This guy is meant to be a barrister he should be smarter than this .... he is now talking like a politician ,welcome to politics. He should keep his evidence for the courts .cos inec won't change what they have announced.
SamaritanGirl: Even Gandollar has an axe to grind for playing his bribery video in ring road in broad daylight during the last election. Even though I don't support anything APC. They brought so much anguish to the people.
Even the Oba has an axe to grind with obaseki.. the dude spent 8 years fighting everybody .
naptu2: Governor Fashola held several meetings with the host community in Ibeju Lekki before bringing Dangote to meet them. He did this so that the project would not suffer the kind of problems that the Olokola Refinery encountered. He told the host community that they should ask for what they want, but they should not ask for too much. He made it clear that the area would benefit a lot from the refinery, a lot more than the money that they would receive, so they should ask for what they want, but they should not demand too much.
Ajinoride: For your information,he was already a millionaire as far back as the 80s. He was literally dragged into been a pastor. He has been a businessman for as long as I can remember
You are very correct ,even before his dad and rccg became famous he was already a successful business man in UK he owned prince's of edgeware, he also owned wisemen apparels at opebi and had branches around Nigeria, he was also involved in oil and gas ,the guy no be small boy oh !
AbujaCitiBlog: If APC wins in Edo State then its clear that Nigerians are cursed.
It's not about being cursed , life is a reward based system what you sow is what you reap , let me break it down, assuming you have a girl who likes you but cos you think she likes you so you don't give her attention, meanwhile your neighbour who is a thug begins to show her love and attention and speak her love language, you will be very foolish to think she won't give your neighbour her time ,hell! She will bang him as well and most probably dump you ! Keep deluding yourself that edo people won't vote apc .actions speak louder than words!
Pdp is busy playing around , apc have been campaigning as if their lives depend on it , when they win the election some fools will start crying rigging.
This is the best way to go , stop putting your eggs in one basket, how can a country as big as Nigeria wait for the north or north central before it can feed herself ? We need all the states of the federation to begin producing agric commodities at exponential rate if they can do this, food inflation will fall , export earnings will rise , IGR of most states will also balance out. Our governors should stop being lazy !
oz4real83: I watched the minister of sports' interview on political platform, channels TV and was surprised when he said it wasn't his fault for Nigeria's failure at the Olympics, that people were put to occupy various positions and duties, he forgot to tell us who appointed the mumus that didn't do their duties. If you appoint a mumu to carry out a task, when that mumu fails, the responsibility is on the appointer of the mumu . The minister as well as other Nigerians should always learn to take responsibility for their actions or inaction
While not holding brief for the minister he has a valid point , the minister can't appoint chairman for the various sport federation, it has to be done within each federation, and if the govt through the minister try to impose ,Nigeria will be banned from such sport ,take for example the case of NFF ,fifa almost banned Nigeria some years back cos of meddling with the nff selection process.
Your tweet exposed how stupid you actually are , in your little mind you think mossad don't know the leaders of hamas ? Smh , you guys just keep exposing your daftness globally.
DevilsEqual: These guys get old and they wouldnt be able to keep up with some things. Thats 12years apart
U guys even expected a 90years old WS to come out and protest
I wonder how u think tho. Humans arent pre-programmed robot that are coded to respond to same issues in identical manners at diff times
Also, they arent under obligations to do that, neither do they have to do things to impress u
Dem Sowore and Adegboruwa wey comot sef, una no see them. If u wan scream tribalism, scream am . Dem no care
You have time to reply that dunce , none of them participated in this protest but are online urging others to go protest in the sun and rain ,he is busy waiting for soyinka to spoon feed him , as if without soyinka protests can't be done.
Kobojunkie: Oh! So, all currently developed countries in the world today followed the same developmental map/blueprint, abi? Na so your history teaches you? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Try not to be daft , you claimed in your previous quote developed countries practice taxes on bread and pads etc , just saying developed is generic and I helped you by breaking down some advanced countries and clearly stated you give us the timeline when they began taxing bread and Co.
But since you are ignorant you have to save face by laughing all over the place like a slowpoke .
Kobojunkie: The taxation did not begin after these countries became developed so your supposed point is in fact moot.
Kobojunkie: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 .. it seems you are struggling with comprehension there.
Since you have comprehensive knowledge kindly state the following;
1. What year did Britain, USA OR any other advanced country begin taxing bread , sanitary pad etc asides VAT ? 2. What was the production level of these countries and their income bracket ?
Let's begin the discourse from here Its not enough to just bandy words give us facts then we can discuss l
Kobojunkie: The taxation did not begin after these countries became developed so your supposed point is in fact moot.
Are you trying to compare developed countries taxation system with 3rd World African countries ? Before you respond please note I am on a PHD towards political history and governance so be careful how you reply cos I will use you to test my thesis , it won't end well for you 😉
Kobojunkie: Governing is another thing yet the same Ruto who had all of Kenya believe that the bill was do or die has rejected the same bill. What does that say to you?
First off to be honest the bill was not well thought out , I mean how can you tax bread and sanitary pads ? But it still doesn't remove the fact governance is different from politics and gimmicks , the reality when you enter office will make you take decisions you didn't prepare for ,except you want to deceive yourself and ride the storm Sam way buhari kept paying subsidy with borrowed funds.
Threedoorsdown: This guy was once praised as one of the best presidents in Africa. What a sad turn
Alas a bitter reminder that politicians are never to be trusted. They won't hesitate to waste the lives of people just to have their way.
RIP to the fallen.
Obidients used him last year as yardstick for a new Africa as he defeated the incumbent, then placed him on a high pedestal , what they fail to realise is winning an election is 1 thing , governing is totally different as you will meet reality when you resume office of what your country ìs really worth, beautiful speeches won't pay workers salary or loans or balance budget deficit .
The other president in Argentina they used to mock tinubu and apc is struggling seriously.... let them keep deceiving themselves Obi will do differently.
Racoon: Senseless damage control . The original plan was to spend a staggering amount of the nation's scarce resources to buy him a presidential jet while this nation is enmeshed in unimaginable debt burden.
Meanwhile, the citizens continue to groan in pain of hunger, unemployment, high cost of living, economic stagnation, deteriorating insecurity, poor healthcare system, investors/forex flight and double-digit galloping inflation.
Now, the questions remains why can't Tinubu fly commercial as the British PM flies British Airways and save the nation further economic loss? Why not use proceeds of selling the planes into a people-oriented project( improve electricity generation etc)? Why going to buy a new jet with the current economic realities?
Hey dullard ! How much is the cost for electricity generation and how much is a jet , your small mind told you 3 jets can fund the power needs for 200m people ? When I say you are the daftest nairalnder you just proved me right !
Racoon: See what Kenyans did in their own case. Kenyans refused to sit and watch their country go down the drain where theses ruthless African leaders wants to drain them down into the abyss.They refused the intimidation, oppression, repression and suppression by their home govt.
They violently revolted against their home government supported IMF-inspired oppressive taxation policy until their government revert it. They didn't sat as lame ducks or be doing Baba soope zombiesm. Your voices will be louder and your struggles will be heard loud enough across the globe, fight and fight harder! Docile giant of Africa!
I know you are the dullest nairalander but for the sake of clarity I will say it again , you are daft and dull , you have 2 hands , legs and a mouth what is stopping you from organising a protest , bloody hypocrite sitting down in your house and urging others on social media to protest, not once have we seen you in active participation in anything ,your only job is to be on nairaland disturbing people with nonsense! You claim APC shut down Nigeria in 2012 , why can't pdp or lp do the same , you are waiting for soyinka and Co to do the job for you, bloody phoool!
tishbite42: Don't mind the idiot The Soviets defeated the Germans The West only hype their D-Day nonsense Normandy landing
I studied political science and history in school I am waiting for him to make that mistake in persisting in his rubbish then I disgrace him on this platform , same Germany that have PTSD when they remember Russia , common sense should tell anyone if it was so easy to defeat Russia Nato would have done that long ago .
As at today look at how Russia have carved Ukraine out of its borders and some folks still think its a joke ! For usa to sanction cross border attack then you should know Nato is getting desperate.
Raf4: Are you a purple European wannabe citizen? Hear this again, Russia can never ever dare Germany. If not for USA timely intervention, Germany would have utterly destroyed USSR/Russia during WW2
Keep deceiving yourself with that narrative about usa saving Russia, even AI can't give such ridiculous narrative, and if you persist I will drop a compendium of books on the world war and how Russia turned the tide against Hitler.
[quote author=maupe post=130223262][/quote]Rufai is a Dundee! Obj came to power and all sanctions were lifted thus there was inflow of money and foreign investments, all these trying to compare different scenarios and make one person look better than the other is nonsense , the same people that were telling us Abacha was a good leader and handled the economy well are not trying to tell us obj was the best , while I agree obj was a decent leader ,the honest truth is anyone who took over from buhari will struggle to get the economy on track, 1 year is not enough.
Yeah ! Run along ! Cos you can't dispute facts , what was documented is not fiction and 1000 obidients can't change history , how you even believe infrastructure is not needed to boost an economy is quite funny 😄.
WhereMyLoud: Before you rushed to your Meta Ai did you read the qhole piece he wrote or u just saw "infrastructure" and ran like myopic kid to check like its a new word in the dictionary. Every other things he said about bailout and investment in american busineses is he wrong? Olodo.!! I know u must be "Batist". A set of people are using your life and the life of your unborn generation to play jogba you are there with your myopic reasoning typing rubbish. Was it road and bridges that took America out of the great depression? Abi after building did they use the route to trek out of the great depression.? People like you dont rrad questions completely before answering and wen u fail you start saying he lecturer is wicked.
U just screenshot that crap and post here. I bet you haven't gone through the article it was drawn from extensively before giving your rebuttal.
The government of the day is neck deep in debt and is still planning to borrow to do what? Build coastal highway. How much is a dollar to naira? Do you know that for every $1 nigeria borrowed in May last year at the rate of 750 - 900 is now 1450 to replay? The economy is dwindling and its coastal highway that is the only solution? How much is fuel? Even as an OPEC member how are you benfittin from your country's oil production? Grow up kid
All this crap you wrote doesn't change the fact you and your gang lied about how usa got out of depression, your claim they didn't invest in infrastructure is a bogus lie and I gave you a historical document to prove it .
MEEVEET: Why not ask your AI how America got out of the great depression
Lmao
Are you daft or just plain mischievous? Google gave you historical resource stating what they did to get out of depression you are still trying to insist on a fallacy ?
MEEVEET: [b]Yes one man can't change a country but the ideas of one man adopted by the general public can change a country
The problem with APC is fundamental they do not know how development works
1) To them they think borrow money build legacy projects and boom economy would start to boom...
Buhari did it rail lines Lagos to Ibadan, Abuja to Kaduna how have they stimulated the economy ? Both trains run at a massive loss We borrowed money to build something that would make us borrow more money to maintain
Do I talk about the second niger bridge? Waste If that money was used to lay gas pipeline network 5 free trade zones in South East it would be making profit today
2) APC wants to do with China, India, and the rest are doing instead of doing what they did when they were in our shoes
During the great depression did America invest in infrastructure to get out of it? What did they do... They invested in American businesses, help they grow and boom the economy stabilize
During the 2008 economic crisis did they use infrastructure to get out? Nope they gave $500 billion bailout to industries to stabilize
Yaradua gave banks $3.5 billion then 500 billion naira... That was when most of our banks went international, Nollywood got grant, tv stations got grant... Many industries did and nigeria did feel the impact of ylthat crisis
In fact last year was the first time in over 30 years America invested heavily on infrastructure
When Peter Obi told them that infrastructure doesn't kick start economic growth they laughed[/b]
You just exposed your ignorance , I'm not surprised you are an obidient, I won't be the one to reply you , let me allow Google and Meta AI reply you about America getting out of depression by not investing in infrastructure.
Also read this article below that Meta ai quoted as source reference
Randomgist: It's interesting that Obi is really putting everybody on their toes. Imagine people are taking it serious to know what caused an accident even though understanding is still low for some of them. If the road was wide andproperly dualized, maybe the impact would have been less. Not to talk about the time heavy duty vehicles should ply such road and the kind of road block by security officers that will necessitate drivers to always be in haste to beat time. Infact, a lot of things are wrong.
I know an average obidient is Daft but at times it's best to keep quiet, according to your logic accident happen because the road is not properly dualized , can you explain how lagos ibadan express that was newly rebuilt and doesn't have potholes can have multiple accidents this year alone ?
allcomage: I want to ask people in Lagos if they have 247 power supply with 6 Ipp he enumerated?
If you have been to lagos you won't ask this question, some major parts of lagos have almost constant light, Orile , alausa, magodo, ikoyi ,lagos island .
Angelfrost: Well, between building new schools that will end up being poorly equipped and staffed, and upgrading existing schools to world standard... I earnestly believe the latter makes more sense.
If the state does not need more schools, why waste funds doing such?!!
If the pressing need of the state is upgrade and equipment of existing schools, then building more schools becomes akin to white elephant projects and wasting of scarce resources.
Which anambra school was upgraded to world standard pls ? Can you show us ? Or you guys don't understand what world standard means ?
