Thank you for joining us this morning. We appreciate your time Thank you for having All right, so let's start off with this one the the federal government vows to unveil perpetrators of Kaduna and the platoon attacks now This is not the first time we're hearing the federal government or would this be the second time from the president or the federal government being shocked to you know condemning the attack and now they're vowing that they will unveil and And it probably might just sound like some kind of good news, but what are your thoughts? They have to say something so they are saying something do I believe it? No, I don't The reason is simple. We are in this state of insecurity because of what I personally See as complacency or being complicit directly or indirectly We all know how security works. We all know how things are done Mr. L. Rufai has said more than should be said. We know who these people are We know where the camps are we know who they are funding agencies are we know all these things He said that much he didn't say it privately it wasn't a tapped Conversation was a public conversation and then what has been done about it nothing absolutely nothing One of our my friends told a story in delta states where You know these people got into the mother's farm and they ravaged the whole farm And when he went to the dpo the dpo simply told him madam, sorry There's not much I can do about it They went to the commissioner of police and the commissioner of police kind of um, you know like um Rebuke the dpo. You shouldn't have said so but what happened at the end of the day It's like, okay, let's go and see what has been done And then they looked at the thing and they're okay. We pay them compensation of what 70 000 And I ask a question somebody comes to your farm rampages ravages everything and you cannot do anything about it Why is that so there isn't that you see we have an efficient effective military system in this country Extremely competent, but the military training to the best of my knowledge is has a shot has has um has uh A challenge in the training in the sense that they take orders And they mind the body language of whoever gives the orders I think that we've not been able to get the body language that says smooth them out And I am praying god that will manage ourselves and get through this and let Nigerians open their eyes You know and know who each person is Not from what they say. I have a new saying today go back 20 years That is what every Nigerian should do go back 20 years and interrogate who wants to be your president Go back 20 years and interrogate who wants to be your governor Go back 20 years. Look at the president's temperament. Look at his character. Look at his personality Look at his priorities. Look at the things he's done in the past. His antecedents go back 70 years 20 years that's got to be the new hashtag Read the things he's put in the in the in the papers or in the media about setting issues Whether it is about security or about his tribe or about his religion or about just go back 20 years and I want to Pray the media to take this as an assignment to dig back 20 years minimum 20 25 years but 20 is enough so that you can tell Who a person is it's just like the matter you were discussing about marriage and things like that You get into a relationship with a person Who is just trying to manage you for a few Weeks or months and then marries you and then you start to say. Oh my god. No a man is who he is Go back 20 years find out his relationship with his family Find out his relationship with the friends he's had in the past Find out marriage is a serious. Anyway, that's not a topic. Let me stay on what you have said But as Zika, yeah, I took it. It's good that you know, you're coming back to the issue eventually We probably might just get to that point where you are. But what is difficult? What has it become so difficult for the federal government or the government itself to take action? No, it's not difficult. It's not at all difficult. They are not interested But that's what it seems it seems like He's not what it seems. Let me tell you something very easy two things number one a court of competent jurisdiction declared these people terrorists Look at your papers today today today today How is government referring to them? Think about it A court has declared them terrorists Look at the papers today today today. The papers that you're looking at the headlines of today. How is that same government? Referring to these people Is it not still banned it? What does that tell you about the mindset of the government to these people? For as long as they are banned it. They are setting rules of military engagement. You cannot apply But if they are terrorists We know what to do and you are allowed because the work crimes criminals are still there They'll call you back 20 years after you've left the office But if you're you can stand on the ground that these are terrorists There are things you can do so as are today What is the mindset of your government of our government? These guys are not yet terrorists. They are still banned it. So what does that tell you about their dispositions? All right, mr. Andra Aitok Let's Leave the issue of integrity for one moment because if we keep on talking about it will sound like broken records because we know all the Issues and them we similarly and not really having the body language Don't want to you know do what is needful But let's talk about them education now. You know, it's been two months since February the 14th Valentine's day ASU had been on strike. It's been over about 60 days or so You know, but from what we hear now, they are in the knees daily independent captains or captains is this way federal government prefers Or profess Politiqued to resolving ASU strike. That's what the union is saying Blames nigerians as 1.7 million students sleep at home slams federal government over new institutions While 104 Vacities remain short What's really going on in our education system specifically with the never-rending issue the federal government and ASU? It's painful That We have a government That really does not understand that education is more precious to this country than oil We have a government that does not understand that the way of the future of the federal republic of nigeria is education We have a government that does not appreciate how much education can bring to the table in the current global happenings We have a government that politics Is The thing for them Are not governance They have drawn a fine line between governance and politics where Governance is a distraction to them while politics is what you know, that is why you can have A train incident Where numbers are starting to come out the facts and figures are starting to come out Which questions the administration procedure of the natural railway cooperation? Which questions so many things about our administration and our policies? And while that is still on My my my friend and brother somebody for whom I have great respect for obvious reasons Is declaring for the presidency which I don't agree with You know, I can understand. I I I have been able to get into the mindset and see the frustrations and everything But you see he's unfortunate that this has happened at a time like this Okay Now when you put all these things together It just shows that education is a distraction to politicians And it can wait It can wait until they get their mandate. What is important to them is their mandate Just get back to power get back to power Service is not the essence for seeking public office. It is power grab state capture and you see I always say something and I want to end on this note If you think that it is wrong for a cat to back Or you want a dog to meow The problem is not with the dog or with the cat It is with you that should have the intellect to know that a Was back And a cat will always meow as we are heading to 2023 The man who is in there for the enterprise when he gets in there, he will do it A man who is there for the service when he gets in there, he will serve What are you doing as an individual to profile between the two so that your life your estate Will be managed by the most competent and not with the most Endowed to capture I think that Nigerians should stop blaming politicians and wake up and take up their race their civic responsibilities All right, is it can you I took quickly? This is quite worrying because the Empire that saddled with the responsibility Of conducting elections have raised an alarm and they are saying that over Forty-five percent of PVC's are invalid. We're looking at 1.3 million They're about that figure and because the process of cleaning up the register I mean, how did we get to this point? They're also saying that this would be a reason of I mean the reason for all of this would be the issue of ignorance or probably some illegalities that's going on How do we even get out of this 1.3 million? That's a lot Okay, um, I I I'm an architect. So I'm a process person Question number one is how do people get registered? There's no question of ignorance. We have trained people that go to ask questions and capture So The answer for me is as clear as day complicity That is that how they are going to deal with that. I don't know in terms of they are people because You ask me to come and register. I come and stand on the line You ask me what's your name? I tell you what's your age? I tell you you ask all the questions and then you input all those things into your system You ask me to bring my thumb. I put it there. I finish putting my thumb You want me to put my face to be captured with ever I give you everything you want and I go home And you said oh your registration was faulty. My question is number one How do I know that my registration was faulty and number two, what did I do wrong? I can tell So the problem is on one hand. There's a solution The solution is that you had captured my contacts Please send an instant message In everywhere possible to the people affected That your registration had a challenge early enough Please could you go back to the nearest Inet office to rectify? The reason is this if these people do not know that they have a problem And they know that they had registered On that day, they are going to go To the different registration points And then there's going to be confusion and people are going to be disenfranchised So lucky enough Inek has done a great job by cleaning up the register early enough Identifying the problems early enough And letting the public early enough They should now go ahead and publish and send to affected locations where the challenges are And set of special desks for rectification This can be done within a month or two So the news should be followed by immediate action If for any reason they have challenge with funding They should make that known immediately Contact the national Assembly And we that are we are partners with Inek The Nigeria first project the CDC the Yaga Africa These are all the people that are partners with Inek To bring it to the public to take it to the national assembly to network with them to sensitize the people like you are doing now And because of what you have just said like you are doing now People are now going to be asked please can you go back to Inek portal and see if you are affected This information has will do Nigeria a lot of good Inek means to call the media the influencers Inform them to network with them call the faith-based organizations to please in the next one two weeks Every church leader every month should say please go and check this way because there were problems Let's not dwell on the problems. Let's not go dwell on who made it Inek should go in-house solve their problem and then Nigerians should go at least three to four months to election Everybody should know number one that their PVC is good and number two the exact place They are going to vote. So on that day, there's no confusion All right on the final notes Namistan. I talk very quickly as we wrap all of this up Let's talk about the remember the pension fraud and the police are sorry the ex-director has been asked to reform the 22.9 Billion and he his Joe term has been affirmed for six months. What do you really think? 22 billion Out of how many Six months four there about Six months you come back You roll your life You probably decide not to be in Nigeria again forever change everything put pressure on a foreign exchange Check out live your life How did he take 22 billion plus plus? That is what should interest us our systems and processes technology has come to you know The moment we start like guy, let me end on this note. I don't want to talk about that guy Please let everybody go and get registered to vote Go and get registered to vote join a political party Don't buy those fears. Oh nothing can change. It has to be a PC or pdp Oh if the time is too short those are the lies from the pit of hell There are things happening in the past two weeks I've been they've seen me all over this country. Legos are buja young people vibrant people are taking up things that will shake this whole country God bless president Buhari for the electoral act I wish I could do a synthesis and analysis of what we have today your vote will count Go and get registered Mr president won with less than about 15 million votes as up today I cannot show you that the activation that we have of the young people We have over 30 million as of today They may not all head in one direction But I want to tell you that go and get registered if you know you're loved by your people Go and pick a form and contest take a small party I will always say I recommend ADC because that's what's taking today as a third force I read In the next two three months not two three months in the next 30 to 45 days You'll be shocked what is going to happen in Nigeria The meeting we had in legos some days back was just an eye opener the entertainers Have decided to come on board imagine a man like boner boy a man like whiskey a man like devido a man like two-face Look at all these influencers In Hollywood actors coming together and telling their fans Go get registered We are going to go into this vehicle and they have been going around looking for the vehicle that will accommodate The the the the young people that will accommodate their Their concerns and hand over the country back to them Today they have almost made a decision on that vehicle and don't let it go too late Don't buy that lie of oh the time is too short. Nothing is too short Don't buy that. Oh outside of pdp and apc. There's no other those are lies of those institutional, you know state capture entrepreneurs Please go and get registered the guy who stole 22 billion He will not be able to steal such money again come 2023 and Nigeria will be good Anybody that tries to tell you things otherwise don't buy it.
