Tinubu’s Jaguda Government (Part 4)

Tinubu’s Jaguda Government (Part 4)

By Adeola Aderounmu (Sweden)

Bola Ahmed Tinubu is holding on to the culture of criminality in Nigerian politics. He came to power in 2023 through elections that are (as usual) questionable. There is at the moment (July 2026) a very well-known scandal that should have led to one or two consequences. If Nigerian politics has any iota of credibility, Bola Ahmed Tinubu should have been eased out of power and democratic procedures would have ensured to find a suitable replacement. Shettima is not a suitable replacement even if he is the vice-president. He cannot deny his involvement in the rise of terrorism in Nigeria.

The other possible consequences would have been the outright sacking of Femi Gbajabiamila who is the chief of staff to Tinubu. To sacrifice Gbajabiamila would have taken a lot of pressure off Bola Ahmed Tinubu and even his worst enemies would see such a decision as a big positive point in the regime.

But as usual, as it is with Nigeria’s useless politics, Tinubu is pretending as if nothing happened that he or the useless APC government cannot contain. This has been the common practice in Nigerian politics and the reason for the first line of this essay; that Tinubu is keeping the culture of making sure that Nigerian politicians remain the criminals that they are and that there is no sign of change in sight.

There are allegations that Femi Gbajabiamila took bribes from at least one person who now heads a government establishment. The person, one Prince Adeyemi alleged that he paid N600 million to Gbajabiamila so he could be appointed into position of head of parastatal. He stated that he made an initial payment of N400 million and will balance Femi Gbajabiamila N200 million.

Mr. Adeyemi is the Director General of Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council (PFIPC). PFIPC is under the Presidential Economic Advisory Council, which means it was established directly under the Tinubu-led presidency. The PFIPC parastatal was allocated N1,6 billion in the Nigerian 2026 budget and president Tinubu signed the budget.

For some reasons, things fell apart between Adeyemi and Gbajabiamila and Adeyemi spilled the beans. Suddenly Tinubu and his niche of crooks declared that Adeyemi is a fraudster who has been parading himself as the DG of PFIPC, and that in principle, the PFIPC does not exist.

I do not want to over flog the issues here and it will not be my role to pre-empt what should actually become a legal tussle.

But how come Tinubu and the Nigerian lawmakers signed N1,6 billion to an agency that does not exist? The agency, PFIPC, has offices in the Federal Secretariat and runs a bank account with the Central Bank of Nigeria. The agency has many employees and they are paid by the Nigerian government. Is the Tinubu government full of criminals everywhere, even to the Central Bank?

Tinubu cannot wash his hands away from this scam or scandal. How many more agencies exist just to steal money? How many more Director Generals paid N600 million to influential people in Tinubu’s government? We know that this has been the procedure in Nigerian politics but this is one of the few moments a payee (in this case Mr. Adeyemi) is stating how much he paid and to whom. He allegedly paid Mr. Gbajabiamila, the chief of staff to Tinubu.

 Let me restate my take on this matter. Femi Gbajabiamila should be sacked or Mr. Tinubu should resign. One of the two would avail much even if Nigeria is not used to such adjustments based on criminal activities in government.  

It does not matter that the 2027 elections are in focus. The elections are useless already anyway and completely unnceccasry. If a president is openly seen to be a criminal or if his chief of staff is openly known to be a criminal, one or both of them must leave the government. This is the meaning of sanity.

What is playing out in Tinubu’s jaguda government, like all the previous governments before him, is unacceptable and heads need to roll.

In all of this, I must not fail to mention that I don’t believe in Nigeria. I cannot hide my joy for Cape Verde at the 2026 World cup. Cape Verde has a population of roughly 500 thousand people and made it to the World Cup, showing great courage, hope and unyielding loyalty to country. Nigeria has over 200 million people who are confused about their identities and the way forward for their lives. Nigeria is a blend of confused nationalities who will never reach their potentials in the dangerous mix concoted by the British gangsters over 100 years ago. This is a narrative I intend to go to the grave with even if Yoruba Country never emerges again in my life time.

Threfore, even if I still write about these ills in Nigeria, like this useless Jaguda government under Tinubu, the focus is not to drag the Yoruba country into such criminalities without consequences as we have seen with Nigerian gangster rulers over the decades.

Unless the countries entrapped in Nigeria are free and allowed to thrive, we will be back with these same narratives 100 years from now. That is the genetics of Nigeria.

We Must Secure Yorubaland

We Must Secure Yorubaland

By Adeola Aderounmu

In March 2020 a bomb blast ravaged Bethlehem Girl’s College in Abule-Ado Lagos State. In my response, I urge the Lagos State government, the governors in western Nigeria and the Ooni of Ife to secure Yorubaland.

Before that terror last that destroyed the entire Catholic girls’ school, the environment and several lives, Lagos and western Nigeria was an easy target for uncountable and undocumented terror attacks in forms of truck drivers running into a crowd or the trailers exploding.

Lagos and Yorubaland in general have been a testing ground for terror attacks.

Now, in 2026, terrorism is full blown in Yorubaland.

In several articles and essays over the past decade, I have personally warned that this day would come. I have been screaming that Yorubaland is not secure but I also imagine that we don’t read nowadays and I am also aware that my audiences may not be as far reaching as I have thought.

I continue to hope that since my articles are online, they would be available to a certain generation that would understand the enormity of the problems facing Yorubaland. My generation has joined the previous generations to be classified as the wasted generation. It seems that the generation of Yorubaland custodians between 30 and 40 years today are also totally wasted away!

I have used Festac Town as a case study several times. If the Fulani or the non-Nigerian population in Festac Town decide to eliminate all Yoruba (and other occupants of Festac today June 6, 2026) I think that to a large extent, they would succeed.

As far back as 2016 when I lived for a few days at a hotel on 3rd Avenue in Festac Town, I was shocked by the way Festac have been occupied by Fulani-Hause and probably non-Nigerians.

In 2025 when I walked down 24 Road, 72 Road on Festac Town, I saw another explosive population of Fulani-Hausa and probably non-Nigerians selling everything in the world along the streets of 72 Road.

The consequences of the invasion of Yorubaland under several disguises including the generational sale of cattle, goods and services are that terror cells have multiplied across Yorubaland.

Again, writing about these things means that I am repeating things that I have openly warned about in the past. I wrote that when the time to unleash terror on Yorubaland begins, Yorubaland land may be conquered by the invaders. Sometimes, some things appear impossible or unimaginable, until they happen!

But when you wake up in your house or apartment and you are not sure if you would be taken away by the first person you meet outside your door, then the conquest has gone beyond physical and has become psychosocial. You live in fear. Your lives are in danger.

Your children are taken, their bodies dismembered. Your teachers are kidnapped and killed. Your chiefs and Obas are ridiculed. Your cousins are kidnapped. Your neighbours disappeared without a trace and you wonder when it is your turn. Your enemies got your exactly where they want you.

They occupy your forests; they bring their animals to eat your crops.

In some parts of Nigeria, villages are deserted and the owners of the land have vanished.

Then you shout, one Nigeria! You are not just a fool; you are a lost fool.

How is Nigeria one when you cannot live freely everywhere in the country? How is it one country when the Fulani terrorist is looking for your heads to cut away?

I am not just calling out to the irresponsible “leaders” in Yorubaland, I am calling on you as a Yoruba to secure your land, your environment, your culture, your heritage, your institutions and everything traditional that your ancestors bequeathed to you.

It is your turn as your read this to act, protect the ancestral land and bequeath it in peace to your children and your children’s children.

Your may think you are not at war, but you are in essence.

The war stops when you take control of your land affirmatively, you control your resources, you control your forests, you control your cities. You control your schools, your education, your health institutions. The war stops when you modernize your transport and do away with Okada menace. It stops when you plant your crops, rear your animals, control your good production and engage only in foreign trade from a distance from the enemies that have invade your land and brought you fear.

I can tell you several things your will enjoy when you take control of your life, not least electricity supply, good roads and a more peaceful life in pursuit of happiness in a free and liberated Yoruba country.

Yoruba, Omo Oduduwa, secure your land and let the invaders be gone in no time.

You Cannot ”Go-Fund” Nigeria. It’s Hopeless!

By Adeola Aderounmu, Sweden.

You Cannot ”Go-Fund” Nigeria

I woke up this morning 10 January 2025 to a tiktok post by one Chidera Precious who wants to go-fund a local hospital in her village in Abia State. She had been on holiday from the United States and her sister required medical attention after a domestic accident. It became a nightmare when they visited the hospital and the hospital asked them to go and buy practically everything that her wounded sister required.

If you are interested in the entire story. You can search the name on tiktok. The comment section would also be worth reading.

My dear sister, you may have a good intention but…let me tell you the possible implications of the go-fund me. One idiot in the village may use the money to buy nice cars and a piece of land. If the fund became massive, the idiot would even build a house.

One boss at the hospital may actually buy the necessary items that you generated the funds for. But what happens when the fund is finished? Will you go-fund the hospital for life?

There are so many other things that may happen to the proceeds of the go-fund me. Let me leave that to your imaginations.

Nigeria can never be rescued with go-fund me initiatives in the field of medical facilities or health care infrastructure in general. 

The good thing with this initiative is that it is focused on a village in Abia State. However, it would seem that the village is in the sky. I mean, does the village not have a local government chairman? Does the state not have a governor? The village is not existing in isolation I would presume. So, there should be some annual budget for health in Abia state. There must be budget plans for all the hospitals in all the local governments and in all in health facilities in the state. Private hospitals must have their budget plans too and their operations must be based on available of equipment and medical resources. I hope.  

This village in Abia state is not alone. The entire health infrastructure in Nigeria is a complete disgrace to the intellectual well-being of the African person.

Many years ago on this blog, I suggested that there should be at least 108 functional world class general hospital in Nigeria. That is the least that Nigeria would need, in view of the ever-growing population. Dear Chidera, you cannot build 108 world class hospitals with go-fund me.

But my stance on Nigeria has changed along the line. I do not believe that Nigeria can be rescued, and I do not believe in Nigeria as a country. I have come to accept Nigeria as the business enterprise that the bastard British made it in 1914.

Therefore, my take is that the Biafra Nation or the Igbo Nation would care for the health of the people when Biafra is free. I believe that the Yoruba country would take the health of the Yoruba seriously when the Yoruba country is free. The same will be for any of the nations that are still entrapped in Nigeria, in 2026.

Someone may ask: what is the difference between the people ruling Nigeria now and those who will rule in Biafra or Yoruba countries. The difference will be huge my dear.

Nigeria is run as a business, so the idea of world class hospitals does not arise anywhere.

Biafra country, the Yoruba country, the Arewa country, the Niger Delta country would be governed as serious countries and not the business that Nigeria is. If you know the difference, you will find peace of mind and have great hopes for the unborn generations who would be beneficiaries of the potentials that are entrapped and enslaved in British-made Nigeria.

We cannot go-fund Nigeria. We need to fight for freedom. We need to set our entrapped countries free. We need to build the foundations for the children that are not born. We need to drop this hope and expectations that Nigeria will make it. We cannot wait for Nigeria to happen to us before we acquire or apply sense.

Advocating for Nigeria and hoping that Nigeria will become what we expect is no longer a dream. It has become a nightmare and the only time influential people realize this is when Nigerian suddenly happens to them. Meanwhile that is the Nigeria that we were born into, that is the only Nigeria we know, breath and sojourn daily. This Nigeria has no prospect for the unborn generations. It is based on me, myself and I. It is based on I pass my neighbour, it is based on myopic views about life.

We need to free the entrapped nations in Nigeria and that is the only way our unborn generations that compete in the world 50 years from now, 100 years from now and forver more.

We must let our stitch in time saves nine, and more.

A Risky Life

A Risky Life.

By Adeola Aderounmu, Sweden.

The life of a Nigerian may be worth nothing. The entire world became shocked that Anthony Joshua lost his 2 friends in a fatal accident and there was no ambulance to take him (the survivor) to the hospital.

It’s been about 20 years now: stories and events like what happened to Anthony Joshua are what I have written about regularly. The fact that the world npw knows about the stupidity of Nigerian politicians does not mean that 36 world standard hospitals would be built in Nigeria. I wrote about the need for that few years ago on this blog. The unfortunate incident with Anthony does not even mean that any useless governor in Nigeria would provide more than enough ambulances to convey people from their homes or sites of accidents to hospitals.

What will happen is that amnesia will set in and life will go one until NIGERIA happens to the next person. I heard someone calling the Ogun State governor out. We have called that man out for many other reasons. Some of the worst roads in Nigeria are in Ogun State and to be sure Nigerian roads are the worst roads I have travelled in my life. That is personal because I have not been to so many countries.

But I refused to be dragged into what the solutions are for Nigeria. For Nigeria, there are no solutions because Nigeria was carved in 1914 as a business enterprise by the British for the pleasure of the English Royal family.

I want to be dragged into the prospects for the countries that are entrapped in Nigeria. The Yoruba country for example which (as western Nigeria) was one of the most developed places in the world until the senseless military coup of 1966 set stop to her development and dragged her in the gutters with the rest of Nigeria as a “unitary state”. Eastern Nigerian was also on her path as the technology capital of the world before the same useless 1966 coup in Nigeria.

If the progresses of Yorubaland were not truncated by the several coups that followed and many years of maladministration that continued to this day in 2026, there is no way we would have lost our place as one of the most developed places in the world and our hospitals, roads and schools would have remained world class.

In several essays my arguments are that Nigeria must be dismantled so that the countries within can emerge and start to plan for how their children and children’s children would live in the next 50 to 100 years. But what we see every four years are morons and MOFOS planning (s)elections and repeating the same cycle of idiocy, madness, and sycophancy. Then the people from whom history have been taken and who have been starved of knowledge and free thinking also helps to recycle a failed idea of unitary government that will forever promote the elites, their friends, families, and other acquaintances.

If Nigerians do not want their children to live a risky life, a worthless life, that they are now passing through, a life that can be sniffed away in the twinkle of any eye, they need to put a stop to Abuja politics, they need to put a stop to the stupid and nonsense unitary system of government. They need to demand for autonomy in the regions and possibly the emergence of countries just like the United Kingdom is made up of different countries.

Just imagine a world where the Yoruba country, the Biafra country and the Arewa can be present at the world cup at the same time. Imagine a fourth qualification by the boys from the creeks. In the British-tamed Nigeria, 4 to 5 countries can emerge that could play for honours at the world cup.  

In any case, there is a lot to continue to write about Nigeria until a certain generation would rise up against the useless type of government that pervades the land. There is need for re-education, re-enlightening, re-awakening that whatever led to the risky life we live, whatever led to the life of poverty we live and whatever returned us to the uncivilized era are reversible through conscious and collective efforts.

The acceptance of Nigeria can never lead to freedom or liberation. The acceptance of Nigeria is selfish, wicked and barbaric. We, the adults, cannot think now of what we stand to gain from/in Nigeria, it is too late. People need to wake up, smell the coffee and deliver to the unborn generations, countries that would allow them to seek peace and prosperity.

The unborn generations need to grow in countries where their potentials would be unleashed so that perhaps 100 – 200 years from today, they can catch up with the rest of the world and put Yorubaland, Igboland, Hausaland, Delta region and other places within the Nigerian geographical space in the fore fronts as world powers.

These countries entrapped in Nigeria can achieve such feats but Nigeria will never come close. The British did not create Nigeria to emancipate us, they did to enslave us and they are happy with our uncivilized ways-some people in Nigeria have never seen an ambulance all their lives an they have never experienced world class hospital facilities. They will never do!

Our politicians are also happy to keep us in slavery. Freedom will not be served on a platter of gold. It will come with the due resistance and the emergence of collective intellectual power/will.

The day we stop thinking of ourselves, the day we start thinking of the unborn generations, that is the day our march to freedom begins.

Nigeria’s Full Blown Terrorism

By Adeola Aderounmu

I am also late on writing on this recent upsurge in terrorism in Nigeria. I mean for several years on this blog, I warned that this day would come. In fact, it would get worse. If the terrorist decide to run over for example Yorubaland as we write, there is nothing that could stop them.

I wrote immensely about the unregulated influx of unknown people into Yorubaland, Lagos especially. Let the governor of Lagos State take a tour of the state and see how the population of undocumented people have increased astronomically. There are several potential terrorist cells across Yorubaland. I present to him Festac town as a case study. Let him visit 3rd avenue. He should get to 7th avenue and now 24 road by 721 road.

Lagos and infact Yorubaland has been under siege and the terror cells are there.

So, during the recent attack on Yorubaland, I didn’t know what to say or write because the things I warned about on this blog were playing out like a movie.

Nigeria is not a country. We do not want to come to terms with the fact that we need to split the senseless British colony into the precolonial countries.

Imagine having the Yoruba Army, The Yoruba Navy, The Yoruba Armed Forces and the Yoruba Police, how on earth would we not defend our Yoruba country?

Yoruba country need to wake up and emancipate itself from the oncoming domination of her country by the Fulani.

If the US comes, it may end up in negotiations and Yoruba soveregnity might be lost forever. The US has a history of leaving bitter pills behind.

It is only the Yoruba that can defend Yorubaland.

Nigeria is not a viable country and the stupidity of the british in joining countries that have nothing in common in 1914 ought to be reversed immediately so that we can defend our country and our ancestral land,

I am unable to write about the useless unitary government here, I don’t even have the time to write about the nonsense Abuja politics.

How many people know that most European countries will perish if the money wasted on Abuja politics and Abuja politicians disappear from their countries. They won’t last more than 6 months or a year. That is how expensive, foolish and meaningless Abuja politics is.

As far as I am concern, it is Yoruba country or I shut up. I don’t believe in Nigeria. I have only sympathy and empathy left for Nigeria/Nigerians.

When I go home, I will always be in Yorubaland.
