People call Tinubu a drug baron, which he is but will ignore the bad doings of who they claim to support. Peter Obi that Anambra people complained about bitterly is now suddenly a saint cause they want to have the bragging rights that an ibo man ruled a so called democratic Nigeria. The same Atiku that was used as a case study by a lady at NSA for corrupt politicians in West Africa. Her research is filled with details on how Atiku has stolen and looted funds in every position he has attained. How he used his wife to acquire properties in the USA with Nigeria money, his Mafia like behavior to handling issues. Mr Rotimi that is known to have stolen funds during his time as governor of rivers and as minister of transportation, what did rivers gain with him as a governor? What did Nigeria gain with him as a minister of transportation? So we have Tinubu the drug baron, Obi the lying viper, Atiku the Mafia looter and a snake with big eyes in Rotimi as candidates for presidency. Are we as a society not ashamed to be arguing and defending criminals? Are the Yorubas telling us Tinubu is the best they can produce? Are the ibos telling us Rotimi and Obi are what their society really envision a leader to be? When will the North be wise and stop supporting their oppressors? Shame should catch us. One day a generation will look back on us and ask what we're this people thinking, how blind and stupid we were despite education and tools available to us to be in this state.

Simple answer is Atiku and Co promised him ministry slots if he gave up his party to them. Gombe obviously is asking for something Atiku and co can't provide, hence this whole party drama. People will blame APC because they can't just admit their so called Messiah is an idiot who can't play politics nor lead. Tinubu is a criminal, that's 100% true, but difference between Tinubu and the opposition is he knows how to play the dirty game called politics. We should remove emotions from politics and we will see all this people at the top are all the same. People complained during OBJ time, called him all names, then Johnny came and people were saying OBJ was better and was insulting Johnny, then Buhari and the same thing was repeated, same thing now with Tinubu, and we will keep on repeating this cycle of praising the past leader and condemning the current one cause we the people are too emotional in a game that requires critical thinking

ADC problem is easy to solve. They just need to swallow their egos and come together as one. The current chairman definitely wants something the new crew doesn't want to give him. They should give it to him and he will leave the seat for David. What is going on here is just clash of interests. Same thing happened in LP that destroyed it. The biggest mistake PDP made was having too many top members with different interests. APC has top dogs with the same interest. By now ADC should have a clear favourite that everyone should have been campaigning for even without a primary election. But now we have a battle between Atiku and Obi where each faction will waste time and resources trying to outdo each other. Then after the primaries people expect that everyone from this two factions will actually work together. The Abuja elections is a clear indication they are not united. They were busy blasting each other on social media for the poor results. This is not how opposition work. The opposition in Nigeria currently is the worst in history. They feel like people who are just there to fill the roles of opposition while secretly working for the party in power. Just like how companies in the USA will create a rival company to maximize profits, while the public believes there is no monopoly.

If he couldn't see them properly then he should have sent his VP or Senate president to see them properly. Him have a busy schedule is not an excuse. The people of Jos should come out and publicly denounce anyone holding power in that state and demand their resignation. All parties and personnel of those parties should be blacklisted. The people should select someone for themselves without inec and sort their issues out. The people in power are just creatures who look like human beings but are not, I mean that for APC, ADC, LP and PDP. All should burn at the stake.

It feels like the opposition in Nigeria are controlled opposition and not true ones. Though they are thieves, they often love to leave a loophole in any opposition party they go to that will cause internal issues. If Mr Nafiu said he has not resigned and the documents were forged then ADC should do an internal investigation among themselves. This is the downside of hijacking existing parties, you can not expect everyone to surrender what they have been building. The reason Tinubu APC feels like a one party system is because the opposition he is facing are the worst opposition in Nigeria history. The most disorganized, the most selfish driven, the most confused. They act like they are controlled opposition meant to fool the public. You can't tell me with amount of resources and influence the opposition has they can't create a new party from scratch built on their own principles. ADC was greatly unknown before they went in, the time they used buying people out should have been allocated to setting something new without any resistance.

Nigerians should just accept this people in top leadership positions are all the same and should be all removed if we are to go forward. Let's try people with no ties to the current pool of leaders and political parties we have. Instead recycling the same set of people who once dined and drink together. People who will insult themselves today and praise themselves tomorrow. It's clear insults is like friendly banters among themselves and not taken as serious criticism.

It’s “fake and fabricated” until you personally loose someone to it. Then it becomes real. 5 years this year I buried someone that died from it

It was all fake and fabricated. Hospitals worldwide just diagnosed everyone with a fever as COVID 19.. The vaccine has been abandoned, disease vanished, the people who lead the red wave in USA have been apologized to as being right about the whole thing. Just cause a phoney hospital in the name of looking for who COVID 19 funds lied to you doesn't mean that's what happened. I call that period an era medical graduates decided to be stupid cause of pressure. Everything taught about how bacteria and viruses work were thrown out the door. Same way people consumed salt during Ebola without researching anything just cause people said it worked until people started dying from high salt intake. UN and WHO have both quickly abandoned whatever COVID 19 was and moved on.

This people are teaching the young generation it's okay to lie for views, clout and attention. Social media is obviously too hot to handle for most people. We need to start heavily punishing people like this.

Sonnobax15:
Which normal bad day? . Come ughelli and warri come ask Keke riders wetin Dem dey pass through whether your ears no go full with different complains.

The truth is that these guys are passing through hell at this moment. I knew what I experienced during times like these during my time as a Keke rider. Who get the Keke wey you dey balance no go wan hear your own story ,cuz definitely he dey expect you to return with him money,and not an empty pocket filled up with plenty excuses.

I live in warri, my neighbor drives a keke, my friend is a keke mechanic, I go to his shop and Keke riders share their daily experiences on the job. The original video is obviously lying for content. No Keke man is carrying home 50 naira on a bad day except they have an accident or get caught by police riding without papers

AdolfHitlerxXx:
She's the one. If a paid employee ever wrote that rudely, he / she would be fired.

Education back then was of higher standards than now especially for a silver spoon like her.

People hired to handle social media accounts respond as they are told to. I have seen worse. Try following social media managers groups online and see what they talk about. Some employees don't care as long as the person operates within agreed terms and conditions. You insult her they are free once in awhile to insult back. Very soon AI will take over that and reply as they program it to.

Obviously not her handling her account. But it's shameful how some of us act because of political hatred. The same people accusing other tribes of corruption will ignore the corruption going on among them. If truly one tribe or region had the answer to Nigeria problems we would have seen mass development in that region.

One Chinese professor had predicted this at least a couple of years ago if am not wrong.
I thought he was mad, perhaps am wrong.

Not all he says is true but he did get the trump winning right and trump going to war with Iran also right, the last one is Iran winning the war. Strangely this is like his first set predictions he has gotten right

And who caused this high rate of immorality? Same previous generations who complain. We copied everything bad about Western and black america culture thinking it was cool, classy and refined.

Nothing wrong with solar. Nigeria has two main problems, cheap customers who want the very best while cutting cost and corners and greedy and poor installers who are into the business just to money instead of delivering quality services. Maybe we need a commission to vet installers. But knowing Nigeria that commission will end up corrupt after some time.

Morocco are not true Africans and behave like colonizers. The script was for them to win it but they were out to shame. The world sees Senegal as Africa champion. It's high time another body is created and Morocco removed. They should go play Asian league.

Nigerian hasn't produced any leader near the Big daddy of Singapore

goslowgoslow:
So people cannot have a contrary opinion without being a Moslem? The majority of Americans who are Christians are even against this war. Na una wey possibly dey Nigeria dey carry for head.

You can't stop a fool from being a fool. It's like David Hundeyin said. Nigerians don't like to think from themselves. They accept everything western world says. If any person questions those western countries you are labeled a conspiracy theorist or a terrorist supporter. Just don't waste your time educating them. Best you can do is let the next generation know who the real enemy is

A competition of two legs. From your logic why didn't Dortmund go through after winning the first leg? Football has some of the most delusional people you will see in the name of football banter. Tottenham a team fighting relegation in EPL made it to the round of 16 in the champion league. Crazy part is the same Tottenham won the Europa why in the similar situation. A 2-0 result and Liverpool are through, 1-0 and arsenal is through, if by some miracle Newcastle wins the second leg they are through. Chelsea, Man city and Tottenham are the ones with mountains to climb. The crazy part is all 6 English team made it through the group phase. Why didn't all the Spanish teams, all the Italian teams, all the German teams, all the French teams make it through? Let's forget banter and wait until the competition is over to judge who did well. PSG who won it last year were written off. The Barcelona people said will win it only ended in the semi. Inter Milan that removed Barca went on to have a horrible final.

Can someone please educate me on what happened to the globacom network?

This business was flourishing and I was proud that we had a Nigerian telecommunication service provider who even expanded into Ghana, but all of a sudden, it seems like they dropped the ball and the network got drowned.

In most places in Nigeria, there is barely glo service, in Ghana, i think its totally off now.

What happen to glo? is it political or mismanagement or some people prefer to have foreigners in this telecommunication sector?
Thanks

Like most Nigerian owned business it was created to make money. As long as they make a profit they don't care. They have no interest in challenging or being innovative. They only act when they notice sudden drops in profits. Someone created a thread once begging communication engineers and technicians to create something that will force this major network companies in Nigeria to behave like how MTN had to adjust when starlink came into the market.

In the other countries we are doing japa to, has inflation outstripped general wage level and complicated by unemployment as is the case in extreme poverty Nigeria

Those same country complain as well. UK nurses have gone on strikes multiple times cause of wages, teacher union have gone on strike multiple times. Nigerians greatly suffer from inferior complex. From the day we are born we have been told western countries are heaven and Africa is hell fire. Our education system and religious system are aimed at programming us to japa. The same Nigeria we say is bad is where foreigners come and make it and go. Most poor Nigerians are from the North. In the south there is no money but hotels are booked on the weekends, clubs are booming, prostitution is a booming industry. Major importation of goods is entering the country, you find a lot of Nigerians on the Internet being able to afford data. Most modern Nigerians are just frustrated cause they sold a lie that going to school and getting a certificate was going to make life easy for them. Even in the same abroad they run to they end with depression, mass loneliness, doing third class citizens jobs. When they get to a certain advanced age, thanks to social media they come online to rant about how they feel they have not accomplished anything or how their spouse left them due to difficulties faced. I work IT in an international community, just like we rant about our society, they rant. The difference is they don't see going to another nation as the fix, they try to educate themselves on why their society changes and how they adapt or change it back. In Japan what did the men do when wages couldn't support a family? They gave up on getting married and having children. There was a report that was out that Caucasian men in western countries have reduced the numbers or children they have or just don't have one. Resulting increase demand of migrants to fill up work force. The number of people on social support keeps on increasing, is that a good sign? Social experts have predicted a global collapse is coming soon. USA has already rolled out lab grown and synthetic foods to try and keep up with the food demands of the low income class. It's even on tik tok, people in USA have been posting about how the standards of food have slowly degraded. You have your phone and the Internet. Research global inflation and it's impact.

Why is that some Nigerians judge Nigeria inflation like it's an isolated thing? What country can purchase the same things their currency could in the 1900s in 2020s? Inflation is a global thing. No car company will sell a vehicle to you with the same marketing strategies as they did in the past. And the funny thing is despite the inflation people still buy the latest vehicles.

When corruption doesn't favor you, you destroy properties. The same youths who are complaining about being angry with start supporting the government once they get a brown envelope.

Whoever is lying to him that he is an important as he think he is should be studied. It's not easy to brainwash a person like this.

It feels like this going to court after elections is just a way to launder money into the lawyers account. Our politicians can not be this foolish to be wasting money on cases like this.

Who told that lady APC leaders did not come out for their candidate? While ADC was playing online politics, APC was playing grassroots politics. The core voters in Nigeria are not found on social media.

Use less yahoo boys

Na so one call me video call as Peter P-square

I shock o! But then there are apps these anim*als use these days for yahoo

I wan curse them but I just remember say na evil Dey thrive for Nigeria now

Zero integrity, Zero morals. A government that gave Reno and Bwala appointments is a confirmation they are dubious

From FG to the streets. Evil pays in Nigeria under APC

Evil has always paid in all political parties in Nigeria and since the creation of the country, social media has just exposed the lies we were told growing up. A lot of the old millionaires in Nigeria are criminals who benefited from how easy it was to hide your activities back then. Nowadays people ask questions and will do research on your business claims, then quickly share their findings online.

After the first and second world war, Russian products ( Exporting mostly)was banned most especially in Africa, any Africa countries that try to do any deal with Russia would be sanctioned.

Key Export Sectors (2024-2026):
Agricultural Products: Russia is a dominant supplier of wheat to countries like Egypt, Algeria, Sudan, and Nigeria. Exports of poultry, dry milk, and fats/oils have also seen significant growth.
Fertilizers: PhosAgro is a major supplier of phosphate-based fertilizers to over 21 African nations.
Energy & Machinery: In addition to oil and gas, Russia exports machinery and transport equipment.
Defense & Arms: Military-technical cooperation has surpassed Soviet-era levels, with over 340 joint defense projects in progress or development as of early 2026.
Regional Focus: North Africa remains the largest market, but exports are expanding into East and West Africa, supported by new maritime logistics routes to Nigeria.
Key Trends:
Increased Trade Value: The total trade turnover reached $24.5 billion in 2024, with Russian exports far exceeding imports from the continent.
Logistics Expansion: New, faster, and cheaper container shipping routes, such as those to Nigeria, are being established to boost non-resource exports.
Military Focus: Russia has prioritized arms sales to African nations, with contracts exceeding $4 billion.

Nigeria top imports from Russia were Chapter 10 - Cereals (71.46%), Chapter 31 - Fertilizers (10.95%), Chapter 27 - Mineral Fuels, Mineral Oils And (8.90%), Chapter 03 - Fish And Crustaceans, Molluscs And (6.23%) and Chapter 99 - Other (1.53%) in June 2023 to June 2025.

As the world’s largest wheat exporter and one of the top producers of grain, Russia plays a decisive role in global food security and agricultural trade. Its policies, infrastructure investments, and international partnerships directly shape supply flows from the Black Sea to markets across the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.

At the heart of these developments stands the RusGrain Union, an organization that recently expanded its scope to unite both exporters and producers. Speaking exclusively to Miller Magazine, Ksenia Bolomatova, Executive Director of the Russian Union of Grain Exporters and Producers (RusGrain Union), outlines their mission, the infrastructure challenges, and the opportunities on the horizon.

“Our task today is not limited to advancing Russian grain and pulses into the international market,” Bolomatova emphasizes. “The Union is involved in ensuring sustainable food security in the country and in the world.” With Russia expected to export over 40 million tons of wheat this season, she affirms the country’s leadership position: “Russia will remain the global wheat export leader, without a doubt.”

Looking ahead, Bolomatova points to Africa as a particularly dynamic market, noting that Russian wheat exports to the continent have grown by 30% across six seasons. “Africa’s market has strong growth potential due to population growth and rising purchasing power,” she explains, while underlining the need for infrastructure, storage, and processing investments to realize that potential.

Beyond exports, she highlights the strategic importance of the planned BRICS grain exchange, backed by Russian President Vladimir Putin. Bolomatova emphasized that the initiative would help BRICS countries form independent and fair price indicators, making global agricultural pricing more objective and strengthening food security.

Ksenia Bolomatova, Executive Director of RusGrain Union, shared her insights with Miller Magazine, discussing the Union’s expanded mission, Russia’s grain export goals, and the strategic initiatives shaping the future of global grain trade. Below are her reflections.

Africa has become an increasingly important destination for Russian wheat. Could you highlight the dynamics shaping this growth?

Africa imports about 60 million tons of wheat annually — nearly double the amount from 20 years ago. Russia has expanded exports to Africa by 30% over six seasons, accounting for a third of the African wheat market today across 30 countries. We’ve seen sharp export increases to countries like Algeria, Libya, Kenya, Morocco, Tunisia, and Tanzania. Africa’s market has strong growth potential due to population growth and rising purchasing power.

However, Africa is diverse, with five distinct subregions requiring different approaches. We engage directly with North African countries, while cooperation with Central and Southern African nations often involves international traders due to infrastructure constraints. To expand Russian grain supplies, a comprehensive approach addressing logistics, storage, and processing is essential — and steps are underway in this direction

grandstar:
Nothing stops Russia from exporting electronics globally.

Russia is a commodity exporter. There is no brainwashing here.

Putin is more interested in Russia living off the proceeds from commodities, especially petroleum.

Second, Putin is more interested in fighting with the West, rather making it an economic powerhouse.

To your first point, Russia doesn't need to sell electronics like the West to be considered a serious exporter. Russia, like you said they export commodities rather than finished products, crude oil accounts for the majority at around 49%. They export flour, wheat, engines, ores, fertilizers, charcoal, etc.

Your second point isn't backed by facts. Russia currency has been the best performing currency. The proxy war by the west in Ukraine was started years ago, Russia finally acted and now Russia can't defend it's interest.

Someone should please recommend a reliable streaming app to me.

Sportzfy is what I use. Very good and has quality options

Why are you gate keeping information. If you are serious it won't be anything more than adult chat moderation gigs which most don't hire Nigerians. Except you are looking for a subcon to operate an account you already bought.

Freshandfitpod:
of course I have all the files to backed the claims

It would be nice if you share them for the public to be aware

Freshandfitpod:
He recruit Africans for Russian war by deceiving them with a Job offer only for them ending up at the battlefield, that is how he makes him bread reason he is pushing Russian propaganda non-stop.

Can you back your allegations with proof? I'm curious to know
