1. Nigeria is yet to greet its own Industrial Revolution. She is too poor a country to be swallowing everything from the Big West.

Thread.👇
2. Russia & Ukraine Crisis is an another opportunity for Nigeria & Africa to reevaluate their thinking on geopolitics & economy. Things are not black or white. The world is now bipolar. And whether you like it or not, things are changing.
3. Africa contributes just a tiny inconsequential amount to global emissions. Nigeria’s economy is too fragile & any tiny tinkering BOOM💥, everything goes burst!
4. Climate Change & Sustainable Energy is all good, but even the West is now beginning to flout & reverse itself. Nigeria must tap its coal & other energy mix to its full potential.
5. Developed economies can afford to move away from fossil but not Nigeria. Tap those LNG, export those gas to Europe, build more LNG trains & refineries, shore up your credit reserves.
6. And when you have achieved some semblance of parity & you think you have had your stomach fill, then you can sit at the table with the West & discourse Global Warming & Climate Change.
7. Biden banned Russia Oil. But America will start importing Oil from Venezuela. U.S is looking the way of autocratic states for its sustenance during this Energy Crisis. It’s all about the interest of the United States.
8. So Nigeria must lean towards itself. She must begin to find homegrown solutions to her problems. The West will not develop your country. Should war breakout, no one is coming to rescue you nor fight for you.
9. It’s up to the political class to fix up! Nigeria won’t survive the Poverty Revolution that may spring up few years down the line. The way things are moving, Nigerians will wake up one day & decide enough is enough!!
10. The history of nations & their journeys to nationhood have a lot of lessons for Nigeria. It breaks my heart that no one is listening. Nigeria have so much potentials to be a leader in Africa & around the world.
11. She cannot continue to carry on with business as usual. Get the right people into politics. Elect the people who have their hearts in the right place.
12. Fix your Leadership Selection & deemphasize the important of moneybags in politics. The 2023 Elections is the crossroads. After that, I predict a turning point.
13. Whether the politicians like it or not, that much awaited Awakening will happen sooner or later. What you do with this knowledge is entirely up to you. One thing is clear, “Nigeria won’t remain in bondage forever!”

1. If the 2nd Niger Bridge was wholly funded by the President Muhammadu Buhari led APC government & not the PPP, why is that 1.6 km bridge being tolled?
2. Who will Nigerians be paying the huge toll fees to? Obviously not Amaechi. Nigerians will pay tolls for 25 years to repay Buhari, the Presidency or Fashola?🤣
3. Apart from over-inflating the cost of that Bridge to the tune of N400 billion, + that additional N10 billion from GEJ, an ethical or moral question is begging for immediate & logical answer.

Bread will go up. Diesel is N850 & will hit N1000. Subsidy is N400. Fuel is scarce at N200. You are in stagflation smiling at hyperinflation. USD is N577. Force majeures, you can’t meet OPEC Quota & portfolio investors are not coming. The cost will be transferred to you. Feel me?
Air ticket is N50,000 (one leg). Aviation fuel is heading to N700

Japa may not be for everybody. No booklets. Have you gone to immigration office lately?

Your government is discussing with embassies to reduce your incessant migration. You are in the jungle, try not to get eaten
Buhari took 6 months to appoint his cabinet, leaving Nigeria on autopilot. He closed the borders & ushered in autarky. CBN’s Meffy aided him with ban, forex & tech restrictions.

Nigeria was already in ruins b4 COVID. Russia Ukraine Crisis only added fire to already raging flame.

1. Who was this most remarkable beautiful Nile princess steeped in mystery & fascination, who later became queen Neferneferuaten-Nefertiti? Who was this my alter ego? Where is her tomb or secret burial chamber? It’s a thread.👇 ImageImage
2. Neferneferuaten-Nefertiti, whose name means "a beautiful woman has come, beautiful are the beauties of Aten,” as a show of her ‘absolutism’ for a new religion, was the queen of Egypt & wife of Pharaoh Akhenaten, during the 14th century BC. ImageImage
3. Around 1350 BC, Nefertiti aged 15, became the queen of Egypt & the Nile. Alongside her husband Akhenaten, they created a new religious order. ImageImage

This is how the NASS voted on Bills for an Act to alter the 1999 Constitution:

1. Move VAT to the Exclusive Legislative List:❌ (Wike won).

2. Diaspora voting:❌ (sad for democracy).

3. Independent candidacy:✅ (now we crowdfund for Peter Obi as an independent candidate).
4. Powers to States to generate, transmit & distribute electricity: ✅ (this will grow the economy).

5. Move Railway to Concurrent Legislative List: ✅ (private sector investments will flow in).
6. Move Airports to Concurrent Legislative List:✅ (privately owned airports will spring up, this is good for the economy).

7. Powers to summon the President or Governors by the NASS & State Assemblies: ✅ (a win for democracy).

1. Biden’s “State Of The Union Address” is going to have lots of talking points. Biden will try to stress the power of the Alliance & the sacrifices Americans will have to make as biting inflation & sanctions takes foothold.
2. Biden is a pacifist but I’m sure we know that already. His speech & body language will continue to stress “deescalation.”

Deescalation will come at what cost?
3. Afghanistan & Ukraine are enough defeats for Biden, but they equally show the World his humanity. Biden is not a Demagogue. Demagoguery is not his strength, humanity is!!

1. The Ruble is falling. Putin can’t just print monies & fill up ATMs. It must be backed by something. Biden starved the Central Bank of Russia of precious Dollars.
2. America will suffer from these sanctions, but not as much as Russia. So how much misery is Putin willing to inflict on Russians & the Russian Economy?
3. Biden don’t want higher Oil prices. Higher Oil prices benefits Russia. China remains Russia’s strategic Oil buyer, & 40% of Russia’s Gold Reserve is held by China. Russia is now left with the option of selling its Oil in Rubles.
