Switched planes and allowed the journalists on board to continue on the likely fatal flight.
That is Trump for you, a coward to the core.

I can't believe Davido is so naive. I hope the elections are peaceful, fair and free. Even if it wasn't there's absolutely nothing Trump can do about it.
We have to start having trust in our own ability to do things in the right way.

omoredia:
i dont believe the security agencies under this terrorist regime

I bet you trust Mr. Acid more. Anyway, that is one mentor or leader you will never see again.

Passionnn:
Somehow, with our advancement in education, it has not shown in how we appraise iasues.
Some people who commented earlier are trying to refute these claims. Yet they want a better Nigeria

A better Nigeria built on lies and senseless exaggerations?

nedekid:
Yeah Nigerians are poor joined with smartness only in a criminal way.

Being poor and being a thief are two completely different things. Not all poor people are thieves and not all thieves are poor.

nedekid:
Defending terrorist in the name of politics?

Oga as far as there is poverty in the land caused by those bunch of criminals, scenes like this will be a regular occurrence. And yes bridges may collapse, trains could derail, electricity distribution may get worse because poor people will harvest the steel used to build the rail, they will uproot the cables to distribute electricity, the iron from bridges they will dig out, this is not about politics but just economics of life.
In poverty critical infrastructure will be attacked and vandalized. Remember when gov of Lagos state fixed the fountain at Tinubu Square years ago at Lagos Island, a beautiful sight but in the middle of an area without running water, poor people etc, the outcome was that the water fountain was turned to bath tub, where people wash cloths, where thy wash their bum bum after defecation etc.
Go and check in coutonu or Accra if citizens are breaking up rail or digging up bridges for iron.

Is Nigeria the only country where people are poor? Some people in this country are simply evil.

geoworldedu:
Omorr, whenever you lay down the foundation of poverty, multi-dimensional wickedness will follow. Be careful not to lay down corruption, which is the foundation of poverty. If you do, generations forever will partake in it and also wear wickedness as a cloak.

You are making an excuse for a very wicked crime. If the bridge should collapse even if there are no vehicles on it what about people below it?

Safyqueen:
Congratulations. Up Dangote. He is Zionist agent in Africa anyway.

Zionist agent ko, Zimbabwe agent ni. There's wisdom in being quiet when you have nothing sensible to say.

A fully authoritarian regime will look like North Korea where you can be sent to the Labour camp for not cheering when the leader is passing by.
Let's see what the penalty will be for some of you who remove iron reinforcement from bridges.
Let's see the penalty for irrational and abusive critics like Rufai.
Let's see even if a website like Nairaland.com can even exist in a totally " authoritarian" Nigeria.

Flangelo12:
Man wey no get sense.

He agrees it is double the price in Europe, yet he insists it should be lower in Nigeria for the kind of country it is.

Why didn't he say it should be lower in Europe?

Once una see oyinbo, you don get validation be that.

God bless you. The way these people think is just crazy. This is why France was making more money from Burkina Faso's resources than the owners of the resources themselves.

Why it failed? When was it ever successful?

Didn't you try this and lost the last time? What do you call the guy who repeatedly do the same thing over and over but expecting a different result?

Tinapa man talking about focusing on what is important! How would he know? He wasted billions building something nobody wanted to use.
People are already using Lagos to Calabar highway.
He spoke about swamps, I bet he is not aware of how the Chinese are building on almost impossible terrains.

BigYash:
Ogo shvt up e. Do you know how many farmers left their farm land because of the menace of herdsmen and kidnappers?
Do you know how many farmers are dead already by this insecurity in the country?

This guy is doing well,good. But you saying an average Nigerian doesn't see how blessed the country in agriculture, is trash..

Basically, we've been having herdsmen problems since decades ago. Because this problem started decades ago.
I know a doctor who sold his clinic to Japa to unknown and uncertain future. When you ask them why they will tell you they are trying to secure the future of their children, really.
There's always and excuse and unfortunately for many it doesn't always work out as planned.

lordm:
Yet the average Nigerian doesn't see how blessed our country is

They know but they want to become rich with as little effort as possible. Like trading forex and crypto currencies.
We now have a symbiotic relationship with these set of Nigerians and crooked politicians who continue to convince them and also exploit their ignorance that only the government can can solve their problems.
I can bet my last kobo that the Kenyan guy will make millions and end up employing Nigerians to work for him.

Neoteny:
She no even fine.

She's got the kind of nose that'd be full of visible nose hairs poking out

Lol, really? Why the bitterness now? They are not hurting you or anyone.
I had to go back and look at her nose. Na wah.

DeLaRue:
So projects that were widely publicised, and approved by the National Executive Council as far back as April is now the subject of a 'leaked' document.

There's zero controversy here, other than election is coming, and the usual noise makers must make a storm in a teacup.

The three railway lines are assets of the Federal Government, so MOFI, the Ministry of Finance's asset management company is a rightful government entity to manage the projects.

The Ministry of Transport doesn't have the exclusive right to manage all federal government projects, particularly as these projects were promoted/initiated by the 3 state governments involved.

The thing tire me o. What exactly is controversial about this?

Dialpad:
Are you kidding ? Fox controlled by democrats

You have the time to reply to these people.

Nigeria dodged a bullet by not voting for him. I guess everything else will be put on hold while he is in the forest chasing terrorists.
We have people who were trained at Sandhurst and West Point but they are not good enough to fight terrorists but only him, the Agulu superman can do it.

South Africa has been kicking sand in our face lately.

3 in 4 of Nigerian youths are not normal. They only want to get rich trading bitcoin and forex. They all want to get rich doing nothing basically.
The remaining one quarter will be their governors and senators in the future.

anonimi:
A house of cards that grew the economy to the biggest in Africa?

It’s been three years since Tinubu removed subsidy on petrol and dollars, but he is borrowing more than PDP presidents and unemployment is worse. So what is the balablu bulaba clueless clown doing instead of resigning?

The economy was rebased, not that Nigeria produced a pair of shoes more than the previous day before the economy was rebased.

anonimi:
The prosperity that was achieved by PDP presidents before Tinubu begged Buhari to make Jonathan a one term president

What prosperity? Subsidized prosperity with no connection to real production like more industries, more jobs, more infrastructure etc.
With Subsidized dollars and Subsidized petroleum products etc. What exactly was driving the economy?
It was a house of cards. Thank God Tinubu had the courage to put a stop to it and start building a real economy with a real foundation.

A real economist with a real grasp of what is going on. There was a guy with animal husbandry certificate on TV the other day crying over his own ignorance.

AdolfHitlerxXx:
Ah... Chineke. But like my good friend, Mugabe once said....

Lol. Did he really say that?

Because the news is not about 50 children being abducted and taken into the forest. If it was, they would have been all over it. Why this is so is a mystery to me.

All the mumu Nigerians who were trying spin the news against the security forces.
I guess all these people volunteered to be tried and sent to jail or possibly to death.

Kobojunkie:
He did say it, and yes, the US also needs Israel. There is no denying that.

Needs Israel for what?

esnbrutality:
The person that opened the thread is a TINUBU supporter...and you dont call IT out, but come to me to spew rubbish .

Remi TINUBU is NOT a mother and doesnt have what it takes to be a MOTHER. Period

You are not even qualified to judge that. She never claimed to be your mother.

educatedfool:
The phone is outdated, the wigs are worn out, but the debt is still getting stronger

This is what happens when social media validation costs more than financial literacy.

😆

esnbrutality:
She is a biological mother to children she have birth to.

Show us your benefactors child, let alone children.

Nonsense

And this is something that could affect your life personally as a Nigerian?
Something not quite right about Obi and his supporters.
