Politics / A Tale Of A County Where Cruelty Rules: Force Of Hunger - Threats Of Jail by tolastikha: 11:56pm On Aug 26
In a small, desolate village, there lived a man named Dagunro, infamous for holding the world's deadliest record for being the most wicked father. His reputation was known far and wide, and whispers of his cruelty sent shivers down the spines of those who dared to speak his name. Dagunro reveled in his role as a tyrant, using hunger as a weapon to prove his dominance over his family.

Each day, Dagunro would return home with his belly full from feasts enjoyed in the company of friends, while his children were left to scrape by on meager rations. When food was available, it was always devoid of the essentials; he would serve them a meager portion of porridge, while he indulged in succulent fish and tender meat. The children learned to resent their father, but fear kept them silent.

His reign of terror didn’t stop at starvation. Dagunro had a cruel law in his household: no child must ever cry, regardless of the punishment inflicted upon them. Whether he wielded a rod, a piece of wood, or even heated objects, his children knew better than to show their pain. They were trapped in a world of torment, where expressing sorrow was punishable by further brutality.

One fateful day, Dagunro's wrath fell upon his youngest son, Itebu. The boy had quietly endured the daily horrors, but that day, Dagunro's fury reached a boiling point. He descended upon Itebu with a horse whip, the air thick with the sound of cracking leather. Itebu, overwhelmed by the pain, couldn’t hold back a desperate yell.

In that moment of weakness, Dagunro's fury ignited like wildfire. In a fit of rage, he swung the whip with lethal precision, silencing Itebu forever. The act was swift and merciless; he beheaded his son, a grotesque display of power that sent a chilling message to the remaining children.

Panic gripped the hearts of Dagunro's other children, who had witnessed the horrific act. Fear of becoming the next victim drove them to flee their home that night, running into the darkness, desperate to escape their father's tyranny. They had seen what happened to those who dared to break his rules, and they knew that survival depended on their escape.

As the village mourned for Itebu and whispered tales of Dagunro's wickedness, the once-mighty father was left alone in his empty home, surrounded by the echoes of his tyranny. In his pursuit of power through fear, Dagunro had only succeeded in isolating himself, a king of a crumbling kingdom built on sorrow and loss.

The children found refuge in a neighboring village, vowing never to let fear rule their lives again. They spoke of their father's atrocities, warning others of the dangers of tyranny and the importance of compassion. Dagunro's name became synonymous with cruelty, a cautionary tale that would echo through generations, a reminder that the bonds of family should be nurtured with love, not fear.

Politics / The Real Opposition To President Tinubu's Reelection: Hunger by tolastikha: 6:09pm On Aug 25
As 2027 approaches, the political landscape in Nigeria is shaping up for another round of intense election battles. However, the reelection of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu faces an adversary far stronger than any political party: hunger. Nigeria is currently in the throes of hyperinflation at a rate so galloping, it stands unmatched by any nation on earth. This brutal economic reality has left millions of citizens grappling with unprecedented levels of poverty, worsened by a currency teetering on the brink of collapse. The precarious state of life for the average Nigerian is evident in every market, every household, and every paycheck that seems to shrink by the day.

Inflation in Nigeria has reached a dangerous peak. Prices of basic commodities have skyrocketed, with the price of staple foods like rice, once a reliable measure of food security, now so high that even the middle class struggles to afford it. Hyperinflation has eroded the value of the naira, leaving citizens uncertain about tomorrow. No country in recent history has been subjected to such a severe degree of currency instability, and this has bred a nationwide sense of desperation.

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has no tangible answer to this crisis. In a nation where hunger remains the foremost challenge, what matters to Nigerians is no longer political rhetoric or endless promises. They need affordable food, shelter, and stability. As things stand, they are more likely to seek help from the party they know can bring the price of a bag of rice down to at least ₦10,000 and provide affordable housing as it were in the days of the Peoples Democratic Party. A government that can restore these basic needs will undoubtedly win the hearts of Nigerians. For most, it’s not about party allegiance; it’s about survival.

It is baffling to witness President Tinubu’s camp chasing after and raising rounds of northern politicians, seemingly oblivious to the cries of ordinary Nigerians. This strategy reflects a complete lack of understanding of what the nation truly needs at this moment. The rising cost of living continues to cripple households across the country, yet these politicians seem to ignore this critical issue in favour of political posturing. This behaviour suggests a startling level of brainlessness, insensitivity, and above all, mediocrity in their reasoning.

Hunger has become the real opposition to President Tinubu’s reelection. It is not any human opponent but rather the starvation of millions of Nigerians, exacerbated by failed economic policies, that threatens his political future. The APC’s inability to curb inflation or stabilize the economy makes their focus on political maneuvering seem detached from reality. The battle for 2027 is not going to be won by chasing political figures, but by addressing the basic needs of Nigerians. And if the current leadership of the APC fails to understand that, then hunger—not political rivalry—will be the ultimate stumbling block to Tinubu’s second term.

Crime / Attention Nigerians by tolastikha: 8:49am On Aug 18
🚨 ATTENTION NIGERIANS!

It's high time we address the blatant exploitation happening at the hands of some fraudulent bankers across Nigeria. These individuals have developed a disturbing habit of emptying the ATMs, diverting the cash meant for legitimate customers into the hands of their personal POS operators. The result? Outrageous charges that force ordinary citizens to pay exorbitant fees just to access their hard-earned money.

This illegal act has reached its peak, and it demands urgent intervention from the government and law enforcement agencies. In today's Nigeria, walking up to an ATM and finding it stocked with cash has become a rarity. Instead, the money meant for us, the customers, is being siphoned off by these unscrupulous bankers.

We cannot allow this to continue. The regulatory agencies must act swiftly to save Nigerians from these predatory practices. After all, we cannot function in an economy without physical currency—especially when not all transactions can be completed via fund transfers. Paying ₦200 to withdraw ₦1,000 is nothing short of robbery.

Enough is enough. Let's stand together and demand accountability! 💪 #BankingFraud #SaveOurMoney #RegulatePOSFees #NigeriansDeserveBetter
Politics / Re: Ukraine's Green Ocean Strategy: A New Wave In Modern Warfare by tolastikha: 6:09pm On Aug 16
All strategic movements are the same for both warfare, product marketing, and electioneering campaign. What you failed to realise is the fact that all strategic movements have been rebranded into colourative descriptions. We now have red ocean, blue ocean, green ocean, purple ocean strategies and the rest. The effort of the Ukrainian to leave Kyiv despite the potential danger to take up arm in the Russian region and expand their tentacles for relevance is the GOS.

Politics / Ukraine's Green Ocean Strategy: A New Wave In Modern Warfare by tolastikha: 11:15pm On Aug 15
The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine has seen a dramatic evolution in the tactics employed by both sides. As the war rages on, it has become increasingly clear that traditional notions of warfare—where victory is often attributed to the sheer number of troops and material resources—are being challenged by a new, more nuanced approach. Recently, Ukraine has adopted what can be described as a "Green Ocean Strategy," a concept that reflects the fluid and adaptive nature of modern military operations. This strategy has seen Ukraine's Commander-in-Chief leverage a tactical vision that is comparable to viewing one's enemies as mere "ponds across a lagoon," where strength lies in flexibility and the ability to outmaneuver rather than outgun.

This strategy has come to the forefront with Ukraine's recent operations targeting Russia's less defended regions, particularly Kursk. The choice of Kursk is symbolic and strategic, highlighting Ukraine's ability to strike where the enemy least expects it, thereby destabilizing Russian forces and creating a ripple effect that echoes throughout the region. The Green Ocean Strategy is not about a head-on collision but about turning the battlefield into a complex and unpredictable environment, where Ukraine can dictate the terms of engagement.

In this context, Kursk represents more than just a geographic target; it is a strategic move designed to force the Russian Federation to divert its attention and resources. By doing so, Ukraine is applying pressure on multiple fronts, compelling Moscow to respond to threats that are not just immediate but also deeply unsettling in their unpredictability. This approach is akin to the ideology of the green ocean strategist—seeing the enemy not as an overwhelming force but as a series of vulnerabilities to be exploited.

Faced with this strategy, the Russian Federation has found itself in a difficult position. The recent shift in focus from the Ukrainian front to domestic challenges is a testament to the effectiveness of Ukraine's tactics. Russia's decision to pull its soldiers from Ukrainian soil to address the situation in Kursk and other regions indicates a significant shift in the dynamics of the war. It is a reluctant acknowledgment that the battlefield has expanded beyond the physical and into the realm of psychological and strategic warfare.

This development marks a turning point in the conflict, one that suggests the possibility of a "no victor, no vanquish" scenario. By forcing Russia to retreat from its aggressive stance in Ukraine, Kyiv has demonstrated that the war is not solely about territorial gains or losses but about the ability to outthink and outmaneuver the opponent. The Green Ocean Strategy has redefined the rules of engagement, showing that victory can be achieved not through brute force but through superior tactics.

In conclusion, the recent events in the Russia-Ukraine war have shattered the overrated perception that warfare is a game of numbers. The Ukrainian leadership, through the adoption of the Green Ocean Strategy, has shown that war is about tactics—superior tactics. This strategy has not only allowed Ukraine to regain the initiative on the battlefield but also to challenge Russia's military doctrine. As the conflict continues, it is becoming increasingly clear that in modern warfare, flexibility, and strategic insight outweigh sheer numbers. Kyiv's success in this regard serves as a powerful reminder that in war, it is the quality of the strategy that ultimately determines the outcome.

Nairaland / General / End Bad Government: You Can't Stop Nigerians From Crying Out Loud Against Satani by tolastikha: 6:54pm On Jul 25
Dear Nigerian Youths,

We stand with you in your relentless pursuit of a better future. The struggle against bad governance has never been more critical, and your voices are vital in this fight. The current administration's policies have led to unprecedented hardship, and it is your right to speak out against these injustices.

Nigerians deserve the right to live with dignity and hope. Forcing our citizens to endure suffering and premature death under the guise of "Emilokan" is inhuman. It is imperative to remind the federal government that the current president and nearly all cabinet members of the present administration actively participated in demonstrations during the PDP-led administration under former President Goodluck Jonathan. Back then, Nigerians exercised their right to protest, and the nation did not descend into chaos.

The planned peaceful demonstration on August 1st by the youths of Nigeria must proceed unhindered. This demonstration is a crucial platform for the youth to express their anger and frustration against a regime characterized by oppressive taxes and widespread suffering. Your courage to stand up and demand change is a beacon of hope for the entire nation.

Let us unite and make it clear that Nigerians will not be silenced. Together, we can build a nation where every citizen has the opportunity to thrive.

In solidarity,

Tola O. Ajemisogbe
Politics / Understanding Monopolies: State-created Vs. Market Forces-created by tolastikha: 1:20pm On Jul 23
Monopolies are an enduring aspect of economic landscapes, often spurring debates about their impacts on markets and consumers. They can be broadly classified into two categories: state-created monopolies and market forces-created monopolies. While both wield significant market power, their origins, operational dynamics, and implications for consumers and the economy differ substantially.

State-Created Monopolies: A Dangerous Dominance

State-created monopolies emerge through government intervention, where policies, regulations, or direct support favour a particular company, granting it exclusive market privileges. These monopolies often result from political and economic motivations rather than market efficiencies. One quintessential example is the Dangote Group of Companies in Nigeria.

Dangote Group: A Case Study

The Dangote Group, led by Aliko Dangote, has become synonymous with state-created monopolies. Through government support, including favourable tariffs, tax exemptions, and regulatory advantages, Dangote has established dominance across various sectors such as cement, sugar, cement, and salt. This monopolistic power stifles competition, reduces consumer choices, and often leads to higher prices and lower quality products. Most recently, the Dangote Group was finding its way into the oil and gas industry but has to be stopped by state actors knowing fully well that the Nigerian economy is a heavily dependent on oil and gas. Leaving the industry in the hands of an individual could signal a snare.

State-created monopolies like Dangote Group pose significant risks:
1. Consumer Exploitation: With limited competition, these monopolies can dictate prices, leading to consumer exploitation.
2. Market Inefficiencies: Innovation and efficiency take a back seat, as the monopoly lacks the competitive pressure to improve.
3. Wealth Concentration: Such monopolies often enrich state actors and connected elites, exacerbating income inequality.

Importantly, history shows that state-created monopolies are not sustainable in the long run. As political dynamics shift and market conditions evolve, these monopolies face eventual decline or dismantling, often leaving behind economic distortions and weakened industries. This is exactly what has befallen the Dangote Group incursion into the Nigerian oil and gas industry.

Market Forces-Created Monopolies: The Ideal Monopolist

In contrast, market forces-created monopolies arise organically through superior business strategies, innovation, and the inimitability of resources. These monopolies are a product of competitive markets where the best-performing companies naturally dominate due to their efficiencies and consumer preferences. In more recent business scanning around the world, going green through the adoption of the novel Green Ocean Strategy is consider the most likely strategic approach to achieving market forces created monopolise.

Characteristics and Advantages

Market forces-created monopolies, though rare, are typically more enduring and beneficial for several reasons:
1. Innovation and Quality: These monopolies often stem from significant innovation, leading to better products and services.
2. Consumer-Centric: Their dominance is usually a result of meeting consumer needs more effectively than competitors.
3. Market Efficiency: They drive industry standards and efficiency, benefiting the broader economy.

An ideal example of this is tech giants like Tesla, Apple or Google, which achieved market dominance through continuous innovation, quality products, and efficient operations. These companies remain competitive and consumer-focused, fostering an environment where market dynamics, rather than government favouritism, dictate success.

The Comparative Analysis

While both types of monopolies exert considerable market control, their impacts diverge sharply. State-created monopolies often hinder market dynamics, leading to inefficiencies and consumer harm. A testament to what the Dangote Group has done to the Nigeria economy in areas like cement, salt, sugar, noddle, etc. Conversely, market forces-created monopolies, driven by competitive excellence and innovation, tend to enhance consumer welfare and economic health.

In summary, while monopolies are often viewed with skepticism, their origins and operational philosophies determine their true impact. State-created monopolies, exemplified by the Dangote Group, are precarious and often detrimental, built on political favouritism and market distortion. In contrast, market forces-created monopolies represent the zenith of competitive success, embodying innovation, efficiency, and consumer satisfaction. As such, fostering a competitive market environment remains crucial for ensuring fair and beneficial economic outcomes.

Politics / There Are Always Two Sides To A Coin: Both Sides Have Equal Strength Of Reliabil by tolastikha: 3:26pm On Jul 14
Analyzing the Trump Rally Shootings from Two Political Angles

The recent shootings at Trump rallies have fueled intense speculation and debate. In the highly polarized atmosphere of American politics, it's essential to recognize that both sides of any story have equal strength of reliability. Let’s delve into the potential motives behind these incidents from both Republican and Democratic perspectives.

The Republican Perspective: A Sympathetic Strategy?

From the viewpoint of Trump’s allies, it’s conceivable that these shootings were orchestrated to generate sympathy and support for the former president. The idea is that portraying Trump as a victim of violence could rally his base and attract undecided voters.

Consider the following points:

Foreknowledge of Danger: How did Trump anticipate the second shot, prompting him to move his head slightly? This suggests possible foreknowledge of the event, raising questions about whether it was staged.

Security Oversight: Despite spectators alerting the Secret Service about an armed individual on a rooftop, no immediate action was taken. This could imply that the situation was under controlled conditions rather than a genuine security failure.

These elements suggest a calculated move by Trump’s camp to manipulate public sentiment in their favour.

The Democratic Perspective: Eliminating a Rival?

Conversely, the Democrats might have an equally compelling motive to disrupt Trump’s political resurgence. The notion here is that some Democratic loyalists could see removing Trump as a necessary step to secure a win in the upcoming election.

Consider these points:

Biden’s Political Stakes: If Trump wins, Biden stands to lose significantly, providing a strong incentive for desperate measures.

Beneficiaries of Trump's Absence: Who stands to gain if Trump is eliminated before the election? The Democrats would benefit from removing a formidable opponent from the race.

These points indicate that the shootings could have been an attempt by Trump’s political adversaries to eliminate him from contention.

The Chess Game of Politics

Politics is often likened to a game of chess, where strategy and calculated moves dominate. The Trump rally shootings underscore the complexity and intrigue that define political maneuvering. Whether it was a Republican ploy to garner sympathy or a Democratic attempt to remove a rival, these incidents highlight that anything can be considered a valuable asset in the quest for political victory. As the American political narrative unfolds, it’s crucial to stay critical and open-minded, acknowledging that both sides of the coin possess equal strength of reliability.

Politics / Muslim-muslim Presidency And The Survival Of Christian Faith In Nigeria by tolastikha: 11:36am On Jun 30
The political landscape in Nigeria took a decisive turn with the All Progressives Congress (APC) securing the presidency with a Muslim-Muslim ticket. The election of Bola Tinubu and Kashim Shettima, both Muslims, had raised alarm among many observers who believed that this move would intensified religious tensions in the country. The concerns, although not without basis was suppressed by the agents of the ruling national government; since they ascent to power, there have been reports suggesting a rise in targeted violence against Christians, signifying a dangerous shift in the ongoing religious conflict.

A New Turn in Islamic Jihad

The past year has seen a disturbing escalation in attacks that are perceived to be part of an ongoing Islamic jihad. These attacks, which have predominantly targeted Christian communities, have resulted in the deaths of numerous Christians and clergy families. Most recent cases of this Islamic jihad, ISWAP, Bokoharam, Fulani immigrants, etc, against the Christians under the watch of President Bola Tinubu and Kashim Shettima include but not limited to; Father Mikah of Zamfara State, Rev. Natalie and Most Rev. Dr. John Bakeni, Rev. David Ayuba Azzaman, Pastor Paul Musa, and Wife. The economic sabotage aimed at Christians has also intensified, with many families facing ruin due to ransom demands that strip them of their financial resources. The systematic nature of these attacks has led many to believe that there is a concerted effort to weaken and eventually annihilate the Christian population in Nigeria.

Disenfranchisement and Political Manipulation

During the last Presidential election, many Nigerians expressed their fears about the implications of a Muslim-Muslim ticket. Despite widespread concerns, it was evidently clear that numerous Nigerians were disenfranchised, unable to exercise their voting rights effectively. This disenfranchisement in the opinion of the general public was deliberate tactic to ensure the election of the APC candidates, despite the potential for increased religious strife.

Calls for International Intervention

The silence of President Tinubu and Vice President Shettima in the face of these atrocities has been deafening. Their reluctance to address the escalating violence against Christians has only fueled suspicions of complicity or, at the very least, indifference. As the situation deteriorates, there is an urgent need for international intervention to protect the remaining Christian population in Nigeria.

I call upon the United Nations, the Commonwealth of Nations, the American government, and Russia to recognize the severity of the situation and take immediate action. The global community must not stand by as an entire faith community faces potential obliteration. Diplomatic pressure, humanitarian aid, and, if necessary, peacekeeping interventions should be considered to halt the ongoing violence and ensure the protection of Christian lives and properties.

Conclusion

The current trajectory under the APC's Muslim-Muslim leadership poses a grave threat to religious harmony and the safety of Christians in Nigeria. The international community must act swiftly to address this crisis, ensuring that the principles of religious freedom and human rights are upheld. Without intervention, the Christian faith in Nigeria faces an uncertain and perilous future.

Foreign Affairs / For The Sake Of Mary Trump, Americans Should Vote For Donald Trump by tolastikha: 7:32am On Jun 29
As the 2024 Americans' election season approaches, it is crucial for Americans to consider the motivations behind the criticisms of former President Donald Trump. One of his most vocal critics, Mary Trump, the Judas of the Trump family, has frequently aired her grievances against her uncle. However, a closer examination of her statements and motivations reveals that her criticisms are rooted in personal animosity rather than a genuine assessment of his abilities as a leader.

Mary Trump, a psychologist and the Judas in the Trump family, has made it clear through her public statements and writings that her disdain for Donald Trump is deeply personal. Her criticisms often stem from long-standing familial rivalries and disputes, rather than objective analysis of his presidential performance. It is important for American voters to recognize that these personal vendettas should not be allowed to influence the direction of the nation.

Mary Trump's public attacks on her uncle have often been framed as attempts to provide insight into his character and suitability for office. However, the vehemence of her criticisms suggests that they are driven more by personal grudges than by any substantive concerns about his policies or capabilities. This familial discord should not be allowed to overshadow the significant achievements of Donald Trump's presidency or his potential to lead the country once again.

Moreover, it is worth noting that current President Joe Biden has himself acknowledged the toll that age and health have taken on his performance. In several public statements, Biden has admitted that his advancing age has impacted his ability to effectively fulfill the duties of the presidency. This self-admission is a stark reminder that the country needs a leader who is not only experienced but also in peak health to tackle the challenges ahead.

Donald Trump's presidency like the life of Jesus Christ before his betrayal, was marked by significant economic growth, a focus on national security, and a robust response to international threats. Despite the constant barrage of criticism, often fueled by personal vendettas like those of Mary Trump, his administration achieved measurable successes that benefited millions of Americans. His ability to lead and make tough decisions was evident throughout his term.

In conclusion, the American electorate must look beyond the personal animosities that have colored much of the discourse around Donald Trump. Mary Trump's criticisms are rooted in long-standing family feuds and should not dictate the future of the nation. With President Biden's own admissions about his declining health, it is clear that America needs a strong, capable leader to navigate the challenges ahead. For the sake of the country, and to ensure a prosperous future, Americans should consider voting for Donald Trump in the upcoming election. His proven track record and unwavering dedication to the nation make him a formidable candidate who can lead with strength and conviction.

Politics / Democracy Day: My Candid Suggestions To President Bola Ahmed Tinubu by tolastikha: 11:31pm On Jun 11
As we celebrate Democracy Day, it's a moment for reflection and a call to action. Mr. President, Nigeria is going through a lot. Our nation's indebtedness is at alarming levels, and the economic growth rates are causing sleepless nights for many citizens. In these trying times, Nigerians are watching closely, aware of discussions about changing our national symbols – our flag, logo, or even our map. However, let me remind you, Mr. President, that such efforts would be superficial and fail to address the root issues we face.

Here are two bold options for your consideration:

1. Rebrand the Nation:
Mr. President, you could take the unprecedented step of announcing that the name "Nigeria" ceases to exist. By giving our country a new name, we could potentially reset our national identity and obligations. In this strategy, all debts attributed to Nigeria would become null and void, as the entity responsible for these debts would no longer exist. This drastic measure might provide a fresh start, free from the heavy burden of our current liabilities.

2. Seek Divine Intervention:
Alternatively, you could convene a council of spiritual leaders. Invite three pastors, three imams, and three babalawos, giving them a seven-day ultimatum to devise solutions to Nigeria's problems. This approach might sound unconventional, but we've seen community heads employing such measures successfully in traditional settings. Trust in the wisdom and guidance of these seers could lead to actionable insights, grounded in the spiritual and cultural fabric of our society.

Mr. President, a good leader is one who provides effective solutions to pressing problems. The types of leadership we've had in the past have failed to deliver the change we need. It's time to take the bull by the horns and steer our nation out of this quagmire. Nigerians are suffering from hunger and economic hardship. Salary increments are not the solution we seek. We need a genuine, lasting solution that addresses the core issues once and for all.

As we observe Democracy Day, let this be a turning point for our beloved country. Bold and innovative leadership can guide us towards a brighter future. Nigerians are ready for change, and we look to you to lead the way.

Foreign Affairs / If Nigeria Is Worth Dying For, Samson Siasia Wouldn't Be Left Cold In European C by tolastikha: 12:47pm On Jun 09
In the annals of history, nations have been known to fiercely protect their own, demonstrating unwavering loyalty and commitment to their citizens. The United States, for instance, has shown an unyielding determination to bring back citizens caught in the most dire situations abroad. The notorious case of espionage involving Americans in Russia often sees high-level negotiations and relentless efforts to secure their return. Similarly, even the most militant groups in the Middle East have demonstrated a fierce dedication to recovering their captured fighters, often employing extreme measures to do so.

Contrastingly, Nigeria, a country rich in culture and potential, seems to lack this profound sense of national loyalty. The tragic tale of Samson Siasia, a celebrated footballer and coach, serves as a poignant example of this neglect. Once the pride of Nigeria, Siasia now languishes in the cold reality of European exclusion, abandoned by the nation he served with distinction.

Samson Siasia's contributions to Nigerian football are legendary. He was a beacon of hope and inspiration, leading teams to glory and instilling a sense of national pride. Yet, when he found himself embroiled in a legal quagmire, accused by FIFA of match-fixing, Nigeria turned a blind eye. Despite his vehement denials and the subsequent lifting of his life ban by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), Siasia remains isolated and unsupported, left to battle the remnants of his tarnished reputation alone.

In a recent conversation with Siasia, his despair was palpable. Mr. Samson had a phone conversation with me on my sick bed yesterday with a heavy heart expressed a profound regret about his nationality. "I wish I was never a Nigerian," he confided in me. His words echo the sentiment of many who feel abandoned by a system that should protect and advocate for them. The lack of support from the Nigerian government and sports authorities is not just a personal betrayal to Siasia but a national disgrace that questions our collective conscience and national identity.

Nigeria, often described as a land where the strong devour the weak, must reassess its values. It is disheartening to see a country so divided by self-interest that it neglects those who have sacrificed and contributed immensely to its prestige. If truly Nigeria is a nation worth dying for, it must show it by standing up for its own, especially in their time of need.

This is a heartfelt plea to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Minister of Sport, and Nigerian Ambassadors worldwide. The plight of Samson Siasia demands immediate attention and action. It is imperative to initiate a fair hearing and extend the necessary support to restore his dignity and standing.

Nigeria's greatness lies not just in its natural resources or its vibrant culture, neither on the National Anthem but in its people.

Foreign Affairs / The World May Just Have Identified Three Enemies Of Modern Civilization: As Puti by tolastikha: 10:00am On May 24
In an unsettling turn of events, three individuals have emerged as significant threats to modern civilization: Vladimir Putin, Karim A.A. Khan, and Femi Fani-Kayode. This trio has been accused of working towards the annihilation of the Jewish community worldwide, raising alarms among global leaders and human rights advocates.

Vladimir Putin: A War on Legitimacy

Russian President Vladimir Putin's aggressive actions against Ukraine have been widely condemned. His invasion and subsequent war efforts have not only caused widespread destruction and loss of life but also stand as a stark affront to international law and the principles of sovereignty. Putin’s disregard for legitimate Ukrainian governance and his continued aggression suggest a broader agenda that could extend to undermining Jewish communities and other minorities within and beyond Russia. His actions have ignited a humanitarian crisis, displacing millions and destabilizing the region, which indirectly impacts global Jewish communities who often find themselves targeted in times of political and social unrest.

Karim A.A. Khan: Shielding Terrorism

Karim A.A. Khan, the current Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), is under scrutiny for his perceived leniency towards terrorist activities. Critics argue that Khan's legal interpretations and prosecutorial decisions have inadvertently allowed terrorism to survive and thrive. This perceived complicity has serious implications for global security, particularly for Jewish communities who have historically been frequent targets of terrorist attacks. By failing to robustly counteract terrorism, Khan is seen as enabling environments where anti-Semitic violence can flourish unchecked.

Femi Fani-Kayode: An Advocate Against Israel

Femi Fani-Kayode, a Nigerian politician and former Minister of Aviation, has been a vocal critic of Israel. His rhetoric and political stance are often perceived as antagonistic towards the continued existence of the Israeli state. Fani-Kayode's statements and actions fuel anti-Israel sentiments, which contribute to a broader climate of hostility against Jewish people globally. His influence in Nigerian and broader African politics raises concerns about the spread of anti-Semitic ideologies in regions already fraught with ethnic and religious tensions.

The Trio's Threat to Modern Civilization

The actions and ideologies of Putin, Khan, and Fani-Kayode signify a direct challenge to modern civilization and the values it upholds. Their combined efforts threaten to erode the fundamental rights and protections that have been established to safeguard diverse communities, including Jews. By undermining international law, supporting terrorism, and fostering anti-Semitic rhetoric, these individuals are seen as attempting to destabilize global order and progress.

A Call to Action for World Powers

In light of these developments, it is imperative that world powers take decisive action to counteract the influence of these three figures. The international community must:

1. Increase diplomatic and economic pressure on Russia to halt its aggressive actions against Ukraine and ensure the protection of all minority communities within its borders.
2. Hold Karim A.A. Khan accountable for his prosecutorial decisions, demanding greater rigor and impartiality in the fight against terrorism.
3. Condemn and counteract the rhetoric of Femi Fani-Kayode, working to dismantle the spread of anti-Semitic ideologies and ensure the safety and security of Jewish communities worldwide.

By singling out these adversaries of peace and stability, the global community can work towards safeguarding the principles of human rights and modern civilization. It is crucial to address and neutralize their threats before they can cause more havoc and undermines God's plans for human and environmental well-being.

Politics / The Satanic Stand Of Mr. Femi Fani-kayode Against God's People Will Soon Yield N by tolastikha: 5:15am On May 24
In recent times, Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode, former aviation minister of Nigeria, has emerged with statements that many perceive as openly antagonistic towards God and His people. His vitriolic rhetoric and blatant disdain for the Christian faith have not gone unnoticed. This article aims to address Mr. Fani-Kayode's antagonism and remind him of the historical consequences faced by those who have dared to oppose God.

Throughout history, individuals who have taken a stand against God and His followers have met with divine retribution. The Bible is replete with stories of such figures who, in their hubris, believed they could defy the Almighty, only to be brought low by His justice. Nebuchadnezzar, King Herod, and others serve as poignant reminders that opposition to God is ultimately futile and self-destructive.

Mr. Fani-Kayode, in his recent tirades, seems to have forgotten these lessons of history. His scornful words towards the Israeli citizens are not only offensive but dangerous, as they set him on a path that many before him have trodden, leading to disgrace and downfall. His current stance is reminiscent of the late president of Iran, whose antagonism towards God's people eventually led to his demise. Like the proverbial cup of iniquity, Mr. Fani-Kayode's persistent actions and words against God and the good people of Israel are reaching their brim.

Christians around the world are vigilant and prayerful, recognizing the importance of standing firm in their faith in the face of such opposition. The global Christian community is not ignorant of Mr. Fani-Kayode's proclamations. They watch and pray, knowing that God hears and responds to the cries of His people. The history of God's dealings with those who blaspheme His name is clear: divine justice will prevail.

It is crucial for Mr. Fani-Kayode to understand that his current trajectory is perilous. His disdain for God and His people will not go unanswered. The scriptures remind us in Galatians 6:7, "Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows." His actions are sowing seeds of discord working relentlessly to see that Hamas dominate Israel, which will inevitably yield a bitter harvest for plotters of evils.

In conclusion, Mr. Fani-Kayode must reconsider his stance. History is a testament to the fact that those who challenge God do not fare well. His current stand will definitely backfire as it has always been the case for Israeli enemies from history.

Foreign Affairs / Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi’s Death: A Lesson For Enemies Of God by tolastikha: 11:07pm On May 21
The passing of Iran's President Ebrahim Raisi has stirred a myriad of reactions across the globe. For those who view the world through the lens of faith, his death is a profound reminder of a timeless truth: God is capable of defending Himself, His followers, and His divine order. The lesson here is one of total obedience to His words as outlined in both the Old and New Testaments.

Throughout history, leaders have risen and fallen, often becoming symbols of broader spiritual and moral battles. Ebrahim Raisi's tenure was marked by significant controversy and conflict, making his death a poignant moment for reflection. For believers, it is a testament to the power and justice of God, who operates beyond the visible and immediate scope of human understanding.

In the Bible, we find numerous examples of God's might and the importance of unwavering faith. From the stories of Moses and the Israelites in the Old Testament to the teachings of Jesus Christ in the New Testament, the message is clear: God protects and vindicates those who remain faithful to Him. As Proverbs 21:30-31 states, "There is no wisdom, no insight, no plan that can succeed against the Lord. The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but victory rests with the Lord."

For those who oppose divine principles or act as "enemies of God," the fate of Ebrahim Raisi serves as a stark warning. It underscores the futility of standing against the omnipotent Creator who oversees all. God does not require human defense; His sovereignty is absolute, and His justice is inevitable. This profound truth should compel everyone to align their lives with His commandments, trusting in His ultimate plan.

In today's world, where moral and spiritual challenges abound, the call for total obedience to God's word is more urgent than ever. The scriptures provide a comprehensive guide for living a life that honours God and ensures His protection. As Jesus stated in John 14:23, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.”

Let us take this moment to recommit ourselves to the teachings of the Bible, finding strength and direction in the holy words of both the Old and New Testaments. By doing so, we place ourselves under God's sovereign protection, knowing that He is fully capable of defending His truth and His people.

The death of President Ebrahim Raisi is a powerful reminder that God’s will prevails. Let us learn from this event, deepening our faith and obedience, and rest assured in the knowledge that God can and will defend Himself, even in the most tumultuous times.

Foreign Affairs / Trump And His Republican Hardliners: Riding On Ukrainian Blood To The White Hous by tolastikha: 7:32am On Apr 12
Introduction:
The relationship between the United States, Ukraine, and Russia has been a topic of significant concern in recent years. This article aims to explore the alleged connections between President Donald Trump, his Republican allies, and their stance on Ukraine, suggesting that they may have prioritized their own political interests over supporting Ukraine in its conflict with Russia. It is important to note that the claims made in this article are based on available information and public discourse.

Trump's Alleged Ties to Russia:
Throughout his presidency, Donald Trump has faced scrutiny regarding his alleged ties to Russia. While the investigation by Special Counsel Robert Mueller did not establish conclusive evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 election, questions about Trump's relationship with Russia remain. These allegations have fueled speculation about whether Trump's policies towards Ukraine are influenced by his personal interests rather than the national interest of the United States.

Republican Congressional Denial of Ukrainian Military Support:
One notable aspect of Trump's presidency has been the reluctance of some Republican legislators to provide military support to Ukraine. The denial of military aid to Ukraine, particularly in its conflict with Russia, has raised concerns about the motives behind this decision. Critics argue that Trump and his Republican allies may have prioritized their own political interests over the security and well-being of Ukraine.

Allegations of Hoodwinking and Manipulation:
Critics suggest that Trump has manipulated Republican lawmakers to align their policies with Russia's interests, specifically in the context of the conflict with Ukraine. This alleged manipulation has resulted in the denial of crucial military support to Ukraine, further exacerbating the ongoing conflict. Some argue that Trump's actions have effectively hoodwinked Republican legislators into working for the victory of Russian President Vladimir Putin in the war with Ukraine.

The Preciousness of Ukrainian Blood:
Ukraine has suffered greatly as a result of its conflict with Russia, with thousands of lives lost and countless others displaced. It is crucial to recognize the value of human life and the importance of standing up against aggression and injustice. Ukrainians' blood, shed in the pursuit of freedom and self-determination, should serve as a rallying call for Americans to support Ukraine in its struggle against Russian aggression.

The Importance of the November Presidential Election:
Given the allegations surrounding Trump's relationship with Russia and his stance on Ukraine, it becomes imperative for Americans to carefully consider their vote in the upcoming November presidential election. The election presents an opportunity for Americans to voice their opinion and take a stance against any perceived injustices. By voting against Trump, Americans can demonstrate their solidarity with Ukraine and send a strong message that Ukrainian blood is more precious than any White House seat.

Conclusion:
The alleged connections between Trump, his Republican allies, and their stance on Ukraine have raised concerns about the prioritization of personal political interests over national security and international justice. It is essential for Americans to stay informed, critically analyze the available information, and consider the implications of their vote in the November presidential election. By standing with Ukraine, Americans can affirm their commitment to supporting democratic values, protecting human rights, and opposing any form of aggression and manipulation.

Crime / The Military's Overstep: A Dangerous Precedent In Nigerian's Legal Landscape. by tolastikha: 3:02pm On Mar 30
In recent times, a concerning trend has emerged in Nigeria's legal framework, one that threatens the fundamental principles of justice and accountability. The issue at hand revolves around the role of the military in investigations, examinations, and prosecutions within the country. Under Nigeria's legal system, the military is not meant to encroach upon these domains, yet recent events suggest a troubling departure from established norms.

Central to this debate is the tragic incident at Okuama, where 17 troops of the Nigeria Army were brutally murdered. In the wake of this heinous act, it is imperative to address not only the atrocity itself but also the manner in which justice is pursued. However, concerns have been raised regarding the involvement of the military in the investigation and prosecution of the perpetrators.

The crux of the matter lies in the fact that, under Nigeria's legal framework, the military is considered an alien entity to such proceedings. The Nigeria Police authorities are tasked with the responsibility of conducting investigations and ensuring that justice is served. This division of roles is not arbitrary but rather essential to upholding the rule of law and preserving the integrity of the justice system.

Yet, recent developments indicate a dangerous overstep by the military. Reports suggest a clandestine attempt to alter constitutional rights regarding who should investigate and prosecute criminal acts, particularly those involving members of the armed forces. Such actions not only undermine the established legal protocols but also pose a grave threat to accountability and transparency.

The ramifications of this overreach are profound, especially in the context of the Okuama massacre. By allowing the military to take control of the investigation and prosecution process, there is a real danger of sweeping the matter under the carpet. Justice delayed is justice denied, and any attempt to obscure the truth or shield the perpetrators from accountability only serves to perpetuate impunity.

It is imperative that the Federal Government of Nigeria heed these warnings and take decisive action to address this troubling trend. Upholding the rule of law and ensuring that justice is served for the fallen soldiers and their families must be prioritized above all else. Any deviation from these principles not only undermines the credibility of the justice system but also erodes the trust of the Nigerian people in their government.

In conclusion, the overstep of the military in matters of investigation and prosecution of criminal represents a clear and present danger to Nigeria's legal landscape. The Federal Government must act swiftly and decisively to rectify this situation, lest the foundations of justice and accountability be irreparably compromised. The memory of the brave soldiers who lost their lives at Okuama demands nothing less than a commitment to upholding the rule of law and ensuring that those responsible are held accountable.

Foreign Affairs / The West Is Further Empowering Hamas To Perpetuate Greater Havoc Against The Jew by tolastikha: 6:41am On Mar 28
Recent events in the Middle East have once again brought to light the precarious situation faced by the Jewish community due to the unchecked empowerment of Hamas. Despite the urgent need to curtail Hamas's destructive capabilities, the rush to impede Israeli efforts to neutralize this threat only serves to embolden these militants. By inhibiting Israel's defensive measures, world leaders inadvertently signal to Hamas that their actions against Jews will be met with impunity.

The repercussions of this misguided approach are dire. Not only does it reinforce Hamas's belief that they can act with impunity, but it also endangers the lives of innocent civilians and destabilizes the region. The West's reluctance to confront Hamas head-on translates into tacit approval of their heinous actions, perpetuating a cycle of violence and suffering.

It is imperative that world leaders heed the lessons of history and recognize the inherent danger of appeasing terrorists. In the Bible, God Himself commanded the eradication of ideologies akin to Hamas, underscoring the gravity of the threat they pose to humanity. Ignoring this admonition only emboldens Hamas and jeopardizes global stability.

Furthermore, countries like China and Russia must acknowledge their role in enabling Hamas by providing them with moral courage and diplomatic support. Their refusal to condemn Hamas's actions sends a dangerous message to other terrorist organizations worldwide. It is high time for these nations to reassess their priorities and stand on the side of justice and morality.

In conclusion, the West's failure to confront Hamas only serves to empower them further, perpetuating greater havoc against the Jewish community and threatening global stability. It is incumbent upon world leaders to prioritize the safety and security of all people by unequivocally condemning terrorism in all its forms.

This article underscores the urgency of addressing the threat posed by Hamas and the consequences of failing to do so. It emphasizes the need for moral courage and decisive action on the part of world leaders to confront terrorism and safeguard innocent lives.

Politics / Terror And The Conspiracy Of Power Hungers Taking Politics Beyond Equity: By by tolastikha: 8:13am On Mar 16
Once upon a time, in the political landscape of Nigeria, a group of conspirators known and styled the All Progressive Congress (APC) emerged. Their aim was to undermine and conspire against President Ebele Jonathan, who was then in power. President Jonathan, a well-meaning leader, found himself facing a relentless onslaught of distractions and fabricated controversies, herdsmen, kidnapping, Chibok girls, bring back our girls, all designed to tarnish his government's reputation and incite the civil populace to continuously undermine his authority.

At the heart of this conspiracy was a prominent figure, the terror himself, the now emperor, the Jagaban, who held significant influence and power within the APC. The emperor, who is now the Lord of the ring, played a central role in orchestrating the plot against President Jonathan. However, little did he know that the nemesis he helped create would eventually come back to haunt him.

The southern brotherhood he once conspired against is now witnessing him facing the repercussions of his actions. The northern oligarchs, known collaborators in such political maneuvers, are always ready to be used as tools to stage-manage chaos when their interests are not sufficiently protected. The tables have turned, and the emperor finds himself on the receiving end of the political machinations he once orchestrated.

Amidst the current circumstances, it is important for the emperor to reflect on his past actions and accept the consequences that come with them. Instead of crying foul, he should take the necessary steps to address the challenges he now faces. He should pay ransom and bring back our educator and educationists. Just as he once served his southern brother a bitter dose, it is time for him to take his own medicine and experience the taste of his own actions.

In the intricate web of political conspiracies, it is often the case that those who conspire against others eventually find themselves entangled in their own snares. The story of President Jonathan and the All Progressive Congress serves as a reminder that no one is immune to the consequences of their actions. As the emperor navigates the challenges ahead, he must come to terms with the nemesis that has befallen him and learn from the lessons of the past.

Politics / The Unsettling Reality: Examining The Alleged Antichrist Agenda Of The Biden Adm by tolastikha: 8:05am On Mar 16
Introduction:
In recent times, there has been growing concern regarding the relationship between the United States and Israel under the Biden administration. Some assert that the current American-led government is running an antichrist agenda against the Israeli state, drawing comparisons to biblical wars of old. In this article, we will delve into these claims and explore the underlying dynamics that have fueled such assertions.

The Biden Administration and Israel:
The United States has long been a staunch ally of Israel, with both nations sharing a strong bond built on shared values and strategic interests. However, recent developments have raised questions and concerns among some observers. It is essential to examine these claims and their potential implications.

Alleged Accord with Syria:
One of the primary concerns raised is the alleged signing of a significant milestone accord between the United States and Syria. This accord is not just as recent as many asserted. It began with former president Barrack Obama. Critics argue that this move could potentially provide financial support to Hamas and Hezbollah militias, thus threatening the security and stability of Israel. The fear of this alleged funding exacerbating tensions in the region is a cause for worry for many supporters of Israel.

Exploring the Antichrist Narrative:
The term "antichrist" carries deep religious and historical connotations. Some individuals perceive the actions of the current administration and the one before it as reminiscent of biblical wars, drawing parallels to events that unfolded centuries ago. While it is essential to respect differing opinions, it is equally crucial to approach these claims with critical thinking and rational analysis.

The Importance of Dialogue:
In times of disagreement or perceived animosity, it is vital to engage in open and respectful dialogue. Constructive conversations can help bridge gaps, dispel misunderstandings, and foster understanding between nations. The U.S.-Israel relationship has weathered various challenges in the past, and it is through dialogue and cooperation that both countries can find common ground.

The Biden Administration's Stance:
It is crucial to note that the Biden administration has repeatedly expressed its commitment to the security and well-being of Israel. But it has repeatedly expressed its desire for regime change in Israel. President Joe Biden has reiterated the United States' unwavering support for the Israeli state, emphasizing the importance of a two-state solution and promoting peaceful negotiations. These statements aim to reassure both Israelis and their supporters that the relationship between the two nations remains steadfast. But the recent cacophony of threats that the Israeli citizens should consider replacing their Prime Pinister, is against Democratic tenet of countries as civilised as the America State.

Conclusion:
While some individuals may view recent actions and developments through the lens of an alleged antichrist agenda, it is essential to approach these claims with a critical mindset. The U.S.-Israel relationship is complex, and it is crucial to foster open dialogue and understanding between nations. As we navigate the challenges of our time, it is through respectful engagement that we can foster a more secure and peaceful future for all parties involved.

Politics / Global Action Urged To Counter Putin's Aggression In Ukraine: A Warning Against by tolastikha: 6:01am On Mar 11
Global Action Urged to Counter Putin's Aggression in Ukraine: A Warning Against Emerging Bullies Worldwide.

An Article to Support Sustainability of Human Existence.

A Special Summary.

As tensions escalate in Ukraine, I strongly urged World leaders to take decisive action to curb Russian President Vladimir Putin's aggression. Standing on the pedestal of skills in planning for turbulent future, I dare to state that failure to clamp down on Putin's actions could embolden other bullies across continents, leading to dire consequences for global stability.

I am most convinced that with Russian forces continuing their assault on Ukraine, the international community faces a critical moment in history. The actions taken—or not taken—against Putin will set a precedent for how the world deals with aggression and tyranny in the 21st century.

Standing on a pulpit of professionalism in Strategic Management, I can say without being economically conscious of letters and their strengths that a total clampdown on Putin is necessary not only to halt the violence in Ukraine but also to send a clear message to potential bullies worldwide. And that a huge repercussions of allowing Putin's aggression to go unchecked extend far beyond Europe. They pose a threat to peace and security on a global scale.

Bullies exist in every corner of the world, from Africa to Asia, Europe to America. However, the fear of facing consequences from the international community has deterred many from following in Putin's footsteps nor unleashing terror on perceived weaker nations. A failure to act decisively against Putin's actions in Ukraine could embolden these bullies, leading to a surge in authoritarianism and conflict.

If Putin is allowed to continue unchecked, I must emphasize, within a decade, the world could see the emergence of seven other bullies, each with their own agenda of aggression and oppression. Such a scenario would plunge the world into chaos and threaten the very foundations of international peace and cooperation.

Therefore, global leaders must come together to implement robust measures to counter Putin's aggression in Ukraine. This includes imposing severe sanctions, providing military assistance both in fighting forces, military aids, and Humanitarian Logistics to Ukraine, and actively isolating Russia diplomatically. Only through unified and decisive action can the world prevent a descent into pandemonium and safeguard the principles of freedom, democracy, and human rights for future generations.

We must all know that the crisis in Ukraine serves as a stark reminder of the dangers posed by unchecked aggression and tyranny. The world must act swiftly and decisively to counter Putin's actions, not only to restore peace in Ukraine but also to prevent the emergence of other bullies on the world stage. Failure to do so risks plunging the world into chaos and jeopardizing the future of humanity.

Foreign Affairs / The Impact Of Russia Aggression On Human Race: by tolastikha: 6:59am On Oct 25, 2022
In Part 1, Chapter 1, Page 23 of my book, "The Pathology And Management Of Organizational Sickness", I defined an organization as;

"an intellectual process, through which critical components of human and environmental wellbeing are conceive, nurture and deliver".

In analyzing the definition, I alluded to the fact that any "abortion" to the Critical Components of Human and Environmental Wellbeing will lead to extermination of life here on earth.

My study of the current aggression of Russia in Ukraine shows a determined effort by enemies of human race to invoke hunger to wipe out humans from the surface of the earth.

Whereas there was mild hunger in the world prior to the invasion of Ukraine by the Russians, and that was when organizations were not producing at their uptimum capacities because of their present Organizational Evolution stage at the time (read Part 1, Chapter 1, Page 10: The Morphology Of Organization in the book), there were data to prove that the determined efforts of Ukrainian being the world foodbasket, was beginning to work towards ameliorating high mortality occasioned by hunger. The present position have seen world food production reduced by 25% and world hunger index rising to all-time higher than what was witnessed during 2nd world war in relation to organizational death.

The pre Russians invasion food production index of the world had propelled me to dig deep into the classifications, types, causes, symptoms, and first aid treatments of Organizational Sickness as my contribution to enhancing human occupation of the Planet Earth; however, the present state of things as caused by the Russians have driven researchers crazy and with no hope for future recovery.

It was unbelievable to me firstly, and then to significant population of the world that a major player in the world economy will decent to abyss to be killing Organizations.

Every single Organization that you kill will send 3000 human being to their grave. I don't know if the Russians have studied natural resources formation and utilization to that extent. The multiplayer effects of the death of one organization is huge, no doubt and man ought to work towards ensuring perfect healthcare of organization and not the revise.

The targeting of power stations, hospitals, schools, heat stations, for extermination in Ukraine by Russia Putin is attempt to clear-off human race from the earth.

All Nations need to beg God to remove Putin from amongst us to save human race because number of deaths have increased resulting from hunger which have arose from the huge mutuality rate of organization as a result of the Russians declaration of war against organizations in Ukraine.

When they place sanctions, who will suffer it most?
