Yes and he will rule over you as your president and none of your generation will ever be president.

Not over me. I am an American citizen of long standing. My Nigerian passport expired 2 years ago and I threw into the Hudson River. I was home for Christmas in December with the blue passport. Nothing concern me with una.

Who dash am president…dey play o.. dey play

That's why I said ''A Tinubu presidency''. It is not over yet, but even if he successfully rigs himself in, he will have a heart attack from all the mockeries from all over the world. Wait until Americans start their own. They will add ''drug addict president'' join am.

Aldol:

If Tinubu your president is mocked then you are all the cause of it. You have been mocking him here, on twitter,Instagram etc so live with it because you attracted the embarrassment

Not my president. And we will mock him more because we do not deserve him. The next 4 years will be hell on earth for him from mockery from all over the world. I have also seen Cameroonian websites mocking him and comparing him to Paul Biya. Those who voted him would have to clean up. Nigeria is a failed country. Period.

He has not even been declared president let alone been sworn in and the international insults have started. A Tinubu presidency will have to create a ministry of foreign caricature management. Tinubu is going to be a global embarrassment for NG. What a failed system.

No surprises. ECOWAS are West Africans like Tiinubu

EU says it's rigged. South Africa says same
I say same too. Who is Ecowas?

Lessons for Igbos in Nigeria outside Igboland (copied from Facebook)
It is time to rethink when you travel home annually after every 4 years (election year). Annually, every one of you head home during Christmas, and some in August (August meeting, if it still exists). Then you return to your state of residence after the new year celebrations and try to vote there during the election that happens every 4 years. In the process of voting, you are prevented from doing so, insulted, asked to go back home, disenfranchised by the local (state) governments and their thugs, have your businesses burnt, and in many cases killed. Have you noticed that Buhari and other politicians go back home to vote in their villages or towns? Have you wondered why they don't vote in Abuja? Even, a lot of poor northerners in the South travel home to vote. I see them packed in lorries heading up North. A group of them were interviewed on YouTube and they said they have their PVCs back in Zamfara and must return before D-Day to vote.

UmuIgbo, it is time to rethink. Every election year, I strongly suggest that you suspend going home during Christmas/New Year. Instead, travel home a week before election in February and vote in your village or hometown. This is a sacrifice you can make once in 4 years. By doing so, nobody can harass or disenfranchise you on account of non-indigene-ship in your own hometown. Nobody will threaten to throw you into Lagos Lagoon, and nobody will feel you are influencing the politics in their own state (which is a stupid feeling, but we are talking about a failed country). That is how you make your vote to really count. That also helps you to be involved in electing good governors and state representatives for your native states.

We keep hearing that the SE has the least voting population in Nigeria. This is because you scatter your votes all over NG and most, if not all, of those votes outside the SE are wasted votes because you are either disenfranchised or rigged out.
If you keep doing the same thing, you get the same result back each time.
One of my blood siblings who lives outside of the SE returns home to vote in our hometown - he transferred his voting location since 2017. Good job, brother.

update?

You are kidding, lol! Perhaps some figures will help put it into perspective.

Delta with Area• Total 17,698 km2 (6,833 sq mile and Population (2006 census)• Total 5,663,400 had GDP (PPP)• Year 2007 • Total $16.75 billion

That's poor. And many states are much worse.

From your numbers, GDP per capita of Delta is a paltry $2,957K (compare to the US GDP per capita of $66,900) . That's truly dirt poor; and yes most Nigerian states are much worse than Delta.

Delta received 9,330,887,136.39 details here https://www.nairaland.com/6472867/nbs-oil-producing-states-nigeria

This is the highest allocation for all the oil that Delta produces? This is equal to 21.2 M USD. This is in the range of money that US cities pay to victims of police brutality to close a civil rights case. Nigeria is indeed a poor country. George Floyd's Family got 27 M.

poverty in Nigeria

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2020/11/poverty-and-widening-inequality-in-nigeria/

The 2019/2020 Nigerian living standards survey released by the National Bureau of Statistics, NBS, shows that 82.9million (40.1 per cent) Nigerians are poor. Disaggregating this data further unveils how poverty has burrowed into the space where most Nigerians domicile – the rural area. A larger proportion of Nigerians live in rural areas while slightly above 40 per cent live in urban centres. While the national poverty headcount rate is 40.1 per cent, the rural has 52.1 per cent as against urban’s 18.04 per cent headcount rate. Furthermore, the survey shows that there is a significant geographical inequality in poverty spread. More people are poor in the northern part of Nigeria compared to the southern part. Of these, the northeastern part of the country returned more poverty indices. Adamawa (75.4 per cent), Yobe (72.3 per cent), Sokoto (87.7 per cent), Taraba (87.7 per cent), Zamfara (72.3 per cent), and Jigawa (87.2 per cent) all have percentages of poor people far above national average.

Something is wrong with data collection and reconciliation in Nigeria

MrGoood:

Thanks for your contribution this really help, I am waiting for someone that will mention the exact amount he or she save last year

A lot of us do. It depends on what you mean by savings. I know Nigerians who save more than N20 M equivalent every year in their 401K or 403B retirement savings.

With this, nothing concerns me with Hausa-Fulani food

Nigeriabiafra82:
The indigenous Hausa farmer and his cash crops are gradually being eliminated. The Fulani man has definitely nothing valuable to loose. His primary objective is preparation for war (jihadi conquest). He does not have tomatoes in his menu neither does he care using onions. Same thing goes with other perishable, consumable food items. The burden rests completely on the Hausa farmer. Presently, the Fulani man is enmeshed in war drive primarily to destroy the financial economy base of the Hausa man. He employs the deceit of threat against the Southerners to strangulate the business platform of the indigenous Hausa farmers. The Hausa farmers are loosing their wealth amidst the callous blockage of market exports of their cash crops which they have seasonally labored for. In a bid to consistently subjugate the Hausa man, the Fulani man pretends to be defending him.

Agricultural goods worth millions of naira have unpreventably been destroyed. The indigenous Hausa man is totally at a loss while the Fulani man remains satisfactorily unaffected. His main concern is on the war for conquest and

Very insightful. Thanks

BastardWike:
I hate it when a set of people will decide to commit suicide. Now let's face facts:

1. North claims to have up to 100 million people.
2. There are only few industries.
3. Very little commerce.
4. Very little or no IT penetration.
5. The region has very little storage facilities.
6. The region relies basically on agriculture.
7. 87% of Northerners are living in abject poverty.
8. Millions in the region are currently displaced and starving.

Check the facts above and tell me if this guys are not suicidal. It takes a matter of days for perishables like tomatoes, onions, cucumber etc to go to waste. So, how are the majority of Northerners who rely on proceeds from agriculture going to survive?

For Southerners, let's look at the facts below:

1. A man with money who couldn't afford to buy cow meat can decide to buy pork, fish, goat, 404, or chicken etc.

2. A woman that wants to cook stew can decide to use only tin/canned tomatoes, use very little or even no onions, use factory processed oil etc and still cook a delicious stew! On the alternative, Igbo people have a stew they call ofe akwu, a stew that is delicious and nutritious that is cooked basically with palm oil.

3. Plaintains, yams, cassava, cocoyam, vegetables etc are produced in the South and these are the staple foods consumed in most parts of the South.

In this scenario above between Southerners and Northerners, who are the ones going to suffer more with the so-called food embargo?

There has been claims that these foods are being moved to neighbouring countries, but smart people know that's a big lie! Which neighbouring countries please? Benin to our West are even looking for who will buy theirs, Cameroun to our East have enough locally grown foods for them and with a relatively small population can't buy up to 5% of what the North is selling! To our North we have not just two of the world's poorest countries in Chad and Niger but they also have tiny population that can't buy up to 5% of what is grown in Northern Nigeria, so who are the ones buying??

The North already has 87% poverty rate which is among the worst in the world, what is currently going on could make an already terrible situation to spiral out of control.

There is nothing more to add. Gospel truth.

And the lamentation continues
