Abuja is not Port Harcourt. Abuja voters are more discerning. If Ireti continues to show how shes being sidelined by Wike, and Wike continues with his high handedness, Ireti will have a chance. Wike won't have ObiAkpor in Abuja to give him cooked result.

shakdav:
The question is can she stand Aduda next election, everyone know how she came into power.. She started a war she could not continued..

Wike is everywhere with Aduda. Their plan is to leverage the visibility to challenge Ireti at the next election.
Ireti should take her complain to the people. That's her only chance of survival.

Why can't Nigeria allow Ndi Igbo to mourn their 3 MILLION dead in peace?

Tflex01:
So what is your point??

Killing a 'miscreant' on 29th for enforcing sit at home on 30th is illogical. However, if true, the act is nothing but murder at worse or extra judicial killing at best.

Still don't get it?

It is easy for police to kpai miscreants in Anambra for enforcing sit at home.
I hope police will use the same energy to confront those kidnapping and kidnaping hundreds of people in Zamfara

Reno doesn't know when to stop twerking for Tinubu for attention. Even FFK has tuned down the intensity of his BAT bum-licking

Shameless old elements cashing out with the honored name of Ndi Igbo.

Sowore was one of those that gave us Tinubu. He was relentless in his attack of Obi while giving Tinubu a free pass.
I refuse to accept that his actions were influenced by ethnic affinity, but I struggle to see any other justification.

If we had got Obi into office using people power, he will sit-up knowing we can also remove him in 2027 if he fails to perform.
Sowore failed to see the big picture. He should spare us the sanctimonious claptrap

Philipponzaghi:
Oga Tinubu, your government dey make international connections o! Keep up the good work, we dey your back like agbada!

lol ignorance is bliss. Tony Blair is dealing with all sorts of shady characters now to make money using his name and former office. Do you know that his wife Cherrie Blair is on the board of Dangote Refinery? What is their connection to Nigeria or oil industry? If you know, you'll cry for Nigeria.

That's when army was army. Today's army is only good at going to shopping plaza to do debt collector work.

Always easier to victimize poor people. These guys don't print the naira notes. They don't have access to CBN either. Someone at the banks is their supplier. Why can't EFCC seal up the bank involved or arrest the bank officials?

I would rather have these boy 'sell' naira notes to survive than join the long list of dangerous violent criminals terrorizing Nigerians.

Done well in this excruciating poverty, hunger and despair? Nawa o

Toh

Should government also be blamed for the ridiculous price of goods and services we don't import like pepper, tomatoes, onions?

Why should the attached below items be costing N500 in some Southern region areas.

Before talking about herdsmen activities in the north, are the Southern people so that lazy to produce their own foods?

And before talking about the increase in fuel price, what % of increase in fuel price compared to the ridiculous % increase in prices of foods items we don't import?

What a warped logic! And the farmers of pepper, tomatoes, and onions don't buy the imported items at skyrocketing prices ba? They will use pepper to pay for school fees and medical bills abi? They can pay for fuel with bags of onions abi? Nawa for una o

There are PRACTICAL things Tinubu can do today to show seriousness about the economy which will improve confidence in the country/currency.

1. Encourage production for export:
Appoint adviser on export promotion or relocate staff of export promoting council to all clusters of industrial activity around the country, like Aba, Nnewi, Otta, etc. For the guy in Aba, mandate him or her to identify shoe makers, belts, bags, and manufacturers of all sorts of consumer goods. Give them very cheap loans or grants and mandate them to mass produce whatever they can produce.
Convert PH port to primary export terminal to West Africa and flood cheap Aba made goods along the entire west African coast. You will support and create thousands of jobs while earning foreign exchange.

2. Adopt made in Nigeria first policy for all government purchases.
Ban purchase of foreign cars and other items by govt, unless where Nigeria alternative is unavailable. Give Innoson, Nord, etc easy access to capital and encourage them to set up new plants across Nigeria. Work with banks to set up car financing schemes so that Nigerians can purchase brand new made in Nigeria cars and pay in instalments. I change my car in the UK every three years because car finance is readily available.

3. Communicate plan for fixing our power conundrum.
Why is Nigeria about the only country in the whole of Africa that cannot provide electricity for her people? Let's start by explaining why that's the case and how to get out of it. Hardly any Nigerian can tell you why we are in this situation.

4. Demonstrate commitment to farming
Let us see president Tinubu physically inspecting farms all over Nigeria. Tell us how many hectares of land we have cultivated for yam, tomatoes, cassava, etc this year compared to last year and how you plan to ramp it up in the coming years. Tell us how you plan to make sure that farmers are safe in their farms. Let's us see the army confronting herdsmen and making sure that villagers are safe in their homes.

These are PRACTICAL steps you need to take to demonstrate seriousness. Fiddling with interest rate or chasing aboki up and down will not make the value of Naira to appreciate. Never!

Some UK based Nigerians who openly supported the denial of fellow Nigerians the right to vote in Lagos last year are warming up to vote in the UK.

Imagine if the people causing this excruciating pain on Nigerians were people from the dot nation?
Thank God we no follow for those way scatter Nigeria sha

Remember: Before Peter Obi, Anambra was near bottom table in GCSE, WAEC, and JAMB. There was huge concerns about out of school boys. The trend which reversed under Obi has been sustained till date.

Give credit to whom it's due. You don't have to like the guy.

FREE money for FPIs. They will flood in now that $ is nearly at 1500. Their inflows will lead to artificial appreciation of the naira to about 1200. Then they'll exit. Thus making a killing on currency differential + 26.25% ROI. Happy days!

YOU CAN'T RIG INTERNATIONAL FINANCE.

Give Nigerians power supply. Give them security to boost agriculture, trade and tourism. Cut down on wasteful government spending. Enforce rule of law no matter whose Ox is gored. Allow free, fair and transparent elections..... then sit back and watch foreign investors flood in as the country prospers. It's really that simple.

This is what you get when your productive population is busy knacking instead of farming.

MEEVEET:
Which part of the Constitution empowers national Assembly to carry out projects?

Where were you when a senator complained that he didn't get the 500Million other senators got for projects? You really think senators have no say in constituency projects? how old are you?

Free them. They are collecting their own share of the national cake.
Some are collecting their share in offices from Abuja to State capitals, while some are collecting theirs in the bushes

Ezewuzie01:
Alex Otti will disappoint Peter Obi in 2027. Just wait and see. Tinubu has been of more value to his life than the agulu thief.

Otti is smarter than that. He knows that if he dares mention Tinubu or APC in Abia State he will not come back for second term if the elections are free and fair.

Psalmspsalms:
I'm not surprised. Things are really not easy with most people in Nigeria. An average Nigerian in 2015 can be considered as very poor in today's economy.
But still, the youths needs to understand that wealth should come with hard work and patience.

Yahoo yahoo takes a lot of hard work and patience too

Even the Agbadorians didnt expect things to get this bad under Tinubu. Shame wont allow them to admit it

How come only those from Igbo areas of Rivers State are resigning? Wike has ended up dividing Rivers along ethnic lines.
Mr Integrity my behind

Last last, the person wey build Lagos don scatter Nigeria

TINUBU is working. He has given marching order to security agencies to do everything to beg, bribe and 'rescue' the kidnapped citizens while the kidnappers get ready to kidnap more.

Anyone not supporting BAT is a whaling whaler

Like play like play the man wey build Lagos don scatter Nigeria o

SocialJustice:
I hope Atiku is ready to be Obi's running mate now

If Atiku had supported Obi, he would have been a king maker straddling all over Aso Rock today!
He missed a great opportunity to be a statesman!

North extract their gold and sell, it is not illegal. Army and Navy pretend not to see it.
South refine and sell their oil, then it is declared illegal. Army and Navy are unleashed on innocent people for taking their God-given resources.

One Nigeria... two laws.

Forget it. Fact is most of the fierce anti-osu campaigners in public are usually the first to send their relatives in the villages to go 'ask questions' before aggreging to marriage proposals for their sons and daughters.

Fake news! What are they doing with the so called Biafran currency in the bush?
