The Permanent Secretary, Office of Drainage Services and Water Resources in Lagos State, Mahmood Adegbite, has said that people drilling borehole in the Lekki axis of the state is probably drinking ‘’shit water.”
While speaking at a stakeholders meeting in the state recently, Adegbite noted that contaminated boreholes in Lekki pose health risk and added that treatment of waste water would eradicate any form of disease that may arise from it.
He said, “On waste water treatment, I will say that everyone digging borehole within the Lekki axis is probably drinking what I will call ‘shit water.’
obonujoker: What about the already removed subsidy funds
What are they being used for?
That one is being used for more luxury items for the president and stealing to bribe politicians for his reelection mobilisation.
Datsall!!!
chisomkachy: Nigerian President Bola Tinubu’s first supplementary budget includes a fleet of SUVs for himself and his wife, a presidential yacht and the renovation of his villa amid a cost-of-living crisis for some of the poorest people in the world.
The proposal — which seeks additional funding beyond the annual budget approved by Tinubu’s predecessor — comes as the government asks Nigerians to persevere through pain caused in part by a raft of economic reforms ushered in by the new president. Africa’s most populous country faces rampant unemployment, soaring food prices and a plummeting currency.
Federal lawmakers approved the president’s request for extra spending on Thursday, but eliminated the provision of 5 billion naira ($6.01 million) to buy a presidential yacht. Instead, they doubled the allocation to a student loan fund to 10 billion naira, according Abubakar Bichi, chairman of an appropriations committee in the House of Representatives.
The lawmakers approved 1.5 billion-naira proposed to purchase SUVs for the office of First Lady Oluremi Tinubu — an amount larger than that allocated to many individual federal colleges. The supplementary budget also proposes almost 6 billion naira to purchase SUVs for the presidency — more than the amount initially allocated to fund a student loan program for poor families.
Can someone please provide the list of the 40 roads completed by eb1lokan with the $84 billion subsidy savings that has made petrol so expensive, along with everything else!
Kiss the truth.
TimeManager: The Federal Government has revealed that the elimination of the petrol subsidy under President Bola Tinubu has resulted in savings of over $84 billion, which are now being channelled into the construction and rehabilitation of 40 key road projects across the country over the past two years.
This was disclosed in a policy brief released by the National Orientation Agency (NOA), titled “Two Years Later: Key Benefits of Subsidy Removal,” and made available to journalists over the weekend in Abuja.
The report, which reviewed the outcomes of the subsidy removal since May 29, 2023, noted that the policy averted a looming economic crisis.
It also enabled the Tinubu administration to clear long-standing financial liabilities, increase capital investments, and support the financial stability of state governments.

We have the assessment of the finance minister to compare with the current situation.
thisweekng: The Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy Chief Olawale Edun has said the last time Nigeria’s economy looked stable was about a decade ago.
He made this statement during his maiden press conference as Minister of Finance where he outlined President Bola Tinubu’s vision, agenda and strategy for the economy.
He said, “I think as we all know, we are not where we should be. The economy is barely growing above the rate of population growth.
“But it was not always so, and I think in trying to look at the way forward, if we now have a situation of slow growth, double-digit inflation, weak/depreciating exchange rate, as well as security concerns that are resulting in an economy that is not growing and not taking Nigerians out of poverty.
“If we think back to the last time when the economy was stable- when it was growing, when inflation was low, and the interest rate was affordable, that period was about a decade ago. Growth was about 6% in 2013 and 2014.” Private sector to drive the economy
May Day: Hunger, unemployment, insecurity real— Tinubu
According to him: “The theme demands our collective attention and serves as a stark reminder of the need to create an environment where every worker feels safe, valued, and empowered to contribute to the growth and prosperity of our nation. As your President, I assure you that this administration is committed to creating such an environment for the common good.”
On the economic hardship, he noted that while it is a global phenomenon, its effects on Nigerians are particularly severe.
Tinubu said: “I am aware of the peculiarities of the economic hardship Nigerians face—rising living costs, hunger, insecurity, unemployment, and the loss of livelihoods. These challenges are real and demand definitive solutions, which I am poised to address as your President.

Buhari called youths lazy, leaves record number jobless
In 2018, President Muhammadu Buhari claimed that Nigeria’s youth want to “sit and do nothing, and get housing, healthcare, education free”, sparking an outcry on social media under the banner #LazyNigerianYouths.
Less than six days to the end of his reign, findings have shown millions of youths are yet to secure employment despite promises to create jobs.
President Buhari was asked a question after a keynote speech at a Commonwealth event in London, six years ago. > > Using the hashtag #LazyNigerianYouth on social media, Nigerians expressed their anger with the comments, which many said did not reflect the entrepreneurial drive of young people in the country.
Young people in Nigeria face chronic unemployment and underemployment, so the president’s remarks hit raw nerves in a country where many are struggling in a tough economic climate.
Some said Buhari, missed an opportunity during the panel to sell the potential of Nigeria’s human capital and largely young demography to an overseas audience. > > Data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) show that the unemployment rate quadrupled to 33.3 percent as of the fourth quarter of 2020 from 8.2 percent in Q2 2015.

He allowed God to choose and not his emotions and human tendencies! His selfless decision birthed a global church which is one of the biggest in the world. God bless him.

Buhari’ll reduce petrol to N40/L —David-West
FORMER Minister of Petroleum and Energy, Prof. Tamunoemi David-West, said that Nigerians should expect sharp drop in petrol price from the current N87 to about N40 per litre, saying, “the president-elect, Gen. Mohammed Buhari, will reduce the fuel pump price to N40 per litre.”
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.

Watch the video, share your thoughts in the comments.
Beyond his neighbours, there is something about the sight of people hanging around a president’s residence that does not speak well of his leadership capabilities. Maybe no one has nudged him to see it, but the impression that spectacle on Bourdillon Road generates is that Tinubu enjoys the sight of suffering humans and thrives in—and through— their poverty.
If all these years, impoverished people hang around you and you remain comfortable enough to keep them just so they can be handed tokens of your large heart, then it means you have a pro-poverty mindset. Such a frame of mind is oriented toward cultivating poverty rather than stimulating abundance.
That is why he could unproblematically relate the story of his “friend” who went from using five Rolls Royce to a far-less valued car and not consider the import of the nonsense he was saying. That spurious account was an indication that this is a man for whom poverty—of others, not himself—is an ideal.
NewHe: The cries of a drenched perforated umbrella!
What else do they have to say? Lamentations!
Are the lamentations greater or lesser than the lamentations of 200 million Nigerians who swapped 16 years of PDP widespread prosperity for APC extreme poverty shege 10 years ago?

If they continue this way, they may give the military the excuse to strike which would even be better for all of us . Too many looters in civilians regime unlike the military regime where you have only one Looter'
Was it not the military that killed our country before democracy revived it 26 years ago?
Have we not had two military dictators recycled as democratic presidents in 16 out of the 26 years?

We are socialists in nature and even there is one factor ; corruption. We are yet the see the full effect of the trillions of Naira generated from the removal of fuel subsidy. Our roads are still bad, we barely have electricity(even with the removal of its subsidy in some areas), our youths and experts are still moving out of the country for greener pastures, our health care is nothing to write home about, our educational system is very poor and so on .
The government of the day is trying to get funds for infrastructure that cannot be executed in the face of corruption.
When and where did palliative-sharing APC tell you that they are capitalists?
Why should our educational system be poor in APC progreThief states like Borno and Lagos despite PDP’s Obasanjo and Atiku government establishing UBEC to provide federal funds to help states achieve nine years of free and compulsory education for all children?

jaxxy: Yes tunde bakare supported buhari so did many other Nigerians thanks to Jonathan's corrupt government and cluelessness. Sadly buhari became a nightmare Nigerian did not expect.
That doesn't mean tunde bakare and others who supported him were in support of buhari's poor performance.
God of men Tunde Bakare helped eb1lokan to make Buhari president in 2015, after failing to win as his VP candidate four years earlier when the Lagos master planner called Buhari expired.
If Tunde Bakare had any spiritual anointing, he should have known that Buhari was worse in corruption and cluelessness than Jonathan.
Do you have any record of Tunde Bakare opposing Buhari’s reelection in 2019, or he joined most Yoruba people to reinforce the failure to earn Yorubalokan in 2023?
socialmediaman: The 2018 Rating by Transparency International placed Nigeria at 148th position out of 180 countries. Nigeria was improving over the years under the previous government, until Buhari got elected as president, things became worse.
There is a difference between fact and fiction. We need to face facts, Buhari is worse than GEJ when it comes to fighting corruption, at least that’s what the facts prove.
Most of us believed there was corruption under Goodluck Jonathan’s Government. I agree with those who did, there was corruption, but not as bad as it is today under Mohammadu Buhari.
In 2012, Nigeria was placed at 139th position, In 2014, Nigeria gained 3 steps and was placed at 136th position. Under Buhari, Nigeria has lost many positions down to 148th.
There’s no further proof needed that corruption has worsened under Buhari’s government compared to previous years.

NEWS‘I am number 16, Buhari is number 15.‘ The Pastor Bakare prophecy that got everyone talking (video)
Published 6 years ago on September 23, 2019
Founder and Pastor of the Latter Rain Assembly, Tunde Bakare has told all who care to listen that he would succeed Muhammadu Buhari as the 16th President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Bakare who made the declaration during a Sunday sermon said nothing is going to change it because he was born for that purpose to be president even as he said he is confident that, while Buhari is number 15, he would be the 16th president of Nigeria.
According to the controversial clergy, God had prepared him for this job for more than 30 years.
“I will succeed Buhari as President of Nigeria, nothing can change it. I am number 16, Buhari is number 15. I never said it to you before. I am saying it now and nothing can change it.
“In the name of Jesus, he is number 15. I am number 16. To this end was I born and for this purpose came I into the world. I have prepared you for this for more than 30 years,” he said.

“If we think back to the last time when the economy was stable- when it was growing, when inflation was low, and the interest rate was affordable, that period was about a decade ago. Growth was about 6% in 2013 and 2014.” Private sector to drive the economy
Apcshit: Ezekwesili is one of the problem of Nigeria,she orchestrated Buhari presidency by giving GEJ pains
The Bring Back Our Girls (BBOG) protest leader for Chibok, who said that Jonathan was not a hero of democracy in 2015 after his concession call to Buhari?
Has the pretentious woman settled her campaign finance scandal yet
Return campaign funds or face legal action, ACPN threatens Ezekwesili by Ebunoluwa Olafusi February 7, 2019
The Allied Congress Party of Nigeria (ACPN) has demanded that Oby Ezekwesili, former presidential candidate of the party, return all funds generated during her campaign.
On Wednesday, Ezekwesili had accounted for “every penny” spent on her campaign.
The former minister said the campaign raised N48,957,416.00, $17,645.00, and £200, from October 1, 2018 to February 2, 2019, before she withdrew from the presidential race.
He said the accounts rendered by her was unacceptable, while alleging that there was no transparency in what was stated.
“We are rejecting everything she submitted in entirety, we want to know all the content of the accounts and see the accounts because at the end of the day it is not the presidential candidate that INEC will hold responsible according to the law but the party, and whatever any candidate generated for his or her campaign belongs to the party,” he said.
deji17: Maybe a new citizens too . Because many of the citizens are unbelievable in their beliefs and expectations
You are very correct, because it is from among the people that leaders emerge to legislative and executive positions in the federal, state and local governments.
Omooba77: Former Minister of Education, Dr Oby Ezekwesili and the Founder of the Citadel School of Government, Pastor Tunde Bakare, have noted the need to groom a new generation of leaders who are grounded in values, equipped with the competencies to champion good governance, and are completely called to nation-building.
The same Tunde Bakare who led the subsidy removal protests in Ojota 13 years ago when petrol was N87, just one year after he and Buhari lost the 2011 election, because eb1lokan called Buhari expired?
If he is grounded in values and spiritual competencies to champion good governance, then why did he not see through Oshiomhole’s Assembly of Past Criminals, APC playing politics with the protest?
DrMB: After a whirlwind year of high-level summits, state visits, and international forums, BAT is finally taking a 10-day working vacation in Europe. But here’s the question: will this be just a well-deserved break, or a strategic mission in disguise? Which meetings might be happening behind the scenes? And could this leisurely European getaway hold the seeds of new partnerships, deals, or policy moves?
chisomkachy: Nigerian President Bola Tinubu’s first supplementary budget includes a fleet of SUVs for himself and his wife, a presidential yacht and the renovation of his villa amid a cost-of-living crisis for some of the poorest people in the world.
The proposal — which seeks additional funding beyond the annual budget approved by Tinubu’s predecessor — comes as the government asks Nigerians to persevere through pain caused in part by a raft of economic reforms ushered in by the new president. Africa’s most populous country faces rampant unemployment, soaring food prices and a plummeting currency.
Federal lawmakers approved the president’s request for extra spending on Thursday, but eliminated the provision of 5 billion naira ($6.01 million) to buy a presidential yacht. Instead, they doubled the allocation to a student loan fund to 10 billion naira, according Abubakar Bichi, chairman of an appropriations committee in the House of Representatives.
The lawmakers approved 1.5 billion-naira proposed to purchase SUVs for the office of First Lady Oluremi Tinubu — an amount larger than that allocated to many individual federal colleges. The supplementary budget also proposes almost 6 billion naira to purchase SUVs for the presidency — more than the amount initially allocated to fund a student loan program for poor families.
tommykiwi: No be small thing ooo. This politicians are just enjoying themselves. Am just sorry for those people that will want to die for them.
Corruption everywhere.
Whether people die for politicians or not, they will continue to determine every aspect of life through public policy initiatives.
anonimi: “The worst illiterate is the political illiterate, he doesn’t hear, doesn’t speak, nor participates in the political events.
He doesn’t know the cost of life, the price of the bean, of the fish, of the flour, of the rent, of the shoes and of the medicine, all depends on political decisions. The political illiterate is so stupid that he is proud and swells his chest saying that he hates politics.
The slowpoke doesn’t know that, from his political ignorance is born the prostitute, the abandoned child, and the worst thieves of all, the bad politician, corrupted and flunky of the national and multinational companies.”
Is this because the poor people allow the rich to get richer at their expense?
Imagine paying taxes and other IGR things without having ordinary water supply? Is this Lagos situation different from what is happening in Anambra and other states
The Permanent Secretary, Office of Drainage Services and Water Resources in Lagos State, Mahmood Adegbite, has said that people drilling borehole in the Lekki axis of the state is probably drinking ‘’shit water.”

He said, “On waste water treatment, I will say that everyone digging borehole within the Lekki axis is probably drinking what I will call ‘shit water.’
