DIEZANI ESCAPED EFCC IN 2015 – NOW FACES BRITISH COURTS IN 2025!

The long arm of the law has finally caught up with Nigeria’s fugitive former female Petroleum Minister in London!   Although it took a decade of very diligent and meticulous investigations by the British Police to unravel accusations of bribery and corruption against her as a public servant!

Allison-Maduake escaped to London in 2015 in spite of the eagle-eye network of the Nigeria’s Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). Detectives!

 But unlike statute-barred civil cases which could be terminally terminated after a period of time, criminal proceedings are prone to litigation forever as long as accused person or persons are alive!

On arrival in London the United Kingdom’s National Crime Agency (NCA), swung into action and unravel the fugitive’s mission in the City!

She was first arraigned in court in 2015, but was granted bail while further investigations continued.

PLEASE FIND BELOW DETAILS OF BBC AFRICA REPORT OF AUGUST  2023, WHEN SHE WAS CHARGED WITH BRIBERY.

The NCA working on suspicion that the former Nigerian Minister accepted financial rewards for awarding multi-million dollar oil and gas contracts, froze assets worth millions of pounds relating to the alleged offences as part of their ongoing probe.

The NCA says Diezani Alison-Madueke, who served as Oil minister from 2010 until 2015, is alleged to have benefited from:

At least £100,000 ($127,000) in cash, Chauffeur-driven cars, flights on private jets, luxury family holidays, use of multiple London properties, furniture, renovation work and staff for the properties, payment of private school fees, gifts from designer shops such as Cartier jewelry and Louis Vuitton goods.

The US Department of Justice was also reported to have recovered assets totaling $53.1m linked to Diezani’s alleged corruption.

IN JANUARY 2026 – AFTER TEN YEARS OF DODGING THE LONG ARMS OF THE LAW, THE SUSPECT WAS FORMALLY ARRAIGNED!

The suspect was formally arraigned on 29th January 2026 before a British Court to answer to the charges.

Following her tenure as Petroleum Minister, she has been subject to extensive investigations regarding corruption, bribery, and money laundering allegations by agencies including the UK’s National Crime Agency (NCA).

BELOW ARE MEDIA REPORTS ON DIEZANI’S PROSECUTION.

According to the Prosecuting Counsel, Alexandra Healy KC, the case was about bribery in relation to the oil and gas industry in Nigeria between 2011 and 2015.

“Those interested in the award and retention of lucrative oil and gas contracts provided significant financial and other advantages to Alison-Madueke.

“There is a strong public interest in ensuring that conduct in this country does not further corruption in another country,” she added.

Jurors were shown photographs of a Buckinghamshire property known as The Falls, bought in 2010 by Nigerian businessman Olajide Omokore, owner of Atlantic Energy.

The court heard that from late 2011, Alison-Madueke allegedly had exclusive use of the property, which included a cinema room, staying there several times and spending about six weeks writing a book. The costs, including about £300,000 in refurbishments, were allegedly paid by Tenka Limited.

Prosecutors further said that between May 2011 and January 2014, about £500,000 was paid in rent for two flats in central London occupied by Alison-Madueke and her mother, with company records allegedly showing that Tenka settled the bills.

Alison-Madueke (65), is standing trial alongside oil executive Olatimbo Ayinde, 54, who faces one count of bribery relating to her and another of bribing a foreign public official.

Her brother, Doye Agama, 69, a former archbishop, is charged with conspiracy to commit bribery and is attending the trial by video link for medical reasons.

All three defendants have denied the charges. The trial is expected to last 12 weeks for JUSTICE to be carried out diligently according to the LAW!

MEDIA REPORTS ON THE DEFENSE.

Diezani was just ‘rubber-stamp’ for oil contracts under Jonathan, her Lawyer tells UK court.

Mrs Alison-Madueke served as Nigeria’s oil minister from 2010 to 2015 under the Jonathan administration.

Counsel Jonathan Laidlaw, rejected the allegations that she exercised decisive control over major oil sector deals, saying she was just a ‘rubber stamp’ when she served as oil minister in the Goodluck Jonathan administration.

He told jurors at Southwark Crown Court on Thursday 29th January 2026 that Mrs Alison-Madueke did not have the authority to award lucrative government contracts.

Mr. Laidlaw told the court that, as a minister, her role was to approve oil and gas agreements granted by the government.

REUTERS reported that he described her as a mere “rubber stamp” for official recommendations. 

Alison-Madueke served as Nigeria’s oil minister from 2010 to 2015 under the Jonathan administration. She also chaired the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in 2014–2015. She fled to London after the Peoples Democratic Party lost the 2015 presidential election.

In the UK, the former minister is on trial on corruption charges, having been earlier charged in 2023 with five counts of accepting bribes and one count of conspiracy to commit bribery.

UK authorities say the charges are linked to the award of oil and gas contracts during her tenure as Petroleum Minister.

But she has pleaded not guilty to multiple charges, including accepting bribes and conspiracy to commit bribery.

The trial could carry significant penalties if she is convicted. Under the UK Bribery Act, she can face up to 10 years in prison and/or an unlimited fine.

In Nigeria, the courts have ordered the forfeiture of properties worth billions of naira linked to Mrs Alison-Madueke. The anti-graft agency, EFCC, argues that it has evidence of her roles in several corruption cases. However, her absence from the country has stalled her prosecution.

DIEZANI is married to Rear Admiral Allison Madueke (retired), a former Chief of Naval Staff and military governor as a SECOND WIFE.

Allison Amaechina Madueke (born 1944) is a retired Nigerian naval officer. He served as Chief of the Naval Staff of Nigeria from 1993 to 1994, Military Governor of Anambra State, January 1984 to August 1985, and Imo State Military Governor from 1985 to 1986.

The retired Chief of Naval Staff had distanced himself from Media Controversy in respect of his wife’s ten-year scandalous ordeal. 

ADDENDUM.

WE said it before in one of our past Publications that “Nigeria Is The Bastard Child of Britain”, and WE have always been proved RIGHT! 

COULD DIEZANI HAVE PULLED THIS KIND OF STUNT IN BRITAIN?

At independence in 1960, Nigeria adopted a Westminster-style parliamentary democracy, a federal system with a ceremonial Governor-General (representing the Queen) and an elected Prime Minister as head of government, a structure similar to Britain’s, but with power distributed among three large regions, transitioning to a republic in 1963 with a President as Head of State, before military coups ended the era in 1966.It is obvious that Each Founding Father had his ETHNIC AGENDA and instead of copy-paste the very successful PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT of the Parent Nation on 1st October 1960 - collectively agreed to go their separate ways in a Regional arrangement – similar to the discarded Lord of the Manor practice of the Small Land Owners of Anglo-Saxon and  Norman England!

In three years, the country transited into a Republic and adopted the very expensive PRESIDENTIAL SYSTEM for the developing nation and fell into hands of ambitious gun totters!

We need to go back to the DRAWING BOARD! There are millions of Patriotic Nigerians prepared work for FREE IN A ONE – HOUSE PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT THROUGH REFERENDUM – if only the President could muster the GUTS TO TAKE THE DECISION!

“A stitch in time saves nine!”

SACKED DSS BOSS COULD DEFEAT TINUBU IN 2027!

   ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.   

 

 A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria.  {Vol. 15. NO 640. 25th January 2026} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32).  PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

 

SACKED DSS BOSS COULD DEFEAT TINUBU IN 2027!

Following the Supreme Court verdict that Alhaji Bola TINUBU won the 2023 Presidential Election with an overall 36.6% of the vote over two other major contestants, Nigerian politicians wasted no time to begin early campaigns for the next cycle in 2027!

In view of the bitterness and acrimony generated against the apex court verdict there was an opposition consensus that the anointed candidate must be blocked from a second term in office!

All major opposition parties have sheath their swords to form a Coalition similar to the formation of the All Progressives Congress (APC), of 2013 which successfully overthrew an incumbent in the person of President Goodluck Jonathan during the 2015 election!

After much deliberations, the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has provided the needed haven and from that platform, they hope to stop Tinubu in 2027!

 However the choice of a flag bearer has created a contention because none of the very ambitious presidential aspirant was willing to back down!

LAWAL DAURA MAY BE THE HATCHET MAN FOR ADC!

Lawal Daura was the DSS Boss sacked in 2019 by Acting President Yemi Osibajo, for sidelining the Presidency to SHUT DOWN THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY!

 However, Daura claimed he acted primarily to prevent the #RevolutionNow protests and to clamp down on perceived threats to national security, such as calls for an uprising to highlight poor governance in an attempt to destabilize the country.

 He also said that his actions were part of a broader crackdown on what he perceived as REVOLUTIONARY THREATS TO NATIONAL SECURITY, including calls for a change of government and criticisms of the administration!

But the unauthorized blockade of the National Assembly, prevented some senators and workers from gaining entrance and caught the ire of the sitting Acting President!

Acting President Yemi Osibajo (SAN), described the blockade as a gross violation of constitutional order, rule of law and all accepted notions of law and order!

According to him, the unlawful act which was done without the knowledge of the Presidency was condemnable and completely unacceptable!

Prof. Osibajo assured Nigerians that all persons within the law enforcement apparatus who participated in the travesty would be identified and subjected to appropriate disciplinary action!

Daura, born 5th August 1953, was appointed by President Muhammadu Buhari on 2nd July 2015, following the dismissal of his predecessor Ita Ekpeyong was NOT RE-INSTATED in spite of all political and ethnic pressures!

However, Lawal Daura who has just thrown his cap into the political ring may be the right Presidential Candidate of ADC against Tinubu in 2027!

Alhaji Tinubu as APC Leader from  2015-2023 did not plead for Lawal’s re-instatement BUT instead shouted to high Heavens: “EMI ‘LOKAN” (It’s my turn), to rule as President in 2023!

“I LOVE MY COUNTRY NO BE LIE”!

Lawal Daura now a Septuagenarian was recently quoted in the media as saying: “I’ve made a name beyond this country, if it was about money, what will I do with it, now?”

BUT DAURA MUST FACE A VERY CRITICAL JURY ON HIS JOURNEY INTO POLITICS!

*Can Justice Adeniyi Ademola, grandson of the first indigenous Chief Justice of Nigeria and the Seven Lordships fingered in corruption and abuse of office allegations in October 2016 easily forget THE NOTORIOUS MIDNIGHT DSS STING OPERATION that exposed them to the World as COMMON CRIMINALS – when at the conclusion of trial – all 18-Count Charges against him were dismissed by the Courts?

*Can Human Right Activist Omoyele Sowore, Journalist cum Politician recall or count how many times he had been randomly picked up unlawfully incarcerated by the DSS on trump -up charges including a treasonable offence allegation of plotting to overthrow the Federal Government of Nigeria when he sponsored and declared #REVOLUTION NOW PROTESTS?

*Is it not on record that the DSS brutalized and obtained Court injunctions to detained him for a period of FIVE YEARS that the Kangaroo Trial lasted and that Sowore was DISCHARGED AND ACQUITTED ON ALL COUNTS TO THE SHAME OF THE NOTORIOUS ORGANIZATION?

*Can Executive Officers of the NLC easily forget their ordeal of August 2024, in the hands of the DSS when their Abuja Headquarters was raided without execution of Search Warrant under the pretext that a FOREIGN TERRORIST WAS HARBORED IN THE COMPLEX?

*Although DSS denied involvement in a raid on the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) headquarters, which was widely condemned by civil society groups, the purported foreigner published his identity on the Internet and claimed to be a CONTRACTOR to the Federal Government in over FIVE YEARS!

 *Nigerian security apparatuses, especially the DSS, has faced criticism regarding the handling of sensitive investigations, with accusations of using illegal or improperly obtained evidences! 

*Can Members of the National Assembly (NASS), easily forget the ordeal they went through in 2019 when THE FEDERAL MONUMENT was put under lock and key by the  DSS ?

Lawal Daura, then Head of the Agency claimed that the SIEGE was in national interest to protect the National Edifice from vandalization?

* Can female member of the House of Representatives, Boma Goodhead (PDP, Rivers), forget when armed masked DSS Operatives prevented her entry into the National Assembly until she stood her ground and shouted menacingly: “I dare you to shoot, shoot me. How can you come here and be embarrassing us…..” before she was granted entry?

WHY I WANT TO JOIN POLITICS!

Former Director-General of the Department of State Services (DSS), Lawal Daura, has explained why he decided to join politics, stressing that his move was not driven by ambition, wealth, or the pursuit of power.

In a statement reported by DAILY POST on Thursday, January 22, 2026, Daura noted that the office he once held as DSS chief was more influential than that of a governor, adding that he had already built a reputation beyond Nigeria’s borders.

He said his decision was motivated by the need to address pressing national issues such as human rights abuses, the daily suffering of citizens, and the loss of lives across the country.

Daura emphasized that these challenges are real and widespread, affecting homes, roads, and everyday life. 

He explained that they compelled him to step into politics to ensure that citizens’ rights and dignity are protected.

According to him, his political ambition is rooted in service to the people rather than personal gain or recognition.

Daura said, “This is not about leadership position. The office I once held was bigger than that of a governor. I have made a name beyond this country. If it was about money, what would I do with money now?

LAWAL DAURA MAY BE THE “MESSIAH” NIGERIA NEEDS TO DEFEAT TINUBU IN 2027 AND PROCLAIM NATIONAL REFERENDUM FOR ONE- HOUSE PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT FOR NIGERIA!

HISTORICAL ANTECEDENT- EVOLUTION OF DSS – Wikipedia .

The Department of State Services (DSS), or State Security Service (SSS), is Nigeria’s primary domestic intelligence agency, originating from the Special Branch of the Police in 1948. It evolved from the Nigerian Security Organization (NSO) established in 1976 and was formally restructured into the State Security Services (SSS), in 1986 to handle internal security, counter-intelligence, and intelligence gathering.

1948 – Pre-independence: The “E” Department (Special Branch) was established under the Nigeria Police Force to manage internal security, acting as the foundation for the current intelligence agency.

1976 – NSO Establishment: Following the assassination of Gen. Murtala Mohammed, the Nigerian Security Organization (NSO) was formed to manage security threats and intelligence gathering.

1986 – SSS Creation: The NSO was dissolved and restructured into three separate bodies by the Babangida administration, with the State Security Service (SSS) tasked with domestic intelligence and Internal Security for preventing crimes against the state, including terrorism, espionage, and sabotage.

One of its notable actions included the 1993 arrest of Egyptian bomber Omar Mohammed Ali.

 CONCLUSION: IT TOOK ONE “MESSIAH” FROM DAURA, KATSINA STATE, EIGHT CONSECUTIVE YEARS TO DESTROY THE HIGH HOPES OF EMANCIPATION OF THE TALAKAWAS FROM ABJECT POVERTY IN NIGERIA; BUT IT MAY NOT TAKE MORE THAN EIGHT DAYS FOR ANOTHER DAURA “MESSIAH” AFTER INAUGURATION IN 2027 AS PRESIDENT TO DECLARE NATIONAL REFERENDUM FOR ONE-HOUSE PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT FOR NIGERIA!

“With GOD, all things are possible.!”

CAN FOOD INFLATION RECEDE AMIDST MUDDLED UNEXECUTED BUDGETS?

   ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.   

 

 A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria.  {Vol. 15. NO 639. 18th January 2026} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32).  PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

 

CAN FOOD INFLATION RECEDE AMIDST MUDDLED UNEXECUTED BUDGETS?

Nigerians politicians hardly prepare to serve their nation with diligence at any level of government because the presidential system of government which is albatross to a developing nation has provided illicit inroad to wealth acquisition!

From all indications there is rotation consensus of turn-by-turn between the North and South!

That Alhaji Bola Tinubu shouted to high heavens in 2022 that it was his turn to ascend to the highest office is stale news!

HIS MAJOR INTEREST WAS IN THE PRESTIGIOUS TITLE!

As at the time of this report, Alhaji has Rolled together Four Unexecuted Budgets from 2023-2026 – and gleefully said FOOD INFLATION HAS RECEDED THROUGH HIS STATISTICIANS!

His unverifiable statement is in bad taste because it is UNTRUE like the parable of the Blind Men!

 Some Blind Men, according to a parable were taken on a guided tour of an elephant’s massive body and in the process of identification proceeded to touch the object from their different vantage positions!

The blind man at the rear of the elephant touched its tail and said the object felt like a Snake!

The second man who was positioned on the elephant’s side said he touched a concrete Wall while another standing right in front of the animal touched the trunk and described it as a Tree trunk because each only perceived their limited part and not the whole!

 Alhaji Tinubu and his unprepared team are exactly like the Blind Men who only highlighted how subjective their partial experiences seemed like! 

And whereas, to establish the broader perspectives of a subject matter, all senses of communication must be employed to grasp complex realities LIKE AN ELEPHANT WHICH NIGERIA REPRESENTS!

MINISTER OF FINANCE WHO ATTENDED WEF 2026 IN, DAVOS SWITZERLAND REALLY PLAYED THE BLIND MAN!

He attended the annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) 2026 in Davos, Switzerland, from 19th to 23rd January.

Below are some snippets of his thoughts during an interview with Bloomberg which WE watched live.

The Minister, Wale Edun highlighted the nation’s efforts to attract investment by showcasing a stable macroeconomic environment through a financial strategy, focused on REDUCING RELIANCE ON BORROWING but instead, boost domestic resource mobilization. 

Our Comments: Foreign/domestic borrowings remain top priority of the APC Administration – whereas figures of MONTHLY SAVINGS from removal of Petroleum Subsidy and PROCEEDS from Internally- Generated Revenues (IGR), are usually falsified or hidden from public scrutiny!

He expressed concern that a global shift from multilateralism and globalization could lead to less trade, slower growth, and fewer opportunities for countries like Nigeria.

Our Comments: Wrong! In fact MULTILATERALISM & GLOBALIZATION will impact the  nation’s economy positively when goods/services comply perfectly with international best practices!

Nigeria aims to consolidate its financial position and RELY LESS ON DEBT, PRIORITIZING INVESTMENT, particularly domestic investment, and increasing domestic savings.

Our Comments: Edun meant that his Principal would rely less on borrowing- prioritize investment of an administration that is actually on Ground Zero and desperately seeking for avenues to SELL NATIONAL ASSETS – and rake in monies for MORE JAMBOREES LIKE DAVOS AND ABU DHABI! Which domestic investments would materialize in an economy which had REMAINED MORIBUND through Policy Somersaults since 29th May 2023?  Equally, the benchmarks adopted for the latest of the ROLL-OVER OR RATHER ROLLER-COASTER BUDGET 2026, are predicated on slippery parameters! 

The government is implementing TAX REFORMS and utilizing technology to increase the tax-to-GDP ratio from 13% to 18% in the near future and to block leakages in revenue collection.

Our Comments: WE have been proved right again that Alhaji Tinubu only studied TAX COLLECTION and NOT ECONOMICS at the CHICAGO STATE UNIVERSITY, United States! Although he claims that the NEW TAX REGIME was to eliminate the burden of the POOR MASSES – earning NGN800, 000 naira and below who from January 2026 – were EXEMPTED! National Minimum wage is NGN70, 000. Multiplied by 12 gives a total of NGN840, 000, naira which is already TAXABLE! And the whole 250 million population of Nigerians – including INFANTS pay VALUE ADDED TAX (VAT)!

Nigeria is actively looking to attract private sector funding, including investments from the diaspora and foreign investors, especially from cash-rich regions like the Middle East.

Our Comments: They want to Reap where they did not Sow! These surrogates now travel abroad and enjoy EXOTIC LIFESTYLES on the SWEAT, LABOR AND BLOOD OF THE TALAKAWAS DUE TO THE  CONTINUOUS IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ACCURSED PRESIDENTIAL PREDATORIAL SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT!

Nigeria aims to rely on its own resources more than multilateral institutions like the INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND (IMF), emphasizing immediate discussions with foreign direct investors and agreements like the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement with the UAE.

Our Comments: YOU DARE NOT LURE NIGERIA INTO EVERLASTING DEBT BONDAGE! The consequences will be CALAMITOUS!

ECONOMIC GROWTH AND STABILITY?

Edun highlighted President Tinubu’s efforts in correcting past distortions, stabilizing the exchange rate, controlling inflation, and fostering economic growth to lift millions out of poverty. The short-term goal is to raise the tax-to-GDP ratio to 18% and increase government spending on social services and infrastructure to over 20% of GDP.

Edun claimed he was in Davos to promote Nigeria as an investable country with a large domestic market, natural resources, critical minerals, and an improved investment environment and that Nigeria was focusing on refining crude oil into petroleum and petrochemical products, aiming for industrialization rather than exporting raw materials.

Our Comments: BROKEN RECORDS THAT NIGERIANS ARE TIRED OF HEARING!

The following is Nigeria’s Total Debt burden according to the Debt Management Office:

As of June 30, 2025, Nigeria’s total public debt reached approximately ₦152.4 trillion (about $99.66 billion), an increase of ₦3.01 trillion from the previous quarter, with the Debt Management Office (DMO) reporting THIS RISE DRIVEN BY BORROWING AND CURRENCY FLUCTUATIONS, ACCORDING TO  REPORTS IN LATE 2025!

QUESTION: WHICH SIDE OF THE ELEPHANT IS EDUN TOUCHING?

Breaking News: Report: Nigeria ranked 12th poorest country by GDP per capita in 2025 Nigeria has been ranked the 12th poorest country in the world by gross domestic product (GDP) per capita in 2025. This is according to new data from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) published by Visual Capitalist.30 Apr 2025.

THE 2026 BUDGET APPROPRIATION PRESENTED BY ALHAJI TINUBU.

President Bola Tinubu presented Nigeria’s 2026 Budget, themed “Budget of Consolidation, Renewed Resilience and Shared Prosperity,” to a joint session of the National Assembly on December 19, 2025, proposing a spending plan of ₦58.18 trillion focused on economic stability, infrastructure, and security. The presentation involved detailed allocations, including significant funds for defense, infrastructure, education, and health, with an emphasis on disciplined execution and leveraging reforms to boost growth while previous one were in limbo!

AND MEMBERS OF THE SENATE COMMITTEE ON FINANCE ARE UP IN ARMS AGAINST TINUBU IN RESPECT OF OVERLAPPING BUDGETS IN CONNIVANCE WITH NATIONAL ASSEMBLY!

In December 2025 the Senators accused Tinubu’s administration of operating multiple budgets within a single fiscal year, particularly through repeated extensions of capital components meant for a single fiscal year but always rolled over into subsequent years and still without implementation! The bubble burst during an interactive session organized by the Committee on the 2026–2028 Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) and Fiscal Strategy Paper (FSP).

According to them the practice dates back to 2024, when TINUBU surreptitiously operated three budgets simultaneously: the ₦21.8 trillion 2023 budget, the ₦2.17 trillion 2023 supplementary budget, and the ₦28.7 trillion 2024 budget.

The trend continued In 2025, as the capital component of the 2024 budget, originally scheduled to expire in December 2024, was extended twice, first to June 2025 and then to December 2025. As a result, the country is currently running two budgets simultaneously: the extended 2024 budget and the 2025 budget of about N54.2 trillion, WHICH LAWMAKERS RAISED BY N7 BILLION FROM THE PRESIDENT’S INITIAL PROPOSAL!

In a recently issued abridged budget circular widely reported in the media, the federal government directed ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs) to roll over 70 per cent of their 2025 capital allocations into the 2026 fiscal year

At the conclusion of their deliberations, Tinubu was ordered to end the very unacceptable practice unfailingly in 2026!

BEFORE THE DAVOS CONFERENCE!

Mr. Wale Edun addressed the Committee on Federal Revenue performance and disclosed as follows: “Funding for the capital components of the 2024 budget has been met through realization of the total projection of N26 trillion revenue but that of 2025 have not been met . [False]!

“Out of projected N40 trillion revenue for 2025 fiscal year, only N10 trillion have been realized, leaving a shortfall of N30 trillion and consequently, making the federal government roll over 70 per cent of capital projects captured in 2025 fiscal year to 2026,” he said. [True].

The framework proposes an oil benchmark price of $64 per barrel, an exchange rate of ₦1,512 to the dollar, and daily oil production of 2.6 million barrels per day. However, a more conservative production estimate of 1.8 million barrels per day will be adopted for budgeting purposes. [True].

BACK TO SQUARE ONE: None of Tinubu’s Policies have worked and he should remember that every LIE HAS A TERMINAL DATE!

It’s time for the Citizens to call his BLUFF and peacefully demand for the long-awaited PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT THROUGH REFERENDUM!

 [EXPECT A PRIME MINISTER IN NIGERIA NOW!]

RIVERS WILL BURN IF WIKE IS NOT LEACHED!

Why is the erstwhile Governor of Rivers State claiming “ownership” of the Oil-rich region and forbids the ruling Party, All Progressives Congress (APC), to stay clear?

Nyesome Wike’s audacity to challenge his employer, President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria has proved our assertion in a previous Publications that Nigeria is saddled with TWO PRESIDENTS!

An altercation between the APC’s National Secretary and WIKE only attracted the attention of some “big boys” of the Party and NOT HIS CO-PILOT who is holidaying abroad!

How did Wike get away with all the scandals of ownership of massive landed properties in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja and in Florida, the United States of America?

 Why is he very certain that Tinubu would win in 2027?

THE ANSWER LIES IN THE ABUNDANCE OF RIVERS STATE CRUDE OIL TO WHICH HE BELIEVES HE COULD ALWAYS LEVERAGE TO NEGOTIATE BOTH, AT HOME AND ABROAD!

Breaking News?

Did President Donald Trump kidnap or “capture” the incumbent President of Venezuela because of Massive Special Dense Crude Oil Deposit in that country?

WHO SAYS THAT WIKE IS NOT DONALD TRUMP’S ALLY IN NIGERIA?

 WHAT ABOUT WIKE’S GOD SON – SIMINALAYI FUBARA – INCUMBENT RIVERS STATE GOVERNOR?

Siminalayi Fubara is the current Governor of Rivers State, Nigeria, an accountant-turned-politician who rose from the state civil service to become Accountant General before winning the governorship in 2023 under the PDP, later defecting to the APC amidst political challenges, focusing on finance, infrastructure, and reform in his tenure. 

Born January 28, 1975, in Opobo Town, he holds degrees in Accounting, Finance, and an MBA.

AGREEMENT IS AGREEMENT!

[Snippets from Vanguard Report: 10th January 2026].

*Recently, the minister of the Federal  Capital Territory, (FCT), Barr Nyesom Wike and the former factional chairman of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, in Rivers state, Chief Robinson Ewoh, revisited the unpopular peace pact initiated by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu which showcased a roadmap to resolving the political crisis in the state.

*The agreement was reached after the two years crisis between Wike and the State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara which eventually led to the declaration of a state of emergency on March 18, 2025 and lasted six months with a Sole Administrator, Vice Admiral Ibok Etteh Ibas appointed to oversee the affairs of the state.

*THE FIRST PEACE  PACT. 

Brokered on Monday 18th December 2023, was widely condemned by Nigerians who described the deal as lopsided and aimed at arm-twisting the governor.

*At a meeting that had several witnesses including former governor, Dr. Peter Odili and National Security Advise, Nuhu Ribadu among others, several conditions were laid before Governor Fubara.

The conditions included Governor Fubara and his allies withdrawing all court cases relating to the crisis, the State House of Assembly to drop impeachment proceedings initiated against Fubara while the leadership of the House, under Speaker Martin Amaewhule, a Wike loyalist, would be recognized alongside the 27 lawmakers who defected from the Peoples Democratic Party.

Other conditions included Governor Fubara to re-present the 2024 budget to the Amaewhule-led Assembly. Salaries and benefits for all Assembly members and staff to be restored, the Assembly to have autonomy to choose its location and conduct business without interference from the Executive while the Governor would resubmit the names of commissioners who resigned for approval and that the dissolution of local governments should be declared null and void.

Despite the stringent nature of those conditions, Fubara was said to be willing to honor the agreement. When he returned from the peace meeting in Abuja, he met with members of his cabinet and told them what transpired. “I have met with them (Wike team) and I am willing to do anything for peace to be restored in our dear state”

PEACE PACT 2.

*As the crisis raged like a hurricane, President Tinubu again summoned the warring parties; Wike and Fubara, for yet another peace meeting in June last year. 

This time, Fubara was presented with more stringent conditions that he must keep if he wanted peace in the state.

In the new deal, though not officially made public, Governor Fubara was allegedly asked not to nominate any Local Government chairman, he must sack his Chief of Staff (Dr. Edison Ehie) and he must not seek a second term in office among other conditions. Going by this deal, Governor Fubara was like a glorified caretaker governor working as a puppet, heavily supervised by external forces too powerful to contend with.

AGREEMENT NOW OVERTAKEN BY EVENTS.

*Even if the agreement is legal, if there is a force majeure, it negates such agreement”. In this case, the force majeure here is the fact that Governor Fubara has defected from the PDP where the agreement was mooted to APC and it is the responsibility of the new party to accept or reject such agreement.

*If APC gives an automatic ticket to Fubara for a second term, Wike cannot stop it. The present circumstances have created two scenarios for the minister: a sense of fear and that of frustration. This early campaign to the LGAs in the name of “thank you visit” is borne out of fear and frustration.

IMPEACHMENT!

*Meanwhile, on Thursday, 8th January 2026, the Rivers State House of Assembly at its plenary commenced impeachment proceedings against the governor and his deputy, Prof Ngozi Odu for gross misconduct.

*The Impeachment letters, Speaker Martins Amaewhule said, would be transmitted to the governor in seven days.

*According to the Assembly, Fubara’s offences include, reckless and unconstitutional expenditure of public funds contrary to Sections 120, 121 (1)(2) and 122 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended); Hindering or obstructing the Rivers State House of Assembly which is another arm of government; Appointment of persons to occupy offices/positions in the Rivers State Government without allowing for the requirement of screening and confirmation; Seizure of salaries, allowances as well as funds standing to the credit of the legitimate Rivers State House of Assembly, among others!

MILITANTS MUST NOT RETURN TO THE CREEKS!

The story of Crude Oil exploration dates back to the 1980s when it was discovered in commercial quantities in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria.

Economy activities intensified as both foreign portfolio and indigenous investors competed for opportunities to export the “liquid gold” abroad for hard currencies with the Federal Military Government in the lead!

However, the happy-trigger soldiers who were in power had the upper hand through deployment of military hardware to massively export and got super rich in no time to the hurt of the native Youths!

Armed groups emerged in the Niger Delta in the 1990s to protest the marginalization of the region and demanded larger share of the oil wealth because of environmental degradation and a lack of local control over oil resources.

BUT some very daring Youths, identified as the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) became prominent in the 2000s and concentrated on sabotaging oil infrastructure, kidnapping foreign oil workers, and engaging in guerrilla warfare. Their actions significantly reduced Nigeria’s oil production at the time.

A second group emerged: Niger Delta Volunteer Force (NDPVF), led by Mujahid Dokubo-Asari following intensive disagreements on negotiation formulas between Rivers State and the Federal Government which they believed favored the later.

TINUBU MUST CALL WIKE TO ORDER NOW IF HE HAS THE LIVER!

INSANITY PLEA WILL NOT SAVE DONALD TRUMP FROM IMPRISONMENT!

   ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.   

 

 A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria.  {Vol. 15. NO 637. 4th January 2026} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32).  PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

 

INSANITY PLEA WILL NOT SAVE DONALD TRUMP FROM IMPRISONMENT!

In less than 365 days in office, Donald Trump has pulled several stunts, done many crazy things unbefitting of the high and exalted office of the United States of America and seems to be getting a away with them!

To several political observers and commentators, this Trump has actually gone berserk!

He hoodwinked the gullible electorate who now regret voting a Felon to power!

With 130 Executive Orders signed for immediate compliance on his first day on duty (20th January 2025), Donald J. Trump left no one in doubt that he would be very mean and ruthless throughout his second term!

In a ONE-MAN- SHOW, he is ruling Americans with the Iron Fist – without contributions from his Cabinet, Congress or Senate!

He sent all immigrants packing, barricaded desperate Mexicans with several kilometers of Iron Fences and 24-hour security patrol along their common borders!

Apart from his despotic characteristics, Mr. Trump also believes he could Rule the World through unilateral decisions which he believes would always go unchallenged!

1) He meddled in the Gaza -Israel War and attempted to annex the war-ravaged land to the US!

2) Having boasted and failed to stop the Russia-Ukraine War in one day, he brokered an Alaska Peace Treaty with only Mr. Vladmir Putin in attendance – and the war of attrition is still brewing without an end in sight!

3) On international trade relations and agreements Trump reneged, raised Tariffs outrageously to force global partners to dance his tune of “Making America Great Again “!

4) Presently, his new penchant is the criminal invasion of Sovereign Territories, kidnapping of legitimate sitting Presidents and prosecuting them on Trump -Up Charges to ridicule and humiliate them! He just did that with the Venezuelan President Maduro and Wife and is already boasting of carrying out a similar invasion on Columbia soon in order to STEAL their mineral wealth by FORCE!

21ST CENTURY COLONIZATION BY DONALD TRUMP!

Although the US Constitution is premised on man’s inalienable liberty as opposed to the late 15th Century colonialists escapades, Donald Trump’s extremist crusade to “Make America Great Again”, has virtually turned him into an aggressive meddlesome interloper on sovereign States!

He invaded Nigeria on Christmas Day 2025 under the guise of defending “Christian Genocide” without hindrance or protest and on Sunday 4th January 2026, kidnapped the sitting President of Venezuela and Wife from their country – and forcibly flew them to the United States on charges of “narco-terrorism”!

In addition, he is already boasting that Colombia also in the Latin America would be his next target!

Who is Trump trying to impress? *Is it the Republican Grand Old Party (GOP), electorate that have massively demonstrated across the 50 States that he should resign and go to serve sentences for his felonious crimes?

*Or Russia – “birds of a feather”?

*Or the European Nations, which see him as the “extinct Dodo”?

* Or Canada, Ukraine, Mexico, Caribbean or other Latin American Nations which he had forcibly harassed to sign off their mineral wealth at peanuts for some unguaranteed “security against terrorism in their lands”?

WE of the Editorial Board of the Zion B-BC Newsletter strongly believe that DONALD TRUMP’S CRAZY BEHAVIORS ARE  DELIBERATE AND  ORCHESTRATED FOR HIS PHYSICIANS TO DECLARE HIM INSANE AND MENTALLY UNSTABLE WHEN HE WOULD FACE THE JURY AT THE END OF HIS TENURE IN  2028 – BUT IT WILL FAIL!

BREAKING NEWS.

TRUMP ANNOUNCES VENEZUELA TO TRANSFER 30-50 MILLION BARRELS CRUDE OIL TO THE UNITED STATES!

President Trump disclosed that Venezuela’s interim authorities have agreed to “turn over” between 30 and 50 million barrels of oil to the United States. He described the crude as high-quality oil that had been effectively stranded due to years of sanctions, export, and political instability in Venezuela. IT IS ONLY TRUMP THAT IS BLIND TO THE TRUTH - AMERICA’S MILITARY INVINCIBILITY IS WANNING, IT’S FAST FADING!

China has condemned Trump! United Nations has vilified the Bully! Columbian President tells Trump to come and get him if he can!

AL JAZEERA reports that China has called on the United States to immediately release Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro after Washington carried out massive military strikes on the capital, Caracas, as well as other regions, and abducted the leader.

Beijing on Sunday insisted the safety of Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores be a priority, and called on the US to “stop toppling the government of Venezuela”, calling the attack a “clear violation of international law“.

It was the second statement issued by China since Saturday, after US President Donald Trump said Washington had taken Maduro and his wife and flown them out of the country.

On Saturday, Beijing slammed the US for “hegemonic acts” and “blatant use of force” against Venezuela and its president, urging Washington to abide by the United Nations charter.

China is Venezuela’s largest buyer of oil, Mok added, although the country accounts for only 4-5 percent of its total oil imports. Beyond energy, he said, China has growing trade and investment interests across Latin America, meaning Beijing is paying close attention to political shifts in the region.

BETWEEN MADURO AND DONALD TRUMP WHO IS A FELON – TERRORIST!

MADURO’S BIOGRAPHY: Britanica.com

Nicolás Maduro Moros (born 23 November 1962) is a Venezuelan politician and former union leader who served as the president of Venezuela from 2013 until his de facto removal from power by the United States in January 2026, following his capture and extraction from the country.

He won special election held in April 2013 to choose a replacement to serve out the remainder of the term of Venezuelan Pres. Hugo Chávez, who had died in March. 

He was vice president (October 2012–March 2013), a former labor leader.

 He was reelected in 2018 and his administration was marked by increasing authoritarianism. Repeated efforts by the opposition to remove him from office, and mounting international pressure, including a 2020 indictment by the United States on drug trafficking-related charges, which Maduro rejected as politically motivated failed.

Despite these challenges, Maduro remained in power and in 2024 claimed victory in another presidential election that was disputed by opposition groups and several foreign governments. On January 3, 2026, Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were captured by United States forces. Maduro faces charges of narco-terrorism, cocaine trafficking, and possession of machine guns and destructive devices against the U.S.

But Maduro says ‘I was captured’ as he pleads not guilty to drug trafficking charges • Jan. 5, 2026.

Court documents accuse Maduro of overseeing a ‘corrupt, illegitimate government that, for decades, has leveraged government power to protect and promote illegal activity, including drug trafficking’.

Donald Trump declared at a press conference that his administration is “going to run the country until such time that we can do a safe, proper and judicious transition”

Trump said the US plans to work with Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez, Maduro’s second-in-command.

DONALD TRUMP’S BIOGRAPHY: Britanica.com

Donald Trump (born June 14, 1946, New York, New York, U.S.) is the 45th and 47th president of the United States (2017–21; 2025–). 

Following his inauguration on January 20, 2025, Trump became only the second president to serve two nonconsecutive terms, the first being Grover Cleveland (1885–89; 1893–97). 

IN JANUARY 2025, UPON HIS SENTENCING WITHOUT PUNISHMENT FOR A FELONY CONVICTION IN 2024, TRUMP OFFICIALLY BECAME THE FIRST CONVICTED FELON TO BE ELECTED PRESIDENT.  

With his election at age 78, Trump became the oldest person to win the office.

TRUMP’S CONVICTION TOOK PLACE ON MAY 30, 2024, WHEN A NEW YORK STATE JURY FOUND HIM GUILTY ON 34 FELONY COUNTS OF FALSIFYING BUSINESS RECORDS IN  CONNECTION WITH A HUSH PAYMENT IN 2016 TO THE ADULT-FILM STAR STEPHANIE CLIFFORD, KNOWN AS  STORMY DANIELS, WHO CLAIMED TO  HAVE HAD AN AFFAIR WITH TRUMP IN 2006. HE HAD ALSO BEEN INDICTED ON DOZENS OF OTHER FEDERAL AND STATE CHARGES IN  CASES RELATING TO  HIS EFFORTS TO OVERTURN HIS DEFEAT IN  THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 2020 AND HIS REMOVAL OF NUMEROUS CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS FROM THE WHITE HOUSE UPON LEAVING OFFICE. Following Trump’s election to a second term, special counsel Jack Smith, who led both federal criminal cases against Trump, requested that the election-related charges against Trump be dropped and that Trump be removed from the group of co-defendants in the classified documents case.

 Smith’s decisions reflected a Justice Department policy that prohibits the criminal prosecution of a sitting president.

TRUMP WAS ALSO FOUND LIABLE IN A MAJOR CIVIL SUIT ALLEGING BUSINESS FRAUD IN  NEW YORK STATE AND IN TWO CIVIL SUITS ACCUSING HIM OF  SEXUALLY ABUSING AND DEFAMING THE WRITER E. JEAN CARROLL.

 And this is the writing that was written on the wall, “MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.” (Daniel.5:25-27). King James Version (KJV).

Donald Trump is so drunken with transient power! He could hardly see His Disastrous End!

HAS NUHU RIBADU REPLACED BOLA TINUBU AS COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF?

   ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.

 A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria. {Vol. 14. NO 636. 28th December 2025} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32). PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

HAS NUHU RIBADU REPLACED BOLA TINUBU AS COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF?

[2026 NEW YEAR EDITION]

In over 72 hours after Donald Trump’s bombing of an alleged “ISIS Desert Camp” in Sokoto North West Nigeria, neither Mr. NSA, Nuhu Ribadu nor the US Government was forthcoming on details of the very embarrassing “collaborative” military braggadocio!

BUT The Leadership Newspaper says it has it on good authority that a second round of bombings would now be focused on the North East and Chad Basin Area where ISWAP Camps have been identified and named a certain Brant Phillip, a Sahel-focused Terrorism racket as its source.

AND the Presidency which at the initial stages of Donald Trump’s threat to destroy all forms of genocidal attacks on Nigerian Christians pledged to protect the nation’s sovereignty also became mute until the American President claimed SOLO VICTORY over the Christmas Day Bombings before interjecting that the Operation was “A COLLABO”!

The Leadership Newspaper had a field day until an ARISE TV Correspondent visited Tangaza, Sokoto on Sunday 28th December to broadcast live information from the theatre of the US military intervention.

There was no information that Nigerian Ground Forces participated in the exercise neither was there mention of collateral damages, casualties or Prisoners of War (POWS), or any video coverage.

However residents engaged in their businesses in peace according to the video posted on Internet.

The Reporter claimed that residents saw terrorists fleeing the area after the devastating explosion which official sources had earlier classified simply as successful!

The Leadership informant Mr. Brant Phillp also claimed that the United States has resumed intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) operations over Nigeria’s north-east region, targeting militants in the Sambisa Forest on Saturday, 21st December and shared a flight-tracking data showing a US aircraft flying over Borno State.

WHAT WAS NIGERIA’S COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF’S ROLE THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE MILITARY OPERATION?

 Social Media Reports claimed that the renewed US engagement came just weeks after National Security Adviser (NSA), Malam Nuhu Ribadu, met with US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth in Washington amid growing tension over President Donald Trump’s threats of military intervention in Nigeria.

After that meeting, Hegseth was quoted to have said the US Department of Defence would work “aggressively” with Nigeria to end what he described as the “persecution of Christians by jihadist terrorists.”

AND IN THE MIDST OF THIS JEOPARDY THE C-IN-C OF NIGERIA’S ARMED FORCES, PRESIDENT BOLA TINUBU ABRUPTLY DEPARTED FOR ANNUAL LEAVE IN FRANCE AND ABU DHABI!

Breaking News Report:

STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE.

PRESIDENT TINUBU LEAVES FOR EUROPE.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu departed Lagos on Sunday, December 28, for Europe, continuing his end-of-year break and ahead of his official trip to Abu Dhabi, in the United Arab Emirates.

His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates, has invited President Tinubu to participate in the 2026 edition of Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW 2026) Summit, which will take place in the emirate early in January.

 The week-long summit is an annual event that mobilizes leaders from government, business, and society to chart the next era of sustainable development.

 With the theme “The Nexus of Next: All Systems Go”, ADSW will connect ambition with action across innovation, finance, and people, showcasing how the world can move forward with confidence.’

The President will return to the country after the Summit.

Bayo Onanuga

Special Adviser to the President

(Information & Strategy)

December 28, 2025.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s departure to Europe for an end-of-year break before proceeding to Abu Dhabi has generated mixed reactions.

Many Nigerians criticized the timing, citing recent attacks in Sokoto and Zamfara States, ongoing economic hardship, and the frequency of his foreign travel.

 But the president’s special adviser defended the trip, stating it includes an official invitation to the 2026 Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week summit. However critics argue that the trip shows insensitivity given the nation’s challenges and that the president should have stayed in Nigeria.

The Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW) 2026, including the main ADSW Summit and the World Future Energy Summit (WFES), runs from January 11 to January 17, 2026, with the core Summit events happening from January 13-15 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC).

The week kicks off with the IRENA Assembly (Jan 11-12) and culminates in various forums and summits, focusing on energy transition, climate finance, and sustainable development.

DONALD TRUMP “MUST MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN” THROUGH CORRUPT NIGERIAN LEADERS!

Donald Trump’s obsessive interest in Nigeria is not about stopping genocidal war against Christians but on how to tactfully harness the immense mineral resources – especially URANIUM- as WE had published in our Newsletter Edition Vol.14.No.628 of 2nd November 2025.

Donald Trump’s administration has negotiated various agreements related to securing access to natural resources, particularly critical minerals, with at least 15 countries, often linking these deals to trade, economic cooperation, and in some cases, security assistance.

The countries and jurisdictions involved in these arrangements include:

Argentina, Cambodia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Indonesia, South Korea, Switzerland and Liechtenstein, the United Kingdom, and the European Union.

These entities were part of a larger group that had “closed deals confirmed by both parties” as of November 2025, which included provisions related to trade and supply chains, some involving natural resources.

Australia and Japan: Signed more advanced “critical minerals frameworks” with the U.S. that include substantial financial commitments for joint projects and efforts to curb Chinese acquisition of mining assets.

Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Rwanda: The U.S. brokered a peace deal between the DRC and Rwanda, with Trump indicating that the U.S. would gain access to “a lot of the mineral rights from the Congo” as part of the arrangement, which also involved discussions of U.S. military assistance to the DRC.

Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam: Signed memorandums of understanding (MOUs) focused on diversifying critical mineral supply chains, with Malaysia agreeing not to ban or impose quotas on exports of these materials to the U.S..

Ukraine: The U.S. and Ukraine entered into a landmark minerals deal potentially giving the U.S. preferential rights to key natural resources like graphite, titanium, and lithium, in return for continued U.S. support and a joint reconstruction investment fund.

Additionally, lobbying efforts connected to Trump-linked firms have involved other resource-rich nations like Angola, Pakistan, Somalia, and Haiti, with some offering resource opportunities in exchange for potential U.S. support or the lifting of sanctions. Discussions were also pursued with resource-rich Central Asian countries (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan) and the idea of acquiring Greenland for its resources was also floated.

Trump-linked firms make millions from aid-deprived nations.

FOR THE UMPTEENTH TIME WE DEMAND THAT NUHU RIBADU BE DISCHARGED AND REPLACED WITH A SEASONED MILITARY OFFICER OF A BRIGADIER GENERAL OR ABOVE TO ACTUALIZE MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY IN THE ARMED FORCES OF NIGERIA.

As for Alhaji TINUBU, he may run from pillar to post BUT he cannot hide from his Creator WHO very soon WILL demand account of his Stewardship – whether Good or Bad!

FEDERATION OF CAPITALISTS AND TALAKAWAS (FCT) SEATED ON GUN-POWDER KEG!

   ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.   

 

 A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria.  {Vol. 14. NO 635. 27th December 2025} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32).  PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

 

FEDERATION OF CAPITALISTS AND TALAKAWAS (FCT) SEATED ON GUN-POWDER KEG!

[2025 CHRISTMAS EDITION].

The United States Declaration of Independence Document unequivocally states that: “All men are created equal….” and have inherent rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness and are born with equal opportunities, an affirmation of absolute and  unfettered liberty of its citizens.

The Declaration of Independence (1776, written by Thomas Jefferson and influenced by enlightenment ideas, declared Colonists’ right to self-governance and asserted equal rights for all people against British Rule. 

It posits that no one is inherently born to rule over others and all individuals possess certain unalienable rights. 

POWER BELONGS TO THE PEOPLE BUT ARE NIGERIAN MEN BORN EQUAL?

According to the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria :

Section 14.(1) “The Federal Republic of Nigeria shall be a State based on the principles of democracy and social justice.

(2) It is hereby, accordingly, declared that:

(a) Sovereignty belongs to the people of Nigeria from whom government through this Constitution derives all its powers and authority;

(b) The security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government: and 

(3) The participation by the people in their government shall be ensured in accordance with the provisions of this Constitution.

But long before the 1999 Constitution, Nigeria was under 30 years of martial administration which completely became neo-colonialist following the discovery of Crude Oil in the Niger Delta Region and there emerged a motley crowd of Oil billionaires who formed a very powerful cabal and possessed the soul of the nation. 

 In the process of time the Capital City of Lagos could not contain the rivalry of stupendous wealth of the political players and a Virgin Land had to be acquired.

The choice of a Central location in the very heart of the country was the ideal and must be urgently carved out for the big players to spread their wings.

They militarized their desire through FIAT and drove out virtually all indigenes out of their ancestral homes, occupied large chunks of the massive land (unrestricted) and subsequently laid claims as OWNERS OF NIGERIA (OON)!

These big shots have their wealth stacked in foreign currencies with which they always held the economy by the jugular – and they are untouchable?

Presently, not less than three quarters of the geographic land mass of the FEDERATION OF CAPITALISTS AND TALAKAWAS (FCT), are securely in the firm grip of these very powerful bloc!

This FCT is reminiscent of THE ANIMAL FARM, a Constituency where some Animals are more equal than the others!

Of its 3.8 million conservative mixed-multitude population  estimate, less than 2,000 are members of the prestigious elite club of the OON who occupy all the top positions in government: Presidency, Legislature, Ministries Departments and Agencies (MDAS), and own all choice houses and landed properties in the FCT!

IT IS IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN THAT ONE SERVING SENATOR AMONG 469 LEGISLATORS OWNS 51 CHOICE HOUSES AND UNSPECIFIED LANDED PROPERTIES IN ABUJA CITY APART FROM THOSE IN HIS SENATORIAL DISTRICT!

QUESTION: How many do the other 468 possess? What about past and present FCT Ministers and Senators? No wonder, the Federal Government of Nigeria always appropriated larger chunk of annual budgets on payment of salaries, allowances and other crazy emoluments on the elite members of the Animal Farm to the DETRIMENT of the TALAKAWAS – the Hewers of Woods and Drawers of Water!

THE MILITARY EVENTUALLY TRANSITED FROM UNITARY TO PRESIDENTIAL SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT TO PERPETRATE ILLICIT WEALTH AND KEEP THE TALAKAWAS IN PERPETUAL SLAVERY!

The  Federation of Capitalists and Talakawas (FCT), Nigeria was established in 1976 by late General Murtala Mohammed under the guise of centralizing the government to replace a congested Lagos State!

Although the intention was historically fulfilled in 1991 when Abuja became the new seat of government, the real purpose of CAPITALIST EXPANSION WAS VEILED IN SECRECY!

Nigeria’s Federation of Capitalists and Talakawas (FCT) has had about 13 Ministers since its inception with Chief Mobolaji Ajose-Adeogun (1976) and continuing through military and democratic eras with figures like Gado Nasko, Jeremiah Useni, Nasir El-Rufai, Bala Mohammed, Mohammed Musa Bello, and currently Nyesom Wike, covering military rule, the Third Republic, and the Fourth Republic. 

THERE WERE ALSO FCT SENATORS FROM MILITARY TO DATE.

While the Federation of Capitalists and Talakawas (FCT), had a military Minister Major General Mamman Vatsa, the Senators lists consisted of civilian senators since 2003 to include Isa Maina, Adamu Sidi Ali, Philips Aduda, and currently Mrs. Ireti Kingibe.

CAUSES OF THE LOOMING WAR!

1. It’s been 19 agonizing months of the change of baton from “frying pan into fire” – Buhari to Tinubu!

2. Like his predecessor, President Tinubu was only after the prestigious title and not the rigors of office.

3. Sudden removal of fuel subsidy, merger of forex regime without any form of palliatives in place was designed for the TALAKAWAS to commit economic suicide!

4. Daily per capita workers income is now less than USD $250 dollars at an exchange rate of almost NGN2, 000 naira to one dollar!

5. Tinubu claims to save at least ONE TRILLION NAIRA MONTHLY from removal of fuel subsidy at inauguration on 29th May 2023 and the country is over burdened with both Internal and External Loans as follows: As of Q2 2025 (June 30th), Nigeria’s total public debt hit approximately ₦152.39 trillion (around $99.65 billion USD), an increase from Q1’s ₦149.38 trillion, with domestic debt slightly exceeding external debt, according to data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS). The debt comprises about ₦71.84 trillion external and ₦80.55 trillion domestic, with Lagos State leading sub-national debt, highlighting ongoing borrowing for fiscal stability. 

6. This head of the capitalist cabal had been on Spending Spree from inception through the purchase of a new Aircraft at the cost of USD$100 billion dollars or NGN160 billion naira and had virtually toured the entire Universe in 19 months!

7. TINUBU’S 2026 APPROPRIATION BILL, now joins the stable of the 2023-2025 yet to be fully-implemented deficit annual budgets! In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday, 19th December, 2025, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Bayo Onanuga, stated that the expected total revenue for the 2026 fiscal year is ₦34.33tn, while total expenditure is projected at ₦58.18tn, including ₦15.52tn earmarked for debt servicing. HE ADDED THAT RECURRENT (non-debt) EXPENDITURE IS ESTIMATED AT ₦15.25tn, WHILE CAPITAL EXPENDITURE WILL AMOUNT TO ₦26.08tn. Onanuga disclosed that the budget deficit is expected to be ₦23.85tn, representing 4.28 per cent of the country’s Gross Domestic Product. FOR THE CAPITALIST CABAL FROM INCEPTION, IT HAD ALWAYS BEEN DEFICIT BUDGET AND INFINITESIMAL ALLOCATION TO CAPITAL EXPENDITURE! Imagine the paltry sum of NGN26.08tn allocated for Capital Projects in a Country that has been DOLLARIZED BY ALHAJI TINUBU! (NGN2,000 TO ONE USD$ DOLLAR)! AND YET THIS CAPITALIST HAVING PERFORMED SO WOEFULLY IN 19 MONTHS NOW STRATEGIZES TO CONTEST AND WIN THE 2027 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION!

8. In his CHRISTMAS MESSAGE to the nation, President Tinubu, who rode on the  back of CHRISTIAN VOTES to power in 2023 in spite of his audacious choice of MUSLIM-MUSLIM TICKET pleaded for Religious Tolerance and Abstinence from alcoholic drinks. These are misplaced insinuations; Nigerian Christians are the SANEST in the World!

WE of the Editorial Board of the Zion B-BC Newsletter in the past 13 years had warned past administrations to desist from taking the CITIZENS FOR GRANTED in order to avoid the UNPALATABLE CONSEQUENCES THAT WOULD BEFALL THEM!

The opportunity is still open for The TINUBU Administration to listen to the voice of reason before it is too late!

TINUBU SHOULD ADOPT THE VIRTUALLY INEXPENSIVE ONE - HOUSE PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT TO REPLACE THE ROGUISH CAPITALIST SYSTEM THAT ENCOURAGES CONTINUOUS ROBBERY OF BOTH THE SINGLE TREASURY AND FEDERATION ACCOUNTS!

Oga TINUBU is hereby warned once again to “Fear the Nigerian People”, NOT the Soldiers!

“A word is sufficient for the Wise.”

[EXPECT A PRIME MINISTER IN NIGERIA NOW!]

If you have not accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour, don’t miss this great opportunity as you pray  this prayer: Lord Jesus; I confess that I am a sinner who needs to be saved through the grace of the New Testament in your Blood, shed on the Cross at Calvary; I renounce every sin in my life and accept you as my Lord and personal Saviour.
