A moral distortion so refined, even thieves quote scripture while slicing the nation into private portions.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>But here\u2019s the question nobody asks: <strong>Where is this cake, and who baked it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Because by the time the masses arrive\u2014hungry, barefoot, holding their PVCs like VIP tickets\u2014the cake is gone. What remains are crumbs wrapped in national flags and excuses baked in bulletproof SUVs.<\/p>\n<p>The idea of a \u201cnational cake\u201d is Nigeria\u2019s most successful scam. A linguistic fraud dressed in patriotic icing. It implies there\u2019s a cake for all, baked from collective resources, to be shared with fairness.<\/p>\n<p>But in reality?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not a cake. It\u2019s a crime scene.<br \/>\nNot a dessert table. A buffet of betrayal.<br \/>\nAnd it\u2019s not national. It\u2019s tribal, sectional, and spiritualized.<\/p>\n<p>In the elite version of Nigeria, &#8220;sharing the cake&#8221; means inflating budgets, creating ghost projects, padding payrolls, and distributing contracts to cousins and campaign donors. Each government comes in, not to bake more, but to steal faster. The race isn\u2019t to build the country\u2014it\u2019s to finish what\u2019s left before the next guy comes.<\/p>\n<p>Every appointment is an entitlement.<br \/>\nEvery allocation is a buffet.<br \/>\nEvery budget is a recipe for looting.<\/p>\n<p>Ask a politician how he spent \u20a68 billion meant for education, and he\u2019ll say: \u201cWe have shared the cake across stakeholders.\u201d Stakeholders? That includes his wife\u2019s boutique, his brother\u2019s construction firm, and a pastor who prayed for him during the primaries.<\/p>\n<p>Even state governments have joined the bakery. They replicate Abuja\u2019s model\u2014collect allocation, announce empowerment, distribute wheelbarrows, then buy new Prado jeeps \u201cfor official use.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s be clear: Nigeria isn\u2019t suffering from a lack of resources. It\u2019s suffering from <em>over-sharing<\/em>\u2014sharing the national treasury among a cartel of career cannibals in native wear.<\/p>\n<p>They share everything except responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>And when caught? They summon grammar.<br \/>\n<em>\u201cIt was a procedural lapse.\u201d<\/em><br \/>\n<em>\u201cFunds were re-routed for urgent community interventions.\u201d<\/em><br \/>\n<em>\u201cThe audit report is politically motivated.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>If pushed too hard, they drop the ultimate incantation: <em>\u201cIt\u2019s our turn.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h1><strong>Read also: \u00a0<i class=\"fas fa-camera\"><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/africatodaynewsnewyork.com\/2025\/07\/20\/garri-gucci-and-government-contracts-part-10\/\">Garri, Gucci, And Government Contracts\u2014Part 10<\/a><\/strong><\/h1>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>That phrase, more than any policy failure, has destroyed Nigeria. <em>\u201cIt\u2019s our turn\u201d<\/em> doesn\u2019t mean progress. It means revenge. It means entitlement. It means, \u201cLet me loot small too before you complain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And the public? Tired. Broken. Distracted.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve normalized fraud. A man buys five properties after one contract and we hail him: <em>\u201cOmo, you sharp!\u201d<\/em> A governor diverts pensions and we say: <em>\u201cAt least he dey do road.\u201d<\/em> A local government chairman commissions a borehole and it trends on Twitter like he discovered electricity.<\/p>\n<p>We are complicit in our own scam. Because we too want a slice.<\/p>\n<p>We apply for contracts not to deliver, but to chop. We enter politics not to serve, but to cash out. We hustle not just to survive\u2014but to graduate into the league of cake-sharers. And until that ambition dies, the scam continues.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s all theatre\u2014recycling the same thieves with different ethnic wrappers. They steal, defect, get re-elected, and repeat the same \u201cstrategic partnerships\u201d that yield new Lexuses, not new schools.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the real bakers\u2014the teachers, the nurses, the farmers\u2014go unpaid. The masses who kneaded the flour of our GDP are locked out of the bakery while career politicians sing birthday songs with forks in their hands and bullets in their escorts.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t a national cake.<br \/>\nIt\u2019s national cannibalism.<br \/>\nAnd the knife keeps changing hands.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Professor MarkAnthony Ujunwa Nze<\/strong>\u00a0is a distinguished Nigerian-born investigative journalist, public intellectual, and global governance analyst, whose work spans critical intersections of media, law, and policy.
