Obidients have been cursing and swearing for Wike's downfall since his days as governor. One has to ask, which god have they been praying to? Because the requests don't seem to be getting through.
The same god Sheriff prayed to a few years ago.
anonimi: No room for Wike, Fayose in PDP again —Sheriff
Also reacting to the judgment, its apparent beneficiary, Senator Sheriff, vowed to put in place a machinery that would not give room to people like Governors Nyesom Wike and Ayodele Fayose of Rivers and Ekiti states, respectively in any future arrangement in the party.
“I will engineer a restructuring of PDP such that characters like Wike and Fayose cannot find a way through to attain any position of prominence in our party in the future. They have brought shame and agony through the application of their crude and godless politics which is at variance with the principles upon which our founding fathers built our great party.
“We must find a way to sieve things so that only men of character and integrity can come through for positions of responsibility at all levels of our political engagement in the country.
“We must urgently steer the ship of PDP clear of the path of infamy which Wike and Fayose has brought our party, making Nigerians to mistaken PDP as a training ground for thugs. That is the urgent task we have. We cannot continue to advertise thug brand and expect Nigerians to take us seriously,” he said.
stuffs2002: * How did you know it was Fulanis that kidnapped those kids? * How did you know those guys are not Fulanis
You dey mind the guy? He does not know that Fulani people are the most peaceful in Nigeria, according to Buhari and the master strategist who begged him out of retirement to make Jonathan a one term president.
The timelines are very suspicious, to say the least.
From the kidnap that happened a day after Makinde formally declared his interest to be president, to this quick trial and conviction with life sentence rather than death.
I wonder what Wike's threat of putting fire into Oyo state has to do with all these, seeing how A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC is filled with the most wicked and demonic politicians who play politics with the wellbeing and security of Nigerians.
anonimi: What group of politicians is more wicked than A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC
Tinubu is on a mission to strangulate the common man in Nigeria.
If smart Lagosians have allowed him do that to them for 27 years, what can 200 million mumus do about the master strategist's plan to destroy Nigeria with extreme poverty, insecurity, tax burden, debt burden etc
jojothaiv: I like honest beings and Jima sun or whatever is her name is an example of one, the true nature of most women which is hypergamy is loud here and I must commend her, so many women want to be in her shoes but most of them are afraid of the clapback, so Jima sun, go girl, you rock.
After all it's your life.
After all it's her LONELY life since more Nigerians are increasingly being made extreme poverty paupers by APC progreThief politicians, who fail to create promised jobs , but want everyone to fry akara to generate revenue for their own luxury lifestyle.
Stephen0mozzy: By the definition of "Government", e resemble say we get?
If we NIGERIANS no get government for local, state and federal levels, na who get the fault?
Who is ULTIMATELY responsible for having a government, and the type of government that we have? Politicians or the people who have sovereignty and temporarily allow a few people exercise it on their behalf

He doesn’t know the cost of life, the price of the bean, of the fish, of the flour, of the rent, of the shoes and of the medicine, all depends on political decisions. The political illiterate is so stupid that he is proud and swells his chest saying that he hates politics.
The slowpoke doesn’t know that, from his political ignorance is born the prostitute, the abandoned child, and the worst thieves of all, the bad politician, corrupted and flunky of the national and multinational companies.”
You are very correct about the man who mocks the extreme poverty APC has plunged us into with their palliative sharing policies, as opposed to PDP's job-creating deregulation and privatisation policies for prosperity, peace, security, cheap petrol, cheap dollars, low debt burden etc.

Nigeria Boko Haram: Militants 'technically defeated' - Buhari Published 24 December 2015
Nigeria has "technically won the war" against Islamist Boko Haram militants, President Muhammadu Buhari says.
He told the BBC that the militant group could no longer mount "conventional attacks" against security forces or population centres.
It had been reduced to fighting with improvised explosives devices (IED) and remained a force only in its heartland of Borno state, he said.
Boko Haram has been described as one of the world's deadliest terror groups.
Critics of the government argue that it has exaggerated the scale of its success against the militants, and that each time the army claims to have wiped out Boko Haram, the militants have quietly rebuilt.
Nnamdd1: The Nigerian Army has handed over the flag of Boko Haram that was recovered from “camp zero” in Sambisa forest to President Muhammadu Buhari.
Major General Lucky Irabor, Theatre commander of Operation Lafiya Dole handed over the flag to Buhari at exactly 10:30 pm on Friday, December 30th, at this year’s regimental dinner organised by the presidential brigade of guards.
Speaking at Friday’s dinner, Irabor said troops arrested 1,240 suspected Boko Haram members during a mop-up operation inside Sambisa.
In his response, Buhari, who recounted how he was nearly killed even before he collected his first salary in the army stated that keeping Nigeria united was paramount.
“I believe you are here because you want to be here and you cannot complain. We will do our best to build the national institutions in the country,” he said.
“There are 250 ethnic groups, so keeping Nigeria one is a task that must be done. So even for a personal reason, you must make sure this country stays one and remain strong.”
On his part, Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Tukur Buratai assured Nigerians that they will continue their onslaught in the north-east.
NwokoloOwa: After he will tell us that the tax in Nigeria is killing him. When he is really the one killing us.
Just look at how our blood is making him stupendously rich
How is he the master strategist who promised to crash petrol price when it was N185 but has failed to do so, three years after he was allowed to grab power and hit the ground running
Deltafirstson: Although the pump price of fuel was N197 when President Bola Tinubu took over on May 29, 2023, the product now sells for N617 per litre – less than two months after.
In his inaugural address, Tinubu announced that subsidy was gone, fulfilling a promise that all leading presidential candidates made during the campaign.
Nigerians have been lamenting the hardship occasioned by fuel price hike. Amid the lamentation, a video where Tinubu campaigned to slash the price of fuel went into circulation.
Checks by Daily Trust affirmed the authenticity of the video uploaded on the YouTube page of Channels Television.
At his campaign rally in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital, on January 25, 2023, Tinubu spoke on a number of issues, but those of fuel scarcity and naira redesign made the headlines.
However, Tinubu who spoke in Yoruba language, also assured the crowd that though people were saying petrol price would hit N200, it would be reviewed downward under him.
“The great Nigerian youths, the great Nigerian students, the confident Nigerian youths. This is a revolution. This election is a revolution. They are plotting, but they will fail. They said fuel price will increase and reach N200 per litre. Go and relax, we will bring it down,” he had said in the 7th minute of the video.

Why did you leave out the worst rogue of all, JagaBandeet of Borgu
Another sakamanje scam from the master strategist of balablu bulaba fake announcements.
Why should anyone believe this from someone who has:
- failed to crash petrol price, - failed to deliver N300/$1 in the short term, - failed to create 50 million jobs, and even - failed to pay salary awards to federal workers since October 2023?
Does Tinubu think that we are all part of Lagbaja's 200 million mumus ni?
Dshocker: Bob risky is a fuul, but he doesn't know it yet.
Below is his old picture, before he bleached his skin with CaroWhite
Are his customers also fuuuls, just like the tribalistic followers of our politicians, who use zoning and rotation to share the national cake of corruption, thereby depriving the society of basic things like water supply
500 gallons of water go for N20k. Multiply by 4 in a month, that's N80k. By extrapolation, that's N960k in a year on water alone. Why? Because the governor believes that clean and accessible water is the least of his worries. Yet they prance around like Enugu is Abuja even though the red muddy soil will have residents looking like they went tomb-raiding at night.
But then, considering where it was before Peter Mba, one can understand the accolades being that he moved the town from 16th Century to 17th Century but not anywhere near 20th Century. 21st Century is a stretch. EEDC? The worst of all.
The Permanent Secretary, Office of Drainage Services and Water Resources in Lagos State, Mahmood Adegbite, has said that people drilling borehole in the Lekki axis of the state is probably drinking ‘’shit water.”
While speaking at a stakeholders meeting in the state recently, Adegbite noted that contaminated boreholes in Lekki pose health risk and added that treatment of waste water would eradicate any form of disease that may arise from it.
He said, “On waste water treatment, I will say that everyone digging borehole within the Lekki axis is probably drinking what I will call ‘shit water.’
Satazaa: Mark my words guys, Dangote will convinietly hit the 100 billion dollars networth mark in his lifetime, He is the best thing that has ever happened to the black race except Mandela and Martin Luther King
Is that why you are working hard with other Nigerians for a return to PDP prosperity, peace, security, cheap petrol, cheap dollars, low unemployment, low debt burden etc that was driven by deregulation and privatisation policies
anonimi: Neo-black Problem: Must Blacks Be Ruled by Whites in Order to Prosper?
In short, the neo-black dilemma may be framed as follows: is it better to live under white rule without political dignity but with basic life-sustaining standards for many;
or to live under black rule with illusory political dignity and without basic life- sustaining standards for the majority? @ @ The path forward for Africa lies in cultivating higher and adequate levels of personal and communal agential integrity as well as full personal responsibility and productivity. Not to mention creativity (including epistemic creativity), productive justice (such as merit and freedom), harmony and reconciliation at local and international levels, and a proper domestication of capitalism and other related values and institutions.
Africa must stop wasting her time on dreams of socialism because it is a system of wealth distribution primarily. Whereas, capitalism is a system of wealth creation primarily, and wealth has to be produced before it can be distributed.
Congratulations to us Nigerians also that Jonathan and PDP's deregulation and privatisation politicians did not cancel the refinery licence in 2012 after APC propagandist liars played politics with Ojota protests to #OccupyNigeria.
Otherwise, the worst progreThief politicians of APC would still be doing us wayo with NNPC refineries.
The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation has announced that the Port Harcourt and Warri refineries have been successfully re-streamed after a nine-month rehabilitation exercise conducted by its in-house engineers and technicians.
The corporation, in a statement, noted that both plants commenced preliminary production of petroleum products after successful test-runs, adding that while PHRC was ramping up its operation to about 60 per cent of its 210,000 barrels per day capacity, WRPC production was projected to hit 80 per cent of its installed 125,000bpd capacity.
The NNPC said the Port Harcourt refinery was projected to boost the nation’s local refining capacity with a product yield of five million litres of petrol per day, while Warri refinery would contribute 3.5 million litres of petrol.
Providing insight into the rehabilitation exercise, the NNPC noted that it had to adopt the phased rehabilitation strategy after the Original Refinery Builders, who were initially contacted for the project came up with unfavorable terms.
It said, “Though a decision was taken in 2011 to rehabilitate all the refineries using the ORB of each of the refineries, we were impelled to switch strategy after the ORBs declined participation and nominated some partners in their stead who came up with outrageously unfavorable terms.”
The NNPC stated that the nominated partners, as sole-bidders, came up with humongous price offers after two years of thorough and exhaustive scope of work definition and price negotiations.
It added that the proxies were also unwilling to provide post rehabilitation performance guarantees.
The corporation said, “The phased rehabilitation strategy which entailed phased and simultaneous rehabilitation of all the refineries using in-house and locally available resources in line with the spirit and letter of the Nigerian Content Law, also involved the use of Original Equipment Manufacturer representatives to effect major equipment overhaul and rehabilitation.”
The national oil firm said the phased rehabilitation programme, which started in October 2014 after the required funding stream was established, created a 70 per cent reduction in costs which helped largely in mitigating the financing challenges of refinery rehabilitation.
It observed that with the successful re-streaming of the PHRC and WRPC, attention has now moved to the 110,000 barrels per day Kaduna Refining and Petrochemicals Company which was billed to come on stream soon.
saintopus: Dec 06, 2024 The PH Refinery ships its first export of petroleum products to Dubai.
The company is expected to load the cargo in the coming days onboard the Wonder Star MR1 ship, signalling the commencement of operations at the plant and the exportation of petroleum products.
The ship will load 15,000 metric tons of the product, which translates to about 13.6 million litres.
Although the volume coming from the NNPC into the global market is still small, the development has the potential to impact the Very Low Sulphur Fuel Oil (VLSFO) benchmarks in the future while changing the market realities for Atlantic Basin exporters into Nigeria and other regions.
The sulfur content of the export by NNPC stands at 0.26 per cent per wt and a 0.918 g/ml density at 15°C, according to Kpler, a data and analysis company.
The cargo was reportedly sold at an $8.50/t discount to the NWE 0.5 per cent benchmark on a Free on Board (FOB) basis.
Kpler reported that the development would help displace imports from traditional suppliers in Africa and Europe, as Nigeria’s falling clean product (CPP) imports are already decreasing, dragging imports into the wider West Africa region lower as well.

At least her akara sellers will pay enough taxes for her family to buy more luxury things.
chisomkachy: Nigerian President Bola Tinubu’s first supplementary budget includes a fleet of SUVs for himself and his wife, a presidential yacht and the renovation of his villa amid a cost-of-living crisis for some of the poorest people in the world.
The proposal — which seeks additional funding beyond the annual budget approved by Tinubu’s predecessor — comes as the government asks Nigerians to persevere through pain caused in part by a raft of economic reforms ushered in by the new president. Africa’s most populous country faces rampant unemployment, soaring food prices and a plummeting currency.
Federal lawmakers approved the president’s request for extra spending on Thursday, but eliminated the provision of 5 billion naira ($6.01 million) to buy a presidential yacht. Instead, they doubled the allocation to a student loan fund to 10 billion naira, according Abubakar Bichi, chairman of an appropriations committee in the House of Representatives.
The lawmakers approved 1.5 billion-naira proposed to purchase SUVs for the office of First Lady Oluremi Tinubu — an amount larger than that allocated to many individual federal colleges. The supplementary budget also proposes almost 6 billion naira to purchase SUVs for the presidency — more than the amount initially allocated to fund a student loan program for poor families.
Peasant farming is how supposedly brilliant mba wants to have a $30 billion economy?

Is that because he has no idea how to employ teachers for the free education of all children like progressive APC’s Tinubu promised 27 years ago and failed to do, despite increasing tax burden on people to grow Lagos state budget 100 times to N4.2 trillion?
Onegai: I'm not a fan of children without stability. And biblically, even Apostle Paul says it's better to remain unmarried, no matter the gender.
There are modern way to have kids without a baby mum/dad, rather than doing what mem do and let a woman get pregnant before suddenly getting cold feet (meanwhile they knew marriage was never on the cards).
Children and spouses are love, sacrificial love. They're meant to reflect God's love for us, to give without demanding in return. Get a pet if you choose to. I do know people who are unmarried and childless and Nigerian, so eveeyo choose their path.

Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister for the Economy, Mr. Wale Edun made this known at the end of the inaugural Federal Executive Council meeting in Abuja. Mr. Edun said that the benefit of the subsidy removal will be plough back into various sectors to improve business environment for local and foreign investment. He added that with the increased revenue from subsidy removal, various palliatives have been made available to cushion its effect on a short, medium and long-term basis.
Ofunaofu: Report: Current Govt Added More Debt in Two Years Than Nigeria Accumulated in 55 Years
• Decries Nigeria’s debt service-to-revenue ratio
•Urges FG to declare fiscal emergency
A new policy brief has warned that Nigeria’s worsening debt profile and weak revenue generation have pushed the country into a dangerous fiscal position, with the current administration accumulating more debt in two years than Nigeria recorded during its first 55 years after independence.
The report, released by the Alliance for Economic Research and Ethics LTD/GTE, a Nigerian policy think tank, argued that the country’s debt crisis has evolved into a governance and revenue emergency, as debt servicing obligations now exceed the federal government’s retained earnings. > > According to the think tank, Nigeria’s public debt rose sharply from N87.38 trillion in June 2023 to N159.28 trillion by the end of 2025, with President Bola Tinubu’s administration accounting for about N65.9 trillion of the increase within its first two years in office.
The organisation in the brief titled: “Nigeria Is Borrowing to Breathe—and the Clock Is Ticking”, noted that Nigeria accumulated only about N12.06 trillion in debt from independence in 1960 up to 2015, meaning the current administration added more than five times that amount in just 24 months.
The report stated that while previous governments also contributed significantly to the country’s rising debt burden, the speed of accumulation under the current administration had intensified concerns over fiscal sustainability.
“President Bola Tinubu’s administration has added a further N65.9 trillion in just two years. To put that in perspective: it took Nigeria’s first 55 years of independence to accumulate N12 trillion in debt. The current administration has added more than five times that amount in 24 months,” it argued.
It recalled that Nigeria briefly became almost debt-free externally after the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo secured an $18 billion Paris Club debt relief package in 2005 and paid $12 billion to extinguish about $30 billion in external obligations.
Prospect of a possible alliance between the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN and Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, was dashed yesterday in Kano as the leader of the party and former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu described CPC as parading “expired leadership.”
Tinubu told ACN supporters in Kano during the party’s Presidential rally that: “What Nigerians need now is a transformation in leadership” as obtained in the advanced economy.
The two-term Governor of Lagos State explained that the leadership of ACN was offering Nigeria the brilliance of Nuhu Ribadu who, he said, is in the class of Nicolas Sarkozi of France, David Cameron of Britain, Medvedev of Russia and Barack Obama of the United States of America.
“What has CPC got to offer? We certainly don’t need expired leadership as we are offering the best in terms of brilliance, courage and patriotism in the class of Sarkozi of France, David Cameron of Britain and Barack Obama of the USA.”
Tinubu’s position came on the heels of Ribadu’s declaration penultimate week in Kaduna when he hinted during a political rally of a joint ticket between the two opposition parties to confront the dominance of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
The national leader of ACN criticised President Goodluck Jonathan for shying away from the national debate held last Friday, stressing that”that singular act exposed Jonathan as a coward who has nothing to offer.”
Hemanwel: Politics aside, let's talk commonsense: if you claim to be in Accord party, and you're vying to be reelected as governor on the party's platform, why then would you support another candidate against your party's presidential candidate?

Who is the APGA presidential candidate supported by Soludo? Who is the communist LP labourers’ candidate supported by Otti?

uzohrome: Tinubu might have his lapses but seriously he is taking bold step in a progressive policy making. His next 4 years will transform this country , I love the way he fights corruption as well. Insecurity is been dealt with as we speak
If the master strategist of balablu bulaba Nigerian politics has failed, in 27 years of 100 times budget increase, to transform Lagos state into a progressive place in basic services and utilities, then why should a sane person want him to stay another term to worsen APC extreme poverty and insecurity shege than he has already done?

Don't enter and later on be selfish and say "I wan enjoy myself and my money" then expect your children to forgive you in your old age.
Stay single, stay childless
Does that advice apply to both men and women who feel entitled in marriage without bringing their own contribution to the family in different ways?
Are there other ways to stay single and have children without the drama of baby daddy or baby mama?
Finally, what is the benefit of having children if you devote your life to them but they don’t have your time in old age? Is it not better to have a dog that will be loyal and stay with you until death?
