SUCCESSION TO PRIME MINISTER STOOL DOES NOT REQUIRE NGN100 MILLION NAIRA PRICE!

SUCCESSION TO PRIME MINISTER STOOL DOES NOT REQUIRE NGN100 MILLION NAIRA PRICE!

Buhari’s Presidency MUST be the last in Nigeria! The 56-year-old Presidential System has virtually destroyed the thin line of UNITY IN DIVERSITY for over 500 tribes and 250 languages!

Presidency is not the cup of tea for a developing country such as Nigeria. It’s introduction birthed all manner of social malaise due to inability of successive governments to fulfil their obligations in respect of citizens' fundamental rights – to quality education, employment opportunities, modern health facilities, potable water, good accommodation etc, because the system is TOO EXPENSIVE AND TOO INSTITUTIONALLY CORRUPTED due to monetary attraction!!

THE PRESIDENTIAL SYSTEM GAVE BIRTH TO BOKO HARAM TERRORISM WHICH FROM 2009-2022 HAD CLAIMED OVER 500,000 LIVES WITHOUT MILITARY SOLUTION!

The choice of presidential system of government by the military which ruled Nigeria for almost 30 years was a deliberate plan to cover up all military atrocities especially in respect of TREASURY LOOTING! 

The Nigerian kind of Presidency has manifested both as bane and curse for the downtrodden Citizens to whom “sovereignty constitutionally belongs” according to the bequeathed 1999.

In the pseudo democratic experiment foisted in 1999, the first President was a retired Military General Olusegun Aremu Obasanjo signalling the fact that a DIARCHY would be the trend!

Ex President Obasanjo neither queried nor castigated retired General Abdulsalam Abubakar who handed over on behalf of past military regimes an alleged foreign debt profile of USD$35billion dollars and infrastructural decay of socio-economic institutions on assumption of office in 1999!

 In a well-orchestrated propaganda Obasanjo’s Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), was credited to have succeeded in negotiating debt forgiveness from international creditors between 2005/2006 during his 8-year tenure government from 1999-2007! It was said to be debt buy-back with the Paris Club and the London Club.

Nigeria was forgiven USD$18 billion dollars after it paid USD$12.6 billion dollars in tranches.

Who amassed the debts but the military leadership of THREE DECADES?
Therefore, in 2015, after 16 years of governance and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), lost the Presidency to the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nigerians were informed that the past administration left behind an almost empty treasury and a total debt burden: foreign debt stock was USD 10.31 billion dollars while domestic funds that was NGN 8.39 trillion!
However by December 2020 it stood at NGN16.02 trillion and NGN19.24 trillion according to DMO statistics.

WHAT HAS MAJOR GENERAL PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI DONE IN 7 YEARS TO AMELIORATE THE PRESENT STATE OF INSECURITY AND ANARCHY IN NIGERIA?

General buhari was believed to be frugal, prudent and a passionate leader who had empathy for the downtrodden known as TALAKAWAS and would be merciless to all those bad and corrupt politicians who had brought Nigeria into disrepute among the comity of Nations.

The expectation of Nigerians was very high in that Buhari being a former military general and commander-in-chief of the armed forces will bring his great experiences to bear on the polity and deal ruthlessly with terrorists who had already gained an upper hand as at the time he won the presidential election in 2015!

The incumbent president is a member of the diarchy which were there in government from the 60s when soldiers overran the Democratic Government and installed themselves in power till date. Therefore it will be thoughtless and fruitless to expect one of the members of the junta to perform any miracle in office as it were!

In seven years Buhari's APC Government has through the rubber-stamp SENATE has turned into an addicted borrower and has been borrowing without any consideration for the future generations of Nigeria.

As mentioned earlier, Nigeria does not produce anything other than crude oil as export for the international market but always spends more than 90% of its revenue annually on debt-servicing alone and having nothing left for Capital projects, always borrowed to pay workers monthly salaries!
According to the debt management office report Nigeria's debt burden is set to peak at NGN45 trillion naira this year 2022 which signifies a dangerous trend in economic management.

LIST OF INJURIES INFLICTED ON NIGERIA AND NIGERIANS THROUGH THE PRESIDENTIAL SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT!

1) Nigeria as an independent, evolving and developing democracy in 1960 opted for a parliamentary system of government suited for the new nation but the military toppled the administration of Alhaji Tafawa Balewa in January 1966 in a coup d’état and truncated the nascent democracy!
2) The military wasted no time to install themselves permanently to rule for about 30 years and one of them even assumed the title of PRESIDENT while he was head of state and introduced large-scale corruption, squander mania, stealing and all manner of financial atrocities through military fiat and got away with it? Military Dictator President Ibrahim Babangida is yet to account for the OIL WINDFALL OF USD$12.4 billion made by Nigeria during the 1999 Gulf War
3) In 62 years as an independent nation Nigeria can only boast of one export produce - CRUDE OIL- the foreign exchange earner which had made diversification to agriculture and other mineral natural resources that abound in the country very impossible till date!
4) The Nigerian kind of PRESIDENTIAL SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT lays emphasis on building personalities instead of strong institutions, refuses to embrace the policy of HUMAN CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT but thrives in massive unemployment figures of able-bodied men and women, and nursing millions of illiterate out of school street children – especially the Almajiri group of children who migrate from State to State begging for alms and food!

DO THE NIGERIAN PEOPLE HAVE ANY HUMAN RIGHTS ACCORDING TO THE 1999 CONSTITUTION?

Although the money-gulping presidential constitution listed about 14 items in Chapter IV -Fundamental Rights to the Citizens, ALL OF THE RIGHT FROM 1999-2022 HAVE BEEN MERE PAPER EXPRESSIONS AND HAVE NOT BEEN BINDING BETWEEN THE SUCCESSIVE GOVERNMENTS AND THE PEOPLE OF NIGERIA

 RIGHT to life, right to dignity of human person, Right to personal liberty, Right to fair hearing, Right to private and family life, Right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion, Right to freedom of expression and the Press, Right to peaceful assembly and association, Right to freedom of movement, Right to freedom from discrimination, Right to acquire and own immovable property anywhere in Nigeria, compulsory acquisition of property, restriction on and derogation on fundamental rights, Special jurisdiction of High Court and legal aid ARE PSEUDO PROMISES BY UNRIGHTEOUS POLITICIANS!

Unlike the United States Constitution which Nigerian political leaders claimed to have copied, HUMAN LIVES ARE PRIORITISED, SACRED AND VALUED In a System that cherishes the establishment of very strong and reliable institutions which out-live all politicians and all presidents!

The diarchy between soldiers and civilians in Nigeria from 1966 to 2022 and the introduction of presidential system of government which is anathema to developing nations has to be TERMINATED WITH MUHAMMADU BUHARI’S REGIME! 

Nigeria will produce a PRIME MINISTER IN 2023 WITH A BRAND NEW UNICAMERAL PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUTION!

‘YEMI OSINBAJO IS AN INTELLECTUAL GAME CHANGER – NOT A DESPERATE POLITICAL JOBBER.

ZION B-BC   NEWSLETTER.   

(Looking at Nigeria and the World's Political System From a Godly Perspective).

A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria {Vol. 11.NO 453. 17th April, 2022.} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32).  PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

‘YEMI OSINBAJO IS AN INTELLECTUAL GAME CHANGER – NOT A DESPERATE POLITICAL JOBBER. 
[EASTER EDITION YEAR 2022]

Presidential candidates of the All Progressives Congress eyeing the prestigious number one position in 2023 claimed they were not surprised that Vice President 'Yemi Osinbajo had joined the race because they saw it coming.

In an interview with Channel’s Television President Buhari revealed that he had an anointed candidate but would not disclose his identity so that he would NOT “be killed before his time!” However, Osinbajo is not Buhari’s SECRET CHOICE!

Vice President Osinbajo on Monday 11th April 2022 declared via internet portals that he had decided to join the race and become the next president of Nigeria if voted by the citizens but the content of his submissions is difficult to verify as truth and nothing but the truth – being an accomplished academic he was subtly PARADOXICAL! 

OSINBAJO WAS ACTING PRESIDENT (7th May - 19th August, 2017.

It is historical record that in the past SEVEN YEARS, President Buhari had spent not less than 214 days for health challenges which kept him away from office at different times while his vice president acted as president and performed creditably in spite of the fact that the Cabal had no respect for his instructions even during challenging times of two economic recessions almost back to back!

The Vice President as constitutional Chairman of National Economic Council, (NEC), commissioned the Economic Recovery Growth Plan (ERGP), and wasted no time to confront and overcome the economic downturn that could have embarrassed the nation abysmally! 

He also functioned effectively as Chairman Governing Body of National Emergency Agency (NEMA), Chairman National Boundary Commission/Border Communities Development Agencies, the Niger Delta Holdings Company - a limited liability company owned by the three tiers of government and his brainchild, the Special Intervention Programs (SIP), which comprises the Trader Money Scheme, and N-Power/School Feeding Programs and others with professionalism and dexterity.

BUHARI’S HIDDEN AGENDA OF DECEIT AND PENCHANT FOR NEPOTISM EXPOSED IN THE SECOND TERM

When President Buhari eventually assumed office before the 2019 General Elections, he showered encomiums and praises on his Vice and described as a faithful Son but shortly after the victory according to the prophecy of the Servant of God in Zion, President Major General Muhammadu Buhari showed his true colour as a tribalist and religious bigot who only believes in ideologies proffered by members of his old Clan and Cabal.

In August 2019 he disbanded the Economic Monitoring Team (EMT), chaired by the Vice President and commissioned a new economic team christened; Economic Advisory Council (EAC), “with a view to achieving quicker implementation and eliminate bureaucratic bottlenecks in his second and last time” but surreptitiously stripped Osinbajo of his constitutionally assigned duties.

The new body was to sideline the Vice President and report directly to the Major General on economic policy, fiscal analysis, economic growth and a range of internal and global economic issues in collaboration with relevant cabinet members and head of monetary and physical agencies.

However EMT under Osinbajo’s watch performed creditably well in spite of the self-inflicted economic recessions forced on the nation by the failed Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), corrupt and woeful maladministration of 16 years, but with Buhari’s clandestine move, the new EAC was to claim all successes of the Economic Sector to further discredit the Vice President and alienate him from any ambition of succeeding his principal in 2023!

In addition to the Vice President’s debacle and disrespect to the Number Two Citizen, all the welfare programs previously under his purview and supervision were transferred to the newly created Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Management and Social Development
 and not less than 35 personnel in his office were transferred to Ministries, Departments and Agencies with a view to crippling the smooth administration which had gained attention of members of the AGGRIEVED PUBLIC who flooded his office with DIVERSE PETITIONS!

It should be recalled that ex-President Aremu Obasanjo in the year 2000 in a PRESIDENTIAL FIAT gave a window of opportunity to SEEK REDRESS for all forms of INJUSTICE perpetrated against CITIZENS throughout ALL MILITARY DISPENSATIONS and many PETITIONERS were duly redressed during his eight-year tenure.

However, successive Administrations shut the door against all forms of petitions – OLD OR NEW – in spite of the claim that GOVERNANCE IS A CONTINUUM – until Vice President Osinbajo created fresh opportunity for PETITIONERS!
BUT THE IDEA DID NOT GO DOWN WELL WITH MAJOR GENERAL BUHARI WHO COMMITTED THE WORST HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSES DURING HIS SHORT ADMINISTRATION OF 22 MONTHS AND HE HAS SUCCESSFULLY STIFLED THE FRESH OPPORTUNITY!

THE PROVIDENTIAL EMERGENCE OF OSINBAJO!
The emergence of Osinbajo as Buhari’s running mate in 2014 was providential because he and Buhari met for the first time shortly before Osinbajo’s name was forwarded to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), as Buhari’s running mate, a few hours to the closure of submissions! And Buhari was told that Osinbajo’s wife, ‘Dolapo, is a grand-daughter of the late sage and political heavyweight, Chief Obafemi Awolowo of blessed memories! 

From all events of the past seven years it is very glaring that Buhari had never been comfortable with such a cerebral for an assistant especially when he was accused by the opposition of possessing a forged school certificate which he presented as his educational qualification to INEC!

The cabal with which Buhari surrounded himself always by-passed his Vice President at every given opportunity when he Buhari was outside of the country for medical treatment! They would rather travel to meet Buhari on his sick bed in London to append his signature on crucial documents rather than pass them to Osinbajo for signature! 

AND AT NO TIME DID BUHARI SEND THE CHARLATANS BACK TO HIS VICE PRESIDENT WHO WAS ACTING ON HIS BEHALF BECAUSE HIS HANDLERS TOLD HIM THAT HE COULD RULE NIGERIA FROM ANY PART OF THE WORLD! 

But in spite of all his travails OSINBAJO BLUNTLY REJECTED TO BE LABELED AS A SPARE TYRE! 

OSINBAJO IS ON THE PROWL TO KEEP PREDATORS IN CHECK!

Vice President ’Yemi Osinbajo is an erudite scholar, a cerebral - at different times in his 65 years existence on planet Earth - was Commissioner for Justice and Attorney General of Lagos State, he is a professor and teacher of law, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), he is a Pastor, an accomplished family man and presently the second in command to President Muhammadu Buhari for the past seven years of APC Administration.
‘Yemi Osinbajo had deliberately thrown his hat into the ring to increase the Fireworks! ‘Yemi Osinbajo is not interested in becoming the President of Nigeria  - at least NOT NOW! ‘Yemi Osinbajo did not state in his declaration speech that he was PRESSURED by anyone or group of persons! He has no notable political structure across the nation!

ANALYSIS OF VICE PRESIDENT OSINBAJO’S DECLARATION SPEECH!

In his opening paragraph, he described General Muhammadu Buhari as a true Nigerian patriot, a servant of the nation in war and peace and a man of integrity. True or false? FALSE!
*He said he has garnered enough experience from the incumbent to take over the number one seat having worked together and focused to secure the country, provide infrastructure and growing the economy. True or false? FALSE! 
*He has served the government in several capacities represented Nigeria in sensitive high level International engagements; Has practically been to order 774 local government areas of the Federation and had listened two divers experiences and yearnings of the downtrodden. True or false? TRUE.
*Has visited Nigeria’s gallant troops in the northeast, the various IDP Camps idp camps people devastated and victims of violent country conflict terrorist attacks flooding fire and other disasters has been to the homes of many ordinary Nigerians in various parts of the country and have spoken too small and large businesses. True or false? True.

*The Vice President also said that if given a chance he will ensure that he completed what he started with his principal by  radically transforming security and Intelligence architecture in order to be able to actualize other social promises which included reform of justice system, advancing infrastructural development especially power roads, railways and broadband connectivity, agricultural revolution through mechanization and enhancing Social Investment Programme (SIP), as a full scale social welfare scheme. 
Feasible or not? Not feasible under the current SEIGE OF INSECURITY!

*He also promised to complete the lifting 100 million Nigerians out of poverty within the decade,  ensure that all Nigerians attend school, reforming the educational sector and completing the task of all universal health coverage, strengthening State and Local Governments to deliver on their respective mandates but above all to ensure provision of jobs for the young people.

GENERAL COMMENTS:

Well said Prof but how do you intend to carry out all these highfaluting promises because the entire declaration is bereft of how you want to tackle the intransigent insecurity situation that the 36 States of the Federation and the Federal Capital Territory are grappling with.

 It seems that you and your principal have run out of ideas or that he did not listen to you as usual because he is a Major General and believes he has monopoly of warfare and solution to the kind of hit and run tactics which the terrorists and the criminals are adopting on daily basis!

You are seeking support of all Nigerians, young, old and those in the diaspora to support you and work with you so that a collective “Nigerian Dream could materialize in a few short years with much speed, intentionality and perseverance towards the vision of a prosperous stable and secure nation.”

Let me ask you one question Prof. you have been in government for SEVEN YEARS without solution to all the nagging security and other social issues most importantly CORRUPTION of the worst order; what now makes you think that Nigerians want to be governed by a former Vice President who has failed to fulfill his party's manifestos and promises? CAN YOU WALK THE TALK PROF?

BUHARI’S (2019) NATIONAL SECURITY STRATEGY DOCUMENT, IS A PAPER TIGER!

ZION B-BC   NEWSLETTER.   

(Looking at Nigeria and the World's Political System From a Godly Perspective).

A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria {Vol. 11.NO 452. 10th April, 2022.} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32).  PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

BUHARI’S (2019) NATIONAL SECURITY STRATEGY DOCUMENT, IS A PAPER TIGER!

Nigeria’s Security Roadmap Document is a strategic policy paper usually published by the Office of the National Security Adviser to the President every five years to improve administrative thrust in all areas of national development, investment growth and prosperity in spite of the persistent offensive security challenges!

When President Major General Muhammadu Buhari assumed office in 2015, he wasted no time to entrench his manifesto which was predicated on three planks: First, assurance of adequate and very tight security against all forms of insurgency terrorism vandalism kidnappings etc for citizens will dwell in safety.
Second he emphasized war against corruption in all its ramifications and Third he laid premium thrust on the economy to boost local and foreign investment portfolios by encouraging ease of doing business to eradicate poverty.

However, in spite of the fact that in his first four years in office, institutional corruption was aggravated, Buhari still won the 2019 Presidential Election to serve a second term according to prophecy of the Servant of God in Zion.

TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL (TI), SCORED NIGERIA VERY LOW IN THE YEAR 2020.

In the year 2020 transparency International corruption perception index ranking which scored Nigeria only 25% did not surprise social critics political watchers and patriotic citizens at home and abroad because it was very glaring is that all the noises made by the major general before the 2015 elections was all braggadocio! 

In that year Denmark and New Zealand topped the index chart with 88 points while Syria, Somalia and South Sudan came last with 14, 12 and 12 points respectively.
Nigeria scored 26 points out of 100 in the 2019 corruption perception index reported by TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL but between 1996 and 2019 Nigeria's scores hoovered between 26 - 27 while the ratings were 144 and 146 out of 180 countries of the world – a report which underscores the fact that the country never woke up from the stupor of corruption both in the military and civilian administrations!

DAMNING WORLD BANK REPORT ON HUMAN CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT, RECESSION, POVERTY AND INSECURITY IN NIGERIA!

In another damning report on the overview of Nigeria's economy the World Bank stated that  Nigeria made some significant progress in socio-economic index in recent years but its human capital development remained weak due to under investment and that it ranked 152 of 157 countries in the World Bank's 2018 Human Capital Index.

This assessment was no doubt predicated on the seemingly insecurity challenges of the nation which also mentioned that if International crude oil price slided below USD $50 dollars Nigeria would go into recession and that by the year 2030 at least 30 million Nigerians would have become the poorest of the poor globally!

THE REVISED NATIONAL SECURITY STRATEGY OF 4TH DECEMBER, 2019 UNDER THE WATCH OF PRESIDENT BUHARI.

Undaunted by those negative reports President Buhari who vowed to further enhance social security said that the new document was a product of painstaking and rigorous contributions by relevant stakeholders which was committed to achieving  a safer and more secure Nigeria from internal or external threats.

He believed that the new document would revitalise the previous document which was last reviewed in 2014 and confessed that the plethora of security challenges confronting the nation, especially the insurgency, could become the albatross to all his strategies and called for an assessment of the society and all elements of the national power to embrace and support the new initiative.

During that launch which is over two years, the President specifically addressed efforts at ending the insurgency in the North East and laying the foundation for sustainable peace and development in the region, the conflicts between the farmers and herders and also banditry!
He revealed that the document elicited contributions from security, Intelligence, law enforcement agencies, armed forces including ministries, departments and agencies MDAs and the civil society adding that overall security entailed unity of purpose because it was “a bottom to top operation” which must not suffer failure at any level.

RETIRED MAJOR GENERAL BABA GANA MONGUNO IS CURRENT NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER TO MR. PRESIDENT.

The NSA disclosed at the occasion of the presidential launch of the security document that a comprehensive approach to address poverty, healthcare delivery challenges and out-of-school children particularly the Almajiri system - were all embedded in the new strategy document. He stated that the document also captured current and future threats and has proffered appropriate strategy for government to address them holistically especially the security implications in respect of out-of-school children to safeguard the fast-growing population of the youths because the issues of poverty and illiteracy were synonymously linked.

The following are quotations from the NSA’s Statement at the launch:
“These innocent children must be afforded opportunities of free and compulsory early education - Islamic and western - simultaneously as provided for in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999, Chapter II Section 18, but ,(“not as and when practicable”) to stimulate their intellectual capabilities from tender ages. “They should also the given opportunities in vocation and technical studies exposed to land cultivation and basic entrepreneurship at secondary levels. (It is their inalienable rights).
“Government should remember that illiterate Street youths who were easily manipulated by some Quranic religious turncoats formed the nucleus of the Boko Haram terrorist group, which scars have formed indelible marks on the nation's socio-economic identity.
“Aggressive pursuit of internally generated revenues (IGRs), through the combined efforts of Federal and State Governments should occupy the front burner of the economic thrusts while wastages in government through illicit acquisition of wealth at the expense of free education must cease.
“Corruption with impunity should be discouraged as righteous leaders take the lead from henceforth! It is common global knowledge that eradicating poverty in all his forms had been the greatest challenge that faced Africa which accounts for 80% of the people living in extreme poverty and that in spite of efforts by the United Nations and International donor agencies to redress the ugly situation through the platforms of Millennium Development Goals (MDGs, 2000-2015) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs 2015-2030),  no nation could boast of having achieved 3% success in that direction - though the social goals were quite honorable and achievable! 
“Nigeria must not allow the World Bank or IMF predictions come true by quickly taking the above analysed intervention steps very seriously and religiously.” 

ANALYSIS OF BUHARI AND HIS NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER’S SPEECH AT THE SECURITY DOCUMENT LAUNCH.

It's tantamount to criminal negligence for an administration to make promises without fulfilling them as it is said that talk is very cheap and that's exactly what happened when the president launched a fresh national Security road map document on Wednesday 4th December 2019 to revitalize the previous document which was last reviewed in 2014.

Up to the time of this publication the Almajiri out-of-school children are still roaming the streets in their thousands of thousands and like every other social commitment which government reneged in the past two and a half years – the Covid-19 Pandemic and Boko Haram insurgency had been blamed for failure to deliver!

Insecurity in the North East has spread to the North West, North Central, in fact there’s insecurity everywhere in the country.
State Governments depend on the feeding bottle system of collecting monthly allocations from the Federation Account which holds remittances from the crude oil sales without bothering to aggressively pursue IGR's according to the document's recommendation.

The Sustainable Development Goals, (SDGs) 2015-2030 is not being implemented by the organizers in any direction and nothing has been done to debunk the World Bank prediction that by year 2030, 30 million Nigerians will become poorest of the poor globally!
Free and compulsory education whether Islamic or western is not being practiced anywhere in the country except by private educational bodies etc, etc.
HAS BUHARI’S APC GOVERNMENT FAIRED BETTER IN THE WAR AGAINST CORRUPTION INSECURITY OR IMPROVED ECONOMY IN THE PAST SEVEN YEARS OF HIS DESPERATION TO RULE NIGERIA? NO!

The president once said that he has done his best which means the presidential system of government in Nigeria has no more solutions to the myriad of demands and agitations by the citizens for a better administration.

Therefore he should quickly support the demand for REFERENDUM to quickly resolve all contentious issues in respect of the future of this great nation by constituting a Constituent Assembly which will draft a brand new Unicameral Parliamentary Constitution within the next three months to address the 2023 General Elections and produce a PRIME MINISTER!

The only miracle for peace and stability for Nigeria is this Parliamentary Constitution which will make provision for  INDEPENDENT CANDIDACY and douse all tensions being created by the two disreputable major parties the All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party.

The brand new constitution will destroy the inordinate ambitions of all renegade politicians who want to become Presidents, Governors and Senators from the next dispensation of Nigeria’s true democracy!

THE ZEAL OF THE LORD WILL PERFORM THIS MIRACLE SO THAT INNOCENT NIGERIANS WILL NOT CONTINUE TO DWELL AS SLAVES IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY AMEN!

ELITE ROUGES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR NIGERIA'S PERSISTENT ECONOMIC WOES!

ZION B-BC   NEWSLETTER.   

A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria {Vol. 11.NO 450. 27th March 2022.} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32).  PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

ELITE ROUGES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR NIGERIA'S PERSISTENT ECONOMIC WOES!

In the year 2004 a high-ranking senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria castigated some of his colleagues whom he claimed to be criminals and forgers who should not be sitting in the Red Chambers!

He recalled that during his stint as a police officer he had prosecuted some of the people them who later became senators. 
Retired Deputy Inspector General of Police, Nuhu Aliyu was forced to withdraw the statement following serious threats to his life and his family.
Elite rogues have been identified among the civil servants the executive branch, the legislative the judiciary and also in the private sectors of the Nigerian economy at the Federal, State and the Local Government Areas because they corruptly enrich themselves through the award of phantom contracts!

They also falsify accounts and steal monies from the treasury through annual padding of budgets to accommodate their illicit desires!

So far no Nigerian Head of State or President has been successfully accused, prosecuted and jailed for corruption during their tenures but many state governors, ministers legislators local government chairman have been cut red handed and have been successfully prosecuted and sent to jail!

NIGERIA’S MAJOR FOREX EARNER SINCE INDEPENDENCE HAS BEEN CRUDE OIL!

Nigeria can boast of thousands of thousands of billionaires who have benefited from illicit exports of unspecified barrels of crude oil, allocation of oil wells at the pleasure of the president and his cabals while the few indigene peasants who refine crude oil through locally built modular refineries in the South-South Creeks are hunted down and all their products destroyed and burnt!
And whereas, through crude oil earnings, successive Nigerian governments have refused to diversify to agriculture and solid minerals extraction full scale but have depended on sharing proceeds of oil among the 36 States and the Federal Capital Territory on monthly basis!

State Governors, members of their cabinets and economic teams went to sleep without bothering about Internally Generated Revenues (IGRs), the lack of which resulted in social infrastructural deficiencies and failure to deliver on their promises of dividends of democracy. 

And in spite of Nigeria's position as the most populous country in Black Africa and also the country with the largest Gross Domestic Product, (GDP), the nation had in 22 years of scandimania of proceeds from the only mono- product brought upon itself negative international indexing like: the poverty capital of the World, the most corrupt nation, the dirtiest and most dangerous and most insecure country to domicile!

THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT CANNOT CONFIRM DAILY BARRELS OF OIL LIFTED FOR EXPORTATION!

Through organized crime of oil theft from the military and through to the current democratic engagement, Nigeria has lost trillions of dollars to the cartel that has perfected the illegitimate business of great dimension with international collaborators!

Local thieves at the lower wrung of the downstream sector who do not possess the expertise, temerity and sophistication associated with their high-wired counterparts always resort to bursting PMS oil pipes and scooping as much refined products as possible to sell in the black market as their own share of the National Cake without any iota of care for their lives in case of fire outbreak!

OF WHAT USE IS TONY ELUMELU'S OIL THEFT LAMENTATIONS TO NIGERIAN TALAKAWAS?

What can be described as dividends of democracy in Nigeria is the by-product of the crude oil in the form of PMS which is known as petrol, kerosene and diesel oil
All of these refined products have become indispensable household essentials which the poor masses of Nigeria will covet anywhere it is found even under a fallen petrol tanker that cool catch fire at any given time please these downtrodden Nigerians risk their life to scoop free petrol to use for their trades for cooking and also to sell in the black market to make some money for themselves it is as bad as that in Nigeria.

Mr Tony elumelu is the PDP minority leader in the House of Representatives in a series of tweets recently lamented over the worsening electricity, hike in prices of diesel and petrol and its effects on businesses in the country.
Elumelu who is also an economist and Chief  Executive Officer of Heirs Holdings said that businesses were suffering under the situation and Nigerian citizens are groaning in view of the resultant inflation on food items as well.

The legislator also posed series of questions and comments as follows:

1) “How can a country so rich in natural resources have 90% of its citizens living in hardship and poverty?”
2)  “Nigeria cannot meet its OPEC production quota due to oil theft.”
3) “Businesses are suffering. How can we be losing over 95% of oil production to thieves? Look at Bonny Terminal that should be receiving over 200 thousand barrels of crude oil daily, instead it receives less than 3000 barrels leading the operator @Shell to declare force majeure.”
4) “Why are we paying taxes if our security agencies can't stop this? It is clear that the reason Nigeria is unable to meet its OPEC production quota is not because of low investment but because of theft, pure and simple!”
5) “Meanwhile oil-producing countries are smiling as their foreign reserves is rising. What is Nigeria’s problem? We need to hold our leaders more accountable!”

COMMENT: Is it truly possible to lose a whopping, 95% of Nigeria’s oil production to thieves? We expect the new NNPC to corroborate Elumelu’s claims and clear the air as the Federal Government's Agency in charge of the oil sector of the economy!

OIL WINDFALL ACCRUALS MUST NOT BE MANIPULATED!

Rumors are rife that the Buhari’s APC out-going Administration plans to muddle, mutilate and manipulate oil accounts/figures from February 2022 in spite of Our demand that a TASK FORCE be established to compute and monitor all monetary and financial transactions for as long as the conflict and oil prices escalate and subsist!

We still maintain Our Stand that the oil windfall MUST be directed to succor the plight of the 90% of very poor and downtrodden Nigerians in the areas of the Economy to reduce threats of recession through hyper inflation of goods and services! Education, Health, Employments, Motorable road networks, Industry, Manufacturing etc

OIL PRICE BENCHMARK AS APPROVED ON 22ND DECEMBER 2021 BY THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY WAS ANCHORED ON USD$62 PER BARREL!

Although President Buhari while proposing to spend NGN16.391trilion naira as budget estimate for 2022, the international oil price benchmark was pegged at $57 per barrel but the lawmakers increased it to the current $67 dollars. However due to the Russia-Ukraine War international oil prices skyrocketed to between $100 to $120 US dollars!
The legislators retained the oil production target of 1.88 million barrel per day including condensate production of between 300000 to 400,000 barrels per day for the purpose of its revenue calculation in 2022.

Oil exports account for around 80% of Nigeria's foreign exchange Revenue. Nigeria has however battled with a sharp drop in revenue and made a drop in production according to NNPC.

If what Tony elumelu has claimed above can be asserted to be correct then what will happen to the fortunes of Nigeria if the oil theft cannot be stopped for the country to benefit from the massive WINDFALL which other nations are currently enjoying?

Will it be that the Legislator was incorrect in his assertions and that as a Nigerian leader was trying to pass the BUCK to others instead of taking part of the blame for the current position of helplessness that the nation’s leadership team have wickedly placed Nigeria?

Whereas President Buhari's apologists who were silent on oil thefts had begun to calculate and to permutate daily accruals of the multi-dollar windfall and how it would be expended to PAY OFF FOREIGN DEBTS! Barawo!

THE PRESIDENTIAL SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT FOR THE ELITES WHICH GULPS DOLLARS AND NAIRA LIKE PREDATORS MUST END WITH PRESIDENT BUHARI!

The solution to the insecurity, inflation, banditry kidnappings and all forms of agitation for the restructuring of Nigeria will be solved with the introduction of a parliamentary system of government from 2023.

It was high time for the drafting of a brand new Unicameral parliamentary Constitution that will eliminate the Upper House (the Senate), which MUST BE SHUT without further delay to eliminate all forms of WASTAGES IN GOVERNMENT

 Nigerian politics had been heavily moniterized for too long. Following the 2023 INEC's Election TimeTable announcement the money bags have thrown their hats into the ring and have begone to fight dirty with all illicit and stolen monies.
All candidates want to become President of Nigeria others want to be Governors many want to be Senators, Legislators, Local Government Chairmen etc, all with one intention to steal from the treasury in a presidential system!
That will not happen again from henceforth! Nigerians should collectively demand for the convocation of a Constituent Assembly that will draft a new constitution for the General, States and Constituencies elections in 2023 that will usher a PRIME MINISTER INSTEAD OF A PRESIDENT!
Let us rise together as We the People of Nigeria, the patriotic citizens and get a government that will take care of our needs. We must not allow this opportunity to pass us by!
“A stitch in time saves nine!”

[WATCH OUT FOR A NIGERIAN PRIME MINISTER – NOT A PRESIDENT IN 2023!]
