That is not a smart move o. If we want things to truly work, kick APC out if both federal and Lagos. Then, you will have done a very complete and thorough job.

BreconHills:
You didn't give any stats to back it up. Look unlike say seven years ago you did not have websites specifically set up to carry bad news. Bad news is being magnified more than ever and there are more distribution systems than there were ten years ago.

The stats show that suicide has actually diminished since 2015 when the APC took over. See the attached image.

Look I try to really avoid being emotional about Nigeria because I don't want to lose my ability to query widely held assumptions simply because I don't like the party in power. I just go with the data. The data here does not support your assertion. Newspapers and websites are fighting for clicks and bad news is a good way of getting them

Eat shit and die!

Slurity:
You don't know ANYTHING on politics.

kevclin:
LP has a credible candidate in Lagos. We need to vote him.

BreconHills:
Right. That's better.

Nigerias inflation is largely imported - cost push. Food Importation alone amounts to about 14.61% or about $10 billion per annum. That's not a huge figure until you remember that the highest number Nigeria's reserves have recorded in recent times is about $36bn. If a country spends one third of its reserves on food imports - then you are going to get higher prices due to pressure on the local currency.

But that's not all folks...

The entire world ( and I am sorry I spoke about travelling out recently - who does that?) Is experiencing high inflation. The US, UK, Europe - everyone. This is a function.of higher energy prices and the break down in global supply chains brought about by China's zero covid policy. Its ugly out there right now.

Regarding the states - most people don't know it because most states unfortunately rely only on statutory allocation but a state does have the power to create an enabling environment for its people especially an oil producing state like bayelsa. Unfortunately most of this particular state's governors have been criminals who have frittered away the largesse they gained in the GEJ years when oil receipts were extraordinarily high. These states also accommodated the kidnapping and violence that chased away the oil companies that were at least greasing the economy to a small part. These same kidnap and bone breaking gangs have now cornered the illegal bunkering business which is why they aren't complaining as much as the poor oppressed citizen. Where is MEND today? Where are the Delta Avengers? Buying new houses in Dubai most likely.

So basically our consumption patterns and the global economy and of course governors that treat opportunity as a celebration are to blame.

Is the FGN doing the best job on the economy? No. But that's because everyone is so scared to remove the oil subsidy and partially float the Naira. If they did this, they would have more money to play with - they've kicked the can down the road to the next government.

Take it from me, if the next President does what he should do, they will be voted out disgracefully after one term.

Sorry again did not mean to sound condescending or insulting. Have a great day.

* Pardon all typos*

That is the lack of structure we are talking about, L.P. lack candidates that are contesting meaningfully at all levels, you can't just tell people to vote only for LP when it comes to presidency and vote whoever they want at other levels. You guys forgot that, it General election we are doing next year. For any president to win at the center, he must also win the majority of other levels. The lost that is waiting for Obi is so glaring. He can not even second

BreconHills:
Rest friend.

I can't make it any more simple than I have already done. If it's gibberish then point out the flaws in my statement. If you cant do that then I can't help you. I don't do insults or ck measuring contests and I don't do come backs that don't go to the issue. Go and find someone else to play with.

But if you want to point out the gibberish in what I have said then bring it on.

blackpanda:
We are talking about Bayelsa State here, not Federal Government. Keep your biased trash shut!

blackpanda:
Shut up pls.
Is APC the govt in Bayelsa

BreconHills:
Read again sloowwwly...

BreconHills:
This is a statement from someone who has not travelled outside Nigeria recently or someone who does not understand how the Federal system works. Which party runs Bayelsea?

markpenk:
Lol... It's the Naija-herd mentality I think. People don't appreciate the vehicle is all.

I think they transferred the phobia for the ball joint failure in the pre-2005 accords to the later models.

Yet not once had mine failed even after plying some pretty rough roads.

Tinubuadvocate:

Afamed:
Do I need to remind you that I dont engage inconsequential entity?

Sweetplum:
No let me change am for you o. Else I vent the anger of my debtors on you this week.

Afamed:
How can a man be easily manipulated like this?

Moh247:
So Seun will you say you don't know this dude Nagadawo since 2014

He has called me a rapist

Posted my family pictures here

Insulted my family

Now using my name in clear violation of rule 10

Sweetplum:
Receive sense. If you know Seun Elewa, you ll know he just hate Tinubu. On Twitter and here, he doesn't show his disdain as if Tinubu stole his gf.
And I repeat, I m neutral. I don't belong to Tinubu.

candidtalk:
Seems like some people begin smoking Mkpurummiri as early as they wake up. Senseless garbage.

deedee44:
8.3m for that car that failed crash test? If mpg friendly is what you're looking for why not go for yaris. Clean toks won't cost you half of what you would spend on that suzuki
