Good morning.

Today, I shall be releasing a number of recordings taken from @DrIsaPantami's "Suwaye Yan Taliban" lecture on September 12, 2006, translated and subtitled by a native Hausa speaker.

Here is a sneak preview.
Yesterday, @DrIsaPantami "renounced" his abhorrent Islamic extremist views, which he openly and repeatedly expressed for more than a decade.

In my upcoming story on @NewsWireNGR, I will provide evidence showing that as usual, he is lying through his teeth.

#PantamiResignNow
As promised

And if you know you came to drag me on the TL to impress whoever you wanted to impress, for the love of whatever you believe in, don't bother sending me a DM now.

You came to slam dunk publicly. If you have something to say now, say it publicly. I'm not reading your stupid DM.
Came and sewed 10-page thread on my head, reported my account all the way from Germany, come dey send DM now after I turned out to be right (as usual) and I called you out.

You better maintain the same energy!
Sewed thread on my head and used the thread to sell his market talmbout "Pantami is a Liberal Salafist like the character in my book."

Now that it turns out you're full of shit, you're in my DMs speaking English. I muted your notification forever and left the convo.

Just a nice video of Nigeria's Minister of Communication and Digital Technology @DrIsaPantami having a friendly conversation with a nice chap you may have heard of.

Nice bloke called Mohammed Yusuf who founded Boko Haram.
In his prior iteration as a Salafist Islamic scholar, Mr Pantami was known for holding hardline Islamist positions that aligned very closely with those of Mr Yusuf and his Jamāʿat Ahl al-Sunnah li-l-Daʿawah wa al-Jihād, aka Boko Haram.

Watch from the 40 minute mark for a treat😬

One group of people in (southern) Nigeria I will always feel sorry for are the folks with N250M houses and Range Rovers and N23M in the bank who think that these things make them part of Nigeria's establishment.

I'll always be thankful to my dad for disabusing me of such notions
It is possible to live in the same neighbourhoods, eat in the same restaurants, attend the same schools, fly to the same destinations and have the same social graces as the owners of Nigeria, without ever being close to being one of them.

So many of us do not understand this.
In my lifetime, I've seen so many of said southerners rise and fall, all the while desperately keeping up appearances while the ground under their feet gives way, all the while not understanding what was happening and why.

The establishment is small. It is ethnic. It is filial.

In all my years of yabbing Zenith Bank which I've used since 2007, I've never had a situation where I do an electronic N50,000 transfer and it tells me "Transaction Completed" only for the money to vanish into a black hole.

But once you call yourself "fintech" anything goes.
Zenith Bank has done a lot of things that pissed me off including playing fast and loose with a USD transfer to my NGN account. I dragged them here for it.

But I have never seen Zenith Bank literally lose N50k of my money. I don't get how this is acceptable fiduciary behaviour.
I'm happy that some of you are so unthinkably wealthy that you can watch N50,000 ($100) of your hard earned money disappear into a completely unexplained black hole and be happy to let it happen.

Me I'm not o. The last time I was rich was in 2015. These days I work for a living.

I remember in 2016 when I traveled to Ekwulobia via Asaba airport for a Nigerian Breweries activation and I passed through Onitsha.

There were snipers with flak helmets stationed above the Niger Bridge and military roadblocks with sandbags on the main road through Onitsha.
There were assault rifles peeking out above the sandbags and sniper rifles on tripods pointing at ordinary passenger vehicles going past.

You would have thought these guys were scanning for IEDs in a hot zone in fucking Fullujah, not cosplaying GI Joe near Onitsha Main Market.
You could hear comments from people in the vehicle and their tone, and you could feel a very deep sense of resentment at being treated like they were subjects under martial law in a territory under hostile occupation.

I didnt even live there and I felt oppressed!
