Nairalanders una too much just listened to Mr President speech on Ait, It is exactly d same as wat Mukina posted.So wat is d way forward now?

hollandis:

Its not even live useless president

I think we all know the speech was recorded last night.

jmaine:

Your clock is obviously faulty . . . Jona don chance peeps for telly finish . . .

Let me give it a tap then.

obviously his handlers don't trust him to give a live speech

It is really interesting that a supposedly educated person with PHD would speak to the nation on what appears to be a recorded message in a manner that is equal to reprimand. In a democracy, you cannot impose on the people and expect them to be quiet. Nigerians are no fools and we have been quiet enough. If Nigeria belongs to us all like gej said, then we should all benefit from the nation's wealth and not just a select few cabals. What a shame getting fat on the backs of the masses.

I get it. They intentionally first put the price at N141, knowing that they latter come down to N97. If the price was put at 97 initially, people would have contested it.

That was nothing else but a serious SCOLDING from the president . . . . in fact, more like a warning that they had no right to protest as they wanted. If the people take this one with no peep after this, I will probably have to give Nigeria another 20 years for an actual awakening.

You are right Kobo, it is scolding. I was just at a loss for word for the way this govt is carrying on.

He may have succesfully compromised a couple of governors and even the NLC. I suspected this, given how the SNG has been explicitly distancing itself from the NLC in the last few days

SNG was trying to use this opportunity to fight corruption and other things while Labor was more focused on getting the subsidy package back. Honestly, Are we united in this? We are yet to see . The people's next reaction will show this.

sounds like his nerve was bolstered by his thugs in waiting

Labour calls off strike

And on top of that,NLC now have ordered SIT AT HOME PROTEST.as at 12.05 am hundreds of armed policemen had taken over ojota in lagos.
Well,the protests shook jonas govt,and I THINK we can still move ahead with N97/Ltr.just my opinion.

God bleess GEJ for the breath of fresh air in nigeria.
