I've never seen US and UK citizens praising their leaders for doing the needful
There are worst things happening in over 300yrs older countries than 60year old Nigeria and truly they celebrate infrastructure just like us. See:

IGBOSON1:


He’s right! One has to be naive not to know this was all what Buhari wanted power for….to take more than their fair share to the muslim core north while telling the rest of the country there’s no money! Don’t look for paper-trails showing how the funds were acquired and diverted to the north! In all probability you may not find such a trail! These hegemonic northerners are as willy and sneaky as they’re bigoted! Pray, what does Kano do that generates the money they’re using for building these ‘notice me’ projects!? Besides their cornering a larger share of our commonwealth through inflated population figures, useless landmass and a plethora of LGAs, where else is the money coming from!? And don’t even get me started on Katsina in general and Daura in particular! This is all what ‘one Nigeria’ is to these people, and why they’re obsessed with wanting to sustain it….even as quite a lot of them despise Igbos’ with passion!

A oil and gas state like Imo has been so cheated that it can’t even find the kind of the funds available to Kano, Katsina or Kaduna (both legally allocated and got through wuruwuru), but they will expect everyone to keep quiet and join them to be cheering on Buhari and Nigeria!?

I wonder the level of daftness in you. Every month FEC publicise FG, State and LG allocations and sharing figure including the 13% given to oil derivation states which isn't even included in the sharing but you are here embarrassing yourself out of excessive ethno-religious bigotry, shame on u.
Go and check how Delta state received about N1trillion from 13% derivation with nothing to show in leas than 10yrs. You are so used to ineptitude leaders and bad governance that is why u are wondering where Northern Governors got their money for their mega projects. Go and check monthly FAAC!

And the result, when number of votes > number of accredited voters = cancellation.

NYSC / Re: Brig-Gen Yusha'u Dogara Ahmed Appointed New NYSC DG by ArewaNorth: 5:09pm On Jan 26, 2023
Venerable612:
No offence to this guy, but why all these last minute appointments by Mr M. Buhari.

This position shouldn’t even be headed by a Military Personnel 🤷‍♂️

Much of what is done is forcing graduates to work as teachers in half-baked schools scattered around the country.

This institution should be thinking around upskilling graduates with monthly trainings to develop critical skills (particularly Tech related) and placement to all companies in the country - helping them become employable.

It’s quite painful they still enforce 1970s ideas in the 21st century.


The former NYSC boss committed infraction and was suspended late 2022 and NYSC staff was asked to serve as Acting before replacing the suspended officer that is why this appointment is made. Govt always renews or appoints new heads of her offices.

Her conscience wouldn't allowed her to sell Tinubu to Nigerians....

May be you don't know her but we who know her for more than 2 decades in the game, knw who she is. Najaatu was with Buhari between 2003-2007, she moved to Atiku's camp in ACN during his Presidential campaigns at that time raining abuses on Buhari for no reason. She managed to join merger and became internal enemy of Buhari just because he didn't give her ministerial appointment, she was bitterly disappointed and frustrated but the question is how could Najaatu be picked as a Minister from Kano? In what capacity? How many people can Najaatu canvass for political support?
Najaatu is a featherweight politician. She may have political value but close to zero electoral value.
What came out of her mouth is enough to judge her conscience. From publicly stating that she stops partisan politics by indicating lack of ideology to running down to a candidate who has no passion or love for Nigeria, a renowned enemy of the Nation who has never in anyway build the Nation but put her in a path of destruction when given 8yrs chance.

Politics / Re: This Picture Of Obi In Southern Kaduna Brought Tears To My Eyes by ArewaNorth: 5:15pm On Jan 21, 2023
fasterwell:
The moment I saw this picture of the labour party presidential candidate Peter obi touching down in Southern kaduna and the response from the few people who came to welcome him, iI immediately had flashback of all the terrible news of opression endless killings, abduction, rape and destruction of lives and properties in Southern kaduna

It then dawned on me that they are yearning for liberation after suffering for so many years. The way the lifted up their hands like someone in deep and rapturable worship to the almighty God shows the reflection of their hearts and sincere desire to be completely free from all their worries.

Like the people of Macedonia whom the Apostles saw in a vision saying COME OVER TO MACEDONIA AND HELP US, THE PEOPLE OF SOUTHERN KADUNA IS SAYING TO PETER OBI "COME OVER TO SOUTHERN KADUNA AND HELP US WHEN YOU BECOME NIGERIAN PRESIDENT".

May the almighty God use the 2023 presidential election to bring in someone that will bring lasting peace to the people of Southern kaduna because they have suffered enough in the past.

Why the selective sympathy?

The South West is the only place at the receiving end of the contrivance called National integration for which the scheme was originally designed, and this is because it's the only relatively or comparatively safe place in the country but the scheme does not statutorily allow for its indegenes to have a space there, save an imprint of "runz".

Politics / Mass Resignation Hits BBC Hausa by ArewaNorth: 10:39am On Jan 18, 2023
At least nine journalists with the BBC Hausa Service in Nigeria have resigned in the last one month in what is described as “unprecedented” in the history of the international media outlet.

Daily Trust learnt that the affected staff members comprised two senior digital journalists, three social media journalists – two of whom are senior reporters – a senior bilingual reporter for Hausa/English Africa, a multimedia reporter and two video journalists.

It was gathered that while five of the journalists left last December; the four others resigned on Monday to join newly established Africa section of Turkish Radio and Television (TRT) in Istanbul.

“This is unprecedented in the history of BBC Hausa. Nine journalists of BBC Hausa have joined soon-to-be-launch TRT Hausa after the Turkish government decided to establish TRT Africa: Hausa, Swahili, French and English for Africa,” a source at the BBC confided in our correspondent.


The source said Nasidi Adamu Yahaya, who resigned as senior digital journalist, would head the Hausa service at TRT, with other senior journalists, Halima Umar Saleh and Ishaq Khalid as his deputies.

Asked what led to the mass resignation, one of the journalists, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said they were primarily motivated by the Turkish media’s resolve to tell positive stories in Africa.

He said: “TRT wants us to change the narrative of storytelling. Other international media organisations have been reporting mainly hunger, wars and other negative narratives about Africa. There are good, positive stories in Africa – business and employment opportunities. There are cultural values, sports, innovations; people that are involved in artificial intelligence-related work. These are what TRT Hausa Service will be covering. Many international media are not reporting these things.

“We’re not saying we’re not going to report Boko Haram, banditry and others, but we have other positive stories. There are human angle stories on Boko Haram. We want to give Africans voices. People should be heard about their positive stories; not just negative stories always.”


The journalist, who also described the resignations as “unprecedented,” confirmed that “the last set of journalists tendered their resignation letters today (Monday).”

“Some of them are leaving today while others will leave in few days’ time. Five of us left in December. In Nigeria, BBC Hausa has more than 40 journalists, but now, about one third of us are leaving. It has never happened in BBC Hausa Service,” he added.

Politics / 2023: Tinubu, Shettima, Rank High On Google Search In Past Month by ArewaNorth: 4:44pm On Jan 17, 2023
Popular internet search engine, Google, in its recent statistics, revealed that the flagbearer of the All Progressives Party, Bola Tinubu, and his deputy, Kashim Shettima, are among the most searched individuals in the last month.

Noting that trends data demonstrates search interest in a subject or person, via its google trend section, it was, however, stated that the information is not used to predict voting behaviours among the electorate.

In its data analysis tagged, “On February 25, 2023, Nigeria will elect its next president,” the APC presidential candidate, being the highest searched individual against his opposition, had a 42 per cent search rating.

Moreso, his running mate, Kashim Shettima, also ranked top on the search engine as regards the forthcoming election. Among his peers as vice presidential candidates, Shettima ranks high with a search percentage of 38 per cent.

However, the Labour party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and his running mate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, ranked second based on Google’s data.

Based on its findings, Google reports that both Obi and his vice presidential candidate had 28 per cent searches on its site.

In third place was the Peoples Democratic Party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and his running mate, Ifeanyi Okowa. They both polled 27 per cent of searches on the site.

Meanwhile, Rabiu Kwankwaso had only 3 per cent of searches on the site, according to the statistics based on the 2023 elections

You guys need to know the truth about the fact that most of what U.S is advocating against is incredibly happening there to some extent. Read the report below and learn more about the hypocrisy of those people you think are saying the truth.

Child marriage is currently legal in 43 states (only Delaware, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island have set the minimum age at 18 and eliminated all exceptions), and 20 U.S. states do not require any minimum age for marriage, with a parental or judicial waiver.

When Joe Biden won his first election as an American Senator, Obama was still a young naive college student.
But in 2008, he saw the potential in Obama and accepted to step down his Presidential ambition to become a running mate to the first black Presidential hopeful.
That singular act paved way for his Presidency today.
He may not say it publicly but I know he(Kwankwaso) is regretting the blunder.
As for his party, being PO's running mate will not affect his candidates cos political parties can adopt another party's candidate as their candidate for a particular position.
You don't understand politics if u truly believe Kwankwaso is contesting for 2023. He is just gathering the momentum, becoming famous and will soon be the prince of the North after exit of Buhari. His candidacy is in line with political calculation that layman may not understand.
In 2023 it is obvious Kwankwaso would've wasted his time and diminish his popularity by staying in PDP or deputizing a character like Obi. If not because of ethno-religious jingoism, how can a person of Obi character be remodeled, reshaped and dubiously amplified as Presidential candidate despite having no good track record of competence, hardwork, strong leadership skills. Going by his past antecedents, Obi isn't worthy of being a Governor in states like Kano, Kaduna, and Lagos.
