To expect the globals to develop an appetite for Revolution in Nigeria is to believe yet again in the prowess of an alleged corruption fighting strongman General, wrapped in Aluminum foil and stampeded to power to deliver Nigeria of all that ails it.
They don’t care beyond ensuring our humanitarian crisis doesn’t get to the point where they would have to grant 2% of 200million people asylum under Article 14 of Universal Declaration of Human RIghts.
I still don’t get why we are overly concerned about external influence by the way, as though they were not involved in the decadence through the years.
We are all that we have and I’m glad you know this my great sir.
Each time they shake the jar we must avoid playing along with the script by fighting ourselves to the death but collectively focus our attention on the jar shakers and make them regret their action. 🤷🏾♂️

In 2019, the average cost of a Vote was valued at N30k per head under the guise of TraderMoni, shared to people in the grassroots months before election under the ‘ShareManship” of the one they want you to consider for President next with zero political collateral. #VoteWisely
This begs the question…”Will 2023 Election be bought?”Only you can decide that by shunning voter apathy, avoiding being cajoled or coerced by their propaganda, which will be deafening this time and finally by protecting your votes as made easier by the Electoral Act 2021.
Unless of course we enjoy pitching a tent at the worship of our problems where misery often finds company, we will stop playing the victim card and take responsibility. You can’t say there are no options for there are several this time around. #GettingItRightNG🇳🇬
It’s a shame on people who repeat what their eyes have not seen or rumors they have not verified. I owe my life to my nation and will never abandon my responsibility to the future of all our children despite not holding public office. I’m rooted & will always be available.
You are however free to call anyone you so choose for intervention. We have an institutionalized structure in place that will engage your petition with @SIAF_NG and @PoliceNG_CRU and the @PoliceNG is highly responsive now. The new Act is also being tweaked to serve us better.
The case in point has been engaged and @PoliceNG is not acting out of order. It is an ongoing investigation of a case of robbery and everyone in the vicinity was rounded up as suspect for questioning. We have engaged the originator of the tweet and monitoring the process.
Having paper money without influence is an embarrassment. Even amidst the rich, the race to wealth is fierce because the possession of money must get to a stage where your resources become a WEAPON for paranoia to abate. #ThinkThisThrough ⛱
For the purpose of illustation, no society deems you rich just because you ride a nice car and can handle your business sustainably or subsistently. You become valued when the fear factor is inherent. Imagine someone buying off a firm & shutting it down just to prove a point.
This is what our inherent tyranny within lust for in the pursuit of money. It may begin with the need to buy what one wants but after a time you get saturated and grow tired of buying what you have ni use for. You begin to seek more money to do dangerous things to rise to fame.
I once told of one of my old bosses who felt my diligence & conscientiousness weren’t sincere. From his experience no one can demonstrate excellence without wanting something back. I wasn’t even 20 then. He did all he could to frustrate me or catch me off guard. #BeingSEGA 🤓
Unfortunately for him, I was never on guard. That was my authentic self and I kept things truthful so I don’t ever have to remember anything. That was my Industrial attachment year. Fast forward, after graduation, he ended up asking me to take up managing the firm. #StayTrue
At this time there’re several offers competing for my attention. I took the most challenging one & went on to build the most advanced media firm in Africa as at the time. Thanks to Distinguished @opebanwo whose belief in the younger generation, paved way for the magic to happen.
Those seeking instant breaks should realize the difference between riches and wealth. Stumbling on money doesn’t make you rich neither will it suddenly open up opportunities for you in the circles of the rich. Influence goes with affluence. People will check your background. 💰
If you think driving big cars and throwing money around is what being wealthy is all about, you are just a hopeless Yahoo enthusiast.
The wealthy send their children to finishing school to learn the carriage and character of their status. Let the human billboards take note. ⛱
If you must succeed what you need is not just a pile of paper money but a cash flow & this comes either from investment in a business or in yourself. Have you found purpose? How much can you learn from what you enjoy doing passionately? Can others benefit from it enough to pay U?
Bishop, I drum it into my children’s ears always that I’m only doing God’s work by raising them right, it‘s not an obligation for them to take care of me. If it were, God would have made me a Bush Rat that suckles on the teat of its ward. Since I’m human, He’ll take care of me.🚶🏾♂️
So I have managed my expectations, insured myself against the future and won’t be surprised. I took care of my parents and I will not want to put a burden on my children. All we have is the present. It pays to live passionately, dance in the rain, take trips & enjoy life.
The only Legacy we ideally owe the kids is EDUCATION & occasional wise counsel embedded in stories that’ll live on in their hearts when we are gone. As we raise kids that will live in the society, we must contribute to society for our children’s sakes. Leave a good name at least.
