The Law Is a Blunt Instrument by Lawson Akhigbe
In the fearful months and years following the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001, Western democracies faced an unenviable dilemma. Their citizens demanded protection from an enemy that recognised no borders, wore no uniforms and deliberately targeted civilians.https://lawakhigbe.com/2026/08/12/the-law-is-a-blunt-instrument-by-lawson-akhigbe/

Trump’s con-artist history by Lawson Akhigbe
Trump’s business career has long been characterized as embodying “con-artist” tactics: aggressive promotion, leveraging his personal brand for high-margin or low-substance ventures, heavy debt leverage, selective truth-stretching in marketing, and frequent legal disputes.https://lawakhigbe.com/2026/08/11/trumps-con-artist-history-by-lawson-akhigbe/

Black Holes in the Public Purse by Lawson Akhigbe
This is not an isolated comedy of errors. It is a textbook illustration of the black holes deliberately engineered into Nigeria’s public finance architecture opaque pockets that swallow money, evade legislative eyes, and render executives unaccountable. The Bodija tranche is merely one shiny pebble in a vast, dark galaxy of special interventions, contingency advances, service-wide votes, ecological funds, security “emergency” deductions, and other discretionary vehicles that allow the executive to move (or park) billions with minimal sunlight.https://lawakhigbe.com/2026/08/10/black-holes-in-the-public-purse-by-lawson-akhigbe/

#MAGARepublicans are 'at the end of one's tether'
they are so desperate that now
#Trump decided to define #Democrats as '#communists' 😂
(hoping to return to #Maccartism)
> which is really funny considering that #Putin > the #Russians helped #Trump get the US #presidency.
So who is the 'communist' ?
trump, supported by the communist ?
the MAGAs who wore T-shirts with Putin's face?
or the Democrats who tried to impeach trump for having been aided by the communists...?
it's a dilemma. 🤣 -

Abacha-Era Corruption: A Deep Dive into Nigeria’s Most Notorious Kleptocracy (1993–1998) by Lawson Akhigbe
This was enabled by authoritarian control: no independent legislature or judiciary, weak oversight, and a patronage network treating public coffers as extensions of personal or regime power. International complicity—lax due diligence by banks—facilitated laundering through U.S. institutions and bond deals. -

EFCC and the Art of Freezing State Treasuries: When Federal Overreach Meets Federalism by Lawson Akhigbe
Nigeria is a federation. Federal agencies do not get to shut down state governments because they suspect something may have gone wrong with the books. Trail the money into private hands. Do not turn off the treasury. The courts, the governors’ forum and the plain language of the Constitution have already said as much. The only question left is how many more times the lesson must be repeated. -

Uwais Report: The Blueprint We Keep Ignoring by Lawson Akhigbe
There is a clean, structural reason Nigerian election season feels less like a celebration of democracy and more like a high-stakes tactical thriller. We built an election system where the referee is hired by one of the teams, trained by one of the teams, and paid out of a purse controlled by one of the teams. -

The Graveyard of Ideas: Why Nigeria’s Un-Gazetted Reports Carry Our Future by Lawson Akhigbe
There is a specific, quiet corner in Abuja where Nigeria’s most brilliant ideas go to die. It isn’t marked by a monument, but by dust. It is the graveyard of panels, commissions, and committees a place where billions of Naira and thousands of hours of expert labor are neatly bound into volumes, submitted in front of flashing cameras, and promptly forgotten. -
