It's a shame to address the Nigerian judiciary system like this

We enjoy justice and freedom in other countries but here in Nigeria, it is not the same

I hope that they will not blame the youths should they take laws into their hands

. It is sad but true, institutions take time before they can stand strong, but in a country rife with corruption like Nigeria, it slows down that process...any protest will be crushed decisively, and most likely there won't be a united opposition to his rule

is like you are his PA

Tell him that he will soon return the certificate he is holding!!!

I am not his PA lol , I'm just a realist, and it is also impossible for the courts to remove tinubu as long as he has been sworn in, this is Nigeria, our institutions never reach that level guy, they will keep adjourning the case till baba finish him tenure

You obviously don't know Nigerians.....if he doesn't perform magic and turn all of us billionaires overnight then he hasn't done enough 😁

That mindset and lack of understanding of the challenges government faces is a key problem of democracy in Nigeria

Nigerians should be patient and realistic in their expectations from government, good things takes time, if tinubu is sincere and competent to move the country forward, it will take time and tough will to navigate challenges, 4 years may not be enough for a complete turnaround but with the right steps and decisions taken, we will be on the road to change sooner than later...
Tho i did not vote for APC, they remain in power, i hope they can get their acts right and steer the country in the right direction

Insecurity by Non state actors
This will be a big challenge to the new government...he has to ensure he can tame the vested interest of people who benefit from these conflicts both within and outside the country...
Herdsmen issues can be solved by ensuring proper enforcement of the grazing ban passed by many states,
Banditry, boko haram is an example of too many vested interest, u must cut off the supply chain of finances and logistics to this groups, properly equip the army and police, hopefully some equipment ordered by buhari will arrive , with China, Russia, India and turkey becoming major arms exporters, it opens up more options of arms purchase incase the issue of vested interest becomes a hindrance..

Esn can be solved by ending the herdsmen invasion, ESn draws its legitimacy by combating herdsmen, they will loose more public support if the herdsmen issue is solved, tinubu should strategically handle the MNK issue, i would advise his release under strict terms, he may be placed under house arrest and must discontinue any agitation, also petition the Finland government to call ekpa to order. . track the igbos in diaspora who fund ipob and distroy the supply chain of the finances.. most importantly run a government devoid of nepotism so that everyone can be carried along, Tinubu can be a great president if avoids nepotism and ensures everybody benefits from his government, this will reduce the agitation..

Tinubu never even enter,they don start with excuses lol

we have to tell ourselves the truth, it won't be easy, i am Igbo who voted for Labour party, but we have to face reality and know that it won't be easy

The fuel subsidy will also be a huge challenge, remove fuel subsidy and price of fuel skyrocket to around 750 naira, this will lead to inflation, if the electricity situation in the country can magically improve, then it will help alot, the new law passed by buhari for states to generate electricity will also help...i also hope the Nigerian labour congress will not sabotage subsidy removal by creating instability via protests

The economy will take time, especially as the sharing formula will continue, and state governments continue to be run with no long term plan and inability to generate high revenue by many states...
It is important to note that some polices may take time before the results will be visible, whatever good policies enacted by the current administration may also show results under tinubu which will be a plus...
I sincerely hope some debts incured by this administration can be restructured or canceled...
Some infrastructural project's should be cancelled, not because they are not good but timing is not right...

The new president of Nigeria, HE Bola Tinubu will be inheriting a country that has been badly mismanaged...a country that uses a large chunk of its revenue to service debt, inflation and possibly more inflation if subsidy is removed, insecurity, corruption.. foreign interests e.t.c
Tinubu has a tough job on his hands, it will take time to fix the rot, he will make mistakes, it wont be easy, if he can fix insecurity in his first term , especially insecurity casued by organized non State actors, it would be very good for the country...

During the Arab spring, protest erupted in Bahrain, Bahrain as u know it is a monarchy, the sunni arabs dominate the country at the expense of the indeginous shia baharana people, they rose up against the king, but Saudi Arabia came to his rescue, imperialism mindset will always be a powder keg for instability...

It has been over 20 years since the invasion of Iraq by the USA, while the Americans failed to bring much needed stability after overthrowing Saddam Hussein, it is worth knowing that many iraqis supported the invasion, because mainly of imperialism, the minority arab Sunni controlled the country under Saddam, the shias were happy to see him fall..the kurds were also happy to see him fall..

Under the omar bashir of Sudan, the Muslim arab north subjugated the christain African South till the point they had to pick up arms, the discovery of oil in the south even made things worse ..now today, South Sudan is independent but still not stable, the various ethnicities are vying for supremacy, the dinka, nuer and others fighting each other, the imperialist mindset once again hindering growth and setting us up for exploitation

In Ethiopia, the ethnic tigray dominated the country for so many years untill abiy ahmed came to power , an oromo...we have seen how unstable the country has been , with what I've researched, the tigrayans dominated the country and even expanded into neighbouring amhara regions, lots of amhara people picked up arms to join the federal government to disarm the TPLF....
We must continue to seek ways to solve this mindset especially in Africa, we must find or tweak the current governance system to ensure this cancer can be curbed

Please if you have more knowledge about the geopolitics of DR Congo, kindly share, i have seen that the Rwandan government is supporting their fellow Tutsi in Eastern Drc, there must be something wrong, anyone with more info should share, i am sure the ethnic Congolese people will still seek to dominate other ethnicities in the country, leading to an instability which will surely and rightly be exploited

In Mali, much of the instability today is due to this imperialist mindset, yes foreign powers will always seek to take advantage of instability but we must also look inwards to see our mistakes...the ethnic bambara people of Mali seek to dominate the tuaregs, this has caused so much issues,
Same with Libya under Gaddafi, lots of non arab tribes were subjugated, not even allowed to speak their languages..we must keep seeking how to solve this imperialist mindset especially in Africa where many ethnicities are domiciled in one country

In Africa, there is so much imperialism going on with so much ethnicities wanting to dominate each other, it is in man's DNA to expand and dominate, enough of crying over Western imperialism ,its time to get over it and seek a balancing act with the Eastern powers..
Here in Nigeria, we know who the imperialist are, they continue to seek expansion and control, hmmmmm

Iran , a strong member of the anti-west bloc is also not a saint...the kurds in Iran are under the imperial farsi ethnicity, there are also turks in iran, the kurds are not even allowed to speak their language outside or give their children kurdish names, nobody is a saint

The Russian empire dominated large parts of central Asia, then came the USSR, even today there are still lots of ethnicities in Russian that would want self rule, the ethnic Russians are not free from the ills of imperialism, nobody is a saint..

China dominated much of SouthEast Asia , even Korea, , tibet was conquered, Xinjiang , even a part of china are mongols... Look at China's posturing on the South China Sea, the invasion of india and seizing parts of arunachal Pradesh leading to territorial dispute till today... nobody is a saint
