Let’s grant you that your government hates you.
Now, where does it place the (white) people who install these governments that hate you?
Do you think they hate you more or less?
Do you even know how your governments are formed and what happens to the governments that don’t hate you?
Once again, you don’t know white people.
This is exactly what I was teaching yesterday. Your white masters have conditioned your mind to always associate evil with your image. That’s why you are finding it hard to accept that they hate you.

Your hate is misdirected. You should hate your rulers for not providing safe and convenient public transportation. Everyone, whether poor or not, should have access to a convenient means of public transportation.
Poverty is not a personal failing.

The US Government Goes After "Fraudsters" While Ignoring The Ones In Washington: The Spearhead Reacts.
US Vice President JD Vance recently put out a video purporting to convey his pledge to protect American citizens from "fraudsters and illegal aliens".
In reality, the entire clip was 1 minute and 7 seconds of uninterrupted dog-whistling intended to misdirect the growing rage of the increasingly discontented US working classes at the most convenient group of usual scapegoats, while completely sidestepping the actual fraud taking place at the very highest levels in the US.

The United States Government is fighting “fraud” everywhere else except the White House.
My reply to JD Vance re his Anti-Fraud Task Force.

What do you mean “TS Academy has over 90 staff members and N26k is not paying anyone's salary?”
I’m not against charity, but let it be charity. And don’t gilt trip people with this defense of yours. The last time I checked, nobody is forced to do charity.
If you are offering someone a scholarship worth over 400k, but they have to pay 20k, or if you like, 1k, to activate it, for a program you are packaging as “helping the vulnerable,” how is it different from people who would call you that you have won 10 million but you have pay 10k to receive it?
If it’s a discount you are offering, then state that it is a discount. Discount is not charity. It doesn’t matter if it’s 90% discount. Discount is deigned to help the seller more than the buyer if you understand business intelligence. When MTN offers “buy 1G and get 1 free” to customers, it is not charity. MTN is actually looking to gain more revenue, rather than lose.
Once again, if you are going to have to start explaining charity, then stop doing it, because no one is forced to do charity. But we all know why people can’t stop forcing their charity on others even after complaining that people are ungrateful. That’s precisely because the whole of idea philanthropy benefits them more than those they pretend to help.
A few misconceptions about the Don Jazzy x TS Academy Scholarship:
- Hidden Fees:
The application fee is not hidden. Don Jazzy mentioned it in his video, and it is clearly stated six times on the scholarship website. But it's clear that many people didn't watch the video or even visited the website. The tuition itself is free.
- 26k Application Fee:
The application fee will be discounted and will not be the standard TS Academy fee.
- Classes:
TS Academy classes are held live, and recordings are made available afterward.
- Pocket watchers.
TS Academy has over 90 staff members and employs 150 students annually as student moderators. You are doing mathematics for hundreds/thousands of registration, but what is leaving your own pocket for 3-6 months course is just N26k. N26k is not paying anyone's salary.

Did I not tell you? It’s all fugazi. A desperate attempt for the Trump administration to appear like it knows what it’s doing ahead the of the midterm, and another construction towards new foreign policy and immigration laws.
Some random Ugandan, Rwanda and Kenyan names, while chat language sounds West Africa. No one is sure the names and screenshots are authentic. They might as well originate from one of those TikTok accounts trolling “scammers.” And of course, they must throw a Chinese in the mix.
Very basic.
The FBI on one side is busy recycling photos from local law enforcement operations and passing them off as results of the recent set up Anti Fraud Task Force.
The most fraudulent government in the world pretending to fight fraud. You gotta have a laugh
Today, @USAttyPirro, together with major federal law enforcement and in concert with interagency partners, announced actions taken by the Department of Justice’s Scam Center Strike Force to secure America against cyber and cryptocurrency investment scams perpetrated by Transnational Criminal Organizations (TCOs) groups.
The Strike Force announced charges against six Africa-based scammers, with connections to Southeast Asia and China, which targeted Americans with fake Nonfungible Token (NFT) investment scams.

No matter how you look at it, a scholarship opportunity should never require a registration fee. Once registration fee enters the equation, then it’s simply Ponzi.
The announcement will draw more people than usual for registration, and if 10,000 people register and 100 people are selected, plus and minus, charity funds have been recovered.
You are using the opportunity to boost sales, which means more revenue.
There’s nothing wrong with that, but it is not charity. It may be charity from your donor’s POV, if they haven’t thought about it this way, but it’s definitely not charity from the establishment.

All this, and you still won’t be prime minister.
Slavery was an evil in which people from every continent and region participated. We should be honest about the whole history, not select the parts that are politically convenient today, especially given Britain's leading role in ending the transatlantic slave trade.
If Caribbean countries are asking Britain for a formal apology for Britain’s role in the transatlantic slave trade, will they also be asking the same of the descendants of African kingdoms, rulers and merchants who captured, sold and profited from the trade?
On demands for reparations, whether through cash or debt relief, we have been down this track before. Twenty-five years ago, Jubilee 2000, Drop the Debt and Make Poverty History argued that cancelling the debts of poorer countries would give them a fresh start. More than $100 billion of debt was eventually written off, but many of those countries have since built up even bigger debts. Labour are already spending too much on Britain's welfare state, now is not the time for Andy Burnham to be providing global welfare.
There is no reason British taxpayers today should be held financially responsible for things that happened generations before any of us were born. And I have even less patience for political elites in commonwealth countries who don’t know how to make their own citizens prosperous now looking for another opportunity to blame Britain.
As Prime Minister, Andy Burnham should be Britain’s greatest defender. Instead, he is writing articles saying we need to confront our history (as if we haven't done enough of that) and considering another formal historical apology. Tony Blair already expressed Britain’s deep sorrow and regret for our role in the slave trade nearly twenty years ago. There is no need to do so again.
This is all another navel-gazing distraction. The Commonwealth should be looking forward, not endlessly backwards. That means economic partnerships to make us all richer and deeper military and security cooperation against common threats. If every Commonwealth summit becomes an exercise in presenting Britain with demands for cash then we need to start asking if it is worth the effort.

“Not paying attention to politics” works when you’re a teenager, but it’s an embarrassingly privileged and immature stance as an adult. Grow up.

Who told you that the U.S. stands for human rights and free elections, or that it is against corruption?
Some of you are still very far.

When you try to educate Nigerians about external dog whistling and stereotyping of their society, for example this FBI case, they would automatically assume you are a fraudster who is protecting fraud.
I always laugh because I know that fraudsters are usually the first to accuse others of fraud.
I don’t know who taught them that co-signing this dog whistling or stereotyping means they abhor fraud , or that it is somehow the way to solve fraud in their society.
Anyway, you will hear from ICE. Shebi na una dey look for American VISA up and down. You will also hear more from the global payment systems, which are controlled by the U.S. shebi na una dey find remote jobs too.
Very senseless people.
