RenaissanceGuy:
What does protest about governorship election tribunal got to do with Niger Rep??

You don't need to quote him. We have many of them like that who comment as if their brain is malfunctioning.

Throwback:
Even as a staunch Tinubu supporter, I already saw the signs of the nonchalance of his Presidency towards nominating his Ministers within the 1month "serious government" standard that his own close Advisers had promised.

I shamefully watched as Dele Alake came out at 1month to swallow his own vomit and claim that the Tinubu Presidency had 60days by law, so until then the Presidency was still on track.

I then watched as the Tinubu Presidency struggled to meet the 60days deadline set by the notorious nomination latecomer, Buhari, by releasing a partial nomination.

Now this terrible shame of showing that the Presidency remains undecided over how to both man and name the ministries.

This consistent failure over this simple matter is a disgrace and threat to renewed hope.

We have Buhari to now thank for limiting the President and the Governors to 2months, else many would have surpassed the shameful standard of 6months set by Buhari himself.

I hope the jokers in the Presidency can learn from this terrible folly.

Going forward, I hope the Tinubu Presidency would learn from its own failure like Buhari, and set the target to 1month, since that is the serious government standard they espoused at the beginning.

And you think forming Cabinet is realistic within a month. You need to balance and put into consideration a lot of factors-political, religion, social and economic. If you quickly assemble within a month and people applaud you, when they eventually fail, the same people will castigate you that you did not take your time to assemble competent people.

mrvitalis:
Atiku should back obi ans Kwankwaso in 2027 if supreme Court fails to do the right thing

With obi agreeing to do one term As president

I think this would work very well

Why should Obi do one term as president? Is it to get the support of the north?

Okwyjesus:
Honestly and he is very vindictive. But l know Tinubu will cage him politically

Elrufai should go and chill. Buhari treated Tinubu same way during his tenure and Tinubu never took it personal despite people saying Buhari used and trashed him. He waited patiently and contested for the presidential primaries which he eventually won.

favor914:
It absolutely reeks of hypocrisy that Gringory Obi is going around talking about how to fix Nigeria, but his track record shows that he is only interested in his own success and not the success of others.

Sir Tntsi, how can Pandora Pete, as a former Governor and Chairman of a bank, and a multinational corporation, not have people you mentored following you around? None of his predecessors or successor governors of Anambra State be it Apga or pdp included, We know people in his cadre who still have those who worked with them while they were governors, ie Bola Ahmed Tinubu, but in his case.

None of his commissioners has been heard of, or seen in his team or around? Perhaps, after Peter Obi, there will not be another person who represents the values he claims, That is not a good leadership example.

Please I await your reply, Penguin2 or Racoon could help you in explaining

Because he lacks the skills to groom followers.

You see them again. Most of their so called successful businesses are financed through drug trafficking. You see them buying houses and chest beating, meanwhile na drugs dem deh carry. Any country that arrest them for drug trafficking should do the needful on them.

Parachoko:
Absolute Majority Of Nigerians choose The Jargaban Borgu, that's why he's presently ruling over Nigeria and he's also the Chairman of ECOWAS.

Jargaban will rule till 2031 because Absolute Majority Of Nigerians are behind him.


Absolute Majority Of Nigerians have choosen to suffer Today and Enjoy Tomorrow.

Why are you even replying him? You don't need to descend so low to his level of poor reasoning and judgement.

Ofunaofu:
A serious government should have put all these things on ground and also ensured that at least one refinery is working at full capacity before thinking of removing subsidy on petrol

So the subsidy thieves should continue to defraud government for the next one year or you think the refineries will start working in 6months time.

DropsMic:
The only region in the entire western africa that suffers from Selective amnesia… When their brother was president they totally forgot to mention anything about the rising level of insecurity across their geopolitical zone, ma now them dey find their voices. I wonder what changed.

They found their voice now that power changed hands.

LagosFirstSon:
How did someone who lost in Lagos , Osun , Kano , FCT Abuja, helped by Wike to rig rivers state be declared winner eve with all the damning evidences of malpractices ?

Tinubu lost in all his strongholds including in alausa where the Lagos governor's office is sitted.

INEC chairman should be in jail and Tinubu in prison for rigging .

His loss is Lagos, Osun, and Kano is by what margin? The loss was even a protest vote against Buhari's misrule and and the cash crisis Emefiele caused. Despite that, Tinubu still had to withstand those threats and challenges and came out victorious.

Ogene001:
Exactly what we have been telling Ebola supporters. The junta can only fix any year for new election and Bazoum will not contest. All international pressure should be geared towards making the junta bring election date closer.

Can you take such treatment if you are in the position of Bazoum?. A whole country elected you and some military guys hijacked your govt because they have guns. Those military guys have no respect for the country's constitution and are only after their own selfish interest.

MichaelSokoto:
not their fault, it's Jez because of ongoing PEPT court case & dat Obi pleaded wit d masses not to take laws into their hands!

u Jez woke up, no consultation, no enquiry, no thinking, u ended fuel subsidy wit no remorse...

only now is d imposter is getting ideas from external mediators on how to cushion d disaster he placed on d nation ..

Kai!

See your mouth. Obi pleaded with the masses not to take law into their hands. Make him go instigate the masses and see how he will spend years in prison for treason.

lailo:
Lol
Out of all the tens of tribes we have in Nigeria, it is only the igbos who are pitching the north against the yorubas with their comment. ECOWAS wants to return a military-overthrown democratically elected government in Niger, Igbos turned it to Yorubas want to begin war with hausa/Fulani. Demented set of people. Funny enough only them saying this out of all the hundred of tribes we have in Nigeria bcs Obi lost an election.

They have enjoyed their time during Jonathan's regime, now they are crying 😭.

TinubuThief:


Ebola Tinubu on the beat.

Play me Them Mama for zombies by Timaya ft Tinubuthief .

Why don't you call this one propaganda?

sotall:

Please declare in Kwara state too.

That's where it matters.

Yoruba traditional worshippers in Kwara deserves to celebrate Isese day too.

If they can approach the court to rule on rhis case, the traditionalist will win and there's the Emir can do once the court pronounce judgment.

wirinet:
The banks are the main problem. Let me give you one info you will not get elsewhere - the banks make most of their profits from round tripping. I knew someone that was an aid to Tony Elumelu when he was was at Standard Trust Bank. He revealed to me Tony himself and Standard Trust Bank were raking in billions from buying from CBN and selling through BDCs to ordinary citizens. The situation remained the same or even worse under Emefiele.

Your assertion may be true. Banks may be colluding with BDC to frustrate the system.

Rich4god:
This is the best thing. There is no need having two different exchange rate. No matter what CBN does, as long as the average man can go to BDC and purchase dollar, there will always be disparity between official rate and black market.

What CBN need to do is to ensure that dollar is not in the hands of the citizens. Any one that needs dollar for importation, school or health should go and bank and bank will make the payment for them. All the local schools and organisations that transact in dollars should be discouraged. Some wealthy individuals will just use naira to buy dollars only to pile it up in their dorm accts. All these are part of what is making price of dollar skyrocket at the black market.

If CBN wants to achieve a little stability, they should starve the BDCs of dollar so that the average citizens cannot easily access it.

You have a point but it's difficult to implement. Everyone cannot go to bank to get dollars. Do banks even have sufficient forex to meet the demand of the people? Even in advanced countries, BDC exist but our import dependent economy is our major problem.

telleyway:
Creating artificial problem and claiming to come up with a solution is always the most stupid APC strategy. When the Chicago accountant and that Yoruba acting CBN governor in a bid to please their masters announced floating naira and removal of BDC, you all hailed it to high heavens.
Now that the policy failed and they're trying to hide their shame instead of apologizing to Nigerians, you are here doing your paid job.

Are you in tune with reality at all? Is it the present government that banned BDC from forex market?

Greystone:
It’s a good move by CBN.
The +2.5% allows for a decent profit margin and the daily, weekly, monthly and yearly reports force transparency from the BDCs. This will increase forex flow and help protect the Naira from the speculative and destructive forex trading we’ve witnessed.
The excess liquidity in the parallel market has been our biggest problem.

Excess liquidity in the parallel market or you mean shortage of forex in the parallel market?

9jahotblog:
Adeleke is in serious trouble for bringing the clueless consultants that doesn’t know how to audit the staffs of Osun State and the academic staffs in Osun State. I won’t talk much here. A nepotistic man will never succeed in government. Adeleke’s government has bound to fail woefully beyond repair. 2026 is very far, the good people of Osun State will who they want in 2026 poll. Osun State is a significant State in Yoruba Land that you don’t toiled with the people and their dealings too.

Please talk with decorum and like someone with a reasoning ability. Even if you are an APC apologist, it's not everytime you criticize an opposition party especially if they are trying to implement a good initiative. How did you come to the conclusion that the consultant is incompetent? Will you recommend another consultant for the state govt? If no, then your lacks objectivity.

seunmsg:
You want conviction between May 29 and today right? As in, Tinubu should do thorough investigation, prosecution and get criminal conviction in less than 100 days, right? Do you guys think things through before posting nonsense on social media?

Peter Obi that started is manhood case since 25th February, has he secured victory? I hope you can see how silly and empty you sound? 🤦‍♀️

You don't even have mercy for the guy.

Helpfromabove1:
Effort in futility

U want to go and report police to a police in a police station, ok continue and you think you get out of the station safe and sound

Complain must not necessarily be physical one. You can lodge your complain via social media platform and tag the complaint unit of the police.

Wizardslayer:
This man is truly a clueless man.

By the time he's done with Nigeria, Somalia Will be like a paradise to the people of sadwest.

There's no initiative they will bring that will satisfy you people. Some of you don't even want him to succeed because of the hatred.

Theyoungmaster:
Baba error and trial method wants to solve a complex equation.


Back then in primary and secondary school, there were steps to take in order to derive the "almighty formula". Some substitution here, some elimination there. You never get to the final formula by error and trial method.



This I have seen

You think leadership is easy. Just try and become the MD of a commercial Bank and see deliverables to be achieved. You have to work round the clock to justify that position. Honestly, it's easy to criticize but when you get there, you'll understand that uneasy lies the head that wears the crown.

NOwazobia:
Fully conquered.


I envy the Fulanis doggedness.


Action speaks louder than just shouting & screaming. 🤤

You envy their doggedness but if actually they are in the majority, why can't they produce a Fulani governor in kwara state? Their ruling is only limited to Ilorin alone and not other towns in kwara state.

Okoroawusa:
Since he is a lawyer to a Labour Party governor then this thread won't go far

Logical conclusion.

festacman:
Godwin Emefiele trusted mortals in power and forgot that power is, in fact, ephemeral. He trusted human beings and forgot that humans are fickle and non-dependable.

He trusted Buhari as president. He visited him at short notice at the Villa and in Daura. They did 'high five' and posed for pictures smiling like playground mates. Emefiele didn't mind stepping on people's back to make Buhari happy. Targeting the hawks that Buhari despised, he changed the colours of Naira notes but the new notes are nowhere to be seen. When the Finance Minister kicked, Buhari defended him. He made banks broke the agelong culture of customers getting back their money on demand. Innocent people suffered and businesses floundered. Unfortunately, the same Buhari whom he loved to impress didn't seem to stand up for him when 'the shylock' came calling for a pound of his flesh.

Emefiele kowtowed before Northern oligarchs as though his life depended on that. Yes, they made sure his job was secured and it was but he served them like a slave. He flouted regulations and conventions to be in their good book. Unfortunately, the same oligarchs took cover in protection of their interests when the hawk came for the chick.

Worthy of note is that Emefiele refused to wise up when Buhari didn't stop DSS from attempting to arrest him when he was the president. That was a red flag that foretold his current situation but he refused to take notice. Perhaps he was too power-intoxicated or may be he was simply trapped in the corridors of power.

Used and dumped like a piece of trash at a lonely crossroad and with the people treating him like a smelly leper, Emefiele is surrounded by 'hyenas' warming up to devour him like a piece of soft flesh. Looking pale and hopeless, only God can save him from drowning in sorrows of being disappointed by the humans he trusted.

Now he will understand what it means to have freedom.

Taylor90:
You call this disgrace?

Same you will praise Buhari but condemn Emefelie

You’re condemning smoke and neglecting the fire itself

Buhari who’s the main architect dey chill for London while Tinubu is dragging a mere apprentice because Emefiele didn’t let Tinubu use old currency for vote buying

If I talk now they’ll call me wailer

Make i mind my business

So was it new currency that made Tinubu to win or strategic planning, alignment and collaboration with political heavyweight? Emefiele is also guilty and was only serving his personal interest to have introduced the currency redesign because we also saw many of his branded campaign vehicles in the build up to APC primaries.

Sex 3 times a week is on the high side bro. Have you tried to check your cheeks to know if both sides are getting flattened. Even if you check your weight, I'm sure you're loosing it drastically. You're loosing energy due to constant sex and I'm surely if you engage your fellow man in a fisticuffs, he will floor you easily because you're wasting your energy on sex.

A whole former CBN governor disgraced like this.... Truly, nothing last forever.

Only exception to Neymar's statement was when he said Ronaldo is the greatest of all time, this made me laugh. How could Ronaldo be the greatest of all time when he doesn't have any world cup added to his silverwares. Messi and Ronaldo are not on the same level jare.

TeeAL:
I would advice Tinubu not to go into war with Niger but it's obvious that he isn't skilled at international diplomacy and so are his advisers .

Okay, you that has skill in international diplomacy, what advise or strategy would you adopt to restore democracy back to Niger republic.
