PDP are naturally desperate and deceitful. Most of their politicians and supporters don’t know how to make money like normal human beings. They have grown accustomed to receiving looted money from Nigeria’s treasury without offering any tangible services. Buhari not only removed them from government, he also blocked their avenues of stealing and that’s why they hate him so much. Many of these people call themselves businessmen and complain about the economy, yet their so-called businesses have no structure of any kind. They just wait for a greedy politician to give them fraudulent contracts. Buhari has blocked those loopholes and they will remain blocked. This week we will send their criminal leaders into political retirement. PMB till 2023.
There's a state in Nigeria called Kano state and it is governed by APC and Buhari endorse the Governor for 2nd term
What do u have to say about that?





P.S : Don't result to insult just answer the question cool

Multiplier effect of corruption

1. A young man works for one of the state ministries. His salary is 120K. He makes 15,000 everyday on this desk (N75k a week) engaging in corrupt practices. As a result, he spends the daily cash as he cares. Living large and far above his legitimate income.

2. He visits the local joint every evening and buys drinks for friends, and area boys. They hail him. He is married, but has two girlfriends. His "income" is enough to take care of them. The Asun seller at his favorite joint is happy, the joint owner is happy.

3. Everyone was benefiting from his "income". Friends, family, area boys, joint owner, Asun seller, girlfriends, wife and his church. Life was good.

4. Then suddenly the ministry implemented the Treasury Single Account (TSA) at the beginning of PMB administration. His extra "income" disappeared and he had to adjust to the reality of event and live within his real income. That wasn't easy.

5. Initially he reduced his daily visit to the joint to 3 days a week and stopped buying drinks for everyone. He reduced he plates of Asun. The Asun seller started to find it hard to sell a full goat each day and resorted to buy half.

6. The young man's girlfriends started to feel the heat too. No more iPhone 10. The joint owner noticed a drop in sales. The young man finally stopped visiting the joint after a month. The area boys started feeling his absence. The effect cascaded down.

7. The young man started spending more time at home with his wife and kids. The family had to readjust to the reality of the new normal. His hair stylist noticed the young man suddenly stopped tipping. He will even wait for his N200 change after haircut.

8. Things are different. Times are hard, they all cry. The young man is blaming Buhari, his wife is blaming Buhari, the area boys are blaming Buhari, the girlfriends are saying Buhari must go, the joint owner is saying Buhari killed the "economy"

9. The Asun seller is cursing Buhari, the hair stylist is insisting Buhari is too old to rule. This is the story of our nation where corruption fuels the "economy". Those who are not engaging in it are benefiting from it.

10. This tread is not about Buhari's achievement or failure, but rather about the "multiplier" effect of corruption and how we have built a system largely driven by corruption. It's about policy implication (good or bad). It's about the choices we have made.

Finally, the young man had to withdraw his kids from what he called expensive primary school his kids attend. He added:"what are they teaching them there sef " Obasanjo didn't go to a private school. I just laughed

My Take:
Most of the so called rich men and women in Nigeria before now were feeding fat on the populace, imaging a level 15 officer in a state ministry sponsoring two of his/her children's education in Europe but when TSA came to effect, free money dried up but Buhari was blamed for the inability to fund children in Europe! Awon ole jati -jati, ofan a je l'oju onile.
my bros your anecdote too tall, for banks ehn a lot if hanky-panky go on the TSA is being abused as the bank executives continue to circumvent CBN policies with utmost disdain a lot of the documentation for effective TSA is waived at the instance of one director or the other top hierarchy bank officers, Nigeria has good policies as a matter of fact but we fall short in implementation the same TSA is now conduit for money laundering in most banks as a matter of fact, another thing there are customers with more than one BVN and minors with BVN in this country if you know you know

Wow Igbos truly hate Yorubas , my advise to them is that they should learn politics Games and do their calculations very well before hating ... their problems is caused by them not anyone ... they hate to see Yoruba develops , they hate the fact that they have to come down to south/west before they can be successful... is that Yoruba problem ? If you guys continue this way , your children and children unborn will keep believing that without hustling in south/west they will never progress... change your ways , learn the good things about Yorubas and implement it in your regions and stop hating for no reasons ... you people decided to support PDP and the other tribes also decide to support another party is that a crime ? Anyway Vote don’t fight
See this eddiot.

A lot of igbos either traders,industrialist or manufacturer s are making it in Onitsha , Aba and nnewi. Not everybody must come to Lagos to progress.

That you have never leave your ogbomosho village doesn't mean you can come online to talk rubbish.

I guess people like innoson, ibeto, Louis carter, chicason group and the rest of them make it in the SW ?
You need to travel out to get oriented and educated instead of exposing your ignorant.

Which Tinubu? How many time will you hear it or read to understand and know the man called Tinubu of apc is not from Tinubu family in fact nothing link him with that family than he was a *maid son* in the original Tinubu family house and they adopted him and he adopted the name. Bro Tinubu origin and father house is in a town or village called Iragbiji in Osun State so his lineage are nobody in reference to Yoruba history, read or known ok so pls be very accurate in your write up. No offense just shedding more light to who Tinubu is if you are not aware.

Pls guys let's leave throne stuff and focus on the real matter and the real matter is: Buhari must be send back to Daura latest by March 2019. Thanks.

Or is the President of Nigeria no longer superior to an inefficient Oba of a town?
Either way a Fulanis man is superior to an Afonja.

I can't speak for ibo people but I know one thing you yorubas have no respect for culture and will sell anything for money

The other day my colleague had the guts to compare YouTube Obasanjo to my king (the oba of the Benin kingdom)

My king can never do this for anyone even the British prime minister of the president of America
If you have an iota of pride you would shut up in shame as this proves the point I tell my colleagues that the Yoruba monarchs are a joke and a shameless bunch of money hungry grubbers

What a shame!!!Monarchs in Nigeria usually have more than one throne in their throne room. In fact, most monarchs have 3 thrones in their throne room.

If another monarch visits the palace, for example, if the Emir of Kano visits the Oba of Lagos, then the Emir will sit on one of the other thrones.

There are usually 3 thrones because, according to protocol, when the president visits a state, he usually visits the most prominent traditional ruler in that state and the governor, as his host, usually accompanies him on that visit. So that traditional ruler would usually sit on the biggest throne (in the middle), the president would sit on his right and the governor on his left.


However, in recent months there have been some crazy threads on Twitter and Nairaland in which some people have alleged that the monarch "left his throne" for another person and that the monarch has therefore "desecrated Yoruba culture". So, for example, when Pastor Adeboye visited the Ooni of Ife, some people posted a close up picture of Adeboye sitting on a throne and claimed that the Ooni "left his throne for Adeboye".

Similarly, this morning someone posted a close up picture of Buhari sitting on a throne at Iga Idungaran and claimed that the Oba of Lagos "left his throne for Buhari".

However (as you can see from the 2nd picture), the Ooni's throne is actually a couch and that's the throne that he sits on when he has guests.

I don't understand what the confusion and fuss is about. The op has stated that the king sits on the biggest throne while the visiting president to the right and the host to the left. Look at the full picture of the oba of Lagos visit. The king is on the biggest throne, which is in the middle. PMB is on a smaller one which is on the right and I think it's the VP on the left. Look at the one with Pastor Adeboye and Ooni. It's obvious that the Ooni uses that couch as his throne and the one the pastor is sitting on is the smaller one. Why do people just like to talk crap? All in the name of tribal diss and sentimental crap.




Don't mind them, it's obvious most lack critical reasoning. The pictures are taken from different visiting of the President to the palace and the sitting arrangement are same. Mean while, two of those pictures were before the PMB became President.

Another thing worthy of note is, if you look critically at the below picture, we'll realized that the sitting arrangement can be restructured depending on the level of the visiting dignitaries.








Likewise that of Ooni, the single couch is for visiting guests while the one he's (Ooni) is sitting is his rightful seat, reason it has animal skin on the floor, I give up on this generation and the mischief makers.
