Honestly, Nigeria and Africans are too slow and too subtle in responding to this open racism and xenophobia by South Africa. This Nigerian man has his child and a passport, yet he is locked out. No police, the South African government is silent, and Nigeria's government is silent. I think it will take an opposition member in Nigeria to speak up about this xenophobia to wake the Federal government up. This is appalling.

UNN increased School and hostel fees by more than 15% this year. This same UNN has its administration considering to renovate the University’s main gate and totally ignoring the living condition of UNN students in both Enugu and Nsukka Campus

I think we will have to take up this UNN hostel matter. I’m aware that this year alone N100 billion was released to 40 federal universities for the purpose of hostels. The university also charges hostel fees. Our students can’t be living in conditions worse than prisons.

Mr. Chagoury, Your Lawyer Is Waiting. So Am I. By Kio Amachree | Stockholm, Sweden | President, Worldview International Gilbert Chagoury, a political operative published an article in The Punch on April 16, 2026, urging you to sue me for defamation. I am writing to tell you directly: please do. I am not hiding in Stockholm. I am not anonymous. My name is Kio Amachree. My father was Chief Godfrey Kio Jaja Amachree QC — Nigeria’s first indigenous Solicitor-General, first Permanent Secretary of the Federal Ministry of Justice, first African Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations. He built the legal infrastructure of the country you have profited from for six decades. I am his eldest son. I know what courts are for. I know what discovery means. And I know precisely what happens when a man with your legal history walks into one voluntarily. So let me be precise. Every charge. Every count. On the record. COUNT ONE: The Swiss Conviction for Money Laundering In the year 2000, a court in Geneva, Switzerland, convicted Gilbert Chagoury of money laundering and aiding a criminal organisation. The funds in question were stolen from the Nigerian treasury by military dictator Sani Abacha, whose regime looted an estimated $2 billion to $5 billion from the Nigerian people during his years in power from 1993 to 1998. The court found that Chagoury helped establish accounts at SG Ruegg Bank in Geneva through which more than $120 million was transferred from the Central Bank of Nigeria on behalf of the Abacha family. He was fined one million Swiss francs. He was ordered to return $66 million to the Nigerian government. He later secured immunity from Nigerian prosecution by returning an estimated $300 million held in Swiss accounts — a figure that itself tells you the scale of what passed through his hands. This is not an allegation. This is a verdict. It is in the Geneva court record. It has never been overturned. It has never been appealed successfully. It stands. While that money was moving through Swiss banks, Nigerian children were dying in hospitals without medicine. Nigerian roads were collapsing. Nigerian teachers were going unpaid. The treasury that should have built this nation was being emptied — and Gilbert Chagoury was the man holding the pipe. COUNT TWO: The United States Visa Denial on Terrorism-Related Grounds The United States government denied Gilbert Chagoury a visa in 2015. The denial was based on intelligence findings that he had provided financial support to Michel Aoun, a Lebanese political figure whose party, the Free Patriotic Movement, operates in political coalition with Hezbollah — an organisation designated as a terrorist group by the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and numerous other governments. An FBI intelligence report, cited in U.S. government proceedings, stated that Chagoury had sent funds to Aoun, who in turn directed money to Hezbollah. The report described Aoun as facilitating fundraising for Hezbollah. The intelligence was described as unverified from a source — but it was sufficient for the United States government to bar one of the world’s wealthiest men from entering American territory. Chagoury disputed the findings. He sued. He lost. The visa denial stood. This is not gossip. This is the record of a proceeding he initiated himself — in which he named as defendants the FBI, the Department of Justice, the CIA, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of State, and the National Counterterrorism Center. He put every American security agency on the stand to clear his name. None of them capitulated. The records remain open. Nigeria’s current president counts this man as his closest personal confidante. His son sits on this man’s company board. Nigeria has given this man its second-highest national honour. And the United States government will not let him through its airports. COUNT THREE: The Federal Election Law Conspiracy and Deferred Prosecution Agreement In 2018, Gilbert Chagoury and two associates resolved a federal investigation in the United States into a conspiracy to violate federal election laws. The investigation found that he had schemed to make illegal foreign political contributions to United States presidential and congressional candidates across multiple election cycles — contributions routed through American citizens acting as straw donors to disguise their foreign origin. One of the political figures implicated in the downstream consequences of this scheme was Nebraska Congressman Jeff Fortenberry, who was subsequently convicted of lying to federal investigators about the illegal contributions and resigned from Congress on March 31, 2022. In 2021, Chagoury entered a civil forfeiture settlement of $1.8 million with United States authorities. He later entered a deferred prosecution agreement with the United States Department of Justice. He has maintained he committed no wrongdoing — which is precisely what deferred prosecution agreements are designed to accommodate while preserving the full prosecutorial record. That record exists. In a lawsuit, it becomes an exhibit. COUNT FOUR: The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway — $13 Billion Without a Single Competitive Bid In 2024, the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu awarded the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway contract to Hitech Construction Company Limited — a subsidiary of the Chagoury Group — at an estimated cost of between $11 billion and $13 billion. This is, by most calculations, the single most expensive infrastructure contract in Nigerian history. It was awarded without a public competitive tender. Without advertisement in the federal procurement gazette. Without the process mandated by the Nigerian Public Procurement Act. The Federal Ministry of Works has not produced documentation of a compliant tender process because no such process occurred. The contract is currently the subject of active litigation in the Federal High Court, brought by a plaintiff invoking the Freedom of Information Act to compel disclosure of procurement documents. The Federal Government has hired no fewer than six Senior Advocates of Nigeria and seventeen other lawyers to resist that disclosure. When a government fights this hard to keep procurement documents secret, the documents are not innocent. At the time of this award, President Tinubu’s son, Seyi Tinubu, was a serving board member of CDK Integrated Industries — a Chagoury Group subsidiary. Documents reviewed by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists and the Organised Crime and Corruption Reporting Project revealed that Seyi Tinubu was also a majority shareholder in an offshore company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands alongside Ronald Chagoury Jr., Gilbert Chagoury’s son. The BVI is a jurisdiction chosen specifically for its corporate opacity. The President of Nigeria awarded a $13 billion no-bid contract to the business empire of a man whose son co-owned an offshore company with the President’s son. Segun Showunmi calls this “infrastructure.” I call it what a Geneva court would recognise. COUNT FIVE: The Snake Island Port — $1 Billion, 45 Years, No Tender In March 2026, a second major contract was awarded to Chagoury Group interests — a 45-year concession for the Snake Island container terminal in Lagos, valued at $1 billion, in partnership with MSC Group, the Geneva-based container shipping giant. ITB Nigeria, the Chagoury subsidiary involved, was awarded this concession without a public competitive process. The companies involved in this transaction carry a documented history of bribery penalties, money laundering convictions, and criminal investigations across multiple European jurisdictions. The Foundation for Investigative Journalism in Nigeria published a detailed account of these legal histories. The Nigerian public has received no explanation of why these companies were selected, on what terms, and under whose authority. Two major port concessions. One coastal highway. All awarded to the same family. All without public tender. All during the presidency of a man who has described Gilbert Chagoury as someone with whom he can “sleep with a still mind.” That is not infrastructure policy. That is a private estate. COUNT SIX: The Citizenship That Abacha Gave Him My critics insist I have no right to examine Gilbert Chagoury’s Nigerian citizenship. They are wrong — legally, constitutionally, and historically. Gilbert Chagoury was born in Lagos in 1946 to Lebanese immigrant parents. His parents were not Nigerian citizens. They were Lebanese nationals who had migrated to colonial Nigeria. He was educated not in Nigeria but at the Collège des Frères Chrétiens in Lebanon. His ancestral village is Miziara in northern Lebanon — where a boulevard bears his name, where the town square is named after his father, and where, by the admission of its own deputy mayor, the entire local economy depends on money earned in Nigeria. It is publicly documented and credibly reported that Gilbert Chagoury received Nigerian citizenship during the military dictatorship of Sani Abacha — the very regime he served as personal economic adviser, and whose stolen funds he was convicted in Switzerland of laundering. The grant of citizenship was not the product of a transparent constitutional process. It was the product of a relationship — between a military dictator who operated entirely outside the law and a businessman who made himself indispensable to that dictator’s financial machinery. A citizenship conferred by a criminal regime, as a reward for services rendered to a looting enterprise, is not a citizenship that places itself beyond scrutiny. It is precisely the kind of citizenship that demands it. COUNT SEVEN: The Passports He Holds But Does Not Disclose Gilbert Chagoury is not simply Nigerian. He is a man of multiple nationalities and multiple passports — a fact his defenders in the Nigerian press conspicuously omit. He holds Lebanese citizenship. He holds British citizenship — he identified himself as a British citizen in his own legal filings before the United States District Court for the District of Columbia when he sued the FBI and the Department of Justice. He holds Saint Lucian citizenship, in whose name he has served as Ambassador to the Holy See and Permanent Delegate to UNESCO in Paris since 1995 — funding that diplomatic mission entirely at his own personal expense, an arrangement that raises the question of what a private billionaire actually purchases when he acquires the diplomatic passport of a small Caribbean island nation. There are credible grounds to believe he holds or has held French residency or citizenship. He has maintained a sustained presence in Paris across decades. He has made major philanthropic contributions to French institutions — the Louvre named a gallery for him and his wife. These are not the habits of a visitor. These are the habits of a man who has ensured that wherever the legal weather turns, he has an exit. When the weather turns in Nigeria — when a new government arrives, when the court orders are enforced, when the FBI files are finally unsealed — Gilbert Chagoury will not be stranded. He has options. He has always had options. The Nigerian people, whose treasury funded those options, do not. COUNT EIGHT: Fifty-Five Years, No Integration, No Intermarriage I will say what others have been too careful to say, and I will say it plainly. Gilbert Chagoury has operated in Nigeria for over fifty-five years. His group employs Nigerians. He has built on Nigerian land, obtained through a concession granted by a governor who is now president. He has extracted Nigerian contracts worth billions. He has received Nigeria’s second-highest national honour. And in fifty-five years, the Chagoury family has not produced a single recorded intermarriage with an indigenous Nigerian family. Not one union. Not one child of mixed Chagoury-Nigerian parentage within the Black Nigerian community. The family has remained entirely within its Lebanese-Christian communal identity — socially separate, culturally distinct, endogamous — while extracting from the Nigerian state on a scale that no indigenous Nigerian family has ever been permitted to approach, let alone achieve. I do not say this to promote ethnic hostility. I say it because it is the legal and social reality of what genuine national belonging means. A man who takes billions from a country’s public treasury while remaining entirely separate from that country’s indigenous social fabric is not Nigerian in any meaningful cultural or familial sense. He is an investor with a passport obtained from a military dictator. That is not the same thing as being Nigerian in the way that the Amachrees are Nigerian. My grandfather Chief Sekin Amachree stood before the Willink Commission in London in 1958 and argued for the rights of Niger Delta minorities before this nation was even formally born. He did not do so as a visiting businessman. He did so as a man whose roots were in that soil across generations. My father Chief Godfrey Kio Jaja Amachree QC built the legal system of this country from the inside — as Solicitor-General, as Acting Attorney-General, as Permanent Secretary of the Federal Ministry of Justice, as the first African to serve as Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations. We did not come to Nigeria to extract. We are Nigeria. Do not tell me I cannot question who belongs here. COUNT NINE: The FBI Files and Judge Beryl Howell This is the count that concerns Gilbert Chagoury most. I know it. His lawyers know it. The Presidency knows it. In the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, a case is currently proceeding before Judge Beryl Howell compelling the FBI and the DEA to disclose files relating to Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his associates. The court has set a disclosure deadline of June 2026. These files exist within the broader landscape of American law enforcement’s decades-long interest in the financial networks surrounding the Abacha regime — networks in which Gilbert Chagoury was a central node. When those files are released, they will not be released into a vacuum. They will be released into a Nigerian political environment twelve months from a general election, with an active, documented, internationally published body of reporting — this reporting — already in place to contextualise every page. I am not speculating about what those files contain. I am stating that they exist, that their release is court-ordered, and that Gilbert Chagoury should consider very carefully whether a defamation action filed between now and June 2026 is the wisest use of his legal resources. A Final Word You have built roads. You have built towers. You have built a city from reclaimed ocean. You have put your name on a gallery in the Louvre and a boulevard in Lebanon. You have made yourself, by any measure, a man of consequence. But you helped a dictator steal from the poorest people on earth. You moved his money through Swiss banks while Nigerian children died in hospitals without medicine. A Geneva court said so. You paid for that verdict. Nigeria is still paying for what preceded it. No concrete poured since then changes what the court found. No national honour conferred secretly on a birthday changes the record. No political operative publishing articles in The Punch changes what I have written — because what I have written is documented, sourced, and true. I am Kio Amachree. I am my father’s son. And I know what an Amachree does when slandered. We go to court. Sue me, Mr. Chagoury. I will be there before you finish briefing your first lawyer.

Frustrations are running high on Shadwell Drive in Northolt. 🗑️ CCTV caught an Ealing Council binman dropping a black bag that split open on the street. Instead of picking up the spilt rubbish, he left it in the middle of the road. The resident who shared this footage expressed anger, stating it’s dangerous for passing cars and unfair that residents are held to strict sorting standards while the council’s own crew leaves a mess. They also highlighted the ongoing struggles of having bins refused collection over minor sorting errors, which is particularly difficult for families managing medical or care waste. 🏡 However, some argue that it is the resident’s responsibility to use stronger, better-quality bin bags to prevent them from splitting in the first place, and that binmen don’t have the time to clean up individual spillages on a tight schedule. What do you think? Should the binman have cleaned up the mess he dropped, or is the resident at fault for using weak bags? Let us know your thoughts below! 📍 Shadwell Drive, Northolt (Rectory Park) 🎥 Submitted #northolt #ealingcouncil #London #UB1UB2

Nigeria's $13 Billion Betrayal. I spent today in disbelief. After releasing the Tinubu files on my page yesterday, one question keeps hitting me: how did the country that gave birth to me allow a bunch of criminals to install themselves in power, rob the nation blind, and build a kleptocratic dynasty designed to make one family the forever leadership of Nigeria? Let me talk about Gilbert Chagoury. This is a man who once fled imminent arrest — his plane was coming in to land in Kano, he was tipped off, and he pulled that aircraft back into the air and ran. A man convicted of money laundering. A man who came back to Nigeria, set up shop, and has extracted $13 billion in contracts through his partner in crime Bola Tinubu. And as reward? In January 2026 Tinubu gave him Nigeria's second highest national honour and called it recognition of his "outstanding virtues." Inside his companies he has installed a system of racism not seen since apartheid South Africa. Nigerian workers treated like animals. Badly paid. Slave conditions. Fire them the moment they protest. Meanwhile Chagoury moves through Nigeria with military escorts and DSS protection as though he is head of state. Every dollar Tinubu gifts this man goes straight to where Chagoury actually lives. Paris. Nigeria is not his home. It is his feeding ground. I blame 250 million black Nigerians who handed passports to Lebanese parasites who feel nothing for this country. If I am sacrificing my time and my health to bring these revelations forward and the response is silence — God punish black Nigerians for reading this and doing nothing. Tinubu is a criminal with blood on his hands and treason in his soul. A CIA asset placed at the top of Nigerian power so the Buhari-era looters could protect their stolen billions. The northern leadership knew. Buhari knew. They read those files and still opened the door. To the Lebanese community in Nigeria — have the conversation with Chagoury. Tell him to pack his bags, return every dollar Tinubu illegally gave him, and leave. History has a way of catching up with those who overstay their welcome in countries they chose only to exploit. Nigeria is not Chagoury's property. The reckoning is coming.

A PUBLIC DECLARATION TO THE PEOPLE OF NIGERIA By Kio Amachree | Stockholm, Sweden ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. I am Kio Amachree. I speak as a son of Nigeria, a child of the Niger Delta, a descendant of Chief Godfrey Kio Jaja Amachree — Nigeria's first Solicitor-General, the man who served this nation before most of its current rulers were born. I speak without political affiliation, without financial sponsor, without fear. Today I am calling on every Nigerian — at home and in the diaspora — to boycott the Chagoury Group and all its businesses with immediate effect. This is not a request. This is a declaration of economic self-defence. WHO ARE THE CHAGOURYS? Gilbert and Ronald Chagoury are Lebanese-Nigerian billionaires who have built the most powerful foreign corporate empire in Nigerian history — not through fair competition, but through political corruption, cronyism, and the systematic capture of Nigerian state power. Gilbert Chagoury holds a Nigerian passport. He also hides behind a Saint Lucia diplomatic passport. He was convicted in Switzerland in the year 2000 for laundering money on behalf of military dictator Sani Abacha — one of the most brutal kleptocrats Africa has ever produced. He entered into a deferred prosecution agreement in the United States. He has faced FBI and DEA scrutiny. This is the man President Bola Tinubu calls his "partner in daring." This is the man Tinubu awarded the Grand Commander of the Order of the Niger — Nigeria's second highest national honour — in January 2026. Let that sink in. A convicted money launderer. Decorated by a sitting Nigerian president. HOW THEY TREAT YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS Let us talk about what the Chagoury Group does to the Nigerian workers who build their empire with their hands, their sweat, and their bodies. ITB Nigeria — a Chagoury Group subsidiary — dismissed more than 150 workers after they protested what they described as poor pay and exploitative working conditions at a Lagos construction site. These were not agitators. These were men who went to work every day building the very infrastructure contracts the Nigerian government handed to their employer without a tender. Workers demanded a transport allowance increase after the fuel subsidy was removed, and raised concerns over discrimination and lack of holiday benefits. They were getting N2,000 daily for transport. After fares skyrocketed, they asked for a review. The company ignored them. That is what led to the protest. And the response of the Chagoury Group to workers peacefully demanding to be treated like human beings? Several of those affected said the company specifically targeted employees who participated in the demonstration. "They picked out those of us who protested," one of the sacked workers said. The protest was widely circulated in a video by Objectv Media, showing a crowd of workers chanting and demanding humane treatment at ITB's Lagos site. It sparked outrage on social media and among labour activists. This is the face behind the luxury hotels, the gleaming towers, the coastal highway. Nigerian hands doing the work. Nigerian families bearing the sacrifice. And a Lebanese family in Lagos punishing those workers for having the dignity to ask for bus fare. This is not an employer. This is an occupier. FIFTY-FIVE YEARS IN NIGERIA. NOT ONE BLACK FAMILY MEMBER. The Chagoury Group was founded in 1971. That is fifty-five years of operating in Nigeria. Fifty-five years of extracting Nigerian resources, winning Nigerian government contracts, employing Nigerian labour, and living on Nigerian soil. In those fifty-five years, ask yourself this question: Has a single member of the Chagoury family married a Nigerian? Has one Black African woman or man been welcomed into the Chagoury bloodline? The answer is no. Not one. Not a single instance of genuine integration into the Nigerian society that has made them billionaires many times over. Gilbert Chagoury has been married since 1969 to Rose Marie Chamchoum — a Lebanese woman. His brother Ronald married into the same Lebanese-Christian community. Their children marry within their community. Their grandchildren will marry within their community. Generation after generation, they take from Nigeria and give nothing of themselves back — not their family, not their loyalty, not their integration. Compare this to the Lebanese and Syrian communities in Brazil, in Mexico, in the United States, in Senegal — where genuine intermarriage, cultural fusion, and civic integration transformed those communities into true members of their adopted nations. The Chagourys have chosen a different path entirely. They live among Nigerians as a permanent colonial caste — above, apart, and untouchable. They send their children to schools in Lebanon, France, and America. They holiday in Europe. Their wealth is domiciled offshore — in British Virgin Islands companies, in Swiss accounts, in Saint Lucia diplomatic protections. They carry Nigerian passports when it is convenient. They carry other passports when it is not. Nigeria is not their home. Nigeria is their mine. And the moment a Nigerian worker asks for bus fare, they are fired. THE EMPIRE THEY HAVE BUILT ON YOUR BACK The Chagoury Group controls the following companies and assets — all feeding off Nigerian public resources, Nigerian land, and Nigerian labour: CONSTRUCTION & INFRASTRUCTURE— Hitech Construction — awarded the $13 billion Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway without a single public bid. In March 2024, Tinubu's government illegally transferred N1.067 trillion ($853 million) in public funds directly to Hitech — without parliamentary approval. Human rights lawyer Femi Falana called it exactly what it is: a crime. — ITB Nigeria — awarded the $700 million contract to renovate Apapa and Tin Can Island ports. No competitive tender. Financed by a Citibank loan backed by UK Export Finance — meaning Nigeria is borrowing money to pay a Chagoury company, while British firms pocket a guaranteed £236 million in subcontracts. The same company that fired 150 workers for peacefully protesting. — C&C Construction — built the Federal Parliament complex in Abuja, the State Security Service headquarters, the Nigerian Defence Academy. Contract after contract. Decade after decade. All awarded by men in power who owed the Chagourys favours. — Snake Island Port — the Chagoury network is now embedded in the latest $1 billion port concession in Lagos, linked to companies carrying histories of bribery and money laundering across three continents. — Lekki-Epe Expressway — awarded to Chagoury by Lagos State. Never completed. The state government was forced to buy it back with public money. No accountability. No penalty. REAL ESTATE— South Energyx Nigeria — controls the land for Eko Atlantic City, 10 million square metres of Lagos coastline granted to the Chagourys by Tinubu himself when he was Governor of Lagos State in 2007. This was public land. Your land. Given away. — Eko Atlantic City — a luxury city for the global elite, built on reclaimed Nigerian coastline. The ordinary Nigerian will never live there. — Ocean Parade Towers — luxury residential on Banana Island, Lagos Lagoon. — Intercontinental Hotel Victoria Island — 19 floors. HOSPITALITY— Eko Hotel & Suites — Lagos's largest five-star hotel. Do not sleep there. — Hotel Presidential — Port Harcourt. — Courdeau Catering — the catering arm. FLOUR & FOOD MANUFACTURING— Ideal Flour Mills — Kaduna — Nigerian Eagle Flour Mills — Ibadan — Niger Delta Flour Mills— Port Harcourt Flour Mills— Grands Moulins du Bénin — 250 metric tonnes of wheat flour per day across West Africa — Tin Can Island Grain Facility Every bag of flour. The Chagourys may be taking a cut. Know what you are buying. WATER, GLASS & MANUFACTURING— Ragolis Waters — do not buy it. — Glassforce — glass manufacturing — Pirotech — industrial production — Silhouette Furniture — furniture manufacturing TRANSPORTATION— Fleetwood Transportation — trucks and logistics across Nigeria HEALTHCARE— Ideal Eagle Hospital — Lagos, retained by Shell and multinationals. Built for their own employees and expatriate clients, not for ordinary Nigerians. TELECOMMUNICATIONS, TECHNOLOGY & FINANCE— Active interests in Nigerian telecoms, IT services, insurance, and international financing CDK Integrated Industries — Seyi Tinubu, the President's son, sits on the board. This is not coincidence. This is state capture in plain sight. MINING — In 2025, Chagoury-linked entities moved to seize lithium mining permits in Kaduna State previously held by British firm Jupiter Lithium, which threatened international arbitration over the permit revocation. Now they want your minerals too. THE TINUBU CONNECTION: A FAMILY AFFAIR The relationship between the Tinubu family and the Chagourys is not merely political. It is corporate. It is financial. It is personal. Seyi Tinubu — the President's son — sat on the board of CDK Integrated Industries, a Chagoury company. Seyi Tinubu and Ronald Chagoury Jr. were co-shareholders in an offshore company registered in the British Virgin Islands — a jurisdiction chosen specifically for corporate anonymity. This was exposed in documents leaked to the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists. Tinubu granted the Chagoury Group title to 10 million square metres of Lagos coastline when he was Governor. He awarded them the Lagos-Calabar Highway. He awarded them the ports contract. He placed Gilbert Chagoury in Nigeria's official COP28 delegation in Dubai. He honoured him with the GCON. He attended a meeting in February 2025 with Chagoury and the Minister of Marine and Blue Economy to discuss handing port operations to Dubai-based DP World — again brokered by Chagoury. This is not gratitude between friends. This is a transaction. And Nigerians are paying the bill. WHAT YOUR SILENCE IS COSTING YOU The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway — N15 trillion — is more than half of Nigeria's entire 2024 national budget. Awarded without tender. To one family. A foreign family. A family with a money laundering conviction. The ports renovation — $700 million borrowed at interest, with British companies guaranteed the subcontracts. Nigeria takes the debt. Britain takes the jobs. Chagoury takes the fees. And the workers who build it earn N2,000 a day and get fired for asking for more. The Eko Atlantic land — 10 million square metres of your coastline — handed over when Tinubu was governor. A luxury city for the global elite, rising on what was once Nigerian public shore. And through it all: no competitive bidding. No parliamentary oversight. No accountability. No integration. No respect. Just presidential praise, national honours for a convicted criminal, and mass sackings for workers who dared to speak. MY DEMANDS — EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY To the Nigerian people: Boycott the Chagoury Group. Do not sleep at Eko Hotel or Hotel Presidential. Do not buy Ragolis water. Do not eat bread from their mills if you know the brand. Do not do business with any entity that bears the Chagoury name or feeds their network. Hit them where it matters — in the pocket. To Nigerian television and media: Stop your silence. Start reporting. The worker sackings at ITB. The Lagos-Calabar Highway scandal. The ports contracts. The BVI offshore company linking Seyi Tinubu to the Chagoury family. The Swiss money laundering conviction. The deferred prosecution agreement in America. The fifty-five years of zero racial integration into Nigerian society. All of it. Before the Nigerian public. Every day. Without fear. To the National Assembly: Investigate every contract awarded to every Chagoury subsidiary since Tinubu assumed office. Demand the tender records. Demand the conflict of interest disclosures. Launch a parliamentary inquiry into the mass dismissal of 150 workers. If the transfer of N1.067 trillion without appropriation was illegal — and Femi Falana has said it was — initiate proceedings. To Nigerian labour unions — the NLC and TUC: The 150 workers fired by ITB Nigeria for peaceful protest deserve your full legal and institutional support. Take the Chagoury Group to the National Industrial Court. Make this case a national landmark on the rights of Nigerian workers against foreign employers who treat our people as disposable instruments. To the international community — the United States, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the European Union: The deferred prosecution agreement is on record. The Swiss conviction is on record. The offshore corporate structures are on record. Apply the same scrutiny to these new multi-billion-dollar contracts that you would apply to any other convicted actor operating at the heart of a sovereign government. Asset freezes. Enhanced due diligence. Correspondent banking restrictions. You know how this works. A FINAL WORD The Chagoury Group has been in Nigeria for fifty-five years. They have taken billions. They have married none of us. They have fired those of us who asked for dignity. They have bought the president. They have bought the contracts. They have bought the coastline. They have bought the national honours. They have given Nigeria a convicted money launderer, mass worker sackings, offshore secrecy, and a luxury city on stolen public land where no ordinary Nigerian will ever live. This is not partnership. This is plantation economics with a Nigerian passport. A Lebanese family — one of whom carries a Saint Lucia diplomatic passport, one of whom was convicted of laundering a dictator's stolen billions — now controls your highways, your ports, your flour, your water, your coastline, the board memberships of the President's own son, and the livelihoods of workers who dare not protest. If Nigerians do not rise — economically, politically, journalistically — this will not stop. The next contract is already being prepared. The next honour is already being planned. The next worker will be fired tomorrow morning for asking for bus fare. Boycott the Chagoury Group. Defend your workers. Demand accountability from Tinubu. Reclaim your country. Nigeria belongs to Nigerians. Kio Amachree | Stockholm, Sweden President, Worldview International Diaspora Activist | Political Commentator

My friend resumed from leave and met someone else sitting at her desk. She earns ₦500,000 a month. The HR department received her resignation letter via email during her short leave. They confirmed it and asked why one of their best was leaving. The response came back: “I got a better offer.” HR acknowledged the resignation. Confused, she rushed to HR. “Sir, have you replaced me?” “You sent your resignation letter, and it was acknowledged.” “No! I didn’t send anything.” HR showed her a copy of the email. At that moment, she knew it was her husband. He had sent the email and deleted them. She confronted him: “Why did you do this to me?” “I’ve warned you about how that job is affecting me. No time for good sèx, and you come home late every day. We’ll find something else for you to do. My salary was just increased to ₦150,000 we’ll manage.” Two months later, he was sacked.

Absolute masterclass on LBC. A British caller completely dismantles a retired US General, exposing Washington as a proxy for Israel. He brilliantly argues that an Iranian nuclear deterrent would actually bring peace to the Middle East by stopping Zionist aggression.

My parents ignored my call about my husband’s death because they were busy with my sister’s birthday. Days later, they appeared at my door demanding half his inheritance—until my 8-year-old daughter handed them an envelope they never expected. When my husband,

OMG Tucker Carlson literally cooked Trump and Piers Morgan brutally: - Tucker Carlson: How many Shiite terror attacks have there been in the United States in my lifetime? - Let me do the math - Zero - So don't tell me that the greatest threat we face is Iran. That's a lie

@UgWrites She needs to do a post graduate degree at a UK university. None of her qualifications are from the UK institution. There is no magic to it.

A qualified doctor is about to leave the UK without ever getting a job. She did everything right: - Medical degree (Ukraine) - 1 year internship (Ukraine) - Passed PLAB 1 & 2 - GMC registered - Fully licensed Over 12 months of applications. Rejection after rejection. She even did clinical attachments in UK hospitals to improve his chances. Still nothing. Now her visa is about to expire. And the only "offer" she’s found? £10,000 for a Certificate of Sponsorship as a health care assistant. Let that sink in. A trained doctor ready to work, But the system won’t let her in💔 How many more are in this exact situation?

@praisegeorge You should wait till they fall ill or their friends in Nigeria fall ill. They usually always end up coming to the UK for treatment or spending all the money paying for hospital bills in Nigeria

Some years ago I was on a flight from the UK to Lagos. I met a Nigerian man who had lived in the UK for 14 years. He had a very sad story to tell about his sojourn abroad. Here's what he told me. He was a manager in a Nigerian Bank before he sold everything and travelled abroad. When he got there he placed his kids in schools and his wife trained for nursing. He could not get a job like what he had in Nigeria. He made do with the jobs he could find. In all the time he was in the UK, he didn't own his own property. He had a mortgage which would be paid off in 10 more years. But his friends in Nigeria had their own houses and were not in debt to anyone. He said the only benefit he had from living abroad was that his kids had a good education and had good careers ahead of them. But after critically assessing his sojourn in the UK, he said it was a waste of his life. If he had stayed in Nigeria he could have done better. That man does not represent the experience of everyone who migrated to the UK. There are many success stories of migrants who made something awesome out of their lives. However, there are also many sad stories hidden behind the shadows of the good ones. The reason why many people living in diaspora do not want to return to their countries is not because their country of residence abroad is better than their nation in Africa. I discovered that the reason why many cannot return is because of shame. I met a Nigerian in the US who has lived there for 20 years. He confessed to me that he posts nice pictures on his social media pages to make people back home think he's successful. He said he has nothing. He is up to his eyeballs in debt. He is a slave to the system. So many people are too ashamed to return home. Most Africans are materialistic and the first thing they want to see is what you have accumulated and how much money you have made abroad. People will mock you if you return back to your home country to start hustling again. I see people living useless lives abroad. They post nice pictures on socials, they borrow money to travel back to their country for one month, then they are back to the grind to repay their loan 80% of the people who tell you they are successful abroad are living in debt. As a Nigerian I am not used to debt. What I cannot afford, I avoid. I don't care what cars my neighbours drive, I refuse to go into debt to sustain my lifestyle. I am pragmatic. The day I realise I no longer enjoy my stay abroad, I will move back to Africa. Many influencers on socials will not tell you that many people are suffering abroad. I met a man in the UK who owns houses in Lekki but he has three jobs in the UK. He is a big man in Nigeria but a slave abroad. He will work himself to an early grave. That is a detestable life. Africans are materialistic. We don't consider things like purpose and happiness as indices of measurement of a good life. We have a Pharaonic and paganistic philosophy of life which makes us live to acquire material things, even if we have to suffer and live a worthless life. The purpose of your life should be more than showing off your houses and possessions. Your life should be more than making posts on Instagram to make your peers envious. Live a life of purpose. Live life on your own terms. Live for yourself, not to impress people.

Is this legal? A store employee shut and locked the front door because she believed two customers may have taken something from the store. But what does she think she can do about it—just lock them in? I’d record them after calling the police. I don’t think you’re allowed to do what she did.
