Vanity and Waste Tinubu’s N39bn ICC Renovation and the Shame of Extravagance

At a time when Nigerians are groaning under the weight of inflation, food insecurity, joblessness, and decaying infrastructure, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s decision to spend ₦39 billion renovating the International Conference Centre (ICC), Abuja, and then renaming it after himself is a stunning act of self-indulgence and tone-deaf leadership.

The ICC was originally constructed in 1991 by Gen. Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida at a cost of just ₦240 million. Adjusted for over three decades of inflation, the cost of building a brand new, state-of-the-art conference centre today would be between ₦25 billion and ₦30 billion. That the government spent ₦39 billion merely to renovate the old one without major expansion or technological overhaul exposes just how bloated and questionable the expenditure truly is.

More insultingly, Babangida never named the centre after himself, even though he initiated and completed it. Tinubu, however, after refurbishing it, decided to stamp his name on it converting a national landmark into a personal monument. It reeks of egotism and disrespect for public trust.

The ICC project is only one in a disturbing pattern of vanity-driven and excessive spending under this administration.

The Lagos to Calabar Coastal Highway, an ambitious 700-kilometre project, is has been awarded at staggering costs of ₦15 trillion, with only about 30 kilometres completed so far. It has displaced communities, triggered public outrage, and remains a drain on already overstretched national resources.

Adding to the spree, the presidency recently acquired a new Airbus A330 aircraft for $100 million, despite an already oversized presidential fleet. At a time when the naira is battered and millions cannot afford transport fare, the government is buying luxury jets.

Other wasteful allocations include:
   •   ₦5 billion to renovate Dodan Barracks, the President’s Lagos residence
   •   ₦4 billion for the Vice President’s Ikoyi residence
   •   ₦21 billion to complete the new official residence of the Vice President
   •   ₦5 billion for a presidential yacht, smuggled into the 2023 supplementary budget

To the government’s credit, the minimum wage issue has been resolved, and workers are receiving their new pay. But this gain is overshadowed by a mountain of unpaid pensions, leaving retirees in penury, and the unfulfilled agreement with ASUU, which remains a bull in a china shop threatening to plunge the university system into fresh chaos.

The administration claims to be building a legacy. But legacy is not about plastering one’s name on public buildings or cruising on billion-naira yachts. True legacy lies in reviving industries tackling insecurity and building new legacies anchored on inclusion, accountability, and shared prosperity.

At a time like this, every naira must count. Nigeria cannot afford to spend like a wealthy nation while borrowing to survive.

This is not responsible leadership.
It is reckless indulgence.
And Nigeria deserves better.

Ah, Nigeria! Sometimes life throws a punch so hard, even the strongest hearts stagger. And on July 30, 2024, we were all knocked breathless. Onyeka Onwenu — our Elegant Stallion, our national treasure, our voice of hope — took her final, unexpected bow at 72.

Chai! If you ever met Onyeka, even once, you would understand why her death felt like a personal betrayal by the universe. Born on January 31, 1952, in the heart of Obosi, Anambra State, Onyeka’s story was pure magic — the kind that legends are made of. This woman didn’t just live; she blazed. Music, movies, activism, politics — anywhere you turned, her spirit was there, shining so bright it was almost blinding.

Her voice? Oh, that voice! It wasn't just sound — it was therapy, rebellion, love, and prayer all rolled into one. Hits like “One Love” and “Choices” didn’t just top charts; they climbed into our souls and built permanent homes. Onyeka didn’t just sing; she prophesied unity and healing with every note. That’s why calling her the "Elegant Stallion" wasn’t just hype — it was a sacred title. She moved with the grace of royalty and the strength of a warrior.

But the curtains came down faster than anyone could have ever imagined.

It was a beautiful evening — the kind of night where you think the world is finally at peace. Onyeka was the special guest performer at the grand 80th birthday bash of Stella Okoli, the powerhouse founder of Emzor Pharmaceuticals. Trust Onyeka now — she showed up looking radiant, a goddess wrapped in flowing emerald green lace, her smile wide, her voice clear like the morning sun after a storm.

She took the mic, and the crowd? Electrified! She sang, she danced lightly, she teased the audience with that playful glint in her eye. Everything felt right — until it didn’t.

Witnesses say it was during her third song — one of her signature anthems — that she suddenly paused. A slight stagger at first, almost like a dance move gone rogue. Then a collapse. Flat out. Gasps tore through the hall. It was like time stood still — people screaming, chairs crashing, someone frantically calling for help.

Medical professionals stationed nearby — praise God — rushed to her aid immediately. She was whisked away to Reddington Hospital in Victoria Island, Lagos, lights flashing, prayers flying.

But fate had already written a different ending.

At the hospital, Onyeka Onwenu was pronounced dead.

Cause of death? A sudden, massive heart attack. Just like that. No long sickness. No goodbyes. One moment, she was thrilling us; the next, she was gone. Nigeria wept — and honestly, we’re still weeping.

But you know the most beautiful, bittersweet part? Onyeka saw this coming in a way. No, not the when — but the how. Back in 2021, she wrote a raw, heartfelt piece that almost reads like a love letter to her friends and fans about how she wanted to be celebrated when her time came.

No fanfare. No national drama. No endless funeral rites. Onyeka wanted peace.

> “Celebrate me with prayers, a lunch or dinner afterwards. Share jokes about me and laugh. Make merriment, then go about your business. Celebrate me while I’m alive, not when I’m gone and can’t hear a thing!” — those were her words.

And her family — bless their hearts — honored every syllable of her wish.

On August 30, 2024, one month after that devastating day, Onyeka was quietly laid to rest at Ikoyi Cemetery, Lagos. No loud ceremonies, no extravagant burial trains. Just her close family, a handful of intimate friends, and a quiet goodbye under a cool Lagos sky. Her resting place was draped in simplicity — white roses, a touch of gold — just the way she would have loved.

But let’s be real — how do you bury a force of nature like Onyeka Onwenu?

You don’t.

Because Onyeka wasn’t just a singer. She wasn’t just an actress, a TV personality, or a politician. She was a movement. An idea. A rallying cry for justice, equality, truth, and unity.

In the '80s and '90s, while others were playing safe, Onyeka was out there, using her platform to fight for women’s rights, better governance, human dignity. She even took on political roles — remember her stint at the National Centre for Women Development? She was never afraid to speak her mind, even when the powers-that-be frowned.

She lived loud. She lived proud. She lived true.

And that’s why her death cut deep. Not just because we lost a superstar, but because we lost a symbol of what Nigeria could be — strong, beautiful, brave, and unapologetic.

Today, her music still plays. Her films still make us cry and laugh. Her speeches still ignite the fire in young activists' hearts. And every time someone dares to dream boldly, to sing truth to power, to live with purpose — that’s Onyeka Onwenu living on.

She may have taken her final bow, but trust me, the echoes of her legacy will ring for generations.

Rest well, Elegant Stallion.
You rode life’s storms with dignity. You sang life’s tragedies with tenderness.
And now, you’ve ridden into eternity — still shining, still fearless, still Onyeka.

BREAKING NEWS: The Lagos High Court sitting in Ikoyi has sentenced jeweller Uzondu Precious Chimaobi to four years in prison for rejecting the Naira and accepting US Dollars as legal tender.

Tosin Eniolorunda, the founder of Moniepoint, is a wealthy young man.

He will be 40 this year and should be unarguably one of the richest, brightest young minds of my generation.

According to unofficial estimates, his stake at Moniepoint is worth over $100 million.

But he was not always this wealthy; running and founding Monie Point changed his life.

Prior to 2017, before Moniepoint was founded, Tosin was just a tech entrepreneur who ran a software consulting company, and he was living at 1004 Estate in Lagos at that time.

What Tosin’s consulting company does is simple: provide a software solution that Nigerian banks use for their day-to-day operations.

But they were doing more than that.

They also build bank apps.

Sterling Bank and Unity Bank apps were built by Tosin and his team at Team Apt, the name of the software company.

Until one day, Tosin got an email from Sterling Bank that the bank is pulling out and does no longer requires the services of Team Apt.

Tosin’s mind went blank; he was driving on Ikoyi Road when the message came in.

Sterling Bank was an important, valuable customer, and losing them was a fatal blow for his business cash flow and a monumental setback for his young, budding tech business.

How he was able to get to his destination after digesting that mail was a miracle.

From that setback, his team went back to the trenches to strategize and plan on how to stay afloat.

From that setback, that was how the Dream Monie point was born.

For Monie Point to become a reality and not suffer a stillbirth, one man so much believed in Tosin and in his dream to revolutionize the fintech industry, one customer at a time.

His name is Olu Oyinsa, and he runs Oui Capital, an early-stage African venture capital firm that invests in fintechs and early-stage tech companies.

He met Tosin and was like, Yo! This guy is different, and because of that conviction, he invested $150,000 in Moniepoint for a 1.2% stake in Moniepoint, and his investment was done in 2019.

His understanding of the banking technology stack and payment infrastructure was impressive. I knew he was up to something exciting,” Oyinsan recalled.

Without that conviction and strong belief in Tosin and Moniepoint by Olu Oyinsan, Moniepoint could have died.

Fast forward to 5 years later, after the $150,000 investment into Monie Point was made.

Monie Point has grown, has scaled, and is now a unicorn (a company worth $1 billion and above).

That $150,000 invested into Moniepont in 2019 is now worth more than $10 millon.

Last month, Olu and his team partially took out $8 million from their investment .

How much do you have as shares in this company?
How prepared are you for this opportunity?

Every good thing always starts like a joke, is only those with future that sees above the present situation.
