Beijing still owes the U.N. $455 million even after injecting almost $850 million this week into the organization during a visit by Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi.

Keyamo is 100 percent correct...

The issue with one-sided stories regardless of who is telling them is that they cannot be trusted to be absolute truths. Now, this guy was not on ground. He didn't know if the hospital had doctors neither did he know how many doctors there were in that hospital. He is claiming that because it was a Sunday, ALL the doctors went to church. According to him, the problem is not that the hospitals are grossly understaffed. He is bringing a 'religious' sentiment into a clear systemic problem.

I have observed that people commenting how religion is a 'problem'. But, does it make sense when someone says that in Vatican city, doctors didn't man their station because 'they went for mass?' Or that doctors in Saudi went to the mosque hence they didn't attend to emergencies?

We overlook systemic issues and blame what is not.

If there was one doctor covering that hospital like in many cases in Nigeria and he chooses to be off on a Sunday, would he be wrong? Even where they have enough hands, people must rest. This demand of self-sabotage is the same as the President asking us to make sacrifices for the country.

Summarily, I believe this person is being insincere and is being sentimental. Anyone who hears him will be wise to truly consider the matter

Dangote greed is killing Nigeria. Crude oil have crashed internationally

The right thing was for the government to pay dangote refinery the refining cost. And the government control the price for Nigeria market as a kind of subsidies. Not allowing dangote to buy crude refined and sell anyhow to Nigerians.

Why is dangote not accepting refining cost. What is he afraid of? For domestic market he should accept refining cost from NNPC while that is dyed to red or yellow. The one he wants to produce and sell to international market should be a clear colour.

And least the fuel can be traced.

Government should never allow him to sell to domestic market. That is already affecting Nigeria and it economy.

Before the Iran war oil was 70$. And at the peak of the war when it reach 160$ fuel jump to 1400.

Now crude is 80$ fuel is still selling for 1400. What rubbish excuse?

What ever he thinks is good for the refining cost no matter how high it is he should tell the government and Nigerians. Not under any excuse of crude oil price as disguise to be increasing fuel every market day. The economy is dying.

But there was no party primary. The party opted to make the other lady a forced conscensus candidate allegedly because she had funded the party in its early stages. I'm no fan of Aisha Yesufu but you can't accuse someone of failing in a process that never took place. It's like mocking individuals like Tuggar for losing the APC gubernatorial primaries when the president is actively handpicking his preferred candidates across all states. Tinubu has only succeeded in setting back our democracy by decades.

Dangote has turn out to be a curse to Nigerians rather than a blessing

Non of his products is affordable or subsidized
For common Nigerian as a way of giving back to the society
I’ve never seen a heartless capitalist like Dangote

Even Elon and others always find a way to subsidize things for their citizens

If Dangote was the sole producers of phones
Phone would’nt be accessible to Nigerians

Very greedy and selfish man
Calling himself capitalist

Let's start by correcting your impression that Dangote is on subsidized crude. He is not. He is buying crude from oversease, and he also relies on domestic crude

Your domestic supplier has to sell at international prices, because OPEC and because they compete with the crude drillers abroad. If they cannot pay competitive salaries, and pay for maintenance and upgrades to the rigs....PLUS...government gets most of its revenue from...you guessed it, every crude oil sold in Nigeria to domestic and foreign suppliers. A subsidy on domestic crude would be like offing the goose that lays the golden egg...revenues would fall, and more loans would be taken

You should stop living on the fantasy of cheap fuel

Ghana has two working refineries, as does Niger republic. NO subsides, both worked, for at least 2 decades.

Against this backdrop, the 650,000-barrels-per-day Dangote Refinery has dramatically reshaped Nigeria’s downstream petroleum sector. The facility reportedly supplied nearly 80 per cent of Nigeria’s petrol consumption in April 2026 after reaching full operational capacity earlier this year.
NNPCL argued that the Dangote Refinery has not produced independently verified evidence demonstrating that it can consistently meet nationwide fuel demand without disruptions.

dangote dey show NNPC shege
but something no make sense here. you supply 80 percent in april but NNPC say proof no dey, so who is the liar here

She currently serves as the Deputy State Chairman of the APC in Lagos State, a position she attained after previously serving as the party’s State Assistant Woman Leader.

Outsider as in he has never been a member of APC? That's true

Thing is, aside Agege, where APC has a very stronghold due to Obasa's impact, I can't mention any other area where APC can be assured of winning "hands down"... Don't really know of Ikorodu axis

In all, may God keep up alive and healthy to witness it all and give us good leaders, Amen

Yampotatocarrot:
Yeah, they've always captured every part, no be today... Just that results always show they're not fully in control

It's not about having secretariats everywhere and gathering people under canopies at the secretariats to share rice to them with 2k

APC will have to work really hard to retain Lagos... Funsho Doherty is currently the man to beat in Lagos

The street isn't smiling at all plus it seems SanwoOlu's government is now on autopilot, just rolling without gathering dust... Government officials are currently on the street penalising companies for not filing tax returns, even when they themselves will tell you they don't understand the tax law

I just pray God protects Mr. Funsho

i always hate these types of DULL face when i see them.

corruption,corruption. they live in the system.

They want to split SS votes which are now solidly behind Tinubu

Warning!!!



The South should not allow these Northern politicians to keep deceiving them
These people you're seeing are all from the North, for a purpose to snatch power from the South.
They know what they are doing. I know what they're doing.
The South should nit fall for this gimmick.
