A United States-based political advisory and lobbying firm, Von Batten-Montague-York, has said the US will not allow President Bola Tinubu to rig Nigeria’s 2027 general election.
The firm made the statement in a post on its verified X handle on Thursday. It said a free and fair election in Nigeria is important to the interests of the United States and the wider region.
The firm also accused the Nigerian government and President Tinubu of corruption. It further alleged that Tinubu appointed a person who, according to the US Department of Justice, had embezzled billions of naira from Nigeria’s treasury during a previous administration.

If you're not worried, I'm worried for Nigeria. My heart is pained daily as I read about Nigeria through the different media outlets. There are Nigerians in almost all countries of the world. In the middle East, North and South America, Europe, and Asia, Nigerians are spread in all the countries of these continents. But one thing is common, only a handful of these Nigerians are earning a decent living without involving in criminal activities.

I just did a quick research on South Africa. For days or weeks I've been wondering what's special about South Africa that almost every African country has their nationals in South Africa more than any other country in the African continent. My instinct was telling me that there's something special that's attracting people from other African countries, especially Nigeria and Ghana, to South Africa.
