Last few weeks was kidnapping jamboree for bandits across Nigeria . Similar stories emanated about how security agencies were asked to vacate their posts by order from above only for terror to reign afterwards by the bandits. Amdistall these, no names of the order givers were....

Military intervention but they can't solve this issue except dishing out money to bandits. Brigadier General Uba's case was a shoddy extraction job. You want to pick up a target from the bush in the midst of bandits yet lack aerial bombardment infrastructure.

As a country of interest. And the government has been unable to meet up with the full force they're expected to carry out so they folded and resorted to paying ransom. At least the public outcry would subside, albeit temporarily. I'm still baffled at how they don't want US....

The weekend rescue of some of the victims from eruku, Niger can allude to this, our government is negotiating with bandits. Thus further enriching them to acquire more arsenal for subsequent operations. The bandits have been applying pressure ever since Trump cited Nigeria.....

Bandits call military boss that they're coming to strike, then the boss retreats his boys then terror unleashed. Gumi said all his visits to the bandits den was accompanied by both police and government officials. IGP says they're always willing to negotiate with bandits.....

Mentioned, but that pattern is too consistent to be ignored. Even the governors of kebbi and Niger echoed similar sentiments. One thing Nigeria military lack is combat skills, along with covert intelligence. Both the bandits and the security agencies are in cahoots......

Technically bafana are yet to score any goal. We are generous enough to give them a goal before we bury them. #WCQUALIFIERS

Social media is a real leveller, I see married people who never shared their wedding pictures for years out here comparing Davido and Eazy's wedding. Is there now a standard to be towed.What happened to personal choices. Why not just mind your business and wish all parties well.

One day we will also talk about how #verydarkblackman generously rewards all his whistleblowers. This also displays some level of compromise and integrity in all his exposes. That's why people keep snitching on each other. Stomach infrastructure whistleblowing.

One day dumb rats will understand #Verydarkblackman is a devil and a problem to all national discourse on pressing issues. He manipulates the public and peddle falsehoods diverting attention from the subject matters. I pity his rats.

Two prominent Nigerians died on Sunday 13th July 2025, but it's only one that sycophants are trying so hard to paint as the best man ever liveth while we all know who was evil among them. That was why Buhari's tenure was marred with corruption, human rights abuses, tribalism.

In the UK, you'll have to pay NHS £1035 per year, visa fees. 20% tax, if you are driving road tax, MOT, then house rent, council tax. All aforementioned doesn't apply to an average Brit who's living in a supported housing with other benefits. #UKImmigration

Immigrants are funding the majority of the Brits lifestyle especially all those not working for one reason or the other. The government generates £billions annually and they think stiffer regulations are the solution.

The truth about this VDM arrest is that he's been saying he's got insiders in efcc, always daring them to come arrest him, he knows they're planning to arrest him and so on.They used GTB as a decoy so people would be confused as they are now.Gtb has nothing to do with his arrest

I invite you over to my house for an 8pm dinner, you arrive at 6pm and decided to jump the fence whereby you tripped,fell off and died. Am I supposed to be liable for your death? Only in Nigeria. Draconic laws/punishment for people with good intentions #ibadan stampede

How to strain long term family ties; VDM shares a story Seun Kuti about the Falanas whom we all know have very strong ties with the Kutis, historically. You asked him to publish without reaching out to your family friends first to hear their side. Makon Makon loye nkan.

Now let me tell those who don't know how easy #Bobrisky's case would be, esp calling out James Brown to come confirm if he'd really visited him in prison. Bob would have been transferred prior to James arrival to the prison. Now that's a very credible witness. VDM will learn.

After #Burna won Grammy he cleverly distanced himself from #PDiddy . If you are smart you should know he must have sensed something he wants as uncomfortable with. Diddy himself lamented how burna distanced himself was unbecoming. Use your brain rightly.
