favor914: Isn’t it ironic to you that the said Ribadu who vowed in 2007 that Tinubu will not escape, works for Tinubu today . Just a pity the way these so called politicians, will continue deceiving u helpless lot.
How are u not the leader of the helpless lot, being a fan of the useless rogue who made Buhari APC change messiah in 2015, just four years after calling him expired
MIKOLOWISKA: How did apc attack you work hunger Did they stop you from eating? Self employment? Is it them that caused you to be unproductive that caused inflation? attacks are violence So making up words
Please let me know if you need more examples of how clueless policies of the balablu bulaba town hall clown have attacked and destroyed Nigerians.
Nigeria loses 47% of dollar millionaires, retains 4th position in Africa
Nigeria has lost nearly half of its dollar millionaires over the past decade, with the population of high-net-worth individuals falling by 47 per cent between 2015 and 2025, according to the 2025 Africa Wealth Report by Henley & Partners in collaboration with New World Wealth.
Despite the sharp erosion in private wealth, Nigeria retained its position as Africa’s fourth-largest hub for dollar millionaires, with 7,200 millionaires, 20 centi-millionaires (individuals with investable wealth of at least $100 million) and three billionaires, trailing only South Africa, Egypt and Morocco.
The report showed that South Africa remained the continent’s wealthiest country by number of dollar millionaires, with 41,100 millionaires, 112 centi-millionaires and eight billionaires. Egypt followed with 14,800 millionaires, 49 centi-millionaires and seven billionaires.
Nigeria’s ‘Biggest Economic Threat’ Is Unemployment, But Data to Guide Policy Missing for 14 Months
Nigeria’s top economic risk for the 2026 economic year is unemployment but the country has not published any official labour statistics to measure its rate since November 2024, FIJ has found.
On Wednesday, the World Economic Forum’s Global Risks Report identified lack of economic opportunity and unemployment as Nigeria’s leading threat for the 2026 economic year.
The report also identified inadequate public services, economic downturn, inequality, and crime as the next four threats to economic stability in 2026.
Unemployment is serious enough for international observers but the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) has not released Nigeria’s Labour Force statistics, however controversial, since the second quarter of 2024.
SILENCE SINCE METHODOLOGY REDESIGN The NBS has been in the crossfire before for publishing Labour Force Data late in 2023 and 2024. In 2024, the bureau attributed the delay to an overhaul of its survey methodology.
At the time, NBS said it wanted to align Nigeria’s labour statistics with international best practices and ensure data quality and sustainability.
But the resulting data caused chaos. According to the NFLS published at that time (q1, 2024), only about 4.3% of Nigerians were unemployed. The data introduced new types of labour categorisation in the report.
Per the new method, anyone who works even minimal hours in a week is considered “employed”. The reliability of official figures was questioned by labour unions, business groups and even economists.
The Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), for instance, described the reported employment statistics as unrealistic. Chris Onyeka, the NLC’s National Assistant General Secretary, called the report a “voodoo document” and a “fabrication designed to mislead the public”.
Similarly, Gabriel Idahosa, President of the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), said, “The technical improvement in the employment rate is more of a way that employment is now calculated; but the reality is that the economy is not looking like an economy where unemployment is significantly reducing.”
Since then, the NBS has not made any attempt to publish labour data.
xcolanto: This is a staged performance! More like content for creation selling the narrative that Apc is being harassed and targeted too. Not buying it it's a scam! Try again because this has failed to achieve it's purpose.
This makes a lot of sense, based on how desperate Tinubu is, to cover up his failures in government.
chinchum: This is really shameful;that some opposition supporters support attacks surprises me. The opposition does not have enough muscle to start and finish such attacks once the govt. in power backed APC starts in full force, it will seem very oppressive then. Nigerians are so hypocritical and deceptive liars. Imagine supporting and justifying attacks on other party members.
Are you unaware that Tinubu government has attacked Nigerians in full force with worsening hunger, poverty, unemployment, hyperinflation, insecurity etc
christistruth01: Atiku no get mouth to talk when corruption is involved
Atiku has more than mouth to talk, as a saint, when compared to the worst rogue politician whose Aso Rock tenancy expires next year.
5 mind-boggling revelations from Obasanjo’s ‘My Watch’
5. Tinubu was one of the most corrupt, of the 36 governors
Obasanjo never got along too well with former Lagos state governor, Bola Tinubu, and unsurprisingly, Tinubu got a mention in the former’s book.
Obasanjo revealed that then EFCC boss, Nuhu Ribadu tried to investigate almost all the state governors during his tenure but that of the 28 confirmed to be manifestly corrupt or tainted one way or the other, Tinubu’s case was one of the worst.
Lagos — ABIA State governor, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu and his Lagos State counterpart, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu would not escape justice but would be made to face the full wrath of the law following their recent indictment for alleged corruption by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Chairman of the commission Mallam Nuhu Ribadu who made the vow yesterday said the duo must account for their stewardship and may be thrown out of office.
Eleponblue: You see why these people will keep on weaponizing poverty?!...abeg tell me what a fully employed or actively engaged biz person will be doing here....🥴
How do we work together to enlighten ourselves to reduce the impact of this weaponised poverty on our people
WizardOfNG: No obsession bro. I simply have issues with the likes of you, Odin13, Anonimi etal who support a Northerner to usurp the turn of the South. The North and South are adversarial and think differently. The realities of the North and South speake for itself. 87% of the most poverty stricken Nigerians are Northerners. Who caused that if not Northern leaders since independence? Are you blind to what Awolowo achieved for Yorubas? Sage has been dead a while now yet North has produced no one like him ever and you back a Northerner to usurp the turn of the South? Backwards Almajiri system that is the biggest recruitment officer for terrorism and Banditry is being retained by Tinubu or the inaction and lack of bravery of the likes of Atiku you support? Educational disenfranchisement of the girl-child in the North, while women in other regions soar to great heights, home and abroad, because of educational empowerment is the fault of Tinubu and not the likes of your hero Atiku? He cannot make it a life project to be the reformational Awolowo of the North instead of sojourning in Dubai to then return to Nigeria every election year to demand the Presidency? Dude, I don't hate the North. I deal with established facts and logic such as the confirmed reality Northerners have some of the worst human development index known to man on Earth. Their leaders caused that directly confirming Nigeria can never develop to become Singapore under a Northerner unless someone like Dogara becomes President and even he will struggle because the likes of Gumi and radical clerics everywhere will not allow abolishment of Almajiri system,that is drastically required or prioritisation of education, especially that of the girl-child, plus family planning to prevent uneducated and unskilled folks birthing loads of children they cannot care for who then go on to be terrorist and bandit menaces to society etc, etc, etc. There is no Northern President who will not be constrained, by his people, to lead in ways that favours how the North wishes to live which is not how the SW, for example, wish to live. I.e progressively like Singapore, UK, Iceland, Canada etc. I've lived most of my life, since early teenage years, in the UK. I know what a developed nation is where people are truly empowered and that is not Nigerian and certainly not the North which is an example of the worst in the world because of the failures of Northern leaders your ilk support to usurp the turn of the South in the power stake. This is why I dislike folks like you not critical-thinking enough to note South must have her 8 years and North theirs also for fairness. Our turn must never be usurped. We should accord them their turn, for peace and unity of a badly divided nation, but they must respect our time in power also because no single Northerner, as you do, will support a Southerner to do what Atiku is doing. I e support a Southerner usurp the turn of the North. The way they threaten Tinubu is disgusting, El Rufai and Baba-Ahmed etal, because this nation belongs to us all and we are not their slaves. They get their 8 years of gradualism and sideways movement, as we saw under Buhari, we get our 8 years of reform-led governance that can move us towards becoming like Singapore, hopefully under Southern strong men like Tinubu, unlike innefective GEJ or what Obi will certainly be, many are today comparing to Lee Kuan Yew. Lee Kuan Yew transformed Singapore so dramatically, into a desirable developed nation, British folks are now moving to for a better life despite being the former colonial masters of Singapore. Listen to the dude below and tell me if Atiku can conquer what he identifies and his sad conclusion the North will never allow Nigeria to become what she is meant to be. Nothing personal against you bro I just believe you and your ilk simply hate "Yoruba Presidency" more than you love Nigeria and her progress. That's why I address you regularly as I believe you are wired wrongly. View what the Northerner below is saying and tell me how Atiku or any other Northern leaders will fight if for us to be sacrificing valuable days , months and years the rotation agreement allows a strong and resolute reformer, like Tinubu, in power to make Nigeria a Nation where the progressive South is not constrained to remain backwards like the North.
Was it the turn of the south in 2003, in our tribalistic rotation to share the national cake?
Was it the turn of the south in 2011?
How has Tinubu kept up with Awolowo’s educational record in 27 years of his Lagos a-looter master plan?
Meanwhile, what is the role of senators and representatives in the federal government
madridguy: Lagosorigin I can see you happy with the human rights abuse, but don't come out tomorrow and start asking how do we arrive at this. Continue promoting violence and oppression but when the jungle mature, we will remind you.
Why was the clueless Igwe abusing the human rights of the people by asking them to vote for his balablu bulaba town hall clown
Is he a good reflection of the people who allow him and other politicians to emerge from among us into public office, using tribalistic zoning and rotation to share the national cake of corruption
laiperi: No matter what we do, doctors will continue to leave for their country of choice because that is where we train them for.
How many Community Health Officers have left the country after training?
Train doctors the way China train their doctors for China. From Barefoot Doctors.
Even India with almost the same "International Standard" mentality as Nigeria, keeps more doctors at home than Nigeria because they are trained for local remedies. Ayurveda barefoot doctors.
Apart from the children of Babalawo that were lured to medical schools through Primary Healthcare, Nigerian doctors specialize in "Abroad Diseases" taking overseas exams before they even graduate.
Do Chinese people drink water from shitty potholes and struggle to pay private school fees for their children, like we do in Tinubu’s Lagos and other states of Nigeria?
Why were Nigerian doctors and other professionals not doing japa before 1980s?
BENEAMATA: The money that enables virtually every state to pay their workers promptly , keep varsity lecturers in classes instead at home for months in as a result of strikes , that triples states' and local government monthly allocation , that is funding infrastructures , where is the government getting those? Micro-finance bank ? Propaganda . Your better options were saving money in their bank they have family shares,, invest in beer factory or the one that almost sold off all Nigeria's assets and is even now playing the bring back subsidy card .
Why is Tinubu borrowing more money than PDP presidents who gave us cheap petrol, cheap dollars, widespread prosperity to be the biggest African economy, and even better roads?
LagosOrigin: This is where the Fuel subsidy money has gone and some mumu people are applauding this tinubu government for the subsidy removal This is where the subsidy money is being spent Tinubu won't make policy that will not favour him the most
So why did Obi disagree with Atiku about production subsidy for local refineries
Is he just as wicked , clueless and corrupt as Tinubu in governance
NLCreator: Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections, has defended the purchase of sports utility vehicles (SUVs) for members of the national assembly.
There have been reports that the leadership of the 10th national assembly has bought SUVs for all lawmakers.
Each SUV is said to be valued at N160 million.
The LP had asked members of the party in the national assembly to kick against “wastage”.
While responding to questions during a press conference in Abuja on Monday, the former governor of Anambra said the SUVs are not personal cars of the lawmakers, noting that they are for official use.
“Let me start with the issue of Labour Party members in the house. I have actually discussed this issue with them,” Obi said.
“Surprisingly, I can tell you I heard that these vehicles are official cars. They have to use it. It is meant for office.
“So it is not as if it is their vehicle. They said it is official cars and you are meant to use it while you are in the senate.”
Obi also hinted at contesting for the country’s number one position in 2027, adding that Nigeria deserves dedicated and visionary leaders who will lead the country towards a brighter future.
Jayhome24: I h8te responding to you cus you ain't worth it. Read what I said again and again take a breath to assimilate it proper.
"I SAID IF ALL MINISTERS CAN RAISED NBILLIONS JUST TO GET MINISTERIAL POST THEN NIGERIA MUST HAVE OVER 100 MILLION BILLIONAIRES" meaning its all.lies, lies and lies from losers...I ghotara?
Is your APC spokesperson the loser here, for telling us that dull Bola..made people pay billions to be appointed minister
Saturday 24th October Katsina United vs Plateau United Ranchers Bees vs Doma United
Sunday 25th October Abia Warriors vs Niger Tornadoes Barau FC vs Kwara United Bendel Insurance vs Rivers United Ikorodu City vs Shooting Stars Kun Khalifat Vs Inter Lagos Nasarawa United vs Enyimba Warri Wolves vs Kano Pillars
All matches kickoff at 4pm
Our southwest derby against Ikorodu City will be very interesting to watch, as we work on getting a decent result for draw or even a win.
Jayhome24: Very funny statement. When I read stuffs like this it show sign of pain and loss cus both atifku and that small stout in UK drunkard did all they can to make Tinubu reply them yet Tinubu didn't reply them which is the best answer for a fool. Head dey pepper atiku and stout drunkard like mad. Ministers paid Billions to be selected if that is true then Nigeria really have over 100 million billionaires then if even pipu like Betty Edu, Ade Ojo, Keyamo etc can drop Nbillions for ministerial post. Atiku I'm not surprise at you at all the moment you went to a region where they believe Buhari is from Sudan and its a clone Buhari no way useless rants like this won't emanated from your camp. What should anyone expect from Ibe and okonkwo? Nothing more than fallacy and propaganda it's a blood line thing.
If we have so many billionaires then why can’t we employ enough well paid civil servants to make pipe borne water available to everyone?
The federal government is not responsible for water supply in cities and towns. This is the responsibility of states.
500 gallons of water go for N20k. Multiply by 4 in a month, that's N80k. By extrapolation, that's N960k in a year on water alone. Why? Because the governor believes that clean and accessible water is the least of his worries. Yet they prance around like Enugu is Abuja even though the red muddy soil will have residents looking like they went tomb-raiding at night.
But then, considering where it was before Peter Mba, one can understand the accolades being that he moved the town from 16th Century to 17th Century but not anywhere near 20th Century. 21st Century is a stretch. EEDC? The worst of all.
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.’
ajalawole: Useless government.... You want to sell at 1350 and you call that discount. What happened to selling below 500 per liter. Even if you sell fuel at #5, by next year Baba Chicago will be in Lagos home resting.
How is below N500 the same thing as the promised below N185 made when the agbero was fighting for power, to grab and run with it cluelessly like a headless pig 🐖?
Deltafirstson: Although the pump price of fuel was N197 when President Bola Tinubu took over on May 29, 2023, the product now sells for N617 per litre – less than two months after.
In his inaugural address, Tinubu announced that subsidy was gone, fulfilling a promise that all leading presidential candidates made during the campaign.
Nigerians have been lamenting the hardship occasioned by fuel price hike. Amid the lamentation, a video where Tinubu campaigned to slash the price of fuel went into circulation.
Checks by Daily Trust affirmed the authenticity of the video uploaded on the YouTube page of Channels Television.
At his campaign rally in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital, on January 25, 2023, Tinubu spoke on a number of issues, but those of fuel scarcity and naira redesign made the headlines.
However, Tinubu who spoke in Yoruba language, also assured the crowd that though people were saying petrol price would hit N200, it would be reviewed downward under him.
“The great Nigerian youths, the great Nigerian students, the confident Nigerian youths. This is a revolution. This election is a revolution. They are plotting, but they will fail. They said fuel price will increase and reach N200 per litre. Go and relax, we will bring it down,” he had said in the 7th minute of the video.
IamPatriotic: Oba Akiolu has business interests in Nigeria and elsewhere outside the country. He doesn't sponsor bandits and cattle rustlers.
Do you mean that he is not like Tinubu, who begged Buhari to make Jonathan a one term president, after their party invited terrorists to destroy our country
FreeStuffsNG: The Governor is a Made-in-Lagos, SW, Nigeria. He is positively different and I hope he keeps achieving more. APC will continue to give more light and service to Nigerians.
More propaganda is different from light and service.
Enugu is a LEADING state in Nigeria. It has GOOD roads and one of the BEST power supply in Nigeria.
It's great to see PRIVATE investors deploying more MONEY to take advantage of that.
Does the state have enough well paid professional teachers to make education free for all children? Abi it has less than 5% schools run by the government, like the horrible situation in Lagos State after 27 years of Tinubu a-looter master plan?
boxypane: Corruption could disrupt this plan if public funds are diverted or mismanaged, preventing the intended benefits from reaching ordinary Nigerians. I'm sure they are already washing their plates to eat...
Is there any master strategist in corruption than the guy whose Aso Rock lease expires next year
Abi you know why Tinubu is borrowing more than previous presidents after removing subsidy, to make petrol unaffordable, if not stealing and corruption?
Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister for the Economy, Mr. Wale Edun made this known at the end of the inaugural Federal Executive Council meeting in Abuja. Mr. Edun said that the benefit of the subsidy removal will be plough back into various sectors to improve business environment for local and foreign investment. He added 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.
Ofunaofu: Report: Current Govt Added More Debt in Two Years Than Nigeria Accumulated in 55 Years
• Decries Nigeria’s debt service-to-revenue ratio
•Urges FG to declare fiscal emergency
A new policy brief has warned that Nigeria’s worsening debt profile and weak revenue generation have pushed the country into a dangerous fiscal position, with the current administration accumulating more debt in two years than Nigeria recorded during its first 55 years after independence.
The report, released by the Alliance for Economic Research and Ethics LTD/GTE, a Nigerian policy think tank, argued that the country’s debt crisis has evolved into a governance and revenue emergency, as debt servicing obligations now exceed the federal government’s retained earnings. > > According to the think tank, Nigeria’s public debt rose sharply from N87.38 trillion in June 2023 to N159.28 trillion by the end of 2025, with President Bola Tinubu’s administration accounting for about N65.9 trillion of the increase within its first two years in office.
The organisation in the brief titled: “Nigeria Is Borrowing to Breathe—and the Clock Is Ticking”, noted that Nigeria accumulated only about N12.06 trillion in debt from independence in 1960 up to 2015, meaning the current administration added more than five times that amount in just 24 months.
The report stated that while previous governments also contributed significantly to the country’s rising debt burden, the speed of accumulation under the current administration had intensified concerns over fiscal sustainability.
“President Bola Tinubu’s administration has added a further N65.9 trillion in just two years. To put that in perspective: it took Nigeria’s first 55 years of independence to accumulate N12 trillion in debt. The current administration has added more than five times that amount in 24 months,” it argued.
It recalled that Nigeria briefly became almost debt-free externally after the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo secured an $18 billion Paris Club debt relief package in 2005 and paid $12 billion to extinguish about $30 billion in external obligations.
sleek214: Stop beating round the bush. Bring back fuel subsidy
Wicked Tinubu is too busy stealing billions of dollars saved from subsidy removal to bribe politicians for his reelection. He won’t bring back subsidies.
"I know of States that have received over 500 billion Naira from the Federal Government as palliative, but I have never received anything.
I think the reason I don't get it is because I'm not in APC.
AndroBlaze: Sometimes I wonder if there can ever be hope for this country if the Northern Elite keep behaving like this.
Imagine not even being ashamed to film and publicise this. Almost everything that seems to pull us down is celebrated and magnified in the north.
But you will not see the "elite" like Aminda criticizing this sort of behaviour that has become a culture among them. When even Atiku was afraid to criticise something as straightforward as Deborah's lynching.
Is Lagos in the north, and is Tinubu a northern elite?
Where is Tinubu’s criticism of Deborah’s lynching? Someone who never criticised northern elites and people when he was fighting and grabbing power. He rather betrayed Yoruba people and southerners several times to favour them.
