Nigeria is officially back to the Military era...but military in civilian clothes ...little did we know the fight of Jagaban and his Co travellers was not to stop oppression but to be the ones to oppress others.

Governance and institutions of government are being bastardised and ALL hailing the KING and emperor.

People with dissenting views are being intimidated by the hijacked institutions of the state.....what a shame!

Government cannot trace the corruption in subsidy and financiers of terrorism but non violent activists are being tracked and hunted like rats.........the capture of a state by kakistocrats, drug dealers and rent collectors

...wait ..so.Lagos state still.has a governor? ...ah that's good to know

Titogbanski:
Hypocrisy of the press...

Naira appreciate to N1385 because it is PBAT, when we crucified Jonathan with exchange rate of N150

It's more like power of propaganda. How a rate apc met at 700 has now appreciated at 1380 is the 15th World wonder

Same way you should not demand more tax without showing what you have done with previously collected tax or commerciaising all functions of government.

People who grew up on the streets cannot contend with one who was properly brought up

One who has no education cannot contend with an educated and well read person.

One who is a local champ cannot co tend with an exposed and enlightened person.

One who is man without principles and values cannot contend with a man with a mission. Values and principles.

One who has no sense but ego cannot contend with a wise man

VDM and Sowore story!

VDM is an ant ranting at a giant.

These Kakistokrats still do not realize they have to build local capacity before banning.

Chei Nigeria is under the total control of half wits

There is probably no need to explain. ApC's mission and methods in Nigeria are long established ..its for Nigerians to determine this is ok or not at the polls.

His opinion which he's entitled to

I am just wondering how many are Macaroni's team members that he couldn't run a successful comic business. Is it not the same guy who ran into several debts not quite long

Those who are horrible as ordinary class rep want to be shading the presidency

Wonders don shellac indeed

To be candid , I think the meat of the matter is Tinubu and how he is running the most useless government, its not about Mr Marcaroni , you or I this time.

He is not in debts and has not been in debts and hope he will not run into trouble or debts. Again , it's not about Mr Marcaroni , who has expressed his view of government.

Those who are class reps are not in aso rock and most of them did not contest for presidency , but the people who have the official control of two hundred million people would do their jobs and be criticised if they are failing as is the case.Tinubu and his crew said worse things about Jonathan , why is it now hurting differently.

Let's leave the messenger and face the message .

Those who are over 80 and claiming 74 , who are not able to run nigeria should go home and sleep if they don't want to be criticised.

BTW I thought buhari was the worst until I saw this government in full,glory.

The truth is soo strong that it must outlive a lie. SOWORE is one hell of an activist who deserves a national honour . A shame he may not be given full honours during his lifetime.

How can I get one for my car. Please ẹ sanu me. Am begging.

So your job description as APc online agent does not cover fuel expenses ...haha...supporter of wicked regime ko raye ra .....the supporters of the wicked at condemned

All you supporters of this calamity on Nigeria will even be broker than those who never believed in this Evil regime.

One thing is certain..as a people we have been cowed and silenced by the goons in power and their agents on ground breaking bottles or their agents online attacking people on social media. We are now officially in a drug and cartel empire. You cannot speak except the drug lord is happy for you to do so. You cannot complain or have a dissenting view or run the risk of attack on your person , business or interest


The elephant in the room is the inadequacy of buses that needs to be addressed .

The runners, foot soldiers and apologists of the cartel are only interested in attacking the person and silencing the views so Mr Escobar and his management team will.not look bad..

The laughable part are hypocrites who are claiming to defend the rights of the public from being filmed ......why not defend their rights from being elasticated by the criminal enterprise running this country at all levels?.

How can one thig silence the Lady over a public facility with all.those people around in full public glare.. ..we need to take our country back from this criminal cartel. If they can't fight with instruments of the state ..they fight with thugs and road runners like this lady challenging the tiktoker.

These 70 years and above people especially the political class, well described by Wole Soyinka as the wasted generation still are determined to destroy this country and the future of their grand children.

This man is delusional or determined to be doomed for eternity.

At this age he should be preparing to meet his maker but still full of lies and sh## and shameless.

Meanwhile he is still selling a book to quaff Nigerians on his way out

“The Young Officer Has No Respect For Constituted Authority; This Is Unacceptable. His Uniform Should Be Removed Immediately” — Joe Igbokwe Reacts After Soldier 'Challenged' FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike In Abuja


Credit: Oriental times

Another example of the mutual exclusivity of being APC and having brains screwed on.

Wike should have spoken to the superiors of the officer and reached an agreement with them. soldiers are well trained and hold on to their hair of command ...never would they allow a Wike to pass.

This shows the total loss of decorum, tact and commonsense in government . The soldier was very professional. Impunity jty is the mantra of this government and that is how they have used gutter , agbero tactics to get into power and also run this country.

The policeman is a dog in the Oba's Palace who thinks it must be the king of dogs with a taste of wine from the Kings wine droplets ....they are the real issue facing people in power with their eye service and lack of wisdom.....the dog was barking at the entrance of the lion's den

By the time this government is done, all our Institutions and values will be gone.

I have this nostalgic feeling , greatly missed Iyke Agu on the Sunday night request show ..imalways looked forward to it ..cool fm ..cool,fm ruled the airwaves.....Joyce , Kathy, Freeze, lakeside..

Amen ...May it be

I'm not Rufai's fan because of his bullying tendencies and how he interrupts his guests ...his questions are usually longer than his guest's answers.

I love his boldness and Adherence to fact speaking.

The right thing for anyone to do before defending or castigating him is to get the full context of the video. It looks like an old video though.

I would be reacting worse if somebody jumped the queue in front of me , so context is important

What is it with all these 70 and 80 year old who simply want to sit on Africa as a strong hold and keep us down forever...that 70 and 80 year old band are the cursed generation according to wole soyinka.

Same problem in Nigeria ...between Atiku and Jagaban they want to die in the cookie jar...how much wealth and power is enough?

At the end of the day ...Impunity will.go round .
OBJ abused power .......now BAT is abusing power...he will leave office one day and become a victim of this same impunity

For a U.S. undergraduate degree, students from most countries will need to provide biometric information (fingerprints and a photo) as part of the visa application process. This is a standard security measure for all non-immigrant visa applications.
This is why Bola Tinubu that graduated was the one that became an undergraduate not a female.
You cannot bypass the system in USA as you would here especially if you are an immigrant.

Excuse me sir , you can make any postulations but it appears the real history is not aligned with your position. See a simple Google search below.

Let's not change the history that happened before our eyes. Up till 1992 I remember nigeria had no biometrics passport as well as us schools did not use biometrics . It was only being used by crime fighting agencies in US. Except your point is that FBI and DEA had his fingerprints expectedly.

÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷====÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷
Biometric identification systems, specifically finger scanning, began to be implemented in US schools in the late 1990s. This was primarily to enhance security, improve operational efficiency, and manage student services more effectively. For instance, accurate identification in the cafeteria is crucial for proper reimbursement under federal meal programs.
Here's a more detailed look:
Late 1990s:
US schools started adopting biometric finger scanning, with some European schools following in the early 2000s.
1997:
The National Child Identification Program was launched, utilizing fingerprints to help locate missing children.
Early 2000s:
Free biometric ID kits were distributed to students in Texas.
Legislation:
Some states like Illinois have passed specific legislation regarding biometrics in schools, such as SB1702 in 2007 and SB2549 in 2005-2006.
Criminal Background Checks:
Laws like New York's "Safe Schools Against Violence in Education (SAVE)" law require biometric checks for school employees to ensure criminal history is reviewed.

Biometrics in 1979 !...Tinubu must have been the one who introduced Biometrics in 1979 as a bold, progressive and deft student leader. I have assumed indeed he entered school in 1979.

Why don't we concentrate on salvaging what is left of Nigeria from these politicians, No need to justify his certificate , its out there for anyone to believe what he or she wants to believe. Two people cannot be victims of a lie, the liar or liee must know the truth - One of them must know.

Inec is not complaining so make we all rest

These government people can lie heen,.....they have no conscience , so if they diverted the money, does it mean there was no process of monitoring the loans like normal people will do?

When they discovered the funds were diverted what was done


How did they give 1 farmer 6b , was that farmer farming a whole local,government ? .....these people are liars , they have a place reserved for znigerian politicians in hell

Impunity is the hallmark of this APC administration from Buhari to Tinubu.

The courts and most institutions are merging into the executive. The courts are no longer able to give direct and decisive judgements based on facts but now concentrate on Technicalities . A man steals but because he was not caught and presented in court through a certain process he is set free. The facts of the case is that the man stole , the proceedure maybe faulty but does not absolve the man from the crime of stealing.

I may not be a fan of Natasha but she should be protected and given fair hearing. The senate has bullied her and are just not ethical or moral and I dare to say legal in their grandstanding.

Today it is Natasha , tomorrow it may be you or your favoured politician and this is why Rule of law must prevail and not impunity.

What reasonable reason can the senate give for suspending her for 6 months and refusing her entry into the chambers.

Those supporting this rascality against Natasha are not aware impunity has no permanent address.

To be very candid , the legislators are not just smart, they should have given her a fair hearing, to bring all her evidence in an independent committee....it's harder to prove crime in Nigeria than to prove innocence . It would have been hard for Natasha to prove sexual harassment considering some of her utterances and conduct while the going was good with Akpabio. That way she would have had her full day in court and brought all her evidences which may likely have been her word against Akpabios. The senators were not smart to have railroaded her and this gives Natasha the winning hand. I believe they are bullying her because they know the truth and are protecting their leader in the senate of sychophants.

Peter Obi has been saying Nigeria should be more like Bangladesh.

After seeing the short video below of the terrible transport system in Bangladesh, it occurred to me that perhaps Obi does not mean well for this country.

Pity.

https://www.facebook.com/share/v/19mWHNyzjU/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Sir, see what AI says below , comparing Nigeria to Bangladesh....we have a lot to emulate from Bangladesh.

Peter Obi may not be wrong , from my assessment of AI results, he is right.

I think we are bugged down with crippling bad leadership and we ice it with tokenism and sensationalism.

Google is your friend ......use it.mso your post does not look shallow

AI Overview



Nigeria and Bangladesh, while both developing nations, exhibit significant differences in their economic trajectories and key development indicators. Nigeria, despite its larger landmass and population, faces challenges in achieving consistent economic growth, with its economy heavily reliant on oil and susceptible to price fluctuations. Conversely, Bangladesh has shown remarkable economic progress, particularly in industrialization and competitiveness, despite its smaller size and higher population density.
Here's a more detailed comparison:
Economy:
Nigeria:
The Nigerian economy is largely dependent on oil exports, leading to volatility and vulnerability to global oil price swings. This has resulted in inconsistent economic growth, high unemployment, and a struggling manufacturing sector.
Bangladesh:
Bangladesh has diversified its economy, experiencing growth in sectors like textiles, ready-made garments, and agriculture. This has allowed for more stable and consistent economic progress, with notable improvements in industrialization and competitiveness.
Key Development Indicators:
Life Expectancy:
Bangladesh has a significantly higher life expectancy at birth (70.65 years) compared to Nigeria (52.62 years).
Unemployment:
Nigeria has a much higher unemployment rate (23.90%) than Bangladesh (5.00%).
HIV/AIDS:
The prevalence of HIV/AIDS is also considerably higher in Nigeria (3.10%) compared to Bangladesh (0.10%).
Infant Mortality:
Nigeria experiences a higher infant mortality rate (74.09 deaths per 1,000 live births) than Bangladesh (45.67).
GDP Per Capita:
While both countries have relatively low GDP per capita, Nigeria's (approximately $2,800) is slightly higher than Bangladesh's (approximately $2,100). However, when considering GDP per capita adjusted for purchasing power parity (PPP), Bangladesh's is higher ($4,600) than Nigeria's ($6,000).
Other Factors:
Population Density: Bangladesh is significantly more densely populated than Nigeria.
Political Stability: Both countries have faced periods of political instability, but Bangladesh has seen more consistent progress in recent times.
Infrastructure: Nigeria faces significant underinvestment in infrastructure, while Bangladesh has been making strides in infrastructure development.
In essence, while Nigeria boasts a larger economy and landmass, Bangladesh has demonstrated greater economic dynamism and resilience in recent years, achieving significant progress in key development areas.

Impunity is deeper than what most people know .

In what capacity is the son of an ex president addressing FEC?

Did Buhari give Sagari the same honours?

FEC is a symbol of our National decision making structure.........nothing , I say nothing matters to these APC people...there is nothing to much for APC to desecrate!

The Project surely was and is still a bankable project; the only issue was the lack of Federal and state government support and the effect of politics. If there was an airstrip or light rail or good roads with scheduled bus service and security......Private folks would have taken it over.

The narrative that Nigeria is a broke country is a dumb narrative being propagated by the Government when it suits its officials.

To be clear , its not for broke people and they will never see the value

If only you knew the number of Nigerians who travel on holiday and how much they spend......you would see this was a no-brainer. Nigeria is just a dream killer and I'm sure Donald Duke will be heartbroken for daring to dream big. Nigeria has smart people , its the machinery of Government that has failed and broken down . Only purposeful and inclusive restructuring will fix it.

If that was how it worked...Buhari would have died since 2015 , no since 1986.

The people that are rejoicing over his death took the position because Buhari and his APC folks ruled and reigned like he would live forever...the rejoicing was spontaneous and it is in line with the parody of the people rejoicing when the righteous rule.........

I don't rejoice over people's misfortune but it does not take away the fact that the 8 years of Buhari were years of the locust and cancerworm

Softmirror:
I know that you will come up with the burial thing. One which has been clarified. There is no how there can be massacre of people and it will be so difficult to prove.

Sir / Ma....I see you did not comment on the faces and families of those killed at the toll gate....which is the crux of the matter...but it's ok .
Propaganda , lies, government spins , politics , influencing cannot change history........the pain and loss felt by victims , nor Judgement by the creator of heaven and earth shall never be tainted with lies..... Lies are a vapour.

Nobody will leave this dimension alive , we will all die one day. As long as most of us live we would remember the sequence and facts and the evil Buhari and Sanwoolu did supritending over opening fire on those people at Lekki toll gate and the denials.

He was the leader of the most populous black nation but died like a common fellow in a foreign land without honour . Many of his country men had no such basic and lowly opportunity at life.

I watched as the commissioner struggled to explain the 130 bodies with all the nin, bvn and facial recognition data....they don't need to explain further to man.........I just hope their families will not share in the karma.

No arguments but I saw your comment and for the umpteenth time I needed to clarify and bring out facts as the Lagos state instituted panel confirmed deaths at the toll gate and compensation was paid to the people not killed or shot at.

Recall they said it was not Nigerian soldiers, sanwo denied until army confirmed they were invited by him...army said they fired blanks until forensics confirmed they were live bullets...etc etc ...the truth ...is a bi**tch...you cannot hold her down.
