How many pictures of the road can you use to pay for the subsidy forced on you by APC’s massive corruption in the oil sector since 2015, given Tinubu and Buhari’s failure to sell petrol at N70 or less
anonimi: Petrol should never cost more than N70 per litre, says APC
January 19, 2015
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described as mere tokenism the reduction of petrol price from N97 to N87 per litre, saying the petroleum product ordinarily should sell for N70.
On Sunday, the federal government announced the reduction of petrol price, citing the fall of global crude oil price.
But the APC through Lai Mohammed, its spokesman, on Monday accused the government of making a show out of deceit, saying “a 10.3 per cent slash in the price of petrol was a mere tokenism at a time the price of crude oil has crashed by about 60 per cent”.
It argued that the pump price of a litre of petrol should not be more than 70 Naira, alleging that at N87 per litre, the government was forcing Nigerians to subsidise the massive corruption in the oil sector by N17 for every litre of fuel.
Guestmale: Until Alhaji Atiku sue Papa OBJ for defamation of character and claim compensation on what Papa OBJ wrote about him in his book "under my watch" , Alhaji Atiku don't have any business vying for any political office.
alsudan: Its an all out WAR between Atiku and Tinubu.
But, with Co Captain Obi and other Lieutenants like Kwankwaso, El Rufai, Amaechi beside Atiku, the Iragbiji Man who cant read, can as well tell Alake and Onanuga to start typing his handover notes.
Are you sure that the Ayédèrú is even from Yoruba land, with the way he betrayed us several times in the past?
The Jagaban of Borgu, who has a name different from his Iyaloja Oshodi mother, may be a northerner.
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.
That interest doz Service providers are charging are just too much.
25 percent on little money is just too much ...
Tinubu and All Promises Cancelled, APC said they were going to change our country for better. However they have changed everything for worse. They came to steal, to loot, to destroy and to wreck Nigeria.
Since 2015, what has changed for better in our dear country
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.
Sensiblerealist: I for just waka pass but I felt the pronounced urge to put your fallacy under check. In Lagos State, the works speak for themselves, albeit that I believe that they could do more. But as per employment aof teachers, it is one of the highest achievements of the Sanwo-Olu administration. There's almost to term, sometimes month, that my wife doesn't tell me if a new teach being employed, same as most other schools in her educational district as I could conduct business with teachers.
The fact that they don't put out bogus employment numbers doesn't mean they are not actively engaging new teachers and other workers. Make una try dey dey open minded and tone down these lies. You are making a factual statement in something you know absolutely nothing about
Is the commissioner for education also telling lies because she does not have an open mind about the matter
anonimi: Ratio of public to private schools in Lagos State is one to 22 ― Commissioner September 4, 2022
The Lagos State government has said the ratio of public to private schools at both primary and secondary school levels in the state is one to 22.
The state’s Commissioner for Education, Mrs Folasade Adefisayo, gave the revelation in her remark at the 2022 edition of the Total School Support Seminar Exhibition (TOSSE) held at Oregun in Ikeja between Thursday and Friday.
In the same way that Lagosians have been patient for 27 years of forever increasing tax burden for 100 times growth in budget that has failed to yield ordinary water supply
Slow and steady we are getting WORSE despite fake promises by A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC leaders of integrity?
How much was the dollar during the 16 prosperous years of PDP, built on deregulation and privatisation policies that gave us cheap petrol, low unemployment, low insecurity etc
anonimi: World Bank offers Nigeria forex rate advice, as Tinubu eyes N200/Dollar rate
April 23, 2023
The President-elect said he would work with the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to *bring down the exchange rate to N200 in his first term.*
“My administration will collaborate with the Central Bank to harmonize the fiscal and monetary policy to achieve immediate stabilization of the value of the naira against the US dollars and other currencies and in the short term, strengthen the naira by boosting the supply of foreign currency and moderating demand.
“The short-term goal is to achieve a naira/dollar rate of 300 naira/US$ and gradually achieve a less than 200 naira rate over the next four years, Tinubu stated.
Muhammadu Buhari, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has promised to ensure that the naira would be equal to the dollar in value if voted into office.
NAN reports that Buhari said this on Monday during the south-east presidential rally of the party at Dan Anyiam Stadium, Owerri.
“It is sad that the value of the naira has dropped to more than N230 to one dollar. This does not speak well for the nation’s economy,” he said.
He urged the people to vote for APC, noting that he would ensure that corruption was tackled headlong if elected.
HacheNoire: We still will hit 1000 to a $ by 4th quarter!
We just don’t have to bow to the IMF gibberish abkit bringing back fuel importation.
What happened to the promise by Asiwaju omoluwabi for N300/$1 in the short term before hitting N200/$1 by May 2027?
What has he done to the $3.3 billion Afreximbank SPV loan, secured with future oil sales by Elumelu's UBA at an outrageous 11.85%, which was specifically borrowed to defend the Naira?
Did he steal everything to fund his 2027 reelection and 3rd term agenda for life president
"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.
what are the resources available to Jakande during a time of true Federalism and what are the resources available to Tinubu during OBJ's PDP. Amongst the 36 governors of his time 1999 to 2007, who did better? You will recall, OBJ and PDP used $16 billion to buy power equipment in 2005, today where is the power.....
In addition, OBJ held the states allocation for 4 years! I know horrible MMIA road was, he offered to rebuild it PDP FG refused until Buhari came and gave Ambode the approval to do the road.
Obasanjo did not seize Lagos state's allocation for 4 years. He only seized the LGA portion due to Tinubu and his AG Osinbajo's attempt to smuggle additional local government areas into the 1999 constitution, which other states reversed.
What has Tinubu done with the 100 times increase in revenue to N4.2 trillion since 1999 if Lagos has less than 5% schools owned by government and people are drinking shitty water
Meanwhile there is no evidence to substantiate the allegation of $16 billion spent by Obasanjo on power. If there was, he would have been probed, prosecuted and convicted by subsequent administrations, especially corruption fighting APC since 2015.
Would you know how much APC has spent for the past 11 years to procure darkness, since they are borrowing more than PDP despite removing subsidy, thereby making petrol expensive, to save trillions of Naira and billions of dollars respectively in 2016 and 2023?
Nigeria: Again, FG Seizes Lagos Councils Funds
22 September 2005
Abuja — The suspended dispute between Federal and Lagos State governments over the release of revenue from the federation account to local government councils may have resumed. President Olusegun Obasanjo was said to have ordered that the last tranche of the earlier seized fund totalling N14 billion due to Lagos State be witheld.
Deputy Governor of Lagos state, Mr. Femi Pedro, who made this known when speaking with newsmen, said President Obasanjo had yesterday told him that the third tranch of the seized funds would not be paid by the Federal Government until elections are held in 20 constitutionally recognised local government councils in Lagos State.
Obasanjo had since last year ordered the seizure of LG funds belonging to the state on the basis that the state government conducted elections into 57 newly created councils which were yet to be ratified by the National Assembly. The Supreme Court to which the dispute was referred for adjudication ruled that the Federal Government has no power to seize funds belonging to other tiers of government.
The apex court however declared the newly created councils in Lagos State as legal and validly created but "inchoate."
Obasanjo later agreed to pay the money in three tranches after a team of mediators led by Prince Bola Ajibola, former Attorney General of the Federation, intervened and got Tinubu to revert the 57 local government structure to the 20 recognised by the constitution. N20 billion had been paid in three tranches leaving N14 billion.
lapintoz: Maybe you have never been to Lagos, I live here, Tinubu and his successive Governors under his watch have done wonders within the merger resources they have got since 1999. And he has carried the same mantra to Federal.
Tell us what Obi your candidate did in Anambra for 8 years. What did Jonathan your 2nd preference do for almost 6 years. Pls don't mention Hero Brewery and Abuja to Kaduna Rail line....
Why should I be interested in Anambra when I am not from there?
I am interested in how Tinubu's 27 years master plan compares with 4 years of Jakande.
onatisi: Ameachi knows what he is doing. He can't go to APC now ,and he has a role to play in n ADC. Definitely he is no match for obi,atiku . The most and strongest contenders for the ticket are obi and atiku .
They will both be on the same ticket. That is already settled. Kwankwanso is not too keen on presidential,he is keen on winning back kano state at all cost . That is where his focus is . Ameachi is not even in contention at all for the ticket
The ticket would be better balanced with Makinde on it as VP or campaign manager, either role can go to Obi as well.
benardtotti: Tinubu demystified? How ? Lol many of you know nothing about governance asides sharing money and cheap dollars ,
any logical person will know tinubu is recalibrating the country to become self sufficient going forward even without oil , if you think this is a lie , ask a neutral platform like ai chat bots, chatgpt , gemini, grok etc .
Recalibrating the country into forever gbese ayeraye after taxing us to death like he has done in Lagos for 27 years without making ordinary water available.
What is the title of your comedy- Tinubu's lootocracy master plan
lamentor78: Time for Obi to pack his kaya commot. I love Ameachi, if you are going to get the ticket you must work for it , Tinubu did not get Presidential ticket on a platter of Gold. He grap it , snacth it and usain bolt away with it.
Obi is looking for who will dash him ticket free of charge.
lol
Ehn now, shebi that was how Tinubu arranged for Utomi to dash him ticket in communist LP labourer's camp in 2023.
The unprincipled, party-hopping Utomi first asked us to give him the job of president on ADC platform, coincidentally.
lexylaw40: The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
The governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in Oyo State, Tawfiq Akinwale, [/b]on Wednesday [b]stated that the “President-elect” Bola Tinubu asked popular economist, Prof Pat Utomi to step down for Peter Obi in the buildup to the 2023 general elections.
Akinwale made this revelation while he appeared as a guest on a radio programme on 101.7 YES FM, Ibadan, Oyo State, while alleging that Obi received campaign funds from Utomi, whom he described as Tinubu's "son."
The LP aspirant, who spoke in Yoruba language, said "In the buildup to the 2023 elections, Obi who had purchased the nomination form of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), suddenly announced his exit from the party.
"Initially, Pat Utomi had secured the LP's presidential ticket, but when Peter Obi said he resigned from the PDP and joined the LP. Bola Tinubu, a master political strategist, quickly told Utomi, that everyone knows to be his son to step down for Obi.
"The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.
"What Peter Obi didn't know is much more that what he knows, he started collecting campaign funds from Utomi, while Tinubu was giving the money to Utomi.
"This went on until Obi's presidential campaign got to a stage it went beyond target. Obi was used without him knowing," Akinwale said after announcing his departure from the party.
Obi defected to the LP after resigning his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and also withdrawing from the presidential race under the party.
The former governor consequently joined the race for the party’s presidential ticket, while Professor Pat Utomi, in June 2022 stepped down for him to emerge as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, unopposed in Asaba, Delta State.

YoungLionken: I hate the APCheat but, Sanwo Olu is an exception. I think he's the best performing governor in Nigeria currently. Followed by Alex and the rest...
Best performing governor with less than 5% schools owned by their progreThief government?
How many teachers have been employed by your best performing governor? Are they up to 19,500? That is the number employed by Makinde who does not do vuvuzela propaganda noise of being a progressive governor.
lapintoz: Na so una dey decieved unaself......on what budget now.....
Lagos State Annual Budget $2 billion, population 25 million!
New York Annual Budget $240 billion, population 20 million.
But we get it, you prefer the man that ruled a state for 8 years and only built Hero Brewery. Thst is your definition of success.
What was Lagos budget and population when Jakande did goodu goodu meje ati yeah yeah mefa before Buhari locked him up for corruption? The military dictator who led the only successful coup against democratic institutions at the local, state and federal levels since 1960.
How does Tinubu's performance compare with this in 27 years of raising budget 100 times, based on forever increasing tax burden on Lagosians?
Splashme: The first civilian governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, on Tuesday, said that the cancellation of the Lagos metroline project in 1985 was a major mistake and disservice to many Nigerians.
Jakande spoke in Lagos during the launch of a book which chronicled his life in politics and journalism.
The book, entitled, ‘Jakande: Leadership in Action’ is written by Dr. Bola Olaosebikan, who told the audience at the event that the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), was not responsible for the cancellation of the project.
Jakande said, “Reflecting on the metroline project, I think it is a major disservice to many Nigerians. Imagine how many people would have benefitted. It would have made life easier and changed the face of transport in Lagos. Whoever cancelled it or gave the advice towards its cancellation didn’t do right.”
The former governor asked Nigerians not to vote for unserious leaders in the coming polls, saying the elections presented Nigerians with a good opportunity that should not be squandered.
Expressing the hope that Nigeria would soon overcome its developmental challenges, Jakande said hope would be actualised faster if credible people emerged as leaders in the next dispensation.
He said, “This book comes at a very auspicious time in Nigeria’s history as we need leaders who can act. We need leaders who would not compromise the standards of good governance. God has blessed this nation the most in Africa, although we have not reached where we should be; with the right leaders, Nigeria would overcome its challenges.”

Atiku should not take that for granted as he seems to be doing with the useless interview he did recently.
He needs to focus his messaging on a return to the golden era of his joint administration with Obasanjo in PDP, when they laid a foundation for prosperity with deregulation and privatisation policies. Prosperity with low debt, low unemployment, low insecurity, cheap petrol, better life etc.

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.”
Putinofrussia: It is all over the world not only in Nigeria but Tinubu should find a way of mitigating the suffering of the masses.
Is it all over the world that presidents owe salaries, owe pensions, owe contractors, fails to fund capital budget to ministries, rolls over budgets from year to year. Meanwhile he has money to buy new jets, junket the world for medical tourism etc and bribe politicians to decamp to Oshiomole's Assembly of Past Criminals, APC for his 2027 reelection and 3rd term agenda life president dictatorship.
"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.
If the US is in decline, why is clueless city boy inviting them to invade Nigeria, to kill innocent northerners under the guise of looking for Muslim terrorists accused of Christian genocide
SmartPolician: The dynamics have changed. If you think that most states in Southern Nigeria will vote for an Atiku/Obi presidency after Buhari wasted 8 years in power, think again.
The South, where most of the resources used to run this country come from, doesn't live to serve northerners.
We know that a Nigerian Vice President is useless. Southern Nigeria deserves 8 years in power and I assure you that the ticket will find it difficult to beat Tinubu now.
Why did south not deserve 8 years when Tinubu recycled his 2011 expired Buhari as APC change messiah four years later to end 16 years of PDP prosperity built on deregulation and privatisation policies?
Moreover, the south would have 17 years against the north's 11 years by 2027 since our return to democracy in 1999.
What should be important for any patriotic Nigerian is a return to PDP prosperity with low debt burden, low unemployment, low insecurity etc. Who were the key players that laid the foundation for this golden era of Nigeria?

anonimi: Petrol should never cost more than N70 per litre, says APC
January 19, 2015
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described as mere tokenism the reduction of petrol price from N97 to N87 per litre, saying the petroleum product ordinarily should sell for N70.
On Sunday, the federal government announced the reduction of petrol price, citing the fall of global crude oil price.
But the APC through Lai Mohammed, its spokesman, on Monday accused the government of making a show out of deceit, saying “a 10.3 per cent slash in the price of petrol was a mere tokenism at a time the price of crude oil has crashed by about 60 per cent”.
It argued that the pump price of a litre of petrol should not be more than 70 Naira, alleging that at N87 per litre, the government was forcing Nigerians to subsidise the massive corruption in the oil sector by N17 for every litre of fuel.

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.”
Kushites: ZIMBABWEANS CHERISH AND APPRECIATE WHAT MUGABE DID BY REDISTRIBUTING THE LAND TO THE PEOPLE AWAY FROM THE WHITE MINORITY THAT PREVIOUSLY OWNED 90% OF THEIR LAND.
HE WAS CALLED A "DICTATOR" AND DEMONISED BY THE WEST, WHICH IS WHAT THEY ALWAYS DO WHEN YOU CHALLENGE THEIR THIEVERY.
JUST LIKE THEY BRAND IRAN "TERRORIST" FOR CHALLENGING THEIR THEFT OF PALESTINIAN AND ARAB LANDS IN THEIR QUEST FOR "GREATER ISRAEL".
If you are sure of what you are saying then why do you have to shout with ALL CAPS?
How did redistribution of land help Zimbabwe's economy?
