, ideas, balance of power, accountability and justice.

Democracy is not a popular candidate/party or elections!
Democracy is rule of collective will not popular candidate. How does collective will occur?

A short story will help.
A group of 50 traders meet from Poorland on their way to Richland. From their conversations they learn they're all headed in same direction and become a caravan.
Some intend to buy spices, one gem and silk and so on. They keep going. The richest merchant of the caravan is Richmiz. He sells gemstones. Navmiz sells books while Growmiz is into spices.

By road there are 7 countries between Poorland and Richland. By sea just 1.

In Nigeria this is how politics is done.
Dorne has severe food problem and many might just relocate to find food. Elections are in 2 weeks.

Ned of socialist wolves - you see, my people, the capitalist lions are the cause of our problems. They are corrupt.
Ned continues - we will build, a road, build a bridge and build classrooms.

Harald of the capitalist lions - let no one deceive you, the wolves are the problem, they are a group of corrupt people. We will build 5 classrooms, 7 toilets and hire 2000 youths.
Ned tells his supporters privately - Harald is of the tribe of Lannister and his mother is not known. Harald tells his supporters at a campaign ground - Ned and the house of Starks are dishonorable people.

They spend money on their supporters and make noise.

There should largely be an approach/ideology/worldview guiding politics...most societal issues really.

In the absence of that, you'd have too many randomly disconcerted actions.

There are many ideologies but for the sake of this thread, let's keep it simple.
Capitalism - private ownership and control of wealth with limited govt.

Socialism - limited private ownership, limited control of wealth, large govt intervention on public issues - health, education, etc.
There are others but I don't want to write a textbook tonight.

At any electoral interval, they (parties) must go to the people to tell them why each side's approach/ideology/plan is better than those of the other.

For quite some time the #Democrats have maintained that Russia meddled in the American elections of 2016 which brought in @realDonaldTrump as #POTUS.

Trump denies the allegation and the reports to make his election culpable of influence have not been as decisive.

Thread.
I'm starting to believe they were not wrong. In fact, recent developments suggest a conspiracy of epic proportions.

This is my theory:

Russia - a declining power has become the lackey to China. Putin made personal favours to Trump in that build up.
Ever since his inauguration, Trump has been withdrawing the US from its leadership of the Rules Based Liberal Order of which the UN is the centrepiece.

Trump at a meeting of the UN General Assembly said: the future does not belong to globalists but patriots.

The state capitalist model of the Chinese CP has worked thus far. In fact, it's a wonderful model to be frank. It's lifted hundreds of millions out of poverty. It would lift more.

But ambition drives China. It desires to be the dominant and most important country in the world.
The West is moving to clean renewable energy and doing all it can to have a cleaner earth. China doesn't like where that's going because it's a threat to its output on time and deliver model.

This would mean the Western brands who use China as a factory might look elsewhere.
Stats show that a bulk of the factory output from China is not consumed by China. She is well aware that it cannot sustain that much production to cater for its mass population.

I warned in '14&'15 against electing Buhari (may we never see his type again). We're officially in an abyss of economic decline, worsening insecurity and bitter ethnic tensions.

GMB represents all that's evil and wrong with Nigeria - contributor yet aloof to corruption.
But there's no point rehashing the obvious. It's best to proffer solutions:
Mass demonstrations to demand his resignation.
Mass demands on lawmakers to impeach him.
Mass demonstrations to jolt an elected elite who assume Nigerians are perfectly sympathetic to incompetence.
With Buhari (may we never see his type again) out of the way, the real work begins. Make no mistake about Buhari(may we never see his type again), his exit is only the beginning.

We must demand his successor PYO to
1 - Replace Service Chiefs
2 - Electoral Reforms
