Confirm4real: But you don't partake in the Harshness
Of course Oshiomole’s Assembly of Past Criminals, APC leaders looters don’t partake in the harshness created by their endless increase in tax burden on the masses.
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.
Is this why he is a failure in basic government services and utilities, like all the looters who are hailed cluelessly as tribalistic leaders by unevolved zoning and rotation advocates of turn by turn sharing of the national cake of corruption
IamCookie: People like you cannot even succeed when given a street - CDA chairman position but talk down on serious and more knowledgeable people that knows what they are doing because social media available yoi the opportunity.
Imagine!
What success has Shettima achieved in federal government since 2023?
What success did he achieve in Borno state for eight years in water supply, education for all children and other basic government services and public utilities, provided by well paid civil servants?
Imagine what harshness should achieve in governance, based on revenue raised from people and received on their behalf for years!!!
Why is there so much insecurity despite this balablu bulaba noise on harshness and promises of crushing terrorists since before Tinubu begged Buhari out of retirement to make him APC change messianic president, so he could have his own turn in 2023
The harshness is evident only in conscienceless fake announcements like these ones below.
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.
Iyabo Obasanjo writes father, says: ‘Dear Daddy, you don’t own Nigeria
In what is turning out to be a season of open letters, daughter of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Iyabo, has ruled out further communication with her father till death, describing him as a liar, manipulator, two-faced hypocrite determined to foist on President Goodluck Jonathan what no one would contemplate with him as president.
Senator Iyabo Obasanjo in a letter to her father accused him of having an egoistic craving for power and living a life where only men of low esteem and intellect thrive.
In the 11-page letter dated December 16, 2013 exclusively obtained by Vanguard, Iyabo accused her father of orchestrating a third term for himself as president, cruelty to family members, abandonment of children and grandchildren, and also, a legendary reputation of maltreatment of women.
Iyabo who forswore further political engagements in Nigeria denied any political motive for her missive, and described Nigeria as a country where her father and his ilk have helped to create a situation where smart, capable people bend down to imbeciles to survive. She particularly noted her experience as chairman of the Senate Committee on Health when she led the committee on a retreat appropriated for in the budget only for her to be prosecuted for it.
Atiku won’t be on the ballot. APC Twitter supporter Amupitan’s INEC and Wike’s courts have been given the assignment to cripple and crush ADC by all means necessary. So far they have done an amazingly excellent job on their assignments.
iwaeda: Wike Boasts Of Helping APC Use Judiciary To Kill Osun LG Funds Case, Warns Party Leaders Against Ingratitude
Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has openly boasted that he assisted certain elements within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in deploying the judiciary to frustrate the Osun State local government allocation lawsuit.
In a video now circulating widely on social media and obtained by SaharaReporters, Wike made the claim while addressing a crowd in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
The former Rivers governor accused the APC National Secretary, Senator Ajibola Basiru, of benefitting from judicial actions against the Osun State Government without knowing those who did the work behind the scenes.
The suit in question led to the withholding of local government funds in Osun State, a development widely seen as targeting the administration of Governor Ademola Adeleke as opposition in the state.
Wike, who spoke angrily, suggested that the court action supporting the APC’s position against the Osun government did not happen by chance, boasting that powerful political forces worked quietly to ensure the outcome.
“Don’t take our support for Mr President for granted,” Wike warned, in an apparent message to APC leaders defending Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara. “You have to be careful about the statements you make. You have to be very careful.”
He accused Basiru of political ingratitude, claiming the APC was enjoying in Osun State without understanding who engineered their advantage.
“Today, you are enjoying in Osun. You don’t know those who did the work,” Wike said. “You are opening your mouth to talk about Rivers State.”

anonimi: The eyesore on Bourdillon Road 2nd January 2025
Beyond his neighbours, there is something about the sight of people hanging around a president’s residence that does not speak well of his leadership capabilities. Maybe no one has nudged him to see it, but the impression that spectacle on Bourdillon Road generates is that Tinubu enjoys the sight of suffering humans and thrives in—and through— their poverty.
If all these years, impoverished people hang around you and you remain comfortable enough to keep them just so they can be handed tokens of your large heart, then it means you have a pro-poverty mindset. Such a frame of mind is oriented toward cultivating poverty rather than stimulating abundance.
That is why he could unproblematically relate the story of his “friend” who went from using five Rolls Royce to a far-less valued car and not consider the import of the nonsense he was saying. That spurious account was an indication that this is a man for whom poverty—of others, not himself—is an ideal.
moscow007: Peter Obi seems to be the most viable option, An Atiku Presidency might embolden Fulanis more to do worse, Obi is a no nonsense man considering wat he did to his own MASSOB and the infamous Odi River, I was in Asaba then so I know what's I'm saying and how dangerous head bridge was before his tenure.
If Nigerians knows what's best for them, they will beg Peter Obi to be President.

anonimi: Kidnapping will be history in Anambra under my watch – Obiano ByPremium Times March 4, 2014
Anambra Governor elect, Willie Obiano, said on Tuesday in Abuja that his administration would ensure that crime, kidnapping in particular, was a thing of the past.
Mr. Obiano spoke to State House correspondents after a delegation from the state met with President Goodluck Jonathan at the Presidential Villa.
“Kidnapping is very critical for us and under my watch kidnapping will be a thing of the past.
“First, as soon as I am sworn-in, there is going to be a security conference where all the stakeholders in Anambra will come from near and beyond.
“We are going to do a lot of things that the present administration has started,” he said.
Mr. Obiano said he would deploy vigilante groups, equip and train them appropriately to tackle kidnapping.
“We will also place emphasis on youth employment because where most of the youths are employed then the rascal few will be easily policeable,” he said.

How can anyone be more Fulani than your master strategist in politics but clueless balablu bulaba blabber in governance
anonimi: How we foiled Jonathan’s effort to make Mulika Adeola Speaker, Akande reveals
AS president in 2011, Goodluck Jonathan did all he could to ensure South West grabbed the country’s number four seat, including lobbying then opposition leaders from the zone, to no avail. The North West eventually grabbed the seat, supported by South West leaders in opposition to then ruling party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Former Governor of Osun State and now statesman, Chief Bisi Akande, made this revelation in his autobiography, “My Participations” which is currently dominating political and national dis- course.
Aminu Tambuwal, now Sokoto State governor, won the seat, against the preferred pick of his party, Mrs Mulikat Adeola Akande, from the South-West. Defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, then a fledging opposition, which had Akande and his soulmate, former Lagos State governor, Senator Bola Tinubu, as front- line leaders, openly asked its elected members of the House of Representatives, mostly from the South-West, to work against their region and back Tambuwal from North-West.
The opposition party’s support carried Tambuwal through the contest against Akande, then ruling party’s favourite for the speakership seat.
In his book, Chief Akande revealed that former president then as incumbent, personally reached out to Tinubu, who is now believed to be nursing presidential aspiration in 2023 and himself, but couldn’t convince them.
He wrote, “President Jonathan, immediately after the meeting (with political parties), called Bola Tinubu aside into a lobby to broach the matter of ACN support for a choice of who would become the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
“That same day, President Jonathan talked to me on phone about the same matter. He disclosed that PDP had zoned the position to the South-West but that only one Muraina and another Mulika won elections on PDP ticket from the zone into the House of Representatives.
Mrexcell: So what happens now will the lawmakers return their suvs or this is just academic?
Cerebral Obi should have the answer.
NLCreator: Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections, has defended the purchase of sports utility vehicles (SUVs) for members of the national assembly.
There have been reports that the leadership of the 10th national assembly has bought SUVs for all lawmakers.
Each SUV is said to be valued at N160 million.
The LP had asked members of the party in the national assembly to kick against “wastage”.
While responding to questions during a press conference in Abuja on Monday, the former governor of Anambra said the SUVs are not personal cars of the lawmakers, noting that they are for official use.
“Let me start with the issue of Labour Party members in the house. I have actually discussed this issue with them,” Obi said.
“Surprisingly, I can tell you I heard that these vehicles are official cars. They have to use it. It is meant for office.
“So it is not as if it is their vehicle. They said it is official cars and you are meant to use it while you are in the senate.”
Obi also hinted at contesting for the country’s number one position in 2027, adding that Nigeria deserves dedicated and visionary leaders who will lead the country towards a brighter future.
moscow007: Tinubu can go to hell for all I care!..who gives a Bleep about APC, I'm after safeguarding my business and enjoying reasonable peace in this unfortunate country we find ourselves.
I don't care who the President is, just give us peace and security.
Atiku making a video reading riot act and calling all this Bandits to order will go a long way, let's ace the truth. It's obvious Tinubu doesn't care, he just wants to steal as much money as possible to outspend anybody in Nigeria in sponsoring elections. That's the only way he can replicate Lagos model for the whole Nigeria.
Imagine giving 250billion naira personally to any Governor that decamps to APC, who can match that?...that's his modus operandi, steal and use the money for control.
Given that the two are your viable options next year, what should be your pragmatic choice to safeguard your business and enjoy reasonable peace as we did in this country during the eight years of Obasanjo/Atiku administration?
Meanwhile, the amount is N500 billion and not N250 billion.
"I know of States that have received over 500 billion Naira from the Federal Government as palliative, but I have never received anything.
I think the reason I don't get it is because I'm not in APC.
BabaO2: You claim to know too much. constitution ammendments can't solve problems, it is still a packaging method that will not help stop the momentum of Fulani invaders. who wrote the constitution you are even talking about?
what we need is outright entire rejection and cancellation of the hidden agenda in the constitution fashioned to enthrone islamic supreme government as in Iran. Did you see Buhari on state visit ot ayatollah khomeini or not? Did you ever heard governor of Bauchi saying herdsmen have right to carry ak47 to protect there cow or not? Did you hear the outcome of the Fulani summit in Kano that Allah has given length and breadth of Nigeria to them, therefore, all Fulani in any part of the world should relocate to Nigeria fully armed to take over? Read and do research
Why are you pretending to be ignorant of how your own senators and representatives killed the RUGA, grazing reserves and inland waterways bill?
In any case, who are you expecting to lead your proposed rejection? The Jagaban of Borgu, who is only interested in his 3rd term for life president dictator ambition and aligns with the northerners when it serves his parochial interests

geoworldedu: We are watching how it will pan out. Maybe the bigger thief will win or the smaller thief.
My wish is a revolution to clear out all the old thieves but we are not ready in this country for revolution yet. Tribalism, religion and many other nonsense factors are still determining votes here and no revolution can happen without unity. So we still have a long way to go.
Since you know that we are not ready for your revolution and you won't lead it to shorten the long way to go, what then should be your pragmatic option of the two bad choices?
It's obvious that one of them will be your president next year, except Tinubu succeeds with Amupitan's INEC and Wike's courts to keep Atiku off the ballot.

Mrs Olakunrin died of gunshot wounds in July 2019 after her vehicle was attacked by armed men, suspected to be marauding Fulani bandits whose violent activities had reached a frightening level across the southwest states.
Those arrested suspects include Lawal Mazaje, 40, from Felele area of Kogi State; Adamu Adamu, 50, from Jada area of Adamawa State; Mohammed Usman, 26, from Illela area of Sokoto State and Auwal Abubakar, 25, from Shinkafi area of Zamfara State....

Tambaya has been declared wanted by the police and he is said to be capable of communicating in Hausa, Fulfude and Pidgin English.

gabydaniels: Aug 25, 2016 The Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, has disclosed that the federal government has so far saved the sum of N1.4 trillion for not paying oil subsidy.
He also assured Nigerians that very soon, the foreign exchange market would stabilise going by some radical policies already introduced by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
The vice president who spoke in Kano yesterday during the third day of the 15th Joint Planning Board and National Council on Development meeting, urged Nigerians to restore confidence in President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, insisting that soonest, the current economic problems would become a thing of the past.
“With the deregulation of the downstream petroleum sector, there has been a significant increase in the availability of petrol throughout the country for the savings of N1.4 trillion on subsidy payments alone,” he said.
“Also, a more flexible exchange rate regime, we will have to decrease the pressure on the external reserve. In the short run of course, there should be consequences for inflation. We expect that with greater priority we have seen in the implementation of the policy by the CBN, the foreign exchange market will stabilise and confidence will be restored.
dukie25: Fed Govt to give N10,000 to traders 2 weeks before Osun election
Am still in shock after I saw this on my twitter timeline today. VP Osibanjo went vote buying in Osun State yesterday. In a brazen act, Osibanjo launched "trademoni" which I believe should be bribemoni. If it's not bribe, why then did they choose Osun state with governorship election 2weeks away? Why didn't they choose Ekiti, Katsina, Abia or Adamawa?
This is not done anywhere in the world except in totalitarian states.

Racoon: Festus Keyamo Defends Tinubu From Drug Trafficking, Says Tinubu Mistakenly Shared Flats With Drug Lords
The Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Mr Festus Keyamo, has distanced the All Progressive Congress presidential candidata, Bola Tinubu, from being a drug baron who was involved in the traffic of narcotics in the United States.
Keyamo, who also doubles as APC Presidential Campaign spokesperson, noted that the former governor of Lagos State only shared a block of flat with drug barons about 30 years ago in the US.
His reaction is coming following documents of a Chicago District Court indicting and convicting Tinubu of drug dealings and money laundering in 1993.
The document which emerged online two days ago, described APC standard-bearer as a drug baron, adding that Tinubu entered a plea bargain, leading to the forfeiture of his assets to US authorities in 1993
It was also pointed out that Tinubu forfeited the sum of $460, 000 dollars in his bank account at First Heritage Bank to the US government.
Speaking on Wednesday on Channels TV, Mr Keyamo dismissed such claims, insisting that Tinubu was linked to drug peddlers who were his neighbours.
He said: “What happened was that Tinubu went to open an account. The address which he used in opening the account was the address used by these people. I think some blocks of flats. Maybe, he was happy to be in that block of flats too.
“So, they now link it that the other people they were investigating for narcotics are in the same address used by Asiwaju to open that account.’’
How then will we have people in public office to serve our interests through government policies and well paid civil servants to provide utilities and services like law & order, security, water & electricity supply, free education for all children etc

anonimi: My dad, victim of complex conspiracy – Kola Abiola
What role did Bola Tinubu play in all of these?
At the very beginning, he was part of the Yar’Adua PF group from Jos. He was a senator then, and as far as the group went, we related. The crisis started post-election. When Abacha came, one of the things he wanted to do was to be the administrator for Lagos.
That is Tinubu?
Yes. I am sure you have seen pictures of him and my dad. He was hoping that there would be civilian administrators like we had under IBB but Abacha said no, that he was going to have military administrators. So he (Tinubu) said okay, in that case, can I be a deputy administrator? But Abacha said that there wouldn’t be deputies. Then he wanted the post of a commissioner.
He wanted to be a commissioner?
Yes. Then it was a choice between him and someone very close to Jakande who has passed on now. I can’t remember his name, but because Babagana was already in the government, that guy was picked as commissioner. But really, Senator Tinubu had lost out already.
Was Tinubu very close to MKO?
Yes, he was close enough. He and Adeniyi Adele, a very good guy, were close to my father. In fact, Adeniyi was closer to my father and more dedicated to the process than anyone of them. When my documentary comes out, you will see Tinubu’s take on issues. So once he lost out, automatically, he became a NADECO member and Adeniyi was incarcerated.
The master strategist has stolen everything to bribe politicians into Oshiomole's Assembly of Past Criminals, APC for 2027 and his 3rd term agenda for life president in 2031.
I just dey pity Kwankwaso, Ribadu and other northerners thinking Tinubu will leave in 2031. He will use & dump them as he has done with others who helped him politically since 1992.
He is setting up the structure to succeed where Obasanjo failed in 2007.
