Thiefobi1: The economy was okay and obi was paying 11k as minimum wage while refusing to increase workers salary which he never did anyway.
Your hate and bigoted mind will never allowed an ibo man to see the truth and speak.
It not wasteful in buying 400 cars for traditional rulers who are not political office holders in Anambra and refusing to pay 18k workers minimum wage.
But it is wasteful buying presidential jet for the president and his vice.
How old are u anyway.
Cure your mind of bigotry ibo man
Oga, must you answer every issue by referring to Obi? Is Obi your current president? Why cant you face the current president?
ibabz: But Tinubu was not Patient with us before he removed subsidies and destroyed the economy.
Exactly. He did it within minutes of becoming President.
Once it comes to the poor, they dont send. But when it comes to the rich, you will hear full explanations of why each NASS member needs a 160 Million Naira SUV, plus N200 Million palliatives.
Tinubu has always been for the rich. Govt of the rich, by the rich for the rich.
Anything that affects the common man is meaningless to them.
Later, one nairalanda1 will say "unfortunately things cost money."
Racoon: You are always a joker on this forum. Even the most senior defenders of this wicked and evil government have long disappeared from here. Only warped fellas are still incredibly trying to defend a failed govt
Let's paint the picture again for you man. The government that is asking the suffering workers to be patient is the same crazy govt that is buying a presidential yatch/ jet, budget billions for feeding/travelling/SUVs for greedy NASS members, #21B for VP residence, #90B for hajj among many other financial recklessness and executive rascality.
Meanwhile, the citizens continue to groan in pain of hunger, unemployment, high cost of living, economic stagnation, deteriorating insecurity, poor healthcare system, investors/forex flight and double-digit galloping inflation.
When it comes to paying a decent minimum wage for the suffering worker, then you start rationalising. These people are really wicked. Meanwhile, all the lootocracy has never been based on contentment. Don't let parochial and ethno-religious sentiments becloud your sound sense of judgement man. Enough!
Very well said.
I just said that I wonder if BAT is using serious jazz.
Because I dont know why the public has not spontaenously revolted against the government by now.
I swear, if I hear of one more government-inspired increase in prices of ANYTHING (such as electricity, or introducing new taxes or raising taxes) - and if there is not a spontaenous revolt by the public, I will give up on this country.
As for the NLC, its obvious they have somehow been long compromised. This is the weakest, tamest and most useless the NLC has ever been.
To imagine that all this is happening under a President who led protests against subsidy removal during GEJ's tenure is just bewildering.
GUNITGuy: He has no idea what he's saying we just endure Emiefele cum Buhari now Sanusi the same privilleged northerners in the mode of El Rufai, Atiku, Saraki and Co ....He's Joking honestly
Honestly I taya oh. I can't imagine how anyone can recommend such people as President of Nigeria.
He even recommended Mahmoud Yakubu, can you imagine.
Mahmoud who presided over a fraud. In the dead of night.
LandMann: Funny how you're not demanding for proof for the corrupt Sule Lamido you also suggested.
Here's the one for Shehu Sani. Meanwhile, go back and read my post slowly if you find the information contained in links confusing wrt what I said. For the record I said:
LandMann: 1. Google the Buhari Jibril from Sudan story. As believable as the peddlers made it seem back then, is it true? Does something existing on Google make it true?
2. If you can show me any verifiable public record from Nigerian prison, Nigeria government or foreign government website claiming that sanusi was imprisoned by Sani abacha for murder then I'll give you N100,000. If I don't give you the money then the mod can ban my account or I'll deactivate my account. If you can't reply me before tomorrow 12pm with the proof as described above then you are a fool forever
Sorry, I don't need your pitiful 100k. I am a very successful international lawyer and I can probably feed you for years.
Stop being shallow. Research.
You still have not given me your proof of Shehu Sani's conviction. Who do you think you are deceiving? You are just a little young clown.
LandMann: Aside from the propaganda website you provided, which other reliable news outlets carried this story?
Can you point to any Nigeria Prisons record showing that Sanusi was ever in jail for murder?
1. Google the Akaluka story. It's not a propaganda story. It's an open secret in Nigeria and very well documented by multiple reputable sources.
2. Yes, Sanusi was locked up by Abacha for murder but released based on intervention from Northern royal families. This os also a fact. Do your research.
LandMann: I can wake up tomorrow and decide to write a piece about how you have been sponsoring terrorism in the south east. I can also add that you were part of those that killed that military couple and skinned her private part. I'll make my allegations long and colourful and add more specific details about you to the story to make it believable. A sensible person would ask for evidence to Backup my story. But people like you will even believe the write-up about yourself. Meanwhile millions of foolish Nigerians who like to vote bad leaders and wail afterwards will already have believed my incredulous story about you.
There you go, assuming I am Igbo. I am not. You just make assumptions and that's a sign of lack of depth or intelligence.
The Akaluka story is not new. No one made it up. It's well documented.
LandMann: Shehu Sani is an ex-convict who also has had to battle EFCC for receiving bribe of $25,000 to buy judgement.
Sule Lamido is the same pool as James Ibori and Lucky Igbinedion. They're all ex governors who looted their states dry, got convicted but found a way to get out of jail and still continue to parade themselves in Nigeria's political space.
If these people were in China they would have been hanged and long dead to prevent them from birthing and breeding more criminals.
Isn't it funny that you know so much but it's these two characters that you are able to suggest?
Please can you kindly show me the Judgement which convicted Shehu Sani. I will be very interested in that.
Meanwhile you remain silent on Akaluka. Deliberately?
Wait a minute, don't tell me you are the sort of person who sees broad day light crimes and ignores them?
The crimes of Sanusi are many. I told you he printed money to seize banks (N620 billion at the time) you are silent on that. I told you he lied about NNPC funds, a proven fact, you are silent on that.
I mentioned Yakubus questionable conduct in the elections, you are silent on that.
You people are the problem of this country. You support criminals and expect things to go right. Someone like you will turn a blind eye to Gandollar stuffing dollars in his agbada.
Please do me two favors if you can (and I know you can't).
LandMann: Get out of your empty shell and tell the world who in the north you feel is capable of leading Nigeria given their academic qualification and public service record.
How about Shehu Sani?
How about Sule Lamido?
There are others.
As I said, I don't know your age oh, but for you to recommend a corrupt morally bankrupt thief and murderer such as Sanusi, an INEC Chairman who announces the results of a presidential election in the dead of night such as Yakubu, and an Islamic fundamentalist, jingoist and murderer such as El Rufai, just shows me you don't know jack shit about these people.
LandMann: The fact that you can't give superior suggestions to mine to promote a healthy discussion shows that you're very empty. You may feel you know things but you don't know anything.
I'm sure your likes critised Obasanjo for promoting Yar Adua as president. But history has shown that yar adua is the best president Nigeria ever hard despite death taking him away too soon.
To people like you the north is filled with terrorists and killers, so they can never produce any good leader.
Get out of your empty shell and tell the world who in the north you feel is capable of leading Nigeria right given their academic qualification and public service record.
Only zombiés follow the crowd to chant a particular song without coming up with their own.
Are you a zombié?
You have made a lot of assumptions about my views.
For example about Yaradua. I believe he was the best President this country has had.
Stop jumping to conclusions.
You are actually ignorant if you don't know the story of Gideon Akaluka and Sanusi.
I dropped you a link. Happy reading.
Educate yourself before you presume.
Here is the link again. Don't take my word for it. Research it.
LandMann: What I do know about Sanusi is that he helped to reform and strengthen Nigeria's banking system as CBN governor so much so that he eliminated bank charges completely and ensured all Nigerians with ATMs could freely access forex without having to go through bureau d change operators even though they existed.
I see Sanusi as fearless and an open and active critic of corruption in Nigeria and the some backward practices in the north that is drawing the entire Nigeria back. For example, Sanusi exposed the theft of oil revenue that could have been remitted to government and used to fund worthwhile development programmes in Nigeria. Unfortunately he was removed from office as head of CBN for speaking out about it.
Sanusi as openly criticized the corrupt act of the dollar in agbada stuffing criminal that is now chairman of the ruling party while he was governor. In return the governor removed Sanusi as Emir.
Sanusi left peacefully and never resisted.
Are these the attributes of a tyrant?
All I have said here is in the public domain. You can confirm or rebut all I have stated.
Maybe you're in possession of some secret information I don't know about Sanusi. If so please share it so others will know him better.
Till then, Sanusi is better than Atiku, Tinubu and Peter Obi put together
LandMann: I gave that suggestion based on what is feasible given Nigeria's unique situation.
There's an unwritten rule that power must rotate between the north and south of Nigeria.
If Tinubu calamitous reign ends then power will shift to the north.
That is the reality.
If power returns to the north then it'll be disastrous to have Atiku as the main contender in the north cos Nigeria will just have another Tinubu to suffer under in the form of Atiku who is a career politician with no sound academic background.
That is why I suggested Sanusi as president and soludo as vice... And then when Sanusi is done I'm sure everybody will support soludo once it's the turn of the south.
The only three viable individuals from the north who can actually work for Nigeria from my point of view is Sanusi and the current inec chairman professor yakubu and then the former Kaduna governor el rufai. But professor yakubu can't contest cos the powers that be have decided to keep him out of active politics by holing him up inside inec. Meanwhile el rufai is mostly hated in the south and seen as a tribal bigot despite his impressive public service record and academic qualification. Whether it's due to ignorance or deliberate propaganda to ensure he doesn't get into aso rock I don't know. But then I've learnt not to ever trust majority of Nigerians opinions cos Nigerians are mostly foolish in choosing leaders that's why we ended up with the likes of buhari and tinubu back to back.
So, try and understand that I'm trying to be realistic in giving that suggestion.
And also don't try to chestbeat or explain to me why soludo is superior to Sanusi or el rufai or prof yakubu. It's same chestbeating and inability to defer gratification that has prevented the south east from producing a president in Nigeria. Sometimes u just have to hide your shine and play the fool to get what you want in Nigeria.
Rub your arrogance in people's face in Nigeria and you'll be on your own.
The south west are very good at asslicking and deferring gratification. That is what has given them a path to success in Nigeria politics. It's not a mistake that 40-50% of southwest are Muslims. Same religion that is the main religion of the north but seen as a taboo religion in the south east. That is asslicking or subtle deception 101... Share something similar with someone powerful and you can easily gain their trust. The north is powerful because they have the population size and their people can easily be controlled. Underestimate the north at your own peril.
This is the much I can say on this topic. If you like understand if you like keep trying to show the world that you have a first class so you deserve to be president of Nigeria. Cheers
I don't know how old you are, but the fact that you suggest SLS, El Rufai and the worst of all, Mahmoud Yakubu just shows that you don't know anything about this country and exactly who these people are.
LandMann: What I do know about Sanusi is that he helped to reform and strengthen Nigeria's banking system as CBN governor so much so that he eliminated bank charges completely and ensured all Nigerians with ATMs could freely access forex without having to go through bureau d change operators even though they existed.

Maybe you're in possession of some secret information I don't know about Sanusi. If so please share it so others will know him better.
Till then, Sanusi is better than Atiku, Tinubu and Peter Obi put together
His accusations about theft at NNPC. From Fifty billion to twelve billion to twenty billion dollars. He kept changing the figures. In short, he lied.
And have you heard the story of Gideon Akaluka? Google it. Then come back to me.
He was actually very personally corrupt with CBN funds also.
Regarding saving banks, surely you are joking. He printed money without legislative imprimatur and used it to seize banks, such as Intercontinental Bank.
Pls google Gideon Akaluka/ Sanusi and acquaint yourself with the person you are championing.
LandMann: Tinubu is a catastrophic failure however it'll take more to unsit him.
If Peter Obi has the interest of Nigeria at heart then he should go back to PDP.
PDP should not make the mistake of fielding Atiku and Peter Obi should not make the mistake of running on labour party cos they'll either both lose due to the division or Atiku will win if he manages to capture South south vote more than Peter Obi.
Meanwhile, Obi and his labour party don't have what it takes to fix Nigeria. Obi is just like every other politician in Nigeria. He knows how to preach about Nigeria's problem but will abuse his power and focus on enriching himself and his cronies ones he gets power.
Meanwhile, in future, I'd like to see a combo of Sanusi nd Soludo as president and vice... Sanusi should do 8 years then hand over to Soludo to do 8 years.
Tinubu, Atiku, Obi and any other old generation, academically dull and non technocrat should never be voted into or allowed to be president of Nigeria.
Tinubu should be the last disastrous president Nigeria should ever have and PDP, LP and APC should not risk giving power to any one of ATIKU or Peter Obi otherwise Nigeria will become worse than Sudan and Zimbabwe combined
You don't know Sanusi. If he is president, he will reign as a tyrant king. You don't know him at all. He will be worse than Abacha.
fastseo: You have no voice.. If you want to prove there is food increase in Nigeria then you have to point to reputable sources that track this information.
I agree with him that WHERE/WHEN 2 exist is infinite
But you cant still be talking of an everything
cuz an everything nullifies the sort of infinity we re talking about
an everything must av a sum but an infinity with no beginning nor end cannot av a sum
there4 we dont av 2 seek the beginning or the nature of the beginning of such infinity
cuz it has no beginning
how do i know?
i know cuz my understanding of ur failure 2 prove the universe is different from a failure 2 understand how you prove it which is not the case
how can u say anything proves it when u av unknowns about itz origin?
u claim 2 av an understanding but thatz only bcuz u think those unknowns are not a big deal....like wat if the unknowns? wat if they cant be known by u?
but thatz u
i find such unknowns 2 be the consequences of contradictions in ur definitions of the universe
physics doesnt need the universe 2 be included in itz study
Tonnyray: What is your proposed stop-gap measure when local production ceases? We go back to riding horses I presume. Last I checked there's no nation that does not import what it either doesn't naturally have or produce. Did I just learn "bad economic policies, corruption and mismanagement" commenced in Nigeria 9 years ago? In this life we keep learning.
Look, the reality on ground says bluntly that Buhari and Tinubu have been unmitigated disasters.
