This electricity problem is getting worse everyday. Only God knows how much I've lost since January due to epileptic power. My company is located in the busiest and most commercial part of the city, yet we hardly enjoy 2 hours of electricity in a day. The price of diesel is still above the roof. The thing dey give me serious concern everyday. Tinubu you no try for this one at all. Many businesses are struggling and crumbling everyday due to poor power supply. For how long are we going to endure this nonsense? Someone jokingly said I should sell all my machines, then fold up the business and use the money to relocate with my family to Canada. I'm just tired, Olohun!

And they had to make her wear Tinubu's cap?
What happens to a cap that would symbolize intellect or leadership?
So much for forcing this failed ideology down the throat of people at the slightest chance.
Anyways, "Etiyemonu" translates to what please?

Funny how some states sit far below the North in internet usage, yet never miss a chance to label Northerners “illiterates.” Kano alone boasts about 9m subscribers, while one self-proclaimed hub of “the most educated” struggles to still fall below 1.3m.

So what exactly is stopping them, illiteracy or poverty?

Of course, any moment now they’ll claim it’s their people boosting the numbers in other states… as if their villages are empty and everyone else is just borrowing their Wi-Fi.

Just read up on the history of the Western Region.
I don't need to look for proof. I grew up in that era. Welcome to Western Region signboard was at Fadeyi, on Ikorodu Rd.

It hasn't worked...

Yet the British made it work somehow as a business empire and amalgamated the north and south for easier administration.


How did the British do it? If it worked then for them why is it now impossible to work now for us?


You guys should pls stop repeating old rythorics just because you have heard them been said for a long time that you are just spewing without being able to defend.


Nigeria has faced challenges since independence and self rule in 1960 but with effort and the right leadership Nigeria has potential to be one of the greatest nations on earth.

Until about 2 decades ago China faced worse challenges than Nigeria has.... no one gave up on China or advocated for the dissolution. Look at where they are today. Competing and arguably with a bigger economy than the US. The difference is visionary leadership.


Problems/challenges get solved by tackling and solving them not by running away.


Thank you!

More a smooth criminal like Gringory Obi who went to hide money in Panama under his daughter’s name.

Burob:
He forfeited part of the money he stole money from the US government, similar to Stella Oduah’s plea to return money she allegedly stole from the Nigerian government.

Burob:
Tinubu only returned part of the money he stole when he was the secretary of commerce abi?

Burob:
Wailer, what same thing did Tinubu do, did he steal money from the American treasury?

https://thenationonlineng.net/waec-boss-dissociates-council-from-state-performance-report/


“I want to say here that the ranking is completely false as it did not emanate from council, because there are many other things to be considered to arrive at such percentage and this is not part of our job.

The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has described as untrue, claims that it carried out ranking on performance of states in its recently released examination for school candidates.

Mr Patrick Areghan, WAEC’s Head of National Office, dismissed the claims, which he described as misleading, false and the handiwork of mischief maker.
Areghan, in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Saturday in Lagos, said that the report did not emanate from the council.

“We read from some social media that WAEC has rated performance of states in our recent West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE), presumably the 2022 examination for school candidates.

That's true but I don't see the need to rent.
Their choice though.

If you can blame Tinubu for insecurity is he the one directly killing or you’re blaming him just because he’s the president?

Now what about the so called god who claimed he controls everything? You won’t blame him for falling to control the killers ?

Putinofrussia:
Still posting fake news.WAEC has already debunked the news as scam.
Show us where WAEC ranked states in Ghana,
Sierra Leone,The Gambia,Liberia.
If you do that for only Liberia or any of the nations then you are right and WAEC is wrong by saying they don't rank states.

I did not see you blaming the god that boasted in your Bible that if he did not watch over the city the watch men watches in vain .

Look at the city he’s watching how it’s going .
The same god they’re going to vigil for will be there when they’re kpaing them and he does absolutely nothing about it .

Putinofrussia:

Are you still trying to force a scam that was exposed by WAEC?
You are just rolling in that dirty,small space of falsehood.
Show us where WAEC ranked states in Ghana,

Soon Peter Obi will be added to the list too.

Putinofrussia:
That is why AI says reports.
AI takes reports from blogs (full of lies except with verified source),social media(full of lies except with verified sources),newspapers (lies except verified by authentic sources)
etc but not from WAEC,the only authentic source who stated explicitly that their business doesn't include rankiing of states.

Mr Obi knew he was a disaster,he had to play some fast ones on the gullible ones but intelligent ones saw his folly.
Mr Obi,a disaster being packaged by tribalists.

Putinofrussia:
WAEC has never ranked states because they are in 5 African nations.
It was a paid for job by Mr Obi and his cohorts,I suppose.It went on for 10 years before the scam was exposed.
If you believe WAEC ranked states,post the ones for Ghana so we can even take you serious small.
WAEC did not rank states.

OP, you lied that the price of a bag of rice rose to N100,000 under Buhari.

That is a lie from the pit of hell.

The only regime under which the price of rice rose to N100,000 and above is the Tinubu administration.

Biodun556:
Under Buhari government rice farmers always come up with the stories that rain storm destroyed their farms on yearly bases. Buhari government do respond by giving them billions of naira and aids, and this was usually followed with increase in price of rice.

Under Buhari government, the price of bag of rice moved from 10,000 to like 90,000 despite outcry, the government never considered importation to check the excesses of the rice farmers. Journalist and media houses never made verification to ascertain whether rice farms were actually destroyed.

Under Tinubu government, I wonder why such stories never come up. This is because importation is allowed to check and balance the rice farmers activities. If they claim rain destroy their farms, importation would serve as alternative not money or aid.

The same thing applies to Dangote on cement matter. He usually increase price of cement since government stopped importation. He will always give excuses of market glut. Now the cement is 11000 naira plus.

Some two weeks back , Petrol was 734 naira per liter, people were relieve and hope. Then Dangote came up with claim that he can now meet local demand, government responded by stopping importation, shortly after that, Dangote increase price of Petrol to 834 per liter.

These are the evils we do to ourselves in Nigeria. Nothing should be left in the hands of local manufacturers. Importation should be allowed in all areas of the economy to serve as a check and balance.

I think Mr Obi or his ilk were the ones that lied of WAEC ranking of state for more than 10 years until people inquired and WAEC said they had never ranked states since their establishment because they are in 5 countries in Africa.
Some newspapers even carried this lie for years.What they cannot buy,they influence with money and lobbyists.So also was the award.
According to Prof Soludo,Mr Obi increased poverty to over 50%.
He shut all hospitals and schools in Anambra for 13 months and allowed a lot of people to be killed and thrown into the Izu or whatever river.He even put Anambra's money in Fidelity bank where he is a shareholder so he can make huge profit personally.That is an impeachable offence,
Mr Obi is a good man but a disaster in governance.
