When Tinubu became the Governor of Lagos in 1999, what is Lagos IGR? What is Lagos IGR between 1990 and 1998? Lagos was totally abandoned in the 90's by the military

Tinubu ruled Lagos from 1998-2007. Any other thing you dey talk nah foolish and senseless talk.

Tinubu can't force Fashola in building a world class hospital in Lagos, neither could he have force Ambode and Sanwo olu.

How many world class hospital have your state government built sef? Or your state is one of the uselses and backward states in Nigeria

IgweOfNnewi:
Hypocrisy, if Ojukwu had become, you people wouldn't have said that, the man that rejected aids and food from foreign nations just because of his callousness and stupidity

backbencher:
I'm not missing the point.

The fact is, democracy means a lot of work. It means going out and showing face and making oneself known. Not ranting online, or complaining and complaining about how bad things are....while doing nothing about it.

We have Buharis running us, and a lot of unimaginative people running over us because the people with vision and purpose that could change this country are all ranting online...instead of joining a party and changing things from within.

And yea, politics is personality driven, even in the developed countries.(Trump and before him the Kennedys in the USA for example). Plus, Nigerians themselves don't do policy. For instance, GEJ tried to remove fuel subsidy. That's a policy change...and guess how Nigerians responded? El rUFAI tried to remove deadwood school teachers...a policy change...and guess how that went down.?

All in all, power belongs to the hardworking...and right now the people who are ruling us are the ones who worked hard for it. (And yes, it happens in other countries....Weah of Liberia spent over ten years...including even going back to school to get some qualifications before he became president of Liberia)

backbencher:
Yes, because most people don't realize that democracy is hard work.

We could have had a younger Nigerian as leader right now, but most of us younglings would rather focus on other things rather than politics.

I don't like Buhari...but he is president because right from day 1 of this democracy, he made sure he was in the public eye, campaigned, risked losing elections, built a large support base, made alliances, etc etc. It took him some 14 years, but it paid off.

But most of us won't take the risk to go into politics. We cry that the election is rigged anyway, or Nigerians are too dull to vote for us, or that we don't have enough power...etc etc. Meanwhile, the old men do what we youngsters should be doing. And we youngsters back them

(Lord knows how many times I have told people to vote for parties other than PDP or APC, and Nigerians reply by saying that other parties are weak. Meanwhile, we groan under APC and on election day...vote for APC. )

Until you and I and anyone commenting on this thread is ready to do more than just rant online...we won't see any change in the status quo. Success belongs to hardworking people, not to lazy people.

This market is crazy. Not consistent at all. I don't blame d Reddit gang for their actions. Even all veteran professors on dis board has retired and given up.

That'd make your dad, your brother and your husband a hardcore killer

Ovamboland:
Debt of $63bn in 2015 becomes $90bn in 2021, is that tripling? Where you study your own maths sef

socialmediaman:
I was dissatisfied with the government of President Jonathan. I felt pity for my friends, relatives and Nigerians who suffered the excesses of the present government. I joined the fight for the will of Nigerians to prevail. I joined voluntarily, not offered anything by anyone. I am proud, finally.

Never again will Nigerians suffer the severe incompetence of any government. We have registered our presence. Power belongs to all of us and we must use that power till we get justice! I will have something to tell my kids and grandkids. We fought for the liberation of this nation!

Congratulations to General Muhammadu Buhari on your election!

Congratulations to you, Nigerians, you are the real winner!

Our revolution finally happened. The world has got something to learn from us. I remember those who have fallen beyond in the course of this great fight. You will be remembered, your blood is not in vain as finally victory is achieved!

God Bless Nigeria!

Nigeriadondie:
Because they are not a threat to the people. This is why any person comparing UGM or IPOB to terrorists must be mad. Can bandits or Boko Haram be operating and people would be walking carefree? The people know that even the police and army are are a threat to them than the UGM/IPOB.

Truthissupreme:
By the Op analogy these people aren't Talibans since their aim is simply to enforce a sit at home for a goal after which they don't disturb the citizens

Talibans are actually the group that wants to control the entirety of people's life

The real Talibans should be hisbah that breaks into school hostels to detect if boys and girls are co-habiting

Talibans is hisbah that tells people what to eat (pork) or drink (beer)

Talibans is hisbah that dictates what music people should listen to

Taliban is hisbah that tells you how to dress and hair style

Nwadiuto247:
The students you stopped from taking their exams will get double admission without waec and neco results?

Food sellers will sell double quantity of the soup and rice they use to cook because they didn't sell on Monday?

Taxi and bus drivers will make double gain because those going to work or market will pay double, covering Monday and Tuesday fare??

See how idiotic you reason. Tufiakwa

sapientia:
They could have been killed by DSS or police and pinned on IPOB

We do not kill our brothers

Nigerian security agents should stop killing igbo youths and pinning it on IPOB

Modrov:
I tell you.

But the thing is, we need something like a budget of 10 trillion for education before we can talk of decent salaries for teachers.

deltateam:
You still think it is only salary they are complaining about?

Besides who told you they are demanding #1 mil monthly.

Simply make the work environment equipped and provide adequate leave, reduce work load.

You need to read in between the lines.

Doyin2:
You really do not understand the enormity of our present predicament.

Even if all politicians start earning zero salary, we still do not have the revenue !!!!!

Simple mathematics:

If 75,000 doctors in Nigeria should start earning average salary of say N1million per month,that's total of N75billion per month and N900b per year!! Just for Doctors salary alone!!!!

What is the budget for health, private,federal and all states combined??

What if other professionals now demand equal treatment, what will happen to NIGERIA

Willie2015:
It means... u must sell a stock...
Once your loss reach a certain percentage....e,g 5%....10%
The underlyin assumption is the need to protect your capital....
First and Foremost ...while u can think about profit on a later date....
For example.... if you sold your stock at 10% loss....
U will still have some capital available to recover from your loss.......
Rather than havin a 70% loss....
And have to wait for the stock to recover ...
And/or find additional capital to push up your position....

Kennyking1234:
me I don't use stop loss I don't even understand how its works, let me ask did you buy at all time highs?

Kennyking1234:
yes it is. same thing with my portfolio. You didn't apply stop loss?

Solatium:
Lobby your Representative at various assemblies,sell them that idea may be it might come with the next constitution amendments,as it stands no constitutional provision for it in our present constitution.
Besides what gives you the assurance that you will even win at the referendum

afroxyz:
How is this possible? How many Nigerians even invest that the capital would be enough to push the naira up? The issue is growing the exonomy which would raise the value of the Naira.

You cant be operating two parrallel exchange rates and exoect your cureenvy to be strong.

You give government appointees and piligrims dollar at official rate and those guys would roundtrip and sell to BDCs. Who is deceving who? They ban BDC, ban crypto, ban importation on some goods, pay people N5 to change their dollars. Yet the government is still borrowing and not producing. It won't work. Let them keep beating around the bush

Kennyking1234:
This beautiful thread is now a ghost town..

tensazangetsu20:
I was watching a documentary today on CNN about the Talibans capture of a major city in Afghanistan. The first thing they did was to get all girls from age 12 and above for the commanders and various members to get married to and it got me thinking. The Taliban and the various terror groups in the north all share the same ideology. No amount of weapons or super intelligence can defeat this guys. I mean the USA poured in over 20 billion dollars in Afghanistan. Sent in high end weapons, trained the Afghan troops yet they still lost the war. 20 years gone, thousands of Americans dead and the war was lost.

Pierocash:
Nigeria runs a system of government that makes the president a God. You criticise him,you are either arrested and thrown into jail,or sacked if on government job.

Someone slapped one of the most powerful President in the world Emma Macron,he was arrested and charged and sent to 3 months in prison .

But in Naija,just criticise the president can earn you a remand order till infinity.

Nigeria's system of government is so flawed that makes gangsters find their way to power
