Congratulations! Now you can stop crying...

One firefighting truck for just one citizen bah
Do the vehicles in his convoy not have fire extinguishers?

Think before you type. You will not die if you do! How can you say "firefighting truck for just one citizen?" Is your head paining you? Is Tinubu the only one in the convoy? Do you even know what a convoy mean like this

24kmagic:
This rubbish will make front page.

No be Yorubaland nairaland?

You call this type of information rubbish? I bet you really don't understand what a serial killer is or the importance of public sensitization as to their operations! You must be used to just throwing tantrums on political matters here! Serious life issues is no matter to you i guess!!

Oh! You stay around Ayobo. Good to know. I know that area wella!

savcy:
Atiku has never won an elective exercise in his life, so he is no match for Wike. I don't like Wike's growing influence, but Atiku and Amaechi politicking tilts towards emotions than pragmatism.

See as you just expose your ignorance to the public! Before you make your opinion known publicly, do your research first! Stop showing so much confidence in error like this...

What if she does is the right English. Take note!

You are a liar, no state comes close to Lagos when it comes to taxing it's residents unnecessarily

Are we talking about Agberos or Tax levies

hisexcellency34:
LAGOS, Nigeria’s commercial nerve centre, is reeling under the strangulating grip of street thugs, violent transport union enforcers also known as agbero, cultists and sundry criminals. Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu must reengineer the security and transportation systems to surmount these threats that have made living in Lagos barely tolerable for its 22 million residents.

Agberos are making life difficult for Lagosians, with transporters and commuters at the receiving end. At every bus stop and junction, they impose and extort multiple levies from commercial bus drivers, tricycle and motorcycle riders and violently assault those who dare to question their authority. Because of them, transport fares are astronomical. In October 2022, Lagos drivers declared a strike after accusing the state-favoured union faction of illegal tax collection and violent harassment.

The touts are at every park, garage, and highway; they have taken over federal, state, and inner-city roads. Some drivers have lost their lives, and many have sustained lifelong injuries. Lured by the easy pickings, the agberos and cultists have multiplied to thousands, spread to every remote part of the state, and have become a menace, given to violent street fights, petty crimes, and open drug abuse.

The concept of agbero as originally intended was for transport workers to support drivers at the motor parks, particularly inter-state garages. This is where their activities are restricted, and they would be paid for their help. Now, they rarely mobilise passengers, but just extort money.

In 1998/99, the then military administrator, Mohammed Marwa, curtailed their operations, but politicians reactivated them. President Bola Tinubu, governor from 1999 to 2007, is widely blamed for the resurgence and empowerment of the agberos.

Lagos needs to deal decisively with the menace of gridlock. A Lagos-based research firm, Danne Institute, in 2021 said the state loses about N4trillion annually to gridlock. Aside from the high volume of vehicles, the traffic is sometimes caused by road rehabilitation. But more often, it is down to the lawlessness of minibus drivers who drop and pick up passengers on the main carriageways, drive against traffic and generally flout all traffic regulations.

Lagos must enforce its traffic laws and restore sanity to the roads. Unenforced, laws are useless. Commercial motorcyclists are still plying the restricted routes and bridges in several parts of the state, where they constitute a nuisance to other road users and form lynch mobs.

Cultists and street gangs are having a field day. These criminals, who parade themselves as ‘Eiye,’ ‘Aiye’ members, among others, engage in street battles and reprisal killings. Their activities are pronounced in areas like Ojota, Ketu-Mile 12, Somolu, Bariga, Agege, Ikorodu, Ojo, Ebute Meta, Ijora, Mushin and Obalende.

I was in Lagos then. It's obvious whoever made this post is living in error! Marwa used military might and decree which was impossible for Tinubu! Tinubu was only smart enough to get them on his side instead of they being a pain in his government! Op is really unaware of the situation. You only post what will give you an edge, not knowing you are only peddling lies and rumors!

TermuxDarkWeb:
Nonsense. This man is crossing his bandry, first it was the innocent CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele and is EFCC chairman. He's creating Lifetime enemies, but it will surely hit him hard. Am not surprised it's government of Yourba he wants to fix only Yourba Muslims in higher positions. NONSENSE

Small pikin talking obviously...

Risingblue008:
All these figures and signings(like Chelsea)
Is not showing any significance in our daily activities,
Things still remains dsame,
Companies
Offices
Shops are closing down due to the cost of running and if these continues,
Una go knw say buhari try,
The rate of unemployment and crimes will be too much.
All these are social media bullshit,

Are you reasoning with your anus? I just wonder how some of you reason sometimes sef! Shops are closing down You mean since PBAT assume office or what are you saying exactly? Or are you still living in the past administration? Wake up alaye! Tinubu don become president...

VinnyBaba:
Plz, Just stop Fooling Yourself And accept that Obi has Already made a Mark in Nigeria's History! 😏🙂🙂

What mark exactly?

SpecialAdviser:
APC should be ashamed of itself. They are still riding on the ignorance and myopic mindset of Nigerians to fool people around. Honestly when I see what is happening, I come to the conclusion that we have a long way to go in this country. Our trash reasoning is why everything is thrown at us.

A CBN governor colluded with the ex president to redesign naira for no reason. Spent billions to waste money. A new president emerges from the same party and started stupid show to foo.l his supporters by arresting the CBN governor that took order from the president. Wouldn't he have constituted panel of enquiry to publish the whole nasty deals to give us details of what transpired. How much was spent, how much looted and so on and so forth. He wouldn't because the enquiry will come out indicting Buhari himself.

His actions reminds me of early days of Buhari presidency of arresting Olisa Metu, Gausau and all that. Those days of vindictive arrests and prosecution that lead to no where. He is repeating the same nonesetical footsteps of Buhari and his sea of mo.ronic supporters are hailing his stupid behavior.

Tinubu when will you arrest Hadirika abi what is the name of the criminal Nigeria Airways scammer? When will you arrest the NPC census scammer that spent billions without counting any sht? Everyone cannot be fuuls at the same time. That one no be crime abi? Na only Emefiele dey worry you? People hailing all these nonesense are the biggest Shame of the century. Emefiele will go to court. May be incarcerated for a while but will come out smiling. That is always the trend. By that time we have wasted time discussing Emefiele.

Nigerians who do una?

This your confidence in error is epic aswear! You think you are making sense, but far from it!

nnamdi640:
It is easy to say but putting in practice is hard, I don't think you really know what it will result to for you to reject order from above. When you try to reject such order by saying you want to resign then another punishment is awaiting you.

Do you really understand democracy at all? With this your comment, it seems you be juvenile oo! What punishment is there for anyone who resigns honorably? Tell me one!

Buhari isn't my worst nightmare and he needed not to lie

And each Sallah before Ajimobi died, Camels and Cows got taking to Daura which Buhari gladly accept

So no need fooling anyone
...

You are a Muslim and you don't give a fvck about Jesus? Really? I doubt it cause real Muslim even reverence Jesus! Go ask your imam...

Igwe9:
This man that can lie for africa

Mention one lie he told or just shut up forever

An average African will believe he just jazz the chair! Dem go say na juju and failure talisma na him e take nack the chair! I almost felt same way too but I remembered I will tap that chair for the last time if I was him. But OP wait oo, are you sure this was after the inauguration?

bejick:
Is he the only presidential candidate why all of una face the guy, if not for guilty conscience. There is an Atiku somewhere no one is talking about him. All this buhaha will soon end then make all the whole Batist go line up collect ID card for entering bus, going to buy things free and no school fees for their children. We are not yet ready in this country, the hatred for an Igbo man is so real. You want a particular group not to attain a certain height, good them say okay we want out same you say no we are better of as one, which kind wahala be this.

How do what I wrote up there correlate with what you just typed here? Is Atiku going everywhere in black? Or isn't that what my post is about? You think I have time hating a man like Obi? Hate him for what? I don't even envy him sef

Hmmm. This man even has a black native attire ready for the occasion! Hmmm BLACK! DEEP! Very deep. He is in black in every important functions he has attended since his presidential ambition as all can see. Look at how he looks clueless and out of place in these pics.

Tinubu is finished......God works in a mysterious ways!

Na you finish am? Dey there dey joke!

RichBoy247:
Your first statement perfectly describes your family.

You will cry for long. You have been crying since 2015 when we kicked out Goatluck Jonathan, you will still cry for the next 8 years

So you are proud that you removed Jonathan and replace with a tyrant like Buhari? I swear posterity will never forget you! You even have the impetus to bastardise is name? You are happy with where Buhari has brought Nigeria, or you are just happy as an APC supporter? I repeat! Posterity will never forget you!

kettykin:
They were expecting to see someone with outlandish appearance and large number of personal aides but hey they saw a simple gentleman, with no baggage and a simple mien. God bless you Peter Obi for simplifying bigmanship

Simplifying Bigmanship doesn't make one a good man. Bill gate readily comes to mind...

Ihateheadslamer:
Why do cultists dies a miserable death

It's not "dies". It's "die". Take note...

Ihateheadslamer:
Aren't you baffled that our Nigeria politicians prefer the foreign land why Nigeria is burning

Because you are a Nigerian politician then you can't have a happy life right? You can't even travel out for rest?
