‘You may become part of Nigeria’s problems’: Gehgeh advises VeryDarkMan to abandon power business

Gehgeh, a financial expert and social media personality, warned activist VeryDarkMan that his new power bank and power station business could make him benefit from Nigeria’s electricity problems. He spoke after a 40-foot container reportedly filled with the products arrived and argued that VeryDarkMan should instead have entered construction, where his followers might have helped him secure government contracts. Gehgeh said improved electricity supply could hurt sales of the devices. He advised VeryDarkMan to sell them to businessman B-Lord and return to activism and online policing.

Cameroon’s public investment budget (BIP) is expected to increase in 2027 but remain below the 40% share of the general budget targeted by the 2020-2030 National Development Strategy. At an October 27 cabinet meeting in Yaoundé chaired by Prime Minister Joseph Dion Ngute, the government announced an “appreciable increase” without specifying the planned amount or its share of the budget. A presidential circular dated October 12 sets a minimum 30% share for investment spending in 2027, but the cabinet statement does not establish whether that threshold will be met.
