Cups of free rice and daily bread palliative, topped off with N5,000 is enough to block our common sense.
Otherwise what would make any sensible person support Tinubu’s master plan reform of
- increasing tax burden and - borrowing money,
while failing to pay salaries, - failing to pay pensions, - failing to pay contractors, - failing to pay capital releases to ministries and - rolling over budgets from one year to another?
What works are you doing with other people, to make them fail?

The ranking placed Nigeria in 186th position, only after Haiti, among 187 countries of the world. Nigeria also ranked worst in Africa. Nigeria’s low voter turnout
PREMIUM TIMES had reported how Nigeria recorded a new low in voter turnout during the last general elections. With a national turnout of 29 per cent, a Premium Times analysis showed that the last election had the lowest participation rate in the country’s six decades of independence.
It further revealed that of the 93.4 million registered voters this year, 87.2 million people collected their Permanent Voters Card and the total number of actual voters on election day was only 24.9 million..The winner of the election, Bola Tinubu, had less than nine million votes, roughly 10 per cent of the total eligible voters.
Another analysis by this newspaper revealed that all the 18 candidates in Nigeria’s February elections received only 27.55 per cent of the total eligible votes.
Maxymilliano: The governor addressed the people inside armored tank, the president addressed the people at the airport.
The message is very clear.
The message is as clear as the cluelessness of Tinubu, who relied on El Rufai to answer questions about insecurity for him in Chatham House, before Nigerians allowed him to hit the ground running three years ago.

koxyz: Adeleke might likely win the election but it is not going to be an easy race for him
We cannot push aside the federal might that will support Ambo, however they will be largest spender.
The type of federal might that makes APC Oshiomole's Assembly of Past Criminals
chisomkachy: The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has withdrawn the alleged money laundering suit it filed at the Federal High Court against Lagos Speaker Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa.
Naija News understands that the anti-graft did not give any particular reason for its application for withdrawal.
Following the application to withdraw, Justice Nicholas Oweibo discharged the ‘lien/Post No Debit’ placed on Obasa’s three accounts in Standard Chartered Bank.
The accounts are (US Dollars) 0001852063; (Current) 0001852056 and (Saving) 5002309624.
The judge also set aside the ex-parte orders he made on September 15, 2020, which led to the freezing of the accounts.
Recall that the court on September 15, 2020, granted an interim order freezing Obasa’s accounts following the EFCC’s application in a suit marked FHC/LCS/1064/2020.
The agency had said it was investigating the Speaker for the alleged offences of conspiracy, diversion of funds, abuse of office and money laundering.
But Justice Oweibo, on August 16, 2023, heard the application to unfreeze the accounts in his chamber.
During the hearing, the EFCC was represented by Mr. Sulaiman I. Sulaiman, while Obasa was represented by Mr. Adeyinka Olumide-Fusika (SAN).
The EFCC lawyer told the court that the application to unfreeze the accounts was pursuant to Section 44(2)(K) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended) and Sections 26, 29 and 34 (1) of the EFCC (Establishment) Act, 2004, and under the court’s inherent jurisdiction.
Section 44 of the Constitution concerns constitutional rights to property.
Justice Oweibo held: “It is hereby ordered that an order is hereby granted to the respondent/applicant setting aside the ex-parte orders of this court made on the 15th day of September 2020 upon the ex-parte motion of the Applicant/ Respondent in relation the funds of the Respondent/Applicant domiciled in the accounts stated in the following schedule:
“ACCOUNT NAME, FINANCIAL ACCOUNT INSTITUTIONS, TYPE OF ACCOUNT, 1. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered, (US Dollars) 0001852063 2. Mudasiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Current) 0001852056 3. Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa, Standard Chartered (Saving) 5002309624.
“Issued at Lagos, under the seal of this Honourable Court and by the hands of the Presiding Judge this 16th day of August 2023.”
SmartPolician: Of what use are Escobar boys to this country apart from playing SENSELESS politics?
The type A-looter Propaganda Congress, APC played in 2012, with Buhari's running mate of a year earlier.
Thankfully PDP deregulation and privatisation prosperity politicians did not waiver about Dangote refinery licence 14 years ago. Otherwise we will be importing fuel massively.
Omoboricash: Pls allow Adeleke entertainer to entertain us for another 4 years. We need his dancing step again
Osun people need his better governance. Better than those who owed salaries, pensions and promotions benefits for 12 years before the people got rid of A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC.

If you know any of them, tell them NIGERIANS have gone past the time of Atiku or David Mark. David Mark was Senate President for 8 years, Otukpo road was a complete mess until Tinubu came AND NOW FIXING THE ROAD.
Tinubu carry go till 2031.
How many pictures of Otukpo road are you using to pay Tinubu the subsidy forced on Nigerians because of massive corruption in APC’s oil sector, now that petrol is way higher than N70
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.
It unfortunate politics is really a game of interest
I know ADC will accommodate this failed lawyer in the late hr... But if I am to say
Cam American way of politics be played in. Nigeria? This man should not not be let in even if ADC loose
Can you put in the effort that ordinary Americans put into their political and governance processes, before wishing for something that you are not working for
Do you know if only 10% of American population vote?

Hardtalk: There’s No Stopping Fashola’s Probe —Keyamo April 16, 2010 15:02, 1,040 views By Kazeem Ugbodaga
Lagos lawyer and counsel to the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mr. Festus Keyamo says nothing would stop the House from probing allegations of financial misappropriation against Governor Babatunde Fashola.
He called on the governor to submit himself to probe in order to clear himself, saying there was no hiding through court injunction to dodge the probe against him.
The State House of Assembly had yesterday set up a fresh 7-member committee to probe allegations against the governor by the True Face of Lagos, which staged a protest to the House recently to demand probe of the governor.
Speaking with P.M.NEWS this morning, Keyamo said that the governor should be probed, adding that the accolades the governor received in the media should not divert attention from the real thing.
“Every public officer has a duty to give account of stewardship no matter the height of praise singing he receives from the press. The office you are occupying is not your father’s property but the public.
“Probe is not the same thing as verdict of guilt, but an opportunity for one to clear himself. If Fashola believes his hands are clean, now is the opportunity for him to shine,” he stated.
According to him, “Fashola should take the path of honour and clear himself of the allegations. He can’t continue to hide under court injunction.
“If you say you plant grass and flower, come and tell the people how much you spent in planting them, tell them how you spent their money because it is not your father’s money.
“The House must go ahead with the probe because it is their constitutional and moral duty to do what they want to do. They have now properly published the allegations in their official journal.”
Comrade Bamidele Aturu, who was counsel to Mr. Richard Akinola, the man who first went to court to stop the House from probing the governor, said “we will assess our legal option and deal with the issue.”
Aturu stated that if the House erred in setting up the new committee, it would be challenged in the court, saying that “we are for democracy and probity.”
Also, Majority Leader, Lagos Assembly, Hon. Kolawole Taiwo said the House had already published the allegations in the Assembly’s journal, saying that the House would go ahead with the probe.

The one that Bala attended its inauguration before he was influenced to recant and revise his commitment to the salvation vehicle.
That ADC is the one.
REWIND: In July 2025, Nafiu Bala attended ADC unveiling of David Mark-led leadership
On July 2, 2025, Nafiu Bala, the factional acting national chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), was among the stakeholders who attended the party’s unveiling of the interim leadership of David Mark and Rauf Aregbesola.
The event took place at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja, the nation’s capital.
The event was attended by many politicians, including former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar; Peter Obi, 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP); Nasir el-Rufai, former governor of Kaduna; Rotimi Amaechi, former minister of transportation; Emeka Ihedioha, ex-deputy speaker of the house of representatives; and Ireti Kingibe, senator representing the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
Others were John Oyegun, the former national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC); Abubakar Malami, the former attorney-general of the federation (AGF) and minister of justice; Dino Melaye, former Kogi west senator; Solomon Dalung, former minister of sports; Aisha Yesufu, an activist; Dele Momodu, publisher of Ovation magazine; Enyinnaya Abaribe, senator representing Abia south, and Gabriel Suswan, former governor of Benue.
At the event, Bala was introduced by Lauretta Onochie, former presidential aide, who co-moderated the programme, as the ADC deputy national chairman, intergovernmental affairs.
Gombe stood up from his seat to acknowledge the introduction.
The introduction can be viewed in the 14:03 section of a video posted by Symfoni on July 2, 2026

Na so oh. Go to court where Wike has secured the judges for favourable opinions
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.”
Jayhome24: Laughable. Obi that will soon have no party. I just dey laughed.
You did your stew-pid lock down in 2023 where did your obi landed? 3rd place.
We wan see that INEC chairman wey go declare your obi as president we wan see am, you are playing with devil...
The lockdown landed him and Nigerians where Tinubu wanted it to land- in Aso Rock for Tinubu with the help of Utomi.
Party-hopping, zero principles Utomi is the first presidential candidate of ADC.
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.
HacheNoire: Some political minions still think they are in the play when the game is already over!
His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) has everywhere locked down!
You can rant online and all social media platforms, it will not make you escape from the reality that will hit you in 2027.
Y’all don’t even know or acknowledge the demigod you up against. You humans cannot even feel or see it.
Why is your demigod of politics a full fledged demon of governance by looting the sweat and blood of the people extracted as taxes, duties, rates, levies, fines, and even subsidy to government?

The St Paulo drug trafficker thinks he can buy and silence everyone
All this won't matter if the opposition can't resolve this Bala ADC palaver and any other hidden obstacles Tinubu and Amupitan have in store for them.
If the opposition is not united behind the brainbox of PDP's 16 years of prosperity and he also does not make appropriate concessions to accommodate everyone under a big tent umbrella coalition, Tinubu will not only get reelected, he will also get a 3rd term enroute to life president, which Obasanjo failed to get 19 years ago.
A large crowd of Lagosians was filmed in a long queue struggling to collect a loaf of bread. To maintain order, several military personnel were on the ground to control the crowd. This has triggered a lot of reactions online.

Ironically, he had an American chocolate bar with him along with a pistol he could not shoot himself with.
Revolva: During Tinubu time as governor that was when this dream started to make tolu complex better he built millennium school in the tolu complex and schools almost in every LG in lagos but when fashola entered fashola raised the standard in tolu complex roads connecting the school was done in the community and all upgrades and maintainance ...not sure ambode did anytin in tolu schools ..until now baba sanwo eko have topped it up by doing the best thank God this place is now something to be proud of ... although am not an APC supporter but if we see good things make we talk

36 schools in Tolu complex to undergo rehabilitation after 40yrs
Tolu Schools Complex comprising 36 schools, with a population of 19,714 students, situated in the densely populated Ajegunle, in the Olodi Apapa area of Lagos , is set to undergo redevelopment for the first time in over 40 years .
Vanguard observed that some of the schools in the complex, which sits approximately on 11.73 hectares of land , were in different stages of dilapidation, thereby compelling students to be evacuated to prevent catastrophe in the event of likely collapse.
One of the schools is Reservation Junior Secondary School. The affected students were paired with those of Oshodi Junior Secondary School, thereby congesting the already populated classrooms.
