Good People, why are ALL Nigerian politicians meeting these days outside Nigeria? From APC to PDP to LP to all, every weekend, all the important rumours now emanate from London. In other words, these men coordinate in Abuja to travel to London and have meetings. Fellow citizens, these meetings diminish Nigeria. Yes, they could be discussing extremely important national issues in hotel rooms bugged by spy networks.
Statistically, Nigeria has 3 key men with one to become a president next year, and three of them were meeting in London hotels this week. Do not bet that London has not created a database for them, chronicling their playbooks ahead of 2023.
Nigeria does not value “information” and ”knowledge” in an age where both drive competitiveness of nations.

Comment 1: They swept the room for bugs before saying the opening prayer….lol.
But seriously, do we take espionage seriously? Wasn’t there some talk about data from the gifted AU building been transmitted to some location in Asia? It didn’t seem to bother anyone, so why should politicians care about “walls that hear”?
Comment 2: The trend is really worrisome.
I’m just wondering when politicians from the UK, US or other countries will come to Nigeria for their private meetings.
More annoying for me is the fact that in 2022, discussions about Africa development are still consistently being held outside the continent. We certainly need collaborations and strategic partnerships but not handouts. We have to look inward for homegrown solutions to our problems.
Comment 3: I would say they are not technologically conscious neither are their team members or advisors tech savvy enough to know the risks involved in holding important meetings in unsecured locations. If anyone successfully eavesdrop on that meeting, he is a rich man because he can sell that information to opposition.
