Feel free to check anywhere that I have been accused of being a President Tinubu person and accepted it.

You have already stated that I shouldn't mention propaganda effectively telling me that anything I suggest as an achievement is going to be treated as propaganda.

As I don't waste my time chasing lost causes unlike Obidients, I am not going to even bring anything up.

History has judged zotesidrnt Tinubu on his tenure in Lagos state just like Peter Obi in Anambra.

I asked you of his achievements in Lagos, and you could not mention one.

Even in this current administration, show us his achievements, is it in subsidy removal only to pay subsidy again through the back door or is it floating of the naria against the $?

Show me the foundation he has set.

ElSudani:
It means you are not wired to understand them. Get your garri and relax.

Clown, keep fooling yourself.

It's obvious to anyone with working brain that Tinubu and his supporters are failures.

ElSudani:
I don't expect you to understand or appreciate anything this administration has done in the last year. It is of no use to people like you if it doesn't reduce the cost of garri.
If you are waiting for subsidized garri, it won't happen.

Does it mean there are no achievements or foundation set by this administration?

Why is it so hard, for you to name them?

ElSudani:
There will always be people like you in every society. You will still be pre occupied with the price of garri even when everyone around you see opportunities and are becoming millionaires.

Is there any sense or logic in what you said here?

Let's educate ourselves, what has your Messiah achieved in almost a year in office?
what are the foundations he has set or put or place?

aswani:
First off, he is not my messiah as I have never voted for him.

I am sure if he had not achieved much, Ndi Obidients will not be making their way to Lagos state, at least during his tenure.

Same recycled lies.
You have started to deny your Lord and personal saviour

Is his achievements in lagos so small and insignificant that you cannot mention them?

FuckOsuPigs:
An average Obedient's brain works in inverse🤣.

You're an Obedient.

Keep Fooling yourself, You cannot fool reality.

Clown.

kunle4toyeyaho:
So, foreign reserve rising from $3.7b to $34b within 9 months is also failure? Allocation to states and LG increasing by about 69% is also an index for failure? Ongoing 10 lane Lagos- Calabar is failure? Efforts to bring back railway system in southeast - south south is a sign of failure? The ongoing turnaround of Warri and Kaduna refineries is a form of failure? You are just being bitter unnecessarily

See Achievements, more Lamba and propaganda.


Useless ppl.

ElSudani:
Your own life starts and end with the current price of garri. Telling you about policies and laying a solid foundation for the economy is a waste of time.

Which foundation?

Keep fooling yourself.

NOETHNICITY:
True it is still too early to conclude on any assessment of the Tinubu administration

But I am sure that at after Tinubu’s 8th yrs in office Nigerians will beg him to continue

As lagosians begged him to continue?

Rubbish talk.

rinzaugustine:
Never knew buhari will be better than any Nigerian living or dead until the Mahmoud selected mandate thief came. It has been nothing short of a disaster never seen before in the history of Africa . The only thing inside tinubu head is how to form alpha beta, thief state resource, co habit with famous criminals like the chagouris to bleed Nigeria dry while his hungry online supporters wail daily to Peter Obi when common sense should have told them to direct their wails to crook tinubu that’s stealing Nigeria blind without anything to show for it

Well said.

aswani:
He failed in Lagos yet Ndi Obidient will still be pouring into Lagos daily for the promise of abetter future, and those there have no intentions of leaving.

Clown.

Ppl have been pouring into Lagos b4 and after independence, several decades b4 your failed Messiah became Governor.

If e sure 4 you, name his achievements in lagos.

I did not say you should name propaganda and Lamba.

davien:
Past matters a lot, that's the hardcore truth. Women won't tell you the whole of their past, but you should try to gauge if they had a decent past or not.
If you're married and an altercation happens then she says you aren't even like Mike, David etc that's when you know past matters.
Sometimes some women want you to kiss them on their forehead or suck their pvsy, their exes have set a standard for her.

Her ex and past experiences will always be compared to you. And how she submits to you is a combination of her past relationships, so many homes the wife is and will never stop nagging the husband, that's because no man in her past cautioned her and stopped that behavior.

Well said.

FuckOsuPigs:
I expected your response.🤣

You're an Obedient with lots of emotions🤣

It does not refute the fact, that your comment is useless and thoughtless.

dequir:
No one asks for dollar to import diesel any more.

That ended two weeks ago.

No one buys aviation fuel with dollar any longer.

Marketers pay in Naira to Dangote Refinery in Lagos, not dollar to some refineries in Netherlands or USA or India.

PMS, kerosene and all other refined products will join in May.

Dangote Refinery is also exporting refined products and he earns dollar and the dollar he earns are kept in the bank, not his house.

So the banks are having enough dollar in their custody for other uses and users.

This is not a matter of 'I don't like Tinubu' or 'I don't like Batists'.

It is a matter of simple economic cogitation.

Naira won't slide downward again.

Rather, it will keep rising against foreign currencies including your abductee, the dollar.

When Tinubu was conceiving the Lekki Free Trade Zone where Dangote Refinery is now built and where a seaport is now built, he knew that the Nigerian economy will be the winner ultimately.

What did your Governor build when he was in office that is of immense benefit to the economy today?

Stop hating.

Put your deflated ego under check and swallow your pride.

Nigeria is moving up and forward.

Don't be left behind.
©️𝖘𝖜𝖆

My friend stop fooling yourself.

All this propaganda has be refuted several times on this forum.

Your Messiah is a complete failure, just as he failed in lagos so he is failing now.

OkayDaddy:
Mumu, who brought Dangote to Lagos when Ondo was giving Dangote issues?

Who was the visionary behind Lekki FTZ and the Seaport Dangote vital to the refinery's operation.

Tinubu is visionary, and with time, his detractors will be advertising his achievements carelessly just as you are doing.

More Lamba and propaganda.

Nothing factual.
Capital Clown.

FuckOsuPigs:
All these dindinrin youths who call themselves Obedient can't think outside the box. You want to embark on the substandard borehole sinking spree just to prove a point?

The weakness of an average Obedient is his/her emotions🤣.

Chai!

In your mind now, you would count yourself among those with working brain?

CodeTemplar:
The concept is akin to NNPCL trying to build another refinery in Sokoto that will sell petrol at until market price when the old ones cannot run.
It is the typical Lagos looting template the Tinubu APC has adopted so far.

You are 100% correct.

I had to check East West road, it connects Lagos to Calabar the same purpose of this road, the East West road is in very bad condition, same with other Federal roads rather than fix it, this useless government wants to duplicate the same project just to loot and waste scarces resources.

And the funny part is some low IQ FOOls are here defending them.

My question is of what use is this useless road, when we have East West Road and several federal roads that are dilapidated?

APC very useless party with useless supporters.

It's unfortunate to be from such a country with low IQ ppl.

EponObi:
Bunch of jokers. Nigeria really spoilt her people silly with subsidies; so much they are tuned out of reality.

It's only in Nigeria that people wants all the solid infrastructures and the goodies that comes with it without paying a dime. Even tax, most don't pay. Before the fuel subsidy was removed, most were moving about with the faux reality that they are rich and earning enough. The removal shattered that reality completely. And na them dey say rubbish the previous years about the government not doing anything for them.

Fuel and dollar subsidy was removed everyone started crying.

Without toll, how do people expect the project to come to reality? The funniest thing is that most people championing this narrative have traveled outside the country and seen how infrastructure work in "sane climes".

Another issue is illiteracy. Many don't even understand the project, its importance, and what it stands to offer us all regard savings on travelling expenses, economic boost, and repping the nation on the global stage.

The costal highway will reduce the travel time from Lagos to Ilaje, Ondo State to just 45 minutes (that's just for one out of the many lanes that will cut across the South West, South East, and South South). Anyone who thinks the #3k toll gate is too expensive should use the alternative routes. It's that simple. Moreover, the minister Umahi said the 3k is just the average, meaning small vehicles could pay like 1.5k and heavy duty trucks pay 5k. So wtf is the buzz all about?

Like I've said, the country pampered the people too much with subsidizations. Too much.

You all complain of a simple toll on the greatest infrastructural development this nation has ever seen but will pay through your noses by acquiring loans and selling generational properties just to get visa to the "saner climes". You will get there to become 4th class citizens and pay through your noses all the days of your lives to their governments in form of taxes, bills, etc - literally slaving away daily so you don't get thrown out of your houses.

People think a 700km costal highway is one of those roads within their housing estates. A super highway that will have a train lane in the middle for that matter. Una never ready.

Jargon.

In your mind now , you made sense?.

Crap.

Honestey:
Going by this level of Atiku's hyper reaction to this project I'm smelling a big big fish. It's either,

Alh Atiku had that Coaster Highway project in his mind if he was able to win the race for presidency or

Alh Atiku is 100% certain that this project alone will make Tinubu become the greatest hero among political class now and in the future.

As a person I think Tinubu is actually using this project to cut wing of people who are probably syphoning our natural resources along the coast.

Gosh!!! Are there ppl still daft like you?.

See comment

pseudaria:
Look at the foolishness in your reasoning. How can a road project cost more than the entire 36 states annual budget. Chagoury HITECH that can barely repair apapa-tin can road was awarded the contract when Julius berger and ccecc are there. Appropriation bill was pegged at 500m initial release for the project but over 1trn has been released dubiously yet a fool like you is still typing foolishly instead of just admitting the entire project is a scam and a conduit pipe to embezzle recklessly. There would be no road but they will keep lying that the road is under construction while trillions will keep vanishing. Stupid bigoted race of morons who should be recolonised

What do you expect from a Zombie?

Kukutenla:
Remove the professor from your moniker. You sound too disoriented and illogical to be one.

The main crux of Atiku's argument if looked at without ethnic bias will ensure the project does not become another Kano-Kaduna or Kano-Maradi project. The points he raised are critical to the life of the project. But you can't see that because your head is buried deep in ethnic chauvinism.

Where were you guys when Buhari as wasting money and resources on all those things you mentioned? Let me guess. You were busy shouting sai Baba and calling anyone who raised any objection an enemy of state. Yet you're here to blame Atiku today for not speaking up.

Meanwhile ethnic champions like you always conveniently ignore the fact that Buhari admin completed Lagos-Ibadan rail and 2nd Niger bridge all in the South. It is his abandoned projects up north you use to justify your defence of a shady and shoddy contract that even the Minister of Works is finding difficult to defend.

Same zombie worship you gave to Buhari for 8 years is what you have started with Tinubu. When he is called out, instead of considering the question raised with a bit of commonsense, you bend to ethnic jingoism.

All the trash about OBJ and Yaradua etc become convenient for you when you want to hide under North/South divide to defend a scam. Is Obasanjo now a good president? Is Jonathan now a southerner who was hampered by the north? I am ashamed at how morally fickle you lots are!!

The point Atiku is making is that the road is contractually twisted. He is not complaining about the award of the contract but the shady nature of the award. Can you be intelligent enough to decipher between the two?

Excellent response
The clown was trying to sound intelligent, but made a fool of himself.
Clownish professor.

urobodoski419:
Dem fit shock u bro . Man city win 2 nil . Arsenal 0-0 or 1-1 . Atleti 1-0 ,Barca 1-1 .

True..

IbeOkehie:
So why ask all those jejune questions?

Economics is the same everywhere, the principles work in China, Singapore, Chile, Ireland...all recent examples of prosperity sowed by conversion to liberal capitalist free market systems. It worked in Nigeria with SAP and the few sectors that were fully or partially privatized and deregulated. You know this, the evidence is there.

The primary reason it may seem not to work in Black Africa is the DEMOGRAPHIC DIVERSITY of most nations. Homogeneity or at least ethnic dominance is a key factor for prosperity. I'd think you would know that too.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Is Africa more diverse than US or China?

I rest my case.

IbeOkehie:


Of course there is. It's different from government related corruption because

(1) The business will suffer the consequences, not the public.

(2) Customers most times have a say in patronizing the business.

(3) Competing businesses provide alternatives.

Ever heard of admission officers demanding sex as a bribe at private universities? It happens at federal and state universities, video abounds on the internet.

Private banks that give out corrupt or foolish loans will suffer the consequences and fail. Diamond Bank is a good example. A major shareholder installed his son as CEO. That's a form of corruption called nepotism.

Unfortunately he wasn't very good at the job. His family lost a lot of money when the bank collapsed.

If Diamond Bank was owned by government the losses would have been borne by the public. There would also have been a lot of controversy about the sale to Access Bank.

MTN in the early days of telecoms was corruptly overcharging customers based on per minute billing. People complained. Globalcomm then provided an alternative per second billing and the rest is history.

I've recounted the past. Now prediction. The new Renting Laws in Lagos state are a form of price regulation. Enforcing them will result in higher prices and corruption. We will all read and hear the stories in the coming years.

Corruption exists everywhere. The real quest is how to reduce it. The evidence is that such reduction can be accomplished by implementing widespread privatization of resources and commercial institutions and deregulation of prices.

These are simple, easily deduced facts. I don't understand why Nigerians are so in love with socialism despite available evidence that we all have lived through in the past 20 years or so. Well actually I do know why, but let's not get into that.

Thanks anyway, have a good day.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Am a strong advocate for capitalism and private sector control of the economy, you can check my quotes.

What you fail to understand is that what works in Western climes does not work here in Africa.

IbeOkehie:
There's no country in the world with zero corruption. Certain public functions can only be done by government to avoid self dealing and promote fairness. There should be severe restrictions on the expansion of government beyond those functions.

Also note that with privatization and deregulation, the vast majority of government agencies can be abolished. For example, there's no need for a Ministry of Sports or government controlled Nigeria Football Federation.

The advancement of technology can convert certain public functions into private activity. Example block chain currencies like bitcoin can replace the naira and thus the Central Bank.

Abolishing government subsidies, control of resources, ownership of commercial institutions and regulation of prices - and the agencies that administer them - will drastically reduce corruption and also cut down the cost of government.

Evidence abounds. Unilag vs Covenant University or NITEL/MTEL vs private telecoms companies. Cement Armada subsidy corruption vs privatized cement companies.

When privatization & deregulation is implemented, it will result is strong economic growth and increased government revenue. There will be enough for government officials to steal without heavy impact on the lives of citizens. This is the case in every developed country including USA, China, Singapore and Japan.

When such stealing does occur, it's up to the citizens to hold politicians accountable at the ballot box.

Thanks.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Who told you there is no corruption in the private sector?

Max24:
Nah you know. May your ranting never stop !

Am sure you have nothing to eat this night.

Zombie.

No worry 2027 is far, very soon poverty would reset your brain.


Clown.

IbeOkehie:


Human greed and selfishness are common human failings that can only be acted on when there's OPPORTUNITY to do so.

The cause of corruption in Nigeria is

government ownership of economic resources & commercial companies,
government payment of subsidies and
government regulation of prices.

That's it. Once all that government involvement is abolished, there will be very little opportunity for anyone to act upon their natural tendency to be greedy, wicked and selfish. I've never heard of anyone consenting for sex as a condition to admission to Covenant or Igbinideon Universities, but it's rampant at Unilag.

Evidence in Nigeria - telecoms, cement and broadcasting companies. Very little complaints of corruption in those industries because government has very little involvement in their operations.

Simple stuff, but somehow very hard for Nigerians to comprehend.

Have a good day.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

You are half smart.

The bulk of corruption occurs in government ministries and parastals, the executive the legislature and the judiciary as well as the police.

Are you suggesting we privatise those agencies and arms of government ?

IbeOkehie:
The answer lies in articulating the CAUSE of corruption in ANY country. Then everything becomes clear.

I await your answer - What is the CAUSE of corruption?

Good Luck to Nigeria.

What kind of meaningless question is this?

You have Google to ask and you are asking me.

Human greed and selfishness, which is inherent in blacks than any other race.

Max24:
Keep ranting. Tinubu will spend his 8 years and it will be the most impactful administration in the history of the country

Who cares? If he likes he should spend 400yrs, your life would only get worst.
Clown.

Most impact in distributing poverty and hardship

Olodo

IbeOkehie:
Dear Sir, the MAGNITUDE of corruption in Nigeria can never surpass what happens in USA, China, Australia or even Japan. Simple reason....Nigeria has very little money available to be stolen.

Again.....WHY is Nigeria so poorly ranked in the Corruption PERCEPTION Index? Note the word perception, it's there for a reason.

Good Luck to Nigeria

I hate to argue things that are obvious.
Is corruption index based on amount stolen or frequency or level of corruption on the system?
