Politics › 7 Problems Every Nigerian Might Face If Tinubu Returns In 2027 by enemyofprogress(op): 3:11pm On Oct 22
7 PROBLEMS EVERY NIGERIAN MIGHT FACE IF TINUBU RETURNS IN 2027

I respect Tinubu as an elder statesman, and I am not loyal to any political party.

So, what I am about to write is not driven by sentiment, political hatred, or blind opposition. It is based on the realities confronting Nigerians today.

It does not matter whether you support Tinubu, belong to the APC, or have never voted in your life. Whether you are young or old, male or female, so long as you are a Nigerian living in Nigeria, these are seven serious difficulties you should expect if Tinubu retains power in 2027:

1. ELECTRICITY SUBSIDY WILL BE REMOVED

The government has announced plans to end electricity subsidies in 2027. In simple terms, this means Nigerians will have to pay more for electricity.

Remember, the way petrol went from 187 naira to 1400 naira when Tinubu removed subsidy? Same way, the price of electricity will skyrocket suddenly.

The plan to remove the electricity subsidy is already in the cooler and I believe it will be one of the policies Tinubu will implement if he should retain power in 2027. So, everyone should fasten their seatbelt, because it will be a long ride.

Fortunately for Tinubu, this won't affect him in anyway. Remember he already invested 17 billion naira to install solar in Aso Rock. It's you and I that will bear the brunt. Wait for it...

2. FUEL PRICES WILL INCREASE FURTHER

With the removal of the petrol subsidy, Nigerians are now more exposed to changes in fuel prices. Global oil prices, exchange rates, and the cost of supplying petrol can all push prices higher.

If fuel can be this expensive at a time when Tinubu is seeking reelection, imagine what will happen the moment he grabs power again? A litre of fuel might have risen up to 5000 naira before he leaves office in 2031.

Fortunately for Tinubu and his cohort, they don't pay for fuel. They get petrol free of charge. Upon that, they get millions of naira monthly as fuel allowance.

In other news, it is you and I that will pay with our hard earned money. Hope everyone is warming up? Eku imunra o.

3. THE PROPOSED 5% FUEL SURCHARGE WILL BE IMPLEMENTED

Nigeria's tax law contains a provision for a 5% surcharge on fuel.

Apart from the subsidy removal, we'll start paying another 5% tax on every litre of fuel we buy.

Let me explain what this means in simple terms. Assuming you buy fuel of ₦10,000, a 5% charge would amount to an additional ₦500. So for every ₦10,000 fuel, you pay a tax of ₦500, which makes a total of ₦10,500.

Or If you buy ₦100,000 worth of fuel, you pay tax of 5000 naira, that's ₦105,000

I believe that this one will take effect the moment Tinubu is declared winner. Every Nigerian can bear witness to how he loves to impose tax on poor people. This one cannot be negotiated.

4. FOOD PRICES WILL FURTHER INCREASE

In Nigeria, the price of fuel directly impacts the price of every other commodities, including food items.

So, whatever makes the price of fuel goes up more simply means cost of food items will also rise.

I know that food items are already expensive. But we are only seeing SIGNS right now. If Tinubu should win again, we will then see WONDERS, the elder brother of signs.

I'm just wondering how families will survive when its income remains the same but the cost of feeding continues to rise? Hunger does not care which political party you support or if you're same tribe with President. Everybody go line up!

5. INSECURITY WILL MOST LIKELY WORSEN ACROSS THE COUNTRY

Kidnapping, banditry, terrorism, and attacks on communities have become an everyday incident in Nigeria.

We sleep in fear everyday and we wake up waiting for news of the next victims.

Sad to say, these evil occurrences may further advance if Tinubu retains power in 2027.

This is because life will be harder for ordinary Nigerians. And this will increase the rate of crime because people have to survive.

Again, it will be a foolish and wishful thinking for anyone to believe that Tinubu that cannot handle insecurity when he's seeking reelection will handle it when he no longer needs our votes.

Right now, those in the South-East and South-South are still somewhat spared from the menace. I'm afraid the terror might spread to every region should Tinubu return to office.

Meanwhile, Tinubu and his cohorts will not be under any form of security threat because they move about with heavily armed security protocols and they drive in bulletproof vehicles. It is the rest of us that are at risk.

6. THE NEW TAX REFORM WILL BE IMPLEMENTED

Nigeria's new tax laws have introduced a revised system of personal income taxation. This means Nigerian workers and business men that fall within the taxable range will be paying from 15 to 30% of their total income to government.

This tax law is already warming up in the cooler. If APC should win, you already know what the tax master will do now.

Many companies vacated Nigeria because of unfavorable economy. Imagine imposing more tax on already struggling workers and businesses? Chai!

7. GREEN CHARGES WILL MAKE IMPORTED CARS MORE EXPENSIVE

Environmental surcharges have been introduced for certain motor vehicles, particularly those with engine capacities of 2,000cc and above.

In simple terms, more money will be paid to clear cars that are imported into the country.

So, when your dealer increases cost of cars, don't blame him. Na wetin him buy he go sell.

If you are planning to buy car, you better do it now. If Tinubu should win again, cars will no longer be affordable. Just use your money and buy ponmo wey get pepper 😂

THE WAY FORWARD

Let us put sentiment aside for once

A politician is not your personal saviour. He's there to serve the people. You should never defend politicians whose policies continue to destroy your purchasing power because he belongs to your preferred party, practices same religion or from same tribe as you.

Well, every Nigerian has the right to vote for politicians of their choice. But let's keep in mind that for every choice, there are consequences.

If you support Tinubu in the coming election, you lose the right to complain of hardship because the handwriting is clear enough. Even the blind can see.

I know that some people will start asking me who they should vote for.

Let your good conscience and the spirit of God guide you.

I know that, if Nigerians are ready, we will rescue our country.

Power belongs to the people, if we know our right.

A new Nigeria is POssible ✌

When A Revered Emir Spoke Raw Truth To Power & Its Lieutenants

"You are the ones in power, but you have forgotten the common people. Politics has become selfishness, not service."

"Every 4 years you come to my palace with cap in hand, asking for prayers, asking for support. After election, you disappear to Abuja, to Lagos. You don't come back until next election. Is palace voting center or toilet that you visit only when pressed?"

"In my days, politics was about community. Now politics is about one man, his son, his wife, his bank account. You call it Renewed Hope, but people in Katsina are in renewed hunger."

"You are fighting each other in APC - Governor Dikko Radda vs former Governor Masari vs former Governor Aminu Bello Masari supporters vs Abuja boys. All fighting for 2027 ticket while bandits are in Batsari, in Jibia, in Safana killing people. Is that not selfishness? Your people are dying, you are fighting for ticket."

"In my Emirate, 52 schools closed because of bandits - same number Doka mentioned in his article. Farmers cannot go to farm in 12 LGAs. People pay N10m, N20m ransom to Turji and his boys. And you come to me talking about DG campaign for Tinubu 2027? Should you not be talking about DG security for Katsina 2026?"

"Where is Bello Turji? You promised to handle security. Turji is in forest 100km from here. Go and bring him, then come and campaign."

"If You Are Selfish, People Will Be Selfish With Their Votes".

"If you do politics of selfishness - only for your family, your cronies, your contacts - then people will also do politics of selfishness. They will collect your rice and vote against you. They will collect your N5,000 and still vote for who they want. Because you taught them selfishness."

"In 2023, you brought rice, you brought money, but Katsina people still split votes. In 2027, if you bring same selfish politics, they will collect but not vote you."

~ Emir of Katsina - HRH Alhaji Dr. Abdulmumini Kabir Usman CFR

Islam › Lies Vs Truth In The Saudi Case - Know The Full Truth! by enemyofprogress(op): 3:29am On Oct 21
Lies vs Truth in the Saudi Case - Know the Full Truth!

Lies are being spread on social media that they were husband and wife,
they have an 8-year-old daughter, they were Hajj pilgrims...
All of this is rumor!

What is the truth?

On October 14, 2026, the two people sentenced to death in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, were Nazrul Islam Abdul Basir and Siti Akhtar from Bangladesh, and they weren't even husband and wife.

According to Bangladeshi media, Nazrul had gone to Saudi Arabia in 2022 as a cleaner, and Siti was working there.

In May 2023, about 1 month before Hajj, both were allegedly caught by Saudi security forces inside a mosque in Mecca committing immoral acts.

After that, they spent more than 3 years in jail, the trial took place in Jeddah court, and upon being found guilty, by royal order, they were hanged in Mecca on October 14, 2026. Their bodies were sent to Bangladesh on October 18.

Why was the punishment so severe?

Every mosque in Mecca has its own sanctity; it is connected to our Prophet ﷺ.

Under Saudi Arabia's "Public Decency Law," such acts in a mosque are strictly prohibited, and violating the sanctity in a Mecca mosque makes the case extremely serious under "Ta'zir," which can carry the death penalty.

According to the Saudi Ministry of Interior, the charges against both of committing "fi'al al-fahisha" inside the mosque—that is, a serious sexual act of an obscene nature / adultery—were proven.

Bangladesh's State Minister for Foreign Affairs Shama Obaid Islam herself confirmed this on October 17.

So the question isn't where they were from; the question is—will you respect the purity of Allah's house or not?

A mosque is a place of worship, not shamelessness! Whoever does such a thing on Mecca's sacred land will surely face punishment.

Stop spreading rumors; understand the truth.
