Foolish people.. they were warned but wanted to form woke and cool.. awon 'omo ale', 'akotileta'.
Una get luck say the mad man lose election, Nigeria would have been like hell fire.

If the Igbos can cast over 96% of SE votes for their tribesman out of tribalism, then I have every moral right to cast my vote for the man I see as better option. Any bastard that has problem with that should hug transformer.

I don't know why President Tinubu gave someone like Umahi Ministerial portfolio.. I am starting to see the Lagos to Calabar highway project as a huge sham.

Umahi doesn't have good record in Ebonyi where he was Governor, talk to Ebonyi people and you'd be shocked about the negative comments on this short and arrogant man. All the concrete roads he built in Ebonyi have developed cracks, translating to shoddy jobs done and huge resources wasted on badly executed projects.

That woman he ordered security to throw out has more political value to APC than Umahi and all Igbos in PBAT's cabinet combined.. people who delivered less than 5%, in some cases less than 3% of votes cast in the SE States are now feeling important.
The President is getting it wrong with some of his appointees just like the case when he was Lagos Governor. Umahi is a disaster waiting to happen in his government.

You would have done nothing.. lo sun oga.

Your evil agenda to further empower Fulani herdsmen to be killing farmers across the country didn't come to fruition. Y'all are the same.

At least, sanity is gradually being restored compared to the previous man in power who did nothing to curb killer herders.

Don't mind Mr. 'gbaju e', the fake Agulu messiah . It's okay for IPOB and co. to be locking Igbos up every Mondays, making them unproductive but vigil is the reason behind unproductivity in Nigeria.

The fear of Yoruba exit is the beginning of wisdom for them.. our security is in complete jeopardy because of the nepotism in favor of North by past Presidents. Incompetence, sabotage etc. became the order of the day.

Instead of the oppressed ones down South to be rejoicing that Yorubas have taken over, they are busy exhibiting hate, envy and jealousy for better by far Yorubas.

Nothing concern me..
They want to islamize Nigeria, it's a religious war.. Se oju iya yin to n ja.

You allow con men standing in front of pulpit brainwash you to vote for wicked politicians.

Marriage no easy o.. one spouse might be chaste while the other will be fvcking around codedly.
The best the cheat can do is use protection or get treated for STDs before getting intimate with their spouse.

I don't see the point.. she left a diamond to be chasing stones.
For a man to decide within himself that he'll take a woman as his bride means she is of value to him, whether or not the bride decides to make herself valueless is strictly her choice and she must live with the consequences of her actions.

Yorubas have woken up.. no more free lunch for outsiders anywhere in Yoruba territory.
Awolowo's undoing was he being too loving, kind and tolerant of hateful invaders to the extent they started seeing Yorubas as weak people they could trample on.

With the new regional system of government unfolding before our very eyes.. everything in Yorubaland MUST be under control of only Yorubas. Whoever is interested in politics should go back to his home region and State. This is our position and it will not change.

Serves the Nigerians living there right.. maybe this will open our people's consciousness to channel our strength and resources to develop Nigeria.
If not for bad leadership, what would make anyone want to go to Libya?

I'm delighted the Nigerian national team called their bluff and returned home.. such disrespect to the national colours of Nigeria must never be tolerated.

'Born to rule' in the mud.. they are still in shock that such a clamp down on them could happen.
Atiku don dey do eye service, do dey form familiarity with the Asiwaju of Africa. Gbogbo yin ma to gbon.

Afenifere should know that Nigeria back then is not the same with Nigeria today. When GEJ was in power, he exhibited the worst kind of hate against the SW. He didn't just marginalize Yorubas but was picking out Yorubas from Federal Agencies for sack, to replace with Igbos . It's just that Yorubas are docile, if not our people should have risen to fight such injustice. At a point. Igbos took over almost everything in Abuja, all Financial institutions and whatnot in this country were under their grip
When Buhari came into power, he removed and replaced them all with Northerners, reason their hate for the man grew beyond bounds. Throughout Buhari's 8years, the North held power firmly. That was when Yorubas got appointment and were allowed to remain as head of Federal Agencies.

Imagine what GEJ a Southerner did to South West compared to what a Northerner did.

The President should appoint those he knows will deliver and give results, not giving appointments to those that will sabotage his government.
Look at the ones calling themselves APC in Anambra who all worked against APC for Obi now crying that lady Bianca got appointed as Minister against their wish. They are just starting with their crocodile tears.

GEJ did far worse during his tenure as he marginalized Yorubas and appointed mostly Igbos into key Agencies and parastatals. The only notable Yoruba appointed by GEJ was Mr. Akinwumi Adeshina so why are the SEners making noise?.
They even went as far as taking up all the slots meant for Lagos State and were filling them with Igbos residing in Lagos , neglecting the indigenous people. First to do no dey pain.

The next POTUS.
It's just their support for fagg0ts that I don't like.

Very good question.
The politicians that gave them Russian flags to wave and be looting properties should come out to answer this question. Forget the drama they were acting, those guys (be it adult or minor) are very deadly.

If the Presidency succumb to their blackmail now, the politicians using them will see government as weak and plan other means to oust the present administration. That's North for you, bad politicians using their gullible masses for dirty politics.
Don't be surprised that they all have voters card with two or more kids.

Your IQ needs to be very high to decipher all these you mentioned.. finally, I can confirm that I'm sane in an insane world.
It will be easier for a camel to pass through the needle eye than for an Igbo man to ever become president.. they see everything from tribal lens. It's the reason IPOB, UGM etc. are killing them and locking them up like livestock every Mondays in the South East. Even Fulanis won't lock their cattle up in that manner.

If we talk now, they'll say we are too brutal.. Yorubas shouldn't allow Igbos see South West as safe haven, our people ought to chase them back to their region so they can understand and appreciate the concept of peace and security in nation building. If Yorubas didn't ensure South West is relatively peaceful, will Igbos be trooping into SW en masse to settle while their own region continue to decay?. Common sense truly is not common.

The market women will be like.. Gov. Nwifuru, ma fi tax pa wa na (no use tax kill us na).

Last time I checked, noone banned the Igbo people from staging peaceful protest. Y'all were only restricted to your home States and region as you can't cross river Niger to South West and be fomenting trouble.

When Yorubas want to protest, our people stay in South West to do so..

When Hausas want to protest, they do so in their region in North.

It's only Igbos that will leave their home region to South West and be claiming constitutional rights to protest.. that nonsense can't work anymore.
Igbos should assemble in Awka or Enugu or Owerri to voice out displeasure with the situation of the country of keep quiet forever, you will never be allowed to destroy Lagos State a second time

@OP Are you just realizing that the Agulu packaged fraud is a bigot?.. the dude isn't even hiding his bigotry. I've pointed it out several times here but it's like most Nigerians don't pay attention to detail.
You see the problem with Igbos generally is that they look at everything from tribal lens, they won't ever take responsibility for their actions and won't see wrong in what other Igbos do. They'll readily cover one another up not minding the offence committed. It's the reason they are all demanding for Kanu's release as if FG just picked a random Igbo man from the streets and sent him to jail. They just don't know when to stop their bigotry and victim mentality (no offence intended).

Don't be surprised that the 'gbaju e' man won't condemn the erring Igbo lawmaker but let any news come from South West or North and see the m0fo rush to drop criticism on X.

Before she was carrying overload, now the load is moderate.
Na selling point of some girls this one go reduce so.

Late Ojukwu's wife appointed as Minister of State, Foreign Affairs.. I guess that will pacify SEners.

Dougad:
One of the few true things this man has ever uttered.

I dread the rate of criminality we're going to experience in this country within the next decade. It'll be like what we've never seen before if we don't begin to correct this massive poverty we're currently experiencing.

The problem of Nigeria is that the rich class or let's say okay ones (those that can afford a decent living) do not care about those who can't i.e. the lower class.
You'll see banker or lawyer or Engineer just want to mind himself and his family alone, drive good cars, smell nice and all that, not knowing the lower class they are neglecting today will become a serious security threat to their offsprings tomorrow.

It's the sad story of people like Akpabio feeding fat at National Assembly whereas Nigerias are being pushed into abject poverty and untold hardship through bad policies.

Bandits that their elites will later empower with Ak-47 to go and be killing Southerners and those in Middle Belt.

When I see likes of Atiku feeling like something I don't know.. I always shake head, these guys ought to hide their heads in shame.
Highest number of out of school children, almajiri child beggars, infact begging is now a norm in the North which is fast spilling into the FCT.

This was Lagos then when the economic refugees and village dwellers from across the river Niger had not swamped into Lagos. No selling of okrika, selling of fake shoes and bags at every bus stop and corners of Lagos. Back then progressive Yorubas and other smaller ethnic groups in Lagos were coordinating themselves well, till the devilish souls started fleeing their enclave into Lagos.
Now you can't sleep with two eyes closed cos one miscreant from Anambra or Abia is likely waiting for nightfall to remove brainbox from parked cars that they will carry to Alaba to sell as tokunbo parts.

Oh Lagos.. how I wish sanity can come back to the State.

That road is not that bad na, just bends and elevated terrain.. I so enjoyed the journey I had some months back from Jos to Akwanga en route Abuja.

May their souls rest in peace.. truly no small journey.

Some of you are so ruthless in your evil against Dangote,

Look at you describing perfectly how NNPC can destroy the only functional refinery in Nigeria just because of spite.

Killing of business is not a way to fight the monopolistic tendency of every business.

And funny how you trust the same NNPC, who have 3-4 non-functioning refinery under them to help you finish of the only functional refinery we have.

This is a "media war" or better still "war of narrative" choose your side carefully.

The reason we all (including myself) don't like Dangote, is because of the selective favouritism he has enjoyed over the years by previous government.

So if you want to fight for the people against him, then reverse the favouritism and let other businesses enjoy the same privilege as well, we still need those companies you know

While I agree that those in government have their faults too, let's face the fact that Dangote's own is too much.
If you chop small, you relax.. not that you'll want to chop the whole Nigeria dry.

There are sectors begging for intervention of FG such as the "pulp and paper" used to produce our notebooks, textbooks, jotters etc. Did you know that Nigeria imports over 98% of the pulp used to produce paper?. What we can produce comfortably here in Nigeria with trees and wood everywhere. These are some of the areas government can look into and leverage on to create jobs and employment for Nigerian youths.

Just do the maths.. compare the population of Nigeria, the number of pupils and students that write on notebooks with the number of textbooks we buy in our bookstores.. then check the gain Nigeria can make from the pulp and paper sector.

Our politicians are just doing anyhow, no concrete plans or interest in the country's development.

Lastly, I wish Dangote well but will never support his business model of always wanting monopoly and to chase others out of the market. Such evil practice should have no place or enjoy support from well-meaning Nigerians.

This is false.. Igbo women and children were starved of food by Ojukwu. Awolowo and Gowon made sure they catered for the Igbo civilian population during the war but Ojukwu and his lieutenants in biafra army were stealing and diverting all the foods sent from Nigeria to their own homes and Ojukwu's bunker.
We learnt Ojukwu used starvation of Igbo children as a tool of propaganda thinking the international community would come to his aid and sell him more weapons to continue killing Nigerians, but failed.

Gowon has/had an Igbo wife with half Igbo kid.. Ojukwu on the other hand has only Igbo wives, shows he is an ethnic jingoist.

Hw will lose in court and that will signal the beginning of his end.. Nigeria is too big for one greedy man to pocket.

This is not hate game or anything but battle for the soul of Nigeria.. using the term Energy alone for a delicate product such as PMS is misleading, price of PMS determines a lot of things in Nigeria e.g. transport fares, prices of staple foods and other essential consumables, workers wages and salaries, cost of living and overall standard of living.

johnayo01:
This is not even a big issue.

All this can be addressed while the refinery is working at 100%

Or are you saying we should ground the refinery because of this trivia issue

You don't know who Dangote is.. he buys anybody buyable as far as he is able to kill off competition.

The time to stop the wicked man and fight for the soul of Nigeria is now!

Mark this down today, if Dangote succeeds in ending issuance of import permits to marketers, PMS that ought to be sold between #500 - #600 will sell for #2,000 - #2,500 per litre in Nigeria before ending of 2025.

Nigeria doesn't need people like Dangote.. he can go to hell for all we care. What we need is for FG to revive our State owned refineries and revamp all our industries from textiles to steel, etc. That way, there will be jobs everywhere and economy of Nigeria will bounce back to life.

Forget that guy Dangote, na barawo banza.

Holuwathoby:
It's dangerous to monopolize that sector for again for Dangote. He might start producing substandard product at exorbitant prices without checks.

All his products are substandard.. the NMDPRA Chief attacked Dangote because he has priviledged information that others don't have.
The man Dangote ought to be blacklisted by the FG.. over 95% of those working and managing his refinery are Indians. No local content, no jobs for Nigerians, yet he will be looking for ways to cheat the system.

How I wish the Minister of Interior can revisit the expatriate tax and expose people like Dangote. Only one man packed foreigners into Nigeria to be working in his company, what can never happen in India or any saner clime.

I don't think there is any man as cruel as Dangote in Nigeria.. the man is just too greedy for my liking.
When I first read the PIA, I knew instantly the Northerners in the Petroleum Ministry were planning to hand over the downstream petroleum sector in Nigeria to Dangote, part of the reasons they won't allow our State owned refineries to function. I don't know why Southerners in Federal are just fvcking docile, is it that you people's education is substandard or what??.
The Dangote man wants Monopoly of every sector in Nigeria which is very very wrong.
This is the worst businessman to ever come out of Africa.. It's obvious his wealth is questionable.

Just take a look around the country, how many Southerners do you see being pampered and pushed like Dangote?.. Nigerians don't know that over 85% of FG concessions are going to this Dangote alone, the records are there in Ministry of Finance, yet he comes out publicly to lie that he didn't get any support from FG.

Now I've been vindicated on some of my posts here.. companies in Free Zones don't pay taxes to either FG, State or Local Govt. because they are considered as technically "not within Nigerian Customs territory".

If NMDPRA wants to finish Dangote completely, they should impose import duty and levy on all his refined petroleum products, let's see who will go out of business.. Very evil man that derives joy in impoverishing Nigerians for his selfish gains.

Whoever is the judge of the Federal High Court should throw out Dangote's suit as it lacks merit or substance.. Nigerians deserve fair pricing, Nigerians have right to life and Dangote can't take that right away from us by selling delicate products such as Cement, PMS etc. at exorbitant prices. He should export his PMS, AGO etc. to other countries, we don't need them.. we don't mind importing our petroleum products from saner climes with sane producers till we finally get it right and have our own refineries working.

We say a big NO to Monopoly!
