Power is greater....power brings money...

Tinubu can make policies that will destroy Dangote in months ....but Dangote have limited influence on Tinubu

Watch billions (a tv series) to understand this

After 47 years! fu*K....that's almost 20 years before I was born oooo.....

Blacks really suffered from the hands of these white folks....

Guys abeg fear women ooo......dem still dey finish man even after fourty seven years....

Dem don finish Greewood, na Anthony own remain now.... the world no dey hear the man, na woman dem dey hear...

And again, stay away from spiteful ladies....wey no dey allow things go easily

Why are u pple like this?! I mean ppl chanting for war....go and ask Syrians today....after 10 years, Syria has been leveled and Assad still remains their president after a decade of ruin....the ppl living peacefully suddenly became refugees in Turkey and neighboring countries....

What annoys me the most is that most of the ppl lightning the gas of instability are not resident in the country. When yawa starts now..dem no go dey

To me, they all have no case against Tinubu.....

No one was able to prove amongst them that they have a higher number of votes than Tinubu

Their main arguement is on technicalities and legal interpretation i.e the Abuja 25% issue

The primary objective of both Obi and Atiku is to disqualify the candidature of Tinubu base on academic discrepancies and his supposed crime of forfeiture.

Putting all these together, I think both Obi and Atiku's case will be thrown out

Dont let anyone deceive u....religious difference is a big factor especially when the children come into play....

All those love go fade for una eyes....na reality go remain especially if either one of the couple leans towards being devoted. This is surely a grave issue....

Even if u succeed is ur early phase, research has shown that ppl tend to be more religious as they grow into the geriatric phase of their lives...so it's an issue one will tend to deal with throughout their lifetime...

But una own get as Im be sha! Atheist and Christianity....maybe he go work sha...

But some things I know in marriage are d following:

Marry the person who understands that couple have different role to play....someone with similar financial ideology.....similar sex drive.....similar religious beleive...

What type of developmental project can come from a brain that thinks like this?

These people especially the English press are trying to morally and emotionally abuse these players moving to the Saudi Pro League.

Of course money is critical!....the English premier league became the best league in the world due to money....West ham and Brighton at the moment can outbid any Italian team in the market not to talk about the EPL top six....

Moreover, these clubs are the ones chasing these players away.....Ronaldo waited and waited for an European team to sign him all to no avail....dem now dey cry say na money!.....

Tuesday and Wednesday night football is welcomed back to the emirates....... COYG

shut up which igbo? that is why I hate you guys u always tribalise every issue

Baba calm down....I be Yoruba boy......wetin I talk na say i love the resilience of Nigerians especially the Igbos....
make una dey calm down oooo

My ultimate salute to every Nigerian making waves all over the world.....the doggedness and resilience of we Nigerians particularly the Igbos is always an inspiration to aspiring wavemakers like us......

Shoutout to we legitimate hustlers!...... we shall definitely shine....na small small...we too go reach there.

Rufai Oseni is obviously a sentimental journalist with the Arise TV crew. I actually dont respect the guy coz I think feel like he is just a baby in an adult body. Very hypocritical.......the incidence with the LASTMA officials coming back to memory.....they know how to talk but always fail to practice that they are preaching....

To those thinking that Tinubu is liberal.........he is not ooo.......the fact is that nigeria politics has advanced....he cannot do anyhow ....if he does, he go see anyhow...... just take a look at the ENDSARS protest...

though it seems we are stagnant at the moment, i believe we are progressing.....our polity is improving and people are increasingly interested in who is leading us.....what remains is this local government autonomy to wrestle power away from these greedy governors.....

In recent times, Nigeria has witnessed a surge in what can only be described as narcissistic behaviors exhibited by a handful of individuals. Undoubtedly, the hunger for change runs deep, which necessitates the dismantling of existing norms to pave the way for new beginnings. Yet, the strategies adopted by some segments of our society to usher in this change have taken on a rather questionable and less-than-impressive tone.

The emergence of social media as an influential force cannot be underestimated. Across the globe, platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram have significantly molded political landscapes, redefining the way people engage with power. Remember the Arab Spring? Social media platforms played a pivotal role in propelling this movement to its full potential. And let's not forget the resounding impact of the Black Lives Matter movement, which harnessed the power of social media to spread awareness and drive change. Similarly, social media has been a game-changer in other realms too. It catalyzed the global spread of the MeToo movement, unearthing hidden stories of abuse and exploitation. Not to mention its role in dethroning corrupt figures who manipulated their positions for personal gain, like the recent case of Mr. Luis Rubiales of Spain Football Federation.

However, when it comes to Nigeria, there's a twist in the tale. Take, for instance, the recent "cook-a-thon marathon" led by Hilda. What began as a fun initiative nearly spiraled into chaos as Nigerians flooded social media accounts, subjecting the former record holder, Lata Tondon, to a barrage of unwarranted comments. The fallout was evident as Ms. Tondon took the drastic step of disabling her comment sections. Equally concerning is the targeting of celebrities and influential figures who find themselves at the receiving end of harassment due to their political leanings. One wonders, in the midst of such heated exchanges, whether we are genuinely promoting the ideals of a free state. It seems like Nigerians takes a peculiar joy in intimidation and harassment.

The incident that forced me into writing this morning is the organized assault on the digital presence of Chicago State University. The university confirmed in response to Mr. Atiku legal team, that Mr. Bola Tinubu had indeed been associated with their institution. However, a faction of Nigerians raised doubts and, in turn, directed their frustrations towards the university, demanding the release of Tinubu's academic details. This thus baffles me about what we really want. Do we want actual justice or we just want a scapegoat to be made from anyone associated with Tinubu both legally and illegally? How can you expect a university to release the details of a student publicly without the student’s consent or via a compelling court order?

This incident raises questions about the level of discourse prevailing in our society. While we are all concerned about the state of affairs, it's crucial to maintain a level of respect, especially when engaging with esteemed institutions. Casting doubt on an institution's integrity, particularly when they respond to a legitimate query, is a step in the wrong direction.

These people no dey shame!

They are now in Rwanda? a country that started real nation building post genocide war in 1995.....with commitment and good leadership, they have become the pride of sub-Sahara Africa.....very soon, they will be meeting up with the likes of morocco which will make them the go to country in Africa...and these useless governors dey go gather there for retreat....

may be they will learn one or two sha!

Make Kagame watch out ooooo........he should ensure he supervised all their activities to the letter....make them no carry one or two national assets over there....One deputy governor don carry person wristchwatch for here....

ambale:
The fact remains the government have not really proven to us that there was subsidy in the first place

Cos are they saying they've been paying over 300% of the previous price to unknown entities as they say

Its all a mirage, they only want to make more money with it, now where's the plan even after three months

No one has been prosecuted for subsidy scam, we are in for a very long ride with this issue jere

Are you saying that subsidy of PMS does not exist?......pls na early thursday morning be this...abeg

ufotunang:
...he said because of the 77 trillion naira debts nigeria is oweing... that the federal government is placing high taxes, multiple taxes on the manufacturing sector on industries inorder for the federal government to pay the debts back to the creditors... that the burden is put on the industries through high taxes in order for the federal government to pay back the,77 trillion naira debts

yes i understand, i was expecting them to berate the FG for stiffening their industry due to heavy taxation and not saying "N77 Trillion Debt May Limit Achievements In Tinubu’s Government".....it sounds ironical....

wetin concern manufacturers association with 77 trillion naira debt and Tinubu's performance?!...... Abi dem dey give them free diesel and petrol to run their industries and to facilitate their logistics ni?

He must perform oooo....na why dem remove subsidy be that ooooo.......

We still dey watch now, in the next three to five months and we are not seeing any form of improvements, na to dey curse baba remain ooo....

pocom35:
LOL ..isn't that the support he should get for embarking on a $20bn project ..no human no earth has ever done in Africa.. and you think he can do that with his bare hands.. you look at the state of the economy.... we both know that one of the things that brought this far is the lack of a refinery.. now someone comes to correct not by building one to meet half of out needs but all and surplus for exports..and you think he doesn't require incentive to do it?

don't get me wrong though ..his crime here isn't stealing forex but acquiring them wrongly ..after all he was putting them all into the Nigerian economy by investing in all his project..

politicians have stolen 20x and stacked them foreign banks ...Abacha is a sample, they are not hated as much as someone taking the risk to better the country..

In all sincerity, though I dont really like his business model, I have to give him credit like u said...at least he built something....

But the truth is he won't solve any of our local problems, ...maybe keep some forex in the country actually...

I said this because we can all see the disparities in his cement pricing in Nigeria when compared with other west african countries....he is basically exploiting us here even when the cements are produced here and transported to neighboring African countries for sale.....

He open his mouth and said when his refinery is completed, petroleum products will be sold at international rate....as if the crude will be sold to him in international rate.... as if he will import crude into the country.....as if he will pay customs duties....

My point is this man is an exploiter of Nigerians....his only advantage to me is job creation...

I had an arguement with someone on this platform that Dangote is one of the worst things to have happened to Nigeria. Exploiting his connections with the rogue government officials to siphon the Nigerian population....his cement is another thing...

He cant compete fairly...all his other ventures especially in the food industry was a totall failure....his successfull businesses are the cement and sugar industries which technically are a monopolistic industries in Nigeria

His refinery was practically built by the Nigerian government....he was given tax rebate, free from customs duties and dollar sold to him at a very cheap rate, far below the official CBN rate....

The man is a leech and Nigeria really needs to get rid of him

And wetin the qualified army generals don achieve?

Soboma RIP

One day I’ll become the governor of Rivers State and that will mark the end to all these parasitic relationships

If you like become the president of Rivers state...you guys will never hold yourselves accountable...you guys are given 13% derivatives and the repentant militants are on constant monthly salaries for doing nothing while others are being trained abroad.... you have a special ministry which has been mostly occupied by people from the SS and una go still dey shout parasitic relationship! haba..... you people should hold your leaders accountable jo! abi na federal government turned sapele and warri to the current economic dilemma these cities are currently in now?

these people just dey play us....today gasoline might be expensive and we move to the so called electric okada...once they know that people are densely dependent on their product, then boom they will start increasing their shit....

my friend just spent some monies to convert his Gen to gas enabled....the Gbam!.....the stupid gas association said gas will increase next week... just stay for your lane and watch wella

Sermwell:
Stop fooling yourself here!! So the population of Nigerians started increasing just two months after thiefnubuu"s tenure?? You mean the population didn't increase during Jonathan and even Buhari's tenure??

Continue justifying thiefnubuu's stupidity because he's your tribesman!

are u reasoning along with me at al? ..... this is not about tribe...its just pure fact! im telling you that regardless of who is president, fuel subsidy will go because its not sustainable.....

im telling you that this country has been without a functioning refinery for about forty years now which is due to failure of successive administrations.....

let me ask you a question, why didnt Obasanjo, Yaradua, Jonathan or Buhari fixed our existing refineries?....

Free2Fly:
Cummulative effect of successive failed administrations kiiii!! you there, id!ot.

Who hastily removed the fuel subsidy with no plans to remedy the effects??

Who hastily and ignorantly floated a naira that has no limbs to stand on without thinking about the consequences??

As clueless as Buhari was, he still didn't want to implement these obnoxious policies by himself.

Your druglord ignorantly and foolishly jumped into them and you're busy talking about successive failed governments! What a people!

Rubbish!

pls a little reading will do you guys a favour...... It was Buhari that removed fuel subsidy and not Tinubu.... Tinubu might want to claim it but it was Buhari that actually did it......"SUBSIDY WAS ONLY BUDJECTED FOR TILL JUNE 2023"......please dont be emotional about conversations...just bring your facts and lets talk......no be by verbal violence or let me call it keyboard violence....

Sermwell:
The country has been without refineries for years but the prices of diesel and fuel was never this high!!

Can't you see how stupid and daft you are??

Pls argue base on context...i'm not stupid neither am I daft......to your point....

Do you understand the meaning of subsidy?..... and you understand the concept of foreign exchange and external debt?... and you understand for a fact that Nigeria population is estimated to be approximately 250 million against 125 million in the 2000s which means we spend more on the same income i.e crude oil....in fact we earn less now compared to early 2000s because we atleast had a functioning agro-export industries which in a dilapidated state at the moment.....

What pains me the most is the idiots that called themselves graduates that who to think differently from others are the ones championing and spewing thrash.....

se na one day Tinubu go build refinery?!... your country has being without a functioning refinery for about forty years now....an oil producing country for that matter!..... na Tinubu go come fix am now?.....it doesnt take a reasonable person to elucidate that what we are facing at the moment is a cumulative effect of successive failed administrations....Obasanjo, yaradua, Jonathan and Buhari are all failed leaders........

nothing Obi or Atiku would have done differently as regard fuel subsidy......so, all this shit happening is expected.....

And the Dangote that is building a refinery at the moment said he will sell at international rate......SMH...corrupt leaders and dishonest followers

9jaRealist:
For the avoidance of doubt, I abhor military coups…
But it was NOT the military that introduced corruption into Nigerian governance. The first coup in 1966 was against CORRUPTION!
>

l said "corruption with impunity".....corruption has always being in Nigeria, in fact, its our way of life... but prior to the first coup, it was carried out with civility...at least

How hath the mighty fallen! from messi heir and ballon d'or contender to saudi pro league at 31 SMH.....

This is a lesson to y'all ..... talent alone is not enough....

discipline and hardwork is as important as talent itself......

the military has ruled Nigeria more than the civilians....I stand to be corrected....and yet all na same....

It was the military that exposed Nigerians to corruption with impunity that we are battling today and deprived us of evolving our democratic processes.....

This democratic phase we are passing through now ought to have been experienced over forty years ago but the military no gree... we still dey gather Abacha loot till now!

Those calling for military action are just neonates in adult bodies... they do not know what military rule entails..... when they dont have their twitter and other social media platform again, them go learn. when their businesses are raided at will and theirs goods confisticated, dem go know. when there is no freedom after speech and their wives, sisters and girlfriends are violated at will, them go understand the meaning of military rule....

Baba with zero primary votes dey vex......he is complaining now as if he wasn't jostling aggressively to be the VP of Buhari in 2015.....

Hypocrites everywhere in the country....he is part of the problem....and always embarrassing the sacred name of the most high with false visions and prophesies....

Why the protest?!.... ECOWAS said military action will be the last resort and alternative diplomatic measures are being taken...why protest....

Even the hausas and fulanis with their extended families in Niger are not protesting....and why protesting under the flag of Igbos only, why not include your fellow Nigerians in Niger...

These actions are the type taken by the easterners that make others think of other motifs barring the notion on ground.

A lot of coups has been perpetrated in Nigeria with the citizens in full support and dancing on the streets......after few months, they will start to wail. Full crack-down on the media, no opposition, journalists deaths, no gathering of more than 20, atrocities by the army personnel etc. But y'all are happy that coup took place in Niger and some are praying for same to happen in Nigeria just because of hatred..... go and ask Malians and Guineans what they are facing now....

Hopefully, the Niger junta will come to a form of agreement....but military rule must be eradicated from Niger coz its gonna be one of the worst things to happen to Nigeria especially if this guy is sympathetic to this boko haram ideology.....

To the Russian sympathizers.....

The Russians, West and Chinese are here for their respective interests.....Just that Africans are so pathetic that the whole world is using their lands and destinies as playgrounds.....even Indians are colonizing us in our own land!.....

Wagner mercenaries are being paid in crude oil in Libya and paid in Gold in DRC..... if they come into Niger, they will be paid in Uranium and believe me, they wont let go of these assets.....at least not without a fight..... And from Niger, they will be tampering with our affairs here coz we are more tilted towards the west and these interference might be in form of funding radical sects.....!

One thing i know is that military in Niger must not stay coz i believe its a threat to Nigeria's security......

It's high time this started already.....pathetic and fake news everywhere especially on Twitter......

The person with the strongest claim is even Atiku but u will never hear unnecessary tantrums from his side but these lousy followers of Peter Obi are on another level.....shouting all eyes on the judiciary up and down with their principal not even claiming to have the highest number of votes in his petition....

Fake news everywhere.....and if the government is clamping down on media they will be shouting....
