WizardOfNG: Lol. You are one funny guy. Lampooning your own fellow Southerner in favour of brazen Northern supremacists and born-to-rule imperialist who dont give a toss about your Obi or doing what is right on behalf of other Nigerians.
Where were you when ebilokan made his fellow southerner Jonathan a one term president in favour of his cluelessly expired northerner?
Same "bigger" Atiku, Tambuwal, Sule Lamido, Bala Mohammed etal chased Obi out of PDP and away from.her primaries.
We are not going to let you get away with this lame attempt to rewrite history.
anonimi: 2023: PDP and politics of healing Wike’s self-inflicted injury
Then, the race began in earnest for three years now, reaching a frenzy with the works of the two PDP committees on zoning. The first was the Gov Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi committee on the zoning of the PDP party offices. The Ugwuanyi committee quickly told the world the committee’s assignment did not cover zoning the office of the president. Though this was true, the question is: why didn’t the Ugwuanyi committee zone the PDP chairmanship to the North without aligning it to the divide that would produce the PDP presidential flag-bearer? The second committee headed by Gov Samuel Ortom of Benue state was specifically on the zoning of the presidential ticket and, with the votes of the representatives of all the 17 Southern states without any exception, the Committee unanimously recommended throwing open the PDP presidential ticket, which the PDP NEC simply upheld.
One thing irrefutably stands out – Wike shot himself in the leg. Here was a man who had an overarching influence on both committees but could not insist that the ticket be zoned South. Many had wondered why? The reason is also relatively in plain sight: the Southeast factor. As the clamour for zoning of the presidential ticket of the PDP to South reached its crescendo, many had pointed out the fact that though the PDP Constitution had prescribed zoning of the office of the president to be between North and South since the South-west and South-south had taken their turns in producing the president and the vice in this current dispensation in the persons of Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, zoning this time around, should not just be to the South but the Southeast.
Atiku Abubakar went a step further by offering to step down from the race if it would be agreed that the touted zoning to the South would mean micro-zoning to the Southeast. Wike and the rest could not take the Atiku challenge maybe because Atiku would likely back Peter Obi, who was his vice-presidential running mate in 2019 and an ally. The prospects of Peter Obi picking the ticket if PDP zoned South was so real compelling Wike to go for an open contest, believing he could pick it up ahead of Atiku, Tambuwal and Bala Mohammed, given his large war chest.
Just remember that when you are doing your self-destructive naked dance across Nairaland praising your slave masters.
Address your tears and wailing about slave masters to ebilokan, whose destructive naked dance of selfish greed plunged us into APC shege that was fraudulently packaged as change in 2015!
Highways: Where Are The Cows? Is Evans A Herdsman?'
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.
SoftSport: Kudos to Tinubu for his leadership and Wike for his initiatives, let's focus on ensuring transparent and fair electoral processes like we had in 2023 not baseless allegations of delegate inducement of something that happened as far back as 2022.
Please why are you confusing failure with leadership and initiatives
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.
helinues: Hahaha, okay so we should keep fried fish with a cat overnight right?
Atiku is a joker. When the power portfolio was given to Atiku, instead of fixing the problem, he complicated it by inviting Mikano a generator company to Nigeria
You are a worse joker with your incredulous lies. Was Atiku the VP in 1993
1993 Established Mikano International Limited
1998 Set up the first assembly line for power generators in Nigeria Mikano becomes an authorised dealer to sell, repair, service and provide warranty for Perkins UK generator
Putindbutt: Lol, like a polygamous man vowing to fight against marriage to multiple women. The reason Atiku made Dubai his second home is because he has married a new wife secretly and hid her in Dubai.
Talking about corruption, OBJ would be laughing so hard. If everything works, Atiku should be in same jail room with Nnamdi Kanu for several fraud and scandals. Even his new bedmate, Elrufai said it.
If Atiku, who has never held executive power at state or federal level should be in jail for corruption then where would ebilokan be?
He should be given the Samuel Doe treatment for stealing money from Lagosians all these 26 years without employing civil servants and paying them well to achieve what Jakande did in four years.
Do you know how Buhari jailed Jakande for corruption after his only successful coup attempt against democracy
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.”

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?
IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.
papyjaypaul: Courtesy plenty. I just don't have the time to start pulling out these things but while trying to look for the footage I was looking for to reply to anonimi, I saw this one. You guys surprise me with this look down on me shoes you wear. It's surprising and I think maybe people choose to not see these things or they just don't want to see them.
Is this a picture or a video of the Queen opening the door for Shagari, which is the specific faux pas by Shettima
Moreover, your 1981 courtesy was based on our relative prosperity and strength, unlike now that we are extreme poverty paupers scrambling to japa to Britain etc.
anonimi: The migrant crisis in Libya and the Nigeria experience
The drive for survival and for greener pastures has continued to force millions of West African young men and women to gamble with death in attempts to cross over to Europe and other parts of the world. This quest to escape poverty, hunger, unemployment and insecurity, among other reasons, caused a major segment of Nigeria’s population to seek alternatives for better livelihood prospects for themselves and their families.
Those seeking economic survival see irregular migration as the best alternative, given the difficulty and resources involved in migrating through regular and legitimate routes. In many instances, very few of the original number who set out on these dangerous journeys live to tell their stories. While many regularly drown in the Mediterranean Sea, many also die in the deserts, and others are sold as slaves in a modern slave market.
Most of the victims of this trade are from West Africa. Many of them leave home with expectations of getting to Europe and other destinations perceived to have better economic prospects for them, but they end up in the slave merchant nets in North Africa. The victims are put in camps and sold in open markets in Libya, while the international community watches in silence. The geographical location of Libya renders it a transit route for migrants journeying to Italy and many other parts of Europe.
dawnomike: No problem... Just pack your luggage, book a flight back to Nigeria. That's all!!!

250 million lazy people who don’t produce more than 211 million Brazilians.
Do we produce 80% of what 330 million Americans produce?
How much respect do you give the extreme poverty paupers in your own area who have many children
AdeptStudent: That’s humbleness. Nothing is bad about it at all. He is a good man.
How likely is it that a white man VP of a major economy will open the door for the black VP of an extreme poverty country like Nigeria
TheBedWench: The one-drop rule is a social and legal principle of racial classification that was historically prominent in the United States in the 20th century. It asserted that any person with even one ancestor of black ancestry ("one drop" of black blood)[1][2] is considered black (Negro or colored in historical terms).
This concept became codified into the law of some states in the early 20th century. It was associated with the principle of "invisible blackness" that developed after the long history of racial interaction in the South, which had included the hardening of slavery as a racial caste and later segregation. It is an example of hypodescent, the automatic assignment of children of a mixed union between different socioeconomic or ethnic groups to the group with the lower status, regardless of proportion of ancestry in different groups.[3]
The one-drop rule is defunct in law in the United States and was never codified into federal law.

One thing I love about time and posterity is that it makes people eat their dungs.
Wike may be speaking on the basis of how he easily got rid of Obi from PDP in 2023, just like Obi's former Fidelity Bank boy kicked him out of APGA after he laboured in vain to be Obiano's godfather in Anambra.
Obi is a naive politician with propaganda lies and incosistent stories to excite his twitter base of zero political clout beyond their tribal base, which yielded 100% votes in the five SE states for ebilokan indirectly.

Ofunaofu: You say Atiku and Tinubu are the same, but only one of them is currently destroying the country from Aso Rock and that's Tinubu. He came in with bullion vans, and now he’s squeezing Nigerians to death just to recover his campaign spending. Prices are up, the naira is down, and the suffering is real.
If this is the 'renewed hope' you voted for, then Nigerians are more than ready to correct that mistake. Atiku hasn’t even been given the chance to lead meanwhile, Tinubu is proof that the wrong choice already happened. Nigerians are awake now, and 2027 won’t be business as usual."
The question reasonable Nigerians will be asking is whether Atiku was a key player in the privatisation and deregulation capitalism that delivered widespread prosperity and high employment productivity for 16 years of PDP before ebilokan scammed us with his fraudulent packaging of his cluelessly expired northern soldier as APC change messiah when he was nothing but a shege master.
How could an omoluabi scam us with a northerner to replace a southerner Jonathan who was doing so well? How could ebilokan swap prosperity for extreme poverty for his own selfish greed?
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

Abi what has changed for better in our country since 2015
Emergingnation: Flashback: How Bola Tinubu spoke highly of Buhari in 2015, named PDP ‘Poverty Development Party
National leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu had during the presidential campaign in 2015, referred to President Muhammadu Buhari as the only solution for the security and economic challenges facing Nigeria.
During a mega presidential rally, the former governor of Lagos State recalled how some powerful nations in the world returned to army generals when they were challenged, saying “Major General Buhari would revive Nigeria’s economy”.
He named the current opposition People’s Democratic Party, PDP as the “Poverty Development Party saying they had nothing to offer.
His words at the time were; “Every nation has a period of their own challenges, when America was challenged, they turned to one great man, their ex-military general, General Eisenhower. When the French were challenged, they turned to their general, Charles de Gaulle.
“When Britain was challenged, they turned to their general. Today, Nigeria is economically and physically challenged so we turn to General Muhammadu Buhari. He is the right man for the job. If you talk about military experience, he has it abundantly, he has courage, simplicity, he has it abundantly.
“If you talk about great determination, a combination of vision and ability to perform, honesty and integrity, he has it abundantly.
“I laugh when the incapable government, ‘Poverty Development Party’ PDP were talking. They have nothing again to say, they now want to question the qualifications of General Buhari and look for his certificate”.
Following the manifestos in 2015 which projected the APC presidential candidate as a ‘saviour’, Buhari defeated the then incumbent president, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan with Nigerians expecting a total change in security and economy.
helinues: Why are the opposition insisting on rigging in 2027? Is that what they have in mind to do? Apc wouldn't be attracting politicians across the Nigeria regions if they are relying on rigging.
Infact, free , fair and credible election would add to president Tinubu's achievements
When APC said something similar in 2015 and 2019, did they have rigging in mind to do
ganisucks: The All Progressives Congress, APC, has slammed the presidency for its response to the warning by Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State that if the 2015 elections are rigged, the party will not recognize the outcome and will go ahead and form a parallel government.
The APC said in a statement Friday that Mr. Amaechi’s comment represents the stand of the party.
The statement issued in Lagos on Friday by its National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, said that what Mr. Amaechi said at the APC’s Salvation Rally, which has now rankled the presidency, was simply to reiterate the stand taken by the party before the last Osun State Governorship election.
“Those who are fretting about this statement are those who are planning to rig the elections and they should be warned that Nigerians will no longer accept the outcome of any fraudulent polls. Those who incite the people are those who steal their mandate.
anjowaka510: ABUJA- PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has warned those planning to snatch ballot boxes during the elections as he said that those caught doing that will pay with his or her live.
President Buhari who stated this at the opening session of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Caucus meeting in Abuja, on Monday, said that such act would be the last unlawful act the person will engage in.
Putindbutt: Check out the tweet, it is Okonjo Iweala herself celebrating and excited about meeting the President. She couldn't contain her joy, she had to tweet it .
Normal normal as the president of her country and as she is an international figure whose position must be endorsed by her country’s president.

talk2ibk: That's the power of social media. Moreover the police CRU is very active when you have an injustice case against the police just reach out to them.
They are more on the civilian side of the issues.
So what is the problem that A-looter Propaganda Conmen, APC have with social media after they used it to scam us into the shege that ebilokan fraudulently packaged as change in 2015?
Fraudulently packaged his cluelessly expired northerner to replace southerner Jonathan and ended 16 years of PDP deregulation and privatisation capitalism that gave us high employment productivity for widespread prosperity!
GeneralDae: Either Obi has a problem communicating well or he just lies for fun. The problem is not with me but the contradiction caused by Obi.
You are saying he never met Abacha. Obi said he met with both the minister and head of state in his interview yesterday. He also made it clear in 2023 that 30 of them were selected to meet Abacha who listened to them and banged the table. He didn’t say the minister did that. Your position is more contradictory.
Obi’s propaganda lies and contradictions make the devil look like a saint.
bennybuhari: “’I cannot take anything back about Obi. I said Obi said he wants to move Nigeria back from consumption to production and I said that is not true. He cannot do it because his own business survives on consumption. Is that a lie? He has been an importer and I said he deals with cash and carry economics; container economics, imports”.
“All the goods that can be produced in Nigeria, Obi imports them in his supermarkets. That is consumption economics. That kind of person cannot tell you that he is moving you from consumption to production. He will then be committing self-economic suicide and Obi will not do that to himself”.
“So, Obi is deceiving everybody and I can’t take that back because that is true.
givedemwotowoto: Opinions opinions are not facts. Focus on the facts and not a few people’s opinions. How many of those were in Anambra during PO’s tenure?
Even if some of them have been to Anambra, those who live there, over 99% of them approve of his governance as the best, especially now that his investments in education and healthcare are bearing fruits, something they didn’t understand at the time
Obiano’s fact is also part of a few people’s opinions?
newsbook: Anambra State governor, Chief Willie Obiano has re-echoed his allegation that his predecessor, Mr Peter Obi demanded the sum of N7.5billion from him for sponsoring his election in 2013.
Obiano and his predecessor, Obi have had a frosty relationship shortly after his swearing in.
Obi has however denied that he demanded for the sum of N7.5billion from Obiano, saying that his problem with him was his (Obiano’s) underperformance.
Obi said if he needed the said sum, he would have simply taken it from the N75billion he left for the Obiano administration at the end of his tenure.
But Governor Obiano while speaking on Wednesday evening at Ezechima Primary School, Onitsha where he inaugurated his reelection campaigns in Onitsha North Council Area, said the clarification became necessary because of the recent accusations against him by the former Governor.
He stated that his predecessor had demanded the sum of N7.5billion from him as funds spent in prosecuting the election on his behalf, but that he refused to pay the money because it was not true.
Obiano said he refused to pay because he strongly believed that public funds should be used for public good, and not to settle godfathers.
These, he said, was the reason they fell apart.
The governor said that another reason he refused to pay the money was because he was aware that enough money was raised for his campaign by his friends and associates, all of which were never accounted for by the former governor.
On the actual sum the former Governor claimed he left behind, Governor Obiano made it clear that he inherited liability of about N127 billion debt from him in contracts awarded and other responsibilities, which he has been religiously undertaking in the spirit of continuity.
He said Obi flagged off several roads even on the day he was leaving office and saddled him with the burden of paying for it, but he assured the people that he has his eyes on the ball and will not allow anything to distract him from fulfilling his promises.
The Chairman of the Governor’s Re-election Campaign Committee, Chief Victor Umeh said APGA as the political spirit of Ndigbo, has in the past three and half years, availed Anambra good governance at its best, reminding the people that the upcoming guber election was not about Willie Obiano but about ensuring that the state remained free from political godfatherism.
A former Central Bank Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo in his speech said that at this time, the State needs a tested hand like Governor Obiano who has the experience and expertise to effectively steer her affairs.
givedemwotowoto: We know those who orchestrated the lies and propaganda against Peter Obi.

Civil servants and pensioners are been owed 3 MONTHS salary, so many abandoned projects yet the woman sounding governor is always in abuja 24/7.
Please peter obi's handlers on nl should please enlighten us,

ssogundele2003: That's commendable! It's high time these multinationals start obeying our laws!
Those asking where the money goes to?, it's part of the money shared to your respective states.
Is it not part of the huge revenue kept by the federal government at 53% without any impact on government services, amenities, infrastructure and public utilities?
Do you have any idea what ebilokan is doing to all the increased revenue apart from stealing, if he is borrowing more than previous presidents borrowed? Any idea
ManirBK: Aug 28, 2023 The Federal Government says it has no intention to borrow from any local or foreign organisation with its removal of subsidy on petrol and exchange rate harmonisation.
The Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister for the Economy, Chief Wale Edun, revealed this at the end of the inaugural Federal Executive Council meeting on Monday in Abuja.
He said that the benefit of the subsidy removal would be ploughed back into various sectors aimed at boosting government revenue and improving the business environment for local and foreign investment.
Edun said that with the increased revenue from subsidy removal, various palliatives have been made available to cushion its effect on a short, medium and long-term basis.
He reiterated the President Bola Tinubu-led administration’s desire to bring back the economy from the wood it has found itself over time.
flyinnizam: Where does the money goes to. Everytime fine fine fine.
Where does Efcc money goes to? Where does custom seized goods go to?
The fines, just like subsidy savings, increased tax burden on the masses and even loans fund ebilokan’s extra luxury and is stolen to bribe politicians who he believes will keep him in office for extra level APC shege to continue.
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.
moscow007: When an evil man is in power the poor suffers
Evil is now being amplified in Nigeria.
Never again!
HE P.Obi is coming
Wike will ensure that Obi never comes, just as he made sure in 2023 by getting rid of him in PDP to divide the votes of the deregulation and privatisation capitalists who gave us 16 years of widespread prosperity and high employment productivity, before ebilokan replaced it with APC extreme poverty from his cluelessly expired northerner. A northerner to replace better southerner Jonathan.
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.
Jamsam: But deep mind he knows the truth, he might be and might not be corrupt
If Wike is not corrupt then why has he failed to use the increased IGR revenue from Abuja residents that is outside the TSA single account, to employ workers for water supply in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) of the giant of Africa. Ordinary water o in this 21st century.
If emperor Wike is not corrupt then why is he unable to pay primary school teachers who have been on stricke for months, thereby depricing Abuja children of education? Wike is not just corrupt, he is also wicked.

RISQUE: Game on. I love the ADC I love Atiku I love Peter Obi I love Amaechi I love El-Rufai I love Araegbesola.
I love Nigeria. Nigeria is in dark times. We need to see the light again.
Indeed we need to have light restored by those who made it happen for 16 years with PDP before ebilokan recycled his 2011 CPC expired leader looter as the messiah of change from APC.
How did we allow ebilokan to use a clueless northerner to replace a better southerner Jonathan as president 10 years ago? Na which kind juju be that
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
TimeManager: Atiku don dey kolobi delegates already, no time to waste time, Lol. Meanwhile Obidients are on Twitter threatening fire and brimstone for the ticket to be thrown at the laps of the Agulu candidate.
This una Fuji house of commotion, we will sit back and watch it to the end with popcorn and chilled zobo.
-Kiss the truth!
The truth is that you are watching it to the end with A-looter Poverty Congress, APC daily bread palliative for Yorubalokan BATists, shared in the absence of promised jobs to earn a decent wage for living in dignity.
Glimpsetv: 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.
Watch the video, share your thoughts in the comments.
Maxymilliano: Sad that NNPCL had to wait for Dangote before initiating price reduction
It is even more sad that Dangote is leading the small small price reductions mixed with intermittent increases when the NNPC reineris have been producing since 2015 as announced below, a year before BUhari and APC removed subsidy in 2016 with trillions saved after just a few months.
Antiurchins: Everything Tinubu promised he will do, he has done all of it within 2years in office. He promised to slow down the economy, widen the tax net, and reduce purchasing power.
Is that why he bragged about his own self assessment below after two years hitting the ground running
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.
