Strange Prophecies Of Primate Ayodele That Came To Pass In 2023
By Anyanwu Paul
You may want to think there is nothing like strange prophecies because no matter how we want to put it, a prophecy is a prophecy but permit me to stick to my understanding and insinuation that there are strange prophecies – I will define it.
Traditionally, prophets have one major subject they talk about which is politics; they prophesy about the next governor or president, the fate of politicians, and everything related to politics and that’s why most of them only get popular during election period but when we see prophecies that talk about deeper things than who will win an election but how the election will be won, how an administration will look like before it even starts, other sectors like education, security, economy, sports, individuals, it is quite strange.
When most prophets talk, they prophesy about almost the same thing but when someone in the prophetic ministry starts talking about subjects others don’t dare talk about for whatever reasons, you know such an individual is a ‘strange prophet’; This is what differentiate Primate Ayodele’s prophecies from every other prophet in the fold.
In Africa, Primate Ayodele can be considered as the strangest prophet on account of the kind of prophecies he churns out. He is the most vocal, talked about, shares the most prophecies about every subject and maintains his position as the most accurate prophet.
Unlike others that share prophecies in parables, Primate Ayodele’s prophecies can be understood by an unbeliever because he simplifies them – another strange character. He is the only prophet whose New Year prophecies run into over 90 pages unlike others that share a list of prophecies for the New Year. He is also the only prophet that publishes a prophecy booklet titled Warnings To The Nations annually containing prophecies for every country in the world, what a strange man!
Few days ago, there was a compilation of 150 prophecies of Primate Ayodele that came to pass in 2023, I doubt if any prophet in the world can make boast of just 20 of their prophecies that was fulfilled this year and this is not to say other prophets don’t hear God but Primate Ayodele just has a strange anointing.
In 2023 too, There are quite a number of strange prophecies of Primate Ayodele that came to pass, let’s take few moment to consider some:
1 Wike VS Fubara : When Primate Ayodele mentioned that there will be issues between the former governor or Rivers state, Nyesom Wike and his successor, Sim Fubara, many didn’t know it will ever come to pass because both of them had a good relationship. Even if it will happen, no one expected it to be soon because it’s obvious Wike brought Fubara to power and was expected to see Wike as his godfather but strangely, it happened. This was foretold immediately Fubara won the election at a time when there was no iota of ‘bad blood’ between the outgoing and incoming governor. No prophet spoke about this aspect of Rivers politics except Primate Ayodele.
2 Price of commodities: Another strange prophecy that came to pass in 2023 is the shocking prices of commodities in Nigerian markets now. Primate Ayodele in his 2023 prophecies had said that another APC government will bring economic woes to the nation. He then went ahead to point out some food items and foretold how much they will sell for before the end of the year.
‘’However, if we pick a wrong President, things are going to be very expensive. I foresee a bag of rice would be very expensive, two sachets of tomatoe paste would cost #500. Imported rice will be #80,000, #100,000, #120,000. Local rice #50,000 which will increase, vegetable oil price will be increased, palm oil, coke, bread and pure water, a sachet will go for #50 – #100. The essential commodities will attract increases in prices. Cement price will go to #4,800 – #5,000.’’
3 BVAS: Nigerians had so much hope in the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) because of the BVAS machine because they felt it will stop election fraud but many have lost hope after the 2023 presidential election. When he was talking about the 2023 presidential election, Primate Ayodele stated that BVAS will not be able to curb election malpractices and spoke about the court issues.
“BVAS is not the answer to Nigeria’s election malpractices, it has been manipulated. Some people will be rigged out technically; BVAS will rig out who is popular and bring in the unpopular. Don’t rely on BVAS, it is rigging in a technological way. Anyone who wins may not be removed by the court except God changes the mind of the judge; the rigging will be so perfect.”
4 Liberia Election: The former president of Liberia, George Weah faced the greatest shock of his life when he lost the presidential election that held some months ago. In a strange way, Primate Ayodele warned Weah eight times about his imminent loss of the election to the opposition party. Other prophets majorly said Weah will win the election but for Primate Ayodele, he didn’t only say Weah will lose the election but revealed how he will lose the election. Apart from that, He told Weah what to do in order to win the election but he didn’t listen, hence, leading to his loss.
5 US Political tension: Hardly do we see prophets talk about countries and continents beyond their confinement; if they are from Nigeria, they don’t go beyond their country and Africa but for Primate Ayodele, he touches every continent with his prophecies. The United States Of America experienced serious political tension in 2023 than even before . It was a year when the speaker of the house was removed for the first time in history and the year when electing a new speaker became a serious issue; two different people withdrew their ambition because they could not secure majority votes. Primate Ayodele accurately foretold this.
6 Obaseki VS Shaibu: Primate Ayodele who was the only prophet in Nigeria that foretold victory of Godwin Obaaseki warned that he foresees a fight between the governor and his deputy. He asked both of them to pray against misunderstanding but probably because everything was smooth between them then, they ignored the prophetic revelation.
7 Rotimi Akeredolu: The governor of Ondo state, Rotimi Akeredolu has been battling with health challenges for some time now. This is in fulfillment of the prophecy of Primate Elijah Ayodele which he noted in his annual book of prophecy titled ‘Warnings To The Nations’ released in July 2022. Primate Ayodele in the 2022/2023 edition of the prophecy book asked Nigerians to pray against ailment among sitting governors in the country. He warned that he foresees a sitting governor falling ill while in office.
8 Sierra Leone Military base attack: Among the most recent prophetic warnings that came to pass is the sudden attack on the main and largest military barracks and prison in Sierra Leone, raising fears of a breakdown of order amid a surge of coups in the region. Primate Ayodele had foretold this exact situation in his annual prophecy book titled Warnings To The Nations (2023/2024) edition which was released in July 2023. He categorically mentioned that there will be an attack on the military in Sierra Leone.
9 Donald Trump: Even though Primate Ayodele was among the few clerics who prophesied the surprising emergence of Donald Trump as the President Of The United States Of America (USA) some years back, He was still the major prophet who foretold his unfortunate loss at the last presidential election that produced Joe Biden.
For years, Primate Ayodele has been speaking about former President Donald Trump; His emergence as the president, how his administration will be perceived by the people, how he was going to lose the presidential seat, and what will become of him after his exit from the presidential seat.
It is very rare for former presidents especially in the USA to face serious legal issues that could lead them to jail or get them arrested and this made the prophecy of Primate Ayodele about Donald Trump to be incredible.
10 Godwin Emefiele: in April during an interview session captured in a video, Primate Ayodele was heard saying Godwin Emefiele will be faced with so many troubles as he foresaw his arrest. He also made it known that the CBN governor will be embarrassed unless he seeks the face of God. Just like he prophesied, Godwin Emefiele has been suspended and not only that, was arrested and imprisoned.
11 Israel and Palestine War: In his 2023 prophecies, Primate Ayodele foretold that there will be tension between both countries in the Gaza strip area. He revealed that he foresees fighting between their soldiers in the arena and that efforts to mediate will be futile.
‘’I foresee that in the Gaza Strip there will be serious troubles. This notwithstanding, I foresee that in the Gaza Strip, there will be a kind of bomb blast and fighting between the Israeli and Palestine soldiers. There will be protest in Gaza Strip against the activities of the Israeli security operatives. I foresee that the efforts of all the mediation committees will not yield any reasonable results.’’
It happened exactly how Primate Ayodele said it.
12 Coups: On October 7, 2022, Primate Ayodele in a live service at his Lagos Church told Ali Bongo to resign from the government and hand over to someone else because he foresees a crisis in the form of a military coup. The man of God cautioned Bongo from being selfish and holding on to power but sadly, instead of listening, the president went ahead to seek a third term in office and just when he was declared winner, his reign ended abruptly.
Also, two weeks before Niger Republic coup, , Primate Ayodele sent a warning to African leaders about an impending coup he foresees unless they address it and do the right thing. The man of God made the warning in a video that was shared on his TikTok account but it was ignored, hence, the event of a coup.
13 Alex Otti: No one thought the Labour Party’s candidate in Abia state, Alex Otti would win the governorship election in the state. The state has always been governed by the PDP so it was only normal that the party wins the election but Primate Ayodele’s strange prophecy concerning the ambition of Alex Otti which he revealed three years ago came to pass. The prophet had said three years before the election that Alex Otti will become the next governor of the state while advising APC to choose him as the party’s candidate.
These were his words
‘‘If APC makes use of Alex Otti, He will deliver for APC, He is the only one that can stand in APC come 2023.’’ (https://dailypost.ng/2020/08/25/primate-ayodele-predicts-anointed-candidate-for-abia-apc-warns-gov-akeredolu/)
14 Nnamdi Kanu: Primate Ayodele had said this year that it will be difficult for the government to released Nnamdi Kanu. He made it known that there will be back and forth but the government will not release him. Just last week, the Supreme Court denied him bail and declared that he should be put on trial.
15 Exchange Rate: when we got into 2023, nobody envisaged that a dollar will exchange for more than N1,000. It was barely N600 in the black market and N400 at the official market but Primate Ayodele’s 2023 prophecies captured that the exchange rate will rise to N1,500/$.
“Terrorism and sanitary will be a thing of the past if Nigeria gets the right president. The question now is how Nigeria would get the right president. But if we get the wrong person, fuel will rise to N1,500 per litre, dollars will rise to N1,500; and insecurity will be alarming.”
At the moment, Dollar is N1,200 at the black market and close to N1000 officially. Just like other prophecies, Primate Ayodele was the only one that foretold this strange development and it’s currently happening.
16 Gambia Coup Attempt: The Gambian government says it has foiled a military coup attempt and arrested four soldiers allegedly plotting to overthrow President Adama Barrow’s administration.
This is in fulfillment of Primate Ayodele’s prophecy which he issued some months ago in a video shared on his church’s social media page.
In the video, Primate Ayodele warned Adama Barrow of some steps he is taking which he said will lead to serious troubles in the country and that a military intervention may take place if care isn’t taken.
17 Chelsea: Primate Ayodele’s prophecy on the performance of Chelsea FC has been coming to pass since the beginning of the year. He said last season that the club is cursed and will need the blessing of the former owners in order to succeed. He said in his 2023 prophecy that the club will not perform well.
18 Ghana economy: 2023 was not an easy year for the people of Ghana. There were several protests and demonstrations against the president due to the economic issue faced in the country. Primate Ayodele in his 2023 prophecies mentioned that the country will face issues regarding economy in the year.
‘’GHANA: I foresee the economy of the country will have issues. The economic downturn will cause a big problem for the standard of living of the people. I foresee there will be Political tension and insecurity problems in Ghana. There will be protests against the President’’
19 APC Chairman: the former chairman, Abdullahi Adamu was disgraced out of office and took his leave unceremoniously. Primate Ayodele in his prophecy shared that Adamu will be disgraced out of office. This prophecy was shared at a time Adamu was enjoying a smooth relationship with APC chieftains.
‘’I foresee he will be disgraced and confused out of office. He needs to pray against political robbery. He must be very careful’’
20 EFCC: The former chairman of the EFCC, Abdulrasheed Bawa’s travail was revealed by Primate Ayodele in his 2023 prophecies. Before then, Bawa was the star of the anti-corruption agency but Primate Ayodele said he won’t be appreciated. As he revealed, Bawa was sacked, imprisoned before finally gaining freedom; he was embarrassed out of office.
‘’The Anti-Corruption Agency people are doing their best. But the man at the EFCC helms of affairs Bawa will not be appreciated. There are many secrets that they can’t expose, if they do, Nigeria will sink.’’

BURATAI COMMENDS PRESIDENT TINUBU’S RADICAL POLICY APPROACH AT AMAEICHI’S 60TH BIRTHDAY LECTURE

BURATAI COMMENDS PRESIDENT TINUBU’S RADICAL POLICY APPROACH AT AMAEICHI’S 60TH BIRTHDAY LECTURE
His Excellency Ambassador Lieutenant General Tukur Yusufu Buratai (Rtd), former Chief of Army Staff, delivered compelling remarks at the commemorative lecture marking the 60th birthday of Nigeria’s renowned politician and statesman, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi, held in Abuja on 31 May 2025.
In his remarks, Buratai paid homage to the celebrant, acknowledging his longstanding relationship dating back to 2011 when Amaechi was governor of Rivers State. He described Amaechi as a leader deeply committed to security and political development, noting his performance at the APC 2022 presidential primaries and his promising political future.
“Rotimi Amaechi exemplifies a leader who prioritizes security, a trait crucial for Nigeria’s stability,” Buratai remarked. He praised the former governor’s proactive engagement in Nigeria’s political landscape, emphasizing his significant influence and leadership potential. Buratai also took the opportunity to commend President Bola Tinubu’s government for adopting a radical approach to resolving Nigeria’s economic problems through decisive policies, a move he described as a “necessary departure” from previous graduations approach to economic reforms by the previous administrations. He explained that while past administrations, from IBB’s structural adjustment programs to those of Shagari, Obasanjo, Jonathan, and Buhari, fuel subsidy regimes, they implemented economic reforms that gradually pauperized Nigerians. However, the current administration’s decisive and comprehensive economic policies represent a bold attempt to address deep-seated socio-economic issues confronting Nigeria over the years. Buratai said this bold measure has its advantages. Deep understanding is required to allow for the realization of its benefits.
“The radical measures are a decisive shift from the gradual suffering in the past,” Buratai stated. “It shows a willingness to confront the challenges head-on, even if the impact is profound and immediate.”
However, he acknowledged that the main challenge remains the perceived insensitivity of government policies to poverty and insecurity, which are real. He postulated that the second half of this administration may make a tangible difference.
Buratai’s speech underscored the importance of embracing reform with resilience and urged Nigerians to support Tinubu’s government’s efforts to restore security and economic prosperity. The event was attended by prominent political figures, security experts, and members of Nigeria’s elite, all paying tribute to Amaechi’s contributions to the nation’s development and leadership.

Tinubu Is Nigeria’s Problem: A Mastermind of the Rot, Not Just Its Symptom

Tinubu Is Nigeria’s Problem: A Mastermind of the Rot, Not Just Its Symptom
By George Omagbemi Sylvester
When Femi Oyewale argues that Bola Ahmed Tinubu is not Nigeria’s problem but merely a symptom of a rotting system, he severely underestimates the decades-long influence Tinubu has wielded in entrenching the very rot he now appears to embody. Tinubu is not a passive outcome of systemic failure, he is an active architect of it. From the 1970s to the present day, his strategic political maneuvers, shadowy alliances and godfather-style control have played a central role in shaping Nigeria’s broken political landscape. To excuse him as merely a byproduct is to erase history and absolve responsibility.
1. Tinubu’s Political Genesis Dates Back to the 1980s
Tinubu’s political journey didn’t start in 1999. By the late 1980s, he was already networking among Nigeria’s elite and leveraging his connections within the finance sector. By 1992, he became a Senator representing Lagos West under the Social Democratic Party (SDP). His time in the Senate may have been short-lived due to the Abacha coup, but it placed him firmly within the corridors of power. Following Abacha’s death, Tinubu emerged as one of the most influential members of the National Democratic Coalition (NADECO). While this earned him some democratic credibility, it also provided the perfect springboard for his political dominance.
2. The Lagos Empire: A Laboratory for Corruption and Control
Tinubu became Lagos State Governor in 1999 and quickly turned Nigeria’s commercial capital into his personal fiefdom. For eight years, he entrenched a political machinery so strong that Lagos politics became synonymous with Tinubu. Upon leaving office in 2007, he didn’t relinquish power, he merely changed seats. His handpicked successors, Babatunde Fashola, Akinwunmi Ambode, and Babajide Sanwo-Olu, all served at his pleasure. When Ambode dared show some independence, Tinubu crushed his re-election bid with swift vengeance.
Through Alpha Beta Consulting (a tax collection firm with opaque ownership linked to him) Tinubu reportedly controlled massive revenues flowing from Lagos State. According to a 2020 court filing by Dapo Apara, a whistleblower and former Managing Director of Alpha Beta, the firm was allegedly used for money laundering and tax fraud, enriching the Tinubu empire under the guise of “consultancy.” These accusations have never been credibly denied, only buried under political influence.
3. The Architect of Political Godfatherism
If godfatherism is one of Nigeria’s greatest political ills, Tinubu is its grandmaster. He didn’t just play politics, he industrialized it. By controlling party primaries, deciding who runs for office, and weaponizing loyalty, he ensured that no one could ascend in the political hierarchy without paying homage to him. This system of fealty over merit has undermined Nigerian governance, especially in the southwest.
His role in building the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2013, through a merger of several opposition parties, was not motivated by altruism or reform but by raw ambition. He handed Buhari the 2015 presidential ticket not because Buhari had a new vision for Nigeria, but because he saw a route to national influence. Nigeria got the short end of the stick — an inept presidency and a growing Tinubu empire.
4. Tinubu Enabled and Benefited from Buhari’s Failures
Tinubu didn’t just support Buhari in 2015 and 2019 — he marketed him as the savior of Nigeria. He dismissed warnings about Buhari’s incompetence and dictatorial past. When fuel prices surged, the economy tanked, and insecurity skyrocketed under Buhari, Tinubu remained silent. He was not just complicit; he was a stakeholder in the disaster. He protected the system that allowed Buhari to rule with impunity because he wanted to inherit it.
When the #EndSARS protests erupted in 2020, implicating state-backed repression and calling out Tinubu’s political network in Lagos, he downplayed the movement, branding it anarchic. Rather than stand for justice, he chose self-preservation. Can someone who actively shields tyranny and corruption be called merely a “symptom”?
5. 2023 Elections: Rigging, Violence, and Ethnic Division
The 2023 elections were among the most controversial in Nigeria’s recent democratic history. Tinubu’s emergence as President was mired in widespread reports of vote suppression, intimidation and electoral fraud — particularly in Lagos and Rivers states. Despite glaring irregularities, Tinubu and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) bulldozed through public outrage. His infamous “emi lokan” (“it’s my turn”) declaration in Ogun was not a rallying cry for reform but an arrogant assertion of entitlement. This entitlement is not symptomatic, it is pathological.
He ran on a platform devoid of coherent policy and has since offered Nigerians nothing but hardship. Under his leadership, fuel subsidy removal was carried out with zero planning, leading to astronomical transportation and food prices. The naira was floated into chaos, sparking inflation and economic suffering across the board. Rather than act swiftly, Tinubu flew overseas (often) while Nigerians were told to “tighten their belts.”
6. Unresolved Drug Trafficking Allegations
Tinubu’s defenders routinely downplay or deflect the long-standing allegations of drug trafficking from his past. However, U.S. court records from the 1990s show that the U.S. government confiscated $460,000 from Tinubu’s account due to suspicious narcotics-related activities linked to a Chicago heroin ring. While he was never criminally convicted, the forfeiture is a stain that no amount of political spin can wash away. For someone who would later become President of Africa’s largest democracy, this kind of baggage is not symptomatic, it is toxic.
7. Tinubu Is the System
To say Tinubu is not the problem is to misunderstand the scale of his political footprint. Nigeria’s systemic rot — corruption, cronyism, ethno-regional division and elite capture, has not just enabled Tinubu; Tinubu has, in turn, enabled and fortified that rot. He is not a passive result of the system. He has redesigned, monopolize and weaponized that system for personal gain.
He didn’t find Nigeria broken, he helped break it. He didn’t inherit dysfunction, he orchestrated it. He didn’t stumble into power, he built the path with manipulation, deception and ruthless calculation.
8. A New Narrative Must Begin with Accountability
If Nigeria is to be rescued from its current nightmare, we must reject the narrative that those who have led us into the abyss are mere victims of circumstance. Leadership is responsibility. History demands accountability. Tinubu is not a victim of the system. He is a prime beneficiary and chief engineer of its worst aspects.
To absolve Tinubu is to excuse the decades of deceit, exploitation, and anti-democratic tendencies he has propagated. It is to silence the voices of millions of Nigerians whose lives have been destroyed by decisions made in his boardrooms and war rooms.
Final note
Let’s be clear: Tinubu is not just the face of Nigeria’s political decay; he is one of its principal architects. Unlike many who stumbled into power or inherited broken structures, Tinubu actively built his political empire through transactional politics, godfatherism, suppression of dissent, and the manipulation of public institutions. He is not a mere symptom, he is both the disease and the enabler.
Blaming “the system” without naming and confronting its engineers only ensures that Nigeria remains a nation circling the drain. Until Nigeria confronts Tinubu and all he represents, no true progress can be made.

Political Terrorism in Disguise: How Tinubu and the APC Regime Are Destroying Nigeria (OPINION)

Political Terrorism in Disguise: How Tinubu and the APC Regime Are Destroying Nigeria (OPINION)
By George Omagbemi Sylvester
In every functioning democracy, political parties are expected to act as agents of progress, social development and economic upliftment. However, what we have witnessed in Nigeria since the All Progressives Congress (APC) took over in 2015, and particularly under the current presidency of Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is nothing short of calculated political and economic terrorism against the Nigerian people. It is time to call a spade a spade: supporters and defenders of the APC and Tinubu are enabling a regime that is choking the life out of the Nigerian state, destroying livelihoods and plunging millions into multidimensional poverty.
This is not an exaggeration. It is a fact-based analysis of a devastating political reality.
The Legacy of Ruin Since 2015
Under the APC, Nigeria has experienced a historic economic collapse. According to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), over 133 million Nigerians are now living in multidimensional poverty as of 2022, a staggering increase from roughly 70 million in 2015. This includes not only income poverty, but also lack of access to healthcare, education and clean water/basic human rights.
The inflation rate stood at 33.69% in April 2025, the highest in over two decades and food inflation reached an unbearable 40.53%. Even staple foods like rice, garri, yam and bread are becoming luxuries. The naira has collapsed to ₦1,500/$ in the parallel market, despite multiple promises to stabilize the economy. These are not random economic mishaps. They are the results of deliberate and reckless policies that benefit a corrupt elite while ordinary Nigerians are strangled by hunger, joblessness and despair.
Political and Economic Terrorism Defined
Terrorism is commonly defined as the use of violence or coercion to instill fear for political ends. When a political party or regime consistently impoverishes its citizens, muzzles dissent, manipulates the judiciary, rigs elections, loots public funds and weaponizes institutions against the people, what else can we call it if not state-sponsored terrorism?
Economic terrorism occurs when those in power deliberately sabotage the economic well-being of their people for personal or political gain. APC policies from the arbitrary fuel subsidy removal without any safety net, to the disastrous naira redesign policy that paralyzed the informal economy; fit this definition perfectly.
Dr. Obadiah Mailafia, former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, once said:
“What is happening in Nigeria is not normal governance. It is a form of political and economic warfare against the Nigerian people.”
Supporters of this regime are therefore not innocent bystanders. They are collaborators in the oppression of over 200 million people.
Tinubu’s Travesty of Leadership
President Bola Tinubu assumed office in May 2023 under a cloud of controversy and allegations. His electoral victory was contested nationwide and criticized by international observers. Former U.S. Ambassador to Nigeria, John Campbell, noted that the 2023 election was “deeply flawed” and “failed to meet the expectations of a democratic process.”
Since assuming power, Tinubu has spent more time abroad than at home, squandering millions of dollars on foreign trips while Nigerians sleep hungry. A staggering ₦10 billion was spent on solar panels for the Aso Rock Villa amid epileptic national grid supply. How do we reconcile this with the fact that over 70% of Nigerians live without steady electricity?
In March 2024, it was revealed that the federal government allocated ₦15 billion for the renovation of the Vice President’s residence. Yet, universities remain underfunded, healthcare is in shambles and ASUU strikes loom.
Is this not economic sabotage at the highest level?
Defenders of Tyranny: The New Faces of Terrorism
Those who continue to support and defend this administration, despite the glaring evidence of its failure, are not simply partisan loyalists but they are enablers of oppression, agents of poverty and defenders of a system that is hostile to human dignity. They are no different from accomplices to armed robbers.
Professor Chidi Odinkalu, former Chairman of the National Human Rights Commission, once remarked:
“The worst kind of oppression is when those who are suffering become the cheerleaders of their own oppressors.”
Defenders of Tinubu and the APC fall squarely into this tragic category. They demonize critics, rationalize incompetence and gaslight an entire population suffering under a failed state.
Corruption as a Weapon of Control
Nigeria’s Auditor-General reports over ₦20 trillion unaccounted for in government spending between 2015 and 2023. Tinubu’s government continues the tradition of unbridled corruption. Ministers live like monarchs while civil servants are owed months of salaries. Oil theft has become institutionalized and subsidy scams remain unpunished.
Meanwhile, whistleblowers are silenced, opposition figures are harassed and the media is under attack. The EFCC, DSS, and police have become tools of intimidation. This is not democracy. It is an authoritarian kleptocracy wearing democratic makeup.
The International Community Watches in Disbelief
The international community has not been silent. The U.S. District Court ruling in 2024 compelled the FBI and DEA to release documents linking Bola Tinubu to alleged drug trafficking operations in the 1990s. While the government continues to deny and dismiss these allegations, the implications for Nigeria’s image are catastrophic.
Renowned African intellectual, Professor Patrick Lumumba, warned:
“Any nation that allows criminals to govern its affairs must prepare for the funeral of its democracy.”
Indeed, under Tinubu and the APC, Nigeria is attending its own political funeral, dressed in the garb of poverty, injustice and widespread hopelessness.
Final Note: The Time to Speak Is Now
Nigeria cannot afford the luxury of silence anymore. Every day spent under APC rule is another day closer to total collapse. Defenders of this regime are not just misguided, they are collaborators in a grand national heist.
They are political and economic terrorists.
And just like Boko Haram and bandits who destroy with guns, these ones destroy with policies, silence, and complicity. Their weapons are not bullets, but budgets; not bombs, but lies; not grenades, but corruption. And the result is the same: pain, death and national ruin.
The words of Martin Luther King Jr. ring true:
“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”
Let us not be silent. Let us name and shame. Let us call them what they are.
This is not opposition for opposition’s sake. This is a fight for Nigeria’s soul.
If Nigeria must live, the political terrorists killing it must be held accountable, one by one.
