So the bather is also dirty? I rest my case 😂😂😂

SeriouslySense:
English is sweet, I also want to learn the syntax's of our local languages.

💯

Ponmoalata:
US UK can use crease for their alligators. We dont care.

Our gators will continue to remain sharp on our trousers.

😂😂😂 does the British understand the words koboko, otaba, i wan go crash, do they even know pussy have another meaning here, do they care to understand the meaning of ukwu? Some of our people are making the same mistakes our forefathers made

KingOfAmebo:
As we long as we Nigerians understand it, f*ck what the British thinks. PERIOD...

Language is meant to be understood irrespective of how it is spoken, as long as we understand what is being said, GOOD...

Stop all this slave mentality...Does the British understand the meaning of AKARA and GARRI?...



That is one big scam our fooolish Nigerian politicians cannot stop, They colonized us and forced us to speak English yet require us to prove that we can speak the language we can speak to enter their country, Is that not madness? No be juju be that?...

This is why you cry like sick babies when results are out. Till 2027 we shall see, are you ready to bet? #2,000,000 Tinubu will win

yaroyaro619:
APC presidential primary was a Joke taken too far

When it's time for the General elections,
These same people will collect money from APC and queue behind Peter Obi

This is exactly what will happen in 2027 General elections

Where was your voice about growth when he was chosen to be the governor? Do not bite the finger that fed you

3kay945:
So because bad precedence has occurred, we should continue just because it was successful before? According to your logic!

When do you guys want this country to grow and compete with other functioning society.

When pls?

They can full authority if the Police give them go-ahead. No matter what they can't take full control of security issues. You made mention taking charge of elections that can also happen if the Police and INEC gives them the opportunity. If the governor is against the President the created security can't do anything

Saladdin:
Who said anything about creating a full-blown state security outfit? You have probably not grasped how that game should have been played. This is why governors ought to surround themselves with technocrats and intelligent people, and not use all political positions as a form of compensation.

The law does not stop any governor from creating pseudo-security organizations like; Vigilante groups, Amotekun, Forest Guards etc. What Fubara could have done was create one and call it something like Rivers Neighbourhood Community Watch. He should remove triggering words like Security, Police, Crime, Corps etc. from the name.

Once done he should make it known that they are meant to improve stability in their communities and assist the police, yes assist. Then he can explore every type of arms and security tools permitted at state level. Allow the NPF, NSCDC, NA etc to train them. In fact he should go above and beyond by sponsoring them outside for “training” and heavily invest in PR and make it known that they exist to foster peace.

Thereafter, he should make sure that these ones become present in every single state event and functions, station them in State schools, agencies and institutions. Then he should follow it up with an Executive Order that people seeking jobs and similar intent from the Rivers State Government have to obtain a clearance form from this outfit that would now have branches all over the state. This will increase their relevance and recognition. Then most importantly he should deploy them to polling booths in the recently concluded LG Elections, and he’ll have crystalized one of their functions in the mind of the people.

But all these I guess is Astrophysics right?

So when he Fubara enjoyed godfatherism to be a governor you people didn't remember that he wasn't qualified but because Wike deal with you people you are seeing Fubara as angel abi?

3kay945:
It is really pathetic especially when people keep glorifying it as if it is something to be proud of.

Later, same people will be comparing Nigeria with saner climes.

How will the desired development come when we the masses deliberately propagating Godfatherism.

State security? Una funny o, when state don't have power to have their security apparatus? This your type of politics can only be played on video game 😂 this is the same way you people pushed the man to his present problems

Saladdin:
His political career is completely finished. Na true SIMP this man be. This is what indecision cost him. He had two options: fight to the finish or quietly do your "yes sir, yes sir" and complete your eight years. Political fights are all or nothing, you don't do half-measure.

Duncan Mighty's music career too is gone. He should forget any singing gig from the state government again. Doing useless praise singing for a weak man. You see how Wike pampers his praise singers, they most likely even followed him to Abuja singing Nye demba, Nye demba for him.

If you wanted to fight your godfather (which was a bad decision anyway), you ought to have gone for the jugular, but you went halfway and backtracked. A very foolish move!

That was weakness and Wike smelt it. Dem no dey use clear eyes fight for village square. Wike is a very formidable and powerful politician & godfather with a well-oiled machinery that can easily bring down this governor. He knows where and how to pull the strings. When Fubara knows he can't fight, he ought to have piped low, because those elders who crafted the quote that when you dine with the devil, you use a long spoon. They came to that painful realization after lots of hard knocks.

On the other hand, you Fubara had one of the largest and deepest war chest in Nigeria. For God's sake, only Lagos, Delta and maybe Kano comes close to what this man has when it comes to state fund. This singular reason plus Wike's ruthlessness gained the president's respect. Tinubu himself respects a ruthless person who is not afraid of showing it at any time.

You could have used that to compensate for your weaknesses and let money FLOW to the right places, surgically dismantle the machinery as swiftly as possible. And had he fought bravely, he clearly had the people's support and wherever he goes most Riverians will follow.

Create a state security apparatus, let the commanders be loyal to you and when election comes, release one long press statement on how those state-security officials need to be present in every polling unit. Then you buy permissible arms, tasers and handcuffs for them. FUND them well, cover every inch of the state that day, switch off your phone while the security outfit do their job. Then give a prior public announcement and firm instruction that whoever engages in malpractice would be arrested, locked up and tried. Then you clearly demonstrate it with the LG election. LOCK THEM UP and follow it up with a speedy court trial. The rest will be very scared to engage in any malpractice.

Follow this up by lobbying to get officials from two or three major countries to specifically come to Rivers to monitor the election! While at this, ensure you pay for sufficient media time in international broadcasting stations let it be aired, and make sure all your ex-Oga's shady files are with you, and have CC'ed the right quarters with copies of it.

While you do this, move to another party, fund it, sponsor candidates and make a public example of few people who fall out of line, then you would see as others will fall in line.

Then even if Wike won, with a big IF, it would have be a pyrrhic victory for him. But as it is now, the Emperor of Rivers has won and he will so deal with you on all fronts. Be grateful if you don't do jail time!

It's iro pronounced like wrapper

geoworldedu:
'Oniro' the greatest liar of 'Iro' (Liar land) was dethroned. Come 2027, let us dethrone the Emilokan, the greatest 'Tribulation' of Nigeria Land.

Many of the citizens like you, are always complaining, the time you are suppose to use to improve your life you are complaining and always looking for what to complain on

Oyindamolah:
Yes, roads matter. Infrastructure matters. Development matters. Nobody argues against that. But we also have to be honest: building roads on mountains or commissioning massive projects does not automatically mean the average Nigerian is feeling progress.

A good engineer knows that a structure is only successful when it solves the actual problem of the people using it.

What is the value of a beautiful highway when citizens can barely afford transportation on it? What is the value of prestige roads when businesses are shutting down because of power costs, inflation, and economic pressure? Development is not just about concrete and asphalt—it is about functionality.

The Lagos–Badagry road absolutely deserves attention. It is a major economic corridor and a gateway into Nigeria. But governance should not depend on “tag the President and hope.” Systems should work without citizens begging for basic infrastructure.

A nation should not run like a WhatsApp customer care line where people must tag the President before potholes are fixed.

Leadership is not measured only by how many roads are built, but by how sustainably lives are improved—stable electricity, affordable food, security, jobs, healthcare, and policies that reduce suffering.

No President should be treated like a messiah, because governance is not worship; it is responsibility.

As engineers, we know that even the strongest bridge can fail if the foundation is weak. Nigeria’s challenge is not just roads—it is systems, accountability, and long-term planning.

So yes, fix the roads. Build more roads. We need them.

But let us not confuse construction with complete governance. A nation is not transformed by projects alone; it is transformed when the people themselves can genuinely feel the difference in their daily lives.

Since it's God giving don't buy the equipment too, i don't understand the school you people attended o, when the man signed the agreement before moving in didn't he read it? Don't be foolish always get some sense

tesseract:
There is a saying; na from clap Dem dey take enter dance. This is how they start, before you know it they move to private individuals, they are using this to test the waters.

You refuse to provide steady electricity and you have the guts to impose a levy on someone who has decided to provide electricity for themselves using God given natural sunlight, simply because he lives in a public housing estate which he has purchased? Even satan will be impressed at this level of wickedness.

You too will go one day so death is not a thing of mockery try to grow up and get sense

The Landlord should just evict the tenant and take over the building without delay. That is one way people try to take over people's properties

AI can occupy any post. For the online AI is needed why few people are needed offline don't forget it's an online business

Gerrard59:
Including marketing?

AI is gradually taking people's jobs and we think it's normal again? In 10 years time AI will take at least 40% of the available jobs

Movie? Are you for real? How old are you? Bet it America will not dare to go the invasion. You guys talk like children

Bluearrow:
Go watch the movie "we were soldiers"
Iran is just about to sacrifice 1 million troops for nothing. If America tell u they are coming by land, know they are coming by air. America said they will enter Libya by air, they entered through water. A combination of America & Israeli airforce will wipe out these troops within a blink.

Ask the same Makinde the money they gave him for the victims of gas explosion why has he be hiding it since over a year

drauj:
If we had politicians of principle, Makinde and Bala Muhammed should be the Presidential and vice presidential candidates of the PDP.

They don't have to defeat PBAT.

Politics of principle has become obsolete.

That is what they normally use to deceive people before going there

happney65:
I don't think you even said anything about law making. You are going to make laws and that is primarily the job of a lawmaker

The rest is sakamanje

I wish you best of luck sha

Let the people in your constituency determine your faith we are not in your area and those people are the one's that knows you, your attitude and the type of person that you are don't come and sell yourself to us and after the people have rejected you maybe due to your attitude or way of life the people here will be saying they are not allowing youths

The same way he kept the money meant for gas explosion victims abi? When someone is on your side you try all things possible to look away from their stupid and corrupt behaviours

FORWARDEVERLY:
His words made me shed a tear ..
The country is in a state of comatose and instead of elected officials to stand with the people and call out the government at the center for not being up and running.. instead almost all elected officials has joined the party of the government in the centre and eligible voters watch on without consign or hope..
A shame.

Keep your tears till 2027 we will drink it🤪

sirchim:
Una do pass like this 2023, but THIEFNIBU Baban Baban BARAWOO still collect. If you know, your Mama born you well carry go.

He has been using it but he will be hiding it to the public he isn't different from a thief 😂

adefitim:
I can't wait for that day Peter Obi will use the road.... e go receive the dragging of his life that day.



It will take one hell of courage before his handler will post it online

Why seek explanation for what you will argue about? Religion is personal believe follow your believe and don't mind those that believe that it is not your business and it is not in your power to judge others. Leave it for Jesus and God why are you sick because of other people's choice of faith

muyico:
Less concern
I'm not member!
But my question to you
Why moulding statu of Jesus Christ and Mary ?? Still worship it like idol worshipper doing?? Where in d Bible can you quote it for me?? Why begging Mary to help you beg Jesus Christ to forgive you?? Alot atrocities baffling in that church

Oga try to sit your wife down and explain everything to her, she will definitely want a better future for her children. Most times we men just think and conclude alone when we are not the only person in the marriage. If you have been explaining it to her she would have brought the idea of coal pot before now

Rest well Mama, she's a very good woman to my family

These are ordinary soldiers, not special forces.

Our special forces are in rags too. Cut and join kits.

Do you know what a country to country relations is? Do you know that Burkina Faso Embassy is still open in Nigeria? The way some of you reason like ant self, so let's assume you're in Tuggar's position you will go and beg? When the aircraft has been cleared? You this people don't seems to amaze me, ordinary your own family you have failed as a man but you're on Nairaland typing rubbish

tishbite41:
So, Tuggar went to Faso to threaten them?!
Sometimes, you should use your brain cells

You will realized it was the same guy that initiated the date not the lady, so a date is a way to agree to start relationship with someone
