SternProphet:
It is almost unfair to come from a particular geographical area of Nigeria. Their mind is now completely demented. Someone WON elections by about 3 million votes and a young supposedly intelligent Nigerian is asking what Tinbu saw that "other Nigerians did not". This is Biafran idiocy. At least 15 million people saw "this thing " that Tinubu saw and voted. In 2019, a lot of us who also saw and did not vote in 2015 will come and confirm it with more than 50million votes.
Stop deceiving yourself. The man is already succeeding. He has brought back agric in a big way. He is rapidly building reserves and savings. He is doing infrastructure. Education and health will also improve with the new budgetary provisions.

A PRUDENT man whom the NUMBSKULLS called wicked and stingy, WILL succeed regardless of what anyone thinks about him.
God bless you for this post.

Kingspin:
I CAN SEE WHERE YOU ARE COMING FROM. For your info Tinubu has no option. It either he is IN/OUT. Because, PDP is NO NO for him.

You mean despite over 25 political parties in the country, Tinubu is condemned to align with Buhari?.
Tinubu that survived 16 years of PDPPIGS political SHENANIGANS now have no option than align with Buhari?.
Tinubu SAW Buhari as a man through which he can EVICT PDP from the Aso rock.
He also saw Buhari as a man through which he could achieve his agenda for SW, and Buhari also saw Tinubu as a man whom he MUST work with to become the president of this country.
Are you not in this country when the merger plan failed in 2011?, in FACT Buhari shed tears when the merger failed because Tinubu gave Buhari impossible conditions.

gurnam:
So what is your interest in all these ? Do you think you like Tinubu more than Tinubu or you know his interest more than him?

All these emergency pseudo political analysts on Nairaland knows the politics of interest of Tinubu and that of SW more than SWesterners and Tinubu

Let me tell you something how igbos politics is quiet different..Igbo politics revolves around VENGEANCE, SETTLING PERCEIVED SCORES AND WRONG DOING, HATE, CATCHING UP ON LOST GROUND OCCASIONED BY THE CIVIL WAR and ENVY AND FINALLY PERSONAL BENEFITS, what Okorocha will term myopic politics.

You kind of politics would have seen Tinubu trying to settle score with the President and Fayemi for your perceived wrong doings towards him, but politics is never play like that

This is the reason the kind of Tinubu and SW politics look strange to you Ibos.

@ Bolded is the reason the Chinese were COLONIZED by the Mongolians for a thousand years.
This period was the DARKEST in the history of the Chinese, they eventually learn to forgive one another in order to BUILD a common front against external aggression, this is the origin of the great wall of China.
Any group of people that CANNOT accommodate and respect the various views among themselves, can NEVER benefit from others because this group will never maintain a common front against others.

hardywaltz:
Correct the typo on ur topic.
This is why we shouldn't laff at others when dey make typo mistakes like some where laffing at the IGP

kayode Fayemi Prostrate Has He Greets Tinubu In Aso Rock

Remove the LOG in your eyes first Mr Webster.
" AS " not " has " is the appropriate word.
Na people like this go fail English exam and begin shout say na ojoro.

sokera:
exactly the same way the south- west never benefited from the 16 years rule of PDP ...

God bless you bro, dey think say we no get MEMORY.

CSTR1003:
No, development are not mere presidential dividends to be handed at the pleasure of the president.
Because Nigeria is not a group of autonomous regions.

In Nigeria currently, Development in a region is linked to other national developments, unless you agree that your buhari is not here to develop Nigeria but to reward his friends and leave.

Then I can agree with you on that ,while we wait for a real president.


The oil in the oil states certainly belong to their land owners. Ancestral ownership that predates Nigeria.

They reap the environmental consequences of the oil exploration and not Muhammad buhari that is holed up in Abuja.
The oil belongs to them in real terms. The FG is holding it in trust for them.

But the main point is that your buhari is able to use oil revenues from those regions because past presidents spent billions to invest in those region.
Oil did not just start flowing from there. It took massive diplomatic and financial investment from past federal administrations in those regions to create the stable oil revenue streams that your buhari is currently enjoying. Which he now feels he can use to settle those that voted for him.


Continue. History will not be kind to him.
I am certain of that.

Can you please highlight what SW gained from PDP 16 years government?.

SporaD8:
God bless you.
Politics is all about Alliance, Number, Ability to bend without breaking. Unlike some peeps who believe politics is all about Mouth and Chest, Burning bridges and calling everybody names.

Political education 101.

Freedom of association is one of Tinubu's FUNDAMENTAL human rights, so he can associate with or support anyone he likes.
Anyone who is not happy about this should go hug a Lion.

blazhykowskyi:
Yoruba contributed nothing and got something.

Igbo contributed something and got nothing and still referred to as 5% by northerners.

Who is used here?

Don't spoil this PARTY, I'm enjoying their pain.

progress69:
U are still.making more noise.

The OP posted a pic of a $100 bill and then some naira....

Using it as a criteria to attack the economy. I responded to that....

So where all this noise is coming from...i nor understand.

In b/w Nigeria does not have the highest number of people living in extreme poverty....stop saying nonsense.

It's like Nigerians have not heard about South East Asia.

clarocuzioo:
Only you mad people did not notice that dollar was 216 when he took over and now it's #360.

Only you mad people did not notice that fuel was #83 per litre when he took over power now it's #143.

Only you mad people did not notice that a bag of rice was #9,000 when he took over now it's #16,000

Only you mad people did not notice that 9 millions jobs were lost in three years.

Only you and people did not observe the sudden impunity to which herdsmen started exhibiting in killing people and till date no single one of them has been jailed.

Only you mad people did not notice that he has borrowed more than any government in the history of this country, fully implemented TSA, passed the highest budget, yet the infrastructures on ground are not in tandem with the heavy funds.
Only you mad people did not relealize the flaggrant abuse of rule of law and due process thus making it look like the constitution has been suspended.

Only you mad people did not realize that Babachir lawal who was suspended is yet to be invited by the EFCC for questioning.

Only you mad people did not realize that the fourth deadliest killer group globaly ranked is to yet to be proscribed and decleared a terrorist group.

If only you are NOT mad, you will realize that your use of the word MAD means you and your party are ACTUALLY mad.
How do you get people to vote for you by insulting them?

blank:
You're a crook and a thief. That's the crux of my argument.

And the ones going around FORCEFULLY EXTORTING money through crazy bills are government empowered thieves?.
If the power distribution companies are not FLEECING the customers, there would have been no NEED for any other source ok.
In a state of lawlessness, it is illegal to be law abiding.

Kyase:
Tell that facebook user to share how elections are done in Delta and rivers.
I will be waiting......

And Bayelsa.
I'm still looking for the you tube video of that FUGLY FAT woman that was posted on the you tube rigging election for Jona in 2011.

blank:
That's because you're a crook. You're part of the people spoiling the power sector so no need to look towards govt because it is made up with people like you. People who are always looking for a shortcut for the system not to work. You can justify yourself to your praise singers who do not know better but you know what you are proposing is stealing electricity no matter how you term it.

It's because of people like you that the disco's think they are losing money on prepaid and are not ready to continue to fund it. After all, anyone can now buy meters. Keep channeling the money into your slush fund.

NERC have made a rule that anyone can buy meters. So, why not go to the disco, get their spec and buy it. Give it to them to fix and integrate into their system.

Abeg make we hear word, will they EVER sell meter when they can JUST bill people without giving them light.

olubankemi:
Get yourself updated. Soon some private contractors called MAPs - meter access providers will be licensed to sell prepaid meters . It's soon going to be like you going out there to buy a sim card.

They were supposed to start functioning April 28 but politics is holding them back.


Even Phcn in my area is going out there ones they've being keeping free.

This is what is happening in Angola at the moment, people buy prepaid meters like they buy phones and call the electric companies to come and connect them to electricity.
The problem with NIGERIA is greed and nothing more.

EgunMogaji:
"From the benefit of hindsight and historically, most distribution of power sectors realised that when you introduce prepaid meters, revenue drops. Because it is prepaid, people get conscious of consumption and they thereby reduce usage. Then we discovered that prepayment leads to more bypassing. If we meter the distribution transformers, at least we can audit and know what energy has gone to a particular area and from there we can then see the bills that have not been issued. We will know that within that locality there is an issue and we can then send our team to go and look at what is happening. We have decided to do a mix: post-paid metering, prepaid metering and also metering the distribution transformers. By this, we will be able to have real case scenarios."

Rubbish make dem upgrade their technology na.
So because some people are bypassing, those who don't have prepaid meters should pay crazy bills?

damola1:
I just paid 100k to get prepaid meter.

Say na who die na, I got mine for 25k, plus wiring and bribe 10k.

futurism:
lol... and we say we can really get constant power supply? That will NEVER happen in the next 100 YEARS!

Yeye dey smell, go to Ago Okota axis, na 24hr light.
Every house in this axis is on prepaid meter, no light no money, simple as abc.
Nigerians NEEDS to learn to BLOCK financial loopholes, I know those who pay as much as 35k on monthly basis because they sell cold drinks.
I told them to FIGHT for prepaid meters, but they were being LIED to by the power distribution officials.
The same people that are in charge of electricity are in charge of petrol and generators, they are also in charge of the generator spare parts.
The earlier people understand this the better.
FIGHT AND GET a prepaid meter this is the ONLY way out.

futurism:
Good.... you just answered what I had asked above. So the none availability is politics.

I had a reason for asking. Thanks.

Corruption NOT politics.
And if you believe there is no meter, you are on your own.
Card meter is available in the electric companies stores, the electric companies and their workers are the ones, who makes sure you don't have one.
People NEED to rise up against the DRACONIAN billing system simple.

tiwaz:
I think Nigerians will never experience good governance again till this world come to an end, what on earth did President Buhari did in all his 3yrs in office that should be the reason why all this slow poke fools should welcome him like this. Nigerians are fools indeed especially the Northers

Soappy tears

And the country was moving forward since 1985 - 2015?.
If the country CAN vote a man that was FORCED out of power at gun point forty years ago, it is either the country NEEDS the man or the country is mad.
Anyway get more handkerchiefs and buckets 'CAUSE Buhari will be in CHARGE till 2023.

hardywaltz:
Of course the borrowing will be higher since 2015 coz there was nothing to fall back to.
GEJ should have handed over the economy (Healthy Reserves and real cash in ECA) as he met it. The real question u should be asking is why wasn't the Foreign Reserves shored up in the period of high crude earnings and unprecedented 2.2mbd?
Other oil nations shored up their reserves to take care of imports without devaluating their currency (if possible) till oil prices stabilize.
Instead ur hero depleted our reserves, squandered the ECA and handed over a rundown economy and u have been looking for a miracle
Kontinu

Most of THESE emergency economists didn't even KNOW that, had Buhari not win the 2015 election, most of them will probably be MAD now.
YEYE dey smell.

SalamRushdie:
We will not accept PMB one day beyond may 29 ..That would be the beginning of the breakup of Nigeria...No way that Jihadist will be allowed to rig his way back

Rada rada who are the we,?
Buhari till 9ja reserve him $500 billion dollars.
If an incumbent president with all the available state machinery can't stop Buhari, na online RANTING like yours go stop am?.
Find work do jor.

hardywaltz:
On the economy I score PMB 100%

GEJ & NOI
*** Inherited $50+ billion in External reserves
*** Inherited $ 22 billion in Excess Crude Account
*** Inherited a robust economy with the States Governments paying salaries.
*** Inherited Crude prices at $110/barrel and 2.2mbp
*** Inherited a stable exchange rate

PMB & Kemi
*** Inherited $29+ billion in External reserves
*** Inherited less than $2 billion in Excess Crude Account :[ (NOI claimed Amaechi refused for her to save another foolish claim)
*** Inherited a dwindling economy with the 28 States Governments unable to pay salaries needing FG bailout
*** Inherited Crude prices at $40/barrel and 1.4mbp (no thanks to the avengers)
*** Inherited a exchange rate that had been devalued on three occasions and black market rate disparity far higher than official rate.


Today the exchange rate has been stable for close to 10months, foreign Reserves is in a 10year high.

God bless you for this analysis, the Yuan exchange rate is starting by June.
70 % of Nigeria's import is from China, the dollar induced inflation is about to give way.
The CBN Governor said $50 billion, is the threshold, as the reserve is getting FAT and Yuan taking care of most of our importations needs.
Dollar is likely to go below #300 by December.
God bless Buhari and the economic team.
Nigeria shall be great again.

SalamRushdie:
Any plot to use fake statistic to deceive Nigerians yo vote Satan Buhari again will fail in the Name of God...By the Name of God I declare this is Buharis last tenure

If you can't see your psychiatrist, try use your drugs na.

sarrki:
Seriously with the level Reno is playing opposition he’s not Cool

He should be playing constructive opposition

What I mean is point out those areas the government is not doing well

With that you lure undecided voters to your camp

It’s too childish

What are you talking about?.
Reno is a pastor na, the crack down on dirty money is affecting his business.

See the real Jews, take those ones in Tel Aviv serious at your own peril.

God bless Buhari.
