The last time I was in Lagos I paid to enter a beach in Lekki. Not a resort. Not a water park. A beach. Sand. Water. A coastline that existed long before any of us were born. Someone bought it. Fenced it. Put a gate on it. Now you pay to touch the ocean. What kind of government sells its people access to nature? Happy Democracy Day. 🇳🇬

Everyday Anthem. I have control only of my actions.

This right here is the future.

A guy in Alberta is selling tractors with zero computers. No software. No sensors. Just a diesel engine you can fix with a wrench. 400 American farmers tried to buy one after a single interview. Sometimes the moat isn't more features. It's less.

Intelligent people struggle with addiction. Their minds need more. They have obsessions nobody around them shares. Philosophy. Astronomy. Dostoevsky. Jazz. Quantum physics. Things they know deeply. Things they've gone so deep into that anything else feel like small talk. And small talk feels like suffocation. So... they drink. Work until 2 am. Doomscroll until they're numb. Because there is a gap. A gap between who you are and the conversations available to you. And it's one of the loneliest places a person can live.

I deeply relate to when Dostoevsky said: "Half of my problems are that I don't speak much, and the other half of them is that when I do speak, the words don't sound like what I wanted to say."

For a society to be great, mediocrity must never be rewarded.

Realizing that you are a child of humanity, and that it is dear to you, is a call to constructive action and to responsibility for the future.

Your creativity is somewhat limited by your environment. The resources at your disposal and the level people around you operate at can greatly influence your decisions

So if I was never forced by my dad to learn piano, I would’ve never known I had a talent for music and this gift would’ve remained dormant?

WHO QUESTIONS ME? A Slave of Gilbert Chagoury Dared to Ask Who I Am. Let Me Answer. Kio Amachree | Stockholm, Sweden A troll — in the digital service of Gilbert Chagoury — slid into my mentions to question my standing to speak on Nigerian affairs. So let me answer. For the record. My grandfather sat at the 1958 Constitutional Conference. My father was Nigeria’s first Solicitor-General and the UN’s first African Under-Secretary-General. I was born in Nigeria, to two Nigerians. In 1982, I served my National Service at the National Assembly — ₦200 a month as a Youth Corper. Proudly. One hundred years. My family gave this nation one hundred years. Now answer me this: Where did Gilbert Chagoury serve his National Service? Where did Bola Tinubu serve his? They did not. Neither of them. This same President holds a Guinea citizenship and an American one. It is all in the court documents. His own lawyer Fashola admitted it live on Channels TV: “I don’t know if they gave him American citizenship there.” The Guinea passport was confirmed before the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal. He told INEC under oath he held no other citizenship. That is perjury. It is in the record. And Chagoury? His Nigerian citizenship was gifted by Sani Abacha — a military dictator with no constitutional right to grant it. He was convicted in Switzerland for laundering Abacha’s stolen billions. Fined $1.8 million in the United States for illegal political donations. Then given Nigeria’s GCON honour. Not accountability. A prize. Yet in 2024, Tinubu handed Chagoury’s company an $11 billion coastal highway contract — no public tender. Then ₦1.1 trillion for Tin Can and Apapa ports. The man lives in Paris, almost certainly pays tax in France, and Abuja keeps giving. I have never received one government contract. Never held one government appointment. Never taken one naira from the Nigerian state beyond my corper allowance. To Tinubu and Chagoury: you are not dealing with a street urchin. You are dealing with the real elite — not the rob-by-day-loot-by-night variety. The kind whose legitimacy was built a century before either of you arrived. The Nigerian people deserve one answer: What does Gilbert Chagoury actually pay Nigeria? Not a national honour. An audit.

“My main target is to remove the entire Abia from the National grid. My Hon. Commissioner for Power is in the Netherlands negotiating for this. Even though it’s a private enterprise, we are ready to support it because it will benefit us all” -Alex Otti

"You grew up hearing tales," and that is precisely the problem. Because you have never stopped to ask yourself WHY you heard those specific tales and WHO made sure you heard those tales. You "grew up hearing" that Abacha supposedly stole $4bn, but there is ACTUAL DOCUMENTED EVIDENCE that his immediate military predecessor made at least $12bn of Nigeria's Gulf War oil windfall disappear into private hands - why didn't you "grow up hearing" that? You "grew up hearing" that Abacha was a "corrupt dictator," but why did you NOT "grow up hearing" that the actual dictator who occupied that seat before him singlehandedly minted at least 3 of the USD billionaires that you worship today, including his wife's tailor that was awarded an oil block and is now Africa's richest woman, or another one that was a taxi driver and now owns a telco and an oil company? Who made sure you didn't hear that, but you heard something about Abacha? You "grew up hearing" that Nigerians suffered economically under Abacha, but you can NEVER prove it with numbers because IT IS NOT TRUE! Nigerians did suffer from fuel shortages and other things that led to the infamous Abacha stove, but numbers cannot lie and the numbers show that inflation in Nigeria under Abacha fell to single digits, the USD exchange rate fell and stabilised remarkably, and Nigeria's foreign reserves grew from $200m to over $9bn - without high oil prices. Since the "Abacha hardship" cannot be proven with numbers - which directly contradict the narrative - someone has made sure that you "grew up hearing tales" and anecdotes in lieu of actual facts, figures and data. And funny enough, even in filling your heads with those anecdotes and stories, the period of 1985-1993, which was actually the most damaging period in Nigeria's entire postwar history, is NEVER mentioned. You hear a lot about Abacha killing people extra judicially, but you NEVER hear that extra judicial killing of private citizens first became institutionalised under Ibrahim Babangida - to the point of sending letter bombs to kill journalists. You NEVER hear that the first time in Nigeria's history when Nigerians began emigrating enmasse was during that period, and that the reason why almost every urban Nigerian family is split across multiple countries and continents is Ibrahim Babangida and his ruinous SAP era. You don't hear about how drug trafficking became so institutionalised under Babangida that people like Bola Tinubu started vying for political office in 1992. You don't hear about how Babangida was instrumental in reducing Nigeria's influence in Africa by cutting funding to African liberation movements, while providing funding and support to his fellow CIA assets like Yoweri Museveni to gain power that they have not relinquished since 1985. You instead "grew up hearing" one specific set of stories to reinforce one specific idea in your mind, so that even when you come across hard numbers and facts that contradict the stories, they have become part of your emotional makeup and are impossible to dislodge. This was EXACTLY how the exact same American information warriors came in 2015 - when Nigeria was enjoying its biggest economic breakout since 1974 and was the 3rd fastest growing economy on the planet - and they started filling your head with stories about how "Jonathan is corrupt and incompetent" and you had never had it that bad before, to the point where you voluntarily went to the polls and removed the guy who took you into the MINT bloc, only to replace him with Muhammadu fucking Buhari. Now here you are 11 years later, and you clearly still don't understand the power of storytelling to mess up your mind and destroy your life. Continue cursing Abacha like Washington wants you to. Shebi his murder brought prosperity to Nigeria and you're better off now? Whenever you wake up will be your morning.
