They are still campaigning.

"The APC governors outcry is not about the plight of the masses but the waning chances of their party."

Aptly put.

They won't have cried if it didn't affect them.

Na today?

How come your handlers keep dissociating you from him and his legacy/policies that you promised to continue?

Confused lot.

...but na d kain tok wey dey vex buhari b dis.

Blazebond:
Peter obi supporters go soon begin quote and scream under this post,they go begin give 100 billion reasons of how we need to vote Peter obi so that Nigeria can become great again,but them nor really know say the reason why them dey cue for Peter obi back na because they are already hopeless and such are always looking out for a savior (messiah),a person that they can pin all their hopelessness on and wish that the person can take them to an imaginary eldorado,they will begin to wail and cry under any post that is dissenting towards their messiah (obi),they will naively and bullishy think that they are on the right path just like the Germans pre-world war 2 thought when they where foolishly gulping the rhetorics of the mad dictator (Hitler) but later when the fall from grace begins,they will start pointing fingers and saying "ohhh I thought this man (obi) would be different from the others o" just like how they are pointing blaming fingers at buhari now.
Let us be honest with ourselves in this country,most of us wanted buhari to win so bad in 2015 because we thought he was the messiah to Nigerias problems,but look at him today,with his fabled stainless record...........who's weeping now.
Vote whomsoever you want but please never ever expect anyone of them to save this country,because this countries constitution and present system of government is seriously flawed.
The real change will come when we do away with this constitution and call for a proper national confab.

Spot on.

Finally.

None of the contestants will deliver Nigeria except the one bold enough to damn the consequences and do away with this destructive constitution.

Problem is who will bell the cat. Cos that person would step on the toes of the powers that be, but would become the G.O.A.T.

lhordspy:
I am not celebrating our misfortune nor giving excuses. Just telling you other countries are suffering for basic amenities and the commonest things person could think of.

Mr macaroni message is targeted at Tinubu not even really the Buhari led government. Whereas since this issue started, Tinubu as been the sole voice lambasting the policies when other candidates are keeping mute or even cheering it.

How is it that you lot compare Nigeria with the West only when it suits your narrative but get worked up when others do same?

All of a sudden Tinubu is not part of this government.
He sure picked a fine time to be "the sole voice against the policies". How convenient.
Truth is many had high hopes in him but the moment he chose to be silent all these years for selfish reasons and even went ahead to campaign a second time for this prez, he lost the charismatic influence he had on most.
How he did not see this treatment/betrayal coming is one for the books

Mr Mac has said the truth. Like it or not.

Anyone who doesn't support your party is an attention seeker.

Anyone who speaks the ugly truth about your candidate and party is a hater.

Pot calling kettle black.

Keep dodging and don't face the truth....it'll inevitably catch up with you.

Oh so tinubu finally found his voice to "side with the masses".

Na today baba day break?

Baba ma ku'se o. E try wewell.

You people should keep deceiving yourselves.

Racoon:
Of course what? Warped prismatic worldview of an urchin. "Muhammadu Buhari, Yemi Osinbajo, and Bola Tinubu represent a triumvirate. They reinforce, reflect, and inflect each other. Both Tinubu and Osinbajo have been important props to Buhari’s ongoing disastrous regime of ungovernance. Without them, Buhari won’t be president. 

They also helped plant, grow, and fertilize Buhari’s autocracy and monstrous incompetence every damn step of the way. In other words, Buhari, Osinbajo, and Tinubu are tarred with the same brush.

People who are picking favorites among these monsters of deceit and fraud are not only clueless, they are also enablers of Nigeria’s progressive descent to the nadir of hopelessness."

"Tinubu, Osinbajo, Buhari: A Troika of Treacherous Villains"
https://www.farooqkperogi.com/2022/01/tinubu-osinbajo-buhari-troika-of.html?m=1

Precisely!!!

Really?

Wailers United.

Now they have the nerve to talk sh*t about buhari....because he's not supporting as expected.

They claim to be master strategists but didn't see this coming from a mile away like every other sane/objective person.

How pathetic.

Since when has their approval or disapproval ever meant anything?

#theproudrubberstamp

History will never forget this bunch.

Invest4growth:
So should he keep quiet over the reality. These are obvious variables we all see. The most important thing for him is to voice out the economic pain points and tell us how he will tackle them. Government tries to manage exchange rate but the reality is Government cannot control what it does not have - dollars. Put one trillion dollars on the market today, it would be taken up. The exchange rate will not become 1:1. I align with Tinubu. As a Yoruba man, you first abuse yourself before you abuse others. So when you abuse me using the same word, then it is meaningless.

How convenient

Walahi...

Sometimes, it's like they assume everyone is daft like them.

Imagine someone saying it's the right time to dissociate himself. Someone who campaigned twice for the same "they" he is now criticising.

Another one said he is giving his enemies the run around. Someone that keeps shifting the goalpost.

At least the real known supporters have deliberately avoided this thread.

There's a fundamental problem really.

Tribalism and Ignorance should be classified as terminal diseases.

Amayabor1:
Lol. Hear how an adult reason because of tribalism.

So, we are supposed to forget that the same party Tinubu is accusing is the same party he wants us to vote for?

I hope you know according to a supreme court judgement, we vote for party, not individuals. I hope you know that APC is what will be on the ballot, not Tinubu. PDP is what will be on the ballot, not Atiku. LP is what will be on the ballot, not Peter Obi. So, we are supposed to thumb print for APC on election day even though the candidate of APC told us how his party moved naira from #200 to #800?

Na God go judge una

Interesting...so how has your apc done better? Has the state been turned to "an industrial revolution state" in the past 7+ years under your leadership?
If not for the desperation of elections, have you ever acknowledged their existence? Empty promises as usual.

Waste of time.

Lies are the trademark.

What would anyone else from the party have said (appointed to speak or not) except to formulate another obvious lie?

Free the guy jare.

He only followed precedence....examples set by his eders.

Gben5:
I have a townhouse with three bedrooms. My office occupies one of the bedrooms, but six months ago, my boyfriend of two years moved in. To protect his five-year-old son and also two elder daughters, our plans to get married have been delayed.

He came to me to tell me that his ex can no longer afford her apartment due to the drastic rent increase and is preparing to leave Accra and relocate to her parent's home. According to my boyfriend, he doesn't want to stay far away from his children and doesn't want to keep his children away from their mother.

He is proposing that they move in temporarily with us. This will mean I give up my office, or he moves in with his ex to help out financially, and both of those options will destroy our bond. What do I do?

Is this a rhetorical question?

You gotta be kidding.
Your boyfriend must take you for a fool.
...and I don't mean this metaphorically or hypothetically or rhetorically or poetically or theoretically or in any other fancy way.

Damage Control.

Time to twist the narrative for the ignorant buffoons who would believe.

Zonefree:
To defend Tinubu is one of the hardest jobs on earth.

Rocket Science is ABC compared to that job o.

Naijanascam:
This is laughable and insulting to sane minds

HA!

These people should fear God nau....even if they have no regards for the mental capacity of Nigerians.

So that's the defence now? Dem miss Road.

This girl is too "clean" for this narrative.

Looks like a city girl who went to her hometown and decided to assist her OGs with pictures to prove.

Buddha3:
The world over, those involved are only consulted if the producers want to use the exact names and details involved. That is the only legal basis for consultations and agreements.

Much as the incident was painful, it does not change the fact there's absolutely no legal framework that mandates anybody to consult the families before recreating the incident through movies, songs or books. What you Nigerians are doing right now is purely tantamount to emotional blackmail.

Do you know there are children today who do not know about the ALUU story? Do you know most Nigerians have even forgotten about it? Since you're preaching decency, can you be honest enough to tell us that you remembered the ALUU incident since it happened to this day? If this movie had not been made, would you even remember those boys? Linda Ikeji should be appreciated more than vilified. She's keeping the memories of those boys alive.

Our prayers and thoughts have always been with the affected families. But this story has to be told, like Chijioke Iloanya who lost his life in the hands of Anambra state SARS officers, like countless other stories.

You sound like a beneficiary or an advocate of Linda...(no offence).

Did you see the video? Did you see where an animal was hitting the head of someone's child continously with a stick and the spasm that resulted from being set ablaze with petrol and tyres?

What memory is Linda Ikeji keeping alive?
The families obviously have not healed. No sane parent who saw that horrible video of the killing has healed...yes maybe life had moved on but that doesn't mean it's been forgotten.
Especially when no one was held culpable as usual.

No one is preaching decency....just that we shouldn't justify wrong when it suits us.

Does the fact that lawyers defend known criminals in court mean its right? Just because there's a legal framework to back such?

Surely, Linda must've consulted her lawyers before doing this and they've assured her there won't be any fallout...but law is not static but dynamic.

Why that exact event? Of all the myriad of problems in Nigeria why ALUU 4?

There was nothing else to make a movie about? It's cos the families may not be buoyant enough to afford great lawyers who would dig up loopholes to be exploited.

We're all entitled to our convictions though.

Buddha3:
Oga, every event that occurs in life must someday be told as a story, whether the parties involved like it or not.

If I reside in Finland and decide to make a movie of the ALUU incident, will these parents come there and tell me to shut it down?

You people should learn to sometimes bury rubbish sentiments and reason issues logically. What's all this noise sef? When books and movies were made about the Biafran civil war, was the entire Igbo land asked for consent as to whether they wanted their story to be told or not?

Una too dey do for this country!

You're the one being illogical and frankly hypocritical.

Put yourself in the shoes of one of those parents. It could be anyone.

How would you like the said movie to be narrated? Without your consent? There's nothing bad in just seeking consent and even compensating the families.

Nobody is saying the movie shouldn't be made....just do it the right way.

World over, those involved are consulted before true events are written or made into movies.

It's unfortunate it's Nigeria else, NETFLIX, FILMONE and Linda would pay through their noses.

I guess its becaue most of the families are perceived to be poor...You can't even try this rubbish with some families in Nigeria

There are ways to go about such arrogance and abuse trust me.

Do unto others as you want to be done to you!!!

Mouth dey pain you?

ZombieSlayer1:
tell the ancient fossil to go and rest like old men are supposed to do instead of trying to force himself to rule us.

You must be very supid to tell your father shutup.

Not supporting Tinubu doesn't mean you should lack manners and be a goat about it.

For your information, I'm not his fan but that doesn't mean I should be rude to others.

This is why you obidients are regarded as crass cry babies.

Ode!!!
Ewu!!!
Akuya!!!

Basicend:
Oga shut up. Tinubu is unfit. He should go and sit down.

This is just wrong.

No justification.

Oldage is inevitable.

This is a very difficult serious case of pick the message and ignore the messenger...hard as it may be.

Abject poverty is the problem not portable... despite my disdain for his lifestyle.

For portable, this distasteful song only brings to bare the rotten state of mind of the poor Nigerian (no generaliszations intended).

Abject poverty has made people lose their senses of worth, shame and become mindlessly religious.

Kobonaire4:
But then again

1.Government won't be throwing money at NNPC in the name of subsidy

2.We actually save naira

3.We reduce our budget deficit by a lot. (To do away with it involves being more productive)

4.Instead of government dashing importers dollars to import, the importers will go and look for their dollars to import...

5.Domestic refining will make more and more sense.

Time the subsidy went...because if we have been seeing fuel scarcity every year since 1990...that means subsidy is not working.

These assumptions are based on a working system.

Yes deregulation is good
But you'll come to find that they are the major marketers and will always find a way to sabotage the whole thing.

Unless we decentralize, which they don't want.

Na wa o. Due consultations with stakeholders since October last year.

He is Sensitive indeed.

I bet he's shocked as well that there's even scarcity.

Mr Shocked Sensitivity.

Yet they have the effrontery to campaign.

Fear anybody who doesn't have shame!!!

And what would that change exactly?

This thing is about principle and circumstance.

Look at them, they've started again.

Tinubu wife na Christian....just like Buharis cook was sold to be a Christian then...senseless submission. Do unto others as you would like them do unto you.

There is definitely something wrong.

Clear the mess in your house before you point at another man's house.

Defend your candidate clearly and justify your sanity, before you point at others.

He who comes for equity must come with clean hands.

Don't sell your soul for crumbs.

Remember your generations unborn while you vote.

sqlPAIN:
Very Good....At least, God has put them out of the missery of living in Nigeria. I wish I could trade places with one of them.

Hmm....Count your many blessings money cannot buy...

Masacre Area 1

What a relief. At least you provided a solution.
Considerate woman.

Not all these Hypocrites.
