Liars. Throwing out lies for people to catch on . A 50kg of Rice that I bought was #42,000 and not this outrageous lies to continue to attack anybody.
#42k a bag is expensive but not all this nonsense lies.
A 25kg of palm oil is even around #25k now of you know the source. I still bought a bunch of plantain at #1500 in a main market day not all these retailers who come to sell you two pieces of plantain for #1000 and tell you na government and dollar.
Sit down there and be shouting on top of your voice blaming Govt and not go out there and make bargains on a market day.
Nigerians waiting for Mannas from the sky.

Please! When it gets most decisive and if it's balloting day tomorrow, a bulk of those groaning would vote and campaign for the worst candidates on the ballots fueled by ethnoreligious sentiments.

This is what I have to keep reminding myself everyday and putting a lid on my empathy. grin


Yes. When it comes to Nigeria, my empathy is very politicized.

Even if Tinubu was going to rig in an election conducted today, if he knew that the people were 100% against him, he'll be afraid to do so. But the 5% minority that keeps supporting him will embolden him and muddy the waters and never let us successfully revolt.

If worse comes to worst, they'll tell them that it is foreigners in the land that are sharing our resources with us and not making food go round, so the foreigners should go back to hometowns. Meanwhile, even if all non-indigenes should go back to their states, it'll never ever translate into wealth ownership for the majority of their supporters. Like one asthmatic ediot that was frolicking in a PJ with Dayo Israel and co. during the campaigns, only for elections to finish and he went back to begging for money for inhaler on Twitter. They fought dirty on Twitter and made a lot of enemies, being political jobbers and hoping they get compensated by Tinubu's government. Both the ones on Nairaland and then ones on Twitter, I don't think any of were given any post.

If Buhari was not enough to teach people a lesson, nobody else will ever be enough. Will should all continue like this, please.

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.
You must be a joker to write this nonsense praising that failure called Buhari, security was good and food was avoidable and accessible under Buhari indeed, I don't know what planet you were living in and whether you just woke up from a coma.

You forgot to mention the closure of land borders to food and other items since the tenure of Buhari which Tinubu also continues with. You can't even transport 1 bag of rice within Nigeria without you getting into a serious problem with custom.

You are just saying trash and I will respond to you on two points.
One. It was imam and your neighbour that played tribal card, they were not candidates. But your own man, Obi, the candidate played religious card and he was caught on tape. Look at that!
And two. Percentage of Igbo voters who voted for Obi was higher than the percentage of Yoruba voters who voted for Tinubu. What did that make you guys? Hypocrites
And again, didn't Obi vowed to remove the subsidy too?

Under 'corruption" of PDP rice was N7k, but now the price have increased more than 1000% ( One thousand percent) in less than 10 years. We warned, a man that have no certificate can not produce any good fruit. They will tell you he built Lagos, when he empowered omo onile, oba, kabiyesi, bale, agberos to STEAL and defraud people. grin grin grin grin grin angry
Tinubu's problem isn't due to lack of a certificate. Dude is a John Snow and too controversial.
Meanwhile, one billion has been earmarked for a certain committee set up to review the minimum wage. This corruption will favour me and my family. 😂😂😂😂

why not open the border and encourage importation since we are not food sufficient... Don't worry I know where I will get it more cheaper in Taiwan or Thailand, as for sourcing of Dollars for the importations don't worry I will not source it from Nigeria.. open all the seaport let's flood Nigeria with enough food

When they were beheading rice farmers under Bihari was any arrest made under that incompetent man? How is this Tinubu problems? When Buhari's family members were sending people away from their farms and killing them without any arrest made, what were you guys thinking will happen?

Until we wipe out those his family members called bandit that hr brought into this country to outst Goodluck Jonathan, we ain't see nothing yet.

At least Tinubu has wiped out more kidnappers and bandits in his short rule than Bihari's eight years rule.

Am sure you heard Katsina state government crying like a baby some days ago, and Buhari is in that state.

Tinubu is not president because he was voted in, No! He was rigged in by the establishment through INEC and ratified by the judiciary.
It wasn't because of what Nigerians did, heck, even the Supreme Court violated the constitution because of him

There was one specific incidents where they beheaded dozens of them close to Maiduguri. After govt realized the mess up can't be easily remedied with propaganda, they skillfully denied the identity of the victims.
