TINUBU’S POLITICAL APPOINTMENTS ADDED INSULT TO INJURY!

In spite of accumulating national debt profile of over N134 trillion naira coupled with deliberate institutional affliction of hunger, pains, and sorrows upon the Nigerian population due to inappropriate socio-economic policies, President Tinubu has further compounded the burdensome financial situation with the engagement of not less than184 political appointees outside of the large retinue of cabinet ministers in two years!

Could this affront be regarded as direct assault on the sensibilities of the Citizens or a strategic ploy to financially empower foot soldiers in all Geo-political Zones to ensure continuity in 2027?

Insecurity of lives and property across Nigeria has become acceptable norm as nothing is being done by this All Progressives Congress (APC), to assuage the escalation!

Instead people’s representatives are being silenced with BLOOD MONEY to look the other way in spite of the massive sufferings, pains and agonies

Outside of those 184 appointees spread across the zones as follows:

A: North – 96 or 52.2%: North West (NW) – 44; North Central (NC) -29; North East (NE) -23; &

B: South – 88 or 47.8%: South West(SW) – 38; South South(SS) -26; South East(SE) -24, President Tinubu on Saturday 24th May 2025 approved 22 new appointments to key federal agencies, aiming to strengthen public institutions and deepen governance reforms nationwide, according to his spokesman Bayo Onanuga.

He has placed them as chief executives, chairmen of various federal agencies and commissions, marking another significant step in the administration’s commitment to revitalizing public institutions and deepening governance reforms, the report emphasized.

A detailed scrutiny of the list has exposed several of them as TRAITORS TO THE NIGERIAN DREAM OF PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY, who profess the ideology in the DAY TIME, but pay nocturnal visits to Aso Rock for political appointments!

Former Senate President, Senator Ken Nnamani; former Secretary to the Government of the Federation Anyim Pius Anyim; were among the delegation of PATRIOTS led by eminent Statesman, CHIEF EMEKA ANYANOKU, who visited Bola TINUBU at the Aso Villa on 2nd August 2024, to pressurize him to actualize their demands in NINE MONTHS which terminates on 29th May 2025!

Former Katsina State governor, Ibrahim Shehu Shema; former Edo State Deputy Governor Philip Shaibu; and former Vice President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Comrade Isa Aremu, also made the list.

Nnamani from Enugu State was named Chairman of the Nigerian Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS); former Governor Shema named Chairman of the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA), while former Senate President, Senator Anyim Pius Anyim from Ebonyi State was appointed Chairman of the National Merit Awards.

Former Deputy Governor of Edo State, Philip Shaibu was appointed Director-General of the Nigerian Institute of Sports, reinforcing the administration’s focus on youth development and sports promotion.

NEW APPOINTMENTS ARE DELIBERATELY TITLED TO THE NORTH TO ASSUAGE THREAT TO ABANDON TINUBU IN 2027!

A renowned labour activist and former Vice President of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) from Kwara State, Isa Aremu, was appointed Director-General of the Michael Imoudu National Institute for Labour Studies.

At the Nigerian Agricultural Insurance Corporation (NAIC), President Tinubu approved the appointment of Yazid Shehu Umar Danfulani from Zamfara State as Managing Director.

He Is to work alongside Abubakar Umar Jarengol from Adamawa State, who was named Executive Director (Operation/Technical), and Babaranti Ayandayo Rasheed from Osun State as Executive Director (Finance and Administration).

In the area of women and social development, Dr. Asabe Vilita Bashir from Borno State was appointed Director-General of the National Centre for Women Development, while Omobolanle Akinyemi-Obe from Ondo State was named Director-General of the National Senior Citizens Centre, Abuja.

The President also appointed Dr. Segun Aina from Osun State as Director-General of the Academic Staff College of Nigeria, a key institution for academic development and retraining in the tertiary education sector.

At the National Population Commission, Senator Jalo Zarami, from Yobe State and Dr. Joseph Haruna Kigbu from Nasarawa State were appointed Federal Commissioners, as part of efforts to strengthen national data systems and population planning.

From Kano State, Hamza Ibrahim Baba was appointed National Program Manager of the Government Enterprise and Entrepreneurship Program (GEEP), a federal initiative supporting small businesses and informal sector enterprises.

Abubakar Adamu from Benue State was named Executive Secretary of the Agricultural Research Council of Nigeria, while Mohammed Lawal Ibrahim of Kogi State and Abdullahi Mohammed of Katsina State were appointed Executive Directors (Finance/Admin) and (Monitoring and Implementation), respectively, at the Nigeria–Sao Tome Joint Development Authority.

Senator Tijjani Yahaya Kaura from Zamfara State was named Director-General of the Centre for Citizenship and Leadership Training, an agency tasked with promoting leadership values and civic education.

Senator Kabir Abdullahi Barkiya from Katsina was appointed Chairman of the Nigerian Agricultural Land Development Authority, while Dr. Shuaibu Shehu Aliyu from Kaduna State was appointed Executive Secretary of the National Commission for Mass Literacy, Adult and Non-formal Education.

Also on the list is Professor Almustapha Alhaji Aliyu from Sokoto State, who was appointed Managing Director of NNPC Gas Marketing Limited (NGML), a critical subsidiary of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC).

CORPORATE EMOLUMENTS.

Though the new appointees’ salaries and allowances including new vehicles plus accommodations will definitely SWELL THE DEBT PORTFOLIO WITH BILLIONS OF NAIRA IN FRESH BORROWINGS – Mr. President’s only concern is for the 2027 Elections to be won at all costs!

DEFECTORS ARE THE ENEMIES OF NIGERIAN CITIZENS!

The only very bold opposition Nigerian politician that has been consistent in SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER since the unacceptable results of the 2023 elections is former presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party, Prince Adewole Adebayo.

He has said that those defecting to All Progressives Congress have made it easy for Nigerians to identify those behind their hardship.

In a recent media chat in Abuja, Adebayo tasked President Bola Tinubu to use his political influence end economic hardship in the country.

He said: “You see, all this sagacity you are talking about is when you are looking for power. You are looking for power to serve the people.

“People are dying of hunger. There is insecurity. Every time you read the news, you feel sad because you want good news but you can’t get it.

“You want good news when you are reading the news. You don’t want people being killed; you don’t want that. So, if the president has sagacity, let him use the sagacity to run the lives of Nigerians.

“The suspects have moved. You see, they are making it easier for the Nigerian people to identify where their problems are.

“What I see is that the people who are mismanaging the affairs of this country are in different political parties. But for some reason, to make it easier for Nigerians to identify them, all of them are now lining up in the same party.

“So, all of them are going to APC so that it can be easy for Nigerian people to know that if you are part of a government that has been oppressing the people for the past 10 years, it is better for us to have all of them move towards APC instead of pretending to be in opposition.

“In fact, we are happier to have the people who have been poorly performing, mismanaging resources, who are not accountable for trillions of Naira and wasting the time of Nigerian people in one place. Let them move to the APC so that when we are campaigning, we don’t have to be confused. We just point at them where they are.”

Out of the mouth of two or three witnesses, a matter is established.(Deuteronomy 19:15; Matthew 18:16).

With more support from other patriotic NIGERIANS, the divine move to wrestle the nation from POLITICAL PREDATORS will come to fruition.

TOMPOLO IS A CONTRADICTION TO PATRIOTIC MILITANCY!

   ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.

 A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria. {Vol. 14. NO 604 18th May 2025} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32). PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

TOMPOLO IS A CONTRADICTION TO PATRIOTIC MILITANCY!

Niger Delta Nigeria has undoubtedly been the major foreign exchange earner which has successively sustained the nation‘s economy through crude oil exploration and exploitation from early independence to date.

But due to several years of glaring neglect of socio-economic dividends to the indigenous masses of the region, some angry youths formed militant groups to pressurize governments at Federal and State levels to fulfill all political manifestos.

Oweizide Thomas Ekpemupolo, also known as Tompolo, acclaimed to be religious leader of the Woyin Religion, an indigenous belief system of the Ijaw people and also a former leader of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND), influenced by the Egbesu Deity, which represents truth, fairness, and equity – an alternate name for Woyin became an arrow head and rallying figure.

 Tompolo and his followers participated in the Niger Delta arm struggle for the emancipation of the region until their demands were met and amnesty secured but of recent, TOMPOLO has metamorphosed into the prestigious rank of Nigerian numerous billionaires who flaunt dubious wealth in public to further compound the misery of poor masses!

In an unprecedented show of affluence on his 54th birthday celebration, 12th April 2025, TOMPOLO displayed his new personality as he danced under heavy showers of mint crisp Nigerian Naira Currencies until they formed a massive heap around him!

Tompolo, now a Federal Government Contractor on Security Matters has caught the ire of the EFCC through a viral video making rounds on social media and has been invited for questioning!

In January 2016, under the regime of former President Muhammadu Buhari’s government, an arrest warrant for Tompolo was issued on charges of theft and money laundering. Prior to that time, his last public appearance was in 2014 and for six years he succeeded to dodge all security radar and his location and whereabouts remained a mystery until 2020 when he resurfaced in his Egbesu shrine.

Surprisingly in August 2022, Muhammadu Buhari renewed a multi-billion naira lucrative contract of security surveillance of the Delta region pipelines to Tompolo, Chairman of Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited – a private security firm owned by the ex-militant.

ACTIVISM AND MILITANCY ACCORDING TO HIS RESUME.

In 1993, Tompolo dropped out of college and joined a resistance group in the Niger Delta. In 1998, Tompolo joined the newly formed Ijaw Youth Council and became a well respected member. Since there was very little progress in the Ijaw Youth Council Tompolo joined the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta.

 Tompolo’s invitation by Mujahid Dokubo-Asari, leader of the Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force (NDPVF) to take refuge in Delta state in 2005 helped precipitate the formation of MEND soon afterwards.

 Ekpemupolo quickly rose to a high commander in MEND and with his vast wealth he was able to supply MEND with large amounts of weapons and new equipment. Tompolo was in command of thousands of militants and successfully strategized to draw attention of the government and the multinational oil companies to the exploitation and degradation of the peoples and environments of the Niger Delta that needed urgent economic intervention!

For years Tompolo was a commander in various guerrilla groups in the Niger Delta which were all agitating against their perceived insensitivity of the federal government and the international oil companies towards to exploitation and degradation of the Niger Delta.

GRANT OF AMNESTY.

During his time as a guerrilla commander, he, under the auspices of MEND was able to drive the Nigerian government to grant amnesty to MEND members who decided to surrender. Tompolo was granted full amnesty as well as all of his men when he embraced the amnesty offer on the Federal Government of Nigeria under president Umaru Musa Yar’Adua on June 27, 2009.

 Tompolo embraced amnesty on October 4, 2009, in order to allow for peace in the area, and for the government and oil companies to carry out development projects, and provide jobs and training.

WHAT THE NIGERIAN LAW SAYS ON CURRENCY MUTILATION OR ABUSE?

A person who tampers with the Naira note or coin is guilty of an offence, punishable by law (CBN Act, Section 21). It is also against the law to reject the Naira (Section 20, subsection 5).

WHAT IS THE LAW FOR ABUSE OF CURRENCY IN NIGERIA?

Under Section 21 of the CBN Act, 2007, all acts that constitute Naira abuse are punishable by imprisonment for a term of not less than six months or a fine not less than ₦50,000 or both. These include: Spraying of, dancing or matching/stepping on the Naira: This is explicitly prohibited and constitutes an offense.

WHAT IS THE CBN ACT ON MONEY MUTILATION?

In Section 21(3), the CBN Act states: “for the avoidance of doubt, spraying of, dancing or marching on the Naira or any other notes issued by the Bank during social occasions or otherwise howsoever shall constitute an abuse and defacing of the Naira and shall be punishable under subsection (1) of this section.”21 Apr 2024.

SOUTH-SOUTH APC OBJECTS TOMPOLO’S INVITATION BY EFCC!

The South-south Zonal Organising Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who is also Tompolo’s lawyer,Dr. Blessing Agbomhere, has urged the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to remove the name of the founder of Tantita Security Services Limited, Chief Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo, from its X handle over alleged abuse of the naira.

In a letter to the EFCC Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, he described the invitation to Tompolo as unnecessary, as the individual in question has not committed any offence known to law.

The EFCC had in a letter dated 12th May 2025, invited Tompolo to appear on Monday, the 19th of May at the commission’s headquarters in Abuja to answer questions on his alleged involvement in naira abuse during his (Tompolo’s) 54th birthday anniversary celebration in April.

He Insisted that there was no evidence to show that Tompolo stepped on the Naira notes as alleged, but was rather seen in the video waving at the individual spraying him with the notes to stop!

TOMPOLO IS A DISGRACE TO KEN SARO-WIWA’S LEGACY OF DIGNITY OF MAN!

Ken Saro-Wiwa’s legacy is marked by his courage in challenging human rights abuses and environmental degradation caused by multinational corporations, particularly in the Niger Delta.

He was not involved in the rat race for the acquisition of wealth – a trade mark of militants of his era.

His activism and tragic death sparked international attention, leading to increased scrutiny of business and human rights, and inspired activists worldwide to fight for justice.

Saro-Wiwa’s execution, along with the Ogoni Nine, is seen as a pivotal moment that helped launch the international business and human rights (BHR) movement which mandate includes close monitoring to ensure foreign exploration conform with international best practices.

ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVISM.

His fight for the Ogoni people’s rights highlighted the environmental damage caused by oil extraction and the need for environmental justice and dedication to human rights and environmental protection continues to inspire activists globally, particularly in the face of corporate power.

Saro-Wiwa’s legacy emphasizes the importance of holding businesses accountable for their actions and upholding ethical principles.

MANDATORY CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY AND THE OGONI BILL OF RIGHTS.

He challenged the traditional view of corporations as solely profit-driven and highlighted their responsibility to consider the human and environmental impact of their operations which must be contractual in execution.

The Ogoni Bill of Rights drafted by Saro-Wiwa, remains a critical framework for restructuring the Nigerian state and ensuring more just and equitable governance, as well as protecting individual rights and freedoms.

Ken Saro-Wiwa passed on without accumulating ephemeral wealth but bequeathed an indelible footprint of a selfless and patriotic life for posterity.

TOMPOLO MUST BE MADE TO FACE THE FULL FORCE OF THE RULE OF LAW TO SERVE AS DETERRENT TO CARNAL CITIZENS LIKE HIM!

“For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul.”? (Mark 8:36).

CHINA WILL BE LARGEST ECONOMY WITH BRICS ALLIANCE!

   ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.

 

A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria. {Vol. 14. NO 603 11th May 2025} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32). PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

CHINA WILL BE LARGEST ECONOMY WITH BRICS ALLIANCE!

China is poised to become world’s number one economic bloc – a position which America had prestigiously occupied before the advent of Donald Trump’s maladministration!

To say that Donald Trump bulldozed his way into the Oval Office and became the 47th President of the United States of America and has been seated in the White House from 20th January 2025, even though he is a convicted criminal is an understatement!

With only four months in that official capacity he had exhibited an array of incompetent policy misdirection and somersaults that have exposed his lack of expertise in international economics.

He blindly issued 147 Presidential Orders on the spur of the moment according to his whims and caprices and cared less about catastrophic consequences.

He has become a thorn in the flesh of leaders, movers and shakers of global economy in all continents and countries of the World!

As a professional manipulator he had threatened before the 2024 Election that if he was not favored he would make America ungovernable!

If Donald Trump had been a CHINESE national, he would never have competed; he would have been summarily executed on conviction of 34 criminal charges!

There is no doubt that Donald Trump is out on a revenge mission not only against the Democrats but by extension, the entire governments of other countries of the world which were opposed to his second tenure!

He made good his campaign threat that on assumption he would deport all illegal and undocumented immigrants by fire and by force but in the process got muddled up due to his inadequacies in human capacity management.

He forgot that America had official and existing trade relationships with deportees countries but went ahead without thinking of the negative consequences he now has to deal with!

He believed that his fastest move to achieve his slogan “TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN”, was to astronomically increase Import Tariffs of all trade commodities from other nations and by so doing generate astronomical increase in his country’s Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), earnings in a very short period!

That uneconomic move has become his undoing and exposed him to the all world leaders as an IMPOSTER without modern economic knowledge and capacity to deal with the dynamics of professional economic engagements of the 21st Century bilateral international engagements.

The misled mammoth crowd that voted him for this second tenure are now licking their wounds and have staged massive protests across the 50 US States to vent their disgust about all of his socio-economic and unpopular foreign policies!

CHINA ON THE OFFENSIVE!

Ahead of an international Trade Summit at the instance of the United States, China has raised tariffs on US goods to 125% in response to the imposing tariffs of 145% on Chinese imports.

This escalation in tariffs is part of a broader trade war between the two countries, which has led to a significant decline in trade between the two nations.

China has also restricted exports of seven rare earths, including those essential for making AI chips, further exacerbating the trade tensions.

This follows an escalation where China initially retaliated with an 84% levy on US goods, which was then increased to 125%.

The US has imposed tariffs of up to 145% on some Chinese imports and China wasted no time to respond by raising tariffs on US goods to 125%, effectively increasing the cost of these goods for US consumers and businesses.

However concessions prevailed as both countries have granted exemptions on certain critical products to mitigate the impact of the tariffs.

The escalating trade war is causing economic uncertainty and potentially leading to a shift in China’s trade patterns, with some suggesting a move away from the US market.

Despite the tariff hikes, there are indications of ongoing dialogue and attempts to find a resolution, including potential tariff reductions.

 For example, Reuters reported that Trump suggested an 80% tariff rate on Chinese goods which CNBC also reported as a potential compromise.

BREAKING NEWS!

TRUMP TARIFFS LIVE UPDATES: US, CHINA AGREE TO SLASH TARIFFS IN 90-day TRADE TRUCE!

US and China have agreed to put most tariffs on pause for 90 days, marking a major de-escalation in a trade tit-for-tat that has roiled global markets.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who led weekend trade talks for the US delegation, said both sides have pledged to slash tariffs.

US tariffs on most Chinese imports will be cut to 30% from the current 145%, while China’s tariffs will drop to 10% from the current 125%, according to a joint statement.

The consensus from both delegations this weekend is neither side wants a “decoupling,” Bessent said on Monday.

“And what had occurred with these very high tariffs … was the equivalent of an embargo, and neither side wants that. We do want trade.”

The US said the tariff reductions would be in effect for 90 days while talks proceed. President Trump plans to speak with Chinese President Xi Jinping soon, “maybe at the end of the week," he said on Monday 12th May 2025.

DONALD TRUMP BACKS DOWN TO CHINA AND THE BRICS TRADE FORCE!

The BRICS – Brazil , Russia, India, China and South Africa, ably led by Russia which is America’s arch rival is warming up to teach Donald Trump a great lesson on how not to mess with well-established trade force!

But in the meantime, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), which consists of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Ukraine, is striving to expunge US currency from being used for transactions within their respective borders and between each other, according to an April 2025, accord!

The US Dollar is loosing its strength: it’s not a theory, nor is it a rumor; these eleven countries have officially announced that they will stop using the U.S. currency in their transactions starting in 2025, and this news comes just as the country is going through one of the most complicated economic moments in recent years.

The goal is clear: to strengthen their own economies, reduce the influence of the United States, and start operating with their own currencies.

“And although it’s not an immediate goodbye or the end of the world, it does mark the beginning of the end of the dollar’s hegemony as the global currency”, the report concluded.

WILL THIS FAILED AMERICAN PRESIDENT BURY HIS FAKED PRIDE, FALL IN LINE AND BEGIN TO LEARN FROM GLOBAL EXPERTS?

Having shot himself in the foot through fake and empty arrogance of a complete novice in international economics and the rug pulled off his feet by acclaimed trade experts of well-established nations across the globe;

WE want to believe that Donald Trump would quietly lick his wounds and fall in line to avoid total collapse of what is left of the US Economy!

“A Word is enough for the Wise!”

GALE OF DEFECTIONS SHOULD ACCELERATE CAMPAIGN FOR ONE-HOUSE PARLIAMENT!

   ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.   

 

 A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria.  {Vol. 14. NO 602 4th May 2025} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32).  PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

 

GALE OF DEFECTIONS SHOULD ACCELERATE CAMPAIGN FOR ONE-HOUSE PARLIAMENT!

A group of sadists who, unfortunately claim to be Representatives of the 220 million Nigerians in the  National Assembly (NASS), have switched camps in the last week of April 2025 through defection to the FAILED ruling  All Progressive Congress (APC), in a frenzied manner that portrays madness, mental dysfunction or both!

At the last count, not less than 50 heartless opposition legislators have decamped to turn Nigeria into a one-party State!

The ruling party now has overwhelming majority in both chambers of NASS to intensify the endemic state of corruption for which Nigeria holds the world record!

There are 18 political parties currently registered with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Nigeria. These include the major parties like the All Progressives Congress (APC), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and Labor Party (LP).

There are 15 other parties which include the Action Peoples Party (APP) and the African Democratic Congress (ADC), that are also registered but they have all ganged-up to turn Nigeria into a One Party State of Government for the sole aim of further robbing the Treasury Single Account (TSA), which keeps custody of only BORROWED FOREIGN LOANS!

A one-party state, single-party state, one-party system or single-party system is a governance structure in which only a single political party controls the ruling system. In a one-party state, all opposition parties are either outlawed or enjoy limited and controlled participation in elections.

EFFECTS OF THE GALE OF DEFECTIONS ON THE RED CHAMBER. 

Senate (Red Chamber), can now “boast” of an overwhelming majority of about 66 APC Legislators out of 109 members who will rubber stamp all requests from the Executive without soliciting for the opposition’s votes. 

The major opposition party, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has 33, Labor 5, Social Democratic Party 2, and All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has one Senator.

There are two vacant seats, one for Anambra South due to the death of Senator Ifeanyi Ubah last year and Edo Central as a result of Senator Monday Okpebholo election as Governor of Edo State.

It is also being rumored that  Governors Umo Eno (Akwa Ibom), Peter Mbah (Enugu), Aba Yusuf (Kano) and suspended Governor, Siminalayi Fubara (Rivers) might  also defect to the ruling APC in the next few weeks.

Some opposition politicians have alleged that mischief and blackmail had been employed by the ruling party to coerce opposition Governors and others to dump their political parties and join the APC in order that President Tinubu would have a better outing in 2027!

He only mustered 36.5 per cent in the 2023 General Elections to move to ASO ROCK. It was the least percentage compared to other past general elections results!

Grapevine also disclosed that President Bola Tinubu’s had covert meeting with the suspended Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara in London during his last overseas jamboree!

The said London meeting was held at the instance of the embattled governor, who was suspended from office after a declaration of a state of emergency in Rivers State.

Although the details of the meeting were still shrouded in secrecy, Fubara is believed to being cajoled with the option of defection to the ruling APC to retrieve his mandate as Rivers State Governor!

In the case of the Akwa Ibom State Governor,  Eno, his plan to defect to the APC according to the rumors had been linked to the plight of his predecessor and godfather regarding an alleged corruption case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

WHAT DOES THE NIGERIAN CONSTITUTION SAY ABOUT PARTY DEFECTION?

Sections 68(1) (g) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria clearly addressed party defection in the legislative context. It stipulates that members of a legislative house who change political parties will lose their seat. The Speaker of the House or the Senate President is responsible for implementing this provision. This means that legislators who switch parties are expected to vacate their positions.

 This section states that a member shall vacate his seat “being a person whose election to the house was sponsored by a political party, he becomes a member of another political party before the expiration of the period for which that House was elected; provided that his membership of the latter political party is not as a result of a division in the political party of which he was previously a member or of a merger of two or more political parties or factions by one of which he was previously sponsored ”.

However, this section only addresses members of the national assembly and is silent on all other elective positions.

The 2010 Electoral Act also attempts to forestall political defections with some of its provisions but it has not been very successful in reducing the indiscriminate abandonment of one party for another by politicians. Attempts to introduce bills on the floor of the National Assembly to curtail defections have also been unsuccessful.

THERE CAN BE NO BETTER TIME THAN NOW FOR ALL UNICAMERAL PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUTION CAMPAIGNERS TO JOIN RANKS TO PUSH THE BILL IN NASS THROUGH!

A Bill seeking to return Nigeria to the parliamentary system of government passed second reading at the House of Representatives on Thursday, 20th March 2025.

The bill seeks to establish the office of the Prime Minister as Head of Government and the President as Head of State.

The proposed legislation was among the 32 Constitutional Amendment Bills passed by the lawmakers during a plenary session presided over by Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu.

The proposed legislation, sponsored by Minority Leader Kingsley Chinda and 59 others, seeks to alter the 1999 Constitution to introduce a parliamentary framework that will shift executive authority from the President to a Prime Minister elected by the legislature.

The bill is titled: *”A Bill for an Act to Alter the Provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 to Provide for the Office of the Prime Minister as Head of Government and the Office of President as Head of State and to Provide for a Framework for the Mode of Election to the Said Offices and for Related Matters.”*

Parliamentary democracy was practiced in the First Republic, with Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa serving as Prime Minister and Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe as the ceremonial President.

The system, which lasted from 1960 until the 1966 military coup, allowed executive authority to reside in the Prime Minister, who was chosen from the majority party in parliament, while the President served as the Head of State.

The system is cost-effective and is very unfriendly with corruption!

In February 2024, some 60 members of the House of Representatives sought amendments to the 1999 Constitution to transition from the current presidential system to the parliamentary system of government.

Led by a lawmaker representing Lagos State under the All Progressives Congress, Wale Raji, the lawmakers identified the need to reduce the cost of government and foster robust policy debates among other reasons, for demanding a return to the parliamentary system.

The lawmakers, drawn from different party affiliations, anchored their positions on the need to adopt a parliamentary system at the Federal, State, and Local Government levels.

President Tinubu will be adding insult to injury by hoping to remain in office beyond 2027, having performed woefully in less than TWO YEARS!

The PATRIOTS led by Elder Statesman, Emeka Anyanoku should close ranks with Professor Pat Utomi, Barrister Deji Adeyanju, Dele Momodu,  Pastor Tunde Bakare, the  Nigerian Labor Congress, Verydarkman, Vincent Otse and a host of other ONE HOUSE PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM CAMPAIGNERS, shut down Nigeria in December 2025 and make the dream come true.

 The set time for Nigeria’s freedom from the bondage from oligarchy is now!

“A stitch in time saves nine.”

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. Please forgive me and write my name in the Book of Life. Amen. If you prayed this prayer, you have been admitted into the family of sons and daughters of God, who are born-again. Congratulations!
