Lagos leads and the others follow. If you still hate Lagos state government then it shows you're just a saboteur

Chronic bitterness talk

That guy is just an idiot. I hope he was banned for that senseless post. No matter our political differences, we should not turn it to senseless hatred against one another

Even though I'm a born again Christian, all I know is that one day Isreal will be defeated. The atrocities of that tiny country cannot be over looked and I urge my fellow Christian brothers to boycott pilgrimage to Jerusalem henceforth.

Isreal has derailed from the path of God by killing women and children. Let's pray for the innocent Palestinians and Lebanese people been bombed for nothing

You're deceiving yourself with all these lies you just posted.

Corrupt governors are filing suits against Efcc. Kogi state is the leader of the pack and you know what that means.

I like this guy. Very humble and and takes life easy

When you have to fight someone you are afraid of, I think Israel wants to drag the United States into war with Iran, they also want the American people to pay the bill from their pockets.

They surely need US assistance to be able to strike Iran

I will never support oppressors, Iran has the right to defend itself too

Call me whatever you like, but nobody, no country should be allowed to act with so much impunity, we need the balance of power

99 virgins coming up

Falana truly collected money from bobrisky. So he's now telling VDM to bring down all what he posted and then the evidence too. Which way naija? VDM sef would have used the word "allegedly" in his posts until the whole thing is confirmed to save himself from this mess. 500m. Nawa o. Falana dey find serious cashout. Let's see how it ends.

Bobrisky must go back to prison

I trust my people. Anybody wey do anyhow go see anyhow

Damnnn niggar

The truth be say no matter what na road travel sweet pass

Na because of the insecurities.


The enjoyment you derived when using road for travel is second to non

Most of my travel from state to state I use road...even if I have money for flight I still use road

That sweet feeling of waking up in the morning going to the company bus station like God is good motor
The driver go first put gospel song for the beginning of the journey then later secular songs go take over..see gbedu...you go dey see landscape, villages, mountains, rivers and forests

My brother you spoke my mind. Everything!

I'll stay and convert the money to Usdt, at least Tpain policies can't devalue it again. I'll stake some of the Usdt. By the time naira crashes further, the money for gain more weight. Then I'll look for a business to invest in. There are still opportunities in Nigeria despite the setbacks. People are still making money.

UN have been helping terrorists prosper not just in the middle east but in Africa too so I'm not surprised. Hezbollah decided to chook mouth in the Israel-hamas war and this action dragged Lebanon into it thereby putting the lives of people at risk. People who are just trying to survive! Iran with a terrible human rights record towards its citizens especially women is sponsoring extremist groups like houthis, hamas and Hezbollah to unsettle the middle east and some people here are applauding. To those of you supporting this action, I don't think you should complain about Boko Haram, iswap, Ansaru and armed bandits in Nigeria.

Too much weed already clouded his mind that's why

Looks really nice just like the one that moves from Lagos to Ibadan. Even the train stations

Write to CAF naaaa. These people should be dealt with appropriately.

They should direct their energy towards the music videos. Too much nudity there

UN should stop shielding these terrorists

This is Hausa vs Fulani. There is war in Northern Nigeria but many don't know. Those bandits are Fulani

Treadway:
you know it's his agenda/template how? Is that a positive even? That someone from the class of 1999 is still the one and the only one for that matter holding a state to ransom. Only him out of 36 governors.

Enjoy the emperor then.

I hope you sha don't come and tell me Fashola or ambode or sanwoolu were the builders of Lagos in future when they also want to possibly contest for something. You all have already used that ticket for the emperor ooo. Why vote for 'mere tools' in future when we have the balablu brains gangan now?

Why are you like this na? Did I tell you I voted for tinubu? I voted for Obi but I can't say because I have another candidate, I should discredit Tinubu. I have extended family members who have been part of the ACN( action congress of Nigeria) long time before they merged with CPC so I get to know what happens within the party. Even the blue line, Red line metroline trains in Lagos are part of his ideas. Tinubu is a godfather in Lagos so we would only be deceiving ourselves if we say tinubu has no hand in the infrastructural developments. it would even be very difficult for any other party to win gubernatorial elections in Lagos except Tinubu endorses that candidate. That's how tough it is. If you grew up and live in Lagos, you'll understand what I'm talking about. Well... Nigerians have an important choice to make in 2027 and I pray that those people who voted in this man as president would not do it again

Probably nothing

Wetin be this

Treadway:
Tinubu did nothing in terms of infrastructure in the 8 years when HE was governor. Fashola particularly, and the ones after him built infrastructure. You can provide proof if e sure for you.

I hate reading that lie.

I suspect the next thing you'd do is credit him for the successes of Fashola, Ambode and Sanwoolu..

Look... Tinubu is still ruling Lagos with a iron fist and everyone knows that. Those governors are just for show. All what they are doing is part of Tinubu's agenda. Fashola and ambode tried to derail from the plan. Fashola escaped cos he had to later succumb but ambode didn't escape cos he was adamant. I know that tinubu did not start the first template for Lagos. It was jakande but tinubu did a lot too. He couldn't stay as governor of Lagos past 8 yrs so he had to put his boys there to finish the work. I know you don't like tinubu. I don't like him too but give him credit where it's due. Like I said earlier, don't let emotions get the better of you. If you look at the way Lagos is structured, you'll see his blueprints all over even though the governors also played parts. Tinubu goofed by going for presidency. Ruling Lagos and ruling Nigeria ain't the same thing

CluelessOMOnile:
Tinubu was a governor

Obi was a governor

We all saw the works they did

There is absolutely no excuse to justify voting a cocaine la baron

If it was about governorship, Obi didn't really do well. The only outstanding stuff he did was save state money and that is a very good one which means we can separate him from corruption. On the other side, Tinubu did better with infrastructure but the agberoism na wetin I hate so much. Politicians in Nigeria generally dip their hands in dirty stuff. Forget the whole cocaine thing. Tinubu wasn't the only politician involved in cocaine. It was gold then in those days and a lot of them put hand. If Obi chapter is opened ehn, you go open mouth. Atiku himself was part of the saboteurs in the electricity distribution. Politicians would always play politics so I'll advise that you don't allow emotions take over. I voted for Obi in the last election and the only reason I may not vote for him again is if a candidate better than him shows up.

CluelessOMOnile:
Helinues come

Hey there are Yoruba women

Oh I thought Yoruba no Dey feel am.

You and your bands of I***dio ts turned Nigeria political space into a tribal zone

Read the manifesto by your forefathers below in 2015

I mean the God that will k!!l you and those APC ap—es

1. Public declaration of assets and liabilities

2. State and community policing

3. Ban on all government officials from seeking medical care abroad


4. Implementation of the National Gender Policy, including 35% of appointive positions for women

5. Revival of Ajaokuta steel company

6. Generation, transmission and distribution of at least 20,000 MW of electricity within four years and increasing to 50,000 MW with a view to achieving 24/7 uninterrupted power supply within 10 years.

7. Empowerment scheme to employ 740,000 graduates across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory.

Etc

Tribalism is something that cuts across. If Yorubas didn't do it, igbos would do it and if igbos didn't, Hausas would. We need to tackle this from the roots. SW and SE are always voting along ethnic lines while the core North uses religion as a yardstick. Tinubu has become the worst president we've ever had and honestly I have not even seen any candidate who can even lift naija out of this mess. I know you may want to mention Obi but look at it crucially. Are you sure we won't be disappointed if we vote him? He looks like the better candidate but is that convincing enough? Well... At least we can give it a shot. My prayer is that all these people complaining should not go back and vote Tpain again cos if they do, I'll never vote again

Superpack589:
YEBO bros, Yebo.

Tribalism is dismissible in the grand scheme of things. I wish those folks can see that. I didn't want to delve deeper into it because it's a waste of time and it's not a huge part of the problem. But that did not stop me from looking up a few data from the 2023 election even though I don't believe it reflects the will of the people. According to data available, Tinubu was voted by Northerners as well as those in the Niger Delta region and the South West. And even though we've not been in democracy for long, we know that in the past, other tribes have supported candidates not from their regions. Clearly, the majority of Nigerians are smarter and are above tribalism.

As you have rightly put it, the structure that has been put in place does not work anymore. But I want to add that there are few elements who have continued to service that structure to the detriment of the masses. These leaders have to go down with it.

In my opinion, a simple fix will be to cut the head of the snake and let its body rot away. The challenge is that this particular snake has many heads although they can all be targeted at the same time. Unfortunately, we don't have ambitious military officers out there anymore. They seem to have all been bought or perhaps they have become too agreeable.

Castigate me all you want but I think another civil war or military regime may not be too far off anymore, because this same corruption and misuse of office by civilians was what led to the previous one. History always repeats itself when people do not learn from it.

Tribalism is a big problem in Nigeria. Nigeria citizens always vote along ethnic lines and that's why we hardly produce good leaders. If Nigerians vote based on performance, we won't be in this mess. The leaders are up there cos of the masses and you still think the leaders are the main problems? Tinubu knows that Nigerians would always adjust even if Nigeria turns into hellfire and that's why he doesn't listen to anyone. The same people who are complaining about his policies would still vote for him again in 2027. No be juju be that?

crazymommy:
So how was goodluck Jonathan able to make fuel price remain below 160 and dollar remain below 300naira during his era ?? Or those same cabals were not in existence during that time ?? Or nepotism was not in existence by then ?? You people should call a spade a spade , yeah nigeria needs structure..yeah fine..but that does not change the fact that apc government failed..PDP government was never a Saint either but they were still be able give better governance than APC..and tinubu even made it worse......smh

During Jonathan era..my friend processed his UK travelling with less than 4m...now I used more than 38m to process the same travelling...and you people are talking about structure when buhari and tinubu kuku broke the table already..where structure go stand sef..

When it comes to governance , you do not mix tribalism with electing good leaders.. there are many countries in the world with various tribes in their country yet when its time to elect leaders , they keep tribalism one side and come in one voice to vote someone who they feel is competent , they won't vote you simply because you are from their tribe or not, they will vote you simply because they believe you will perform well as a leader, go and even Google the definition of nepotism and see that it still all come down to tribalism ...if I put you in a certain office because you are my brother and not because you are qualified for it , that is nepotism..so now what makes you to be my brother in most cases in nigeria context ?? You are My blood or family or same tribe etc....and if you are my family..we are still of same tribe na..you cannot remove tribalism from nepotism..the tribalism leads to the influence which brings in nepotism.

Pls don't reply those people again. They don't understand Nigeria's problem. They'll always blame politicians instead of them to start from the grassroots

crazymommy:
How did tinubu become president ? , hey ore , you are talking to a yoruba woman right here !!! Omo yoruba ponbele ni mi...but guess what ?? Many yorubas used tribalism to vote in tinubu , I remember telling some of my family members that they should vote for a certain candidate which I did not want to mention, do you know what their response was on phone?? They said in yoruba " omo igbo bawo "..meaning igbo person in what way...meaning that why should they vote that igbo guy.. but guess what everyone is suffering the consequences, now if they go to the market to buy something. , they won't sell it to them at a cheaper price simply because they are yorubas.

There is no way you can hide it , tribalism is the major problem of this country , the religious part is still connected with tribalism in one way or the other ..

Many Nigerians first of all look at tribalism first before now bringing in religion...scale of preference!!tribalism remains number one..the major problem

I do not have problem with anyone who voted tinubu but where I have problem with most of them is that the only reason why they voted him is because he is "yoruba " nothing else..they do not care whether he will perform or not , all they care about is his Tribe.. and that is irritating..assuming you voted him because you believe he will perform well , I won't feel bad..but voting him only because he is yoruba ?? That is a very daft thing to do..

Last week I sent ordinary 900 pounds to a cousin of mine who wants to do wedding in nigeria ?? Guess what they told me , it is the 900 pounds that they used to do the whole wedding...what I consider as small money here in UK, is what they used for a wedding.that is to show you how the naira have died..

Imagine what a cleaner earns here yearly is enough to build a mansion in nigeria..just imagine

You're very correct. Tribalism has eaten deep into the country and it has pushed Nigeria to a point of no return

Superpack589:
Whenever we talk about the situation of Nigeria, some people just bring up the word "japa" as if it is some kind of antidote to solve the problem. Yeah, we should all just run away to greenery pastures and leave our ancestral lands just because we want to live good lives.

And then you're preaching on how good it is to be in distant lands so others can join you over there. So what happens when that place is no longer conducive? What happens when the people there start turning against you after you've imported all your relatives to fight for the scarce resources? You run again to another pleasurable place and continue pursuing pleasure all your life till you die, having lived a meaningless, selfish life that inspires no one.

Sorry to say this but many of Nigerians are so devoid of purpose in life. No ideas, no passion to make change. You just want pleasure, so all you think about is how to run to the nearest paradise. Most of your ancestors were likewise dull, that's why they built their economies on slave trade. It's so shameful that it took the British to forcefully stop the slave trade that they themselves (the British) started centuries earlier. The English people had to enter the open seas to stop it and then made oil palm trade more popular instead. Your ancestors did not want to stop trading humans even when they could do other more lucrative things.

Like you said - many centuries ago, people were forcefully whisked away. Now, you willingly go there to serve as modern slaves, working 3 - 5 jobs daily just to earn money to live well. Like another person rightly said, some even go there without plans and end up stranded and suffer. For God's sake, are our brains wired to be slaves? Are we cursed not to prosper as a race or not to be able to govern ourselves? I don't get it at all.

I talk about what we can do about the deteriorating situation of things in Nigeria, you all kept mute. You heard about japa, and you trooped out, schooling people about how good life is across the seas. Do you not care about your country that's now 64 years old and does not seem to be working?

I don't care where you decide to go to work and make yourself a good life or where you are, but when we talk about the situation of YOUR COUNTRY, bring up ideas that can inspire people to take action and make change. Not just "japa." Wherever you are, be courageous enough to come back to your ancestral land to drive change.

If not you, then who are you waiting for to make Nigeria better? We should all just stop thinking about just running away like cowards.

Regardless, wherever you are, you can drive change in your country. And for you already nursing the idea, take action while you can. If we all contribute our quota, we can see considerable change soon that will make all of you want to come back. Because if e good, una go still troop in massively. Be a part of the solution. Nor dy wait for others to solve the problem make you come enjoy.

If we dy talk about country, chook mouth for the matter abeg. A revolutionary drive can start from anywhere.

The problem is most Nigerians are unpatriotic. It was through patriotism that developed nations got to where they are now. When you go to developed nations, you'll see the citizens trying as much as possible to lift their country. They can even die for their countries but you see Nigerians, the only time most speak against corruption is if it doesn't benefit them. The moment most people here start to eat from corruption, they'll keep quiet and even discourage you from fighting it. If you ask a typical Nigerian on the road whether he can sell Nigeria for a thousand dollars, they'll say yes without thinking twice. It's hard to find a patriotic Nigerian. The funniest thing that happened last year is that a lot of people came out to campaign for Obi saying people should come out to vote and all so that we can change things. The next thing before election, a lot of them japa.

sweetrace:
Tiwa’s video was real and not a sexual depravity. Burna is not arresting people with the video. Speed was not arrested for that. He was arrested for making a video claiming Burna did not deserve his Grammy. That he got the Grammy for having sex with Diddy. That Burna is basically a prostitute. Gay sex in exchange for the Grammy.

Nah he didn't say it like that. Pls don't rephrase. You clearly don't understand why I mentioned tiwa Savage. My own is burna was wrong. He is just an oppressor and this is not his first time of oppressing people. he also pretends to be a philanthropist but he is nothing close to that. He is a crook and he definitely collected microphone from Diddy judging by his actions
