“This Experience Will Not Repeat Itself” - Another Presidential Promise fails in less than 24 Hours.
Less than 24 hours after President Tinubu stood at the Jos Plateau State airport on April 2, 2026, and promised the grieving Nigerian citizens, “I promise you that this experience will not repeat itself,” another brutal attack occurred in Nyamgo Gyel, Jos South LGA, resulting in the deaths of several innocent citizens.
Since then, and only a week following that reassuring promise from the President, Nasarawa State has been plunged into grief as the Akyawa and Udege Kasa communities fled for their lives after gunmen killed at least 11 people. Many homes were reduced to ashes, and numerous families remain missing.
In Zamfara State, 150 innocent Nigerians were abducted from the Kurfa Danya and Kurfan Magaji communities in one of the largest mass kidnappings in recent times. On the same day of the Zamfara kidnappings, terrorists in Borno State stormed Chibok, killing four officers and burning down homes.
Yesterday, on Easter Sunday, Benue State was rocked by violence again, with over 17 Nigerians massacred, entire communities left in ruins, and many individuals still unaccounted for. Today, in Kaduna State, several innocent citizens were killed by terrorists inside churches, with many others abducted in the Ariko community of Kachia LGA.
Yet we were told, “This experience will not repeat itself.” This represents a failure of leadership and responsibility, and sadly, Nigerians are paying for it with their lives.
These attackers are not ghostly figures; our inaction emboldens them. How can a President make such a categorical promise and, mere hours later, the nation continues to count the dead across multiple states? The primary responsibility of any government is to protect lives and property; however, this responsibility is failing today. Nigerians are being slaughtered in their homes, in their communities, and in the very places they should feel safest. Even the President did not enter these communities, so who is truly safe in Nigeria?
This is a national emergency. Nigeria is bleeding, and the situation is worsening and increasingly helpless.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

It's incredible that Nigeria's petrol prices - even with new refineries - have risen more than any other African country's despite its huge oil holdings. Nigerian Govt can't seem to manage anything - it never planned for a petrol reserve. Pathetic!

Nigeria has been generating electricity since 1896. That’s 130 years.
Today, in March 2026, the national grid just dropped to 3,940 megawatts. For 220 million people.
South Africa generates over 48,000MW for 60 million people. Egypt has about 59,000MW installed for 110 million.
Nigeria? About 13,000MW installed. But we can only push around 4,000 to 5,000MW through the grid on a good day. The rest just sits there. Wasted.
The grid collapsed 12 times in 2024 alone. 128 transmission towers were destroyed by vandals in the same year. Government spent N8.8 billion just repairing them.
Between 2010 and 2022, NERC recorded at least 222 partial and total grid collapses. That’s roughly one every three weeks for 12 years straight.
Every time the grid collapses, restarting just three power plants (Azura, Delta, and Shiroro) costs Nigeria about $25 million. That’s N42.5 billion. Per collapse. For just three plants.
The power sector owes generation companies N6.8 trillion as of February 2026. Growing by N200 billion every single month. By end of March, it’ll hit N7 trillion.
Of that N6.8 trillion, about N3.3 trillion is owed to gas suppliers. So what did the gas suppliers do? They cut supply. Right now, thermal plants need about 1,630 million standard cubic feet of gas per day. They’re getting 692 million. Less than 43%.
That’s why your light is off right now.
The government approved N4 trillion in bonds to fix it. So far they’ve issued N590 billion. The rest? We’re waiting.
Meanwhile, Nigerians spend about $14 billion every year buying and fueling generators. 22 million generators across the country. Their combined capacity? About 42,000 megawatts. That’s 8 times what the national grid delivers.
We literally have more generator capacity than grid capacity. Think about that.
In 2023, 767 manufacturing companies shut down. 335 more became distressed. 18,000 jobs gone. In the first half of 2025 alone, manufacturers spent N676.6 billion on backup power and still couldn’t meet their needs. Another 18,935 jobs lost.
The World Bank estimates power outages cost Nigeria $29 billion annually. That’s about 10% of GDP. Every year.
This isn’t a power problem. It’s a governance problem.
Egypt added 14,000 megawatts of gas capacity in six years using the same Siemens equipment we’ve been talking about for decades. Ghana fixed its power crisis between 2012 and 2016 and now exports surplus electricity. South Africa just went 300 consecutive days without load shedding after committing to a real recovery plan.
We’ve been “fixing” power since 1999. Every president has had an emergency power plan. We’ve taken over $4 billion in World Bank loans for the power sector. The grid can barely hold 5,000MW. Any more and it literally collapses.
Nigeria cannot be a serious economy running on generators. No country industrialized on backup power.

Yesterday, I explained how seven insurance firms in London shut down one-fifth of the world's oil supply.
Today, Trump may have just made the most aggressive sovereign insurance play in modern history.
Here's what happened and why it matters:
Trump ordered the U.S. Development Finance Corporation to immediately offer political risk insurance and guarantees to all maritime trade through the Gulf. Especially energy. Backed by Navy escorts if needed.
Read that through the lens of what I described yesterday.
The Strait didn't close because of missiles. It closed because the insurance market collapsed. P&I clubs pulled coverage, reinsurers withdrew, and the entire commercial shipping architecture froze.
This move doesn't address the military problem. It addresses the actuarial one.
The DFC is stepping into the void that Lloyd's and the London reinsurance market created when they pulled out. The U.S. government is effectively saying: we will underwrite what the private market won't.
No sovereign has attempted to replace the global marine war risk market in real time during an active conflict. Here's why the structural implications are significant:
1. It challenges Lloyd's dominance.
For centuries, London has been the center of gravity for marine insurance. Lloyd's and its reinsurers controlled pricing, terms, and risk appetite for global shipping.
That concentration is exactly what made the actuarial blockade possible. A handful of firms in one city froze global oil flows.
The DFC offering competitive political risk coverage to all shipping lines is a direct challenge to that architecture. If American-backed insurance proves cheaper and more reliable during crises, shippers may not return to London when the dust settles.
2. It breaks the actuarial blockade.
I said yesterday that China has massive leverage over Iran but zero leverage over Lloyd's. The same was true of every oil-producing and oil-consuming nation watching their economies choke.
This goes around the insurance market entirely. If the DFC covers the voyage and the Navy escorts the tanker, the ships sail. Oil flows. The spreadsheet blockade breaks.
3. It redirects billions in premium revenue.
War risk premiums in the Gulf are currently running at extreme multiples — 3× to 5× pre-conflict rates. Those premiums were flowing to London reinsurers who then pulled coverage anyway.
Now those premiums flow to Washington. At rates the DFC can set below the panicked London market, while still generating substantial returns. The same shippers get cheaper coverage. The revenue just changes continents.
4. It creates a chokepoint within the chokepoint.
The Strait of Hormuz is already the world's most critical energy bottleneck. If the U.S. is both insurer and naval escort, America controls access at two levels: physical security and financial coverage.
No other nation can replicate that. You need the world's dominant navy and a sovereign balance sheet large enough to backstop the risk. Only one country has both.
5. It reassures every stakeholder simultaneously.
Gulf producers were watching exports freeze. Asian and European consumers were watching energy prices spike. Both feared the Iran campaign would wreck their economies.
One announcement addressed all of them: your oil will move, your ships will be covered, and the rates will be reasonable.
Yesterday I described a system with no TARP, no Fed equivalent, no backstop at global scale.
This may be the first attempt to build one in real time, during the crisis itself.
The actuarial blockade just met a sovereign counterparty.
