NIGERIAN STREET CHILDREN WILL EXPLODE MORE “BOMBS” SOONEST!

Nigeria's Minister of Education was sacked along with other indolent appointees in a lackluster rudderless cabinet of Bola Tinubu - SO WHAT!

What has the sack got to do with the shameful fact that not less than 20 MILLION NIGERIAN CHILDREN ARE ON THE STREETS and Mr. President does not comprehend the calamitous implications to NATIONAL SECURITY because Education is treated with LEVITY in Nigeria! (Please find towards the end, a short expose' on "Allegations of Derelictions against ex-Minister of Education"). Literature on philosophy of education is replete with a variety of definitions of the word “education.” Some scholars define education as: “the transmission of life by the living to the living,” while others define it as “the acquisition of the art of the utilisation of knowledge” (Whitehead, 1962).

Author Hubert Spencer says "Education is complete living"; William B Yeats "Education is not filling a bucket but lightening a fire.;" Horace Mann "Education must bring the practice as nearly as possible to theory;" According to J F Herbert "Education is the development of good moral character."

According to the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), one in three Nigerian children is out of school. This totals about 10.2 million children at the primary level and about 8.1 million at the junior secondary school level. 23 Jan 2024.

Nigeria can aptly be described as a country where ILLITERATE POLITICAL JOBBERS thrive successfully because qualitative educational qualification is the least of their problems!

The defective/offensive Military 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic Section 130 (1) (2), 131 (d) stipulate educational requirement for the position of President as "at least School Certificate level or its equivalent" - same applies to all political appointments from Ward level!

Therefore very few past Nigerian leaders - especially at the level of Presidency ever bothered about Sections 18 (1-3 (a-d); which make education from primary to tertiary free and compulsory for citizens:

18 (1) Government shall direct its policy towards ensuring that there are equal and adequate educational opportunities at all levels.

(2) Government shall promote science and technology

3) Government shall strive to eradicate illiteracy; and to this end Government shall as and when practicable provide

(a) Free, compulsory and universal primary education;

(b) Free secondary education;

(c) Free university education; and

(d) Free adult literacy programme.

GENESIS OF OUT-OF-SCHOOL CHILDREN - MOSTLY FROM THE NORTHERN STATES!

While most Southern States especially the West and Mid-West from early Independence in the '60s introduced FREE PRIMARY EDUCATION, the Northern States failed to nurture their youths in any formal education except the Islamic up to the final hand-over of reins of government to the Civil Population by the Nigerian Army in 1999!

SENATOR ALI MODU SHERIFF (SAS) BORNU STATE GOVERNOR (2003-2011).

It is on record that a two -term State Governor, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff contributed largely to the ILLITERACY FAILURE of Borno State Children during his tenure!

He failed to send them to schools to acquire Western Education and by implication turned them into STREET URCHINS who begged for alms for sustenance!

Those children became puns in the hands of Jihadists and eventually metamorphosed into the dreaded BOKO HARAM TERRORISTS WHO HAVE BEEN DETONATING BOMBS ACROSS NIGERIA IN THE PAST 15 YEARS! He allegedly master-minded their activities to boost his political status while in office. Although he denied the accusations severally, there is no way he could absolve himself of the guilt of DENYING those ebullient youths good education which they were entitled to according to the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria!

Compulsory child education is a worldwide phenomenon and Nigeria is not an exception!

UNESCO BENCHMARK FOR GLOBAL EDUCATION.

Despite the apparent commitment, it is crucial to note that the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) recommends that nations allocate at least 26% of their annual budgets to education but Nigeria's Education Budget Allocation always fell below par!

Tinubu’s Government claims to have allocated about 7.9% of the 2024 budget, a bit higher than in previous years. The provision for Universal Basic Education is 11.5% of the total allocation, while 32.1% goes to TETFUND and 56.24% goes to other ministries, departments, and agencies. Over the years, Nigeria paid lip service to National Education in spite of its importance as the bedrock of economic and security engagements/operations and now swallows the bitter pills of daily insecurity of lives and property! However, the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) President disclosed recently that only 6% of Nigeria’s 2024 Budget was allocated to EDUCATION!

ALLEGATIONS OF DERELICTION OF DUTY AGAINST EX-MINISTER OF EDUCATION!

A Non-Governmental Agency (NGO), Education for Accelerated Development (EDAD) stated recently that Prof. Tahir Mamman's SACK was long overdue.

According to the Group, “Mamman was on a mission to reverse the 'gains' made in the education sector in recent times"!

Some critical reasons for the minister's dismissal, WHICH DID NOT INCLUDE REHABILITATION OF 20 MILLION NIGERIAN STREET CHILDREN according to the NGO are as follows:

* "providing misinformation leading to diplomatic conflict," which strained relations between Nigeria, Benin Republic, and Togo.

* "claims about the accreditation of universities in Benin were deemed inaccurate, because only three institutions were accredited when over 50 actually hold this status."

* “mishandling foreign students’ participation in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme, causing thousands to be denied entry into the programme."

 * “conflicts among major educational bodies, including the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) and the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB)"

* “inefficiencies in the accreditation processes, a controversial 18-year minimum age policy for university admissions that resulted in lawsuits, and a lack of cooperation with fellow officials, which contributed to operational inefficiencies within the Ministry."

NOTHING TO WRITE HOME ABOUT TINUBU'S ADMINISTRATION!

Who is sacking Who? From the onset of this administration the entire population of Nigeria condemned negative policies of an un-prepared President Tinubu who WAS sacked in THE COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION BY THE CITIZENS FOR POLICY GAFFES ON THE DAY OF HIS INVESTITUTURE - 29TH MAY 2023!

He does not possess the “locus standi” to sack unproductive team mates who could not deliver DIVIDENDS OF DEMOCRACY IN 14 MONTHS OF AN ADMINISTRATION THAT HAS GULPED BILLIONS OF $US DOLLARS IN TAXPAYERS MONEY ON CONCURRENT INSTEAD CAPITAL EXPENDITURES?

Is this not a case of the POT CALLING THE KETTLE BLACK?

There's only one OPTION open to Mr.Tinubu: HE MUST LISTEN TO THE PATRIOTS DEMANDS FOR SOLUTION TO NIGERIA'S SEEMINGLY INTRACTABLE PROBLEMS – WHICH IS, THE INSTITUTION OF A ONE HOUSE (UNICAMERAL) PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM THROUGH REFERENDUM!

These eminent group of elders in the Society have lent their voices to the very SALIENT DEMAND and WE EXPECT THAT TINUBU WILL BE WISE ENOUGH TO ACTUALIZE IT BEFORE THE MONTH OF MAY 2025 which will be exactly NINE MONTHS from the visit to Aso Villa by the Patriots!

HE HAS NO OTHER OPTION! MAY THE GOOD LORD SAVE HIM THAT HE DOES THE NEEDFUL!

BREAKING NEWS: Tinubu’s daughter, Iyaloja General of Nigeria, has been appointed “Ambassador for Almajiris and Out-of-School Children”!

NIGERIA ON THE VERGE OF ECONOMIC SUICIDE THROUGH ONE MAN'S DISOBEDIENCE!

   ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.

 

A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria. {Vol. 13. NO 574. 20th October 2024} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32). PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

NIGERIA ON THE VERGE OF ECONOMIC SUICIDE THROUGH ONE MAN'S DISOBEDIENCE!

"For as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one shall the many be made righteous. Clearly, through one person's disobedience humanity became sinful, and through one person's obedience humanity will receive God's approval."(Romans, 5:19). PETROLEUM SUBSIDY was not a CURSE to Nigeria’s economy but a BLESSING to the critical mass of its citizens who lived in abject POVERTY!

Subsidies had been in place since the 1970s, when the government sold petrol to Nigerians at a price below cost – though most consumers weren't aware of this. The 1977 Price Control Act made it illegal for some products (including petrol) to be sold above the regulated price. Consecutive military juntas which were in power for almost 30 years did not remove subsidy because petroleum products especially PMS, were the only dividends enjoyed by the masses whose liberty and freedom had been abrogated with the suspension of the Nigerian Constitution!

AND from 1999 until 28th May 2023, Petroleum Subsidy regime subsisted in spite of obnoxious/incessant pump price increases.

BY ONE MAN'S DISOBEDIENCE HELL WAS LET LOOSE ON; NIGERIA’S ECONOMY!

ON THE MORNING OF 29th May 2023, the "INVESTITURE DAY OF ONE MAN - PRESIDENT BOLA TINUBU" NIGERIA'S ECONOMIC LANDSCAPE TURNED FROM SUBLIME TRANQUILITY TO CHAOS AND TREPIDATION ACROSS THE LENGTH & BREATH OF THE NATION THROUGH THE ARBITRARY REMOVAL OF PETROL SUBSIDY!

While Tinubu continued His ECONOMIC DESTABILIZATION SPEECH at the Eagle Square Venue of the swearing-in-ceremony, Petroleum Marketers immediately adjusted pump price which plummeted from N195 naira per litre to N617 and presently in October 2024 sells at between N1, 080 - N1, 200 naira across the entire federation!

BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THROUGH THE UNICAMERAL (ONE HOUSE) PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT THAT WOULD DEBUT VERY SOON THROUGH DIVINE INTERVENTION, A CHOSEN MAN'S OBEDIENCE WILL RESTORE SANITY INTO THE ECONOMIC ARCHITECTURE!

THE DISCOVERY OF CRUDE IN NIGERIA!

Oil was reportedly first discovered in Bayelsa State, in the Niger Delta, in 1956. According to the Organization of the Petroleum Export Countries (OPEC), Nigeria currently has the world's tenth largest crude oil reserves and is the world's thirteenth-largest producer of crude oil.

A MISNOMER IN GOVERNMENT!

Bola Tinubu like US Donald Trump is a multi- billionaire adventurist businessman who believed he could gamble to add political power at the highest level of government to his laurels and actually "succeeded" through a corrupt/manipulated system!

He has no business in government and that is why he failed woefully from the onset by putting the WRONG FOOT FORWARD THROUGH AN UNCEREBRAL SPONTANEOUS POLICY DECISION OF REMOVAL OF PETROL SUBSIDY WITH NEITHER CABINET MINISTERS NOR AN ECONOMIC ADVISORY TEAM WHICH WOULD HAVE PREVENTED THE DISASTROUS AND CATASTROPHIC EFFECTS CURRENTLY RAVAGING THE VERY POOR MASSES!

And Whereas Mr.Tinubu had been Leader of the APC Ruling Party's from 2015 and was aware of the fact that his predecessor in office rtd Major General Muhammadu Buhari was the Military leader who supervised over a very corrupt system which earned Nigeria the worst of negative international indexes because monies were borrowed to satiate the reckless and luxurious lifestyles of the politicians while the very poor masses wallow in squalor!

129 MILLION NIGERIAN CITIZENS ARE TRAPPED IN POVERTY SAYS WORLD BANK!

The World Bank, a major lender to Nigeria has confirmed in a recent 2024 Report that 129 million Nigerians are trapped in poverty to confirm a previous report in November 2022 by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), that 133 million Nigerians faced MULTI-DIMENSIONAL POVERTY in spite of the avalanche of borrowed monies in circulation and that the nation's official currency (NAIRA), was among the worst performing in the world!

*Debt owed to World Bank in 2024 is USD$16.5bn dollars!

According to the World Bank's latest financial statements, Nigeria's exposure to the IDA surged by 14.4 per cent, rising from $14.3bn in fiscal year 2023 to $16.5bn in fiscal year 2024, thus becoming World Bank's IDA third-largest debtor!

World Bank’s International Development Association (IDA) works with a large network of global, regional and local partners to reach poorest people and deliver sustainable result.

NIGERIA'S NAIRA IS AMONG THE MOST WORTHLESS IN THE WORLD! Says World Bank.

An October heart-rending media report by Africa's Pulse states that the NAIRA was prominent on the list of worst-performing currencies in Sub-Saharan Africa in 2024, according to the World's Apex Bank,!

The official currency which exchanges between N1,637.96 - N1, 684.640 to 1 US Dollar, further depreciated late August 2024, by approximately 43 per cent year-to-date, making it one of the region’s weakest currencies alongside the Ethiopian birr and South Sudanese pound.

 According to analysts, several factors, including surging demand for US dollars in the parallel market, limited dollar inflows, and delays in foreign exchange disbursements by Nigeria’s Central Bank.

The World Bank’s report further highlighted that demand for dollars, driven by financial institutions, non-financial end-users, and money managers, has exacerbated the pressure on the naira.

“By August 2024, the Ethiopian birr, Nigerian naira, and South Sudanese pound were among the worst performers in the region. The Nigerian naira continued losing value, with a year-to-date depreciation of about 43 per cent as of end-August.

“Surges in demand for US dollars in the parallel market, driven by financial institutions, money managers, and non-financial end-users, combined with limited dollar inflows and slow foreign exchange disbursements to currency exchange bureaus by the central bank explain the weakening of the naira", the report further expatiated.

NIGERIA IS ALSO INDEBTED TO THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND! (IMF).

In 1986 under General Ibrahim Babangida's rule, Nigeria initiated its first IMF loan request under the conditions of a Structural Adjustment Program (SAP). SAP refers to the conditionality attached to an IMF loan given to a country, implemented to ensure that the country will establish institutional changes and economic reforms that will facilitate timely repayment.

In July 1986, the structural adjustment program was established under several conditions:

* First, reduce Nigeria's dependence on the oil sector;

* Second, maintain a medium term balance of payment;

* Third, construct a minimal non-inflationary economic growth structure;

* And lastly, aim to reduce unproductive investments.

These stipulations were attempts to promote domestic production, decrease dependency on the oil market, and lessen import needs.

Since 1987, Nigeria has participated in IMF loan arrangements on February 3, 1989, January 9, 1991, August 4, 2000, and most recently, in 2020 a $3.4 billion IMF loan, reaching 100 percent of its national quota. Ultimately, in 1986, Nigeria decided against supporting the $2.4 billion loan from the IMF due to political tensions and the domestic resistance against the IMF's conditions to eliminate the petroleum subsidy and to devalue the naira.

Nigeria has received a loan of $3.4billion from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The loan was given to support the country's efforts to address the adverse economic impact of the coronavirus and the fall in the price of oil, Nigeria's major export commodity.

WORLD BANK ALSO SAYS IT WOULD TAKE NIGERIA NOT LESS THAN 15 YEARS TO GET OUT OF THE WOODS!

PRESIDENT TINUBU MUST REVERSE ALL UNWORKABLE ECONOMIC POLICIES, YIELD TO THE PATRIOTS/CITIZENS DEMANDS FOR A PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM THROUGH REFERENDUM WITHOUT FURTHER DELAY!

"A Word Is Sufficient For The Wise"!

A DISORGANIZED AND CORRUPT NIGERIAN JUDICIARY WILL SET NIGERIA ON FIRE!

ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.

 

A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria. {Vol. 13. NO 573. 13th October 2024} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32). PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

A DISORGANIZED AND CORRUPT NIGERIAN JUDICIARY WILL SET NIGERIA ON FIRE!

The new Chief Justice of Nigeria, Hon Mr. Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun (MFR), should be held responsible for the ongoing imbroglio in Rivers State following conflicting State and Federal Courts Judgments in respect of procedure for Local Government Elections!

Massive destruction of lives and properties, conflagration of strategic State structures and bloodshed erupted as the Nigeria Police Force withdrew its security apparatuses of men and armory from the public space in "obedience to the Federal Court order from Abuja" which banned the elections on 5th October 2024! And whereas, there was an earlier State High Court order which granted a go-ahead for the elections to hold on the appointed date 5th October 2024 by the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission (RSIEC)!

The Chief Justice should have put her house in order! The erring High Court Judge in Abuja who was not superior to his counterpart in Rivers State should have been queried to avoid the current disaster being witnessed! Courts of co-ordinate jurisdiction are never in conflict in order climes except in Nigeria where there is no longer a demarcation between politicking and professionalism!

THE SUPREME COURT JUDGEMENT ON LOCAL GOVERNMENT ELECTIONS?

On July 11, 2024, the Supreme Court delivered a landmark judgment affirming the financial autonomy of Nigeria's 774 Local Government Councils. The verdict will enable Local Governments to make decisions and take actions without needing approval from State Governments adding that local governments can now manage their finances, collect revenues, and allocate resources without state government interference.

PART TWO OF THE JUDICIARY DERELICTION OF DUTY IN RIVERS STATE!

The Nigerian Judiciary pretends not to be aware of the feud between the current minister of the Federal Capital Territory Mr. Nyesom Wike erstwhile Rivers State Governor and the incumbent Governor Siminalayi Fubara due to the insistence of the former to still hold on to power by PROXY!

AND WHEREAS THE FOLLOWING FACTS ARE IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN!

1. Following the ensuing power tussle between the duo, 27 pro-Wike Legislators out of the 32-State House of Assembly members defected from the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), to the Federal Government's All Progressives Congress which appointed Wike as minister!

2. The development debuted in court litigation and their SEATS were declared VACANT! The High Court also ordered that fresh elections be conducted for new candidates to fill the vacant posts!

3. In the process of time, Governor Fubara forged ahead with FIVE Legislators in continuation of State duties and eventually in December 2023, presented a Budget of N800 billion naira which was approved by the Legislators who did not constitute the mandatory ONE THIRD Constitutional Provisions.

4. Appeal Court voids Rivers’ 2024 budget, affirms Wike-backed lawmakers, speaker A three-judge panel of the Court of Appeal ruled in favour of FCT minister Nyesom Wike-backed state lawmakers on Thursday. October 10, 2024

Media Report - Premium Times:

The Court of Appeal in Abuja on Thursday affirmed a lower court’s decision nullifying the Rivers State’s 2024 budget signed into law and being operated by Governor Siminalayi Fubara.

The N800 billion budget passed in December 2023 by a faction of the fractured state’s House of Assembly consisting of four lawmakers led by Edison Ehie. The faction is loyal to Governor Fubara.

A three-judge panel of the Court of Appeal led by Joseph Oyewole unanimously affirmed the House’s faction led by Speaker Martin Amaewhule as the legitimate legislative authority, which had earlier invalidated the state’s 2024 budget.. .

Mr Oyewole made the pronouncements after dismissing the appeal filed by Governor Fubara against the 22 January decision of the Federal High Court in Abuja.

5. Although Governor Fubara is now in a dilemma but from all available reports he would not yield any grounds! According to him the 27 Legislators do not exist in the eyes of the LAW and therefore had no power to abrogate the State Budget!

6. Fubara is believed to be heading for the Supreme Court which may not reverse decision of the Appeal Court and is likely to expose himself to imminent impeachment action except a miracle occurs!

Until the obnoxious, defective and offensive 1999 Military Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is abrogated, more States could still experience arson, conflagration or incidenciary of an unprecedented nature! The ONE HOUSE Parliamentary System of Government in Nigeria is closer than the PESSIMISTS think!

The Three Tiers of the Nigerian Government i.e., the Executive, Legislature and the Judiciary are still being manipulated through the 24-year-old maligned Constitution! Administrative impunity coupled with political rascality had been the order of the day from 29th May 1999 and with increasing rapidity has consumed the 36 States of Federation!

Flagrant disobedience to orders/ judgments from the lower to the apex courts by government institutions and influential citizens are unabated!

RIVERS STATE IS IN CURRENTLY IN THE EYE OF THE STORM!

Following two conflicting High Court orders in the month of September 2024 in respect of the convening of local government elections, contending "power brokers" in Rivers State decided to take laws into their hands and subsequently inflicted more suffering on the unfortunate innocent citizens who became victims of political thugs who also vandalized Strategic structures in three local governments areas of the State because the October 5th 2024 date of the State High Court was observed!

SOLUTION TO THE DEBACLE!

Some un-informed Nigerians have suggested that President Bola Tinubu to whom Wike holds allegiance should arbitrate! No no no! He is already compromised! Others believe that Rivers Elders and past Governors could influence the lock jam! Impossible, they are divided along Party lines with total allegiance to their principals!

THE SOLUTION IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE!

Nigeria and its SOVEREIGN CITIZENS are bigger and more precious than Tinubu and those very ungrateful Rivers opportunists who have nothing to lose!

OUR VERDICT!

Whether Tinubu would re-shuffle a non-performing cabinet or not, WIKE should be kicked out of office and probed immediately while his godson, Fubara should be impeached and probed without delay! Mr. Chief Justice should immediately set up an inquiry through the Nigeria Judicial Council (NJC), of which he is Chairman, to ascertain, detect and punish erring judges who precipitated the OCTOBER 7 2024 MAYHEM IN RIVERS STATE in order to ascertain her probity in a Judiciary that has been smeared with voluminous accusations of CORRUPTION!

"One rotten apple spoils the whole bunch!"

WHY ARE NIGERIAN PRESIDENTS SO OBSESSED WITH TRANSIENT POWER?

ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.

 A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria. {Vol. 13. NO 572. 6th October 2024} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32). PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

WHY ARE NIGERIAN PRESIDENTS SO OBSESSED WITH TRANSIENT POWER?

In his eight-year tenure as civilian president of Nigeria retired general, OLUSEGUN AREMU OBASANJO kept the office of the Presidency to his chest without relinquishing it for one second to his Vice, Atiku Abubakar even when he had to travel abroad on several occasions!

And in spite of the fact that he had ruled as military head of state following the assassination of General Murtala Mohammed on 13th February 1976, for THREE YEARS, he still desired a Third Term in office after 2007 in other to accumulate more wealth!

Late UMARU 'YAR ARDUA - who succeeded Obasanjo, 2007 in spite of his very weak health condition held tightly to the office without ever handing over to his Vice, Goodluck Jonathan until he suddenly passed in a foreign country, in 2010!

And having completed the joint ticket from 2010-2011, Jonathan refused to step down but stubbornly contested that year's election, won and ruled until 2015, without handing over to his Vice, Namadi Sambo during all overseas journeys! In that same year, Jonathan believed he was still entitled to "a second term" and therefore slugged it out with retired General Muhammadu Buhari who overthrew him to rule for eight years!

 Mr Buhari was forced to hand over to his Vice Professor 'Yemi Osibajo only once when his health condition was very critical but REVERSED almost all executive decisions taken by Osibajo during his inevitable absence!

PRESIDENT BOLA TINUBU HAS FOLLOWED SUIT BY FORGETTING THAT NIGERIA'S PRESIDENCY IS NOT FAMILY INHERITANCE!!!

President Tinubu travelled out of Nigeria to oversea countries in not less than 21 times since assumption office on 29th May 2023, but did not hand over to his Vice Kashim Shettima for once!

Following his abysmal 64th Independence broadcast which was massively criticized for not addressing salient burning issues of unabated insecurity, abject poverty and hunger in Nigeria sequel to his inauguration blabbing of removal of fuel subsidy, merging of the forex regime and floating of the official currency (Naira);

AND IN SPITE OF FALUIRE TO ACT ON ALL CITIZENS DEMANDS - in respect of #END BAD GOVERNANCE PROTESTS (AUGUST 1-10, 2024), & FEARLESS IN OCTOBER (OCTOBER 1, 2024)........Tinubu flew out of Nigeria on Wednesday 2nd October 2024, on a two-week annual holiday and DAMNED ANY CONSEQUENCES FROM THE CITIZENS AND LABOR UNIONS THAT ARE GEARING UP FOR A NATION-WIDE PROTEST!

This is the same Tinubu whose election into office was very questionable with his mere 37 percent margin! The man whose fore/local educational certification was marred by alleged forgeries contrary to Sections 137.

(1) A person shall not be qualified for election to the office of President if - AND;

(j) he has presented a forged certificate to the Independent National Electoral Commission; of the 1999 Military Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria!

DECLARATION OF ASSETS LIABILITIES, OATH OF ALLEGIANCE/OFFICE SHROUDED IN ABSOLUTE SECRECY CONTRARY TO Section 140. (1) A person elected to the office of President shall not begin to perform the functions of that office until he has declared his assets and liabilities as prescribed in this Constitution and he has taken and subscribed the Oath of Allegiance and the oath of office prescribed in the Seventh Schedule to this Constitution.

(2) The oaths aforesaid shall be administered by the Chief Justice of Nigeria or the person for the time being appointed to exercise the functions of that office.

IRREVERSIBLE UNCERTAINTIES OF LIFE!!

There are two irreversible certainties that confront humanity - first, certainty of DEATH and second, the inability to transport earthly WEALTH to Heaven!

The Biblical Truth states that we brought nothing to the world and surely will take nothing out! The race for both legitimate and dubious acquisition of wealth is most rampant amongst Nigerian political leaders. Why would Constitutional Provisions be deliberately and brazenly impinged in the process of relinquishing political position either temporarily or permanently by Nigerian President.

Tinubu hardly read his Independence speech before that he boarded the "new” N160 billion naira presidential jet & headed for UK for a 2-week " holiday (or medical treatment?), according to official sources!

The other time when he was away for 18 days in September from China to UAE and secretly to a London Hospital... but was caught on camera...... And now he is back to complete what he started!

NO NIGERIAN PRESIDENT - PAST OR PRESENT - EVER PREPARED TO SERVE THE PEOPLE FAITHFULLY!

We make bold to say that there are no poor presidents or politicians in Nigeria! All of them are multi-billionaires because they are operating a capitalist system of government in a developing nation saddled with so much underdevelopment due to the reckless lifestyles of those in power - who failed to provide any form of dividends!

Was it not time for them to borrow a leaf from a URUGUAY'S President described as the POOREST IN THE WORLD because of true love and commitment to the plight of his Citizens! Below are few excerpts from his biography according to Wikipedia:

José Alberto "Pepe" Mujica Cordano (Spanish: [xoˈse muˈxika]; born 20 May 1935) is a Uruguayan politician, former revolutionary and farmer who served as the 40th president of Uruguay from 2010 to 2015. A former guerrilla with the Tupamaros, he was tortured and imprisoned for 14 years during the military dictatorship in the 1970s and 1980s.

A member of the Broad Front coalition of left-wing parties, Mujica was Minister of Livestock, Agriculture, and Fisheries from 2005 to 2008 and a Senator afterwards. As the candidate of the Broad Front, he won the 2009 presidential election and took office as president on 1 March 2010. He was the Second Gentleman of Uruguay from 13 September 2017 to 1 March 2020, when his wife Lucia Topolansky was vice president under his immediate predecessor and successor, Tabaré Vázquez.

NIGERIA CAN PRODUCE GOOD GOVERNANCE THROUGH A UNICAMERAL (ONE HOUSE), PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM THAT WOULD JETTISON THESE ROBBERS IN GOVERNMENT!

There can be no better time than NOW for Nigerians (especially the YOUTHS) to rally round the PATRIOTS headed by Eminent International Statesman/Administrator who have demanded FACE-TO-FACE from President Tinubu - A NEW PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUTION TO BE EMPOWERED WITH A REFERENDUM WITHIN SIX TO NINE MONTHS - DEADLINE 12TH AUGUST 2024-12TH MAY 2025!

The shackles of bad governance and impunity must end now to exit corrupt politicians once and for all!

HAS THE WORLD UNITED SINCE WW II?

ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.

 A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria. {Vol. 13. NO 571. 29th September 2024} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32). PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

HAS THE WORLD UNITED SINCE WW II?

[SPECIAL EDITION ON UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY (UNGA) 79 - 10TH - 30TH SEPTEMBER, 2024.]

None of the world leaders past and present could claim credit to any inventions in science and technology but all share a common urge to destroy and destabilize the MYSTERIOUS ORDER OF CREATION AND NATURE THROUGH WARS and various forms of atmospheric pollution from gas flaring to fossil fuel/green house emissions!

The United States ordered the dropping of Hydrogen Bombs twice on the Japan's cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to punish that country for stubbornly refusing to surrender to the Allied Forces during the Second World War! America claims to be world's most powerful nation and universal POLICEMAN but always rivaled by Russia militarily and China economically! Following closely behind them are the United Kingdom and France, all of them who now have permanent seats with VETO POWERS as the inner caucus of the United Nations Security Council!

THERE WAS A WORLD WAR ONE!

War I or the First World War (28 July 1914 – 11 November 1918), also known as the Great War, was a global conflict between two coalitions: the Allies (or Entente) and the Central Powers. World War I began after the assassination of Austrian archduke Franz Ferdinand by South Slav nationalist Gavrilo Princip on June 28, 1914.

AND THERE WAS A SECOND WORLD WAR!

World War II or the Second World War (1st September 1939 – 2nd September 1945) was a global conflict between two coalitions: the Allies and the Axis powers. Nearly all the world's countries—including all the great powers—participated, with many investing all available economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities in pursuit of total war, blurring the distinction between military and civilian resources. Tanks and aircraft played major roles, with the latter enabling the strategic bombing of population centres and delivery of the only two nuclear weapons ever used in war. World War II was the deadliest conflict in history, resulting in 70 to 85 million fatalities, more than half of which were civilians. Millions died in genocides, including the Holocaust of European Jews, and by massacres, starvation, and disease. Following the Allied powers' victory, Germany, Austria, Japan, and Korea were occupied, and war crimes tribunals were conducted against German and Japanese leaders.

WHAT TRIGGERED WORLD WAR TWO?

The causes of World War II included unresolved tensions in the aftermath of World War I and the rises of fascism in Europe and militarism in Japan, and it was preceded by events including the Japanese invasion of Manchuria, Spanish Civil War, outbreak of the Second Sino-Japanese War, and German annexations of Austria and the Sudetenland. World War II is generally considered to have begun on 1st September 1939, when Nazi Germany, under Adolf Hitler, invaded Poland. The United Kingdom and France declared war on Germany on 3rd September.

How Did World War I and World War II Vary In Terms of the Number of Casualties? WWII was more deadly and widespread than WWI, which had around 8.5 million military fatalities, with over 16 million military fatalities and an estimated 70-85 million overall casualties, including civilians.

THE WORLD IS SUPPOSED TO BE AT PEACE BUT......?

1. A UKRAINE AND RUSSIA WAR IS ONGOING!

Presently, the Ukraine - Russia War is over two years - 24th February 2022 - TO DATE, with a continuous record of daily fatalities/calamities /casualties on both sides!

This is a war of illegal occupation of a sovereign state by a World Power that should normally protect it! Russia has laughed off Ukrainian claims that the brutal war between the two countries is near an end. Earlier this week (22nd September 2024), at UNGA 79, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the war with Russia could end sooner than some people think. BUT Russian foreign ministry Sergey Lavrov said Moscow’s response to Kyiv was simply to keep winning the war, which he said was “unleashed by Western countries at the hands of Ukrainians”. He said: “The victory is needed. They [the West] do not understand any other language. This victory will be ours, we have no doubt.” Mr Lavrov added that Russians had become “truly united in the face of war”.

2. AND AN ISRAEL - HAMAS/HEZBOLLAH - CONFLICT IS RAGING : OCTOBER 7, 2023- TO DATE!!

A day after Hamas launched its 7th October 2023 attacks on Israel, IRAN-backed Hezbollah joined the conflict, citing support for the Palestinians, by firing on Shebaa Farms, Safed, Nahariya, and other Israeli military positions. Since then, Hezbollah and Israel have been involved in cross-border military exchanges that have displaced entire communities in Israel and Lebanon, with significant damage to buildings and land along the border. From 7th October 2023 to 20th September 2024, there were 10,200 cross border attacks, of which Israel launched 8,300. Over 96,000 people in Israel and over 111,000 in Lebanon have been displaced. As of 24th August 2024, there were 564 confirmed deaths in Lebanon, including 133 civilians. Israel and Hezbollah have maintained their attacks at a level that causes harm without escalating into a full-scale war.

Hezbollah has stated it will continue attacking Israel until Israel halts its operations in Gaza, where over 40,000 Palestinians have been killed!!!!

PRECEDING NARRATIVES ARE WORLD POWERS STRATEGY OF DIVIDE & RULE!

The World Powers were the COLONIALISTS, the WAR MONGERS, the NEO-COLONIALISTS and now pretending to be TRUCE BROKERS!

Conflicts are ongoing in about 40 Countries including South Sudan Afghanistan, Iran, DR Congo, India etc! Hypocrisy is their PAST TIME because it is an open secret that they cannot survive without developing nations (especially Africa & some Far East Countries), from where major natural resources for industry and production are regularly sourced!

ECONOMIC SANCTIONS were slammed on non-cooperative nations and highly-indebted States were cowed into complying with World Bank & International Monetary Fund (IMF) very stringent financial regulations that would keep them SUB-SERVIENT LIKE NIGERIA FOREVER!

NOT THROUGH PRODIGAL/EXTRAVAGANT EXPENDITURES!

For example, President Bola Tinubu spent N9.2billion To Purchase 'State House Vehicles' In Three Months Amid Hardships - March - May 2024 - apart from NGN160 billion expended in 2023 for the purchase of Foreign Vehicles for the Executive and National Assembly (NASS), and the new PRESIDENTIAL AIRCRAFT at N150 billion naira plus N5 billion naira for a luxurious YATCH with borrowed. monies - AND HAD THE EFFRONTERY TO SHAMELESSLY BEG FOR DEBT FORGIVENESS AT UNGA 79!!!!¡

THE PANACEA TO WORLD PEACE IS FOR MEN TO DWELL IN THE WORD OF GOD AND NOT IN THE EPHEMERAL THINGS OF THE WORLD THAT WOULD PERISH!

Psalms 133:1-3. " Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

[2]It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;

[3]As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

Psalms 133:1-3. EXPOSITION:

We cannot say too much, it were well if enough could be said, to persuade people to live together in peace. It is good for us, for our honour and comfort; and brings constant delight to those who live in unity.

The pleasantness of this is likened to the holy anointing oil. This is the fruit of the Spirit, the proof of our union with Christ, and adorns his gospel.

It is profitable as well as pleasing; it brings blessings numerous as the drops of dew. It cools the scorching heat of men's passions, as the dews cool the air and refresh the earth.

It moistens the heart, and makes it fit to receive the good seed of the word, and to make it fruitful.

See the proof of the excellency of brotherly love: where brethren dwell together in unity, the Lord commands the blessing.

God commands the blessing; man can but beg a blessing. Believers that live in love and peace, shall have the God of love and peace with them now, and they shall shortly be with him for ever, in the world of endless love and peace. May all who love the Lord forbear and forgive one another, as God, for Christ's sake, hath forgiven them.

 WORLD NATIONS MUST UNITE & BE AT PEACE TO AVOID WORLD WAR THREE WHICH SEEMS IMMINENT !!!!!

ENOUGH OF MILITARY MEDDLESOME INTERLOPERS!

ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.

 A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria. {Vol. 13. NO 570. 22nd September 2024} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32). PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

ENOUGH OF MILITARY MEDDLESOME INTERLOPERS!

Just like the THREE MUSKETEERS, Generals, Obasanjo, Babangida and Abdusalam converged at the Hill Top residence of IBB on 15th September 2024, for a crucial meeting believed to be informed by the precarious state of the Nigerian Nation currently dangling on the precipice under the watch of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu!

QUESTIONS.

* Have they totally forgotten they contributed to the current imbroglio of large-scale institutional corruption through non-accountability of CRUDE OIL SALES/WINDFALL from the '70s and especially in the year 2,000, during IBB'S JUNTA?

* What about extra-judicial killings/assassinations of supposed opposition/enemies?

* Distribution of the National Asset of OIL BLOCKS to friends and cronies to enrich them at the expense of the poor masses?

* Are they not all stinkingly-rich and very wealthy Billionaires?

* On whose behalf or with whose backing are they still behaving as if they were currently in the seat of power?

* Do they still enjoy influence and loyalty in the Nigerian Army?

* Can they still influence a MILITARY COUP?

* Are they still a force to be reckoned with in view of the agitation by the PEOPLE for a Parliamentary System of Government through Executive Bill for a brand New Constitution & Referendum to lawfully ratify and give teeth to its immediate implementation?

* Was it not time for them to back off from the political glare & disappear fully to retirement life or would prefer to WAKE UP RAWLINGS FROM THE GRAVE?

Below are MORE ATROCITIES perpetrated by the pretentious Generals!

* 1983, (ousted democratically- elected President Shehu Shagari through General Muhammadu Buhari);

* 1993, (Babangida annulled the credible election won by business mogul Moshood Abiola);

*1999, (Abdusalam foisted a concocted military constitution on Nigerians);

* 2010 (they could not circumvent the Doctrine of Necessity initiated by National Assembly following the sudden demise of President Umaru Yar'Ardua of blessed memory for his Vice, Ebele Jonathan to step in and complete the 4-year term;

* 2015 (suffocated Jonathan out of office for Buhari's inordinate ambition for democratic presidency;

* 2017 (initiated possible successor to ailing Buhari in the case that he died in office);

* 2024 (initiating suitable replacement for Bola Tinubu who has become a "pain in their neck" because he stubbornly refused to listen to anyone)!!!!

* They believe or claim to own Nigeria!

CAN THE SOLDIERS FIX A COUNTRY THEY BASTARDIZED IN THREE DECADES?

Below are excerpts of our past publications - Editions 508 & 518 of 7th April & 16th July 2023 respectively:

MILITARY MANIPULATION MUST END ON MONDAY 29TH MAY 2023!

1) Downtrodden Nigerians can hardly wait for Monday 29th May 2023 to bid good riddance to the last of all the military merchants who have overstayed their welcome! For 57 years (1966 to 2023), they practically turned the country into a beggar nation through mismanagement of all natural endowments and deliberate failure develop Human Capital into full potential! According to the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) statistics, OUT OF SCHOOL CHILDREN IN NIGERIA has hit the 20 million Mark in the first quarter: January to March! Literacy figure in Nigeria according to the Nigeria Bureau of Statistics is 77.62% of the population has at 202. The figure grew by 13.9% between 2010 to 2021 are the rate of 0.13% year on year since then. With the advantage and benefit of hind sight it could be articulately posited that the majority of NIGERIAN ELECTORATE are illiterate because in 63 years of independence budgetary allocation for education was fixed at only 6% in spite of UNESCO recommendation of 15 to 20% of annual budgetary allocation for developing countries.

2) DIARCHY WILL NO LONGER WORK IN NIGERIA - TINUBU MUST NOT IDOLIZE SOLDIERS! Diarchy is a government administered by military and civilian components. The first and second coups January/July 1966 and up to the end of the BIAFRA WAR in January 1970 Nigerian soldiers dominated the entire landscape of the country by totally usurping all functions of democratic values and governance!

Abdusalam who took over following the demise of General Sani Abacha, handed over retired old General Olusegun Obasanjo who tried to perpetrate himself for a third term of 4 years (2007-2011), but was resisted by the Citizens!

And another military General during his 8- year tenure decided to perpetuate his chief security officers in office contrary to the Constitution and now that he has successfully installed as civilian president. It has manifested that his clandestine plan is still in place!

Buhari kept all Service Chiefs whom he appointed from 2015 - 2021 in spite of public outcry while citizens suffered degradation and insecurity through atrocities by Boko Haram terrorists!

President Bola Tinubu should rather listen to THE PATRIOTS led by Chief Emeka Anyaoku and the Citizens to whom SOVEREIGNTY belongs before it is too late because the ECONOMY IS GETTING WORSE BY THE DAY!

A Word is enough for the Wise! WE want to believe that Tinubu is wise!

NIGERIA IS A BASKET FULL OF WATER NOT VICTUALS!

ZION B-BC

 NEWSLETTER.

 A Publication of the Zion Faith Bible-Believing Church Kpeyegyi Abuja Nigeria. {Vol. 13. NO 569. 15th September 2024} “…ONLY The Truth, Will Set You Free! (John.8:32). PRAY & FAST EVERY WEDNESDAY TO STOP BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

NIGERIA IS A BASKET FULL OF WATER NOT VICTUALS!

All debates, dialogues, conversations, village square meetings even mass protests in respect of the state of the Nigerian Nation always point in one direction – THE DEARTH OF GOOD LEADERSHIP!

BUT die-hard apologists of the notorious Nigerian Politicians would always argue that the FOLLOWERSHIP should also share in various discrepancies of consecutive governments from the inception of independence from the colonial masters since 1960!

They claimed that the politicians were always under all manner of financial pressures in their various constituencies and had no option than to cut corners to meet such demands to remain relevant! And whereas, while they lavishly flaunted illicitly acquired wealth through loopholes of a faulty military constitution, only crumbs trickled down to the masses who supposedly voted them into political offices!

Of all World Citizens, Nigerians are the most RESILIENT BUT NEITHER STUPID NOR IMBECILES as the present Administration of President Bola Tinubu and his Cabal might want to assume!

THE GROUSE OF NIGERIAN CITIZENS AGAINST AN UNPREPARED & CLUELESS PRESIDENT!

* Tinubu had no right to unilaterally abrogate Petrol Subsidy on his inauguration day (29th May 2029), when he was yet to assume office or form a Cabinet!

*His declaration of Foreign Exchange merger and Naira Floating was disastrous and unethical to commerce, industry and economics in an unproductive nation dependent on TOTAL IMPORTATION OF FINISHED PRODUCTS AND SERVICES!

*That inspite of the catastrophic ripple effects of his very unthoughtful and unprofessional action on the people through unrestricted inflation on Farm Produce, colossal fall and depreciation of NAIRA and an exchange rate from N450 to an all-time N1,650 to $1USA Dollar, Mr. Tinubu failed to REVERSE the unfortunate actions!

*He failed to verbally address agitated #EndBadGovernance Protesters inspite of over a 3-week notice until about 21 innocent lives were lost across the country on the first day 1st August 2024!

*He could not admit that his inordinate ambition beclouded his composure but kept repeating that he was a REFORMER just as his predecessor claimed to be a DEMOCRAT!

*He described the vexatious sufferings as the pangs of CHILD BIRTH which would FIZZLE OUT SOON! IN 14 MONTHS HE WAS UNABLE TO ESTABLISH A CORRUPTION-FREE GOVERNMENT BECAUSE HE LACKED PEDIGREE!

 The following Catastrophes still bedevil the country without solutions in sight!

1) Roundabout Porous Borders – free-for-all avenues for smuggling of all commodities – foods, vehicles, petroleum products etc, from Nigeria to ECOWAS, easy entry and exit for hardened criminals, bandits, terrorists etc;

2) Large scale OIL THEFT/BUNKERING & MINERAL RESOURCES PRODUCTS to oversea countries through ships/helicopters with succinct internal connivance of greedy and unpatriotic security personnel!

3) Election riggings – which are eventually settled at the courts and NOT through BALLOT BOXES!

4) Impunity by government institutions at the Federal and Sub-national levels.

5) Disobedience to “lawful” Court Orders!

6) The 15-year- long Boko Haram insurgency which began August 2009!

7) Renewed attacks and killings of SECURITY PERSONNEL – especially the Police and Army by daring non-state actors!

8) Ungoverned territories and spaces, where bandits reign supreme over unfortunate indigenes whose fundamental rights have been trampled upon in the North East/North West regions of the country!

9) Comatose Manufacturing Sector of the Economy.

10) Electricity is a luxury especially among the downtrodden masses BUT tariff for regular monthly darkness has skyrocketed to over 300 per cent!

11) Lack of renewable energy to mitigate environmental pollution – electric, compressed natural gas (CNG), etc, outside of fossil consumption – especially now that DANGOTE REFINERIES debuted fully on stream with the production and sale of PETROL (PMS) from Sunday 15th September 2024.

12) Multiple Taxation of the low-income earners due to lack of competent digital financial experts who were deliberately sidelined to ensure that the Rich could always circumvent payment of taxes!

13) Massive unemployment of able-bodied youths numbering about 33 million who now constitute IDLE HANDS available for crimes/criminalities and greedy politicians at ELECTIONS!

14) Over 13 million out – of -school children are still roaming the streets of Nigeria according to UNESCO due to persistent maladministration!

15) Bola Tinubu’s Capitalist Government prefers to BORROW MONEY to pay salaries and allowances to politicians, purchase N160 billion naira Presidential Jet and brand new foreign Special Utility Vehicles at N170 million naira each for all 469 Legislators of the National Assembly and for officials/political appointees of the Executive and Head of the various Parastatals!

Generation of phantom figures to falsify cost of goods and services for illicit gains in respect of virtually all transactions – especially in respect of Capital Expenditures!

16) Annual padding of Federal Government BUDGET APPROPRIATION FIGURES after official presentation by National Assembly (NASS) Legislators!

17) Appropriation of a whooping sum of N90 billion naira as SUBSIDY for 2024 Hajj Pilgrimage!

18) Completion of the Vice President’s Lodge at a cost of N 22billion naira!

NNPCL ROLE AS SOLE DISTRIBUTOR OF DANGOTE REFINERIES PMS IS SHROUDED IN SECRECY!

Dangote refinery to sell petrol to only NNPCL – FG

EXCERPTS FROM THE PUNCH REPORT – SATURDAY 14th September 2024.

 *Federal Government has announced that the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited will be the sole buyer of Premium Motors Spirit from Dangote Refinery.

*Interested marketers would have to buy the product from the national oil firm through its trading company.

*This was part of the agreement reached with the management of Dangote Refinery on the commercial terms for the supply of crude oil to the refinery and the off-taking and distribution of petrol and diesel from the facility.

*The latest development, however, contradicts NNPC’s claim in a statement early this month that it does not intend to be the sole distributor of petrol produced by the Dangote refinery.

*The directive also implies that the government can still control the pricing of the product as it would be based on the agreement between the government and the refinery.

Dangote refinery will commence the distribution of petrol to marketers on Sunday with an initial 25 million litres per day.

*All agreements have been put in place, and the loading of the first batch of PMS, as already announced by NNPC, will commence on Sunday, September 15, 2024. And from October 1, NNPC will commence the supply of crude oil to Dangote Refinery to be paid for in naira. In return, Dangote Refinery will supply PMS and diesel of equivalent value to the domestic market to be paid for in naira.

*But for now, PMS will only be sold to NNPC. NNPC will then sell to various marketers.

*Diesel will be sold in naira by Dangote Refinery to any interested off-taker. All associated regulatory costs -NPA, NIMASA, Federal Inland Revenue and all other Regulatory fees that are associated with this transaction will be paid in naira.

*On July 29, the federal executive council approved a proposal by President Bola Tinubu directing the NNPC to sell crude oil to the Dangote refinery and other refineries in naira.

*The minister said the move would also eliminate unnecessary transaction costs, and improve the availability of petroleum products in the country.

And whereas Dangote operates in A FREE ZONE AREA THAT SHOULD BE FREE FROM GOVERNMENT INTERFERENCE!

THE TRUTH ABOUT SOLE DISTRIBUTORSHIP!

Just like the Sole Importation debacle, NNPCL will be the sole Custodian of ALL INFORMATION in respect of all transactions that would be difficult to FACT CHECK!

(a) During Importation “landing cost was N1, 200 naira… so pump price must increase!”

(b) Now in the era of Local Purchase, NNPCL could buy at N450 naira, declare cost as N800 naira, sell still at N950 naira …… and pocket all gains!

NNPCL has always been the most-corrupt Government institution – but the perpetrators should not forget that “EVERY LIE HAS A TERMINAL DATE”!

THIS FALSE MOVE WILL BE RESISTED! GOOD LEADERS WILL EMERGE AND NIGERIANS WILL NEVER BE SLAVES IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY!
