If this is not the usual APC propaganda lies, why are you not providing the verifiable link to where the INEC official said what you claim that he said
ALTERNATEID: Great. Now, let's see the excuse the sore losers will come up with after losing the 2027 presidential election.
Let's see what the twin rogue of Atiku and Obi who both claimed victory in an election they both lost will come up with now.
How can Atiku and Obi be worse rogues than Tinubu?
Which one of them is the tax master planner for a state that squeezes trillions out of the public yearly without matching it with government services and utilities
FriendsAndFans: Egbon every one in the ADC is opportunist who has no good of the masses at heart.
They are all just hungry.
Are they more hungry and more opportunistic than everyone in Oshiomhole’s Assembly of Past Criminals, APC because those ones have only the good of the masses at heart
Any politician that wins an election and decamps with the mandate should never be allowed to contest on another party’s platform. The man is a political prostitute
Is it possible for political parties to make candidates to swear an oath to resign from their positions if they decide to decamp? Lawyers in the House, is that possible?
Will you call the politicians who receive the decampees, a pimping strategist
Their hunger is in solidarity with millions of Nigerians who Tinubu has renewed their hopelessness due to failure to deliver the promised jobs that would help them earn a living in dignity.
Just noise. If you want to make a claim back it up with data and facts.
What is Jagaban of Borgu doing with his higher August revenue target plus $84 billion subsidy savings if he is borrowing more than PDP presidents, despite bragging that he’s stopped borrowing
Thankfully for him, Utomi is not in your group of nitwits.
What % of the money do you think he got as commission for his double agent work
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.
Ezewuzie01: So Peter Obi that used Anambra money to build brewery and shopping malls for himself and his family, is not corrupt?
What has the more corrupt leader of Oshiomhole’s Assembly of Past Criminals, APC done with his higher revenue target of August, since he is borrowing more than PDP presidents who gave us cheap petrol and better life all round?

Mubiola360: you are not sincere with yourself. You are projecting FOREIGN DEBT in Naira? Project it in dollar and see a dreastic reduction and real figure of our debt. If Nigeria owe $100 dollar in 2023 that is 40,000 according to Emefiele pegged #400 : $1 although black marker greatly differs.
If Nigeria still owe $100 as at 2024 that is #170,000 in naira at #1700: $1 . Fast forward to today, #1355 : $1 ,that means Nigeria debt is #135,500. 100 dollar is constant but naira value changes. It is observed that the debt in dollar terms has reduced by over 15% from when Asiwaju can into office. So something like $85 now with my example.
Tinubu is cluelessly taking both domestic and foreign loans.
Deal with this fact instead of trying to balablu yourself with the exchange rate he has destroyed in three years of hitting the ground running aimlessly like a headless pig.
Will NNPC continue to pay subsidy, which they mask as under recovery, for the imported fuel despite its own refineries that have been operating in the past 11 years with the one in Port Harcourt exporting fuel since December 2024
The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation has announced that the Port Harcourt and Warri refineries have been successfully re-streamed after a nine-month rehabilitation exercise conducted by its in-house engineers and technicians.
The corporation, in a statement, noted that both plants commenced preliminary production of petroleum products after successful test-runs, adding that while PHRC was ramping up its operation to about 60 per cent of its 210,000 barrels per day capacity, WRPC production was projected to hit 80 per cent of its installed 125,000bpd capacity.
The NNPC said the Port Harcourt refinery was projected to boost the nation’s local refining capacity with a product yield of five million litres of petrol per day, while Warri refinery would contribute 3.5 million litres of petrol.
Providing insight into the rehabilitation exercise, the NNPC noted that it had to adopt the phased rehabilitation strategy after the Original Refinery Builders, who were initially contacted for the project came up with unfavorable terms.
It said, “Though a decision was taken in 2011 to rehabilitate all the refineries using the ORB of each of the refineries, we were impelled to switch strategy after the ORBs declined participation and nominated some partners in their stead who came up with outrageously unfavorable terms.”
The NNPC stated that the nominated partners, as sole-bidders, came up with humongous price offers after two years of thorough and exhaustive scope of work definition and price negotiations.
It added that the proxies were also unwilling to provide post rehabilitation performance guarantees.
The corporation said, “The phased rehabilitation strategy which entailed phased and simultaneous rehabilitation of all the refineries using in-house and locally available resources in line with the spirit and letter of the Nigerian Content Law, also involved the use of Original Equipment Manufacturer representatives to effect major equipment overhaul and rehabilitation.”
The national oil firm said the phased rehabilitation programme, which started in October 2014 after the required funding stream was established, created a 70 per cent reduction in costs which helped largely in mitigating the financing challenges of refinery rehabilitation.
It observed that with the successful re-streaming of the PHRC and WRPC, attention has now moved to the 110,000 barrels per day Kaduna Refining and Petrochemicals Company which was billed to come on stream soon.
saintopus: Dec 06, 2024 The PH Refinery ships its first export of petroleum products to Dubai. The company is expected to load the cargo in the coming days onboard the Wonder Star MR1 ship, signalling the commencement of operations at the plant and the exportation of petroleum products.
The ship will load 15,000 metric tons of the product, which translates to about 13.6 million litres.
Although the volume coming from the NNPC into the global market is still small, the development has the potential to impact the Very Low Sulphur Fuel Oil (VLSFO) benchmarks in the future while changing the market realities for Atlantic Basin exporters into Nigeria and other regions.
The sulfur content of the export by NNPC stands at 0.26 per cent per wt and a 0.918 g/ml density at 15°C, according to Kpler, a data and analysis company.
The cargo was reportedly sold at an $8.50/t discount to the NWE 0.5 per cent benchmark on a Free on Board (FOB) basis.
Kpler reported that the development would help displace imports from traditional suppliers in Africa and Europe, as Nigeria’s falling clean product (CPP) imports are already decreasing, dragging imports into the wider West Africa region lower as well.

‘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.
olaiya2007: This innocent news will just cause depression for some people
Please do you know if this has also caused depression in petrol price, to the N70 promised by Oshiomhole’s Assembly of Past Criminals, APC when they bewitched us to abandon PDP’s widespread prosperity policies for their extreme poverty breeding, palliative sharing progreThief policies
How much per litre do you think we are being forced to pay for the massive corruption in APC’s oil sector now?
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.
AustineE1: ....so as our foriegn debt has risen by how much percent?can some one answer this question. In just one year Nigeria's external debt rose by 83.89 percent, jumping from ₦38.22 trillion in December 2023 to ₦70.29 trillion by December 2024.
I wonder how the children of Emilokan favour will spin this statistic about worsening debt burden for Nigerians 🇳🇬 under the brilliant president who is also the TAX monster planner for waterless Lagos
A truly magnificent turnaround by Mr Tinubu's government.
The World Bank is now projecting Mr Tinubu's mini economic miracle to other countries around the world facing similar challenges but that have not found a way out e.g Argentina, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and many African countries among others.
This is the first truly methodical government Nigeria has had for a long time.
Since when did failure to deliver on promises become brilliant to smart people?
If any of these rumours are true then why has Jagaban of Borgu failed to deliver on his N300/$1 short term goal 33 months after hitting the ground running?
What is brilliant about this failure in spite of Tinubu’s $3.3 billion SPV loan from Afreximbank that is secured by future oil sales? The loan was specifically to defend the Naira and facilitated by Elumelu’s UBA at an outrageous rate of 11.85%
The children of hate and followers of madman advice utilizer will not be happy
Are you happy with the increase in debt burden in the last three years, despite $84 billion subsidy savings and Tinubu hitting his higher revenue target in August with a false claim of not borrowing?
How much happiness do you derive from this anomalous situation
Chucks13: El Rufai rest we know you all game plan, we saw it before today how it all began but unfortunately it will end in drain pipe.

Obi I will say it a million more time we will never allow you to rule Nigeria if you like relocate to the front of NASS and be sleeping there we nor send you no matter how you try we will never allow you to win any election in Nigeria till you kpai
Did you also know Tinubu’s plan is 2015 to destroy Nigeria with his expired Buhari of four years earlier, when he made him president?
What was Tinubu’s plan in switching to APC palliative sharing progreThief policies to worsen extreme poverty, unemployment and insecurity from idle people
Switching from PDP’s widespread prosperity that was built on deregulation and privatisation policies!!!

Did the previous administration invite Trump to violate our sovereignty, killing innocent northerners while claiming to be looking for Muslim terrorists accused of genocide against Christians?
Are you really sure you know what far means, or what better means
Lithiumite: You need to remember your yesterday so you can understand your today and plan your tomorrow. Let that sink!!
What should Tinubu’s betrayal of Igbo and Yoruba peoples tell us about his self centred greed to fight for and grab power, only to run aimlessly with it for the sole purpose of increasing the tax burden on Nigerians for his August revenue target bragging rights, while telling lies about not borrowing money?
What future can we expect from such a corrupt and incompetent leader looter

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
The same stand Adeyinka Grandson gave on the death of Fasoranti's daughter is where Tinubu, the leader of the Yoruba Conservatives stands. Please see Tinubu's video below. pic.twitter.com/COhiSvabqW

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....
However, the leader of the team, identified only as Tambaya, and three others are yet to be found.
Tambaya has been declared wanted by the police and he is said to be capable of communicating in Hausa, Fulfude and Pidgin English.
Lithiumite: Words of a politician against his arch rival,kindly juxtapose that with his statement on el rufai whom he worked with directly and could have been considered his prodigy,which is more damning?
Same atiku el rufai is pandering to at the moment,he had thrown under the bus in the past despite it being on record he atiku brought him into govt......el rufai is equally a turncoat and an outrageously flippant character......he is no different from any other politician, even his successor wouldn't want to touch him with a long poll,that tells you the kind of person he is.
Whatever you accuse El Rufai of doing, how has your Ayédèrú idol not done worse?

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.
KIDfurniture: All of them are the same ! Thieves and evil politicians- I don’t trust any of them but the one with conscience is far better than tinubu the evil man. Endsars massacre in Lagos was engineered by this same evil man.
They don’t care about us.
Are you sure that 200 million mumus in this Luggardian contraption care about ourselves, with our minimal participation in politics and governance issues?
Is our minimal participation not driven by tribalistic views of zoning and rotation to avoid marginalisation in sharing the national cake, which is corruption

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.

Are you saying he is just like Jagaban of Borgu, the serial betrayer of not just Yoruba people, but also the entire people of Nigeria
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.
Lithiumite: Does that make him entitled to being directly involved in the govt,I can wish something and I can get advised against it by those around me,it's my choice to heed or otherwise and if el rufai didn't get what he wanted from this govt does that mean he cannot later.......el rufai didn't do anything more for tinubu than the likes of wamakko, al makura,yari,sani yerima,sanni bello and co,are they in anyway directly in this govt? But they are still loyal to their party ..... principles,that's what your el rufai lacks and his entitlement mentallity is his undoing and this is the beginning of his end.
The joke is on you as it's obvious your short man devil is shedding premium tears because the cookie has been taking from him and he isn't mincing words about it,trust me,it's so damn beautiful to watch.
Is it “so damn beautiful to watch” Jagaban of Borgu worsening insecurity in our country because he is too clueless to understand that being president is more than just being a tax collector
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.
