Politics › Re: Opinion : Why Dangote's Free Truck Delivery Of Fuel Is Not Actually Free by citizenY(m): 11:38am On Sep 21, 2025
SarkinYarki:
This is the thing with all these obaranda business people , you people know nothing about business other that nail and hammer approach...What he has done is called a sunken cost which will be borne by the scale of his other operations for now , he already has people that fixes his trucks , already the has his towing service , you also noticed he didn't go for old trucks but brand new ones that will reduce the headache of maintenance for at least 24 months which by then he would have destroyed the importers ...The importers backed by a powerful man in govt gave him no choice than to go this route or completely lose his 20bn dollars investment
Hidden costs or no hidden cost, importers should counter his service offering or shut up. What the consumer deserves is s fair pump price.

The grounded gravy train must not be scrapped for ever. I have always seen these tank farms as conduit pipes for sleaze. In logistics, double handling only adds cost, not value. Why do you want to ship product from refinery to tank farm and transfer to road trucks when you can load trucks directly from Refinery gantries?

Politics › Re: Albania’s AI Minister Diella Sparks Parliamentary Debate, Defends Appointment by citizenY(m): 10:56am On Sep 19, 2025
SolaOmoniyi:
Virtual AI Minister Defends Appointment, Promises Transparency Amid Corruption Concerns


In a historic parliamentary session on Thursday, September 18, 2025, Albania’s first-ever AI-generated minister, Diella, took center stage to defend its controversial appointment.

Appointed by Prime Minister Edi Rama just last week, Diella—whose name means “sun” in Albanian—appeared as a holographic video projection in traditional Albanian attire, reassuring lawmakers and citizens that it is “not here to replace people, but to help them.”

Launched in January 2025 as a digital assistant for the government’s e-Albania platform, Diella has now been entrusted with overseeing public tenders to ensure corruption-free procedures and greater transparency in public fund management. Rama has positioned the AI as a critical tool in Albania’s fight against corruption, as the nation—currently ranked 80th out of 180 on Transparency International’s Corruption Index—seeks to advance its EU membership bid by 2030.

Defending Constitutionality: Facing critics who argue that a machine has no place in governance, Diella directly addressed the constitutional concerns raised by the opposition:

“Some have called me ‘unconstitutional’ because I am not a human being. Let me remind you, the real danger to constitutions has never been the machines but the inhumane decisions of those in power.”

The AI further pledged to Read more...

Why are you having erection over another person's wife? Why taking panadol for another's headache? I perfectly understood your challenge; you are still hallucinating over the 2023 presidential election that your principal stole, you want to know his party so you people will infiltrate and cause disaffection. Just like, when you blow one lie, you will need several other lies to continue covering up. You should be asking yourself why your principal is lavishing tax payers money hiring international lawyers to prevent America from releasing his academic and drug case.
He will not declare his stand now until it is too late and they will end up with one mushroom contraption that cannot cover the political space. Then there will be Lamentations.

Thank God PETER OBI invested the state money in a business that is today the highest manufacturing sector income earner for the state.

To demonstrate confidence in the company he also invested his personal money up to 5% equity.

Meanwhile , your political demigod
established Alfa beta to do some financial cleanup,
converted government properties to personal use,
Uses bullion van to transport money to his house
Controls political patronage in the whole south west region.
Stopped performing governor Ambode
Etc.

I wonder what China would have done to him

Politics › Re: Editorial: Tinubu Must Fire Lere Olayinka Now. by citizenY(m): 7:54am On Aug 26, 2025
malali:
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu cannot continue to look away while his administration is hijacked by reckless loudmouths like Lere Olayinka, the Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media to Nyesom Wike. This is a man who has built a reputation not on defending Nigerians, not on exposing corruption, not on championing reforms, but on threatening citizens with impunity and disdain.


@oo

Sincere advice.... Close your eyes, and ears.. Too much tv is not good for your psyche. Nobody stops you from being the opposite version of Lere. It is, called freedom of speech.
When freedom after speech ensues.... You will not even be, aware that Lere has gone away. Na today?

For years, Olayinka has made treasonous remarks, speaking as though Nigerians should be decapitated for daring to comment on national issues. And now he dares to call for gagging social media, demanding bottlenecks and gatekeeping to silence Nigerians. What he has never once called for is the prosecution of looters, the dismantling of corruption networks, or accountability within government.

This is the face of a deeper rot: unelected aides who talk down to the electorate as if they were mob enforcers, not public servants. Nigerians did not elect Lere Olayinka. He has no mandate. His only qualification appears to be a reckless mouth and loyalty to a political boss. Yet his voice is amplified from inside Tinubu’s government, poisoning public trust and making the president himself the target of growing resentment.

Enough is enough. If Tinubu is serious about discipline and respect in his administration, he must fire Lere Olayinka immediately. Political appointees can squabble in private, but when addressing Nigerians, they must do so with humility and respect. Anything less is abuse of the very people who gave Tinubu his mandate.

Every day Olayinka remains in office is another day Tinubu’s presidency is undermined by arrogance, contempt, and disregard for Nigerians. The time to act is now. Fire Lere Olayinka.

Tareq1105:
There's nothing to weep about except for obi's inconsistency.

If you want to remain in LP, remain there.

If it's ADC you prefer, go there. But when say you're in ADC and you're still working hard to fix LP challenges then it's obvious that you have a problem.

So, this write up exposes obi's instability, confusion, coalifusion and indecision.

Tinubu from Day one has been consistent with one party. Obi should stay and build LP, though not his party and if it's ADC he wants to build, it's within his right to do so.
Obi is moving from his house, to a bed and breakfast hotel, to save money. He prefers squatting and it is not comfortable for his followers, boxers, bra , toothbrush and sponge always in one Ghana must go.

Tinubu have taken the Nigeria presidency mandate from igbos in 2023 and must return it back or Bola tinubu or igbos will not have the presidency in 2027 instead let the northerners have the presidency in 2027.

OP, I will agree with you on this. Aside this 4 noble men, present any other Igbo politicians like Umahi, Uzodinma, Rocha's, Soludo, Kalu, and present Belo Turji or Sheakua, the Igbos I know very well will vote the duo instead of the other Igbo men.

Lesson: Igbos don't vote base on sentiment or tribalism. They votes base on competent.
