People are going to Nigeria for medical services.
A friend just flew to Nigeria for dental services from the US.
He paid less than 100k for the same service that they were asking for 2k dollars.

If you go to Emergency dept in the US, that's when you will understand the situation.
Unless you are bleeding or dying from heart attack, you will be at the wailing area from night till morning.
Many times, people just get upset and leave. I have done that before.

APC have almost all the state in Nigeria, and party loyalist are saying this man is popular that he will win with a large slide, now why are they afraid to pass electronic voting in Electoral Law. I always said it PBAT try to do free and Fair Election in Nigeria of today he will loss gallantly. Let him try and signed it into law, they knows PBAT will loss

The solution, let all the oppositions party lobby Trump, and let him just post it on Twitter that without e-transmission of voting the election will not be accepted. You will see they will pass it into law immediately.

Macphenson:
Weak laws breed weak institutions and weak institutions bread strong criminals.
Akpabio just weakened the INEC..
They signed 30 governors and counting, yet they are afraid of free fair and credible elections. If electronic transmission of results is made mandatory by law, Tinubu will be beaten blue black before 12 no9n on election day.

xmasgift:
Tinubu isn't weak. Nigeria has some saboteurs as citizens who are bent on making sure the nation fails.

Tenses:
We'll not forget. They chose to stand with the oppressor of the people but when power eventually returns to the people we shall remind them.

epainos:
This VDM go get pros writing his scripts, or perhaps he has learned it himself. He is just giving Naija content they want back to back. He writes his stories with suspense, love, anger, etc..Guy just dey touch the souls of lay about Nigerians. On top, guy made himself accountable for donations he got. Something he knows is always missing from the Nigerian DNA. He is going very far as long as he doesn't die young.

Libations are very real

Thedon22:

ericmor:
That has been APC strategy right from start. APC infrastructure party, PDP na do it anyhow. No matter how bad an APC government is, u will still see them constructing roads

LagosOrigin:
Trump sets the rules and Nigerian government comply.

RaptorX:
She went all the way to the US to attend the national prayer breakfast which normally is a local Washington DC event, even governors in the US don't leave their state to attend, but she flew all the way from Nigeria to DC to attend.

mrvitalis:
175 people died in Kwara see what you are posting?

Brendaniel:
As at 1930 Lagos was already the capital...

the question you should be asking is: Was this project not a federal funded project?

Brendaniel:
Question: Was it built by the FG or not?

Brendaniel:
And it was developed and still built by the federal government using mostly oil money, just look at the area and ask yourself what was developed there before the FG started pumping money into the place, the same Ikeja has Army cantoment, Airforce base, Muritala Aiport, Ikeja(GRA) and so on all built by the federal government.

Has any state in Nigeria received quarter of the investment the FG has invested in Lagos?, Third mainland alone does not even have estimate because of how costly it was, yet they just kept on pouring into it just to complete it for Lagos, yet some of you will come out and start doing yeye comparison and giving glory Tinubu.

nairalanda1:
Before anyone comes and starts saying the good old days

1. Under colonial rule,most people did not have access to good roads, good power supply, and potable water

2. Only a tiny minority went to school,even fewer went to colleges like these

3. Most people were not rich. They were poor.

4. Development was dependent on whether the colonialists found your area useful to their purposes. Hence the police college being built in Lagos.

anonimi:
A statement made to please his host.
Nothing more to see there.

Any reform that quickly make life harder and the result is not making life easier either, is not a reform but miscalculated policy.

Worldbank official? The desperation and quest to always seek validation from Worldbank and IMF would have been funny if it wasn't so pathetic. "Confessions of an Economic Hitman."

NAN reports that the bank’s Managing Director of Operations, Anna Bjerde, said this on Tuesday while leading a group delegation to the president at the State House, Abuja.

The World Bank has commended President Bola Tinubu’s reform drive, describing Nigeria as a frequent global reference point for reform implementation and results.

The bank’s Managing Director of Operations, Anna Bjerde, said this on Tuesday while leading a group delegation to the president at the State House, Abuja.

Ms Bjerde said Nigeria’s reform outcomes over the last two years were commendable and widely discussed among global leaders, policymakers and investors.

She said, “Nigeria is a frequent example in my discussions around the world because the results achieved in two years are really commendable.”

Ms Bjerde praised Mr Tinubu’s consistency in communicating the necessity of reforms, noting that his steady leadership had built confidence despite implementation challenges.

She added, “Even when reform implementation is difficult, there is no turning back. You are staying the course.”

Ms Bjerde said feedback from Nigeria’s private sector confirmed strong reform outcomes and improving investor sentiment.

On the bank’s forthcoming Country Partnership Framework, she said it would be anchored on Nigeria’s development vision of a $1 trillion economy and seven per cent growth.

She said job creation would be central to the partnership, citing Africa’s growing population and the urgency of employment for young people.

Ms Bjerde identified infrastructure investment, agriculture modernisation and improved access to finance for small and medium enterprises as priority areas.

She said Nigeria’s low infrastructure spending relative to GDP required innovative public-private partnerships.

The World Bank official disclosed that the bank’s public sector portfolio in Nigeria stood at about $17 billion, while the IFC invests about $5 billion annually.

She added that a new reform-linked budget support operation was being prepared, alongside expanded risk guarantees to attract private capital.

“Your reforms and our budget support go hand in hand,” she said.

Earlier, Mr Tinubu said his administration’s reform agenda was irreversible, stressing that Nigeria had “its hands on the plough” and would not retreat.

He said, “Since we went into this turn of reform, we are never going to look back.”

The president said that although the reforms were painful initially, they were necessary to secure long-term stability and growth.

Mr Tinubu identified agriculture as a key pillar, citing mechanisation centres and openness to World Bank support on seeds and productivity.

He reaffirmed his commitment to transparency and accountability, describing the removal of the fuel subsidy and the unification of the exchange rate as difficult but necessary decisions.

Mr Tinubu added, “The first reaction was high inflation, but it has come down dramatically. Now that it is stable, we can help investors.”

The president urged the bank to accelerate innovative financing, reduce bureaucracy and deepen skills development. He assured the bank of Nigeria’s openness to deeper engagement and sustained partnership.

His father is certainly not a leader looter of Stockholm Syndrome sufferers who hail those who steal their money that should employ well paid workers to make government services and utilities available for everyone.

He is also definitely not a President’s son, who walks around with enough security to end terrorism, banditry and kidnapping that his clueless father has failed to do.
