I look at issues critically, I take my time to analyse the problems and ways of solving them. I can beat my chest proudly that on this Naija twitter, nobody and I repeat NOBODY has written better analysis on major issues plaguing the country.
Education
Security
Healthcare
Revenue allocation and generation
Infrastructural development
Governance and restructuring
Police formation and crime control

I don't just criticise. I can blow my trumpet that my thoughts are valid answers.
I don't stop here, I also contribute to bills.
- Healthcare reform bill
- Health insurance
- PPP in healthcare

I have outgrown a lot of things, criticism and aluta without a pragmatic approach is one of them.
If you have come across better analysis here, bring them forward. One thing you won't deny me here is my right to free association and the right to share my views.
You can't gag me...

Any attempt to malign or ridicule the personality of Prof Yemi Osinbajo on this app will be met with full force. It is a gang up against the South West and the Yoruba nation and I am a proud Yoruba man who will not use his 'left finger to point to his father's house'. Image
And this is a fair warning to those agents of destabilisation in the south west.
What do you expect from the man? What constitutional powers as VP does he have that he hasn't fully used to address issues? What standards? Do you want him to usurp the powers of the president?
Did you hold Sambo to the same standards? Do you know your deputy governor? Who is the deputy governor of Rivers state? How many times have you seen him or her?
Why do you cry everyday about Osinbajo? Any attack on Osinbajo is an attack on the Yoruba race and we won't sit back.

You are criticizing Nigeria's FX policy yet you want Nigeria to supply you FX or create an arbitrage for staple food items that can be grown here. You aren't asking for FX for inputs like machinery, tractor, seeds, fertilizer. You want the govt to give cheap FX to buy palm oil
while the local farmers are struggling you want to carry your briefcase to CBN in your fancy suit to pick cheap dollars so that you can dump your staple food here, without providing any value while killing local farmers. What have you invested in the process? container economy
What makes you think you deserve the FX? You think you are superior to the farmer in Edo or Kebbi because you have a briefcase and you speak English so you can import freely without backward integration? If you are a critic of the FX policy

In 2002 / 2003, I can't remember the exact year, there was a protest in Unilorin which later turned into a riot over an increase in school fees. The accommodation component of the fees was increased. Tuition was N90 and accommodation was around N1000.
Our hostels were in a terrible shape and every sensible student knew they needed to be fixed. Fixing them would cost money, the school had maintained the same cost over a period of time despite the increase in the number of students and pressure on existing facilities.
The pertinent questions we were meant to ask was
1. Total number of students living on campus
2. Total revenue generated from accommodation fees
3. Total fees allocated to hostels for maintenance
4. Cost of renovation / breakdown
5. Probable cost students would bear

The entire stretch from VI / Oniru / Lekki / Agungi up to Sangotedo is filled with expensive, high income housing estates. No consideration for low income workers - drivers, maids, cooks, hairdressers, sales attendants etc making a living off the 'rich' in these areas.
They want to live close to the rich where the jobs are but affordable accommodation isn't available.

The effect - slums.

Victoria Island - Old Kuramo / barbeach slum
Lekki phase 1 - Itedo slum
Oniru - Marwa, twinwaters beach front
Osapa / Ikate - Jakande slum
VGC - Ilaje slum
The people build slums to try and narrow the inequality gap. Back to the master plan of Lagos, the design was to have middle and low income housing close to business and economic hubs.

Adeniji Adele housing - Lagos Island, Onikan and Ikoyi
Dolphin extension - Ikoyi

Let me tell you what the typical day in the National Security Advisers office look like..

1. Boko Haram attack in the North East
2. Mali insurgents from the collapse of the regime
3. ISWAP
4. Possible BokoHaram attack in other parts of the country.
5. Bandits in Katsina, Zamfara, Sokoto, Kaduna, Niger state.
6. Ethnic conflicts in Taraba, Kaduna, Benue, cross River, Ebonyi
7. Kidnappers along Abuja / Kaduna highway
8. Vandalism of oil installations and pipeline across the country
9. Farmer herder clash
10. 6m people in IDP camps made worse by recent flooding, this is the size of a country in Europe.
The EndSARS movement got the attention of the govt, we could have been protesting against persistent bomb blasts in Ikeja / VI or bandits on 3rd mainland or Lekki / Epe expressway

The agitation and awareness must not die. Form think tanks - research and policy groups. Start today by engaging your LG chairman. Accountability starts from the grassroot, move to the assembly members and let them know that they will be voted out. Democracy is about numbers..
If you cannot hold your LG chairman accountable, you will struggle to hold any soul in Abuja accountable. Find out what is happening to your roads, health centres, public schools, drainage, waste management etc.
Find out why there is no community health insurance, find out from the house of assembly why people don't have municipal water supply. How much is the cost? Who can do it..
If we cannot stop corruption at this level, then we are joking..
Move to the governor and law makers
