The bold right there is the kind of thinking that got Nigeria into this mess, discouraging critical questions while demanding blind faith in policies that have brought more pain than progress.

We keep hearing, “It takes time” but Nigerians have been waiting for decades . Every administration promises that suffering is temporary, yet for the average Nigerian, hardship has become permanent. We’re not asking for magic; we’re asking for results. Real reforms don’t just inflict pain they offer a path to relief. So far, all we’ve seen is suffering with no end in sight.

And about Tinubu “setting the pace” in Lagos, let’s be honest: Alhaji Lateef Jakande set the real foundation for modern Lagos. He built schools, low-cost housing, roads, and even initiated the metro line project (until it was halted by the military). All of this on a modest budget without oil revenue or inflated IGR with alpha beta kick backs. Other governors also contributed in their own right. Lagos didn’t begin with Tinubu, and pretending otherwise is historical revisionism.

Thank God this current administration haven’t even spent a quarter of a decade and it had taken bold steps toward reform!
In the history of Nigeria democratic settings, no president had ever implemented policies that will favour the poor more than the rich than this government had done.

Regarding Alhaji’ Jakande you made mention of, it’s obvious you people like to shy away from the truth. Inasmuch Jakande did his path, you can never take away the fact Tinubu owns the current masterpiece of increase income generation, world-class transportation system and infrastructural development that we see today.

Nigeria is obviously on the path to greatness with some vital steps taken by this administration and you can’t deny you can’t see .

Maxymilliano:
And police retirees are getting 2.8m as retirement benefits after serving the country for 35 years 😢

Did anyone stop those police officers from becoming a footballer or entertainer? If no, they should just collect their benefits in peace.

That is the harsh reality of the world we live in

DIVINEEVIDENCE:
That mad man's advice eradicated crime from the notorious upper Iweka.

A true leader is interested in performance, nit appearances.

Hmmmmmm
No wonder there is no more baby factories, kidnapping etc in the state!

Ofunaofu:
The words on every Nigerian's lips are: 'When are we going to reap the gains of Tinubu's economic reforms?'

We were told that the pain and anguish caused by the reforms would be temporary. But how long is 'temporary'.....two years, three years, four years, five years, a decade, fifty years, a hundred years, a generation?

@ the bolden!

Sometimes you don’t need to ask some questions. In a country with the level of degeneration as Nigeria, you should know it might take some time for policies like the ones the president is taking to be fully effective but the question should have been, are they the right steps and nearly everyone agrees they are.

Tinubu set the pace in Lagos and now the state is obviously on track to greatness when compared to other states in the country. The president is equally taking some necessary steps to retract the country to where it should be, with time, even all of you people that love to hate him will agree within yourselves that he’d done a great job for the development of the country.

DIVINEEVIDENCE:
How are you even sure he's not the one that suggested it?

His can never make such suggestion except he’d stopped taking advices from the madman!

Tinubu had done a lot of work within the few years he’d been president but it seems he doesn’t like to be hyped or probably the people in charge of his PR are not doing enough!

On a serious note, if someone like Peter Obi or Atiku is the president and either of them did half of what Tinubu had done, their supporters would have bombarded everywhere with their praises.

This man had really set the pace. Like him or hate him, he’s a brilliant president.

She is ready for marriage now!

At 60 something 😜

Is this not the werey man they called a Revd father? So wheelbarrow is now a means of empowerment in 21st century!

Your caption is really confusing. Aside Mass Communication that had such hype probably in the last two decades, none of those other courses had ever been hyped!

That was the lie they used to use about Jagaban, now they have all seen he’s fitter than all of them.

Tinubu had taken giant steps virtually in all branches for economic recovery and sustainability. By the special grace of God, he will get the needed second term for accomplishment of these enormous projects.

givedemwotowoto:
Peter Obi will defeat Tinubu with a wide margin if he becomes the coalition Presidential candidate backed by northern elites like Atiku.

Why is APC afraid to face Peter Obi at the Presidential election? Why is it that you’ve presumably mobilized your rigging machinery, you have even told us that you did, and we say we know, we still want to contest, but you’re still afraid? Why? What are you afraid of?

Even if he brings his supporters from Ghana to add to those from the coalition, Tinubu will still defeat him.
Obi is a packaged average or below average performer that only relies on tribalism, bigotry and sympathy for support.

Samakus:
I agree with her


Meanwhile, happy convocation to my wife. You shall fulfil destiny

You wan make them price your wife too abi why you dey display her picture for this kind place?

Anyway she’s beautiful and congratulations to her!

You are thinking of parting ways with her just because of how she saved your number or for what in particular?

Attention seeker, why can’t you tell Kemi the liberator of the white race to face the business she is employed to do and leave Nigeria alone. She can’t be using our dear country to score cheap political points and expect us not to blast the he.ll out of that her loose mouth!

Can’t you just take the innocent baby to the hospital?

It seems Kwakwa wants to remain a local politician that he seems to be.

Is this the same OAU I was decades ago?

The like of Tony Fash, Lanre Adeleke, late George Iwilade etc fought to avoid situations like this in the future but sadly it’d eventually happened!

I spit one everyone that I part of this nonsense. There are more pressing issues to deal with in our higher institutions of learning than these.

Righteousness2:
Diaspora Minister Shikli in the first response from an Israeli minister to Macron:
Our response to your declaration - the slap you received from Brigitte

Continue to weep as usual. It’s not only France, others will follow suit.

By the time this man spends 8years in office, I’m sure of one thing, Nigeria will be the best in Africa.

You can hate him like shít, that doesn’t negate the fact he had taken giant steps to put the country on the path to glory.

That woMAN that calls herself the wife of Macron truly needs to be checked. Candace wasn’t the first person to say that about him her and she’s obviously not going to be the last.

The day sHE slapped Macron, the speed at which his her hand moved really look like that of a man. And btw, why is it that every one that accused him her of this same allegation in the past had all died? Something seems fishy somewhere.

The pictures are shared by another person called Agulu and it seems the name is becoming synonymous to fraud!

If not, how can someone say Obi is serving food in those pictures. Is he serving empty plates in the first picture or what? I don’t really understand this people.

The two pictures were taken in a typical buffet settings, no one serves anyone in such settings. It’s a serve yourself atmosphere. You guys should start using your brain.

Donald Trump will be like, what is this one saying?

If we say Oba is an oba over every dwellers within his kingdom, then why should we restrict whoever becomes an Oba to just traditional worshipping?

Some things need to be addressed about kingship in Yorubaland if truly we want the position to be productive and effective. Many individuals that can make meaningful impacts in the society as an Oba turned down the opportunity because of its excessive association with traditional worshipping!

An Oba is not an Olu-awo, neither is he an Aborè and whatever order he makes bound on pastors, imams, atheists and traditional worshippers so the position should not be totally considered as one for the traditional worshiping alone.

Using human being as a sacrifice after the death of a king also was/is a tradition until people started thinking otherwise. It’s high time Obaship position is reviewed as well because unlike in those days when everyone shares thesame traditional belief, the beliefs among people are different now and that need to be addressed.

danijesus:
Who is datti exactly working for? Time shall tell

He’s still working for Mr Peter Obi, but that doesn’t stop him from saying the truth.

When is the sleepy mode of this Nairaland going to change the scoreline to 2:1?

I wish we beat them like 10 : 0, I detest it so much whenever these South Africans think they are a force to reckon with in African football.

And Donald Trump stopped funding of researches that scientists embarked on to find solutions to crisis like this! May God give humanity an insight to a permanent solution for this problem!

Ironically, thesame Obi that is complaining refused a fellow governor from entering his state even after prior notice.

Assuming Obi is visiting Abia (with a LP governor) or if Edo is under LP, won’t he notify the governor? The fact some governors tolerated it out of ignorance or for some reasons personally known to them doesn’t mean every governors should take it. Even as a sitting president, you need to inform the governor of the state before visiting such state.

And for those crying Obi is a private citizen bla bla bla…..NO, Obi is not just an ordinary citizen, he’s a former governor and a formidable presidential candidate with a followership of supporters described as the “headless mob”. They can cause trouble based on just anything. Gov. Okpehbolo is just being proactive.

papyjaypaul:
Please quote the section of the constitution.

If you don’t know every governor is the chief security officer in their respective state, then there is no need for further argument!

almarthins:
Opkebolo may as well tell us of edolite to first all inform him before coming to edo state. Who did those hunters informed before entering edoland?

Opkebolo should thread careful, he should not allow himself to be used by some political evil merodachs.

My friend, you are an ordinary citizen and no one knows or cares when you arrive or not. Peter Obi is a former governor and a presidential candidate with some supporters without brain who are always ready to foment trouble. What the governor say is within his constitutional rights.

Why is it so difficult for Obi to do that instead of seeking unnecessary attention?

Gov. Okpebholo as the chief security officer of the state has the right to tell Obi what he said. We know how destructive obidients are online and in person and to avoid unnecessary chaos in the state, Mr Obi should inform the governor so that appropriate security measures will be implemented before his arrival.

Only God knows how many men had stretched the ponmo before she eventually settled with that poor guy!

Imagine her on a date with a man yet had the time to accommodate another man.
