The administrators of the Tinubu administration are no longer ashamed of being called nepotistic. They arrogantly celebrate the appointments of Yoruba people...

Speaking bluntly: The U.S. economy is run by racketeers. Trump is their CEO.
Almost a decade ago I was the Harvard economist that said that bitcoin was more likely to be worth $100 than 100k. What did I miss? I was far too optimistic about the US coming to its senses about sensible cryptocurrency regulation; why would policymakers want to facilitate tax.

In normal circumstances, with the Bank of England having just cut interest rates, you would expect measures of borrowing costs to be falling across the board. But clearly these are not normal times.

Some observations:. 1. APC was desperately defending 2 seats; LP was MIA. 2. Key opposition parties (PDP/ADC/SDP) had the advantage, but chose to undermine each other. 3. Internal crises in each opposition party weakened the contest. 4. Votes were sold to the highest bidders.
APC is confused and afraid of free and fair elections! 🥸. Keep your eyes on the bye-election in Kaduna State—Basawa, Chikun/Kajuru and Waje. This is the indicative test for 2027.

These elites keep justifying harmful policies. 🥸 . Safety net (sharing spaghetti and rice) is a form of vote-buying as we observed today in various bye-elections. Returning subsidies (petrol, electricity, agricultural, education, health) is better than sharing rice.
In Abuja, Nigeria visiting H.E President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. We had a good discussion on the state of the economy and I shared with him that, whilst my perception is that the ongoing reforms are in the right direction and the economy is now stabilizing, there is a need to focus on

Tinubu’s reforms are a mirage. This packaging (by NOI) is just to get loan disbursements from IMF and World Bank—the loans they can't pay. 🥸. Current external debt ($45.98b) + new approved loans ($26.3b) = $72.28 billion. 2025: Debt to GDP is 50.1%.2023: Debt to GDP was 38.8%.
