Nigeria has agreed to a gas deal that moves it closer to reviving the Ajaokuta Steel Complex that hasn't produced any metal since being built half a century ago. The agreement with the Nigeria National Petroleum Co will provide Ajaokuta Steel Co. with as much as 50 million standard cubic feet of gas per day as feedstock for a power plant servicing the metals complex. The availability of gas has long been a key question raised by investors from many countries over the years. The steel plant and all its components are all powered by gas. The Ajaokuta plant was built by Soviet engineers in the late 70s. More than $8 billion has been sunk into the complex over the past five decades, and its yet to produce any steel. This industrial complex had the potential to transform Nigeria's industrial landscape, especially considering Nigeria's vast iron ore deposits. President Bola Tinubu has set a crude steel production target of 10 million tons annually by 2030. Though the furnace is not running, engineers at the facility have fabricated a modular blast furnace that's currently molding manhole covers, poles and rail tracks for a small section of the Nigerian market. The government has decided to pursue a partnership model under which private investors will finance and operate the facility for 10 to 15 years before transferring it back, while generating returns for the government. The approach mirrors the strategy adopted to revive Nigeria's long idle oil refineries.

Did you know that between 1945 and 1947, over 800 pregnant women at Vanderbilt University’s prenatal clinic were tricked into drinking a “vitamin cocktail” laced with radioactive iron? They were poor, mostly white women seeking free care, and doctors told them it would boost their babies’ health. But it was an experiment funded by the government-linked Atomic Energy Commission to track iron absorption using fallout-era radiation from Oak Ridge. No consent. No warnings about the risks. These women suffered. Follow-up studies in the 1960s revealed higher cancer rates among them—four died young from rare malignancies like leukemia and intestinal cancer. Their kids faced even worse: a three to four times greater chance of dying from cancer before age 10. It stayed buried until 1993, when the Energy Department finally admitted to widespread human radiation experiments during the Cold War. Justice came slow. In 1994, survivors sued Vanderbilt. By 1998, they won a $10.3 million settlement split among hundreds—no admission of guilt, just hush money from the university and foundations. Some got as little as $5,000 after legal fees. Compensation? It was a Band-Aid on a gaping wound, but at least they forced acknowledgment. Many died waiting. Fast forward, and history rhymes in the shadows. At Camp Lejeune, the Marine Corps base in North Carolina, from 1953 to 1987, a million service members, families, and civilians drank water poisoned by industrial solvents like trichloroethylene and benzene—leaking from fuel tanks and dry-cleaning waste dumped by the military itself. Government knew by the 1980s but dragged their feet on cleanup. The toll? Cancers everywhere: bladder, breast, kidney, leukemia. Birth defects, infertility, Parkinson’s. Veterans and kids born there still battle mysterious illnesses. For decades, the VA denied claims, calling it “not service-connected.” Only in 2012 did Congress pass a law for health care coverage on 15 specific conditions—if you prove 30 days’ exposure. But real compensation? The 2022 Camp Lejeune Justice Act finally lets victims sue the government directly. Billions in potential payouts, but it’s a grind—claims pile up, bureaucracy slows everything. Thousands have filed, some winning six figures for lost wages and suffering, others nothing yet. Treatment? VA covers some, but many vets pay out-of-pocket or go without, dying while appeals drag on. See the thread? Government “science” and negligence poisoning the vulnerable, then decades of denial before scraps of justice. The Trump administration has an opportunity to step up and take action before it is too late! I quote posted the rest of the info below if you want to read more.

Seedance 2.5 shame walk prompt is below 👇 [STYLE + CAMERA + ATMOSPHERE] Gritty high-end medieval television production look. Shot on ARRI Alexa XT with Cooke anamorphic lenses, mix of Steadicam tracking and handheld inside the crowd. Natural overcast daylight, desaturated dirty palette, visible film grain, realistic crowd physics and fabric movement. No modern polish. [CHARACTERS] Central figure: proud middle-aged noblewoman with roughly cropped short blonde hair, wearing a plain rough grey woolen penitential robe that fully covers her, barefoot, pale skin, rigid upright posture that slowly cracks under public condemnation. Stern middle-aged woman in plain brown religious robes walking just behind her, continuously ringing a large heavy iron handbell and chanting in a loud flat voice. Dense crowd of dirty medieval city dwellers of every age and class in period clothing packed on both sides and leaning from windows. [LOCATION] Narrow winding cobblestone streets of a medieval coastal city, high stone walls, arched doorways, wooden shutters, mud on the ground. [TIMELINE] 0-6s: [Steadicam tracking medium-wide from the side] The woman in the plain robe walks steadily forward with forced dignity. The robed woman stays half a step behind ringing the bell and chanting “Shame. Shame. Shame.” Crowd begins to notice, first heads turn, early shouts of “Shame!” rise. 6-12s: [Handheld inside the pack, pushing closer] Crowd presses tighter along the path. Faces show pure contempt. Children point and call out. The woman keeps her chin high but her eyes start to glaze. Bell never stops. Chant continues: “Shame. Shame. Shame.” 12-18s: [Low tracking shot moving with her feet then tilting up to face] Bare feet slap wet cobblestones. A woman leans from a window and shouts “Shame!” The central woman’s jaw tightens, first tears form but she does not break stride. Crowd noise becomes a continuous wall of overlapping “Shame!” mixed with the bell. 18-24s: [Medium close-up handheld, slight shake] Camera stays locked on her face as the controlled mask cracks. Tears finally fall. She stares straight ahead, breathing harder. Behind her the religious woman rings harder and keeps the flat chant. The plain robe shifts with every step under the weight of the stares. 24-30s: [Pull-back Steadicam wide tracking] The full street is visible: wall of bodies on both sides, continuous shouting of “Shame! Shame! Shame!” mixed with the bell. The woman continues walking, posture still upright but now visibly broken, tears streaming, until the frame holds on her isolated figure moving through the condemnation. [STYLE & QUALITY BOOSTERS] Exact period production texture of a major series, coherent physics of every body and fabric movement, stable character continuity, natural motion blur, no modern digital cleanliness, no artificial enhancement. we are cooked 😮

Both claims are incorrect. Contrary to the misinformation seeking to create fear, panic and disaffection, the Nigeria Tax Act 2025 has already commenced and does not impose a 25% tax on construction funds, bank balances, or business expenses. Instead, it contains provisions specifically designed to reduce the cost of housing, rent and real estate development. 𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐍𝐢𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚 𝐓𝐚𝐱 𝐀𝐜𝐭, 2025 Relevant provisions to make housing more affordable, encourage real estate development, and support small business property contractors and low-income renters include: 1.

𝘐𝘯𝘱𝘶𝘵 𝘝𝘈𝘛 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘵𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘴: Where VAT is chargeable on any materials or service, contractors can now recover VAT on their assets and overhead costs, which lowers overall construction costs. 𝘙𝘦𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘞𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘛𝘢𝘹 (𝘞𝘏𝘛): A lower 2% WHT rate is applicable on construction contracts, helping to conserve cash flow and reduce financing pressure on developers. 𝘓𝘰𝘢𝘯 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘋𝘦𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 (𝘚.30(2)(𝘪𝘷)): Mortgage interest is tax-deductible for individuals developing an owner-occupied residential house. 𝘋𝘦𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘙𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘌𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘴 (𝘚.20): Property owners who earn rental income can deduct related costs such as repairs, insurance, and agency fees. 2. 𝑫𝒊𝒓𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝑹𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒇 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑹𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑻𝒆𝒏𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒔 𝘙𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘙𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘧 (𝘚.30(2)(𝘷𝘪)): Individuals can claim relief up to ₦500,000 (20% of annual rent), increasing disposable income for low-income earners. 𝘝𝘈𝘛 𝘌𝘹𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘯 𝘙𝘦𝘯𝘵 (𝘚.185(𝘭)): The VAT exemption on land and buildings also covers rent which is fully exempt from Value Added Tax. 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘮𝘱 𝘋𝘶𝘵𝘺 𝘙𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘧 (𝘚.134): Lease agreements with an annual value below ₦10,000,000 (or 10 times the annual minimum wage) are exempt from stamp duty. 3.

𝘙𝘌𝘐𝘛 𝘐𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴 (𝘚.162(𝘤)): Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) are exempt from Companies Income Tax (CIT) when distributing at least 75% of their dividend or rental income within 12 months after the financial year-end. 𝘗𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘚𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘰𝘳 𝘐𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴: Manufacturing of building materials such as iron, steel, and domestic appliances qualifies for specific tax exemption under the economic development incentive scheme for up to 10 years. 𝘙𝘦𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘊𝘰𝘳𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘛𝘢𝘹 𝘙𝘢𝘵𝘦 (𝘚.56): Scope for the reduction of companies income tax rate for large businesses from 30% to 25%. 4.

𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒊𝒔 𝑵𝑶𝑻 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑻𝒂𝒙 𝑳𝒂𝒘 The Act does not: • Tax money in bank accounts or bank balances. • Tax transfers for buying building materials. • Introduce a 25% construction or business cost tax. • Delay implementation until 2027. 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: Claims suggesting a new tax on building materials or bank funds are false and misrepresent the law. Rather, the new tax law specifically introduced measures to make housing more affordable, promote real estate development, incentivise manufacturing of building materials, and grant rent reliefs to tenants to enhance their disposable income. 𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐃: “Fact Not Fear”, evidence beats emotion. If anyone makes an alarming claim or tries to misinform you, ask them “Where is it in the law?” With the new tax laws, housing should become more affordable and rent should go down NOT up! — 𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘍𝘪𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘗𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘛𝘢𝘹 𝘙𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘴 𝘊𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘦

Tartaria Lives.. ..Indeed, forever. This decades-long journey is now immortalized into a book. [Yes, I have the Tartar-Sauce™] 👇 The Official History Feels Too Small We have been taught a story of humanity that fits neatly between the covers of a school textbook [read: hunter-gatherers, Bronze Age, Iron Age, greece, hut-dwelling-romans™, Dark Ages™, Renaissance™, Industrial Revolution] onward and upward in a tidy, linear march. Yet when we stand in certain places like beneath the impossible stonework of the cathedrals, or inside the silent grandeur of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair buildings, or even among the star-shaped forts that ring the planet like a forgotten/shattered mandala.. ..something in the official chronology begins to creak. There exists a word in the Tartarian Welsh language called #Hiraeth. That peripheral-memory of a past, that you can't quite put your finger on, a nostalgia or memory now lost to you, stubborn and worldwide. We all have it This book will show you that there once lived an advanced, cohesive, and astonishingly sophisticated civilization, that unified huge portions of Eurasia, North America, and beyond. Its citizens built with a mastery of geometry, acoustics, and atmospheric electricity that modern engineering still struggles to replicate. Its cities were bathed in free energy drawn from the ether/plasma itself. That Its architecture was not merely functional but therapeutic, designed to harmonize body and spirit as our populations 'default-setting'. That Its reach was so complete that remnants of its characteristic red-brick power stations, domed capitols, and colossal exhibition halls were later mislabeled 'Beaux-Arts,' 'Moorish Revival', or simply 'temporary fair structures' and quietly erased. That this civilization had a name its own people used, 'Tartaria'. Not the vague 'Tartary' of outdated European maps, but a proper noun, a polity, a cultural and technological colossus that appears again and again in 16th- through 19th-century sources [pre-printing-press] and mentioned in our earliest writings, only to be scrubbed, redrawn, and reduced to a blank spot on the map within a single lifetime. The evidence is not hidden in secret vaults, or under the 'Paws' of miss-attributed monuments, it is hidden in plain sight. It is in the thousands of ornate 'old' buildings that predate the supposed invention of reinforced concrete yet contain miles of it within. It is in the world-spanning network of orphanages and asylums built to identical plans on every continent within a decade of one another. It is in the molten cities photographed after the so-called 'Great Fires', in the 'mudflood' strata that buried first floors across the Northern Hemisphere. It is in the star forts whose true purpose was never military but energetic, creating concentric patterns across the landmass and all connected and collecting from source. What happened to Tartaria is the question this book refuses to let die. Yes, I have the Tartar-Sauce™😏 Was it dismantled by orchestrated cataclysm, floods, directed-energy liquefaction, and plasma events, marketed as 'natural disasters'? ..or something even more nefarious? 😳 Was its free-energy technology deliberately suppressed during the 19th-century takeover by financial cabals who understood that meterable power is controllable power? Were its surviving people scattered, re-educated out of their own history, and folded into the nation-states we know today? I do not claim to have every answer. I claim only that the story we were sold is missing several hundred years and an entire civilization. I claim the buildings still stand. The maps still exist in forgotten archives. The photographs; of giants' doors, of airships tethered to cathedral spires, of children posing atop capitol domes that were later dynamited as 'too old to repair/couldn't maintain', have not ALL been burned. This book is an invitation to look again, without permission, at what has been left for us. The stones remember, even if the textbooks do not. Welcome to the investigation of Tartaria. The empire that officially never existed, yet whose fingerprints are on every continent and whose silence is louder than any history we were ever taught. 'The 'Past', is a crime-scene.' ~TartariaLives "Give the biggest gift of all this year... ..their true histories...of Tartaria" 👇
