Stop wishing evil on the whole country. Join the military if you need them to take charge of your life affairs

Don't be stupid and conjure imputations out of thin air. Where in my post did I me too military or taking charge? Bleep off and enjoy your shortlived Yoruba dance of shame. They will continue that shameful dance when the tune changes to martial music.

Martial Music beckons. And it will be very lovely in my ears.

At this rate all I want is to wake up one beautiful morning to the sound of well-composed Martial Music. And it must happen.

The only surprise is that it happened sooner than expected. I mean the rift between the so-called Ikwerre Hitler and the SIM Card without network.

Stupid of Fidelity Bank. You can't stand in the way of a moving train.

This Jonathan's mumulity is getting on my nerves. Some of us have not recovered from how he foolishly gave up power to these marauders in 2015. Yet he is doing sme sme eye service trying to please the same people.

tamdun:
And Jonathan,he filled his govt with igbos...

You disgusting piece of Yoruba thrash. Assuming you're right, which you're not, is Jonathan am Igbo man? If he "filled his Govt with Igbos", can he be accused of ethnocentrism, since he himself is not Igbo? If your useless Tinubu fills his government with Calabar people or Benue people, would he be accused of being tribalistic?

You amala idiots are so disgusting to me these days.

LegendHero:
I would love Tinubu to be the king of Anambla.

Should we just depose the Obi of Onitsha and crown Tinubu Igwe?

You can masturbate to Tinubu's picture, especially when dressed in Igbo attire. That would relieve you temporarily.

You jobless Yoruba retards can only be pitied.

Of course you will mention me again to spill rubbish, because it is your calling to be foolish. But I wouldn't bother to read it. Shame.

Some of you nitwits can ask stupid questions.

You should probably agitate for elections to be abolished and then we can institute an absolute monarchy. Go and crown tour Tinubu as King or Emperor of Nigeria.

A bad tree cannot bear good fruits.

Uninspiring, criminally tainted idiot. Always issuing stupid statements through stupid proxies.

Why not come out yourself to address the Nigerians who supposedly 'elected' you?

Yeye dey smell.

Puremind1225:
The market is not dirty, they obviously closed to it for the reason best known to them

These provocations would get to a head soon. Then they would see where it leads.

I blame the Igbo political leaders and elite. They are so self centred and slavish, hence encouraging these things. Look at the fat, good for nothing, sloppy fool called Ifeanyi Ubah for instance.

Miracle2020:
who let the dogs out? Just go and find out?
Don't forget that Buhari sacked a CJN.
You cannot sack who didn't appoint. I hope your empty skull now have something to ponder.

Ode. Na me wey answer you I blame. Now get lost, forever.

Miracle2020:
mention one senate president that was not nominated by the president aside from Saraki?
Secondly, I don't know how old are you, but go and find out CJN is appointed by the president.

You're very stupid for your senseless innuendo about my age.

You bloody illiterate. The president "appoints" the CJN. Really? So you don't know that the so-called "appointment" is STRICTLY based on nomination by the NJC, and the NJC's nomination is ALWAYS strictly by turn by turn seniority? Why can't the president appoint any Supreme Court Justice he likes as the CJN?

Only fools who think they are 'educated' cannot read between the lines.

If the demented rodent who posted this thinks it is a dent or a "memo" to Obidients, then it speaks volumes about the mindset of the idiots who queued behind the wasteful and immeasurably corrupt Tinubu.

So somebody who was running for President of Nigeria has a reputation for frugality, miserliness and stinginess. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Really? Does Nigeria need a spendthrift and wasteful N500m a week hotel bills lavishing idiot, or a stingy aka gum who would use our scarce resources prudently?

Now we know the real enemies of Nigeria.

It is a reflection of Nigeria itself, so there's no point blaming Nairaland per se.

All of this madness started during Jonathan's administration, circa 2010-ish, and was spearheaded by Yorubas who hated the 'Ibo' Jonathan for purely tribalistic reasons. Things went downhill from there.

The Igbos, like the rest of Nigeria, merely stepped up to repay in kind, especially with the Yoruba foisted disaster called Buhari, and now the disgusting bastard they call Tinubu. It will only get worse.

The only solution is a clean break from the status quo. Interpret that however you want.

Rubbish. The president doesn't 'appoint' the Chief Justice, but he controls him. The president doesn't 'appoint' the Senate President, but he controls him.

All these muke muke suggestions indicate either stupidity or mischief. None of these things would ever work.

We need to DISMANTLE the fucking constitution and start from the scratch. Either disintegrate the fucking country or at the very least, restructure it into a confederal/regional arrangement where the heads of each region are stronger than the so-called president. Let every region have their own INEC, their own CBN, their own police, their own EFCC, and so forth. That way, ojoro cancel. Enough of tribalistic Presidents making their ethnic group feel special.

ILoveNG:
I hope we never have a president like Jonathan again. Forget the tribe he comes from; as an incumbent, he lost in 21 out of 36 states, and that speaks volumes, regardless of how you try to spin it. The fact that others didn't perform as expected doesn't change the fact that he's clueless, unfit for the presidency, and better suited for the vice-presidential role he was initially picked for

After eight disastrous years of Buhari and over six more miserable months of your bastard Tinubu, you're still here blabbing like a disgusting fool. You Yoruba elements would get what's coming to you.

Sick and tired of hearing one stupid Yoruba name after the other in these appointments.

nairalanda1:
Yes, because Nigerian economy is reliant on JUST OIL...and when the oil price crashes, we borrow to stay up, and when it rises, we pay off our loans, and then borrow more to replace the revenue iused to pay off the loans we borrowed

Every Nigerian leader has done it. That is why since I was born, our economy has always been in crisis.

Want to be free of the crisis? It involves hard choices that if I mention it here, people will abuse me, so make them enjoy APCPDP. Power for change!

Tinubu or is it Thivbu is borrowing because the alternatives are total removal of subsidy, and fuel selling above N1200 and extreme tax measures, and removal of subsidy on power, with the DISCOS setting price, and massive floating of the naira, so much so that naira reaches N2000 per dollar...but he wants to do partial, and partial because the full thing means...HARDSHIP

Every Nigerian leader has known the above...but they all wanted to be elected....

Remove subsidies bla bla. But the president and his few aides can squander N500m+ on hotel bills for a meaningless voyage to America for a few days. Their motorcades can be as long as ever. No attempt to empathise with the masses by showing that even the leaders are 'suffering'.

You people are not serious.

The real hard choices are institutional reforms, not removal of subsidies. Brutally deal with the Labour laws and the constitution for that matter. Disband the useless public service/civil service. It is unsustainable that we have hundreds of thousands of bastards masquerading as 'federal government workers' who actually contribute nothing and add zero value. Sack these bastards, let them go and die if they want to. After all, the majority of Nigerians are self employed.

Everybody enjoys subsidies, which is better than just a few unproductive fools enjoying fat benefits for doing nothing. Cut the cost of governance. Eliminate wastage. The savings would be 10 times what we spend on so-called subsidies.

Monetize, monetize, monetize.

Anything that isn't monetized, at the end of the day, is not worth it.

God forbid that somebody is known by millions of people. Entertains millions of people, but doesn't have ordinary $1m in savings from his fame and talent. This is not ideal at all.

When the chips are down, money is everything. If you don't have it, then the world would have the opportunity to 'catch cruise' with your predicament.

In simple terms, fame without fortune is a curse. Avoid it at all cost.

Usmanovic95:
You made some salient point no doubt,with all these issue you list ,our go-to solution will be a military takeover as they are the only one who can make these rigid reforms in a short while. But can you vouch they won't be worse than these dictators we are criticizing? I can't tell

For me I still have a little believe in democracy,we are only bereft of leaders who are ingenious , sincere and some technical nous on how to change the status quo of our country from compnsuption to a producing nation,then half of our problems is solved.

We need a benevolent dictator whose personal lifestyle and values inspire confidence among the masses, which is almost impossible to get now. Our military is completely useless now. Most generals in any reasonable post are billionaires from corruption. The mid ranks among the senior cadre are also useless and corrupt, doing unprintable things for 'good posting' and connections, so they too can be in a position to amass wealth. The decay is system wide and holistic. Nigeria is bleeped.

It is not like the earlier days when some 'righteous' majors or Lt Colonels United by a common vision and common values can rally their men into action based on shared ideals. Now the only prevalent ideal is to 'share money'. That's what got a useless bastard like Tinubu there.

Look at Peter Obi and ask yourself how many of his commissioners and other political appointees during his spell as governor rallied around him during his presidential campaign. They didn't because they know there would be no money to share. Unlike the idiots who Mass around Tinubu claiming to be his beneficiaries that he 'made'.

I now sadly acknowledge that Nigeria's severely compromised and damaged system would never allow good men take charge. Obi isn't the 'goodest' man in Nigeria, but trust me, he is the goodest man in the entire Nigerian political class across tribal lines. And I know exactly what I am saying. But the system is damaged beyond repair; compromised beyond redemption, so people like him stand no chance. It is a miracle and a testament to what he is made of that he came this far.

Look, at this rate, nothing can save us except a revolution - could be a war or whatever - that would leave sorrow, tears and blood in its wake. Nobody prays for that. But whatever country that results from that situation would be better off than this nonsense we are enduring as a country now. It would be like a phoenix rising from its ashes, refreshed.

Peaceful change is impossible as it stands, so you know the only alternative to that.

Judolisco:
no be dpo offend... Na him boys

E be like say you no read the complete news here. No make me vex this night.

Collyweed:
I was one of PO's cheerleaders when he was governor because I liked his prudent, program based approach to governance. However, I didn't support his presidential bid because I don't believe that anyone no matter how competent will be able to dig us out of the hole we have found ourselves.

We need fundamental structural and even constitutional reforms to surmount the challenges we face. I hope to be proven wrong but this is just the beginning of our troubles. If and when a) Ukraine and Russia get tired of killing each other and b)Saudi Arabia is able to extract the security guarantees it needs from the USA, oil prices will crash, That is when our real crises will actually begin.

Your post is the most confusing thing I've read this year....

This is confusing. Since you didn't support his presidential bid, which of the presidential candidates did you support, bearing in mind that you don't believe any of them can dig us out of the hole? If you say you didn't support any, then that will be dishonest.

If and when a) Ukraine and Russia get tired of killing each other and b)Saudi Arabia is able to extract the security guarantees it needs from the USA, oil prices will crash, That is when our real crises will actually begin.

This right here is why I believe Nigeria is cursed. When oil prices are high, they tell us why subsidy on refined fuel is unsustainable. Why oil prices crash, they tell us that government doesn't have enough money to function. So head or tail, we are bleeped. Good or bad, we are bleeped. This is confusing. What sort of country is this?

What does "removal" mean? Does it mean that he will be 'removed' from the Police Force completely and made to face trial for extortion? Or does it merely mean that he would be removed as DPO of the division and simply redeployed to yet another division as DPO to continue his madness?

We are not serious in this country.

Bastards that just wanted power for its own sake - for showoff... For aggrandisement and pizzazz... without knowing what to do with it.

StOla:
Yes naa.

Obi won Kano, Ogun, Ondo, Borno, Sokoto, and Zamfara.

Infact, Obi won in all the states, while Sowore was 2nd runner up in all the states.

This delusion must be the purest grade.

You're the deluded one. Typical ronu nuisance.

See how you lumped Ogun and Ondo together with the likes of Kano, Sokoto and Zamfara. The point is that nobody else voted for your foolish BAT outside much of the South West and Yoruba infested places like Kwara and segments of Kogi. Which aboki will carry his hand to vote for your Tinubu in Sokoto or Zamfara? Why? All these entitled and myopic ronu imps can be irritating.

Don't delude yourself that he won anywhere in the core North. Atiku cleared the core North, yes. But Obi bested your useless BAT everywhere else except core Yoruba states. And Obi cleared Lagos, cleaned South East and South South, cleared the middle belt, won almost half of the votes in places like Adamawa and Kaduna, and got 25% in places like Bauchi and a number of Northern states with significant Christian populations.

I'm not even supposed to waste time with people like you.

MKO would be rolling in his grave. By the time Bat's surreptitious links with Abacha's people is fully uncovered, those who still have their brains intact would recoil in disgust at the kind of character that Nigerians allowed into Aso Rock.

Don't forget that Abacha's main launderer, the Chaaagourys, have been long associated with BAT. Don't forget that one of Abacha's bagmen is currently Bat's Minister of Budget and National Planning.

Continue. Nigerians will learn the hard way.

Still find it difficult to believe this stuff can happen in broad daylight. And it seems females are the primary victims.

Better to avoid boarding 'along the road' and ensure you use the designated bus parks. Best still, if you can manage to afford it, to mostly use Uber.

Seefinish:
I will give it to Mark because he was matured in handling national issues.

Matured is the word. He was indeed matured in demeanour and in his general NASS leadership. I miss his era till this day.

David Bonaventure Alechenu Mark. Correct guy.
