Yourprick: Aren't all this people meant to be supporting obi?
What changed.
There support for Obi as a stand alone candidate will only help Jagaban of Borgu to continue his worsening of APC extreme poverty shege.
jameshankss: Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”
Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.
He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.
callthefred: This is vision. The same thing Obi lacks but Tinubu seems to have.
With due respect Obi is not corrupt agreed but his lack of vision makes him and his fellow cronies of importers pressure pass govt to destroy manufacturing sector of Nigeria..I mean Dangote here achieved what no single refinery in the world has ever done. Vision!!!
Why are you confusing balablu town hall propaganda announcements with vision? They are two separate things.
What Tinubu and APC have is propaganda. They have zero vision for Nigeria, except to loot the tax burden on the people.
According to APC propaganda, two NNPC refineries have been working since 2015, and one of them has been exporting fuel since December 2024!
celestialAgent: Buhari and Emefiele did this one, no doubt.
It is rather sad how Tinubu has failed to help Nigerians avail the benefit for convenience living.
Buhari really tried on this PDP licensed private refinery, since he didn’t cancel it like he did with the Lagos metro project in 1984, after his only successful coup against democratic institutions at the local, state and federal levels.
LagosOrigin: It is only terorists sympathetzers that are against the United states having base in Nigeria .
Terrorist sympathisers like Jagaban of Borgu, who has been looking for cows 🐄 in his fight to grab power and run with it cluelessly like a headless pig 🐖?

When Funke Olakurin, daughter of Afenifere leader, Pa Reuben Fasoranti was murdered instead of Bola Tinubu to make sure that the perpetrators were brought to book, he ended up making fun of the death of the young lady by turning everything into tribalism by showing his hates for Igbos.
Tinubu has never spoken against the deadly activities of Fulani herdsmen across the country

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.
Under PDP south african mercenaries came to Nigeria
How are private military contractors equal to a racist Trump being invited to recolonise Nigeria 🇳🇬 in the same manner that he is doing in Gaza?
Did PDP ever invite a foreign country to violate our sovereignty, killing innocent Nigerians under the guise of looking for Muslim terrorists accused of genocide against Christians?
When did PDP do that during their 16 years of widespread prosperity
Never has any president invited foreigners to violate Nigerian 🇳🇬 sovereignty as Jagaban of Borgu is doing. Definitely not when PDP deregulation and privatisation politicians gave us 16 years of widespread prosperity with high employment productivity.
Did Tinubu and his wife sell off Nigeria 🇳🇬 to Trump? At what price?
You guys lie too much, you lie so much and forget people have access to the Internet to fact check your daily dose of lies, The devil, the father of all liars is your father.
If Tinubu cannot return it back to how he met it then no amount of propaganda can change the fact that he is a failure.
Thanks Oga.

Why should we be happy with the way Tinubu has destroyed our Naira and the economy that was the biggest in Africa 11 years ago when he fraudulently packaged Buhari as APC messiah?
The messiah that he called expired soldier four years earlier o.
APC propaganda merchants think that every Nigerian 🇳🇬 is part of Lagbaja’s 200 million mumus.
Vision101: If you want to expand your budget in order to provide infrastructure and other things that can aid in future capital formation then you have to increase the deficit in your budget. Deficit means funding gap which can only be filled with borrowing.
You might decide not to borrow which means shrinking your spending to the size of your income. This simply means make I dey as I dey. An ambitious regime will always borrow because they are looking at providing for the future. To reduce your borrowing without sacrificing the future you have to increase your income through tax.
Our demand should be that every naira borrowed should be judiciously used. Obi's style of locking up money in the bank when there are serious needs for facilities is illiterate economics.
No wonder your vision is 101 balablu level, instead of 20/20 clear vision.
What is the point of your dogo turenchi when your jagaban of Borgu says that he has stopped borrowing after hitting his higher revenue target in August, due to increased tax burden on Nigerian 🇳🇬 people
CosmoGlitch: If you have the money and it’s legit, spend it how you like
Is that how the patron saint of his sinless redeemed saints Assembly of Past Criminals, APC is using his legit money to fly South African CSWs to rub their feet while those he failed to educate and employ are using cultism to destroy his Edo state?
If our elites have legit money, then why are we the extreme poverty capital of the world, with the most children out of school? What are we allowing our elites to get away with
Does the expensive cake make the Kano celebrants excluded from being part of the backward society of almajiri insecurity due to unemployment, and underemployment of poorly educated people who are deliberately impoverished by their elites?
Would this money and the time used be better spent advocating for the education of all children and governance accountability?
FxMasterz: Find out what Nigeria's population was during the PDP days vs the current population.
Find out how many projects the PDP era embarked on vs the current government that has over 4,000 projects in less than 2yrs. Then, examine whether the PDP met a vault as empty as what Buhari left for Tinubu.
Since you already know the population numbers for 2015, 2019, 2023 and now, why don’t you just say it? What is so hard for you to say about the numbers over the period
Ditto for your phantom 4,000 Tinubu projects and empty vault claim by the expired soldier that Tinubu made president four years after!!!
Meanwhile, please don’t forget to send the link to how one can use pictures of your phantom projects to pay for the subsidy that APC is forcing on 200 million Nigerians because of the massive corruption in their oil sector.
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.
femi4: Are they not the thugs used during election...
now they are idle
Are they idle because the ọpọlọ governor is stealing money that should employ and pay them well to serve as teachers, road maintenance crews, water supply technicians etc?
Would they be causing any trouble if the unskilled ones among them are paid N70,000 monthly to work 8 hour shifts all day and night to make gutters clear, roadsides clean etc
Instead of doing that, the ọpọlọ governor is giving Edo money to his godfather, that former Kaduna tailor to be flying South African CSWs and rubbing her feet like a bewildered and bewitched man.
The exchange rate was being subsidized before Tinubu came on board. The rates you refered to before this regime were fake rates based on subsidy. Did you hear of any exchange rate improvements since 1999? Have you ever read any news of the Naira strongly improving against the dollar as is the case currently?
The current reforms are paying off and a new trajectory is already on our economic horizon. Commend the thinking caps that made this happen.
Argentina is in deep economic shit, yet your ignorant Atiku and Obi asked us to take Argentina as an economic role model.
If the exchange rate is no longer subsidised, and petrol is also no longer being subsidised, then why is Tinubu borrowing more than PDP presidents
lawani: Buhari printed too much naira and to get 300 to a dollar then you have to remove majority of naira in circulation from circulation. Prices will drop like a rock.
There is no point in doing that. Just stop printing recklessly, increase wages and leave the market to self heal and correct
What do you gain from confirming that Tinubu is a clueless and incompetent politician who says what he has absolutely no intention of doing
A man of zero integrity just like his predecessor who was Abacha’s PTF collaborator!!!
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.
Did your Umahi resign from his job as Ebonyi governor when he stole money that should employ well paid workers to make education free for all children and water available to all households?
If he did not resign then, why would you say that it is nice to HEAR him make another balablu chochocho empty barrel loudest noise promise
seunmsg: In fact CBN is now a net buyer of forex. Basically, dollar inflow is now so significantly high that CBN is now mopping up dollar supply from the market. That is, CBN is no longer intervening in the market to defend the Naira, they are now buying up excess forex liquidity to ensure Naira maintains the current exchange rate.
So as it is, the Naira is under priced and once the CBN feels the time is good, they will further strengthen the naira. For now, stability is the goal.
Ẹnu opurọ kii ṣe ẹjẹ, otherwise you would be bleeding 🩸 from your mouth and your fingers as well as every other part of your body.
Editorialtimes: CBN Approves $150,000 Weekly FX Access for BDCs to Stabilise Market – The Business Bureau
lawani: It will still drop more. The government said they have not printed any naira note since inception.
Some experts say it should be around 1200 by now
How far is N1,200 from N300/$1, which was Tinubu’s short term goal when he hit the ground running 33 months ago?
How far is N1,200 from his May 2027 target of N200/$1
At least if Tinubu’s 2011 expired old soldier failed to deliver his promised change in exchange rate for eight years of cluelessness, the Lagos tax reformer and renewed hope architect should not be a failure also.
seunmsg: I just keep wondering what would have happened to our economy if we had taken Atiku and Peter Obi’s advice to follow the Argentina model. By now, Naira would have been completely worthless and our economy would have been in super depression. We really missed a bullet by voting against those two economic illiterates.
In fact, every Nigerian should take some minutes out today to say a prayer of gratitude to president Bola Tinubu.
What sane Nigerian 🇳🇬 would say a prayer for the worst rogue in history?
The man who saved $84 billion from subsidy removal and borrowed $3.3 billion SPV loan from Afreximbank to defend the Naira, but has failed to achieve his short term goal of N300/$1? The SPV loan is secured with future oil revenues and facilitated by Elumelu’s UBA at a scandalous 11.85% interest rate.
Tinubu told us he stopped borrowing after hitting his higher revenue target in August, meanwhile the propagandist liar is borrowing more than PDP presidents who gave us cheap petrol and better life all round.
What is the punishment under shariah laws for such a useless and corrupt leader looter
Eleph: I doubt the intelligence the United States is depending on. Same United States have been speaking from both sides of its mouth in recent times without real action or consequences hence the rise in insurgency.
The rise in insurgency in America 🇺🇸? Or the rise in insurgency in Nigeria 🇳🇬?
Which one are you talking about specifically?
If there is no real action then what do you call the invasion of our sovereign country by Trump, killing innocent northerners under the guise of looking for Muslim terrorists accused of committing genocide against Christians
IkeOnyia: The sanction on Rabiu Kwankwaso is very correct. He has been the self appointed spokesman of fulani herdsmen threatening states who dared to ban open grazing and unfettered access of foreign herders.
Hopefully the US Congress will also include Sheikh Gumi and Sheikh Jingir on the the next sanctions list as they have both supported the persecution of Nigerian Christians.
There is no greater spokesman for Fulani herdsmen than Jagaban of Borgu. The CinC who negotiates with them to release a few kidnapped children instead of killing/arresting them.
The betrayer of Yorubas who threw Mulikat Akande under the cow 🐄 in 2011 to make Tambuwal HoR Speaker. The hypocrite had no qualms about subsequently accusing PDP of marginalising Yorubas, as he fraudulently sold Buhari to unsuspecting Nigerians as APC messiah four years after calling him expired and making the old soldier cry while vowing never to run again following his three failed attempts.
The betrayer of Igbos who jails their freedom fighter Kanu while pampering Boko Haram terrorists and kidnappers.
Do you think that Tinubu has finally found his cows 🐄 in Aso Rock after fighting for and grabbing power to run cluelessly with it like a headless pig 🐖?

‘Tactical Ransom or Negotiation?’ Nigerians Question Tinubu, FG as Kebbi, Kwara Terrorists Go Scot-Free
Since the Nigerian government confirmed that the abducted 38 worshippers in Kwara State and the 24 Kebbi schoolgirls had been freed, many Nigerians have been awaiting updates about the arrest or killing of their abductors.
The silence of the federal and state governments on consequences for the perpetrators has led many to believe that the government likely negotiated with the terrorists and paid ransom to have the abductees released.
FIJ called the spokespersons of the Nigerian Army (NA) and the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) on Wednesday morning, but neither provided answers to questions about the abductors.
Shortly after Kebbi Governor Nasir Idris and Bello Matawalle, Minister of Defence, announced on Tuesday that the 24 students had been freed, the terrorists who abducted the girls released a video, saying the government negotiated with them for the girls’ release.
If the FGN on whose shoulders lies the responsibility of providing electricity for Nigerians is disconnecting from the national grid, so what happens to the hapless masses?
However, one must admit that the privatization of the electricity sector in 2013 by the PDP administration under GEJ is fiasco.
Instead of meeting the expectations of Nigerians, it made matters worse.
The then PDP government told a highly expectant nation that by unbundling the government owned PHCN, a magic wand had been found.
Alas, Nigerians were taken for a ride as they went about selling to their friends and cronies who neither had the financial capacity nor the technical know-how to run the electricity sector.
Since then till date, the sector has continued to move from bad to worse.
Like the NNPCL, the more financial resources pumped into it, the more epileptic its services become - like a bottomless pit of financial waste.
The FGN may have finally come to the realization that the privatization scheme is a scam and has decided to disconnect itself from the national grid.
The states must now emulate the Abia State model in order to finding a lasting solution to the electricity sector which has continued to prove intractable.
@hotseat
If PDP’s partial privatisation of PHCN has not worked out well then how could Pẹnkẹlẹmẹs minister report that 150 million Nigerians have adequate electricity
The partial privatisation of PHCN by the politicians who gave us 16 years of widespread prosperity has worked.
It has been a spectacular success, just like the privatisation of NNPC’s petrochemicals division to Indorama two decades ago.
anonimi: How Indorama sustains manufacturers, boosts Nigeria’s FX earnings
Indorama Eleme Petrochemicals Limited (IEPL) has emerged as a major value creator in the Nigerian economy. It is responsible for the survival, growth and sustenance of many manufacturing companies in Nigeria today. A large number of plastic and allied firms depend on the Eleme-based company for petrochemical resins (or polymer resins) which serve as their raw materials.
The petrochemical company is just one of the several subsidiaries of Indorama-Nigeria Group, which also comprises Indorama Eleme Fertilizer & Chemicals Limited (IEFCL), Indorama PET Nigeria Limited, and Indorama Port Operations.
Since Indorama Corporation of Indonesia became core investor in the old Eleme Petrochemicals Company Limited (EPCL) in 2006 through privatisation programme of the Federal Government, the group has become a game changer in the Nigerian economy.
The petrochemical company has solved the major challenge facing a number of manufacturers— poor access to raw materials. Rather than scramble for foreign exchange to import inputs, the company ensures that manufacturers have access to their critical raw materials, enabling them to save costs and improve margins.
The major resins used by plastic and allied companies are polyethylene and polypropylene. Indorama produces about 45 grades of these products for various industries. About 600 of such companies in Nigeria depend on IEPL for their survival. They are estimated to have over 90,000 workers.
eepeepook: Aso Rock has left the grid. Nigerians will truly suffer. In the same way I get shocked whenever NEPA takes people’s electricity and laugh at news of the grid failing, our presidents will think all the bad news concerning electricity are made up.
Sensible ones have since parted from the grid. I pity una wey remain. 5 million Naira will solve your electricity issues for half a decade. Remain stingy to yourselves. Una too like hard life.
You are completely out of touch with the great news about electricity from A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC.
Pẹnkẹlẹmẹs minister has confirmed that APC did what Fashola promised to do in six months once Nigerians vote out PDP 11 years ago.
advanceDNA: Dont be shocked that someone will still pay aso rock PHCN bill for the next 10years and it eill be in the budget….
Wellcome to nigeria
Is this because you and other Nigerians don’t engage adequately with those we allow to be our senators and representatives in Abuja on budget matters
Otherwise, what would make the 469 senior and junior federal lawmakers fail to reflect the desires of their constituents in their budget oversight functions?
Richtaiwo: Pitobi is the very definition of a hypocritical clown,

Ask him about Abacha, and he’ll solemnly declare, “Abacha was a dictator”, all while forgetting that he once dined and whined with him.
If Obi is a hypocritical clown then what is Jagaban of Borgu?

Maxymilliano: The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has explained why he delegated some members of the party to respond to questions posed to him. According to the former Lagos Governor, he adopted the delegation method “to show team-ship”.
Tinubu spoke at the Chatham House lecture titled: ‘Nigeria’s 2023 elections: In conversation with Bola Ahmed Tinubu’, monitored by The Nation.
At the lecture, Tinubu after his opening remarks, assigned Kaduna Governor Nasir El-Rufai to speak on how his (Tinubu-led) government would address insecurity and asked the Director of Strategic Communication of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, Dele Aleke, to respond to the question on oil theft.
AMINDA: Were they? I wasn't aware. Last I checked, the EFCC chairman promised to resign if he fails to jail Yahaya Bello while nothing has been heard about Okowa since he defected to the APC.
But know this clearly, Nigeria will never become a one-party state. We know all this is borne out of fear but 2027 is inevitable.

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.”
