poverty reduces religiosity.
paying tax makes people to hold Thier government responsibility just as we see in Western world. they pay tax heavily and when they felt unsatisfied with any leader, they take it up with that person.
Our problem still lies heavily on poverty. we are on survival of the fittest mode which is natural whenever resources are limited.

Kobojunkie:
I disagree! Nigeria's problem is hinged on the fact that its constitution was created for its failure from the beginning. When you have two different sets of laws for people, you create a condition for failure. Let me provide you with an example. 😒

A couple of years ago, Orji Kalu was arrested and prosecuted. He was expected to spend many years of his life in jail. But suddenly, he came back wearing Islamic garb, claiming he had turned to Islam. And you know what happened right after that? The cases against him simply disappeared, and he was rewarded with a position in government. Why do you think that happened? It had everything to do with Sharia Law. Under Sharia Law, what Orji Kalu's crimes against kafirs(an Arabic term meaning "disbeliever" or "infidel," referring to someone who rejects Allah's authority or Islamic teachings) are not criminal at all. 😒

---

Here are a couple of books from Islamic Scholars to read to understand Sharia from the fairy tales(Takiyah-driven) that have become commonplace even in Nigeria, among non-Islamics. 😒
1. The Life of Mohammed (aka Sirah Rasullulah) by Ibn Ishaq
2. History of AL-Tabari(History of the Prophets and Kings) by Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari
3. Reliance of the Traveller by Ahmad ibn Naqib al-Misri
4. Muqaddimah by Ibn Khaldun
5. Tahrir al-Wasilah by Ruhollah Khomeini
6. Islamic Government: Governance of the Jurist (also known as Velayat-e Faqih) by Ayatollah Ruhollah Imam Khomeini

You can read this up for yourself. 😒

what was Anambra money doing in Fidelity bank if he's not a thief, come on

Dalohad:
You wey you like 'struggle' we don see how you loot Rivers to stupor, kill voters for Tinubu during 2023 elections for your ambitions. Your boys wey you dey handpick give tickets, dem dey contest primaries?

Anyway, dem go fail this time..People don ready for your rigging strategy of bribe-or-kill.

Peter Obi no be thief like you wey become overnight billionaire after Governorhip. During Senate screening when GEJ made you Minister of State for education, you claimed only N145,000 was found in your account by EFCC..Today na stolen billions dey your account.

Wike, which business you dey do before you enter Rivers politics? You get lawfirm? Abi you get hire-purchase Okada wey dey remit money give you?

Which 'food is ready' pass to chop Rivers people money since 1999 till day, as agbero chairman, LGA chairman, Governor and Minister?

Fashola get second address, after politics he has gone back to his profession. Peter Obi left Governor's house and went back to his business..

Wike where is your second address? Where is your shop or law firm located?

Without politics and stolen money, how you for take see food chop for this country?

lol, you want to justify why he bought cards for kings but you condemned the same act when other politicians did it

helinues:
Only if you have a clue about the story behind the SUV bought for over 100 kings, you won't be saying all this about Obi

with outspoken Peter Obi, that had trust issue, okay, we should be deceiving ourselves

Penguin2:
The truth is that you can’t have somebody as formidable as Kwankwaso and you will render him as useless as Shettima currently is in Tinubu government.

So, the north knows they will be getting a better deal with Kwankwaso as Vice President than the disaster they currently have in Shettima and his Balablu.

they know politics more than Tinubu.they can even teach him politics
Governors know the problems of Nigeria and they know Atiku or Obi won't solve the problems. they still refer him. some of you are saying governors don't have influence over their subjects. a very myopic reason. even a local government chairman can influence his people to vote for a particular candidate. you have been influenced to buy a brand you never intended to buy by an Igbo man before

Burob:
A very clueless & vague minded assertion, very sure that Kanwulia scripted it on your behalf?

and you think people will believe this your report. it's only religious people that will, what about the others

SyrusdeHansome:
Don't worry, when you have the experience first hand you'll know there's nothing like sleep paralysis. Science think everything can be explained on the basis of observation and theory. I've seen someone confess of how he was fun of pressing pple in their sleep and as someone that use to have the experience almost every night nobody can ever tell me I was experiencing sleep paralysis.

some people are very insensitive and unreasonable. why will someone make such tweet, Oyo didn't vote for Tinubu to start with. I pray Peter Obi wins, we will see if Nigeria will turn Dubai overnight m it seems the Igbos especially are making it look Peter Obi is Messiah

is it today insecurity started. security has improved in the East compare to previous years

Omayie:
Can you think rationally?

How safe would those roads be to ply when there is heightened insecurity. Hasn’t it occurred to you that people feel so unsafe to travel, transport goods and make economic use of roads because of the same insecurity.
Why invest such funds on infrastructure when insecurity has eaten up the lives of thousands of people.
Brother this isn’t about party or political support. It’s about Nigerians. Try to day think properly

only you replied with sense, we want to compare what IBB borrowed in Naira to what Obasanjo borrowed, for us to properly make logical sense, we must find a common ground for comparison, that's comparing the money in dollars. Those money were borrowed in dollar.
that's why I said Tinubu time as the president of Nigeria is way better than others. I can now see the effect of frequent strike in our institution on the quality of graduates we are producing Poor thinkers without sense. shey 4 years program most of the time will end in 6 years where most of the students would have lost interest in Thier study, tell me how quality graduate will be produced.

oyebanji:
This is being clever by half. What is the dollar value of the loans for the 2 periods?
To put this in context, under Buhari, Naira to USD was averagely N320 while under Tinubu its averagle N1400. At Buharis N75trn and Tinubu's N65trn, loans under Burai is $234bn while same under Tinubu is $46bn.

chai, Nigeria youths are not intelligent at all, no critical thinkers. look at what we are dragging for several hours. for our information, the same old men will rule us for a long time because we don't have the tenacity and capacity to handle leadership.
Tinubu is a thief, dubious and curry but definitely smarter than most of the youth in Nigeria. he planned ahead and put ensure no stone is left unturned.
he started by introducing LG autonomy, so that even LG chairmen will be encouraged to mobilize Thier people to vote. it was difficult for him but he Scape through. he tested his experiment through the primary.
2. He already knows human are not rational as we think, they are gullibles, ejsy People were criticizing the same Peter Obi when he was governor but today, most of the same people consider him as Messiah. even Buhari was treated the same way.
So, to influence people to vote even against Thier wish won't be difficult. he set up enough footsoldiers to do the job even without rigging. Rigging is not necessary to win elections in Nigeria, just have enough footsoldiers that will brand you in a good light. Otoge was used to end Saraki dynasty in Kwara state. Edo no be Lagos was used by Obasiki to win his second term. those slang just got into the heart of the people, without much thought, they were bewitched to vote for the initiator.
very simple, even obi had to use religion sentiment to get votes from Christians especially in the north central

I believe Obi won't go to the election with this your mindset. He won't assume the figure is fake hence he's defeated.
it's stupidity to underestimate your opponents in a competition. even Tinubu doesn't underestimate his opponents despite that he's the president

evanpass:
Inflicted figure,buy crowd doing campaign come manipulate and inflict election results.

they don't have money

helinues:
What's taking the state governors eternity to start generating their own electricity by partnering with investors

hmm we are not paying tax in Nigeria at all.
Let assume there's no oil, how will 211B serve 20 million people in Lagos
211B naira , 150million dollar effectively serve Lagos state
I see why we don't have quality road, schools and other human development index in Nigeria. we are not a serious country, we don't want to do anything Texas budget is 169 billion dollar.
Lagos is generating $150m in a month, in a year around around $2b, Lagos state 2026 budget is $2.94 b
tell me how Lagos will match up Texas
we want our country to be like Texas and we are not thinking on how to generate money to fund a budget like Texas. if Lagos can have a budget of 60 billion dollar in 10 years, we will be surprised how Lagos will look like

Parachoko:
I dey talk about the money from VAT

States like Lagos, Oyo, Rivers should have reject the sharing formula

where are the indigenous Jew?
The people killed by Hitler during world war 2 are what?
before 1948, are there reports that Jew were residing in Europe?
If there are no Jew again since you claimed the self claimed Jew are no Jew, are you not invalidating the bible and Qur'an, since those 2 books never said there will be a time that no Jew will exist.
In History as recorded in the Bible, the Jew had once gone on exiles
Going on exile are not new.
when a group of people went on exile like that, there are possibilities of loosing the real traits and being left with Hybrid.
some Nigerians that married White usually give birth to white babies.
if that continues over a long period of time, one may lose the black colour skin traits.
that technique are used in genetic science to develop new breed.
subconsciously the same thing can play out in human too
Zionist story could only be a circumstance for the Jew to return home
do you know how the word Jew came to being, the children of Isreal that returned from exile where separated, the undiluted children of Isreal were called Jew while the diluted ones are Samaritans

Kushites:
USE YOUR BRAIN.

HOW CAN EUROPEANS FROM AUSTRIA, GERMANY, UKRAINE, POLAND, HUNGARY, SERBIA, RUSSIA, AND CROATIA BE ''ISRAEL''?.... ''JEWS''?

WERE EUROPEANS LIVING IN THE HOT DESERT OF THE MIDDLE EAST 3,000 YEARS AGO?

YOU PEOPLE ARE SO IGNORANT, IT'S TRAGIC.

lol, even if Other party appointments inec chairman, the president can still buy him.is it not in Nigeria again? giving thechskr offers that he can not avoid is enough to buy him

Brendaniel:
Tinubu has turned INEC to a bandit organization

The INEC chairman should honorably resign, the INEC chairman should not be appointed by the president.

Every political party should pick a candidate they want for INEC chairman and all the parties should vote who they want among them till there is a winner for the appointment to take place.

Hmm, we still didn't understand the root of Nigeria problem.
even if Angels comes down to rule, there won't be much different. Once the foundation of a house is bad, no matter the quality of the building erect on it, it will collapse. Nigeria problem is embedded in the anti people and corruption enhancer constitution

Jacoban20:
Obi is coming.

Tinubu is going.

Nigeria is bouncing back

Is there a time that America citizens support war?
Abeg, try to read between the lines. US has been fighting war long time ago

Kobicove:
See one of them here!

Most Americans have voiced their displeasure about this war but ignorant Nigeria who don't have up to 1 million to their name are so exited about the war which is making petrol more expensive and indirectly taking money away from their pockets.

It is because of this senseless war that Trump started that there is a disruption in the supply chain of the energy industry to the extent that some international airlines are cancelling flights and scaling back operations.

Don't worry, if the global economy goes into recession as a result you sef wey dey Nigeria go feel am.

I dey pity you!

and he gave Iran conditions which Iran is being forced to meet.
he talks a lot because they have gadgets that could melt the heart of any nation

mhmsadyq:
After all his noises and chest beating, he still have to negotiate with the terrorist regime.

Trump's tail is between his legs!

whats your proof?
If US wants to stop ship from going in and out of Iran, they can do it. they have th arsenal to do it.

mynd1:
Let US propaganda they deceive you.... For your information, many ships left Iranian ports and nothing stops them.

Hmm, You are also believing the same thing as far as you support Iran. Iran was never a Muslim country but islam was forced on them Egypt too were not originally Ahab but today they are. if you are condemning Isreali action which I think you raised a valid point, you should do something to Ahab countries too

KobolanderSegun:
The reason why Turkey want to Join us because everyone saw how Germany started in 1938. Conquest mentality never ends. Look at Nigeria and terrorism only a mumu thinks you can pay a terrorist off.

A terrorists goal is control of the land, to turn people into slaves and to rape women, if you give them money they just buy arms to continue

The Germans have shown the world clearly that you never allow people who claim land and fight wars to flourish.

If you think a land grabber and a killer is your friend or has a sense of morality just wait till when they come for you.

Jesus said " By their fruits you shall know them ". It is not from the Bible or from history you judge people, it is not by the name they call themselves or by what people call them. Just look at people's actions and you will see them very clearly.

If God told you he was going to give you your brothers shirt do you have a right to take his shirt without his permission ? If it was truly God that same God will tell him to give it to him.

It's amazing how the 10 Commandments say Do not Covert your neighbors house, wife and anything your neighbors own but people are using God to covert land and kill for land. Does the Bible not say "thou shalt not kill ? "

It's Amazing how Christians disregard the teaching of peace of Jesus Christ but embrace the actions of Moses.

Who is the Messiah. Jesus or Moses.

Alot of the supporters of Genocide do it because they have been brain washed to believe in Superiority and deem themselves as inferior

You see them giving their alliegence to America and Israel as life America and Israel are ordained by God to save the world.
God's Chosen people where not Ordained to Save the World.
Noah who saved the World was not a Jew
Enoch who went to heaven was not a Jew

Religion did not start with Abraham, it started with Adam, Adam and Eve were not Jews.

When people have a broader view of the Bible they read they will see that God has no favorites and His Word's are his favorites.

Jesus Christ never spoke of any Promised land neither did he preach about it. But the Nigerian Christians believe in a promised land their savior never spoke upon.

Christian Fanatism and Fundamentalism is very alive and well. I will not even call it Christian it's more about Racial and Religious Superiority that Nigerian Christians believe in.

This is what happens when people worship people based on their skin color not looking on wether their deeds are good and bad.

A group of Nigerian private University school students went to badagry in 2018 for an excursion and they saw the slavery chains.

Some of them said " I wish the Europeans will come back and take us as slaves so that I can Japa for free "
That is the typical mindset of the African.

You just invalidated both the bible and Quaran. if you are a Muslim and you typed this, You just called Quaran a book of lie. Anything can be on the internet, you pick what you want to hear.
Sometime ago, it was on the internet that Netanyahu is died and many people believed it. 100 years to come, some people will still believe it

HacheNoire:

---

If you want to go that route, let’s use Benjamin Netanyahu has a case study. I think he is a good fitran !

Based on your OWN sense of identification. Just like you could pick an African, Asian, or European. His he from the Middle East?

If you have time to answer my question, can you do a little research about Benjamin Netanyahu. I mean basic research?

Let me give you another hint! Hebrew was dead for thousands of years, and only pieces of scriptural parts were available to mankind.

The current Hebrew they claim to speak was developed by a Russian. The internet is available to you to find out……

you don't seem to understand things
many countries especially in Europe didn't support US and Israel in this war. it's logical for US and Israel to back down

Lukuluku69:
You are the one not thinking!

Do you think America and Israel will accept or allow for a Ceasefire when they know that Iran has been considerably weakened? Do you think so (that is if you thinking at all)

In Israel today, The PM is being goaded for accepting a Ceasefire when their objectives going into the war have not been met.

Think.....

It is free

They don't have a chance, I thought they have a chance till they used the civilians to form a chain to protect thier infrastructure.
If the president of America has been Bibi, do you think Isreal wont strike them? Do you know how many lives of civilians that would die that day.
we should stop analysing war with emotions.
we should think about what could make Iran to use civilians? that's not boldness, that's recklessness. Using your civilians as shelter.
They really tried to stand US and Israeli forces for 40 days, they showed resilience but they don't have a chance to stand US and Israeli at the same time
Thier major weakness is, they don't have strong defence system to intercept missiles from Isreal and US. isreali saw the weakness that's why Isreal kept on killing Thier officials and destroying thier infrastructure because nothing is protecting those things.
Do you know how many missiles Iran fired at Isreal and how many destruction they could cause.

Lukuluku69:
You listen to too much America propaganda.

Iran doesn't stand a chance?

Iran withstood your Israel for 12 days last year and repeatedly call on the lap dog America to join the war.

Fast forward to now,negotiations was on going and your America attacked Iran with Israel, and for about 40 days, Iran withstood the might of America and Israel and you are saying Iran doesn't stand a chance?

You got jokes 🤣 😂 😒

the 5000 buildings destroyed in Israel belong to who? Civilians of course.
we should stop saying Israel killed civilians, that's why war is bad. civilians are the first victims of war
you think the damage done to Iran is 10000 buildings?
US and Israeli stroke Iran for 40 days without stopping, the residents that will be destroyed in Iran will be close to 100000 houses.
War is bad, it's good to avoid it.

God1000:
Israel is only good at bombing innocent and defenseless civilians, why didn't they try it with Iran for more than one month of intense fighting

some people actually abuse the privilege of chewing canes especially labourers. some cut the canes indiscriminately, like firewood and take them out of the company to sell them. most of the workers will cut like 10-15 sticks and chew in one sitting

Lithiumite:
Nah the be warned for the last time dey crack me up nah so all the staff sef go dey laugh.....I know of a company like Guinness where you are allowed to drink as much as you want but don't get drunk and only in the cafeteria or staff lounge.

I disagree with that, even if they produce more crude oil than this, it won't affect common man.
if the little we are producing is managed maximally, it will affect the common man

nairalanda1:
Let's be honest, common man cannot feel impact of crude oil, because Nigeria is not producing, and has never produced the amount of crude that we need to give everybody a good life.

(Note that I did not say that there is no corruption or that government is good, and that tinubu na good leader, so don't go there).

Income from crude is not even enough to provide for one to three states. And yet, that's where 80% of our income comes from.

Even if Nigeria goes up to 10million bpd , it won't improve our life much

The thing that sane nations with saner climes have is a diversified industrial economy that works and a massive tax system that pays into the welfare system, among other things. Countries that rely only on oil, like Saudi and Bahrain and Qatar, can afford to do so because their populations are tiny, and they run the risk of becoming broke if oil prices crash.

Where all your governments have been failing is that they have not developed a diversified industrial exporting economy for Nigeria. Especially APC which promised that in 2015, and has not effing delivered, which is why tinubu is weak

Instead, everyone has been following Awo's lead. Sell raw materials and share money, which leads to a situation where the money would never be enough and where stealing happens at the highest level because the closer one is to where the sharing happens is wheere stealing happens.

And even if there is no stealing, oil revenue, before we start talking about allocating money, is not up to 150 billion dollars...and most of the time it is below 100 dollars. Nigeria needs something like at least 500 billion dollars revenue for budget issues and so forth.

But since governments no dey wan make us like serious nations, here we are.

but he has the power to do it.
it's two different things, having the power to do something and not doing it and not having the power at all.
He told Iran to accept a deal for negotiation which Iran accepted

mynd1:
God bless Iran..... We told you guys earlier that Trump will do no shit

I don't think so, remember, Iran has advantage over Isreal, more landmass and population.
Isreal cant sleep with Thier 2 eyes close because Iran is their sworn enemy, a country that frequently threatened to wipe out Isreal from the map can not be taken for granted

BodyCount:
Lol
MUMU
But they're always begging USA to help and help them bomb.
And also always begging usa and other to help them defend against them.
Keep fooling yourself.

they have reduced Iran launching capability, Iran are only focusing on Isreal now

buygala:
Those neighbouring nations donated themselves as bases from which the US can strike Iran, thereby making them legitimate targets


As it stands, those manafiki Gulf States will bear the full brunt of Iran's vengeance on the US and Israel, since they were silly enough to allow themselves to be used as a launching pad by a rogue nation whose homeland is safely across a expanse of ocean...

By the time this war ends, lessons will be learnt, especially by those Gulf States.
