Wike's relevance in naija is remaing just 1 year and about 6months..

Once tinubu wins his second term, he simply dumps him...

No human in naija politics will take wike along.. I repeat, no single naija politician will bring wike close...

You should kindly save your words and not bend the narrative when it doesn't happen the way you have spoken.

Many of you lots know nothing of the political climate and politics in playing season.

Hon. Saraki had a foresight advising them instead of going ahead with the Ibadan convention to set up a committee to amend fences but they did otherwise.

Na who no get foresight na him go complain for the end blaming another for his ignorant and prideful acts believing they are informed and studded.

We wish them all luck.

gammarays:
Time will tell. Just save this

There's no need to save it.
We are many who don't change the narrative when it doesn't go as we thought it is.

gammarays:
I predicted this
Fubara will deal with Wike in APC
A perfect checkmate

You have no idea of what is happening.
Just enjoy the moment and stop saying what will never happen.

Wike is solidly behind every political stroke in Rivers State.

RISQUE:
We wish him well in his future endeavours. The likes of Ehie Edison & Co. Who fought tooth and nail for your sake and the soul of Rivers State are the ones I blame not you. You not only fall hands, you really disappointed the entire Rivers people. We wish you goodluck.

The likes of those you mentioned were not thinking straight and about the true status of their political future before making the governor fight his predecessor.

They were fighting a fight without a solid foundation.

DyshApp:
A Nigerian lady has stirred intense debate online after sharing her opinion that a man’s financial success should be visible through the appearance and lifestyle of the woman he is with.

The lady made this known while being featured in the Honest Bunch podcast.

In her argument, she stated that a man who is doing well financially naturally ensures that his partner looks good, is well taken care of, and reflects his level of prosperity.

She pointed out that in some Igbo communities, men are known for dressing modestly, sometimes appearing in very simple clothing.

However, she added that observers often look at the wife to determine whether the man is truly wealthy, as her appearance typically reveals the family’s financial status.

“A man’s money should reflect on his woman. It shows you are doing well.

In Igbo land , you’ll see a man wearing a short nicker and looking anyhow but if you want to know he’s rich, look at his wife”

I wonder why she prefers to use the Igbo people as an example...!!!!

Well, what can we talk about the woman to reflect on the man that he has married well?

First, his role is strictly limited to producing the technical documentation and supervision of the work. I have already paid a separate fee for the 'Market Survey,' which covered the time and effort required to research current prices for the BoQ. Therefore, I should not be charged again for that same effort via a percentage fee.

Second, I will be handling the sourcing of all store-bought items, appliances, and electronics personally. My procurement standards require a level of due diligence—specifically dealing directly with manufacturers and authorized representatives to ensure warranties—that goes beyond a standard open-market purchase.

Third, since I will be executing these purchases myself, and because the BoQ estimates likely already include a standard market buffer, these items must be excluded from the calculation of his Professional Fee. [b]The 35% or now 20% fee should apply only to the construction works he is directly supervising, [/b]not to goods I am procuring myself.

The bolded is what it should be then.

I need not read to the end.
We can't be saying this no sense in this time...
It's like saying the herders-farmers issue was started by the Fulani Muslims from the North.

FEGEITOK:
Thank you very much.

In summary:

The 35% fee is not a "Professional Fee."
That is a Profit Margin for a Design-Build Contractor.
He is surreptitiously trying to act as the Main Contractor, not just the Architect.

I have followed on the posts and to the point of the architect being the one to source for quality of store bought items.

Nevertheless if he is not bearing any risk(s) whatsoever on all aspects of the the project to be handed then I think a 20-25% fee is okay for him.
I would want to believe his experience and expertise on the job is way way above 15 years.

ArcSEMPECJ:
You mean learn Politics of food inflation, hunger and starvation on the masses and the Politicians living in luxury?

[b]Fubara was only trying to protect the interest of the masses [/b]after seeing what he was told to offer and not listening to any bad advice...

It will surely take 8 generations to come before Nigeria can smell goodness.....learning politics mtchewww

That's a scam I won't believe as regards the bold.

Point to one State governor, past or present that has worked or is working in the interest of the masses in Nigeria?

One can't be said to be not a criminal because he is considerate in his acts.....

Their application for an interim injunction was refused, while all parties were cautioned against taking actions that could render the court’s eventual judgment nugatory.


The bolded is self indicting on those who think they are on the right track to have gone ahead to expel and issue out certificate of expulsion....

These class of people seem not to reason for reasons best known to them...

Dijita:
I don't think this is news. Even Wike practically confirm that the aim was to impeach him.
Could it be that president tinubu don't like impeachment? He restored the impeached speaker in lagos state as well.

PBAT knew Gov. Fubara erred which was as a result of listening to bad advice and since the governor is young and PBAT wants the governor to excel and learn politics.....
It's not easy for a predecessor to bring a successor against all odds in a State and from a minor minority.....

Why are we using our head to break coconut for another person to eat when our kids are hungry?

You scrambled jets to save another democracy while yours is being degraded and abused by bandits, kidnappers and terrorists.

Where were these jets when Gen. Uba was waiting endless to wave them his peek cap?

Where was this urgency and collaboration when ISWAP/ BH overan countless of our FOBs and killed own troops?

While we scrambled jets to save another, our troops were scrambled from a girl school they were there to protect and till date we still don't know who gave the withdrawal order in a supposed structured, "obey-the- last command" military

Tears!!

The bolded is one of the most important questions PBAT should respond to.

CyynthiaKiss:
Instead of Nigeria Government to stop the genocide against Christians , they went around creating propaganda just to change the the narrative about slaughtering of Christians in Nigeria..

Yesterday, they set up and bombed a mosque in Sokoto, all in a bid to create false impression that Muslims are also targeted..

Nigerian is evil, deceptive and malicious

Which ever way....
Let the Muslims complain also that they are at risk of being extinct and that they need the US to come save them rather than they become complicit in the evils in the region.....

anonimi:
The improvements observed in power supply must be due to privatised DISCOs working on a swim or sink mindset to make profit for their owners, from which governments (local, state and federal) obtain taxes instead of paying subsidies.

I also mentioned petrochemicals, right?

I don't know how you measure such improvements.....

How has the generated power increased from 1999 till date given the estimated number of users across the country!!!

Orlandoo:
This is how you people fail exams in school. Did you not see where I said that Atiku is the one who should have taken over from GEJ if he has been patient and played his game right?

Go and read what you wrote again....
How can you say Atiku was deceived!!!

That's how people come and say that PBAT is destroying opposition parties!!!

That's the reason why followers from one party make enemies of followers from opposition to the extent that they can't walk on the same road whereas it's not so for those who are their so called leaders...

AMINDA:
He merely exercised his right to vie for office. Atiku has never sought to undemocratically perpetuate himself in power, neither has he tried to use his position to destroy all opposition parties so his party can be the only one on the ballot as we are currently seeing today. Atiku is a democrat with an ambition to govern Nigeria, and that is not a crime.

I find it funny that anyone would stick to such statements....

The one who is destroying all opposition parties, please how is he doing it?


A married man is blaming another married man for destroying his matrimonial home!!!!!

Are you serious...?

Orlandoo:
Atiku is the biggest loser as a Nigerian politician since 2015. Not even GEJ. Man was in the best position as a northern PDP stalwart to take over from GEJ in 2019, yet he allowed Buhari and Tinubu to deceive him in 2015, joining them at the APC. Yet after using him to achieve their aim, they frustrated him out of the APC. Thereby paving the way for Tinubu to take over from Buhari. Atiku is not articulate at all. Just throwing looted money around. He should quit deluding himself thinking he will be president one day. His time has passed.

I never understand your direction....

So you'd expect PMB to finish two tenures of eight years and handover to Atiku from the same region?

anonimi:
PDP privatised the generation and distribution parts of NEPA in 2013, just as PDP privatised the petrochemicals division of NNPC to Indorama in 2006.

Both privatisation schemes in the electricity and petrochemical sectors have been successful.

A-looter Propaganda Congress, APC has failed to deliver their campaign promises to generate more electricity and reduce debt. Instead they have had more grid collapses and higher debts than PDP.

Please explain the bolded.....
Successful, (generation and distribution parts of NEPA) in what way?

viral video has stirred online debate after a Fulani man expressed frustration over what he described as long-standing discrimination against Fulani people in Nigeria.

In the video, he claims that Fulanis are “the most attacked tribe,” alleging that musicians, comedians, and ordinary citizens frequently label them as bandits. He argues that such generalizations unfairly punish millions of innocent Fulani people.

The man issued a controversial warning, saying that constant stereotyping could push some individuals toward self-defense. He referenced a comedian who allegedly insulted Fulanis, saying such remarks deepen resentment within the community.

And if such thing continues, it could lead the 15 millions of them to carry arms and turn bandit that they are being labelled, and you know what happens when 15 million terrorist surface in this country.

His comments have drawn mixed reactions across social media. While some sympathize with the frustrations of innocent Fulani communities who face profiling, others caution that using threatening language could escalate ethnic tensions. Analysts have urged restraint, dialogue, and responsible communication to prevent further division.

This one just doesn't know what he is saying....
Is it only the Fulani's that's being sterotyped in Nigeria and because you don't like it , the 15 million Fulani's will carry arms and turn bandits.......!!!!! Okay na....


Just know that the entire South comprises of different tribes and have been stereotype to be biafrans, militants, skull miners, yahoo yahoo, etc, etc........

Just note that this entire number can also carry arms to defend themselves if the need arises for them .......

•The region may sink deeper —Atiku warns



https://www.vanguardngr.com/2025/12/why-promising-northern-industries-collapsed-dangote/

They are hinging on deception....
Wetin concern AREWA and development of the Northern regions?
Is it only the North that government policies affect, or is it not this same North that is the most in control of government and governance in Nigeria?
PGEJ came with to build special schools for the almajiri in the North but this same North, refused to educate the uneducated within them but weaponized the uneducated to remove PGEJ from office?

Atiku is beating his chest in ensuring that the AREWA is united during his time as VP, but he could not say anything worthwhile as to the onward progress of primary and secondary education in this same North!!!!

Now, here is a platform in AREWA they want to use to intimidate PBAT, well good luck to them.....

When I hear and see that the North is no longer hiding under low grades to gain admission into unity schools and tertiary institutions then I'll take them serious. The kind of preferential treatment they kind in gaining admission into educational institution is not enjoyed by any other region, yet they want to keep being top in government and want to have the upper hand in decision making in the country......

Dogalmighty17:
Musa is minister of defense and not CDS. He is already retired from service. Musa may not even be taking orders from Tinubu. Musa was appointed under pressure from the US. It can be said that Musa presently is more powerful than Tinubu.
Who backs Tinubu? The Nigerian armed forces.
Who backs Musa? The military of the United States.
There is a reason why the US wanted him there. They will bypass Tinubu and relate straight with Musa.

Matawalle will resign in the coming days.

You seem not to know the politics of PBAT.
So USA dictated and recommended Musa to be appointed MoD and by you he is more powerful than PBAT...........I hope Musa does not live in that illusion.
No be USA dey pay him bills.
At the appropriate time Nigerians will know if it was worth appointing Musa as thr new MoD.

Those bandits who are shooting and shouting allahakaba, beheading people in videos they take pride to upload, which religion do they belong to?!!!

Gumi is at a place telling Nigerians that the bandits are doing such nonsense and heinous crimes aaignst people and the nation because the FG is the cause of hardship in the land but thr agitation by Kanu for secession is not caused by the same FG....!!!!!


Make 🔥 burn hypocrisy...

Mirasteel:
How are they committing genocide?

did hamas kill hundreds of thousands of babies and women? do you even know the meaning of genocide?

When you are ready to respond to my question then I'll take your discussion serious for the next stage. Thanks.

Goke7:
That's because these communities are distinct ethnic groups and different tribes, but that's why they have local governments, which should be the closest and nearest form of governance and security for them. The crisis in these places shows the level of very poor governance that exists there at the grassroots level.

Thats the problem we have when we play distinct ans diffrent tribes that's why the enemy finds it easy to come in to steal, kill and destroy. That's the first stance of complicity that these Christian communities do to themselves and blame another.

Goke7:
Sometimes I wonder if Plateau state has a governor, senators, House of Rep members, even the LG chairman and councillors. Their problems are local issues that need to be addressed locally and should not disrupt national peace and stability.

The issues with Plateau, Benue, Taraba is that Christian communities don't come together to help themselves in such issues even though they share boundaries. Everyone allow each community that has these troubles solve it by themselves or remain extinct.

I won't waste my time replying you , I will allow master jesus reply you

Acts of the Apostles 1:6-7 NLT

Whether you reply or not I dont care.
Even that which you quote, you even lack the simple requisite understanding of it.

According to him, starvation and insecurity were being weaponised to force populations into religious submission.

Shettima is a Muslim, the President is a Muslim. Is that not complete genocide to Christians in the political world?” the cleric thundered.

“The way forward is to remove Shettima. They want to control the whole country.”


This narrative does not hold substance.
In Nigeria, the office of the VP does not hold weight especially if the President's handlers are mischievous and power driven.
We can compare from 1999 till the tenure of PMB.

Pastor Dachomo is yet to call out those Senators in the State Assembly in his home State who have refused to raise their voices!!!

Pastor Dachomo has refused to call same for Christian members in the HoR and Senate who are from his constituency!!!!!!

We all know that reason why Tinubu went for a Muslim. Can the Christian community in the entire Nigeria mention one Christian in the North that PBAT can make his VP that will give him the required votes to win an election.....

Let's be truthful to ourselves.

benardtotti:
The Pastor doesn't even understand [b]God is not interested in physical kingdom,[/b]secondly his rhetoric about Muslim Muslim tidket will make more Muslims vote for Tinubu in 2027, he is ignorantly doing damage to the chances of Christian politicians.

With respect to the bolded....

Smartworkfx2:
Reading this past tweet of reno omokri, l am still amazed of how he got tinubu's approval. Can someone explain how this man became tinubu's loyalist.

Did RENO actually write this?. zoom and read carefully. Fani Kayode also made worse statements.

Tinubu is good at buying his enemies over. Same way he is buying PDP governors and members now.

If you are actually popular, how come you lost election in Lagos state. Kwankwaso is his next target.

Some of my friends blocked me because of buhari in 2015 and 2019. Some are repeating the same mistake now because of Tinubu. so l asked them why is tinubu using money to attract people to APC.

You are creating enemies because of politicians that don't know you. Tribe, region and religion sentiments will destroy you dear friends. I pray for your healing today.

What exactly do you think politics is all about?

If the president is (with money as purported) buying people over to APC(with the exception of Wike) and many of such in the past were strongly against him and the APC and even dragged others into the mud who were in the APC, then you should know that they never had intergity in the first instance and nothing they had done were actually in the interest of the people they represent if at all they represent anyone other than themselves.
