This is because of modern civility, but check their leadership, Erdogan, his utterances sand ways shows how he is.

Lol.. Erdogan?! its politics bro. Just as the case in Nigeria.. Politicians use religious rhetorics to drive their base.. Remember he gave millions of Syrians citizenship to vote him.

Its all politics and religion!

dederocs:
Turkey just trying to be cool so Europe embrace them, they are radical.

I tell you they aren't. I lived in Istanbul for years i know the people well. Part very liberal others quite religious

dederocs:
Those lands occupied by Turkey, Syria, Iraq, were Christian lands with Christian people, before the Ottoman empire, which turkey is an offshoot of, seized the lands and Arabs flooded in. Turkey is a radical Islamic nation.

First part true.. other part false

Turks aren’t Arabs.. they’re simply Turks
Turkey is a moderate Moslem country not radical o.. most of them no Dey go mosque at all sef. 😂

Lol.. nah nothing like that go happen.. Israel and Turkey have shared history. A large Jewish community live in Istanbul Turkey. Biblical people like Paul and co were born in Turkey.

Also Turkey is a huge US ally; big NATO member.

Turkey isn’t too Islamic like people think.. until you travel there you go see.

Kh36:
That's why I love Isreal they fear no one. Turkey go soon collect

DeLaRue:
Israel can't take on Turkey without the US, and I can't see the US taking on Turkey, a NATO member.

As a military power, Turkey is no joke.

Exactly.. Turkey is NATO 2nd Largest member/contributor after US.

Turkey have always handled Israel with tact/diplomacy.. Also there’s a Jewish community in Istanbul

Godfullsam:
The current chairman of NRS (no more firs) is doing a great job.

No point replacing him

Absolutely correct.. Zach is another brilliant man doing a great job as well.

Well deserved mr Taiwo Oyedele.. man really did a tremendous job.. at a time seemed the whole country was against him and his tax reforms but he kept on explaining here and there without being wearing out.. very daunting task

I wish him all the best in his new position

Muri? Na not yet, Muri is still learning the ropes as someone rightly stated.

I see Gbaga or Senator Tokunbo Abiru.. I would have said Ambode but I’m not sure yet

destinychildolu:
Look at the pictures, you wiLL see him there. Muri Okunola

Hmmm, na wa o.. Elrufai is in for a long ride

Happy birthday Daddy G.O

Happy birthday our wonderful Daddy G.O! May God bless your new age sir

Exactly.. well said

glolomoh:
While I understood his argument that food importation would kill local food production and farmer's business, I must say that the food importation is necessary at this period because when nigerian farmers were given the opportunity to feed the nation during Buhari regime and early part of Tinubu regime, they almost kill us with food inflation, hunger and famine. They deliberately created artificial scarcity in order to increase the price. They thrown the country into chaos for their selfish gain. They make bumper profit at the masses expenses. And, instead of using these greedily acquired profit to improve and enlarge their business, they were spending as if there will be no tomorrow.

I keep on maintaining it that an average nigerian should not be given monopolistic advantage for any essential commodity. Let them compete locally and globally.

Let’s hope so and support the current INEC leadership on this.

On our own part as citizens let’s go get our PVCs to vote and stop making noise online

Most online noisemakers don’t even have PVC and have never voted

Thiefobi1:
When we say obi is daffft and incoherent. This is one of it.

Peter obi is proposing we keep the farmer (cabal) rich and happy, while the populace (Nigerians) poor and hungry.

Don’t mind him.. very ridiculous and confused person

kokoA:
Regions are not recognised in our constitution.

Noted but how come did OBJ bring about the 6 geopolitical zones.. SS, SW, SE NE NW NC

We’re making argument based on this

Cheering news

Sheuns:
The governor is just as pompous and arrogant as an average Nigerian that’s in position of power or with some money.

They believe they shouldn’t be questioned.

Exactly!

More like one General meets another General!

one military General (rtd), the other a political/economic General.

Wolexyoshi:
Na this same Otti folks will be rating higher than Sanwo-Olu of Lagos. Na wa!

Lol 😂.. Gov Otti really disappoint some of us his outside admirers.. in local parlance “he fall our hand”

A Sanwo-Olu, Fashola, even my former gov Oshiomole would have responded intelligently to that question.

I really admire the President open arms to governors and politicians.. that’s how true leadership ought to be

Very welcome news.. we hoot this Q1 2026 will get better

Gov Otti really ‘fall my hand’. my first time actually listening to him interacting. He messed up big time.

1. As a Leader you ought to be temperate.. no matter what is thrown at you, be it questions or accusations, calm and calculated response is required.. Otti response was VERY RUDE of a supposed leader.

2. The journalist question was on course - as Gov IT IS YOUR DUTY TO KNOW THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF YOUR SERVICE DELIVERY to your citizens.. not from Journalist.

3. In the end Gov Otti actually started answering the same Journalist questions that he initially condemned.. that’s appalling!

4. I’m shocked at a lot of folks here criticising the journalist. He asked a simple question.

Gov Otti you can do better. ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING!

fergie001:
I don't understand how it's a gang-up or betrayal.

Other Zones should endorse theirs too nah!

I don’t understand o my brother.. people that can’t be tolerant of others decision.. it’s either their way or no other.. very unfortunate

“powerful” Malami of that year.. power can indeed be transient.. he really abuse his office.

Exactly! The mischievous dude was trying to sugarcoat it. I also told him same.. it’s pure HOARDING. Greedy people.

aieromon:
This is called hoarding Sir. It is a selfish motive.

https://x.com/Naija_farmers/status/2018962212325327200

Lol.. my friend don’t be ridiculous and clever by half! You think you’re talking to kids here.

What do you mean by ‘stored’ many bags. Oga you were HOARDING Foodstuffs meant to be sold at the right time to make good turnover for you.. Instead you lots were Greedy as many Nigerian farmers/business men have been.

Greed “killed” most farmers/business men business.. they thought of themselves rather than the people.

I’m not saying storage/hoarding is bad.. But when done so long at DETRIMENT OF people is Bad

I don’t pity these hoarders

sirchim:
If you understand what he meant you are smart. Many of us stored many bags of grains, hoping to sell and make our profits. But today, it has crashed putting many of us into debts. As I am typing this, my bro is in a debt of #54M. OBI is RIGHT, our business is being frustrated by the government, that made food stuffs gone so high, due to bad economy. And today, it has crashed, such that it has put many of us into debts.

madridguy:
Obi is just clueless about everything. He talks carelessly.

Don’t mind him.. absolutely clueless and careless with statements

Baba no talk wetin you no know!

Do you know how much incentives the last admin and I think this admin gave to farmers in bid to make foodstuff available and cheaper.. what did the farmers do instead? Some use the monies for something else, SOME FARMERS ACTUALLY HOARDED THEIR FOODSTUFFS THEREBY CREATING ARTIFICIAL SCARCITY and OUTRAGEOUS PRICES. Rice, Beans and other staple foods items were hoarded. (I know this personally cos a close person of mine is a rice farmer, he affirmed this to me. I’m also into Commodities trading so I know).

What do you expect the Govt to do.. they have to open up the boarders to people can import and give competition to the greedy farmers.

Citizens Criticise Govt - not farmers - when food prices are high and Commend Govt when prices are Low.

Obi messed up on this matter.. cho cho cho!

Macphenson:
That headline is misleading. Listen to Peter Obi and understand that the Person that wrote the headline is mischievous.

Peter Obi was mak8ng reference to basic foods being imported, which have automatically killed farming. Manufacturing houses have been turned to warehouses of imported foods which is not a good one for the country.
In line with his consistent slogan, he said he would move the country from consumption to Production. Now we are importing basic foods we should plant that simply means we have killed farming and farmer's business in Nigeria.

Of course it will come with serious consequences.

People up there can't comprehend. They don't even have data to listen to Peter Obi.

Brilliant submission.. I didn’t think that route

UzorIyke:
We have no regional government that will enshrine the law on their constitution and also that will regulate them, moreover given regional security may cause misunderstanding with some region with the federal government here by causing another civil war (the Nigeria civil war of 1967 is the reason of these states in 1967 instead of regions)
So no government will like that.

bentenny:
He said democratic settings and I showed him one which is the US which is the governance structure we are coping!
But if I may ask....is it wrong to copy such police structure that will ensure the powers of political officer holders are limited on the police?

No it’s not wrong at all. I absolutely agree with you

Lol 😂.. my friend wake up from your dream. No bi only take over Nigeria govt.

Nothing like that is happening ok.. Stop reasoning like a bitter child!

obi4eze:
God bless President Donald Trump. Nigeria is waiting on the to-do list. May God use you to help Nigerians take over their government from the curse called APC.

God bless President Donald Trump
God bless the US Department of War
God bless the USA.

I think it’s premature to start comparing Nigeria system to US advanced democracy. Let’s work a way to make either regional or state police work effectively to suit our country

US police system shouldn’t be our benchmark for now

bentenny:
You obviously seem to not know that there are limitations to the powers of the president on the federal policing agencies esp FBI!
I suggest you do more research esp the post Watergate reforms before misinforming people here!
