TOWARDS A ONE-PARTY STATE, BAT BATOLOGY AND THE YORUBANISATION OF NIGERIA…MOVING NIGERIA TOWARDS A ONE-PARTY STATE BY GRADUALLY DISMANTLING THE PILLARS OF OTHER PARTIES AND SUCKING IN THEIR MEMBERS, INCLUDING RECLONING NIGERIA AND OUR ABUJA IN HIS OWN IMAGE THROUGH UNPARRALELED NEPOTISM AND REGIONALISM. BUT CAN SOMEONE TELL HIM MULTIPARTISM IS BETTER AND THAT NIGERIA BELONGS TO ALL NIGERIANS, AND ABUJA NO BE EKO?
His 100 days of advancing and implementing the Tinubuan economic policies being directed by his neo-colonial masters from the West as manifested in Tinubunomics, BATonomics, Amodanomics, Agberonmics, O’BATnomics, Jagabanomics, Asiwajunomics – all put together, including Tinubuism, Agberoism, O’BATism are worse than Covidnomics and Covidism – and in the end, all these mindless and bestial Owambeganza and -ism instead of economicity are nothing, but delusional agberocity and uneconomic balderdash!

Go ye and purchase fleet of private jets? This is crass insensitivity, David. The gospel of the kingdom worth preaching henceforth is THE TOTAL GOSPEL FOR THE TOTAL MAN!

Introduction
PHILOSOPHY OF CORRUPTION & THE PHILOSOPHY OF MUMU
Just as I was about to sign off, I fell into a trance and therein saw a confessor and a Roman Catholic priest arguing over something during an evening confession preparatory to the Sunday Holy Communion.
It looks the Reverend Father told the confessor to do penance and afterwards embark on restitution, but the notorious criminal kneeling before him chose instead to bribe the priest who threatened to call fire and brimstone from above upon the notorious fugitive from the Yibom country in the Lower Niger, warning him that unless he repents and carries out a complete and proper restitution, he shall not make eternity, including all the corrupt politicians, political officials, their cronies together with all the greedy men and women of God in Magomago Republic who have severally compromised their faith by wining and dining with the corrupt and murderous politicians and political officials - collecting transport money, project money such as money to establish centres, foundations (NGOs) and money to build church hospitals; others in Magomago Republic whom the priest said would not make heaven include all the journalists in the Coastland Press Hub who have sold their consciences and all the Coastlanders, pretending hitherto to be conscientious activists, but have now been exposed as mere BABAs ( Bread and Butter Activists) and incurable ethnicists, who have suddenly lost their voices since May 29 all because their son through magomago-jibiti is now in the glass house as the kia taker (*care taker) in the Presidency; and not left out, are all the ki le jeku (?) - FOOD IS READY-COME CHOP-KOBO-KOBO public intellectuals who had so reduced themselves to mere Almajirai at the corridors of power, crying wolf and obstructing justice on behalf of their friend, some of these COME CHOP intellectuals in the past had had their common ordinary cooking utensils bought for them by O’BAT, Saphira of the Magomago Republic, including leaving off politicians and political officials to survive the hard times and the acute famine and poverty of their households despite their much vaunted literary prowess, and are now traversing the land to blindly defend their benefactor, whose stolen mandate was recently legitimised in the Conconbility judgment delivered by the Pent Kabukabu judges:
Enter, Rev. Father Otapiapia (listening and taking the confessions of the roguish-‘prayer warrior’ politician, now chief priest of the Red Occult Chambers (ROC), otherwise known in all the nations as THE HOUSE OF SHARING MONEY): Godswill, you must do sacrament and confess your many sins, otherwise you will end up in hellfire.
Brother Obot: E ye-o…Abasi – mbok.
Fr. Otapiapia: Keep chanting Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa, 10 million times before you leave the Confession for your home.
Bro Obot: 10….?
Fr. Otapiapia: Sharrap, Godswill. You must begin to get serious for once…
Brother Obot: Take 350 trillion dollars and let me ko, man of Kod (God).
Fr. Otapiapia: Be not deceived, God is not…you must start your confession immediately or thunder fire you!
Brother Obot: Man of Kot, ba thunder…I done start; yaa, yaa kupa, yaku pa…
Fr. Otapiapia (cuts in): Not ya…mea…
Brother Obot: Wayayi (Wa la hi), dis confession haro...anyway, make man pikin begin before I hear gbru..gbru…from yeven-o:
Yaku pa, yaku pa, nyamiri yama yu makupa…yaku pa, yakupa, yama Danjuma kupa….
O ya, ya, yaa kuku papa…yakuku Mama…Papa, yakuku BAT; yakukuku O’BAT
Ya ma allowance ina ya na account na…Ya, ya, ya kuku Abass, ya prayers in ya na pigeonholes na…man of kot, what of others…na me one?
Exeunt, Fr. Otapiapia, leaving Brother Obot to chanting his sacrament and using the rosary to make the sign of the Cross each time he completes a session with the light gradually fading and the curtains on both ends, drawing to a close.
And gradually dissolving into space as I was coming out of that trance was a bugle on my hands which every civilian in that trance including children and young persons were holding to their mouths, blowing them with relish and with such deafening sounds echoing throughout the land as the XL Bully of ECOWAS was captured with his eyes rolling from side to side like an ensnared rabbit!
EPILOGUE
Public officials putting public money in their private accounts is as old as Nigeria.
So, why do you think all Niger Delta so-called “warlords” are all multi-billionaires now, apart from their involvement in illegal bunkering?
And why do think salaries of our uniformed men and women are never paid on time?
But is it because Betta is a woman and a minority?
The fight against corruption can never be won by the scientificity of selectivity, and crying wolf from the rainforest to the savanna for the sake of one’s friend is obstruction of justice, and obstruction of justice is an arrestable offence.

FIGHTING INSECURITY IN NIGERIA & GOVERNMENT OF KLEPTOCRATS, CRIMINOCRATS AND PLUTOCRATS
The fight to secure Nigeria is official criminals fighting unofficial criminals. This is what is called CRIMINOCRACY!
THE MEANING OF CRIMINOCRACY
Government of the criminals, by the criminals, and for the criminals. All over the world, it looks honour and integrity in governance no longer matter, nor visionary and purposeful leadership, but what seems to matter now is non-issue based, non-ideological politicking, short termism, lying as a statecraft, a lack of honour and integrity, untruth and disinformation, where the leadership are concerned not about governance and services to their nations, but about the next election, headlines - sensational headlines - and criminals with stupendously dirty money or ill-gotten wealth - men and women of very shady deals and past, all having blood in their hands, have hijacked power and democratic institutions and spaces. No wonder, like never before, there are crises upon crises, youth restiveness in the nations and peoples the world over are now moaning, groaning and gnashing their teeth, consequent upon mass exodus of people across international boundaries.
