20k can add to what a parent is giving to the student and support them monthly.

If a parent is giving 20k before to their student and they always complain of hunger. FG giving them 20k more to make 40k is a good thing as this will at least make things better for them.

If I go on Twitter today and say I want to do giveaway of 20k for students, almost 90% of student will drop account.

I understand your point, but what I'm trying to let you know is whatever Tinubu is trying to achieve with this 20k payment is so small compared to the damage he has done, that the effort is looking almost insignificant.

In 2005 when I was in Unilag with my younger brother, if I'm sent 20k the money could last almost a month for the both of us taking care of all our needs, in fact the first time I was sent 30k it was almost like 300k value in my account, I was actually feeding a friend who was broke at the time for weeks from the same money after sharing with my brother ...

I'm not putting all the blame on Tinubu but he further compounded it in just less than a year...

I'm not saying 20k is too small or too big but I can tell you 20k in present day Nigeria isn't what it used to be in value before Tinubu came onboard

Goke7:
it's to supplement the student expenses or do you expect the govt to feed the students for the entire month?

Tinubu vs The North...

LegendHero:
No it hasn’t solved all the problems. Nigeria problem cannot be solved in a day.

However, this will solve the problem of several hundred thousands of students whose parent cannot afford to pay their school fees.

It will put 240k per annum in the account of those students for upkeep.

This is a good step in the right direction.

20k can't even feed a student well for 2weeks, you've lost the value of 20k in Nigeria since you don't even stay in Nigeria, I believe same thing with Tinubu and his advisers because of how far they are from the people while in governance...

Like when Ngige said 19k can take care of a family of 4 for a full month...

20k can't even buy you 3 paints of beans...

LegendHero:
.

So this has solved all the problems of Nigeria?

Especially the ones Tinubu caused?

Amalekki:
Haaa, Mr Village Intelligentsia ... you went back to this post? Confused or just slow?

Yeah, I did, I hate laughing at people who are suffering, so I had to modify the post...

It is just better I speak the truth in such cases...

Amalekki:
Because in your own case nobody takes you serious because you just dey pollute the air on top nothing. You don't have any liver to leave Nigeria, heck you can't even leave Lagos. Your night buses are there daily for all to see

But you people are the one wailing up and down because of the same Tinubu....

Coolestguy2023:
PBAT should just declare a state of emergency in Kano and Kaduna make soldiers deal with all those illiterates on the street. He should man up and should not give a f about the northerners.
Since it's likely he will not get a second term, he should disintegrate the country make everyone go answer him papa name.
This protest has showns the level of hypocrisy of the northerners and the supposed ally they are is fake and unreliable

I thought you people said Igbos are the problem of Nigeria?

So you want to now divide Nigeria because Tinubu has now been rejected by the north?

If the meeting is not to meet the protesters demand, then....

banku:
Anybody but a leader from the same West that made most of Nigeria's richest men.

This has gone beyond politics. It is boiling hatred for Yoruba on their land. There must be a dialogue. Even if we separate, this anger will boil over the borders.

It is either they get what they want by any means necessary or give it to anyone but Yoruba. Even Yea For Abacha, the most brutal dictator Nigeria has ever produced.

We have to go back to the drawing board.

Tinubu, Tinubu brought tribalism into his politics for his selfish ambition, sadly some Yorubas bought deeply into it, while a large percentage sat on the fence and watched him do the damage, while a few opposed and spoke out but were shouted upon, hated and even called Omoale...

Now the selfish purpose of Tinubu is in full glare coated in tribalism, that's why you will even ask such a question in the first place...

Tinubu is not the first Yoruba president, OBJ played national politics and tried to carry every region along with lesser selfish interest unlike Tinubu, and he didn't play tribal politics ...


I warned about this during the elections, they didn't listen...

To re-steal it again?

The curfew will work if it will solve the protesters demands, if not....

They were begging the military guys to oust Tinubu from office...

Lovenorth:
I love my KD. Tinubu doesn't know that we are not afraid of soldiers. We are not weaklings to be toy with like South East

When UGM start killing soldiers in the south east, you will be the first to start shouting up and down while the coward will be missing from all your comments, you won't call them cowards that time because you know they are not...

What exactly do you people want from the Igbos? Igbos do something, you blame Igbos, Igbos don't do something, you still blame them, what do you you people want from the Igbos?

It is well

He should have enrolled to participate in the Paris Olympics, I heard Nigeria had only 1 participant for boxing who was disqualified.

He would have being aiming for gold in paris instead of aiming for prison in Asaba

Salewa97:
What a sight! Waving foreign flags instead of demanding accountability from our leaders.

Just shows how confused our protests have become. Nigeria needs genuine voices, not misguided displays.

Which of your leaders, Tinubu, Shettima or Akpabio?

If your leaders have done even 10% of what they promised to do during election, maybe those people will be holding Nigeria flag and shouting your leader's names in solidarity...

madridguy:
Nothing is wrong with Nigeria, it is we Nigerians that we need to check ourselves and start doing the right thing. We all have the syndrome of me, myself and myself.

If majority of us can do away with greediness that we call smartness within a year the positive result we will see will be marvellous.

Recently, a friend of mine in the food industry told me something. He said a local government chairman contacted one of his customers " A big supplier " and said they will pay so so amount into his account to supply so so amount of grains,the supplier agreed. Later in the day, the chairman called him that if they pay 100 naira into his account, he should only supply grains of 18 naira so the remaining 82 naira should be return back to him in a special account he will provide.

The supplier declined and ask the chairman to go and look for another supplier for his shady deals.
Funny thing is that this chairman is part of the new chairman Tinubu fought for their autonomy for... Now tell me what do you think such person will be doing with money when it start coming monthly.

I am surprised our media is not covering the mess in our health sector especially in the government owns general hospitals. The doctors there are so wicked that they will deliberate ask you to go for same test like three or four times and they will still be saying we have not seeing what we are looking for.
If you mistakenly go to other lab and not the one the doctor ask you to go, you just dash the lab the money because the result will not be accepted.

Same doctors will steal every drugs the government, NGO and big pharmaceutical companies donated for accident victims " emergency cases " and pack everything to their private hospitals and same person will come out tomorrow to blame others.

And you keep supporting a man like Tinubu who is behaving exactly like the local goverent chairman you are accusing because of tribal affiliation...

Not all Nigerians are bad, it is partly people like you that have kept Nigeria the way it is...

Chinkoalhaji34:
So, hunger protesters don dey embarrass army officers now?

I wonder if Peter Obi don dey train them for this kind wahala.

If na to embarrass our security forces, e be like say dem don collect plenty lessons from him.

Instead of looking for solution, na only protest we dey see.

PandoraObi:
Bitter grievingory Obi people are bereaved monkeys

Goodnewsforlife:
we already know the Igbos were only hiding under protest, what they want is to remove tinubu by fire by force

Is it that you guys are so afraid of the north, the same north you guys claimed voted for Tinubu are the same people begging the army to overthrow Tinubu and you are blaming Igbos for instigating them?

So Igbos could not instigate them to vote Peter Obi but Igbos can insitigate them to remove Tinubu?

Which one is harder to you guys?

Look at way you guys are behaving now, and you expect and average Igbo man to be happy sharing country with people like you...

I dey enjoy this our foreign ministry PR under Tinubu, like the one they did to South Africa during the nations cup, now this, as I dey read the letter the thing just dey sweet me...

No be only dem sabi give instruction to their citizens on safety precaution while indirectly tarnishing the image of the host country to their citizens, we sef fit do am ...

You guys are lazy, you can start drilling and refining the fuel you consume at your backyard.


Zombie apc

They will tell you that there is crude oil in every part of Nigeria, that Nigerians are just very lazy to go to their backyards to drill and refine their own , that they keep waiting for government to do everything for them....

The kind of human beings that support Tinubu

numericalguy:
Yet IIG0S wiped out the entire Fulanis living in their midst before the war

Evidence to your claim please...

Kilometres:
Mumu think say him don talk something sensible.

Over there, you don't even need to loot shop before getting shot... Police can shoot you simply because of the colour of your skin

And does that make it normal to shoot someone because of skin color ?

We are talking about human rights here and you are bringing racism into it, the police killing fellow Africans here because of looted goods are doing what?

The way some of you talk sha...

Well, if speaking the truth means mumu to you, that's your own problem not mine because I'm not a mumu, I'm only telling you the truth...

Obiedun:
Continue wailing. Continue.

If speaking the truth means wailing to you, that's your problem, not mine...

Bebigiby1:
Don’t mind favor914, one thing is certain if Nigerians decide to allow tribal sentiments to continue to divide them and they fail to push for an end to the bad corrupt government, when Tinubu finally destroys Nigeria’s economy completely, no one will escape the consequences whether you are living within the country or outside the country as we all have relatives in Nigeria….

The way some of them reason is something else...

damoobaba:
SLAVE MENTALITY, they will look for any excuse to defend what they know little or nothing about.

To people like you, the white man CAN NEVER BE WRONG.

nothing like slave mentality here, the government can still document all the looted items and replace them and also get as much people arrested after the looting but can the government replace a life after killing them?

Obiedun:
You are jobless. Look for job. See the way you are quoting different people.

So because I have your time means I am jobless?

Sorry ehn, you are wrong...

If the truth is paining you that will not stop me from telling you...

Obiedun:
You said hunger caused the looting in Nigeria, what causes this one?

yarimo:
99.9 % of those looting in that place are criminal Obidients that ran way from Nigeria always good at spoiling Nigeria's image

madridguy:
Obidence would term them as APC govt sponsored thugs if na Nigeria.

Sonnobax15:

Our beloved saner climeS

So looting na general underwear wey every country dey wear?

Listen to yourselves, the major difference here is that the police is not shooting them like they are doing in Nigeria...

No one justifies the looting but what they are looting does it worth the life of a single human being?

And arrests can easily be made instead of killing them...

Goodnewsforlife:
anyone who is mischievous is Igbo

Get that fact n ask sheu sanni n his fellow northerners

Go n check out his tweet n article about d protest, he categorically mentioned south east

U Igbos don cast

So Shehu Sanni does not tell lies because he is who?

The Igbos, spoke the truth about Buhari and also Tinubu...

So speaking the truth is a strong attributes of Igbos....

nairalanda1:
It probably will. There are a host of encrypted apps and messenger systems..Facebook has even made it easier to share information for people in dictator ruled countries

Abacha might be able to limit leaks by limiting the internet, but then there is the problem of VPN

Remember how buhari tried to knock of Twitter from Nigeria? It did not work largely because of VPN.

Plus the tinubu speech was probably released overnight for publishing in today's papers It just takes a journo a few seonds to snap the page and pass it on via telegram or any encrypted app. Nothing can be done, nothing by tinubu or his agents without them shutting down the internet before the speech.

And with the way the internet is globally connected, the person leaking the speech may even be doing it remotely from outside Nigeria, or masking their presence

Heck, if the USA can't stop leaks, wherinis Nigeria?

You are talking of national security I am talking about cabinet security....
