Ofunaofu: Tinubu has to be discussed on every thread, bro. He is the president, for Pete’s sake. His policies are affecting him, you, and every Nigerian
And on this whole demarketing Tinubu talk… that’s funny. Tinubu is basically the chief demarketer of his own administration.
What exactly do you know about marketing and de-marketing ? Ogbeni abeg shift , you think national economics is about running a supermarket?
CodeTemplar: our system is not set up for growth. It iasetup for grabbing and sharing of resources. Just look at Tinubu's top projects. No stands any real chance of correcting the ills of the system
You are completely wrong , you dont need to like tinubu but he is the only one after Obj to understand how to setup systems.

Ofunaofu: The south west where Tinubu is hoping to get a sizable block vote must be watered down drastically
If you had any logical sense at all , ask yourself why would south west vote makinde when they already have a south westerners in aso rock who has a wider network base beyond just sw ?
Everything is not emotion or sentiments, try and use the brain God gave you .
This is a serious state , I always laugh when people blame the president or minister cos of lack of electricity, while forgetting the fact that the president has decentralised power , instead of asking their governors what plans they have to domesticate that law , they will rather point at Abuja.
Same thing will happen after state police is achieved, people will leave their governors and still blame Abuja for insecurity in their community.
Nigeria is the only country I know where governors get away with a lot of things and people allow it .
PresidentMUGABE: 1 Peter 3:9 Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.”
To be a Christian is no joke…
People may think what Obi did was weakness, but I tell you, it takes a man who has risen to a higher level of self-control and maturity to keep his head high in such circumstances.
The easiest thing to do was to react. But reacting impulsively is often the path of the weak. And perhaps that was exactly what his tempter wanted.
Just like Jesus in the wilderness: the easiest thing for Him to do was to turn stones into bread. After all, He had the power. But that was precisely what the tempter was trying to reduce Him to. Jesus refused to play by the tempter’s rules.
callmeDDD: why cant he support a southern candidate for president? Obi pulling out is really a painful thing to atiku camp. All these northerners think south can't win election without them in control and that should be totally be wiped out from their thoughts. This is not 1980, things have really changed. All I see is desperation, all of them have been pained.
Let's even agree with him that south have done 18 years , can he support north central to produce the president instead ?

30-Year-Old APC Aspirant Living With Dwarfism Clears Screening for Kaduna Reps Race
A 30-year-old APC aspirant living with dwarfism, Mahmud Sadis Buba, has successfully passed the party’s screening process ahead of the Kaduna federal constituency bye-election. Buba’s emergence has sparked widespread reactions online after videos and photos from the screening exercise went viral, with many Nigerians praising the increasing participation of young people in politics. Party officials confirmed that the aspirant met all requirements for the House of Representatives race under the APC platform. Political observers say his successful screening highlights growing youth inclusion in Nigerian politics despite challenges such as limited funding, elite-dominated party structures, and internal rivalries.
Like play ,like play , this guy don become celebrity
insidelife22: Why is everyone talking about the "assumed underdog" No be juju be that
Oga rest! This your 2k task of trying to project obi as underdog don cast , nothing special about obi infact his close aids are beginning to spill the beans how he hires influencers , thugs etc. So rest from this format
Bobloco: Let me show you something that should make every Nigerian cold in their bones.
Goodluck Jonathan borrowed $3.8 billion in 5 years.
Buhari borrowed $32.6 billion in 8 years.
Tinubu has borrowed over $10 billion in less than 3 years, with another $24 billion still in the pipeline. That’s a total of $34 Billion in 3 years.
And the Senate just approved a fresh $516 million loan yesterday. For a road.
That is the Sokoto-Badagry Super Highway, funded by Deutsche Bank, at an interest rate of SOFR plus 5.35% per annum. Nine years to repay. A road. While Nigerians cannot afford to eat.
But here is the part nobody is saying loudly enough.
Jonathan and Buhari borrowed all that money AND still paid fuel subsidy AND still paid electricity subsidy.
Two governments. Combined debt of over $36 billion. And they were still subsidizing the pain of living in Nigeria. Still putting petrol at N165. Still keeping electricity tariffs low. Still absorbing the shock so ordinary Nigerians could survive.
Then Tinubu came.
He told us the subsidies were the problem. He said the country was bleeding money. He removed fuel subsidy on day one. He devalued the naira. He raised electricity tariffs by over 300%. He told us the pain was necessary. He told us to endure, that better days were coming.
We endured.
Petrol went from N185 to over N1,300. Electricity bills tripled overnight. Food prices doubled, then tripled again. Businesses closed. Jobs disappeared. Families broke apart.
And what did we get in return for all that sacrifice?
More borrowing. Faster borrowing. Bigger borrowing. Nigeria’s total public debt has gone from N87 trillion when Buhari left to N159 trillion today. That is N72 trillion added in less than 3 years. The fastest debt accumulation in Nigeria’s history.
Clueless Buhari took 8 years to grow debt by N75 trillion. Tinubu did the same in under 3.
And debt servicing? Nigeria spent $9.9 billion just servicing external debt between June 2023 and August 2025. By 2028, debt servicing alone is projected to hit N91 trillion. That is more than Nigeria currently spends on health, education, and security combined.
Over 80% of government revenue goes to paying back loans. Not building schools. Not building hospitals. Not fixing roads.
Paying back loans.
Yet he is still borrowing.
The $516 million approved this week is not even the scary part. The scary part is that Tinubu has formally requested approval to borrow $21.54 billion, €2.19 billion, and ¥15 billion more. That is over $24 billion in one borrowing plan. More than 60% of Nigeria’s entire foreign exchange reserves.
Let that number sit in your chest for a moment. We are borrowing in all foreign available currencies.
A government that removed subsidies to save money is borrowing at a pace no Nigerian government in history has ever attempted.
So where is the money going?
Not to your electricity. That one you now pay for in full. Not to your fuel. That one you now pay market price for.
Not to your roads. Those are still the same death traps.
Not to your hospitals. Doctors are still on strike or emigrating.
Not to your children’s schools. ASUU is always one disagreement away from another shutdown.
Nobody can account for it. No clear audit. No transparent project tracking. Just loan after loan after loan, approved in legislative chambers in a matter of hours, disappearing into a system that has never once been held accountable.
Jonathan borrowed and we saw Abuja-Kaduna rail and Universities across the country, etc.
Buhari borrowed and we saw the completion of second Niger Bridge, Lagos-Ibadan expressway, Abuja airport terminal.
Whatever you think of those projects, they existed.
You could touch them. You could drive on them.
Tinubu has borrowed N72 trillion in under 3 years. Point to what was built other than 40 kilometers of road and the purchase of Emblems for more tax.
This is not governance. This is a government that removed the one thing that kept ordinary Nigerians from complete destitution, handed the savings to a system nobody can audit, and then borrowed more on top of it, faster than any leader before them.
And every single Nigerian alive today, including newborns, is carrying a debt they did not consent to.
Every child born in Nigeria today is born owing. That is not a metaphor. That is the balance sheet of a country being hollowed out in real time.
If this does not make you angry, check your pulse. The only hope we have is to have hope that things will get better, and this government continues to renew our hopes for a better Nigeria that they can’t give us.
This hope is a danger to our collective existence and Nigerians are tired of Hope. In the midst of all these, the only defense the defenders of this government has is that “We Do Not Understand Economics.”
Is there anyone reading this who needs a PhD in economics to know when he or she is hungry and suffering? 😭
Ofunaofu: As the 2027 general election approaches, one of the most commonly used phrases among Nigerians, especially voters...is “Vote wisely.”
Yet, the phrase is often misconstrued as an attack on a particular candidate. In fact, many Tinubu/APC supporters seem to interpret it as a direct jab at Tinubu, reacting hysterically and launching venomous verbal attacks at anyone who says it.
Ironically, if “Vote wisely” sounds offensive to someone, perhaps they should ask themselves why
Ask your fellow 2k members who went berserk after Sarah Ibrahim spilled the beans on you hypocritical mob .
PresidentMUGABE: A quotes by Mr Peter Obi has just been posted on Australia Government Website....
The movement is becoming Global
((((( If I must change parties 20 times to stand for what is right, I will do it. You cannot use yesterday's system to build tomorrow.......Peter Obi. )))))))
DOLLARISED-Primaries can't produce a frugal, charismatic and prudent leader with integrity...know this and know peace..
.........Electricity was not invented by the continuous improvement of candles...... . . .
. When the Titanic was sinking the people on the top floor deck were dancing thinking it was a joke..... The political class are dancing when 88% of Nigerians go to bed with empty stomach every day....
They are still dancing.....thinking, the sachet rice they are now sharing is the solution....
YesDaddyTill203: Obi no dey give shi shi, facts are coming out.
Again, I have said it repeatedly that whatever these people are accusing others of is exactly what they are doing in secret.
They are always accusing others of getting paid for supporting APC on NL and other places. This is because that's exactly what they are doing in secret, hence they think everyone is like them
Willy2025: All these ones decamping are retards or APC rejects with zero electoral values. The only party befitting them is NDC so that they can be soundly defeated NDC does not have structures or offices anywhere in the country except Yenagoa and Seriake Dickson sitting room in Abuja. They don't have party offices anywhere in Nigeria except on the social media. Is that the party or people to be taken seriously
That guy that defected cos of paddy iyamu knows he's a goner so he wants to use 2023 format by quickly going back to Obi's camp , unfortunately that format don cast , he will loose big next year at the polls , iyamu is winning hands down.
