In the past few days, I've noted tweets from both sides of the divide on the Biafra secession issue. Both those advocating for Biafra through support for IPOB & its ESN, and those who frown against it using words like "Igbos are not part of us", "they should be allowed to go"... While observing comments from both sides, all I keep saying to myself is "they don't know the half of it". Neither side actually knows everything that played out between 1967 and 1970, despite the many publications on the war.

Global economic recession finally catches up with Nigeria as it joins a long list of other nations consisting of: Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Romania, Russia, Spain, UK, USA... While some are still debating who/what got Nigeria into a recession, the issue to me is: did the FG anticipate the recession? And the answer is: Yes, the recession was anticipated as COVID-19 made it obvious in the first quarter of the year.

I remember when I traveled to Warri in 2016 just to celebrate Eid ul-Kabir with my bro @JerryEugene. On that Eid day, we trekked quite a distance under the rain just to find a Mai Suya roasting balangu. When we eventually found one, we bought it in quantum & headed back home... On getting back to the house, we set on the balangu with immediate alacrity. While on it, some of Jerry's friends came in and immediately commented about the quantity of meat we were eating, wondering what was amiss. Jerry told them we were celebrating Sallah...

Nigerian youths are not given N10k as you have just falsely stated. About 500,000 of them are earning N30k monthly under the N-Power scheme. You know this.

Speaking of the 4200 YouWIN beneficiaries that were given 210,000,000USD = N74,550,000,000. Where are the beneficiaries? Under the same @GEJonathan, N500 Billion was spent to empower 20,000 beneficiaries. Where are they? What was the impact?

It would interest anyone who cares to know that under @MBuhari, out of the N500 Billion budgeted for the SIPs in 2016, only N179.8 Billion has been spent...

Who is watching @channelstv "News @ 10" right now? They are showing an expose on how @bukolasaraki through the @NGRSenate are trying to cover up @dino_melaye's case with the @PoliceNG. TUNE IN! If you missed the report on @channelstv, you can see it here... Pt. 1

For me, the highlight of the #SIPInvests tour embarked upon by independent Social Media users is the story of Obinyelu Justice from Awba-Ofiemili, Anambra State. An @npower_ng beneficiary under the N-Agro Category. Pt. 1 cc @IsmaeelAhmedB @fola37 @toluogunlesi @Johannxs @NSIP_NG Obinyelu Justice was without a job for 4 years before he got to know about @npower_ng in 2016 and applied for it. That was when his life took a turn for the better. He is presently a rice farmer, and also owns his rice milling plant. Pt. 2 #SIPInvests

From the little knowledge I have gathered about the Euro Bond Road Show in London that was oversubscribed, this is actually Nigeria's 3rd Euro Bond issue that's getting oversubscribed. The first was in 2016, and the second in 2017... The oversubscription clearly indicates huge investor confidence in Nigeria's economy. This is contrary to what some mischievous individuals tried to put forward following the exit of HSBC.

If only you guys know how VP @ProfOsinbajo's outing on @breketeConnect was well received today ehh!

Came out from Maitama General Hospital after my checkup, walked up to where cab drivers congregate and they were paying rapt attention to their radios... #VPOonBrekete @ProfOsinbajo @breketeConnect I had no idea why they were more focused on @breketeConnect instead of carrying passengers. The one that picked me wasn't in the mood for a conversation, as they are wont to be. I relaxed and was focusing on other things when I heard the cabbie yelling... #VPOonBrekete

To expound on this, the Technology and Creativity Advisory Group of the Industrial Policy and Competitiveness Advisory Council was launched by the VP @ProfOsinbajo on June 11th, 2018... #TCAG @ProfOsinbajo The group brings personalities in Nigeria’s Technology and Creative Industry to be part of the Industrial Council, which President @MBuhari established in 2016 to boost public, private partnership. #TCAG

This brief thread below deserves to be expounded on a bit more so that people can understand what President @MBuhari's administration is doing differently regarding #SocialWelfare... #Thread @MBuhari 1- Under Gen. Yakubu Gowon, •the National Accelerated Food Production Programme (NAFPP) and the Nigerian Agricultural and Co-operative Bank (NACB) were set up. The NACB was established to fund agriculture... #SocialWelfare

It is great that most parties have now identified their flag bearers for the 2019 Presidential Election. In that vain, I'd love to congratulate President @MBuhari of the @OfficialAPCNg, and @atiku of the @OfficialPDPNig as the two major contenders. The debate is expected to be issue-based, and void of unnecessary propaganda (hopefully) from both camps.

One of such issues is that of #Restructuring which appears to be a major part of @atiku's campaign of which, I am of the view, should be addressed.

I had already seen your article on Premium Times. You sure made me laugh as you tried real hard to sound technical while responding to Prof. Osinbajo. Your article is less than watery, if there's anything like that, and I will show you why. Stay with me. The issue 'of "geographical restructuring" isn't a new/vague concept created by Prof. Osinbajo. In his response earlier today. He explained it as creation of states, or going back to regionalism. He even cited the 2014 confab report that recommended the creation of 18 more states

Having read through @Ayourb's TL of what the @nassnigeria arrived at during their close-door session earlier today, and also what appears to be a response from a group, of which @AbdulAbmJ is member, I can't help but wonder the sort of people we have in @nassnigeria... A deadly bank robbery occurred in Offa, Kwara State on Thursday, April 5th, 2018. It was so gruesome that the entire nation was in shock at the horror. We mourned, and then we all demanded that the @PoliceNG should leave no stone unturned in fishing out the perpetrators...

Yesterday, at the #CHOGM18 Business Forum in London, @NGRPresident, @Mbuhari's final thoughts were taken out of context, and completely reworded by "lazy" media houses. Unfortunately, a lot of we young people didn't bother to go beyond the headlines.
