Its not trolling but admonishing you guys to take responsibility for deliberately putting everyone in this hardship.

There was no empirical evidence that Tinubu would perform.

He avoided every debate and interview to share his plans and the few times he made attempts, he showed signs of incoherence.

Does this person look ok to you?

helinues:
Would something terrible happen to you if you decided not to troll others in a day?

Must you seek my validation about your opinions all the time?

Don't be petty boy

You just can perform without legitimacy

No wonder they're dragging Lagos into a regional govt! SW is largely undeveloped without Lagos.

How then do you expect indigenous Lagosians to be willing to carry the burden of the entire SW? No wonder they say they'd stay as a colony

Protest does work, France is am example.

Protest can work in Nigeria but Nigerians are too tribalistic and unenlightened.

tctrills:
Truth is, I don't know but protest has been tried and so I know it doesn't work. I am not even talking about Nigeria.
I can hardly name a country that got better because of protest.

BAT and RAT should resign. They're extremely incompetent and corrupt

treesun:
The wife of the president, Senator Oluremi Tinubu on Tuesday appealed to Nigerians to show understanding with the federal government in it’s attempt to tackle the hardship Nigerians are experiencing.



Senator Oluremi Tinubu who made the appeal in Lafia, while distributing food items to the people with disabilities, physically challenged and the vulnerable under the Renew Hope Initiative food outreach Programme, said the distribution was in line with Tinubu agenda of not leaving anyone behind.

President Tinubu wife who was represented by the wife of the Vice President, Hajiya Nana Kashim Shettima, said the food outreach scheme is specially designed to provide support to the underprivileged in line with the resolve of the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to leave no one behind in ensuring food security and sufficiency in the country.


“I’m delighted to be in Lafia for the official hand-over and symbolic presentation of food items to internally displaced persons, people living with disabilities and other vulnerable groups in Nasarawa State under the Renewed Hope Initiative food outreach scheme as part of our Social Investment Programme.

“Under this scheme, a trailer load of assorted food items is being donated to the state government for onward distribution to identified groups courtesy of a notable and public spirited industry that has made the commitment to make the food items available on a monthly basis”, senator Oluremi Tinubu stated.

According to her, so far, the federal capital territory, Kano and Nasarawa State have benefited from the scheme under the Social Investment Program of the Renewed Hope Initiative.


The wife of the president while commending the Nasarawa state governor, Abdullahi Sule for supporting the Renew Hope Initiative programme also acknowledged the donation of a piece of land to accommodate the Orphanage and children home in Nasarawa state.

“I want to appreciate the Governor of Nasarawa State, His Excellency, Engr. Abdullahi Sule for his support for all the Renewed Hope Initiative activities, particularly the gracious donation of a piece of land to accommodate the Orphanage and Children’s Home in Nasarawa State”.

She announced a grant of twenty thousand to 100 vulnerable women and plans by the federal ministry of agriculture to provide fertilizer to women and N50, 000 naira to aid women farmers in Nasarawa state

As an influencer, same way you're praised for endorsing a candidate that performs, say way you're lambasted if your candidate underperforms.

Great power comes with great responsibility

EmperorCaesar:
She has the right to vote whoever she wants, so I really don't understand what the hate is about

That fool said Toyin attracted hate to herself...since you've always loved her, what have u done to improve her life?

Stupid take

Obi won in 2023 but it was stolen. It will not be stolen in 2027 because we ain't going to court

dheilaw1:
na ogun go kee all of una. You think say you go fit bully people into silence? If your noise could not do anything in 2023, why do you think it's gonna do something now? Na ogun go kee all of una again. We are ready for you. Obi still no go win in 2027.

Western states on looting spree. Lagos is one huge close spending state without showing what's inside

You aint gonna force it down my throat.

If we have regional ethnicities, perhaps we should be talking of separate countries

Noneroone:
we modelled our own like the US but we are not like the US. We have regional ethnicities and religion but the US doesn't have, they are migrants. You have no logical point against regions you are just repeating same thing which is different from being reasonable.

So what will work?

tctrills:
We both know protest don't work.

I said what I said

Front0lane:
But you father with a worse reputation n a nonentity is not a fraudster ba ?!

Better to scrap ICC! We cannot accept double standard

Tinubu was not voted for by majority! His votes were inflated by swapping Obi's votes and altering some. This is a fact! He came a distant third.

It is the lack of legitimacy that why he is fumbling

budaatum:
I think it is you playing the ostrich by refusing to accept that Nigerians voted and the winner won.

I personally can't understand why Nigerians would vote for APC after 8 years of Buhari, but here we are, reaping the consequence of "nonchalancy, docility and carelessness" of the majority who elected the president.

Thankfully, na democracy we de, and the next election is in 3 years time when we get another chance to resit the exam again. Hopefully, you won't be here claiming the winner rigged the election if your preferred or the better candidate loses because you didn't do what would make them win.

The election was rigged, everybody knkws it except those pretending not to

budaatum:
Are you a trump supporter too? He too blames everyone else but his dumb self for not winning the last US election.

I find it irresponsible and depowering of the self to blame others instead of finding out where you went wrong and doing better next time.

We modelled our structure like the US so if the US is working, we can work if we replicate their structure.

Going to the region is gonna complicate things. Many of our states are bigger than Netherlands so why won't they work on their own?

Again, leave the 36 states but give the full autonomy with their own constitution, state Supreme Court and state police.

How big is Croatia, Scotland, Belgium, Cyprus, Lithuania, Macedonia, Monaco? They're as small as states in Nigeria

Noneroone:
It is lie. Regions are necessary. The problem with Nigerians is that they are very pretentious and hide their feelings for bad. Nigerians identify with their ethnic groups before country but pretend a lot to love the country more. Other people will tell themselves the truth and will structure their country according to their differences, not Nigerians.

Several states are too small to serve as federating units with the federal government. When states with common interest bargain collectively as a region, their cultural, religious and economic interests will be better protected. It ensures national consensus and stability in a country with competing value systems.

Secondly, state creation breed local protectionism where neighbouring states make conflicting economic policies and laws which they believe it's for the best interest of their individual states but actually end up forming a barrier to harnessing their comparative advantage.

Can you imagine Lagos having a giant rice mill but is struggling with a rice farm in far away kebbi when lands abound in neighbouring southwest states.

Imagine also Port Harcourt having a seaport while containers fall on their way from Lagos to Onitsha and Aba with exorbitant clearance cost. Even many goods in same PH are not imported through it's port. This will improve drastically for instance, if there is a regional law on reduced tax for goods imported through PH port across states in the region and a railline linking the port to all states in the region. Cost of business will reduce leading to economic growth.

Finally, do you believe region isn't really necessary? Do bandits in the northwest west mind state boundary? Herdsmen in the middlebelt camp in one state to attack another. A lot of kidnappers in Anambra camp in Imo. In this case state police can not do shit. This was why Okowa had to do so security summit with south east governors at some point.
State commanded police needs regional coordination and a single regional intelligence center. To tackle insecurity.

This does not stop states that see no need to integrate from emphasizing on themselves. Pursuing closer integration is not by force but there must be regional Structure.

The judiciary was compromised! All evidences were either ignored or technically knocked out with the excuse that they were not timely filed

loffyloffy:
If you have any evidence of rigging present it.

Your principal and Atiku that have agents at every polling station had nothing reasonable to present.

80% of their efforts at the tribunal was to disqualify BAT..that is to tell any reasonable person that they lost the election

You're writing epistles. Do you know how important IREV is in realtime?

Nobody can steal something thats been seen by everyone in real-time. This is the reason IREV was shutdown. It'd have made the rigging extremely difficult

loffyloffy:
Bros..Irev does not determine who wins the election, it is just a display board for online real time results.

With or without Irev, elections are won or lost at the polling booths, with results signed off by the agents of each party.

Just a look at the election petition tribunal is enough evidence to convince any reasonable person that Tinubu won the election.

None of his opponents brought any evidence that showed he didnt win to the tribunal, rather the two of them focused their case on trying to disqualify Tinubu, which they galantly lost.

That is enough to tell any objective person that, they know they didnt win the election.

Beyond that, none of them (Obi and Atiku) have claimed that they won..it is only there deluded followers, espescialy the obedients that have been making this spurious claims.

Obi wanted to 'Challenge the process, and not the result' because he knows the result is good enough to withstand his scrutiny.

Was the process perfect? No..but the result is a true reflection of the will of majority of Nigerians.

The Obedients are the Nigerian Equivalent of Trump Replubicans

You can choose to play the ostrich but there's consequences for nonchalancy, docility and carelessness

budaatum:
All this stuff you mention was raised in court by my Obi and Atiku and the judge threw it out.

If you want more transparency than you currently got, start working now so no one can tipex you. I don't do sour grapes.

You atleast

Truthsandtrusts:
Who you yourself come better pass for the society?

Jonathan had one of the best economy. He left about 35 billion in foreign reserve and excess crude account so you dont know what you're talking about

Johnnyplus01k:
Naija problem started from jonah regime, the money in the reserve kept by OBJ was spent by him, to win 2011 elections and dont forget that sanusi was the CBN govt then. the economy started crumbling from jonah's regime

You really believe IREV was shutdown for no reason? The results that were changed with tipEx doesn't matter? The lack of transparency doesn't matter?

budaatum:
I am very certain that if you provide credible evidence where it needs to be considered that our current president rigged the elections we would not be celebrating him and would kick him out of Aso Rock, but barring such evidence, I am not taking your word for it that Tinubu rigged the elections.

My Obi lost, period. Next election, I should work harder instead of blaming my opponent for beating me.

1986 Maradona got away with it because there is no replay or VAR. Such thing won't happen today.

Same way INEC introduced IREV but because they were compromised, the shut it down. Bottomline is, if a people are not determined to do the right thing, they won't.

If we look on and condone cheating, we're destroying our country and thats why Nigeria is retrogressing. There are some countries where compromising the elections is a serious criminal offense but in Nigeria, we hail people who rig elections. Same way we celebrate heads of states like Buhari who are coupists even though coup is treasonable, doesn't matter if it succeeds or not

budaatum:
Do you watch football? There was this match that Argentina played against England and a certain Maradona scored with his hand of God. Apparently, he had been practising it before, and it worked again and Argentina won while England is till today lamenting that Argentina did not legitimately win.

My point is, that cheating might be the same way Tinubu won, and he now occupies Aso Rock, changing our National Anthem and raising vat, and he will serve his 4 years, and 8 if he repeats the same trick in 2027, and I don't see how he could be more legitimate than that.

If we want free and fair election where the winner does not win by a foul, we, as in we the people, must make our elections free and fair and devoid of hand balls ourselves so our leaders are legitimate, instead of hoping politicians will all of a sudden be struck by the Gods and have clean hands.

Has to be a mass movement to be successful. 3 million people hitting the streets at the same time makes it difficult for the govt to handle using the military

MIKOLOWISKA:
you start
We will copy you if successful

Prof Gbajue Way

Pbatmedia:
#PHOTO: President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, today in Abuja, at the commissioning of the Arterial Road N20 From Northern Parkway to Outer Northern Expressway, which will now be known as Wole Soyinka Way.

Why is Tinubu foot dragging on state police?

Provided someone like Tinubu is not rigged in again, the person will do well.

Infact, anybody that wins a free and fair election will perform. Having enough legitimacy helps a govt succeed. Tinubu lacks legitimacy because he did not win

budaatum:
I wonder why you'd think I said what you think I said when it's obvious I must have heard what people said under Buhari and what is being said under Tinubu.

Funny thing is, after Tinubu's term ends and someone else takes over and things get even worse, they'd forget that ebi npa wọn, and be here claiming Tinubu was a Messiah compared just as Buhari is now become a saint.

Both are monumental failures

Bullfallo:
From my observations between tinubu and buhari. I would say Buhari is more intelligent than tinubu. But that doesn’t mean buhari is intelligent either. Both of them are below the IQ ratings of An average intelligent person.

Tinubu might be smart but Smartness is different from intelligence or someone with high IQ.

Buhari understands Nigeria economy better than tinubu.

You can represent yourself

gistray:
If he was a fake lawyer how come he was able to represent himself?

Thats not the point, are you not gonna vote anybody?

The point is the citizens must protest for them to be placed on same salary scale as civil servants. Lets stop being docile!

tctrills:
I don't blame any senator for earning such an amount. It's not as if we did not know that they would pay themselves so well when we elected them.

There is no sugarcoating here. Look at other democracies, when the government does stupid policies, they come out enmasse to protest until the govt does the right thing.
Here in Nigeria, tribalism will not allow yhe youths forge a common front

sparko1:
Stop sugarcoating it, youths have always been the one determining it, the problem is the options to choose from.

Once a president/governor is elected, nobody can determine how the country is run.
