Well, Kukah is a bishop, Perhaps he sees and hears things mere mortals can't see.He said there could have been a coup if Buhari were not the president.

The idea is that Buhari's sins and incompetence necessitate a military coup. Kukah is a bishop, otherwise, I would have said he is serpentine. Regardless of how well or badly Buhari might have functioned, the suggestion of the probability or propriety of a coup is mischievous.
But Kukah is a bishop so I won't say he is a trouble maker. Let's just say he is mistaken. In 2018, Kukah resurrected Atiku and helped cleanse him of political leprosy. It was in desperation to unseat Buhari. Kukah and company lost woefully.
Today, Kukah, the democrat, is talking about a coup. When the bible forbids certain things it says, let it not be heard amongst you. One would think that a coup is a word that shouldn't ever come out of Kukah's mouth.
The coup Kukah is hinting about would have been staged by a section of the country to correct Fulani nepotism or domination, right? Kukah is the leader of the peace committee but here he was throwing firewood into the fire in the name of telling the truth.
Too many bishops possessed by hate. Atiku was the only man Kukah and others could find in 2019, yet they expected to win the election. 2023 is here. Kukah won't talk about Igbo presidency, he is talking about a coup.
With all Kukah's knowledge of the country's history, what role would a coup play in creating a balance? The grudge against Buhari won't let folks think. The man is not a life president. He will leave in 2023.
Rather than prescribe armageddon through innuendos, plan to replace him with a better option. Kukah is talking about a coup. The idea is that a democratic government in 2020 can be justifiably kicked out by a military regime.
What else can you say of that drunken prediction by a man who has the public trust to make peace and promote democracy? Bitterness. There is no brain, no heat, it cannot corrode.

Which metric is a better predictor of the severity of the fall surge in US states?

1) Margin of Democrat victory in Nov 2020 election
or
2) % infected through Sep 1, 2020

Can you guess which plot is which?


The left plot is based on the % infected through Sep 1, 2020. You can see that there is very little correlation with the % infected since Sep 1.

However, there is a *strong* correlation when using the margin of Biden's victory (right).

Infections % from
https://t.co/WcXlfxv3Ah.


This is the strongest single variable I've seen in being able to explain the severity of this most recent wave in each state.

Not past infections / existing immunity, population density, racial makeup, latitude / weather / humidity, etc.

But political lean.

One can argue that states that lean Democrat are more likely to implement restrictions/mandates.

This is valid, so we test this by using the Government Stringency Index made by @UniofOxford.

We also see a correlation, but it's weaker (R^2=0.36 vs 0.50).

To avoid look-ahead bias/confounding variables, here is the same analysis but using 2016 margin of victory as the predictor. Similar results.

This basically says that 2016 election results is a better predictor of the severity of the fall wave than intervention levels in 2020!
I am going to take the context for this thread from this piece by my good brother @mabziz in 2018-3 years ago. One thing I am so perturbed about is the response of our Attorney General's office to issues of state security. I have no personal grouse against @MalamiSan, but


2. I do have a professional grouse against him. I feel he is not alive to his duties. I feel that he is also not empowering his Director of Public Prosecutions or his Solicitor General. There is clearly a lot that befuddles me and this is because I am a seasoned lawyer and can't/

3. understand why law is not being used as the instrument it was designed for-to enforce law and order. Let us take the case of Nnamdi Kanu-this man was arraigned in Nigeria on a charge of treason/treasonable felony-he was on bail & he jumped bail. Why has he not been extradited?

4. Is it that Kanu is somehow bigger than Nigeria? What has happened to his surety who failed to produce him? Who is prosecuting him? Our Federal Ministry of Justice? Should Malami not explain to Nigeria why Nnamdi Kanu is still taunting Nigeria daily & still actively destroying/
