Every morning, a Nigerian man in Lagos puts on a suit made in Guangzhou and leaves his house with his ASUS laptop (made in Taipei) and his Redmi smartphone (designed in Beijing). He lives near a Lagos Blue Line station at Mile 2, so he walks to the station and boards a modern EMU train to Ikeja. The station, the rail line and the EMU were all built by China Civil Engineering Construction Company. At Ikeja, he gets into a BRT bus made by Yutong or Zhontong (made in Zhenzhou and Liaocheng respectively) and spends his 20-minute commute on TikTok (HQ: Beijing) via his Redmi phone using his Oraimo airpods (made in Shenzhen). He arrives at Mobolaji Johnson Railway Station (built by CCECC) and boards his modern, air-conditioned DMU train (assembled in Kajola, Ogun State under the management of CCECC) to begin his journey to Ibadan on the Lagos-Ibadan SGR (built by CCECC). On the way to Ibadan, using his MTN 4G network built almost entirely on a Huawei (Shenzhen) and ZTE (Shenzhen) infrastructure backbone, he opens Twitter and proceeds to passionately insult me for disagreeing with the notion that China poses an external threat to his Nigerian life, and that western partnership is what would give him a better life.

@aniagu_eneh @ARISEtv Not Africans. The real challenge is that so many things go unchallenged once it puts on the garment or religion - Christianity, Islam, or other religions.

@bernaron @ARISEtv It is the function of a responsive government to curb fundamentalist tendencies; be it from Islam or Christianity before it snowballs to religious hostilities.

@olukayj @ARISEtv When it comes to Christianity people can say anything, do anything and expect us to be quiet. I dare them to say or do the same of Islam.

GOOD NEWS: Yesterday night, bandits attacked Kwargaba community in Wurno LGA, Sokoto State. Fortunately, no residents were harmed or abducted. As vigilantes and Soldiers from Marnona responded quickly after receiving the community’s alert and successfully repelled the attack. They k*lled two of the bandits and arrested three others. Kudos to the Nigerian Army for this commendable effort. The residents are grateful and appreciate their swift and decisive response. @Ahmedaliyuskt @BBCAfrica @ReutersAfrica @___Bils @Belshagy @MFaarees_ @flexiblenancy @_hafsat_paki

What Oseni does is not new in global journalism. Internationally respected anchors like Christiane Amanpour, Stephen Sackur of BBC’s Hardtalk, and CNN’s Jake Tapper are known for grilling world leaders, cutting through rhetoric, and demanding evidence. But in Nigeria, where political arrogance often thrives on unchallenged narratives, such firmness is often mistaken for hostility. The real issue is not Oseni’s tone; it is the fragile ego of the Nigerian political elite. Many public officials in this country have not learned to separate personal pride from public responsibility. They come into interviews expecting journalists to worship them, not question them. They treat tough questions as insults instead of opportunities to clarify their positions. Some even demand that journalists send questions in advance, a practice that undermines spontaneity and shields them from accountability. So, when they meet someone like Oseni, who refuses to play by those rules, they interpret professionalism as provocation. But journalism, by its nature, is meant to discomfort the comfortable and comfort the afflicted. That is its moral duty. It is not about how warmly a question is phrased, but how truthfully it is pursued. If a public servant cannot handle inquiry, then perhaps they have no business serving the public.

Leadership is a sacred agreement between a leader and his people, and it must be stated that a leader must learn to honor every promise made to the people, as it is a commitment unto death. Before the people demand accountability, every leader must develop and demonstrate a higher level of accountability in all their dealings. A leader must always prioritize the sufferings of his people, as exemplified by President de Gaulle, who deliberately fled his presidential palace during the 1968 riots to avoid bloodshed. This is a hallmark of leadership, constantly prioritizing the people. In contrast, the handling of the EndSARS protests in Nigeria did not demonstrate the same level of consideration for human life. Accountability is about holding a leader to their words and moral conduct. The recent controversy surrounding Angela Reyna, the Deputy British Prime Minister, who is facing a possible ouster for underpaying taxes, is a testament to the importance of accountability. However, it would be unrealistic to compare the level of accountability in the UK to that in Nigeria. In this piece, I demand some level of accountability from President Tinubu based on his unfulfilled promises. Firstly, regarding Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), after the removal of the fuel subsidy on inauguration day, President Tinubu touted CNG as a tool to cushion the hardship caused by the increase in fuel prices. On October 22, 2022, he reportedly advised Nigerians to purchase CNG, stating that a liter of petrol could be purchased at N1,000, while the equivalent of a liter of petrol in CNG could be had for N200. However, what President Tinubu failed to disclose was that the N200 CNG rate was subsidized, and the subsidy would be removed by September 2025. As reported by The Punch, the price of CNG has now increased to over N450 per standard cubic meter. This raises questions about the leadership's commitment to saving Nigerians. How will motorists who have converted their cars to CNG cope with this increase? Furthermore, during his engagements with labor leaders, President Tinubu consistently assured that the refineries owned by the NNPC would work to reduce imports of petroleum products. However, it has become apparent that the refineries are not functioning, and the NNPC is seeking an additional $60 billion for expansion. This is despite the fact that the government has failed to account for the initial $3 billion investment. Additionally, while President Tinubu celebrated the launch of the Dangote refinery, which has helped to increase local refining capacity, the government's decision to increase the price of petroleum products refined locally with a 5% tax to take effect in Jan 2026 will only exacerbate the suffering of Nigerians. With the multiple taxation, heightened borrowings, and increased prices, it begs the questions: How will Nigerians cope? When will Nigerians truly feel hope? When will the suffering be over? Is your life better now than it was in 2015?
