The ADC has said it has no preferred or favourite presidential aspirant but has set out to first put out a platform that would be attractive and acceptable to majority of Nigerians.

“We are doing this because we do not want this great ship called Nigeria to sink because if we do not rise up, and now, they will sink all of us.

“I don’t own this party more than any of our members and I urge all members to prepare to show Nigerians that ADC is a different party," the interim Chairman, David Mark has said.

Exactly my thought as that is what he did in the last election.

Only his followers had no idea he never intended to win that election, rather his plan is to split the votes and weaken the party.

Which Kwakwanso also did in the north.

Where were all these armored vehicles, helicopters, and personnel when the bandits/herders or whatever name they call them were killing, raping and maming the villages?

DeOTR:
You're assuming the oil producers are not the one overpricing their products?

IPMAN has always complained that Dangote price is higher compared to the cost of imported products.

Now exporters are saying Dangote is underpricing the crude.

Read between the line and tell me who is extorting the system?

Nigeria to block export permits of oil producers not meeting local refinery quotas

https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/nigeria-block-oil-export-permits-producers-who-do-not-fill-refinery-quotas-2025-02-03/

Why are we so hypocritical with the truth?
Dangote is underpricing the crude and overpricing the refined products and the FG is wilding the big stick to ensure Dangote makes more profit but same cannot be done to ensure Nigerians get fair pricing.

If these foreign refiners buy at a higher price, transport it to their countries, refine it and transport it back to Nigeria and it is still cheaper than what Dangote is selling, what does that tell us?

Inflation in Nigeria started and is still being sustained by the Dangote group.

The rich should allow the poor breadth.

Acekidc4:
Ajaero and his gangs of thieves. Today you talk one thing, tomorrow you change am, is that not sign of Madness🤔

I pity whoever takes Ajaero and his team serious.

A team that cannot look after it's own.
After agreeing to 80k minimum wage with FG, the FG brought a new type of maths never seen before to calculate worker salary and they said nothing, cos they have collected their cut.

Up till date which civil servant receives the agreed minimum wage based on wage calculations that we know?

Non.

What has Ajaero and his team done nothing.

They are here again trying to cash out from this as they did on minimum wage.

God help Nigeria and Nigerians.

All is well.

If the refineries are working and the imported fuel is still cheaper than the locally refined fuel why should mportation stop?

Do you OP and those in your camp want to kill Nigerians?

Crude is from here, refinery is (or are) here and the cost is still high, is it not wickedness?


The monopoly you people are fighting for, for dangote, when it comes no one should complain o.

Dangote started this hyper inflation by jacking up the price of cement astronomically, then sugar and all his products followed and other manufacturers followed suite.

And here we are today still fighting to give him monopoly over fuel. The so called PH and other refineries will short down immediately importation is banned Leaving Dangote in monopoly.
Have you ever seen him compete favourable?
Never!
Rather a policy will be formulated to give him monopoly as usual.

Or are u not surprised that NNPC is the sole distributor and pricing agency?

We should continue creating monsters that will make life unbearable for people because of our selfish or myopic interest.

I know God will always make a way for his own.

God help Nigeria.

Are lectures the only ones underpaid?
There's is even better compared to engineers, docors and other professionals, or why do you think these skilled hands are leaving the country in drolls?

Is it why lectures have bei the worst electroal umpire, from federal to state to local level.

Until you learn to get it right you will never get what you deserve.

SmartPolician:
I pity those who will fall for this trap. Buying those refineries now is like buying a faulty Mercedes 230 when others are buying GLE 450. Where will you get the parts to fix it?

Using new parts to fix wornout parts of the PH refinery is one of the reasons it never meets the repair completion target. Once they try to power the refinery, another part breaks down.

Pity my foot.
After using government funds to refurbish the refineries, same so called politicians will turn around and buy it for peanut like they did other government agencies that were either privatized or sold.
For your information those refineries were never in comatose, constant maintenance was being done just that the powers that be (NNPC and Co.) was making more money from importation so they wanted the refineries to appear down.
Do you know how much is budgeted for the turn around maintenance of these refineries yearly?
That is to tell you something is wrong somewhere. Cos after such heavy investment you cannot tell us you were investing on a comatose refinery.
All things being equal I pray we find our feet as a nation cos our politicians and their cronies are getting richer while Nigeria is getting power.
God help Nigeria.

Atiku and all who intend to contest the next presidential election should as a matter of fact cease responding to dimwits and focus on kicking this accidental government out of power.

I don't trust anybody amongst them cos after all their disagreement in the media and election days these same people sit and drink tea together and share the loot but I believe in if you mess up u don't deserve a second chance.

aariwa:
Somebody mentioned here that the day Nigerians start becoming more aware, start rushing CNG instead of fuel , that tinubu will increase the price and make it at par with Petrol. That person is right and have been vindicated by this statement from tinubu…if we can predict based on tinubu antecedent of abysmally ruining everything he touches , then we can predict that CNG will get to 700-800 naira by March starting from now on

This is not even the painful part.
The painful part is that nobody is talking about how dangerous the cng converted vehicles are. The are just a moving time bomb.
Let they the politicians be the first to convert all the vehicles in their convoy to cng, I am not talking of brand new cng vehicles, i am talking about converting them at their conversion centres in the country or are they telling us they can afford Petrol at any price so the rest of us can either follow suite or take the risk on a daily basis.
Cng is cheap but it's disaster isn't . When you look at our bad roads no sensible person will consider cng even at ten naira per liter.

So what has the government put in place to assist the citizensery in dealing with the thunderstorm or is it to just inform us and leave us to our fate.
Have water ways been cleared to ensure free flow of water, have all blocked channels been cleared cos if all these are done there will be no need for all these warnings.
All is well.

Only that we will now be bowing to local powers.

How about Dangote crashing the price of cement, NNPC crashing the price of petroleum products and CBN crashing the overly high exchange rate?
Why not start with these and see if everything else will not follow?

Another relative of Uncle Lai,

Shameless politicians, networks that has continuously degraded in quality of service for the past four months both in calls and data.

If the cables were cut was it fixed during the protest for service to be restored?

Or it fixed itself?

God save Nigeria from these leader without conscience.

Nigeria's agric sector is destroying Nigerians.

So should they allow the agric sector to destroy Nigerians?

Emzedz:
The cost of a brand new prado jeep is more than 100million naira. Fed. Govt paid for each for senators, house of reps members, ministers, n other head of government agencies.
Don't be deceived F.G. has the money to pay but as usual what we will see is renewed shege.

We are our own problem in this country.
Can u imagine people are already helping the FG to trim the proposed wage to 100k on the excuse that there is no money.

Do they know the take home pay and allowances of president, senators, reps, governors down to councillors many of whom are either school cert or pry school cert holders?

Do they know the rate at which the government in the last 9yrs has hiked the cost of living in this country without comisorate wage increase?

For me I have no issue with the proposed figures, by the NLC leadership even though I don't like their betrayer style when it come to fighting for the workers they represent cos this issue should have hit front burner since 2016 or 2017.

It is either the government pays the said wage or bring down the cost of living to comisorate with whatever amount they propose and if the cost of living should increase again so will the wage of the civil servant.

Thank u.

No be senior colleage u call am?

Him no need advice, him dey find who him go put for front say na so so so person na him say.

If he is really passing through what he says it is he knows what to do just leave him alone.

You educated us with your storylines and poems which always waited for those days as television stations only start transmission by 4 or 5pm and close by 12 midnight or 1:ppam by weekend.

May your gentle soul rest in peace, Amen.

Please add me to the group 09026092776.

galileo180:
Your honest and sincere opinions are highly needed on this.

My brother is about to get married on Sunday and just today, the girlfriend has been threatening to call off the marriage over a little issue. The issue being my brothers' refusal to travel back to our village with her since he needs to be at work on Tuesday, his reason being that there is no movement on Mondays and he is a Banker and needs to be present to open Vault on Tuesday.

Please in your sincere opinion, is my brother wrong and is it a good reason for the girl to threaten him with calling off the event.

Mods please help a brother, please push to front-page as it needs urgent attention.

Didn't they court?
How was she during that period?
So anytime he cannot fulfill or meet her desire na threat him go dey receive.
Na she wan marry am or na him wan marry her?
If he knows what is good for him let him postpone the wedding for like six months and see her character before going ahead or cancelling cos it seems they don't know each other that much.

Kingosytex:
We just dey destroy and demolish things

Why not bring the culprits to book and convert the refinery to government use?
Since they refine fuel of nice and high quality octane value, why not convert it to government property?
Even if the standards fall short, why can't it be upgraded?

Help me ask them o.
Refinery a whole Nigeria cannot build for more than 30yrs now individuals are building even if illegally and you are burning.

Does it not tell us something is seriously wrong with those in government?

A sensible governments worse case senerio will be to acquire and upgrade them, but no, "na the burn burn na him dey sweet them pass", in late Felas' voice.

TemplarLandry:
The man is the culprit.

Where is the man?
Has he committed no sin or offence?
Did the woman do it alone?
Where is her husband?
Is he behind this public humiliation?
Or a secret admirer or jealous lover?
Why is it that in cases of adultery it is only the woman that is apreihended?
Even when it happened in the mans house, only the woman is paraded.

LeoDeKing:
It appears the only solution to this issue of fuel subsidy removal is increase in wages.

But when wages are increased, prices of commodities will respond in the usual language which in effect dampens the increase in wages.

NLC will then start negotiating for another salary increase and if govt obliged again, the cycle is repeated.

We expect govt officials to be resourceful rather than simply following popular demands for wage increase as that will in effect portray them as just empty opportunists struggling to just control the resources.

Get experts in relevant fields to address this issue, I don't subscribe to increase in wages.

You didn't consider the private sector that employs about 65% of the total labour force n if they will be able to implement the minimum wage as NLC might get.

Neither did u take into consideration the army of unemployed that constitutes about 70% of the total population n how they will cope?

This removal will only lead to hyper inflation, which will lead to nothing else but anarchy as the citizens are already flat on their stomach as regards the harsh economy n now this...

God help us all.

Are they seeing the hand writing on the wall that mob action will soon be the reward for their fruitless and heartless polices?

If u people like pass 100 bill to that effect, except u change and make life affordable for the average n common man mob action will soon begin to run after u whenever you show your faces in public.

God bless Nigeria.

Why can't our so called leaders make our villages OK so they can go on vacation within Nigeria instead of going to spend our stolen wealth in another mans country thereby developing them while setting us backward with each passing regime.

And they flaunt these pictures right before our eyes and we hail them.

Don't they know that developed place they run to for vacation is someone's village?

If the leaders of those place are like them will they be going there for vacation?

This is what u get when people not worthy of being followers are made leaders

DatNiggaDaz:
One down. More to go down. The illegality of the Lagos State Government empowering mc Oluomo without regards to the Laws that established and regulates the activities of Trade Unions in Nigeria is absolutely a facist move.

Little wonder a thug and good for nothing miscreant could boldly come out during the last election to threaten Nigerians on whom to vote and not to vote for.

Rascals, no apologies.

If the principal of these Set of dangerous Power seekers is allowed to go scot free with the stolen mandate, Nigerians should forget the essence of their freedom . Tinubu will make Buhari a saint.

One down_for where?
In this corrupt Nigeria?
They are just preparing Oluomo for federal appointment.
After serving Tinubu faithfully at state level?
Watch and see.
That is if the ruling even stands

How many percent of Nigerians make up the federal civil service?
Will the subsidy be removed only for federal civil servants or all Nigerians
What happens to those in the state civil service, private sector and the army of unemployed which is larger then the public and private sector combined even if multiplied by three.
This is just a recipe for anarchy.

God help us.

Are people mad at the man because there was no property to share or because his marriage crashed.
Instead of thinking of how to make a marriage work na how to share property.
Where did we start getting everything wrong?
How can a marriage where u are waiting for the man/Woman to be established so u can divorce him!/her for half his property produce Godly children?
No wonder our society is all about cashing out like our politicians are doing.

MemoriesAndMe:
Only scientific reasons? You didn't even consider the economic and spiritual reasons people slump and die.

Some people haven't eaten for days because of the state of the economy and may convert it to fasting in this fasting period for Christians and Muslims alike.

If that person dies without any meal in his stomach, do we blame scientific reasons for that too?

He said other reason can include which gives room for u to add yours as u did.
The basic thing is we should change the karma mentally some of us have as it does the society no good

Wagwanbrethren:
What nonsense talk is this? I thought you claim to work in the lab, or some kind of doctor? 🤷‍♂️
There are many scientific explanations for why people slump and die, and one of the most common is because of a heart attack. When the heart is not getting enough blood, it can start to malfunction and eventually stop working, which can lead to death.

Other reasons for people to slump and die can include stroke, cancer, and respiratory failure. Not aware of that?

Thanks for your thoughtful response.
It is difficult to imagine in this age and time that when such happens a sane person will ascribe it to ikarma at work.

No wonder people were busy taking pictures and doing videos to post online instead of rushing him to the nearest health facility.

We don't value life in this country until it is our own at stake, which is why the police who are partially the cause of this inhumane behaviour will arrest, detain and torture a good Samaritan that tries to help all in the name of investigation.

puremaker7:
Salary will be increased

Saying salary increment is easy but before we shout further, what percentage of Nigerians is gainfully employed?

Will rhe increment be for only public or both public and private sector employees?

Can the private sector be able to sustain the wage increment without going bankrupt or shutting down?

How about the unemployed, the aged, etc?

How will they cope or what will be done to cushion the effect of the subsidy removal on them?

These are some of the questions that needs to be answered before we talk of salary increasement.
