More private players are thrown under the bus with no end at sight .
If petrol sold at 550 naira and with lesser demand and still queues are returned ,we are in deep shit .

Buhari has really destroyed Nigeria .

Southern Nigerian politicians follow World Bank and IMF guidelines ,while Northern politicians follow the old soviet guidelines of shutting down borders and other communist ideas etc .

The correct path way is to follow fellow developing Asian countries like India, Indonesia ,Thailand, Vietnam and their development model to at least get to their level .China is too far ahead to even mention in Nigerian context .

India has the biggest refinery in the world and one small city in western India (population of 400,000) has more than refining capacity than Metro Houston which is the worlds energy capital .While India imports 80 percent of crude to process .

But you hardly hear it . The western Media dont want you to hear about it as they want to continue western hegemony or so called rules based orders .
They tried with China during their Rise in 2000s and as China is under single party rule and strict censorship ,that game didnot work out .

Africans exposed to western media and their narrative believe them .

The reason for this long post is Nigerian politicians and economists should stop ass licking western or soviet model of development and start focusing on ASIAN model . The whole world economy is shifting gradually to Asia .

We need to learn lessons from China ,India ,Indonesia, Vietnam etc and remix the ASIAN MODEL to African settings for better prosperity .

Whenever you see Yorubas speaking out against Tinubu and his dodgy past, you'll have a little hope that Nigeria will look better

The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, CP Idowu Owohunwa, has disclosed that late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba aka Mohbad, began vomiting and developed goosebumps after he was injected three times by a nurse, Feyisayo Ogedemgbe, on September 12, 2023.

The Lagos CP disclosed this at a press briefing on Friday at the state Command headquarters, Ikeja, Lagos.

Owohunwa was giving preliminary reports of investigation conducted by the police team to unravel the circumstance that led to the death of Mohbad.

“As of today, a total of 26 witnesses have been interviewed,” the CP said.

He said those interrogated include Mohbad’s father, mother, sisters, brother, wife and manager among several others.

The CP said Mohbad was brought in dead to the hospital, and he was certified dead by doctors on duty on September 12.

According to the CP, the nurse, Feyisayo Ogedemgbe, who was invited by Mohbad’s friend, Ayobami Sodiq aka Spending, to inject the singer at his residence, administered three injections believed to have led to the chain of reactions that eventually led to the singer’s death.

“Mohbad began vomiting and developed goosebumps after the injections,” Owohunwa said.

Na him send Tinubu go forge certificate?

Government should impose import ceilings on goods we don't really need, we must drastically reduce our imports. If we don't demand dollars, it's value will drop. QED.

A certain Rauf Aregbeshola was there before and the only thing he did was declare public holidays. Kai! Buhari really had incompetent men.

LegendHero:
After this Atiku local conference, what next?

Tinubu still eating Amala and Ewedu in Aso rock and still the president of Nigeria.

Na only online the noise end. Even 2027 which Atiku is preparing for will still end in tears for him as Jagaban will defeat him one more time and retire him completely.

Atiku the clown calling on his fellow losers for solidarity. God bless Kwakwanso tho, na only him get brain among the trio.

I think Biden isn't planning on getting anything major passed till after the election in 2024. Well outside Ukraine aid.
But, you have a good point.
I do think Americans (though the electorate can be daft), at this point understand the chaos Trump brings. So, overall I think they'll get it. And I think most Republican Congresspeople get it as well.
But, we'll see.

budaatum:
There will be chaos if dump were speaker because chaos is what dump does. Good thing is he'll behave like he always does, and most parents wouldn't like their children to be like him so wouldn't support him and neither will most educated well brought up children, so only magas will vote for him and there just aren't enough of them.

That said, there's likely many non-Americans who wish to see America humbled who might work hard to influence his win I guess.

IjeBos:
This is a misunderstanding of all this. Yes, you are right that Trump as speaker will cause havoc for the country. But in terms of an election, it will help Biden. Right now Biden is the incumbent, so Trump can "run" as the "outsider". The minute he takes a speakership role, he'll be equally responsible for legislating. And then Biden can compare and contrast leadership styles. Trump lost in 2020 because he was chaos incarnate; watch the chaos that ensues as Speaker, like shutting down the government. In terms of what's good for the country, the Dems would hate it, but in terms of pure politics, it's a Godsend for Dems.

Also, Republicans won the house in the midterms by flipping Dem held seats and through extreme Republican Gerrymandering. The courts have reversed some of that gerrymandering. Such that, based on the seats the Republicans won in 2022, going into 2024 just based on the court ordered district changes, they would lose the House. Now add the fact that they will now be competing for those seats in a General Election? They'll most likely lose the flipped seats as well. Why you ask? There is a greater turnout in General Elections where people are voting for President. And those people that turnout, generally just vote for the same Party as their Presidential pick(a lot of people don't spend the time to research each candidate). So, flipped House seats in Dem districts in a state like NY will most likely look different in 2024 with a greater turnout given Biden and Trump will be on the ticket. And ask yourself, do you think Trump is going to fare well in a state like NY?

PDPGuy:
When you consider Trump’s popularity amongst Republican voters, the House GOP may have no choice but to amend their rules to accommodate a Trump Speakership
