Tinubunomics as witchcraft economism, By Ahmed Aminu-Ramatu YusufAnother luxury Nigeria cannot afford, By Majeed DahiruWitchcraft is the exercise or invocation of alleged supernatural powers, typically involving sorcery, magic, incantations, manipulation and deception to control people or events. With the collaboration of people and egregore of inferior astral, witchcraft influences the world of the living.
The ground for Tinubunomics was secured during the prolonged years of military despotism . The despots could not aggressively implement neoliberalism, primarily because of the organised power of democratic and progressive students, workers, academics, journalists, market people, and lawyers. These forces stubbornly resisted neoliberalism. Besides, the despots, as brutal cowards, were afraid of being disgraced out of power.
Reckless borrowing will be checked. Forex illiquidity will be tackled. Access to capital will be ensured. Steady power will be ensured. Corruption will be fought. Insecurity will be checked. State-owned refineries will be operational. Infrastructure will be developed. Nigeria’s foreign affairs will be subordinated to national interests!
Just as witchcraft insist on sacrifices and patience, so Tinubunomics insist that workers should sacrifice for the nation. Workers are, accordingly, being pressurised to technically accept a decreased National Minimum Wage by accepting N60,000 . The current average take-home pay of the organised private sector is N70,000, that of federal workers N77,000, and Edo State workers, N70,000.
As is typical of witchcraft-politicism, Tinubunomics throws palliatives at workers and other vulnerable people. Palliatives which further enslaves, dehumanizes and depersonalizes the poor by promoting dependency on the witches/wizards, discouraging innovation, encouraging laziness, eroding self-sufficiency, and destroying peoples’ initiatives to creatively and sustainably tackle their problems. It also divides the vulnerable, as well as weaken their power, solidarity, empathy and struggles.
