With all due respect ma, you disrespected a sitting governor and you should apologize to him and the people of osun state

If you consider what Mrs. Tinubu did as disrespectful, then Governor Adeleke brought it upon himself. Truth be told, Adeleke doesn’t know how to comport himself in public. He is a governor, for crying out loud — why does he always like to present himself as an entertainer, a needless spectacle? Governor Adeleke’s public conduct lacks decorum; it is unbecoming of the office he occupies. There is a time and place for everything — a time to dance, a time to sing — and he should know when to get serious with the business of governance. Mr. Adeleke often comes across as an irresponsible and unserious person. If Mrs. Oluremi Tinubu actually disrespected him, then he deserves it.

Not Arabs. Muslims. It's only a matter of time. even if it's 50 years or 100 years from now.

Pharaoh did worse, where is he today. Enjoy the pharaonic reign. But remember that all the enjoyment will not save you for a second when the punishment arrives.

Which yeye Muslims — association of terrorists? You'll all be destroyed,believe it or not! It's even funny you made a reference to Pharaoh — was it your "anobi" or Muslims that defeated Pharaoh?

They are only inviting death and destruction on their heads. Jolani and his ragtag army are nothing but pure Islamic terrorists. I hope Trump is listening. You don't romance or pamper terrorists; you destroy them,mercilessly!

Lagos,Rivers,and Kano are already locked down.

You have no idea the wars England and France fought to have Canada and USA so don't be deceived by Trump's 51st state. Canada is the second biggest country in the world and while they are dependent on the US economy, that is a wrong comparison to make.

Laughable — trust me,you don't know what you're saying! I won't even engage you.

In the event of a full blown conventional war between Nigeria and Burkina Faso,it's just a matter of few days for the Burkinable military to capitulate, regardless of whatever supports they may have from Russia. This is because the difference between the Armies is ocean-wide. I laugh when some people think Burkina Faso as a country is in any position to tango militarily with Nigeria! It's like saying Cambodia stands any chance against the US,militarily! The whole military arsenal of Burkina Faso is not bigger than what Nigeria has at 2nd mechanised division,Ibadan.

Tsarbomba:
Let me be blunt.

If the intelligence leaking from Cotonou is correct that Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger (under the AES banner) were actively involved in financing, training, or encouraging the mercenaries who tried to overthrow President Talon last week then the young captains have just committed the single biggest strategic blunder of their revolutions. They did not just attack Benin.
They attacked Nigeria by proxy.

Consider the reality on the ground:
Benin is Nigeria’s most sensitive western flank. Any regime in Cotonou that is hostile to Abuja automatically becomes an existential threat to Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, and the entire southwest.

Nigeria currently supplies roughly 70–80 % of Benin’s electricity through the Maria Gleta power plant and the West African Power Pool. One phone call from Abuja can plunge the entire country into darkness.
Cotonou Port handles a significant percentage of goods destined for northern Nigeria. Disrupt Benin, and you disrupt Nigeria’s supply chain.
Over ten million Nigerian citizens and people of Yoruba descent live, work, or trade daily across that border. An unstable Benin equals millions of refugees and economic hemorrhage for Nigeria.

Nigeria has remained remarkably restrained so far, but restraint should never be mistaken for weakness. When Nigeria decides to act, it does not send strongly worded letters. It sends divisions.
Russia, Wagner (or Africa Corps), and whatever support AES currently enjoys will evaporate the moment American, British, and French satellites start beaming real-time intelligence to Abuja and the U.S. Africa Command adjusts its posture. No one in Moscow is willing to die on a Sahelian hill for Cotonou.

Captain Traoré, have inspired millions by standing up to Paris and refusing IMF blackmail. But revolutions that survive are the ones led by men who know which battles to fight and which doors never to open.
Benin is that door.
They should Re-focus the alliance northward where you face no serious opposition
Because if Nigeria is forced to intervene, it will not be a limited police action. It will be swift, overwhelming, and irreversible.
And when the dust settles, the only thing left of the AES dream will be history lessons about how pride and overreach destroyed a beautiful revolution.

They should Choose wisely.!

Well said. Benin Republic is widely regarded by Nigerians as “the unofficial 37th state of Nigeria.” Benin Republic is to Nigeria what Canada is to the United States.

Hmmmm.....these people and dirty money!

Where does MTN generate VAT and where is it remitted? Just bold your answer. You just copy textbook definition that is NOT applicable in Nigeria. This is the problem with our education ... theory without application.

The VAT MTN generates in Maiduguri is collected in Lagos. So, how is Lagos the more productive State? The imports that are going to Onitsha is VATed in Apapa, what is Anambra stake in it? The VAT NNPC generates in Olibiru is collected in Abuja, so tell me how your TEXTBOOK definition makes sense.

Gibberish! Oyo State alone generates more VAT than all five South-East states combined. Are you saying that the VAT MTN generates in Maiduguri is collected in Oyo State too, or that imports going to Onitsha are also VAT-assessed in Oyo State?

If your argument is that Lagos generates so much VAT because most companies have their headquarters there, is that why Oyo State generates more VAT than all the South-East states combined? I deliberately left out Ogun State for obvious reasons. Lol! I explained what drives high VAT generation, but you ignorantly described it as a “textbook definition.” Look, man, there are no two ways about it: VAT reflects the purchasing power and the economic activity of the people in the area where it is generated. That’s just the truth!

You can’t be shutting down businesses every Monday in your region while indulging in anti-social and anti-economic activities and still expect your region to do well economically. Heck no — data doesn’t lie, man! Almost all your villages are deserted — everybody is in Lagos and other South Western states— and here you are arguing about VAT! Why do you think your people are labelled "economic migrants" in Nigeria?

Chinedu,if your region were truly economically viable, you wouldn’t see so many of your people relocating to other parts of the country in search of better prospects.

Villagers indeed! Na every small thing dey freak dem!

STILL BEGGING THE QUESTIONS. LET ME RESTATE THEM HERE

Let me ask you some SIMPLE QUESTIONS.
What is the VAT rate for a bag of Garri (Nigeria 's most consumed food)?
What is VAT on one Cow from Katsina?
What is VAT rate on A tuber of yam from Benue?
Your VAT collections simply means you are a NET CONSUMER.
You consume manufactured goods that are VATABLE.
You consume IMPORTED goods that are VATABLE.
You CONSUME oil and gas from Niger Delta and pay VAT.
Tell me what you produce in South West, NOTHING!

Ondo State alone produces more oil than the combined output of all the South-East states. Go and verify it.

VAT, a tax payable on consumption, reflects the purchasing power and economic activity of the people in the area where it is generated. Therefore, if the South-East is generating the least VAT in Nigeria, it clearly shows that the region has the lowest level of economic activity in the country. Higher VAT collections generally indicate stronger economic activity and spending levels in the area where they are generated. Productivity cannot truly be high in a region where businesses are shut down every Monday. I think you should stop deceiving yourself.

Una go cry blood tire. Tinubu has already failed you...who do you expect to save you later on .

Alhaji Kanu El-Nnamdi is saying "hello" from Sokoto maximum Prison!

All those radical islamists in Ibadan who invited Gumi to the city some weeks ago should be picked up for fratenasing with a known terrorist!

I learned she was kidnapped at the gate in front of her house at General Gas. Only God knows what she was doing there, where she went, or who she was with,” Olanrewaju said

What a question — what she was doing in front of her own house?! I don't think this Mr Olanrewaju is alright,I'm sorry!

Governor Adeleke should learn how to comport himself, especially in public. The way he carries himself — dancing excessively in public — is quite unbecoming of a governor. I think it may have to do with a certain blood/trait in him. You're invited to come and give a speech,but then you started singing! There is a time and place for everything nah! Learn how to respect yourself, man!

Biafrannuke:
Zoo waiting for judgement day.

Believe it or not,that "judgement day" will only land on your people! You have no idea what you're wishing for Chinedu.

SEOJanitor:
You and i know he will be released, cry

Oh....you people's new song now is: "he will be released",lol! What happened to your initial threat — "Tinubu dares not jail him,Nigeria will burn"? So,why haven't you started burning Nigeria,Chinedu? Believe it or not,your pain — the gnashing of teeth — is just starting because Kanu will never breathe air of freedom again. It can only get worse for him,trust me. What an irony; Kanu is now running errands for the same Almajiri boys he detests so much inside Sokoto prison!

You don't know the law! Unfortunately,Sokoto is where you will spend the rest of your misrable life.

The aboki inmates are dealing ruthlessly with the yeye guy hence he wants a relocation to another prison, lol!

Salama aleykun warahmatulahi wabarakatuhu,Alhaji Kanu El- Nnamdi,Ohamadike of Sokoto prison!

By the time "the zoo" is through with your yeye "dilector" his life will never remain same again.

Anybody that loves Sharia can relocate to Afghanistan. Let it be known that the attempts to make Nigeria a radical Islamic state will be resisted.

VladimirTheGrea:
I never hear that shaqman Akintola voice since.

Is he ok??

The werey dey hibernate somewhere trying to avoid the US searchlight on his criminal organisation — MURIC. He is one of those fanatics wey go collect wotowoto when Trump finally get time for dem in Naija.

For a sustainable and genuine global peace,growth and development,Islam must be contained.

Suya for bandits!

Adeleke's biggest political miscalculation would have been to join Apga! Like the former Governor Oyinlola rightly said; joining Apga is definitely "a one chance" — a political suicide! Apga in Yorubaland? What a joke— dead on arrival!

Iceiscold:
She have has a point..content creators are trying to pasd lessons but must also be careful in doing that

Yes,I agree with you — she has a point.

Some people are crazily obsessed with anything that has to do with Lagos and the Yoruba. The pain is so real! Anyway,keep crying — the pain is not even stopping anytime soon!

God bless Yoruba people.
God bless Yorubaland.
God bless Nigeria and everyone who loves her!

Hausa versus Fulani — if you know,you know! The arrested bandits are Fulanis while the rioters are Hausas.

The American governments,at all levels,are more concerned about the insecurity in Nigeria, but our own senators are busy salivating over the “sumptuous meal” to be served at the First Lady’s dinner invitation. What a shame!
