Why are they complaining....I can bet with my life that if election is tomorrow they will still troop out in Mass to vote APC .
The irony of it because you are very correct and I have said it a million times because if with what buhari did these sheep's still went to vote ApC then it means they have no hope and sheep is smarter than them..infact they are dumber than chickens..just give them another chance and still watch them vote APC or sell their votes at polling units for a pack of rice or 2k..poverty is the cause and that's why I hope all those poor who caused this should all die of extreme poverty before the next election so that the people left with sense can salvage what is left of this country.

I think economic sabotage is contributing to the high cost of food stuff.
Re: Citizens Groan As Rice Hits N77,000 Per Bag by Savedday2: 9:27am On Feb 11
What is all these fuse about? Food is cost in other countries than Nigeria.

Infact, Army should shoot at sight anyone constituting nuisance anywhere around the country.

Now they know hunger know no tribe nor religion.

bro do not downtalk buhari time he did his best for this country. Terms of security, electricity i give it to buhari. Yes there was sometimes there wasn’t light but the wealth distribution ensured that everyone was able to at least afford the basics of living. Food was affordable and accessible to everyone, everyone had something to eat each and everyday of their life. The worse thing that can happen to a country is not having food to eat. Even some neighboring countries are so poor eg Cameroon that has no resources but you don’t hear them because at least they have supplus food to eat.
Bros, because it was better for you during Buhari’s time doesn’t mean Buhari wasn’t a failure.

How can you say Buhari’s government was good in terms of security?

Are you just looking for something to write or what?

In case you don’t know, it is bettering for some others under this administration as well.

Tinubu is only making it worse like he promised.

Buhari was a complete failure. Stop saying what is not.

The official inflation figure from the National Bureau Statistics is a lie. My guess is that inflation has gone far higher than captured in the data as naira depreciation gathered pace amplified by the reduction of fuel subsidy.

The government understands that they are foolish. Nobody cares about a foolish person, but only how they can use them to their advantage. That's what the government keep doing to Nigerians. That's why come 2027 they will still come up with more lies and the fools will fall for it. Cos that's what they are good at; being foolish and gullible.

Obi said he would remove subsidies “”ON DAY ONE” if he became president.

As did Atiku.

It is the same subsidy removal that has led to high inflation.

So please shush.

They are ALL THE SAME.

Show mW where Obi said he will remove subsidy on day one. Now I agree that you guys are actually brainless.

There's so many things at play. Subsidy removal s responsible for most of the increments we are experiencing the day. There are other factors. Alot of people are deliberately hoarding food and nigeria to a not food sufficient. We are not farming enough and the little that's available becomes an overpriced. If this government doesn't do a thing about this. This will eventually lead to protest that's to going to spiral out of control tge authorities are not going to be able to contain

In Argungu, Kebbi State - my town. There hasn't been sugar in the market for almost three days now. There are rumours that a businessman not so far from our street has hoarded more than two trailers of it since last year or two. He bought it at say less than ₦30,000. Now its about ₦77,000 and yet its still in his store while people can't even see it to buy.

We've never had it this bad

I am from the South/south. My mind keep telling me Tinubu will do well

But I am becoming afraid now

The increase in prices of goods and services changes upto 3 times in the market daily.

What you bought in the morning, when you go back to the same market in the afternoon, d price has changed

Tinubu need to wake up from his slumber. People are suffering. Is not like workers salary has been increased. 35k was never paid

your type specializes in attributing all negative trends to what you do not like or want.

Things were also deteriorating under PDP if you recall. The difference is the rate so stop sounding half smart.

that will mean more people looking for dollar and forex to go out and buy food.
It will definitely weaken the naira and still bring about expensive local food or net export of scarce food as we are seeing.

The only way out is local production which we have allowed to suffer so much. The local food can be purchased by the govt too to beat foreigners to it and improve its chances of healthy storage.

There is a common pattern beween 2015 election that brought Buhari's failed government and 2023 election that brought Tinubu's failing government. In the two elections people who warned Nigerians that electing these two persons as President will lead to the collapse of the economy were termed all sorts of names. Any dissenting voice was either termed IPO, wailers or Igbos (whether or not you were igbo in origin once you didn't want Buhari or Tinubu as President). It was as if these are the only group of people who genuinely saw the truth and spoke out. The consequences of two election circles now in Nigeria have proved that those who warned Nigerians against Buhari and Tinubu presidency were way smarter.

he is more concerned about AFCON final game. The man has next to nothing to offer us.
Just look at how Lagos is so so disorganized and see that the man is not a role model that can inspire orderliness in any way.
