THE ARITHMETIC OF STATE CAPTURE: NIGERIA'S PYRAMID OF PATRONAGE. Nigeria is a nation of immense endowment whose governance has been captured by a narrow cabal of unscrupulous con men disguised as politicians. At their first foray into politics they approach the electorate as supplicants, seeking a mandate held in trust. Once in office, many of them repudiate that trust, as Napoleon and the pigs of Orwell's Animal Farm did when they discarded the agreed social contract once they assumed office. THEIR MODUS OPERANDI: This is how they operate. Suppose ₦100 million arrives each month, enough for ₦1 million for each of 100 people. The official responsible for disbursement is himself one of the hundred, but equal distribution would cost him the deference and forced loyalty that inequality produces, so he: - keeps ₦90 million - gives ₦1 million each to 10 lieutenants, on the condition that they keep the public compliant - has each lieutenant recruit three subordinates at ₦100,000 each, leaving each lieutenant ₦700,000 The result is 41 beneficiaries and one dominant patron with 59 people waiting for usual elction season rice amd noodles as their own share of the largesse. Every tier of this food chain feels prosperous relative to the tier below, so each has a stake in the arrangement while remaining structurally dependent on the apex. Wealth does trickle down, but in doses calibrated to extract loyalty, not to lift living standards. The same logic repeats at the local, state and federal levels, across the legislature and through every ministry, agency and government parastatal headed by a politician. This is not new. Infact it is well described in the following concepts; neopatrimonialism, prebendalism, clientelism, elite capture and rentier politics. They are now moving things to the next phase where they are grooming their children to perpetuate the system they have put in place. If that isn't obvious to Nigerians then there's some serious voodoo with national spread blindfolding us. Poverty drives this system. Material deprivation compels the deference on which the patron's status feeds. The cycle sustains itself, with scarcity producing dependence, dependence producing worship, and worship shielding the extraction. THE SOLUTION: Ending this evil requires a deliberate social awakening. We must reclaim power through the ballot, the most valuable currency in a democracy, and defend our votes lawfully. The man currently at the apex is widely reported to have said that power is not served à la carte but must be grabbed, snatched and run away with. The argument here is that this cuts both ways: we will not be handed power a la carte by Tinubu Wike, Akpabio or Gbajabiamila. We must reclaim it ourselves, through the ballot box by following Bola's advice where necessary! If someone is trying to steal our votes then we must grab it, snatched it and defend it to add our own twist to the president's infamous quote.

In Imo State (Ikeduru/Mbaitoli Federal Constituency), we found 24 polling-unit result sheets photographed between 5:04 and 5:34 a.m. on election day, according to the camera data embedded in the images INEC published on IReV. Voting was scheduled to start at 8:30 a.m. Before a single vote was cast, the result sheets had been written and photographed. The published sheets show no presiding officer's name, signature, stamp, or agent names or signatures. Every photo carries the same profile: iPhone 13, iOS 16.4.1, with the same-looking wooden floor across six wards. These 24 sheets hold 8,081 valid votes. The final margin between the winner and the runner-up was 3,076. Full analysis and all 24 sheets are on our website.

The president of Ghana, @JDMahama, can stand in front of the world & name his village, glorify his parents, & recall where he grew up. He also knows the schools he went to. To a #Nigerian, that must seem strange....

MY VISIT TO DELTA STATE On Thursday, 24th September, I joined our Governorship Candidate in Delta State, Deacon Chris Iyovwaye, other Delta State candidates, our party leaders, and members of our party for the launching of the NDC campaign office in Asaba, Delta State. It was another opportunity to continue to spread our message and commitment to a better Nigeria. We must unite, secure our dear nation, and move it from consumption to production, create jobs, and pull our people out of poverty. I sincerely thank our Governorship Candidate, other leaders, and members of our party in Delta State for their commitment to a better Delta State and Nigeria. I also sincerely thank the good people of Delta State for the wonderful reception and hospitality accorded to us. A New Nigeria is Possible, and Nigeria will be OK. -PO

Wow!!! @PBATMediaCentre @ARISEtv @tvcnewsng @channelstv Are u not impressed? If not for politics Tinubu, Wike, Umahi, etc would be working for HE @PeterObi .
As at when Peter Obi bought his First House in the UK in 1987 my Parents were still Boyfriend and Girlfriend. Jim Ovia hadn't started Zenith Bank yet. Elumelu had just finished NYSC and was a new staff at Union Bank. Otedola had just become a Managing Director for the first time at Impact Press. Dangote was still basically a young trader and hadn't moved into manufacturing yet. Tinubu was still a mere staff at Mobil. Pastor Chris was still a Student Pastor. I could go on and on.. Is this the man you are comparing with the Forger in Aso Rock? If not for Politics who's Wike, Umahi and even Tinubu to Speak when Obi is talking? OBI IS COMING

In 2023, Joshua Okoro campaigned for David Umahi. Eight months after Umahi became minister, Okoro’s company began receiving contracts worth billions from the Ministry of Works violating Nigeria’s procurement law.

See the way he dey admire Obi: “Mr. Obi, how you do am? In 1993, I was asked to remit $460,000 to the U.S. government because of some deals when I no fit talk now. But in 1996 three years later, you bought a £1,000,000 house in the UK with cash? Omo, I respect you, but I no fit talk am publicly.”

On the day I left office, I left more than US$150 million as the dollar component of my investment in Anambra State as governor. I hereby provide documents that can be verified with the various banks. Had it remained untouched, this investment was expected to provide Anambra State with approximately US$10 million in annual income. Even if their assertion were accurate—which it is not—that Anambra owed US$123 million, the government could have used the US$10 million generated annually from my savings to reduce the debt. It has now been 13 years since I left office, which would amount to US$130 million. The debt should have been fully settled by now. Had they retained the funds I left in the bank, including the compound interest on the principal and the additional income, the total would be approximately US$335 million today. If they had chosen to repay the US$92.35 million funding, the entire amount would have been covered, leaving approximately US$242 million to be reinvested. That sum would have generated about US$20 million annually for Anambra State. Let me reiterate that, when I left office, I left Anambra State in a strong financial position—the strongest of any state in Nigeria—and I stand by that position. Through this clarification, I wish to state categorically that I will neither engage nor trade words with anyone regarding my tenure in Anambra State. My focus will now be on issues affecting the suffering Nigerian masses, which is the reason for my presidential ambition. A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

INEC said results would be uploaded with BVAS. In 2023, over 50,000 presidential result sheets appear to have come from private phones. Who uploaded them, and under whose authority? #Mundx #NigeriaDecides2027 #Inec #ElectionTransparency
