APC propaganda. The glorified airfield in Ikeja is a national shame. Let's not even imagine the monumental fraud commited in delivering that glorified pig pen.

Some of you sit inside your warped imagination and talk about world class while having not stepped a foot outside Nigeria.

No Nigeria airport qualifies to be classified as such.

If it is not bad news about Nigeria then it is a propaganda?
If you ever use the MMA you will know there's a huge improvement.
Nigeria is getting better, even the wilfully blind will be forced to see it eventually.

Exactly bro.its absolutely madness to exchange 1 dollar for 1,600 naira.

It is not, the Ghanian currency does not reflect the strength of their economy. They are doing what Nigeria did for many years. The reason we are not like South Korea or Indonesia today.
Tinubu broke that jinx and with time the economy will come back to life and nobody will even talk about the exchange rate against the dollar.

A lot of bloodshed could have been averted if the Deputy prime minister had been sworn in. The history of Nigeria could have been different.
No reprisal coup
No Unitary government
No civil war
No decades of military rule
No Murtala and Dimka
No OBJ
No Abacha
No option A4 Maradona
No June 12
No Ipob and Biafra separatists
Etc.
People in power should always be conscious of the long term effects of their actions.

Oyan everywhere.

This is not a bad idea. We have to consider our unique circumstances and incorporate it into our political system in order to forster a sense of unity and inclusiveness.

"there is no art to find the mind's construction in the face" - William Shakespeare. It is impossible to know someone's true intentions or thoughts simply by looking at their face.
In your own case, Uche Ugumba was a man on whom you built an absolute trust.

A lot of Russian men are dead in Ukraine. I like how the Chinese can smell opportunity.

Not true, senseless lie and a blatant exaggeration. None of the so called critics have been able to explain to us what they would have done differently given the same situation Tinubu inherited.
All they do is use hyperbolic words, scare mongering and paint doomsday scenarios that exist only in their heads.

Most tax on earth... Lolzzzz.

I know.

More to be done but definitely on the right track.

The remaining 81% are often the loudest when it comes to making demands from the government.

I hope they're not planning to give the kids Instant Filled milk or Dairy Creamer because last time I checked, Full Cream milk is very expensive. Children need Full Cream milk for their protein diet.

It's going to come from the government owned dairy farm!

I bet it will taste like catfish

Though you chopbeleful you still dey salivate over the poor seal.
Like catfish ko, like goat meat ni.

Good2go1:
Why in a rush to commission a small section of the completed? I weep for the kind of leaders we have in this country

It's a road not a factory. The completed section can be put to use right away, even a section of a factory can be commissioned.
Not everything is to be criticized.

Very good initiative, no industrialization without good technical education.

Borrow2222:
Propaganda!

This is 2025; such nonsense news doesn't fly anymore.

You guys should change your tactics.

Useless clowns.

Still holding on tight to the bad news that are not forthcoming.
The good news are here already......food prices are coming down so much some folks are complaining!

gidgiddy:
Let's hear word. Northern troops stayed many years on Yoruba soil ensuring that one Northerner or the other kept ruling Nigeria, from Gowon to Murtala Mohammed to Buhari to IBB.

Yoruba land was already overrun by Northerners long before Ojukwu, and it stayed overrun long after that.

Agreed, but we should have substituted that for Biafra occupation? Carve Lagos out of Yorubaland and appoint a Biafran sole administrator?
I need answers o.
I doubt Gbarebo will even try this abomination.

gidgiddy:
Slave mentality is a terrible thing

Except when the Iboman is the slave master? Biafran troops on Yoruba soil indefinitely? Not even Mr Macaroni will agree to such abomination.

Arostar2023:
Which China is sharing technology with you? Which China is helping you?

China is indeed sharing technology, at least much better than the west.
Tesla was the first to come, they refused to set up a battery manufacturing company. They still see us as suppliers of raw materials and consumers of their finished products.

Sunday2021:
he have remaining 2 years, if he has put Nigeria in this mess for only 2 years in office how miserable will Nigeria be if tinubu reach 4 years in office.

He already put Nigeria on the path of growth. Unfortunately if you are one of those who are expecting him to distribute rice to you like you are a refugee, you will probably not see it.

Educationalserv:
making it productive how? By consuming more foreign product like 130 m USD plane ,3 bn naira Ford car and always in France
Approving food Import.
This statement and Tinibu actions are a contradictory.
He just. a Failure that must be sent back to Lagos

Damned if you do and damned if you don't. Aren't you the same folks who said Tinubu wanted to kill you all with hunger?
Now, he shouldn't have approved food importation!

SarkinYarki:
You really want to compare Korea to Nigeria?

South Korea GDP per Capita is 34 thousand dollars

Nigeria GDP per Capita is a miserly 800 dollars under Tinubu

Korea GDP 1.8 trillion dollars

Nigeria GDP 180 billion dollars

South Korea Inflation 2.1 %

Nigeria inflation 34%

South Korea poverty rate 14%

Nigeria poverty- rate 52%

Korean minimum wage : 1.9m Naira

Nigeria minimum wage : 70k Naira

Korean Electricity: 144 Giga Watts

Nigeria Electricity: 3800 Mega Watts


There is nothing to compare here please

Exactly my point, given what you mentioned above don't you think the Nigerian currency should be performing even worse?
By the way, Tinubu has been president for only two years, you cannot hold him responsible for the level of our GDP against Korea.
This is exactly what he is trying to change, to make Nigeria more productive.

1USD = 1367 Korean won does it mean the Korean currency is doing badly against the dollar?
This is a country that exports way more than Nigeria.
All these roadside economists sef.

KnowAll:
No they had a referendum. In the 1950’s all those English speaking areas were part of the Eastern Region in Nigeria. They had representatives in the Eastern house of Assembly. But the fear of the dominance of the Igbo made them sign up with French Cameroon thinking they would have a leverage in Cameroon than in Nigeria. The French Cameroonians promise them federalism. But by 1971 they abolish Federalism for Unitarianism hence their problems today.

If they could have waited till 1966 when states where created out of the eastern region they would have their states and today they would have be benefiting from the 13% derivatives giving to oil producing states. Unfortunately all money made from oil as they are now a Unitary country goes to the central government who spends most of that funds in the French areas to the detriment of the English Speaking areas.

They have themselves to blame.

You are absolutely right. Their main reason right or wrong was the fear of being subjugated by Igbo.
The "Cameroons" in NCNC was about them.
