Holding every Nigerian to account for every service rendered in every little corner of Nigeria
The aims of Scorpion therefore, are:
- To expose all levels of corruption in Nigeria, especially official corruption and by so doing ensure probity and accountability in every sphere of the Nigerian life.
- To within the body politic stir up the spirit of nationalism amongst Nigerians aimed at pushing back the tides of ethnic chauvinism, tribal jingoism, religious bigotry, oligarchism, cronyism and nepotism.
- To consciously promote and encourage ultra-radical journalism and nurture the culture of investigative practice and awaken the dormant intellectualism within the Nigerian academia.
- To consciously encourage the culture of professional eccentricity amongst journalists and intellectuals aimed at putting a stop to the culture of journalism that promotes deification or the worship of individuals, especially moneybags and top public servants.
- To consciously promote unity amongst Nigerians, indigenous languages, values, creativity and innovations.
- To consciously groom a generation of rebels and mad Nigerians both at home and in the Diaspora, who will join forces to do battle with the current Nigerian ruling and oligarchic classes, and who on totally dislodging them together with their acolytes and offspring will establish true democracy, good governance and the rule of law in the body politic and adopt as it were, a slogan to be known and called NO MORE BUSINESS AS USUAL.
- To re-orientate the psyche of all Nigerians, both at home and in the Diaspora and create a new Nigeria whose people can express themselves freely and proudly exhibit their national identity under the banner I LOVE NIGERIA without recourse to ethnicity and tribal enclaves.
- Finally, to usher in the long overdue Nigerian renaissance and encourage national consciousness in all that Nigerians think, say and do.
The task ahead is not going to be easy, but with the collective efforts of all Nigerians at home and abroad, all friends and well-wishers of Nigeria across the globe joining us in this crusade by reporting all sharp practices in that country including all their unpleasant experiences in the course of doing business, or just visiting Nigeria for other enterprises, we are well able to uproot the evil tree in the House of Nigeria.
Above all, with God on our side we are able to root out corruption and general insecurity in the erstwhile giant of Africa, make her a paradise of glory and a beautiful bride for foreign investors and tourists once more. We therefore, call on all Nigerians, friends and well wishers of Nigeria to send us information, documents, facts and figures detailing all forms of corruption in that country. Although steeped in stupendous corruption, the current Government may not be willing to take action against established corrupt cases or be favourably and genuinely interested in fighting corruption as the saying goes, “He who lives in a glass house should not throw stones,†we are prepared to press for prosecution of all cases relating to corruption in any form in Nigeria by enlisting world leaders and relevant international bodies such as the United Nations and Transparency International.
According to recent information on Nigeria courtesy of the National Bureau of Statistics, more than 100 million Nigerians live on less than $1.00 a day. Oil - rich Nigeria, and indeed, Africa with all its superabundant natural and manpower resources has no business being poor.
Although our focus at this time primarily is Nigeria, we should welcome information on corruption from other African countries on other African corrupt rulers.
We should like to add that the management of Scorpion does not take responsibility for any publication herein and their aftermath.
Ridding Nigeria, indeed Africa of corruption is a task that must be done! Don't just talk about it, report it and take action.
Until I return may the Great God of Nigeria stir up the spirit of the coming revolution in you even as I profess my faith once more in our dear country
UNITED KINGDOM.

N70 MILLION 55TH INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY FUND: SUMMONING THE PRESIDENT, THE VICE PRESIDENT AND THE SGF TO THE PEOPLE'S ACCOUNTABILITY TRIBUNAL (PAT)
Written by JOHN ODEY ADUMA, PUBLISHER AND BRITISH CHEVENING SCHOLAR, UNITED KINGDOM
But when will our Nigeria take off and soar, Mr President?
Is this the magic cake that cost the nation N70 million in just one day or what exactly was it that had gulped that whopping sum of money, Excellencies?
...Let's have it put in the public domain the break down of how the N70 million approved by the President nine days to Nigeria's 55th Independence Anniversary was spent
Muhammadu Buhari will like the world to believe he has come to fight corruption, but unknown to him, corruption before his very eyes is doing a counter-offensive reducing his much vaunted crusade to a mere joke - and lamentably, he himself has been involved in vigorously encouraging and promoting corruption through his gross disrespect for constituted authority; scant regard for due process; constituting a one-man Government; weakening and actually dismantling legislative institutions and replacing them with BUHARILATURE - his equally one-man legislature, and AREWALATURE which dishes out its Sharia-orientated laws, imposing them on all Nigerians and at the same time obtrusively propped itself up as the sole and highest decision-making body for Nigeria.
How Britain foiled MUHAMMADU BUHARI'S 'coup' against the Goodluck Ebele Jonathan Government
Written by JOHN ODEY ADUMAAN ALMAJIRI AT NUMBER 10 DOWNING STREET IN LONDON ASKING FOR ALMSDEAS!
Sad tale of a General without a vision, without a Blueprint, without a Plan of Action or Action Plan. Hey, Buhari! Go home...go and put on your thinking cap! Go home, Buhari, go and think for yourself. Just where is your BLUEPRINT, GMB? Too, too early to be running from pillar to post, Mr President-elect.
THE RULE OF LAWLESSNESS
Written by JOHN ODEY ADUMA, SOAS, UNIVERSITY OF LONDONPsychopaths In Government…in Condemnation of Tyranny and Perversity
I will define the rule of lawlessness as a bestial/brutish and an ignominious behavioural tendency or practice unashamedly exhibited to promote, encourage and advance the philosophy, ideology of amorality and anarchism, whereby the laws of society and such others – rules and regulations as empowered any constituted authorities to act on behalf of the state for the smooth running of governance, harmonious and peaceful co-existence amongst the citizenry such as court orders are disdainfully treated with utter contempt, disrespect, indignity and impunity. The rule of lawlessness argues that there is not a thing as the rule of law in nature and in the world.
According to the principles of the rule of lawlessness, the good way is in fact, the bad way; whilst the right way is the wrong way. This being the case, untruth is the truth, and fake news is the real news!
RoL further argues that the so-called rule of law was an invention of the softie and weak-minded so-called democrats and the powerless, but loquacious humanists in control of the global media, who whenever they are about to lose an argument or perceive a potentially disadvantaged position in the body politics or on any given issue, would be the first to scream out and continue to like unruly mobs holler to whoever may care: RULE OF LAW! RULE OF LAW! RULE OF LAW!

Pervasive Insecurity In Nigeria, Boko Haram Resurgence And The Fierce Urgency of Now
Written by DON OKEREKE, SECURITY ANALYST/CONSULTANTBY DON OKEREKE, SECURITY ANALYST/CONSULTANT
Preamble
If there is a critical discourse on the front burner currently in Nigeria, it is on unrelenting insecurity – pervasive kidnap for ransom and extortion, overwhelming banditry, resilient and resurging Boko Haram attacks on soft/hard targets, seeming helplessness of Nigerian security agencies, especially the military and deafening calls for the Service chiefs to voluntarily, honorably throw in the towel or be sacked. The secretary to the government of the federation (SGF), Mr. Boss Mustapha says ‘’you don’t just wake up and sack people like that, there are processes and I believe that, at the ‘opportune’ time, those processes will be followed. This suggests that the service chiefs who have served their tenures may not be replaced anytime soon. The aforesaid statement credited to the SGF and an Op-ed on Africa Briefing by a professional colleague – Mr. David Otto titled, ‘’Changing Nigeria’s military leadership at the height of Boko Haram/ISWAP attacks is a tactical suicide’’. Nigerians are being slaughtered, kidnapped in their numbers every day. Someone please tell the commander-in-chief that the ‘opportune’ time is now. There's a fierce urgency to be decisive now!

PART 2
“But if I could tell my fellow Nigerians the utmost word of truth, that would be that this nation cannot exist for long as one country, especially with one half, democracy and the other half, sharia. Therefore, let the word go forth to my fellow Nigerians, and also, let it be told to the children of the future generations of Nigeria that whilst John Odey Aduma coursed through this great land of limitless opportunities, he never failed to let it be known to the North (the Hausas, Fulanis and the Kanuris) that either the North must destroy sharia or sharia will destroy the North. A word should be enough for every shariocrat.”

YO! NANJIRIYA UNDER SHEIKH MUHAMADU BUHARI ISN’T WORKING - KWENSKWENTLY, A VOTE OF NO CONFRIDRENCE, WALLAI!
In view of the current threats to national security coupled with the unparalleled national adversities into which the nation has been plunged since Muhammadu Buhari rode back to power in 2015, we are compelled by national duty and an unalloyed patriotism to alert the Nigerian authorities and the Nigerian people again, especially having been doing so in the last 27 years about the porosity and incomparable vulnerability of the nation’s national and international borders.
These two very worrisome states of the nation’s borders – North, South, East and West are such that foreign elements have been sneaking in and out to commit all sorts crimes, and having so done, sneaked out, lamentably sometimes, with the aid of even the statutory gate keepers of the nation’s borders and some very unpatriotic elements in our midst, bent on collapsing the Nigerian Federation for pecuniary gains.
