The Ratel Nation

VDM stood right in front of the army and police blocking the Ministry of Defence and told them the truth they didn’t want to hear. He said: “After 35 years of service, there will be nothing to show for it. You have a gvn that you cannot use to protect your own family but you are using it to protect this terrible government. They travel by flight but you travel by road because you cannot afford it.” He wasn’t talking to the enemy. He was speaking directly to the soldiers and officers themselves. That’s what makes this different. He didn’t just confront the system... he reminded the men holding the gvns that they too are victims of the same system they are protecting. The real problem is not the men in uniform. It’s the system that puts gvns in their hands and turns them against their own people. To the men in uniform, there is still time to wake up. Because one day the uniform will be gone, the salary will stop, and you will return to your villages to face the same poverty, the same bandits, and the same insecurity you were used to shield others from. That day, you will remember this moment and ask why you didn’t do the right thing while you had the chance.

@VictorAnder16 So unfortunate

@TheRatelNation Those dummies? A promise of brown envelope, you'll see them firing with reckless abandon.

Nobody arrest Verydarkman...make una ignore the fake news.

E no go bad if Sowore learns from Verydarkman. Orientation matters.

An APC member offered me millions of naira to start promoting Tinubu from South East Nigeria.

Words of wisdom from Kokopee...it really touched the police officers. You can feel it.

One sentence for missing children. Three paragraphs for electricity that doesn't exist. That tells you everything.

🚨 TO PRESIDENT BOLA AHMED TINUBU, YOUR SPEECH WAS BEAUTIFUL. BUT BEAUTIFUL WORDS HAVE NEVER FED A HUNGRY CHILD. Mr President, we read your speech. Every word of it. And we need to talk to you directly. Not through your spokesmen. Not through the people you pay to defend you online. Directly. Nigerian to Nigerian. You stood before this country and delivered a beautiful speech. But Mr President, speeches do not cook food. Speeches do not bring back missing children. Speeches do not put light in the homes of people who have been in darkness for decades. You mentioned the kidnapped children of Oyo and Borno in one sentence. One sentence. Then you moved on to budget figures like you were reading a company report. Those are not numbers, Mr President. Those are real children. With names. With mothers who have not slept since the day they were taken. And you gave them one sentence. You talked about electricity for three long paragraphs. Task forces. Electricity Acts. N4 trillion bonds. But tonight, after Nigerians finish reading your speech, they will reach for their generator keys. Because there is still no light. And while you were giving that speech, Aso Rock was running on solar panels...because even the Presidential Villa has abandoned the national grid you are asking Nigerians to be patient with. Mr President, you cannot ask Nigerians to trust a grid that your own house has rejected. You said federation revenues have risen. You said states and local governments now have more resources. Mr President, the masses are not feeling that money. The governors are feeling it. The commissioners are feeling it. The political appointees are feeling it. But the market woman in Kano is still counting coins to feed her children. The farmer in Benue is still crying because of insecurity. Building roads and awarding contracts does not solve hunger. It does not create jobs. It does not bring down the price of rice. If the allocation is rising and the people are getting poorer, then the problem is not the money. The problem is who is keeping it. You told young Nigerians to build here, stay here, work here. But fuel is above ₦1,200. Food prices have doubled. Jobs are disappearing. People can't travel by roads anymore due to k!dnapping. You are asking people to stay in a burning house and decorate it. Then you looked into the camera and warned bandits to surrender. Mr President, bandits are not watching Democracy Day addresses. They are not sitting somewhere waiting for a presidential warning before they decide to stop kidnapping. They respond to consequences. They respond to real military pressure. They respond to when their commanders are eliminated and their operations are dismantled. Not to speeches. And then you said... "these windows of surrender will not remain open forever." That line is more disturbing than it sounds. It means the window is still open right now. Which means the same people kidnapping children, killing farmers, and terrorizing communities are still being offered a soft landing while their victims are still suffering. The families of those rescued girls in Borno did not get a soft landing. The teachers kidnapped in Oyo did not get a soft landing. But the people who took them are being told... take your time, the door is still open. That is not justice. That is negotiating with evil while the victims are still counting their losses. You said "criticise me, disagree with me." But your government has intimidated, threatened, and targeted Verydarkman for simply speaking truth. Protesters are being warned off the streets. People are paying a price for using their voice. So which one is it, Mr President? Do you want criticism or do you want silence? Mr President, we have heard speeches for 27 years of democracy. We are still in darkness. We are still hungry. Children are still missing. The heroes of June 12 bled for this democracy. The least you can do is make it worth bleeding for.

He offered bandits a soft landing. Nobody offered the victims one.

Aso Rock left the national grid for solar. But they want you to be patient with NEPA. The irony.

Again this is why I don’t have hope in bola Ahmed tinubu ending insecurity in Nigeria,he sounds like he doesn’t know what to do.

@Kennyadefulu @utdGreyy And who told you that they will leave him? Ratels are not cowards. Let them go and arrest him let's see.

@KennethOkim The are aware just that they obey the last command

@TheRatelNation Even the soldiers don't want to realise that they are also victims too... Many of their friends and colleagues are dead..

Tinubu must go..He is a failed president.. He is the worst thing to have ever happened to Nigerians

“To band!ts, k!dnappers, and sponsors of terr0r, Surrender now or face the full force of the Nigerian state. This window of surrender will not remain open forever, no mercy will be shown to those who trade in the bl0od of Nigerians” — President Bola Tinubu says

Message from the ancestors to Verydarkman

@Kennyadefulu You said he has no guy like Sowore? Are you high on something?
