Money Anoints in Nigeria As The Politician Spreads [Video]

Obi Cubana, this is how to do it – you spread it and keep your job as a politician. Let me leave the name and the constituency of this politician to avoid unnecessary distraction. But one thing you should know is this: spreading money is an evolving entertainment in Nigeria as poverty scales, and all the laws the central bank has put in the books, criminalizing the behaviour, have failed.

As those men and women LOOK up for the naira manna to fall, the politician smiles for another 4 years. He knows what works – stomach infrastructure because you need that before you will notice if there are schools, roads and light. As always, if Nigeria did not elect Buhari as president, historians would have anointed him as the greatest leader who could have fixed Nigeria because he could have stopped many crazy things.

To be fair here: Obi Cubana said he spread money to polish his brand. The politician is spending to improve his electability. If you check,  the destination is the same: money anoints in Nigeria.

Today, Naira hit N522/$. It used to be different as this photo below can show.
