Ponzi Loans and Politicians by Lawson Akhigbe
AMCON has repeatedly noted that a small number of high-profile obligors (often 300–400 individuals/entities) account for 70–80% of its outstanding portfolio (peaking around ₦4.5–5 trillion in various reports). Many of these involve politicians or their allied companies, where debts originated from pre-AMCON bank loans (e.g., Union Bank, Skye Bank facilities) that turned non-performing due to factors like margin lending, poor governance, or economic shocks.https://lawakhigbe.com/2026/08/08/ponzi-loans-and-politicians-by-lawson-akhigbe/

Senator Debtor’s ‘Art of the Deal’: A 10-Step Guide to Evading AMCON Recoveries
Get the Loan. (This is the easy part). Preferably a large, multi-billion naira sum from a struggling bank. Use your political clout as collateral – it’s worth more than anything tangible! -
The Rules for Thee, but Nary for Me: How International “Justice” Lost the Plot by Lawson Akhigbe
For decades, we were instructed to nod politely at global summits while elites proclaimed that the rule of law is universal. Except, like a discount gym membership, universality apparently comes with fine print, blackout dates, and VIP exemptions reserved exclusively for nations backed by Western firepower. -

Overview of the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) by Lawson Akhigbe
The Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) represents one of Nigeria’s most significant financial interventions in response to systemic banking distress. Its debt enforcement history reflects a blend of aggressive statutory powers, evolving legislative enhancements, notable operational successes, persistent challenges, and occasional perceptions of uneven application influenced by political or economic factors. Below is a thorough, chronological exploration of AMCON’s enforcement journey, including context, key mechanisms, statistics, notable cases (with nuances around the Ben Murray-Bruce/Silverbird matter), challenges, and broader implications. -
Government by Vibes: Governor Okpebholo’s London Roadshow and the Cost of Governing Without Institutions by Lawson Akhigbe
His administration, he argued, is practical rather than bureaucratic. It is interested in action, not process. The legacy programmes of his predecessor, Godwin Obaseki, have largely been dismantled. EdoBEST has gone. The Security Control Centre has gone. EdoGIS is going. Consultants have gone. Due process, one gathered, has become something to be viewed with suspicion rather than embraced as the machinery through which modern government functions. -

Accountability Is Not a Presidential Favour by Lawson Akhigbe
The response by the President's Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to Cardinal John Onaiyekan's television interview reveals a troubling misunderstanding of constitutional democracy. It also exposes a growing tendency within this administration to confuse criticism with disloyalty and accountability with discourtesy.https://lawakhigbe.com/2026/08/02/accountability-is-not-a-presidential-favour-by-lawson-akhigbe/

Navigating the Void: Why Nigeria Needs a Corporate Deferred Prosecution Agreement (DPA) Framework
In a standard DPA regime, a company that self-reports and cooperates can avoid the "corporate death penalty" of a criminal conviction. In Nigeria, we are currently forced to rely on the Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA) 2015. While the ACJA provides for Plea Bargaining, it is a fundamentally different animal from a DPA: -

The Samson Strategy: How the Tinubu Government Pulled the Temple Down on Itself Over PFIPC by Lawson Akhigbe
The Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration appears to have forgotten that rule in its handling of the Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council (PFIPC) controversy. In its determination to destroy the credibility of one man, Prince Adeniyi Matthew Adeyemi, it may have inflicted collateral damage on something far more valuable: the credibility of official government documentation itself. -

The Speaker as a Herald: How Edo’s Power of the Purse Got Turned Upside Down by Lawson Akhigbe
On the surface, it sounds like great news for infrastructure. But listen closely to the phrasing: "The Governor has told me that he’s going to construct so many roads… The Governor has even approved the construction… Another road that the Governor has said he will also do…" -

If You Don’t Want Us, You Cannot Have Our Gold by Lawson Akhigbe
The performance requires a villain. Africa has been performing that role for free, and at some cost to itself for considerably longer than it should have.https://lawakhigbe.com/2026/07/27/if-you-dont-want-us-you-cannot-have-our-gold-by-lawson-akhigbe/

The Double-Entry Ledger of Suffering: How Nigeria Taxes the Poor Twice and Delivers Nothing Once by Lawson Akhigbe
Reform, when it comes, will be welcomed. The question is whether the reformers are counting the same things Mama Chioma is counting. So far, the evidence suggests they are operating from entirely different ledgers and that only one of those ledgers is written in the ink of lived consequence. -

The Karma of the Beautiful Game: How Spain’s 2026 Victory Rewrote the Script for Trump and the Aggies
In many ways, Spain’s 2026 triumph stands as a glorious, inescapable metaphor for what happens when performative ego, systemic meddling, and brute gamesmanship run smack into the unyielding wall of competence and poise. -

The Tariff Trap: How Africa Was Turned Into a Warehouse for Raw Materials by Lawson Akhigbe
Long before many African nations even gained independence, an international economic architecture had already been designed to ensure Africa remained primarily a supplier of raw materials while Europe and other industrial powers controlled manufacturing, branding, finance and ultimately the profits. -
