Some people are just playing with their old age and life if this story here is true.
I wonder if Nigerian politicians Brains do tell them nobody sees or knows tomorrow.
They are just blinded by the stupidity and power of the public office and wealth it holds

For those of u who think money is everything in life,this is a big lesson,the rich also cry, nobody has everything all in life,it's because many of the poor haven't got to the rich situation,
A good example is your president who visits France almost on regular basis for treatments they will not tell u, many of u Nigerians don't have contentment,yorubas call it (ITẸLỌRUN)
that's why u think money answered all things in life

What of those countries that pray far less and not as religious as Nigerians and are doing far more better,the fact is there is too much hypocrisy amongst Nigerians,we are far away from God,many are just pretenders,we know the truth but keep deceiving ourselves,God is not two faced,he knows the hearts of the hypocrites

Not in Nigeria,as if we don't know what will be the final result,abeg make we hear word

The fight is on,nobody is indispensable.who cares? That's their own headache,when the going was good,who do they remember apart from their own selfish interests

Always consistent saying it the way it is, fearless,bold and a realist

Congratulations the CBN GOVERNOR with the highest exchange rate in the history of Nigeria 😂😂😂😂,but I thought the value of your currency exchange rate also determines the performance of how your monetary policies is properly managed by the CBN governor

Of course the average Nigerian cherish celebrating mediocres,cheaters and failures, that is why the worst,the corrupt,bad eggs and people without integrity and scruples will always direct and control the system and nothing gets better,same old story and status quo remains.only a dumb person continues to do same thing same way and expect a different result

Yes for him and his family and people chopping and getting positions under him.after all those are the people he has raised their standards

When a system celebrate and worship money irrespective of how the money is made,u will see a very poor, unskilled layabout,the next is the person starts flaunting wealth and gets celebrated and given all manner of titles,they are all over the system,na because their way to wealth hasn't been exposed.politicians loot,steal money from the system,na to praise the person who steal pass.
Until we stop celebrating wealth from criminals and political criminals there will be no end to bad acts like this

The Big mess he inherited are from same party now,what of other juicy opportunities Tinubu is enjoying as president?we don't hear any complains about that,he bought a plane,yatch,new cars and so on,in same economic mess bedeviling the same system.its only when it comes to doing things for the people we hear complains
Same excuse BUHARI gave for his 8 yrs tenure,

Absurd things is what sells well and attract attention in Nigeria


quote author=eepeepook post=135553209]How did this man become an influencer? Nigerians are very jobless.[/quote]

Only in Nigeria a criminal go still get the liver and
effrontery to go to court and challenge to reclaim what he used resources he stole from the system.
Every aspect of the system is so filthy,messy and shameful, from top to bottom,the judiciary is not even an exception

An average Nigerian is so daft and doesn't Read well and blinded by those crumbs he eats or get from his pay masters,the topic refers to the president,not legislators or any other people,so stick to the topic and not beating about the bush,if u want to defend your pay master,let your defense be based on his achievements

Only a fool will believe those legislators are getting those humongous monies for the betterment of the masses. We know how the owner of Lagos plays his politics. Everything is just for 2027 elections.

Ask yourself this question....who will hold them accountable for how they spend those money? Is it you or the man who gave them the money?

Be wise bro[/quote]

Only failures look for excuses and other means to justify their incompetence , cluelessness and lack of capacity

Success is relatives.
So,if you say govt fails - what happened to your - -_Local govt,
-Your State Governors ( your Emperors),
- Your National Assembly Legislatures - who now got N1B for Reps and N2 Billions for Senator - as Constituency Projects - since Tinubu came to Power but their Constituency Projects,if they are really Serious- now have elongated Funds- for their respective Constituency.[/quote]

A dysfunctional society doesn't practice what is right, they do the opposite,tell me what we do right in Nigeria apart from opposite, absurd and irrational things,we practice autocracy, hypocrisy,blind loyalty and stooge system of government.not also forgetting AGBEROCRACY AND THUGGERY backed up with INEC rigging and loyalty to party in government

A master failure praising his successor and failure in chief 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Of course the write up written by someone appointed, feeding and benefitting from his principal,na only him and them go see all the juice and hidden chop chop benefits their oga and them don enjoy wella under the administration and country 😂😂😂😂😂

Una just dey understand the Nigerian dynamics?all animals are not equal,once u get rich to a certain level in Nigeria, whether u are in government or not,u become untouchable in this money worshipped and glorified country
Money answereth all things in Nigeria,
Una no see the kind caliber of people going to aso Rock to visit Tinubu? Cubana,mc Oluomo, Davido, and co,make portable get money rich that level,he will be welcome in Aso Rock and also become untouchable
Can anyone tell me how many poor unrecognized naija person don get that opportunity?

Nigerians surely deserves the leaders they get, after all these are the kinds of people they elect as their, presidents , governors and national Assembly members.
After milking and benefiting from the system by impoverishing the people,see the kind of things they say about the people

To follow the absurdity and dysfunctional trends that has turn nigeria and Nigerians in the opposite direction as a norm now in the system.doing the wrong things as normality in the society

Can an armed robber rob another armed robber,I dey laugh in Chinese language 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

It is the civic duty of anyone in government to develop the state they govern,the money they spend is not their inheritance and doesn't belong to them,it is money that belong to the state and the citizens.they are not doing you any favor by spending on these infrastructure and developing the state.they are there to serve u.nigerians need to know this and stop this praise singing and ignorance


uote author=ProudlyLagos post=135530170] so proud of my city Lagos……there is no room for mediocrity, Lagos is progressing forward and so happy I’m alive to witness the progress we have made so far, surely there is so much to be done. But we are definitely on the right track, eko oni baje o…..btw proudly lagos [/quote]

Nigeria is a criminal enterprise I tell u,all these politicians without scruples, integrity,good intentions and empathy,these set of people will fail woefully in a decent,normal, functional society when it comes to holding public offices and elections.but have become super stars in a dysfunctional, abnormal and degraded,money worship and glorified system like Nigeria
What an irony

The so called elites and the people in government in Nigeria will never want things to be better in Nigeria,can u tell me anything good these greedy, selfish people have done to better the lives of the average Nigerian?
Nothing,they will always keep the naira weak to the dollar because they derive a lot of benefits from the fall,
Only the private industry and stake holders can bring about any reduction of benefits to the ordinary Nigerian, because they know it's the people who patronizes them,but government? No way

Those criminal,looting leaders and political office holders have done far more harm to the country,s name, resources and well being than the so called Yahoo boys.as FELA will call them AUTHORITY STEALING pass armed robbery

Hold your leaders accountable u say?not in Nigeria, Nigerians are too gullible and docile to hold their leaders accountable,the Keke and POS business u mentioned are too satisfying and comfortable for the gullible citizens to take as consolation while top politicians and those in power loot and take away billions belonging to the people.
Nobody wan die or sacrifice their lives for any good revolutionary change in naija.thats why the suffering continues

steeltrust:
Let me share my experience since I moved to America. Over here, every tier of government—local, state, and federal—has its own responsibilities and functions independently. This system makes development reach the grassroots effortlessly. But back home in Nigeria, everything is tied to either the state or federal government, leaving local councils powerless and ineffective. No wonder governors and politicians are more powerful than institutions like EFCC and ICPC.

Take Chicago, for example. The local government here handles its own revenue collection, builds and maintains roads, runs hospitals, and creates a business-friendly environment that generates jobs. You’ll never see the governor of Illinois coming to Chicago to inaugurate a local road or hospital project because each level of government knows its role and delivers without interference. Even law enforcement is decentralized—Chicago has its own police department, and Cook County (similar to our local councils in Nigeria) has its own sheriff’s department. Crime is tackled effectively because responsibilities are clear.

Meanwhile, in Nigeria, soldiers patrol highways harassing civilians, while the police are either underfunded or compromised. Here, soldiers don’t even engage in civil matters—in fact, they respect the police more than the other way around. The system works because accountability is enforced. Break a traffic rule? Your license gets suspended. Do it again? You might never drive again. And if driving is your livelihood, well, you better find another job. The law doesn’t play favorites.

Back in Warri, I remember a church buying two acres of land just to build a massive auditorium while 99% of the community had no functional companies to provide jobs. Graduates end up driving keke or doing POS business because there are no real opportunities. Yet, when a governor builds a single road, people start shouting, "Our governor is working!" My brother, is it road we will eat?

Our politicians are wicked—plain and simple. They travel abroad, see how things work, and yet refuse to implement the same systems back home. Instead, they keep us divided with politics, religion, and tribalism while looting everything in sight. Meanwhile, we spend our time on social media complaining instead of taking action. We’re too sentimental, too forgiving, and too quick to celebrate mediocrity.

In 2025, Nigeria is still struggling with basic electricity, good roads, and functioning hospitals while the rest of the world is advancing in AI and technology. When will we wake up? When will we demand real accountability? These politicians are destroying the future of the next generation, and if we don’t act now, things will only get worse.

It’s time to stop the noise and start holding people accountable. The system over here isn’t perfect, but at least it works because the laws are enforced. When will Nigeria learn?

Houses they will buy cheaply and share amongst themselves,as if they care about ordinary Nigerians.only mugu,s will believe this jokers
Una go soon hear the full story in coming months ahead

The truth be told,una no get the money to establish a national carrier.if the money is there we will not be hearing this

Forget all the 4 refineries,they are all dead and buried by NNPC and government,they will only continue to use them to steal and loot,they don't have the liver and capacity to fix them
The solution is to sell them outright to a private company
It's a cash cow and opportunity to loot by those in power

Which question? Nigeria as a country is completely dead and buried by its leaders, Nothing good can ever come from this selfish, greedy and wicked system,it's not a cause,it's a statement of fact.dangote,s private refinery has been up and running for almost a year now without any glitches or issues of shutting down.no fuel queue everywhere in country for almost a year now.
That is a business run by one man.
What business or enterprise has any of your leaders run privately so far successfully before getting into government,apart from stealing, looting and taking what never belongs to them from the Cookie jar
