Effective political leadership requires the courage to implement difficult reforms that may cause short-term hardship for citizens, as demonstrated by President Tinubu's removal of fuel subsidies, which supporters argue saved Nigeria from bankruptcy despite initial public resistance and economic challenges.

And sorry to the Arsenal uh supporters, the Arsenal supporters uh for your loss and congratulations again to the PSG supporters for your win. So we have something more uh serious okay to talk about on Mayun's diary political uh tonight. So yesterday we saw uh the threat from the um terrorist who took the school children in your state and the uh school teachers as well. The threat of killing one of them and the response of those in government, the kind of like a blame game and all that continues while in Lagos where uh the APC governors met with Tinumbu and they were there as usual. All right. So uh massages ego and pretty much like they are completely uh you know completely from different world to what is the reality in Nigeria today. So hopeba that is said the IMO state governor who led the guys the APC governors to go and pay homage to callu said in kind of praises of Tiffu. He said Tinubu is the uh founder of the new Nigeria. a kind of uh you know uh jeers at the obedient people who are pretty much advocating for a new Nigeria is possible. So said Tinumbu is the founder of the new Nigeria. So whatever Nigeria you have right now okay is is creation. And then Edwara state governor who was also there uh went on again to uh talk about how uh tinu has increased the allocations to uh monthly allocations to the states that they get more money now. All right. And therefore some of them are currently paying off their debts and all of that stuff. So which means the economy is back and that's what call himself said the economy is back. But majority of you did not know that he took a bullet like it took a whole bullet for the whole country and that's why everybody uh seems to blame him but right now Nigeria economy has recovered so well and on the issue of uh insecurity right I'm going to share what their chart is all about that's where we're going to start from uh this evening let's start from the bing part and today the NDC the bet group have uh affirmed him as their presidential candidate in what they all agree to be right that is the kickoff for them or they say well the job has started sort of right so I'm going to take you through that as well and the line is very much opened you know like from the get- go but let's start with the gathering of the hawks out is the founder of the new Nigeria whatever you have right now consider that as the new Nigeria.
>> Mr. President, you are the founder of the new Nigeria.
We are the frontline beneficiaries of the innovative approach you brought to bear in governance.
We came to join you in thanking Almighty God who made this thing possible.
You have virtually recovered Nigeria from the road of collapse to that of stability and survival.
We your field officers at the subnational level are indeed very very grateful. We have assessed your performance and Mr. President, I'm happy to announce that we have scored your performance 100%.
We thank you for the genius you are, the fatherly role you have played, your interventions in times of our needs and your vision for the country moving forward. We want to inform you, Mr. president that we are proud to be your ambassadors at the subnational level and we are here to defend your policies to preach your message and to let Nigerians know that we have come out from darkness and then the right light is now ready to shine. You brought us hope and we believe in you. We say that may this period of salah and this holy period bring you good health, courage, determination to continue to stir the ship of state and may almighty God bless you and continue to encourage you. This we pray in Jesus name. Thank you.
itions are just special creatures, right?
Obusa, that is the emo state governor, he is accused of mismanaging uh 800 billion naira, the money they have been deducting from the federal allocation to states. You that itself is illegal. It's a crime.
But that is the governor of the I'm sorry that's the leader of the governor's forum oppos of uh Imo state. So they accused him. They even plotted to remove him because he mismanaged 800 billion NRA that they deducted from the federal allocation to state controlled by APC deducted in order to be used for the reelection of Tinumbu and then they created what they called the renewed hope ambassadors. Have you been hearing about them anymore?
Probably not. So that money they were deducting from states total of over 800 billion naira disappeared and it got all other governors very angry but somehow eh they managed to keep him as said the progressives governor's forum chairman and yeah brought Nigeria back from darkness States are getting more money. But how come the level of poverty continue to rise and rise and rise? They are cheap and all of that. How come they are the ones who are telling him that things are getting better? And they even declared nearly 11 million votes in their primaries for him to make him feel like he's comfortable.
But is that the reality? Sort of.
Uh I'll give you an example.
The time when Okuari was your preced right an average local government in Nigeria was receiving as much as 500 million naira and when you compare the value of Nigerian naira then uh to now hang on.
So that's like a one I mean 1.2 2 $1.3 million today on that call when they have devalued Nigerian naira.
Well, you know the exchange be 1,600 NRA to $1, a local government is being paid for example averageely 1 billion NRA or maybe 1.2 billion NRA.
You see that stretch? It seemed like the local government are getting times sorry times three of what they used to get which is the propaganda that these criminals are pushing.
What is the value of that uh 1.2 billion naira 980 970,000 it's not even up to a million dollar.
Now do you see the difference when the local governments were getting 450 500 that value of that at the time a naira's value to dollar was $1.2 million today they are getting $1.2.3 into 1.3 billion which sounds like more money on the table. They never really get the money anyway but the governors kind of get the money. That is why they are assuring that he shouldn't be worried.
They will perfect it and he is always going to win his re-election.
Listen to state governor too.
>> Well uh Mr. President Mara De Setler.
Now my speech goes to repeat basically what um the governor of Imoset has said but I truly like to capture your courage and um only 1% of politicians in my opinion would take the decisions you took. I remember we were in China when I got a call from the national security advisor and the DGDs saying that all subsidy will be removed and there's no going back. We went into panic mode. I sent a message out to my colleagues at the NGF and nobody wanted to hear that.
I gathered um my colleagues in China with me. Then Governor Solu was there, Governor of Kaduna State and a few others. We met and said how will this how can this be implemented?
It was impossible.
Phone calls back to Nigeria and forth.
So we decided to book an appointment to see Mr. President to let him know that this cannot work.
Well, Mr. president invited us for dinner and um we went to dinner. We sat down and listened to his vision for Nigeria and at the end of the day we couldn't even bring up the topic. We don't even know if he had gotten security reports about why we were coming for dinner but we couldn't bring up the issue. We went back to our room and um we decided well we just have to implement it. So we called advised each other to call state security council meetings because we're expecting serious riots because our riots end bad government rights even before then and for lesser issues.
Well lo and behold we spent money we we mobilized the security agencies to everybody secure your state. Lo and behold on that day nothing happened.
There was no riots. there was no protest anywhere.
I think the nation was shocked by the audacity of Mr. President to implement that serious um policy. Now today we've benefited immensely from that policy. I can say as a matter of fact in my own state when we get the FC allocation after paying salaries we're left with a 100 or 200 million and then mark it cost about 100 million to build a kilometer of road. So all states resorted to issuing bonds and borrowing money. Today states are not going to borrow money. They're not going to issue bonds. In fact, we're reducing our debt burden. Some states have pled the debts like Delta state has pled its debt. Um we inquire reduce our debt by 40%. Um so the benefits are there. Look, minimum wage has gone up and on the issue of minimum wage um most of the states are paying almost 100,000 naira today and I urge your excellency to let's have a discussion on moving the minimum wage to a minimum of 100,000. We know we'll get the normal support from you as we go ahead to implement that. Now I can keep talking about various projects across this country um like the Lagos Calaba which opens up a lot of investments like the Badagri Sukoto which opens a lot of investments the AKK um pipeline so there's a lot to say but what amazes me is your audacity to hold on to this report reforms and see it through and that is something that's commendable a round of applause because of Mr. President.
So, well, you've shown leadership and we're following you through. We'll continue to follow you um as you go along and we pray to God to give you the strength and wisdom to continue to lead Nigeria in the forthright manner which you have been doing. There's a lot to be said, but today is to wish you a happy salah.
And um some of our governors are in Saudi Arabia, the holy land, and a few of them sent their apologies. Uh state went for Judeo.
>> Let me save you because I still have like two other clips from these guys.
Those are the guys who possibly speaks to Callu every day. They have to tell him that those who are saying anything negative about him, they are just political enemies. You know what I mean?
your your idea your idea is so great.
You know this your reform, right? You have increased minimum wage even though you've devalued the currency by over 1,500%.
So, but nevertheless, you know, there's more money. It's just that it's so valueless. Before you came in, right, the crate of egg was uh how much? 350 naira or 600 NRA. Anyway, so today it is a 6,500 7,5 7,000 naira. So yeah, you know what? That that doesn't really matter. Your subsidy remover actually changed everything because you saved Nigeria from bankruptcy. Do you understand that kind of Yeah. Whatever people are facing right now, it is the hardship they have to endure while we enjoy. All right. And some of us are in Saudi Arabia praying for you, Mr. president to for God to continue to give you wisdom.
Ah those are the people who are in the situation rooms of Nigeria taking critical decisions or like making critical decisions important decisions that will affect millions of lives.
Listen to [ __ ] man was there too.
This season speaks to each of us because it teaches us the course of PE.
It teaches us the meaning of surrender.
It teaches us that the path to greatness is not paved by convenience but by the courage to give up what is easy so that what is necessary may live.
The story of Abraham peace be upon him is one by which we are all moved and in which we encounter the eternal grammar of leadership.
We are reminded that every great calling comes with a test and every test demands a sacrifice.
The path to destiny is never paved with applause.
It is paved with patience, with misunderstanding, with solitude and with the courage to choose tomorrow over the temporary comfort of today.
This is why Eidel Ada speaks so powerfully to those of us entrusted with public office.
Leadership is sacrifice.
Leadership is a decision to stand in the storm so that others may sleep in peace.
Leadership is a willingness to take over the burden of leadership.
The burden of seeing what others may not yet see and still walking towards it with P is one's compass and history as one's witness.
Your excellency Mr. President Ashola GCFR this is the essence of your leadership.
You did not come to power at a season of ease.
You came at a time when the house required more than a painter. It required a builder with the courage to examine the foundation.
You inherited a nation standing before difficult questions.
A nation trapped between the comfort of all illusions and the necessity of a new beginning. In that defining hour, you choose not to postpone the surgery.
You choose not to massage the wound. You choose to confront the contradictions that had held this country hostage for 50 years.
That Mr. President is the miracle of your courage.
What you have done is not simply to administer a government.
You have begun the difficult work of re-engineering a nation. You are reminded as the reform is not a banquet.
It is a battlefield.
It is not a picnic for the painhearted.
It is a covenant with the future.
You also came at a time when West Africa has become a peel of dangerous experiments, military adventurism, institutional collapse and geopolitical miscalculations.
Yet your leadership has kept Nigeria steady. You have spoken for democracy without sending imperial.
You have depended constitutional order without abandoning diplomacy. You have engaged war not with the insecurity of a begging nation but with the competence of a country conscious of its worth.
Because of you, Mr. President, Nigeria is not collapsing under the weight of inherited burdens.
Nigeria is becoming a case study in courage.
Nigeria is becoming a lesson in difficult reform.
Nigeria is becoming an example of what happens when leadership chooses a national interest over personal comfort.
Your Excellency, permit me to speak not only as your vice president, but as a witness.
I have watched you lead with a calm that conceal the burden of command.
I have watched you listen with the patience of a man who understand the mathematics of power.
I watch you decide with the courage of one who knows that the bad of history is open kinder it smoke it take him smoke >> so that's how they kind of have to all fine-tune their speeches to make the king feel good feel great Nigerians don't understand what you are doing for them Mr. presidents. All right. But we do we understand that the pains they are feeling today is for the joy that will come tomorrow and in the face of everything you have kept Nigeria steady or more see Niger.
This was just uh yesterday and a lot of people are still expecting the same government to do something. Remember this.
Please I am here again to beg the government presidentu and the governor of state engineer to please help us and dialogue with these people. They should not use force.
The force that they used yesterday has cost us so much. It has added to our problems. In fact, some one of us has been picked that they going to kill him because government tried to help us by force. We want you to call them and dialogue with them so that our lives.
That was yesterday. Just a refresher.
But to call and those who are making him feel good. All right. That he's done his best. He's doing his this and that. He has given this order. He has given that order. Anyway, this is what he told them too.
is a very great joy because as you are leaders in your various states, communities, you should be home receiving homages and uh uh other visitors to find time to come to this uh afternoon. this evening is so refreshing and it's a blessing for all of us.
May the sacrifice you make be blessed be accepted by almighty Allah.
I've asked the remarks, the joys in the heart and the fact that we pulled together at the time I faced the challenge of trying to become the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
It was very very challenging.
It was tough for those who are in the party with me.
Some kept faith and instead of dodging the bullet, I took it.
I took the point in the chin.
Very hard one.
I decided the effort to campaign.
I didn't disclose to anybody what I'll do.
Many of you took the risk and went along because of the party platform and everything.
We survived.
You face litigations and accusations.
We survived it.
Instead of bankruptcy, Nigeria has survived.
>> The economy has recovered, is growing, agriculture is huming, food is here.
And uh if we go on three times we will grow the satisfaction.
Today I was watching some clips of uh the so bad.
Imagine how many dams on that corridor for irrigation, for farming land, for electricity.
Well, many of you, you have survived and promoted the perseverance of many of our people, asking them to trust in this government.
and you build that trust around one person my leadership I thank you very much I thank you I can't say more than I'm grateful grateful to almighty God that we are here together to share whatever we have in each other's thinking and developmental programs.
I'm glad out of the 27 governors borrowing from federal government asking for interventions and all what not to survive to pay salaries.
No more.
You kept the spirit. You kept the hope.
You persuaded our people to be patient to endure this three years of painful reform.
Why we put put the economy on research?
Today the benefits is showing.
Economic has recovered.
Microeconomic indices are doing very well.
Construction is ongoing and roads infrastructure the ones abandoned have been you know rehabilitated.
Housing industry is coming on very well.
Agriculture will prosper again. We we achieve food sovereignty if we utilize the land that are in your possession and uh your various states effectively. Well, thank you very much for having the faith and keeping the night going.
That's all I can tell you. I am overjoyed that you left your state today of all this to pay this visit is down in history and well written in my heart. It's engraved. Thank you very much.
>> Now I have a question. Okay. And that question is for those of you who are watching from inside Nigeria right now.
So listening to callu reeling out the recovered economy you know your economy has recovered agriculture is growing the economy is growing uh you know but we don't see these farms remember when ku imported over 2,000 uh farm farm tools including tractors and the rest of them Okay.
And they were to be distributed you know to farmers but we still here we are yet to see any farm rather we have seen more communities who are like you know farming communities that have been attacked invaded northern part of Nigeria middle bed part of Nigeria and now the western part of Nigeria.
But he said you've got a food sufficiency when on recordh even tinus government continue to import food which is that rice they are sharing to everybody they are not growing them in Nigeria they continue to kind of like import to see if they could fill the l the gap but still not working because of terrorism and of course callous fake reform. If you're doing any reform on something, right, 3 years is actually enough for you to start seeing the difference.
But yeah, the builder of the new Nigeria.
Anyway, in a bad, the story is almost the same. The their governor Shim Maki was again today, I mean yesterday was there to unveil his own successor will be successor, right? But today he unveiled himself as the presidential candidate of APM and that was in Ibad today.
I'll show you. So Mind and his own emergence. Let's start with his statement on security and all that first or is unveiling. Let's watch that.
Hallelujah.
Your excellency be elected as the candidate of the Allied people's movement for the 2027 member election for position of having democratically. I hereby Baby, you dressing.
So Makande want to be uh president and he's kind of like a serious about it while the leaders of PDP are already dragging with we wiki on unveiling good luck Jonathan as their own candidate.
We're going to get to that part. So this was a market talking about the state of insecurity again especially the abducted children.
>> Today as I stand here some innocent school children and citizens are blocked by terrorists are still in captivity.
As governor state, I carry the painful body of it called the chief security officer.
Yet lacking constitutional control over the security agencies needed to fully confront this threat.
No governor should be placed in a situation where responsibility is placed on their shoulders but the necessary authority is with her.
As president of Nigeria come May 29, 2027, I will work to reform our national security architecture so that states are no longer left in moment of crisis.
The decentralization that we need for a more effective security will be prioritized.
The safety of Nigerians will not be treated as a political talking point.
It will be a national.
So that's him there. He said that he has no constitutional authority over the security armed forces also. So which is not that wrong but it's got some security I mean some constitutional power too especially when it comes to the laws that establish the local vigilante joint task force and the rest of that. But yeah we still have no idea what they actually really doing to free uh these captives.
Now talking about Mande by the way because ordinarily he is meant to be a PDP member Abi sorry that I haven't really picked your calls for a few of you who have been trying to call in.
Okay, it's just that your call came through when the videos were playing and I realized you probably couldn't wait through 2 3 minutes clip. All right, but if you call through right now I can easily take yours before I get to the next story. Okay, so it's about a PDP.
All right. Uh remember that uh last uh two weeks or thereabouts the a group of uh leaders called themselves um in PDP decided to uh choose the former president Jonathan as their presidential candidate. So he was invited for screening. He didn't show up but yet he was cleared. They gave him a waiver and also they expected him to also show up today to come and receive his certificate as the affirmation for being their presidential candidate. But there are other dramas. He didn't show up as well. But the other drama is that I'll come back to the story. Hang on. Here is a caller. Hello.
>> Hi.
>> How are you?
>> Yeah. Yeah. Allah is calling from Canada. So I've been listening to Canada.
>> Mhm.
>> Yeah. So yeah. Yeah. So I've been listening to your to this blue all the nonsense you've been talking about. But let me start from what this um governor said. You know did you hear him saying when removed sided a refort from Nigeria?
>> Yes. from Nigerians but because nothing happened to you know they announcing that Nigeria the indolence of Nigerians has now become their kid >> their validation >> that because yeah so that Nigerians indolence then that means that at least they are skilled in running the government I don't understand then the second one about this governor that that was pressing you know I pity that man >> is the according to their plan is going to be the next >> yeah you know the problem is this whatever you know if if a if anybody in Nigeria from any tribe >> something very much >> you know and an eman do the same and I man do the same thing you know an will be the target >> now you see by leaves office anybody that take over from will not run after because he has a live immunity is people like this who they be you know they'll be running after >> then >> escape and then by that time you know my by that time I don't want anybody to not be Eurobas are now be blaming that Eurobas are betrayer that >> they didn't go after but they are going after they will not be blaming you know because these people you know because these people you know that this you know how they do their things that if the president like if no matter what the president does nobody will run will come after him but >> they people.
>> Mhm.
>> Yes. Now, so you will see by that time people like you they will be running after.
>> So I pity the man. So and then you know your point is that he's currently laying his bed in what the future could turn to. If the table should turn, people like him will become easy target because he's actually a very strong member of Tinu's kind of caucus. So I mean the guys I found 800 billion NRA. Do you know why they didn't have to touch him?
Because he shared the money with Shi boys movement >> uh renew ambassadors >> all those gift they are sharing that you are seeing them giving people money.
uh sewing machines, freezers, deep freezers and all that, right?
>> Yeah.
>> That money was supposed to come from that contribution and it was supposed to be distributed at least in all the APC states but somehow they did it in few places and the money vanished. So they would now believe that scheme them. Yeah.
>> See they said they should present the account where they have always been donating the money right. he should present the account and he refused. But somehow one phone call from Tinumbu all of the agitating governors all of these daodu and co they just mellowed and the matter just died. So you are not totally wrong that if a new government takes office for instance right and decided to go after Tinumbu they won't go after Tinumbu himself this lieutenant and the role they play behind the scene. So I think I get that.
>> Okay. So that's my point. Bless you.
>> Thank you very much.
>> God bless you. Have a good one. Okay.
So, that's uh Senator from uh Canada.
Now, to the PDP stuff.
Jonathan is yet to actually come out to say, "Hey guys, enough. I am not interested. I am not running and I don't want to be a candidate of any party." He just kept quiet.
They took him to court and the court ruled that he's kind of eligible to contest. They didn't say anything. No comment, no nothing. This Jerry Ghana suino toki all these guys right they all came together and they said he has been I mean he's going to be their consensus presidential candidates.
Boom. He didn't see anything.
So now with a wiki is kind of mad you know with the wiki's group they are the only group recognized by the neck. So so with a wiki this may kind of alter whatever plan is put in place. So he called them illegal group. So he released a kind of a memo, okay, to all the uh what do you call this place? This event centers in Abuja, public and private that they will be penalized if if they should welcome any illegal group, political group to use their premises for show you get. I will continue the story. I'm getting there. Don't worry, I have another caller.
Hello.
>> Good.
>> Good evening.
>> This is Paul from Belgium.
>> Say that again. Paul from Belgium. Yes. How are you?
>> Hello. I'm very well baba. At least I'm still here.
>> And the family.
>> Well, we thank God though. Thanks so much for asking. How are you?
>> I'm fine. Well done. Well done for for the for the job you're doing. Well done.
back.
>> The the I want to ask these people uh are they not ashamed of themselves >> that Tinibu gathered the people to celebrate whatever they are celebrating.
Mhm.
>> If it is in the same if it is a same country take like this developed nations >> what happened recently the recent happenings is it not enough for the even the nation to mourn they shouldn't even celebrate anything because it's so it's an appall it's so appalling >> so so appalling you know what is the need for that what do you call that you know is that leadership assuming his own children were in the bushes >> or the children of his son like and all the rest assuming they own children they kidnapped and they were in the bushes will he be doing this celebration they are doing now I I doubt if they will do so So you see >> the Bible says do to others as you would like others to do unto you. So if you know he knows that what has happened if it were his own children or the children children he wouldn't do what he's doing.
So I don't think the man has empathy.
He's just uh doing what he likes. He doesn't even care whe in fact he doesn't know whether what was talking was total rubbish >> you know it was total rubbish fingers those ones who just want to make the king feel good I think >> yeah if what are you going to gain why not say the truth and leave the rest to God because posterity will judge him you know in what he's and the other ones that have spoken, >> you know, like you rightly said, was just saying things that the king wants to hear.
>> You understand?
>> So if >> don't listen to what people are saying out there, those are people no matter what you do, they will never like you.
But don't worry, you are his >> later. They will appreciate you in the future.
>> How?
>> Mhm.
That's the same during time. Have you forgotten? They were all these same people, these same characters. They were everywhere telling people that Buhari was rescuing Nigeria. That if not for BI, Nigeria would have finished collapse.
The the thing that the thing that baffles me is that these people that you call leaders, >> I wonder how they lead their their families at home. I sometimes I think such things >> because if someone like the Bible say the Bible says that if anyone cannot be able to take control of his own household how can he be able to take the care of the church of God and that's exactly what is happening >> you know because I don't believe that these people are capable of even taking care of their homes because like majority of them you don't uh hear about their children. uh just like you uh uh like we be now for instance I there was a broadcast I was uh listening to that uh the children are not even in the involved in the government whatever affairs and and the children are well disciplined >> you know you don't hear anything about family uh disorder and all those kinds of >> no >> but this one this was uh maybe because there are children all abroad. So that's why you may not be very much people also raise their children and yes probably pro probably their children may be most of them may be taking drugs because the money is there for them to be able do whatever they like you know >> that's another >> so I don't know it's a >> we'll keep watching because they are living in their own uh delirium or kind of like their own world. All right, enough far far far off from the reality of millions of people. But somehow somehow they think they in control, right? But let's see how far that goes.
Okay, now let's go to that PDP story.
All right. Uh the uh what do you call them? Jerry Ghana old people, people with gray hairs. So >> and I kind of feel like why would they be fooling themselves like this? What is the end goal? So Wiki now said anybody who or any event center or what do you call them hall public or private in Abuja that should allow these people to use their space will be penalized and then another thing I think they also increased the uh charges for using the public office for campaigns I'm sorry not public office public space for campaigns the permission is 150 million NRA they're is going to impose that. But that's not just for PDP. I think that was for everyone.
But this old man still went on and presented a kind of like convention.
They printed banners. All of them were there, serious media, everybody there.
Eh, and then they like they were there to confirm that Jonathan is going to be their presidential candidate. And I'm like, why is Jonathan not saying anything?
isn't in on this cuz how could old people like mature people, old men and women be doing this, right? It is Nigeria.
Okay, it is Nigeria and I'll tell you why. here where they were trying to approve Jonathan as uh their presidential candidate of PDP >> candidate because it's the final day.
Fortunately for me, this chairman is wise. This chairman is dogged. This chairman has been selected. Therefore, he has briefed us. We're going to have a a presidential candidate.
>> Am I speaking your mind?
>> Shall we have a motion?
>> Oh, I know it.
>> Any motion? We are going to have a presidential candidate and I know that there will be a motion. Can I listen to the motion now and then I'll put it to you.
Power to the people.
>> Power to the people.
>> Power to the youth.
>> Power to the women.
>> Power to our elders.
>> Power to all of us.
>> I am Dr. Tony Azbi, chairman Edo State PDP and chairman of the PDP state chairman's forum.
I greet all of you. I salute your courage. You are so so courageous. In spite of the intimidation, we are here in our numbers. I had the singular honor and privilege to move a motion that on behalf of all the state chairman that conducted free, fair, credible primaries in their various states and having adopted President Good Luck Abele Jonathan as as as so presidential candidate.
I hereby move that this special convention do ratify the motion. Thank you.
>> Any second for the motion?
>> Any second?
>> PDP.
>> I stand here. My name is Senator Mohammed Sanusi Dagash.
I have been with the PDP from inception to date.
I've served the party has been good to Nigeria, has been good to everybody.
Unfortunately, we are now challenged with the same people we have developed over the years and put in critical positions to the extent that today they are anti-PDP.
>> Well, God knows why, but we stand confidently here and we are representing the whole nation in regards to the PPP network nationwide.
I stand to second the motion moved by my brother Dr. Tony Azbe who we've been in the trenches since 1999 to support the motion he has moved in adopting General Goodllock Eel Jonathan as our sole candidate and presidential candidate for the elections of 2027. I so second.
Thank you very much. The chairman will now put the question PDP.
>> Do we clearly understand the motion?
>> Yes.
>> Now, those in favor of the motion that we hereby adopt the president, good luck, Abele Jonathan as our so presidential candidate. SAY I.
Kindly put your hands together for President Good Luck Eel J.
>> With the motion duly moved and seconded and the question put, what they sought to stop has already happened. Yes.
>> And therefore, like we say in law that an injunction cannot lie against the completed act. So they have failed and they will continue to fail. Let me therefore invite right honorable Frederick Agedi to please step forward to receive the certificate of return indicating that this act has been completed. Fred Abedi please.

>> Mr. Development.
>> Yes.
>> Mr. Community leader.
>> Yes.
>> The one who is an African leader per excel.
>> Kindly join me. Put your hands together for this.
pay.
>> There's nothing stopping when the train has left the station. You can only wait at another station. The horse has bolted from the stepple. May I now very respectfully invite to speak candidate because it's the final day.
>> IN THE TIME OF POVERTY LIKE THIS, the economic PRINCIPLE OF YOU IS WHAT EVERYBODY SHOULD APPLY in his own lives.
Eat little save more. You don't know what is happening.
A dollar was just 800 about a couple of months ago. Now a dollar IS OVER,000.
HOW MUCH will it go? Nobody knows.
for old men, men of yesterday, the people that people like us grew up reading about, they were always in the news. To have descended so low to be part of a charade, a mockery e is unimaginable. I don't know how old you are. Here you get But when you hear the name like Jerry Ghana, former minister of information. So you get you can possibly remember that caliber of people. Okay, maybe a liar. It was like the liar mo of their own era. But these were men that people like us were like in politics when you're reading the news, you they always in the news.
Always in the news.
Wabara, the former Senate President and couple of others like that. I can't even remember their names. Men of yesterday, you better eat little and save more so that you don't end up like those old men. So those are the ones who were supposed to be the member of the uh what do you call them? um board of trustees, okay, of PDP that decided that after the Supreme Court ruling, uh they were supposed to be the one in charge. But Wiki of course is not buying that. All right. So, Wiki and his own group have also selected their own presidential candidates and right now Wiki wants every one of them arrested.
But the current chairman of that faction says they are willing and ready for him.
>> Distinguished members of the fourth SS of the very good afternoon to all of you all.
As you are aware, our national executive committee has led today to be the day that we will organize our special national convention for the purpose of ratifying and affirming President Good Luck Jonathan as our presidential candidate for the 2027 general election.
Now we've been informed that the management of the Aclass event center had been intimidated by the minister of the FCT and directed not to allow us to proceed with our plan.
follow.
>> However, we had made in a public location outside here and had drawn the ratification and affirmation of President Good Luck Emil Jonatan as our presidential candidate for 2027.
In other words, the purpose of our convention has already been achieved.
in a convention that was headed by professor Jerry Gana who is the chairman of the special convention planning committee.
Motion had been taken.
Motion had been seconded.
Matter was referred to the delegates and then a tunderous and unanimous years was given thereby affirming president. Good luck Eel Jonathan as a PDP presidential candidate for the 2027 election.
In spite of that, >> we had decided to go to the and so anybody no matter how highly placed, no matter how highly opinionated they may be about themselves and no matter how they think that they can use their positions to toward democracy, we want to tell them that Nigeria is bigger. than anybody and any group of person.
>> We will not fight.
We will not fight. The time of fighting will come when we meet at the polls.
>> We will meet you there. We will fight you there. We will defeat you there and then we will bring you DOWN ON THE GROUND >> because Nigeria is a democratic country.
>> I want to thank our leaders.
I I don't want to sit here and refill all my strategy.
I I am the first speaker among the three of us running.
So they will spy on me.
So you will have a limited answer here today. I know that you can bring me back, but that's part of what I'll do.
of what he wants to say. Natu did all of this to PDPO all and what did he do? He saw a crack and he took advantage of it and then it paid off. What was that crack in 2019?
Roll it back. Roll it back a bit. 2015 after Good Luck Jolantan left office there was a vacuum PDP was in tatas their governors barely even talk to themselves after that election some of them even joined APC straight up but Wik stood his ground he was always in the news tackling Bokari and all of that stuff they're spending the money of River State.
Then I think by then decided to come back to PDP. So when he came back, he was welcomed and he became their presidential candidate in 2019.
So Wiki who was like spending funding the party, keeping it together, some of these guys giving them money, thought he was doing it, preparing himself for 2023.
That was his plan and he didn't hide it.
He believed that whatever PDP became at the time was his own making.
Left for people like Katiku and others, PD will be dead long time ago. you shouldn't be even be hearing about PDB anymore. So he deserved to be rewarded and he rightly so right he was working towards it.
So after 2019 art disappeared again by then to he's already made friends up north and all that down south right he was already kind of like pushing his own influence up to Edo state that was wicked making sure that PDP was ready on the day of their convention his closest pal trusted pal and Bua disappointed him stepped down from the race the race that Wiki actually told him to go into as a decoy so that he could hold together all the delegates that will be needed. So at that uh convention at be congress right he will step down and he will hand over all his delegates to wiki and they were enough to make him presidential candidate but shockingly tambula went on the podium and then announced that he was stepping down but not for wik but for that was the greatest betrayer that wik got so deflated but he didn't stop then he felt like okay if that is it. I think we should make him vice president. He started pushing. That also failed. That was the moment the crack appeared to call because by then Ku already secured the APC ticket and offered Wiki a blank check. What do you want?
Right. This is what he wanted. Okay, you get it. All we want is just to please just ensure that we have 25% in river state 25%.
By the time WK was done, you know the story even call was so shock that not only did he ensure he gets that 30 to 40% of the vote, right? He sabotaged his own party PDP and the candidate of his own party so much that he didn't hide it. I think we did not campaign one day no one minute in river state throughout the 2023 campaign. He never visited there because we can actually bar him, ban him from coming anything PDP was like you don't even dare and he was a PDP governor in reward for all of that to make sure that he finished the job calling minister and here we go look at PDP PDP almighty PDP is what is now more like a charade a mock Sorry for people you waiting for that long, right? Are you still there?
>> My general, I'm still here very much here.
>> Yes, sir. Sorry for that long one. Thank you so much for your patience, Ernie.
Well, thanks so much for that. So, everybody can hear you now.
>> Thank you.
>> Yeah. My name is Baba from I'm calling from Oka Lagos.
>> So, Baba T from Oka.
>> I will remember that. Yeah.
>> So you are live to all the all the commenters. I greet all the callers, all the commenters. Much respect to everybody, you know.
>> And you know, I've been following you right from respect. You're doing a great job. Keep it up.
>> Thanks, papa. You know, we have to continue to, you know, awaken ourselves. What you're doing basically is like you're waking our minds up. You are helping to break the shackles.
You know the shackles which >> a lot of us don't even realize that is you know is been tied into our mindset.
You know through tradition through you know through culture through education through religion.
You know a lot of us we don't realize it and that's what's actually making us not you know unfold our highest potentials our deepest potentials those things aren us keep up the good work and we continue to support you know continue to say the truth you know the fact remains that you know there will be people that will not want to do the right thing but because of that we should not stop doing the right thing we should We should continue to say the truth but also we won't in the way we say the truth because again you know everybody is here for a purpose but it's not everybody that realize their potential know the potential that we have will continue to do good to one another >> I'm telling you the reason so selfish you know what I mean >> the moment you don't feel like uh Because one of the problems we have uh Babati is that and this is general many many of us are kind of guilty of that.
I'm doing my best to make sure that because what I'm doing right now is not because I am a victim of any of this yet. All right. So majority of our people are more like if it's not happening to them maybe it is just been exaggerated. Maybe it's not that bad. Oh okay. Well, we know things are very bad.
But your tone, I don't like your tone. I don't like your language. I don't like the way you are saying it. Do you get what I mean? Now like that biases and all of that is the reason why this evil persist and it is consuming the good, the bad, the ugly, the society we live in.
>> You get what I mean?
>> You know, you're right. And the fact still remains that you know the change that we all desire can only come if we work on ourselves in >> agree and for those of us that don't have or have not realized the need to work on themselves we continue to pray for them continue to urge them or continue to encourage them because it's not everybody that is on the same level of awareness that So I believe strongly So I believe strongly that you know we need to continue to support each other and we need to continue to speak the truth. Keep up the good work and we continue to you know >> much respect.
>> Let me greet everybody from all right you take it easy too. Okay. Have a good one. So that's from Lagos.
I want us to finish this their PDP argument. Okay. Here is their supposed the uh spokesperson for this faction of PDP. Why they have done what they did today? I mean with the Wiki lock them out. He locked them out of the venue they paid for. Okay. And they had to kind of like do it in the parking lot.
Yeah. Of the ven. So they had to kind of do it sto on camera. And then the argument their spokesperson.
>> All right. Good afternoon sir.
>> Good afternoon. I mean um this is indeed a very extraordinary convention totally different from you know um the mold of a convention and we see that you have chosen to you know um um um name good luck Jennison as the sole candidate of your faction of the PDP. What should Nigerians make out of this?
>> Well I I I don't know what you mean by a faction. You've seen that there's a main and when you follow through the root of title you see that this is the main system but again extraordinary times require extraordinary things. So when a problem generates the solution should be sweet generous. So what the essence of today was the fact that the national leadership had already agreed and at the state level they had already made their declaration. So it was needful to do it today. And so when they stopped us and I'm sure you've seen that the entire stretch of the road has been barricaded.
So we are a very peace-loving people. We we had planned to go there and engage with them but the leaders said no why not wait and defeat them at the pools.
The best victory will be at the pools not through fistic and so they persuaded on us and we said okay no problem and what needed to be done has been done which is the motion has been taken and we have announced to the world there's a constructive notice now on and we send information to them that we have produced our presidential candidate and that stays as that at at a time like this. Good luck Jonathan's running is not his ambition. It is a calling from the people for him to run.
Why is it so? The next four years must be four years of healing, four years of restoration, four years of patience, four years of nation building. Who is best suited to do that is a good luck >> in in it. Nigerians are watching you know the ones you know um um um PDP with a a large umbrella to accommodate everybody has now become divided. That is what it is. What should Nigerians make out of this? Um um some people will call it a sham of a convention but of course it is still a convention for your faction. What Nigerians who are watching what should they make out of this?
>> No if you say a sham then the question will be is Nigeria a sham because Niger we are reacting to an action. So you cannot describe the reaction without talking about the action. Is this what a democracy should be that people cannot have the right to freely associate?
People cannot have the right to meet. I mean assuming not considered that we were not even a political party. We're just a gathering of different people. We have the right to meet. Unregistered political associations can meet. I mean there's a right to lawful assembly and for all intents and purpose this is a lawful assembly and your station covered similar events in similar places. So the question is what made this different? It clearly goes to show that President Good Luck Jonathan is the biggest fear and nightmare of this administration. He's the one who has the key to open the door and send them home. And that is what they are trying and fighting as much as they can to stop. But there's nothing stopping an idea whose time has come.
>> Yeah. So, so, so one of the challenges of political observers with what you have done is the fact that as it stands now even up to last night when I was googling on the Ink uh portal um INC actually despite you know what has come out from the judgment of the Supreme Court which has been interpreted by you know both factions differently right your faction and the Wikiped faction but the name of the of of the recognized chairman is Abdul Raman I mean are you concerned % that all of this might be an effort in futility regardless of you know how much you're trying to tout uh good luck Jonathan to run >> now so whether it's an effort in futility should be our problem it shouldn't be their problem right and so for for the record if you go to that portal who is the financial secretary the financial secretary is kur Daniel is he their financial secretary he's the deputy national chairman here so ink is not infallible when you go there the treasurer on record is yay is yari with them no so ink is not infallible and the courts have severally said they are not.
So, so the question is let's go to the end and we'll see who is the winner and who will laugh the last.
>> Are you concerned also that good luck Jonathan is not here in person? Um I mean you've said that the certificate of return uh which you've showcased is going to be delivered to him. How is good luck Jonathan taking all of this? I mean according to you Nigerians are making the call uh to have him. How is the the former president himself taking this call you know by the PDP by your faction of the PDP and Nigerians as you say uh for him to run? Well, that's a question he alone would answer. But the question I'll ask you is with the kind of security you found at that place and stampede, if you a former president, would you be there? I mean, it could have been it could it can be a ploy to embarrass him. And so his absence today is clearly linked to the security situation that has happened. And so whether he will the next steps for him is what he will determine. And this has gone on for a while. Forms were purchased, forms have been filled, forms have been returned, screening was wiped, and today was the affirmation. And so what President Jonathan does next is President Jonathan's decision. And when you look at that's the quality of a man that we need at this moment. A man who is not hungry for power. A man who is not willing to kill for power. A man who is not willing to destroy society for power.
News roll up menu here. You get if they purchased forms for Jonathan and the forms were filled meaning he signed it, could they have gone as far as forging his signature? Because Jonathan is not sick. He's not dead. He's alive and he's never said anything about it at all. Not even the mention. Not even even the media themselves have not even gone to meet with him since all this whole thing started. So we can declare them criminals that anyone that they are only using Jonathan's name to sell forms. So those who believes that their faction is right. So anyway in the nutshell sh PDP will never be part of those to confront the Numbu.
You know what I mean? they won't be able to compete with Kolu in 2027. So cross PDP.
So you still have the ADC and then the NDC. All right. So today in Abuja, the NDC also organized their own uh affirmation convention where Peter Obi was expected uh to be declared their own presidential candidates. So that the obedient including this obedient sleeper cells and including those who are not publicly identified I mean who have not publicly identified as obedient. So they believe that with this now this is like going to be a wakeup call for all of them and from tomorrow right you may have to begin to feel a different trend.
So today in Abuja Petanso Herak Dixon and a couple of them right assembled to affirm BW as their presidential candidate. Let's start from uh what do you call it? Let's started from their arrival. That's uh to the venue.
So P is around you guys only that can bring me outside camera >> only that can bring him out every one of us.
>> You guys know that when it's PO so you know >> Nigeria will be okay. So straight off from a lot of Okay, let's wait.
>> Okay, ladies and gentlemen, the queue is coming.
Our next Brother, >> please can we settle down?
>> We welcome Our presidential aspirant is exciting please entry in this senator on council.
Our presidential aspirant Mr. Visa is exchanging pleasantries with Senator Le Senator Syri.
>> Please we follow the media to Please go home in an orderly manner.
exchanging pleasant dreams with the national leader, Senator Syria Dixon.
Nigeria.
Anyway, so that was the start.
Then the event itself where Victor moved the motion to adopt the uh Peter candidacy but they didn't announce figures you know what I mean like I was expecting them to say they have 9 million or 8 million or 40 million like you know because we saw the turnout at their primaries was quite massive all right but they didn't release actual figure I'm going to take through that long exercise including when they presented him their flag, okay, as their official presidential candidate. So, right now you have uh Donad Duke for PRP.
You have Adayo for SDP.
You have Aiku for ADC.
You also have Dabika Chiku for ADC. And there's another one still yet to be announced by Nafi Balas Group also for ADC, but we are yet to know that one. So anyway, here ADC. Then you have Ku Tinumbu for APC.
Um, do you have Jonathan or PDP?
We've cancelled PDP anyway, right? Not well, we still have to kind of list it.
Okay, I might list uh them as parts, right? So then you have um this togo I don't know maybe not to maybe forgo which is the candidate of the weakest camp, we group for PDP as well. So right now you have OB or NDC AAC.
You have your presidential candidates.
You now have all the list of parties that are going to help validate the charade that Tinumbu is going to conduct in 2027. You get what I mean?
And like with all this stuff invested, it will be so hard, right, to now say, "Oh, you've been rigged out by just saying it." You know what I mean? Like, "Oh, you've been rigged out." They will say, "Well, it's because you lost."
That's what is called a validation of the process except if it's actually going to be the other way around. Okay, let's go watch that. the entire process of uh presenting PBI as the official presidential candidate of the NDC. It's a long watch.
>> I senator Dr. Victor OFR representing Anra Central District with every amount of humility and the hope for a new Nigeria that will come through his excellency Mr. Pito's presidency.

So today it has uh started and yeah they didn't wait.
I want to say big thank you for the people for coming out immensively to participate in this primary election.
>> This is a transparent indication that this is a true democracy. And if we keep this zeal, I believe this we are going to have the vote or the joy that we desire to have in this nation.
>> We are tired of stories.
>> What we have seen shows that we are tired of stories.
>> We beg and all those who have losers to embrace peace.
>> Because at this time people have decided this not time for personal adisement. This not time for it. This time You're going to see a lot of videos like that in the coming days.
You are going to see the obedience again. And I don't know if so many of you are really ready for them. You know what I mean? They've not been away, but a lot of them have kind of like mellowed until the moments like this. And with what we saw during their primaries, I'm going to say people should braise up for what is uh coming in the coming days. in Abia state your own governor who participated in the Labour party primary uh governorship primary election that is Alexoti shared a video where he was like we are not here to be counting one 10 100 200 1,000 and stuff like that that they are different talking about Labor party in Abia states here 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 32 31 323 24 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 2 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 52 53 54 55 667 68 69 70 71 423 74 25 76 778 79 801 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 82 23 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 >> You can see this is a party that is well organized in counting the votes when we saw a disparity we raised objection here. So we don't want a situation where people who don't know mathematics will come and count number one, number 20, 100, 1,000. No, it doesn't work here. So I want to thank all our people for their patience. Thank you. This is just the beginning of the journey. We move from here to Omaha and that is still the beginning of the journey.
I don't read social media anymore.
They abuse hell out of me.
If I read it, I get high blood pressure.
I get angry.
I don't read it.
So, which is a lie.
They all read social media.
If the governor of Abia states is aware that the trending shame of these political parties on social media is that suddenly adults became illiterates who are unable to count correctly anymore.
That means they are all using social media. They are all here. They are all I mean they everywhere.
>> Hello.
>> Hello there.
>> Well done.
>> Yes sir.
How are you doing sir?
The reason why I called I want to have a legal discussions.
I want you to I want to have have an interaction with you on this little subject because according to the way I saw when I see all these governors went to meetu the way they are if you see the what I'm trying to say is that if you see the body language of Nigerian politicians they are showing Nigerian people that we've conquered you.
>> There's nothing you can there's nothing you can do.
And then it's not that they are saying it alone. They put it into practice.
Nigerian people is being conquered and Nigerian land is being conquered by by our own people.
What is the solutions?
Because the the argument they always bring to us is that we don't bring solutions. But I have solutions for Nigerian people. Please everybody everybody everyone that listen to this word I'm going to say tonight don't listen to my bad English but please go and think about it >> okay >> properly.
There are two solutions to Nigerian problem and that I mean there are one solutions to Nigerian problem and that solution is revolution and and that solution is revolutions.
>> Don't get me wrong. Don't get me wrong.
I'm not talking about re revolution the way is portraying it.
>> Okay. There are points I believe is I believe in revolutions that that we p sorry how do I say it I believe in revolution that we have a point that we wanted to hammer and there are two points there are two points on the ground that Nigerian people if they wanted to have a real new Nigeria they want to hijack at the want to take their country back and they want to push all these politicians out of all these political matters out of political space of Nigeria. One number one is security for domicary account.
>> Okay, >> those two policy those two policies is not part of Nigerian constitutions. It's an arrangement putting down since the time since 1989 when during the time of when we come to democracy in 1989 this an arrangement that you know put sorry what they call him put down it's not part of the constitutions let me elaborate a bit Nigeria young people 20 years 25 years 17 years 13 years please continue listen to this if you want your country back. If you want to have a very profit pro profitable country for yourself, security for arrangement is just a policy. It's not part of the it's not part of the >> h it's not part of the constitutions.
Now, please how much is the salary of a governor? Please can you answer me? How much is the salary of a governor in Nigeria?
>> Officially, >> officially salary, please. Uh the salary of a governor is 1.5 million. I think >> the salary of the salary of a governor in Nigeria is 648,000.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Their salary is 648,000 naira.
>> Okay.
>> 648,000 naira 859. That is what is under the con constitutions under the RAM revenue revenue mobilizations or whatever whatever. So their salary let's put it as 7 700,000 naira per month >> okay >> in a in a year in a year the salary of a governor is around 7 7 million 7.7 million or 8 million naira per year >> you understand in four years in four years salary of a governor suppose is going to be around 31 or 32 million naira my please according to all the report according according to the all The report we are getting how much that how much is a how much PDP sorry the APC sell governor governor governor form tips >> how much they sell governor for Nigeria >> 100 million so governor rather sorry governor I think that one is >> yes >> 70 million or so cuz I know that senators were like 50 million or there about >> thank you thank you very much you want you wanted to give job Somebody wanted to apply apply for a job. The salary for that job for a for all four years contract is 32 million naira. Now he's getting a form.
>> That's the basic salary. You know that one is just like what you get paid. But there are other things that come you should be far clever than this. You understand? Let me tell you.
>> I'm not I'm not trying to kind of it.
I'm just pointing out like >> this is not the only reason why they want to be governor. Okay. I know you want to talk about security.
>> Yeah. You know >> that's why I'm saying to you.
>> Okay.
>> That security that security that's what I'm saying. That's what I was talking about going but I just wanted to point out that thank you very >> yeah the one you are using right I just wanted to point out that the one you are using. Okay. If we have to go deeper that is just on the surface >> because at the end of the day governor goes home with over 100 million naira based on from that same >> basic salary.
>> All right without security vote at all.
Each governor in Nigeria minimum goes with over 100 million >> or then security vote. Do you know my do you know that all these governors all these governors they took many of them took minimum of 600 million naira to 1.5 billion naira every month as a security security for >> of course >> people should understand what they call security for in Nigeria it's a fraud because it's an unodited money if you if I'm a governor if you if if you remove me tomorrow all the majority vote I'm going to I took you cannot you cannot have I spend it and that one is really cool the money that the president the governor is taking as a security is is even a chicken change from the one the president president is taking president is taking president in a month is taking more than 10 is taking more than 10 billion naira as a security for in a month you understand Maybe because I actually have an idea of what they paid because they they exposed one that Jonathan was being paid. Okay. It was in dollars.
>> Hang on. Hang on, sir. Hang on. So, it was during the time that they were exposing Dauuki.
>> So, they said the money Duki purportedly spent. All right. They were that was not arms money because there is no way military money or budget will end up in NSA's accounts. But that was just a piece of propaganda. They said the money that Daui was sharing here and there then was actually the collection the the you know pile of Jonathan's security votes in dollars.
>> So he was being paid.
>> Yeah. It was being paid every month then as president $1.5 million >> for security but he didn't touch the money but the money was by then according to what was out then no >> right it was straight >> into an account that he allow in a a central bank at the central bank allowed the NSA to administer that is why Jonathan's name was never mentioned in that Dauuki gates simply because never came to him he just gave directives.
>> Give this one that money, give that one that money. And I think that's what the state governors are also doing with the security votes.
>> And that's why they can't not the end of it. And that's not the end of it, >> right?
>> All the people that hold the all the people that hold that hold legislative post in Nigeria, whether it's senator, rep, state assembly, h the councelor at the local government, all of all of them take what they call constituencies allowances. Y >> now my go is 1999 for God's sake I want Nigerian people to start thinking from this level people should stop waiting for their OWN TIME BECAUSE EVERY NIGERIANS ARE corrupt people are waiting for their own time it's going to be my own time one day we I don't want this arrangement arrangement to go because it's going to be my time one day to rape Nigerian people this is what we are doing so all the legis all conquency allowances and how how will they solve this problem?
Nigerian people will need to be on the road. We need to be on the road to demand that immediate senses of all >> the idea of being on the road is what some of the viewers are if you are reading the comment right some of them are asking that what kind of revolution >> are you being that you should be specific.
Okay. But maybe they missed it. And what I picked from what you said was that uh a revolution that is pretty much like been pointed this is what we are fighting for.
>> You get what I mean? So why exactly would you call that re is that a revolution to call an end to this system and a call for a new one because there must be a plan for a replacement. There shouldn't be vacuum, right?
>> No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You got me wrong.
kick all of them out and wipe out the entire establishment.
>> How will you how will you how will you kick them out? How how >> when people are tired now like the same way you said they should eat the road they can ask them that they should all of them should resign that kind of revolution now.
>> No no way no way. The only way the only way the only way you can re you can you can reote against them and the rest of the world can support you is by is by take dealing with the policy that is punishing you. Is that part of the constitution you understand? You see constitution sir hang on this is interesting by the way right. Uh hang on. So dealing with uh the policies is still very much like asking them >> okay to begin to cut themselves to size or sizes which is still very much what they have to do.
>> Not what we want.
>> No.
>> Okay.
>> No no no wait. If you listen to the governor, if if you listen to the governor of state >> when he was with the man made of one thing when they wanted when they brought the policy of h removal of >> subsidy >> oil subsidy. He said we expect Nigeria to rise up. We scared. But Nigerians are and that is why you see a bad government is even do those citizens are more dangerous than the bad government. That is the truth. Now if you're talking about domicary accounts, look at domicary accounts. Let's talk about that one quickly BEFORE I GO. DOICARY ACCOUNTS.
Do you see any country in the world that say that bring the arrangement you can now come and save your money in foreign currency in a certain country?
>> No.
>> This is fraud. This is domination.
Listen, total domination of people we come and do. There are something you can do. For example, for example, you talking about exchange rate. You understand these people destroy everything. When came in everything, >> I never thought of that. what you just said right now. I never thought of that.
Like >> you don't have the UK bank saying you have to open a doicilary account in naira or open a doicilary account >> in dollars.
>> There's nothing like that here like that.
>> You have accounts then you have doicilary accounts.
>> Do you know why they do it that way? Do you know why they do it that way? can trade.
Do you know why? DO YOU KNOW WHY THEY DO IT?
>> TELL US.
>> BECAUSE ALL THESE PEOPLE that all these people that call themselves is excellencies excellency or whatever they listen.
For example, look at the look at the look at the devaluations of NA since 2023 when came. Mhm.
>> Let's put Dangote as an example. If Dangote save all his money in life, he saved it in error life would have be cut into time. Now, do you think people like people like money lost money in all of these policies? He still lost money. But you are right like no >> teacher everybody people that that doesn't have the capacity to save their money in foreign currency you understand how many people in Nigeria what percentage of the people in Nigeria that have the capacity to save their money in foreign currency >> not many >> now all this all the come back from this of comes to the almost 90 95% strength of Nigerian people >> nobody to rescue them and nobody talk about it >> about THE TIME WE START thinking Nigeria >> deep done well tonight sir thank you so much for that from that perspective. You joined it. Okay. You have a good evening, sir.
>> That's that's quite interesting.
There are so many ways that Nigeria Nigerians have been so sabotaged or we called it the system. You know, it's working. If it's working, why change it? It's not working. People are just being made to get used to it in a way that it just becomes our reality in every face effect.
state of life. I be that's mental. Anyway, I actually had more to share with us uh this evening.
Okay. Some angry uh youth who decided to call out Kolu as well as a government you know a failure in this kind of style. I like it.
>> See your B here.
>> They don't start campaign for you now. I be bored with this four years.
>> So I beg we not go through all of these things for this 3 years inside four years.
>> God forbid not IF I TO BE PRESIDENT IF YOU DON'T YOU COME down I think that is the best option.
>> So I beg enough is enough every single life of a Nigerian matter. So we bring to the public now the awareness of the fact say first of all we get children and teachers inside bush. Now the rad movement you say with the university school we clean school it is of no use of of no use they clean all of this school we renovate all of this school and the children kidnap them and now they don't kill teachers you get so currently what is the federal government doing since you are in charge and you promised us 3 years ago that you going to sort out security challenge today yesterday you celebrated 3 years in government and then we have teachers who are dying inside the bush you get so now what will they demand now the immediate release of these children we We are not going to perform for these children. We not going to do your work for you. You are the federal government. You assume power. You took it. You ran with it. And it's expected of you to of course treat the security issues. Now state carry us kidnap us. We announcement now.
SO WE ARE WELL AWARE THAT YOU KNOW THAT this were kidnapped. So we be something now.
There was an AI video. You said it was him. Till today the spokesman has not deleted that tweet which simply means that you have your eyes on him. You also know he to the people you know say kidnapping but you know say the kidnapping day around >> and you are aware but you decide to do nothing.
You don't want to fight anybody but please they beg you as government do your work.
>> Yes sir.

>> I beg. Until they kill everybody.
>> You you you're not going to gain anything if everybody die.
>> So tomorrow night now you will come up with several promises and there for campaign. However we they go through all of these things internally THAT YOU ARE AWARE OF. See your billboard here. They don't start campaign for you now. You'll be bought with this.
>> So I beg we not go through all of these things for this three years.
God >> not BY FORCE TO BE PRESIDENT. IF YOU DON'T you come down.
>> I think that is the best option.
>> So I beg enough is enough.
>> Go back to your very tired and we cannot take all of this anymore.
>> We've had enough.
>> We've had enough. I beg. We are saying no to bad government.
>> It is already in OA. Who knows if it will be on those state next suffering.
>> I be in this day and time. I do have a they are Rattels by the way. They are they are Rattel uh you know movement.
Hello.
Hello my uh this is uh what exactly why I called in but uh coincidentally you you turned them on you know you turn you turn their video on you know >> actually wanted to talk about them >> I wanted to talk I wanted I wanted to talk about this rat stuff >> okay please >> and connection with your kidnapping >> you know yesterday you put up I think yesterday or day you did a video about the two when the woman was that first woman I think the principal she was also she started he made a video and she was begging again for >> that was yesterday >> so that they can just negotiate with those people that was yesterday right and um you said something that the governor of your state have not even said what the negotiation of these people what they talking Mhm.
>> Yet.
So since that guy had not said anything about those people for me, you remember the first time that thing happened, I I called in. I told you that uh that village I believe that village is uh more of Christians.
>> It's a Baptist church >> and those people. Mhm.
>> Thank you. And those people have sent their message. That's why they beheaded that man like that.
>> Mhm.
>> They sent a message and since they've not said anything that they want >> so they are there for this is isization agenda.
This is taking over the same >> and since the governor have not said anything and I I don't think they are talking with them. I mean we understand now from what she said right we understand now that there is an effort to actually make contact and rescue them which according to that >> is a using the force to rescue them will lead to them being killed >> so that's you get what I mean now like they actually found them >> those people are they are not regular kidnapping and taking ransom people this That's why you see how many days now they've not said anything they want.
Like those other people that used to say 6 billion 1.2 billion if you watch the date now it's almost 2 weeks now they've not said anything.
>> Two weeks today 14 days today.
>> Yeah. So the kind of treatment they giving those children you will know you will see where they are going. These are the real people.
These are the real people. So why when why I said Ratel I want people that are fans to very dark man and all his people they should step away from that place but I saw him saying he want to go he want to do like go fund me since the government don't want to pay so why are you doing what are you doing goof fun me when these people have not said anything >> oh I also saw a video where I think that was this afternoon >> where uh this singer Bona Boy >> was pledging to donate 200 million naira. They was going to send it to him.
>> That's what these people they don't know what others and I'm like okay they misleading people they putting those people life in danger. The if you read from prosecution sense you will see that these people now are not regular fani that kidnap and collect money. Hm.
>> These are the ones that are directly chasing the Christians.
>> The jazz >> they call this is the direct one.
>> Yeah.
>> So these are here is what we know. I'll share this too. Okay. from all this information flying about all because of this um or your kidnapping is that >> from the um eyewitnesses they said a week before the abduction >> they saw >> three fani because they suspected them to be fan right strangely visited the school >> that it was so obvious they visited the school they walked around and all that they didn't have any cows they didn't have anything >> then on the day a week later on the day of this abduction, right? These guys came >> on uh six bikes, 12 of them.
>> All right. And started shooting everyone and all that.
>> So when they wanted to take the children away, they used the principal's uh car, that woman, that lady's car, >> right? And they pick the rest of them on the bikes >> living uh at the school.
So but here is something now the jazz the realam one the swab ISIS right who are now kind of like laying claim that they are the ones who are holding them.
So pointly for those who have been the victims of this fani terrorism and the boaram terrorism right kidnapped they said inside those forest in Nigeria >> when you are kidnapped >> you are also at the risk of being kidnapped again by another group that will attack your own group the group that kidnapped you right and they used to they used to do handover >> they know there's where they have to transfer the victims to another want convert either you convert or die.
These are the real people when you have problem with buy or not.
>> Sorry, something is wrong with this.
Are you hearing me now? Yes, we can hear you now. Are you somewhere that when they have >> Okay, go on.
>> When they have problem when they have problem with or something like this, they can't just jump into s such a high classified security um problem like this.
Go fund me. Go fun me on how which amount are you looking for? Did they tell you they need money? An issue of this security problem in Nigeria is individual cannot solve it if the army will solve it. But now I mean they are compromised. They now telling us that we should not call them bandits. We should not call them terrorists. We should call them ordinary criminals.
>> Understand? So I want to I want to this is just let me advise them. They should not go in there. This is not crowd chasing. This is not bolas selling. This is not um the fake m fake claim h what they call it. So I don't know why they are going for gofund me if they don't have team party they don't they supposed to pity those children there this this I what I want to say so but the last one the man that just called now talk about h Nigerian they should go revolution they should do this call about money like you said no Nigerian president no Nigerian governor will go to prison because of the money he embezzled >> the only revolution Nigeria can do now the only revolution that can take place in Nigeria. Either they the whole Nigeria sit at home what Indian did to England or they by call this election nobody will go out but before it cannot work because people are hungry then based on coming out on the street it will not work in Nigeria because you can see on Facebook Muslim fighting Christian fighting Muslim I fighting Euroba Euroba fighting EU I will say this even in in Muslim inside them all is fighting each other hungry people the people that that are in problem fighting each other nobody try to say okay let's come together look at just this collation they did last time they scattered again into pieces now is going straight because how can all these good good people all these faces will start on the ballot people will vote for them so has won when he read the election nobody nobody's going to blame him nobody there no clue to make him understand they should have come together they wanted to rescue Nigeria, they could have come together and chase one person. But now you see, you see, even they still doing it. Look at blocking blocking PDP taking all that doing anyhow because they know where they are going. They already conquer the people. Either either either people sit at home by call this election or tsunami. I keep on saying it. There's water everywhere in Nigeria. Let it swallow everybody. There's fire in court. Let it burn everybody down. There is inu let come there so the rem >> you thank you too you have a very good evening okay I mean everybody is kind of like people are worked up in the way that preferring a clear solution seems to be an extra work kind of yeah we're going to continue soon uh thank you very much E8 uh too my guy uh so yeah today we honor the lives lost and the sacrifices made during the Bafraan struggle. Their courage will never be forgotten. All a Bafra bless you. So it is another remembrance.
I mean it is another May 30th remembrance day for the Bafraan fallen heroes. So yesterday I was going to tell us about the uh programs they have for it. The usual annual program that is called the remembrance of the fallen heroes. It took place in London today around the um you know the parliamentary building in London organized by the IPOB and members of the Bafan community in the UK.
Merci.
>> Massi Daniel.
>> Mercy Christine killed July 20th October 2022. End of Z protest.
>> We remember Mrs. Alisa.
>> We remember >> she died in DS SS custody in 2025.
Mazi Ojuku Dada >> was kidnapped by the GSS on the 1 of September 202 and many more whose names are not in the list including members of the movement for the actualization of the sovereign state of the Africa.
Masso remember >> who were massacred in cold blood by the Bakan court between 1999 in 2010. We remember. So we pray that the innocent souls of our late comrades whose lives, dreams, and aspirations were cut short and their souls continue to yearn for freedom never truly rest as their spirits join us in the fight for the restoration of the earth for until our freedom is achieved.
We'll light a candle raised in the face next.
May their courage be our inspiration and strength.
>> And the concluding prayer.
>> So that was in London uh this uh afternoon. I have a caller on the line.
I don't know if I see have them. Are you still there?
>> My go baba. How you doing baba?
>> Brilliant. Oh, thank you so much for your patience. Right. So yeah, everybody can hear you right now. How you doing, >> brother? I'm okay on yourself?
>> Very well. Oh, I can't really complain.
Thanks for asking.
>> Yeah, quick one. uh concerning the kidnapping in >> m >> someone one of my friend just share couple of videos and pictures with me this evening brother I can't watch that video >> papa if you see how they are treating those kid in the post I nearly cry it was the one I saw this little boy is a little kid it's going to around age of two or 3 years old.
>> They tie this little boy. They tie >> and you verify they are there. I mean it was them.
>> Yes. I had those couple of picture. I can't even watch them videos >> because something was going on I think three or four days ago where uh you know an actress right shared this image of uh children right who were being like abused. They were wearing this uh blue uniform or thereabouts, right? And they had all their back with all these >> all this uh you know marks and all that this stretch mark and all that, right?
>> Uhhuh. Uhhuh.
>> So is that the same one?
>> No. This one is different like this.
Yeah. This little boy don't have nothing on.
>> Oh dear. And they tie his leg towards his back, including his hand.
And man, brother, this is really heartbroken for real.
Things have to be done concerning this.
My heart is broken. I can't even watch this all the way to the end.
>> No, >> I'm serious about this. We need to do something about this situation. Brother, every one of us listen to this video watching this video. We have kids at home. We have children at home.
I can't I can't finishing watching that video. Brother, >> it doesn't seem like Tinabu is moved.
Look at people around him and all of that stuff. And then despite all this kind of pressure cuz I've seen people organize different protest, people have spoken online and the rest of that uh they don't seem moved.
That is where it is scary. That is where it is scary because my family, my little boy is still back home with my wife back home in Nigeria and they are there in open state.
You know it is scary when I saw that video.
For real. I'm scared.
For real. I am scared.
>> And you are not alone. I promise you.
>> I am. I know. There are so many people in your own shoes right now who are just >> even when I'm speaking with you right now I'm shaking while driving I'm shaking >> just to kind of like imagine it >> honestly brother my family is there in state in state and this place is a new site what can we do what can I do >> can I give a very quick uh Security advice for those of us who have families back in Nigeria is something I would do. Okay? And I've seen people who have done that too. Uh it is to try and install uh a 24 hours uh kind of like CCTV camera that is connected to your phone.
>> Now that's a very that's the first move.
Okay. to give yourself a peace of mind kind of.
>> But we all know that you can't attach cameras on your loved ones when they have to move about everywhere. So it's crazy, >> right?
>> And I don't know why those who are like the politicians are not feeling or people are not making them feel the way they are feeling that the politicians will get to feel like this is about to kind of like get out of handle. They don't seem so.
>> Brother, it's scary man. I'm shaking it.
I'm scared.
I'm scared.
>> People were lamenting online that uh why should the theas still be held and these guys dress glamorously and all of that in the face of all of somewhere against somewhere in support but >> totally against that [ __ ] brother.
>> Let me show you something. Let me show you something just before we go to right now. This was that it's been almost a year now since the Aujal uh passed. Okay. And the purpose of OJA is for the uh successful age groups in the Jabu land. All right. To come and pay homage to the king on the second or third day of uh Elia. Right?
So that's the purpose. That's the cultural traditional purpose of ojoba.
But there is no aujal because the governor of state have his own candidates. The aphobaj have their own candidates >> and because of this disagreement there is no au with what is currently happening. And if these people are actually reading the room, what stops them from postponing this particular one? Excusing the fact that oh, >> you get what I mean? Like we are yet to have an Auja. So we would uh be postponing the event this year and we plan to have a very great one next year with our new king dlah blah also for the sake of what do you know I was discussing that with somebody today and you know what they told me that person said you know there's this kind of like a cobra effect right where >> uh is a story about when the Indians wanted to uh probably stop the scourge of cobra snakes right? Killing people in India. So they now decided to say everybody will catch a cobra right will be paid £1. Okay. So before you know it all the snakes all these snakes in in India they all dead because people capture them themselves not governments.
Then there was no snake to c catch again. Then suddenly people started actually rearing breeding snakes to collect money. Then there was too many too many snakes. the government couldn't pay for them.
>> Now they have no use for those snakes anymore. So they just release them again to the wheel to the wild to everywhere back to the same problem. So the corra effect in this sense is that it could be for a good one, right?
>> If a very significant occasion like annual cultural occasion like Oji is post or journed like cancelled >> using the excuse of there is no oba for now. Okay. And then the situation in the country the all of this thing and the children.
>> Do you know that so many other organizations will begin to cancel their own events?
>> Exactly.
>> Solidarity. It will just be like that domino effect that before you know it that can trigger a panic within the government cycle that we need to do something now because then just be about them doing political stuff. Before you know it political parties will probably say we are canceling our own campaign too.
and that can pressure people. But that didn't happen. Let me show you the OJ.
Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Good.
Oh yeah.
On this day.
Come on. Go back. Go back.
>> Look at that.
No, >> some said it's because of the lack of emotional intelligence. And I'm like, no, it's because of uh the rotting system that keep rewarding bad behavior.
That is why this is happening >> and they all have people that supports them, you know, they will defend it.
>> Brother, these people don't care about us. They don't see us as citizen.
>> For real, this don't see us as citizen at all. I'm just I'm just I'm just honest.
>> Welcome. Welcome to the zone.
>> It's crazy, isn't it?
>> The former spokesperson of the Nigerian military, >> right?
>> Right.
>> Has been declared kidnapped himself, his wife and some member of his family while they were traveling. This was a retired spokesperson of the military. Possibly during his time, he was among those who told us that everything was fine and some of us are just exaggerating. Then he had protection. You know, he was in the military.
>> Maybe the protection was no longer there. Take a look at his own car, abandoned car after they took him today.
Okay.
Sit there.
Leather [ __ ] number officer brother. So if you said I mean if you are worried and concerned you have every right to >> trust me.
Why you I just don't know. I don't know where where to go anymore.
Me living here right now living in scared >> for real.
>> So many people are >> for real.
>> Each time I see this type of video on social media >> that's one thing that connect some of us that believe that we have escaped from Nigeria. That is something that keep reminding us that you have not escaped.
Yeah.
That little boy.
That little boy. That little boy. Ah.
I don't know where we are going anymore.
I don't know. I'm really hard work. No.
For real. I don't know. I don't know.
>> We'll see.
>> I don't know. I don't know.
Imagine that feeling of shock calling your loved ones to finish watching that video.
Ah baba that country is something else right now. For real it is something else.
>> That country is something else.
That country is something else. It's something else.
Anyway, >> it is well keep it you know take it easy baba whatever will be just >> make sure they are all very much aware of their surroundings what's going on to do in terms of emergency you get >> you know what I mean >> any party any party that is going to be across the where they are living right if it is not so so important like they can't it is better for them to just send the money rather than for them to say they are traveling we I'm going to want to go and do our want to do wedding my my friend want to do something in why why do you really want to put your life through all of that >> so people need to be security it's unfortunate that this is our reality but I mean little little information like this can save lives >> so you take this you have a good onehaba So this is my own message say but you can't really control what people do while you are busy with your own life in the diaspora. Okay. Uh worrying about what is already kind of like dealing with you or you are dealing with and then just from the blues you are not going to be well you not going to be a tracker. They want to track every member of your family. You have no idea what they are doing. You have no idea where they are and you know what I mean until that phone call that could change everything.
You know that. So little little security info like that can save our lives for now until maybe we finally have those who have the balls to let the people act and defend themselves and get rid of this terrorist before it is too late.
Cuz right now the impression is that uh we are already surrounded.
The only thing we seem to have is just our mouth. We are disarmed.
Those who are meant to protect us are overwhelmed. The police, the army, the rest of them, they are all overwhelmed.
So right now we are just like uh animals waiting to be slaughtered kind of.
So until you have the people who have the balls, who are not going to do all of this because of their political gain or political losses.
Yeah. Those who have the real political will.
Hello.
>> Obafra brother. How you doing?
>> I'm doing great my um how are you? How's the family?
>> Well, I'm very well. Happy anniversary.
Happy remembrance day.
>> Yeah, thank you. Thank you >> very much.
>> Um, I was just having a thought with my mom and she also experienced the Bafra in terms of she was born in the in the in the north in Jos and they had to grab her and the siblings while they were in school in one of those um nun schools, you know, and they they took the last train heading east. This is how she she was able to survive.
>> Oh my.
>> And fast forward to Yes. She's still traumatized till today. So, um, this is like some of the story that >> you know that a lot of people in that zoo aren't aware of or want to even experience because they're far removed.
As long as it's not your people or any of your family members, no one cares, you know. But fast forward to 2026 is the same thing that's repeating right now.
>> Rather than just the Bafra feeling it now, everybody else is feeling it.
>> Everyone, >> I say this to everyone.
Stop playing politics.
Arm your people. Arm yourselves.
That's the only thing. The only life you will save will be your own if you arm yourself.
>> People stop playing politics. APC, DCD, blah blah blah blah blah. These are all politics. These people have an agenda, >> you know, we're here abroad.
Sometimes I can't sleep >> cuz all the stories you're hearing and this and that. Yes, I was a victim. My I had a cousin a few Decembers ago that fan kidnapped and beat her to her skin was purple. had to pay a ransom.
Luckily, she was able to get away.
>> But imagine others that didn't make it.
Those that they even paid a ransom and still were killed.
>> I know.
>> So, people stop playing politics. We Nigeria is not a country. It's freefor-all. Anything goes. Stop playing politics and arm yourself. And stop filming and videoing anything any encounters with fan. No one should say pim just get rid of them.
>> You know enough is enough. They slowly they have infiltrated everywhere. Last week uh in Bafra land in um Omar uma I forgot the the full name of it. The fan killed somebody. This is not the first time of them killing in that village, >> you know, and then they've gotten away with it.
More and more this thing is coming getting closer and closer to my doorsteps and my village. I've been raising alarm but for some strange reason many people are just docile and just don't care or taking it serious >> until Nigeria happens to you that's when they wake up.
>> We can't why can't we not learn from you know from others that's experiencing this and and prepare ourselves.
Euroba land is now feeling the same thing and are weak because of it. It's happening in other places are weak because of it. It's no longer a travel issue. People need to wake up.
Mic saw this years ago, years ago. Look at it. It's all happening exactly the way he said it will be. And yet some people are still not taking it serious.
Well, >> look at the other color that just called right now is, you know, I I understand you. I totally feel how you I I totally understand how you feel. But, bro, try to do the best you can. Arm your people. Teach them how to fire arms.
That's it. Because only life you're going to save will be your own. If you don't fight back, that's the only way.
If you don't speak that same language that's shooting back, that's the only way they'll respect you.
your your food.
>> Well, fighting back in this if we are being if we are all of us are being uh sincere, right?
>> You every time we like a fight back and fight back, we all know what it takes to actually really fight back. Number one, you are not allowed to own automatic rifles as an individual. Then number two, with the level of poverty and all that in the country as we speak, right?
How many individuals can actually really fund this defend yourself? we are talking about. So everything still fall backs on those who have the resources the government >> don't you think >> I mean if we are using reality I mean right now maybe somebody like myself could probably pull up and yeah if I am allegally allowed I could probably procure what I can use to defend myself but we are not many in that kind of space.
>> Yes. But we are dealing with an army of >> murderous terrorist that almost like overwhelmed the existing security >> kind of structure.
>> So people still get up like you know beaten in a way you know.
>> Yeah it's it's really tough my group is really is a tough situation. It really is. But um the the crazy thing about it with this insecurity just getting out of hand, yet you're still having churches, mega churches still opening every day, which makes you wonder.
>> So there's enough money circulating around. People are able to donate for these mega churches to be able to, you know, to still expand. M >> so why can't they use that same type of hustle mentality or or idea to now be able to procure arament you know there's different ways if the people really want to you know this church is supposed to be the leading force of this of arming their people and their own church members are are the ones becoming the victim and getting kidnapped and yet oh yeah let's pray let's pray for their release there's no longer time for praying anymore those that time is gone is gone.
>> Thank you so much, uh, brother. I, uh, do appreciate that, by the way. All right. So, you have a good evening.
Okay.
>> So, that's, uh, um, another contributor who believes that more is needed to be done by the people who are the victims, us, until you become the real victim.
Don't because by the time it gets to your turn there may not be anybody left that want to really speak for you in that sense you know here is another caller another view hello >> how you there >> how's everything all right >> man I didn't think we would get to this level >> whereby My atomic video will be a U-turn but ah it has beat all my estimates all my all my guesses every single thing. I never knew it would degenerate to this level, you know, maybe >> they would have, you know, been able to turn it around, but ah man, I don't know again, you know, it's it's just beyond words that >> now here is a thing right here is >> people say or like tinu supporters are saying there There are some people who are doing this so that Tinumbu will lose election.
There are people who are doing this to make Tinumbu look bad.
Now that constant thing is that there are people there are people. So who are these people? So if Tinubu actually care or those around Tinubu who knows there are some people doing this, if they care about the lives of Nigerians that are, you know, being wasted this way and they have the resources, okay, to grab these people, which one is cheaper to keep burying bodies and then uh sacrificing your soldiers, going after terrorists? that some people untouchable people continue to fund and you know they are doing this to make you look bad or make you fail.
Which one is to allow them to continue or to pick them up?
>> It's not it's a very silly silly way of thinking silly excuse. They're trying to make someone look bad. They're trying to make someone look horrible. But you are dealing with human beings life here. You know this is way more than politics. This is more than this is more than politics. These are people. But because the but if you look at it critically, you now start saying that maybe some Nigerians are more equal than some other people.
>> You know, you now start saying maybe some people are far superior that they you cannot touch them. Maybe some people, you know, they will do what they want to do. they can sponsor this terrorism and they can get away with it.
Maybe that that is what they are trying to tell us that is the outcome. And what does that tell about you as president of the country >> that you can't compromise just what >> you are it means you are compromised because my nobody is there when you know we're not praying all these deals are being made we're not privy to these things the only thing we are privy to is the outcomes and these are the outcomes we are seeing that we unable to deal with a domestic issue but People don't understand the matter of any country that is at war. Nigeria is at war. The only way you know a country is at war.
One of the indicators is people that internally displaced.
>> We have millions that are internally displaced. That is a mark of a country at war. But guess what? We are not doing nothing about it because Nigeria does not act like a country. A country would wake up and fight back. But because it is it doesn't carry the markings of a country, people are getting kidnapped.
Some people are still throwing parties.
People are being being unalived. Some people are doing all kinds of things as if it doesn't concern them. As if there is no correlation or there is no connection. We are acting as if there is no connection. That is what a a that is what happens when it is not a country. a country will be if it if if it it was truly a country >> we would hold every single thing we are doing but because the person that is on the other side is unconcerned or doesn't see the reason why that person's plight should be his plight we were never a country m and if you know it is just a shame if that people are dying every single day people are losing their lives every single day um you see he's compromised is compromised because you cannot have a you can't have sustained terrorism. You can't sustain terrorism if they are not >> you can't it becomes is because they are internal actors that are holding and saying you know what this country is our own we would internal actors now why are they so so untouchable that's my whole point >> that is the point because Dubai >> okay ordinarily let me ask you this one right ordinarily >> yes sir >> you between you and me looking at all of this as normal lay an ordinary person and you have the power of presidency as the president of the country right and this is happening do you think it will be so I mean impossible for you to get those people if indeed some people are sponsoring them answer me >> see the real the real issue is that we think Tenobu is Nigeria's president on paper he he is but in terms of his capacity and to hold Nigeria to control Nigeria, he doesn't have it because if he does if he if he's truly a president that is in charge, this is not the outcome.
This is not >> because inside the military the military leaders don't have respect for him.
>> You get what I mean right now? Because they are supposed to actually be so ashamed to sit with him and say they are briefing them security reports. You know what I mean? Like they should be ashamed because their failure is his failure.
You get what I mean? go.
>> It's not even being ashamed. We all know that the military is compromised, right?
So in in that compromise thing, some people in the military are unwilling to do anything and some people in the military are willing to do something. So we already there's already a domestic problem, you know, internal problem.
See, Michael, your previous caller said, "Oh, people should arm themselves." I I'm I'm not sure of that particular trajectory. But what I think would happen is that there will be there will be that internal combustion because the mystery as it is some people I'm sure are there and say we can't take this anymore and some people are saying you know what this is how it's going to be.
We're going to win over this country.
some people are you know so it is that worrying factor that would produce that revolution you are thinking that we all thinking of because guess what my we just need to make sure it doesn't sustain itself but people are losing their lives every single day and next thing people are still having >> and people are still having their festivals people are still having their festivals nobody cares about anything as if we're not concerned you know people are still going about doing you know see you know it is a shame and the only way I think is going to you know collapse is if there's that internal combustion in the military in leadership that some people said you know what to hell with all this rubbish this thing has to implode because you know all >> like when BDP was about to clock 16 years and it was like man nothing they did at the time ever recon them. So they ended up having to >> themselves and of course >> Michael we have a proof. This proof is clear. It is not a country because it is not act like a country. It is not a country. A country will not act this way sir.
>> Thank you so much for your thank you very much for this. Okay.
