Willy2025: But Nigeria is not solely financing the Calabar coastal highway. The federal government is only to provide 25% equity funding while the contractor provides the remaining. It is a public private project of which the contractor is expected to recoup his money through tollgates. Why is Donald Duke speaking from the position of ignorance?
Walz001: We need regional government as it stands Security is essential in all states and we need to start working on ourself for protection if not
the problem with regional government is for the north , they will use it as a weapon to invade other regions. With most of their ideology backed by Islam which calls for death to unbelievers (Christians and traditionalist) they will facilitate bandits ( Islamic terrorists) to attack other regions efficiently. We have governors in other regions that are selfish and do not work for the people . All they care is self and their generation which they will loot resources instead of beefing the security of citizens
how is it bad news for them ? Are they against the welfare of soldiers ? Justice crack the one who pushed for increment in welfare of soldiers is he not an obidient? This move proves that Tinubu is nothing more than a reactionary president. He reacts to things that will undermine his forthcoming 2nd tenure which is bad for us. We need a proactive president not one who spends more on propaganda
Lastmankc: I am a staunch critic of Tinubu. But for this,I give him kudos.
I don't he is living in a bubble isolated from the happenings in Nigeria Why is he increasing it now when election is few months away ? Doctors and other healthcare workers are about to go on strike and he has not increased their salaries. He has not solved the problem of electricity and now he's planning on removing the subsidy on it He is pushing for taxation on Nigerians when we have natural resources and in accounted monies stolen by individuals like former Gov TA of Abia State , Gov okezie , Gov Orji Uzor whose EFCC cases have miraculously died off. Sometimes I wish I was born elsewhere as anyone born into low class in Nigeria is done
calling on a known racist (against blacks) and pedophile shield won't save us . Protest against the government by hitting the street with your members. Stop waiting for imperialists, people who colluded with our brothers to steal our resources. Until we allow God to usis to rescue Nigeria ,all is lost.
1. The husband shouldn't have gone there to ridicule himself 2. He should have waited for his wife to come back home and then deal with her decisively.
These are many reasons I made up my mind to stay away from church and not from God. 1. A church woman prioritise church and church gathering than her family and husband and the church see nothing wrong in it or perhaps encourage such.
2. The same church this woman crave for are the same people who ridicule her and take a video of these scenario and posted it on the internet.
3. One could here hear from the background where some women recorded the video and promised to post and make content of it on social media without considering the plight of their affected member.
With these I listed above, one could ask what does the church teaches?
I will rather join a secret organisation where welfare of its members are paramount and interest are protected than to be in a church where my co-members will make a mockery of me and take a video of me in a situation like this to make content on social media
Do not forsake the gathering of brethren You cannot serve God without a gathering like church. Go out there and find one that is genuine.
JASONjnr: You can't comfortably lie to yourself that Obi isn't their preferred candidate. After all, he divided Anambra people along other Christian faithfuls....He made Catholics more powerful and gave them appointments in his government.
The same bishops who distanced themselves from other bishops that supported Tinubu in the last general elections...Now want to have a say and be heard.
Catholic heads are politicians and they played early politics that created democracy. But then, Tinubu is more advan6tgan what they're offering today.
sometimes I wonder why you lots do this Are you happy with how Nigerians are suffering under the current administration? Doctors will soon go on strike It's absurd
MaxInDHouse: Jesus didn't send his disciples to go out ARGUING or DEBATING {Titus 3:9} with intolerant religionists rather what he said is this:
Wherever you enter into a house, say first: ‘May this house have peace.’ And if a friend of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if there is not, it will return to you. Luke 10:5-6
So there is no reason debating Muslims if anyone has something worthwhile to preach or teach about his religion let him or her go out there and talk to whoever will listen.
there is a need to debate them and expose the falsehood in their religion, do you know how many we've converted into christainity from such debates ?
The worst thing to happen to Islam is the internet now everyone will watch , hear and know their violent acts towards anyone who doesn't believe or converts to christainity from their religion
If what she is wearing is bad in a bank, then it is bad in every other public space including a club. But people will approve of the outfit in a club and condemn the same outfit in a bank. The people who are not meant to see her like this in a bank are equally not meant to see her like this on her way to a club or in the club. But our society is promoting double standards.
I feel like hugging you Hypocrites and double standards
Willy2025: Many military operations against boko haram and bandits are always sabotaged by some evil elements within the military. That's why they always fall into ambush in a very unlikely places and their camps vulnerable. This is because some of the soldiers sell critical information to the terrorists who in turn capitalised on these to launch surprise attacks. This saboteur must be fished out at all costs.
with the lowest rank earning ₦100,000 what would you expect ? Sabotage in and outside of the military will be the order of the day Corruption Religious fanaticism
Kalulu44: So this man is still cashing out. . In 2005, while I was in Benin. An announcement via radio and tv ads that pastor Chris is coming to Benin in a month time. My Landlord's wife who was paralyzed by half of her body was so optimistic that her healing is here after hearing all the wonders Pastor Chris has been doing on TV. . From the day the announcement was made, this woman can't stop singing and praising God for bringing Pastor Chris closer to her. It was a 5 day program. On the first day according to her children who took her to the crusade ground. They placed their mother who was in a wheelchair at the front where pastor Chris can see her very well. When it's time for healing and deliverance, pastor Chris will come down to where all according to them sick people are including this my Landlord's wife. On each occasion he will bypass her and go heal people that after the 5 day crusade, nobody that I know in Benin or heard said they knew this and that person that was healed. . Honestly! I too was waiting to see him heal my Landlord's wife to confirm his God giving power. But alas it was all fake. According to her children, for that straight 5 days, so they put her in front and so pastor Chris always bypass her till the program ended. The kind swear our landlady's family and neighbors swear for pastor Chris eh. On my part, not that I even believe in this god of men in the first place. But I wanted to use our landlady's healing to confirm something, but alas my expectations were dashed. . Is it today we have been hearing they arrange people for their miracles. Abeg make pastor Chris park one place jor
you only believe in God if he demonstrated his power to you right ? Have you made a conscious effort to find him? If you do with all your heart , you will. God can heal and has been healing even before Pastor Chris was born and will continue after he's dead . He healed me ( not pastor Chris)
mrvitalis: No book ooh just different YouTube videos Ai conversation Google search just trying to understand why western and asian nations work and African nations don’t seem to work
Wow Please can you share with me the YouTube channels you interact with Are you on x ? So I can follow .
mrvitalis: Majority of Nigerians are poorly educated on what governance entails
Build them road and fine airport if you add rail they are glad
They don’t care about how those projects was funded is it viable ? What’s the fiscal implications of the funding ?
I called it the “ cocoa-house syndrome “ or legacy project syndrome
We are people who see governance as physical infrastructure anything else is irrelevant This have made the political class to do everything to build legacy physical projects to point to that I built this
Someone was talking about Peter and his money saved that why didn’t he build infrastructure more
I explained what is called delayed gratification
Peter obi left about $350 billion dollars as saving if Willy Obiano did same that’s $700 million dollars say soludo did same that would be $875 million dollars in savings
Say the that money was used to subscribe Nigeria Euro bond at 6.5% yearly that’s $56 million dollars yearly that’s almost 80 billion in sustained guaranteed revenue Now this 80 billion is what u use to build feel good infrastructure
Any idiot can build infrastructure if money is available even Someone like wike is doing it in Abuja
The real issues in government is making sure funds are available or creating path for future funds to be available without causing fiscal harm to the balance shit
Sure we want good roads ,rails ,bridges and the rest but can we afford it ? This things are not something u borrow money to build because they would never be able to generate enough income to repay the loan that leads to devaluation
Same way you want a Gwagon ,private jets ,house in Ikoyi but if you get a 5 billion naira loan today that you would start paying back in 5 years ,would you buy those things ? Or invest to make profit to be able to repay the loan then buy your dream car and house ?
So in terms of real Governance Peter Obi is the best governor in Nigerian History
is there any book you read that gave you this leadership accumen ? I need it please
Glimpsetv: In the nighttime video, a South African man walks through the streets while filming and speaking to the camera. He shows various spots to illustrate his point.
He says: “Business is dying in South Africa. Nobody is making money. Africans have left, and now we have our own businesses. It’s very clean, but it’s also very quiet.”
(Here "Africans" refers to foreign African nationals — immigrants and traders from other African countries such as Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, and others who operated businesses, shops, and stalls in the area.)
He points the camera toward a food stall with well-grilled chicken and other meats on display, but notes there are no customers around. He then pans to an empty club area, saying it used to be bubbling and packed at this time, but now it’s completely quiet because the people (foreign Africans) who used to make the place busy have gone.
He continues: “Around this time on a normal Saturday, you couldn’t even get through this street because it would be packed. But look at it now.”
The man adds that it will even be worse in the coming weeks because more foreigners will leave.
Purpose of the video: The video is a direct on-the-ground complaint about the economic decline in the area. The man is showing the visible emptiness — quiet streets, idle food vendors with grilled chicken but no buyers, and a once-lively club now deserted — to demonstrate how the departure of foreign African nationals (who drove much of the customer traffic and hustle) has hurt local businesses. He warns that the situation will deteriorate further as more foreigners leave.
nlfpmod: Here are photos and videos from the burial of Joel Toba Ajiboye, Lagos NURTW organising secretary, who was killed by gunmen in Fadeyi on 14 July. The burial held on the 21st of July 2026 drew a large crowd of mourners in Ketu.
he spoke the truth but that does not cover his atrocities But I trust APC trolls , they will use this to link it with obidients and Peter Obi. It's sad to see My fellow Nigerians display their tribalism over this
He made a video on his YouTube channel calling on anyone who doesn't vote Obi as being senseless.
Even now, there's a thread on FP where obidients are now claiming he never raped the girl and that it was consensual and the reason the girl killed herself was because the money they claimed he paid her was not sufficient.
You see the kind of reasoning they are now applying for why the girl killed herself ?
These are the same set of people that defended Evans and started a hashtag on twitter demanding he be set free.
I have given up totally on these people.
Their tribalism is just too much that they will side with a rapist because he is one of them.
nairalanda1: Revenue from oil and other resources at the moment can't reach 200 billion dollars. We need something close to about 600-800 billion dollars or more annually before we can live the life we want to live.
Also, again, we do not set the prices.
Note that I don't always say tax, I also say that we should , I repeat, we should, become an industrial nation, because if we use our resources to make exportable goods and services, we can control the price of what we sell, which would make us rich.
It's that simple.
Oil right now, even without corruption, cannot fund our economy adequately
NOTE THAT I DID NOT SAY CORRUPTION NO DEY. But it takes time to recover stolen money, and we need things right now.
Taxes, or we borrow and borrow , and borrow.
By everyone, not by the rich. We've tried the rich people pay more method for electricity. It's not working because the revenue is not enough to ofsett losses from the bands where people pay below cost reflective tarrifs.
By everyone. Fair is far. Rich can pay a higher rate than the poor.
We need to pay more in tax as a nation, otherwise we just keep shut when government borrows again.
Sorry, but not this old line again. Not because it is not true, but because it has been said over and over again since independence...meaning you guys are not ready to remove them from office yet.
we don't need to pay tax we need to cut down in the cost on governance Use our resources adequately.
