I'll not take northerners seriously until they hasten Nigeria's break up. Perpetrating or instigating terrorism all over the place for power or pecuniary gain is merely cutting the nose to spite the face.

If Abuja falls, then Nigeria has fallen. Forget Lagos and everything in it. The last election cycle has spoilt my taste buds. The useless MC Oluomo and BAT Lagos will NEVER again be the capital of Nigeria in any significant sense other than it currently is. Rather, Nigeria should split and everybody should go their separate ways.

This is not Japa/Nigerians-centric. Lazy journalism.

Just lifted some stuff, based largely on expats' opinions.

Na you wise pass. Continue deceiving yourself and gullible fools with your barefaced sophistry.

I personally miss PDP seriously

PDP was a nationalistic party. The disgusting tribalism elevated to Statecraft we see today was nonexistent during the PDP era (God bless Aremu Olusegun Obasanjo for consolidating that tradition) .

That is super important, because a lot of the socioeconomic problems we have been facing since 2015 to date are directly linked to tribalism.

Can someone fill me in on what's so special about the Ednut guy? A lot of people feel indebted to him, and I don't really understand why.

It is a societal/cultural problem bro, not a leadership or political problem.

Another needless, money guzzling rubbish.

Schizophrenia early signs. Get your meds real quick.

First of all you have to be wise, my lifestyle doesn't warrant me to be kidnapped or have kidney transplant. I try as much as possible to avoid that side. I'm very healthy, no drink no smoke no drugs. Its like coming from a poor home and doing illegal activities, once you get caught you will be locked up for a long time.

I can agree that you are richer than me if you are a big time politician, an entertainer (atleast to speed Darlington's level) or a prostitute or a ritualist. All those things you are saying are just to make yourself feel good and sound like a sharp guy.

NIGERIA IS IN A DEPRESSION, NOTHING IS MOVING, MOST BIG BUSINESSES ARE JUST STRUGGLING TO BREAK EVEN. Even tech bros... any tech company registered in Nigeria will find it extremely difficult to sell overseas.

Its either you are still under daddy and mommy or you are one of those occupations I mentioned earlier.

Ok bro. I empathise with you. Carry on.

The Yorubas would pay dearly. Unfortunately, there are a few who are supremely objective and publicly stood against Tinubu, but the vast majority did not hide their tribalism in this matter.

I have discarded virtually all my Yoruba "friends" who disgustingly supported Tinubu for no other apparent reason other than tribalism. It is just the beginning. We will never forget. The day of reckoning shall come.

Hope you know that the economy is in depression, there's no way to make more money in Nigeria except through politics and entertainment.

What happens if after living large you find yourself in an emergency and need money urgently to solve urgent need?

I'm sure you are a female from the way you think, men think about the future.

Lol. All I can see is scarcity mindset and 'looming disaster' mindset. Save all your pennies as much as you want, when certain problems come, you wouldn't even have enough money saved to do anything close to solving that problem. Do you have N80m saved up to handle dialysis and cancer procedures? Do you have N50m for kidney transplant? Do you even have ordinary N1m to pay aboki kidnappers ransom if they 'gbab' you or your dear family member travelling in one dead God is Good bus somewhere? God forbids all these things. I'm just painting a picture.

Hope you know that the economy is in depression, there's no way to make more money in Nigeria except through politics and entertainment.

Wrong. You're probably a salary earner or small business owner. I understand that things are tough for most regular folks. But some of us are seasoned entrepreneurs and schemers, with a knack for literally dredging money out of unimaginable places - legally. People need to broaden their horizons and come to the realization that knowing how to make money is a matter of life and death. If you don't know how to make money using your own knowledge, skills, and devices, then you're at the mercy of the elements. That is the koko, not saving pennies and deluding yourself that you're making progress. Nuff said.

Well, to each their own.

What I do know is that life must be lived to the fullest. There's no point 'wasting' one's youth, missing out on memorable and exciting experiences in the name of saving away like scruge.

I work in order to live. I do not live in order to work.

So rather than devise ways to save more, I prefer to devise ways to make more money... My income has to continuously exceed my expenses. I rather squander all my money and experience untold penury if that is what it takes to activate my creative brain cells to think up schemes to make money. But to save mindlessly and miss out on life's pleasures? Mba o. Not me.

Igbos wanted to boycott the last presidential but Peter Obi assured them to come out to vote because buhari swore by Koran last elections would be electronic, free, fair, credible and a break from previous elections but Mahmoud and Tinubu made sure it was the worst we have had in recent history…, the picture is now clear to everybody. If igbos are serious about self determination, the first step is boycotting all elections in Nigeria or if igbos want to stay as part of Nigeria the ethnic bloodshed that happened between Tutsi and Hutus in Rwandan will likely be the way foward. No tribal bloodshed no progress…sad reality of Nigeria

If you boycott the election, you only allow room for selfish politicians like hope to allocate votes to themselves. Then what next?

TheSuperX:
He should create more jobs instead, imagine building universities while graduates are still jobless for decades due to unemployment.

Mumu. So it is not human beings like you that would work in the university as lecturers, admin staff, cleaners, security men, maintenance, etc? It is not Nigerians that would be used to build the university?

KnowAll:
No u can’t throw it all open to every dick and harry, ward by ward, educated electorates. Throwing elections open to stack illetrates is not d best. Most Western democracy we copy have high literacy rate. So let enlighten people select our president.

But the idiots in INEC and the Judiciary are not "stark" illiterates". And you know the role they play.

Our problem is colossal. We need armageddon, followed by a re-birrth. Nothing short of such a brutal, drastic, renewing reset can salvage this cursed system/country in our lifetime. The only 'peaceful' alternative is time-dependent evolution. Unfortunately all of us on this forum and perhaps our children would NOT be alive to witness the futuristic eldorado we crave if we prefer to follow the 'evolution' route..

Owambe pilot must have been on colos.

What the hell are you yapping about?

Most of our roads are pitch dark at night (no illumination with functional Street lights as is the case abroad). Also, most of our roads are riddled with unforeseen pot holes and other obstructions. Not everyone has 20/20 vision like a cat, so what do you expect? When driving on a typical Nigerian road without bright Street lights at night, my headlights are ALWAYS on full beam. It's just inevitable.

Oloki:
Everybody is feeling the heat. I just pray it gets better in the coming months

It wouldn't. In fact, it will get worse.

Why?

Because Nigeria's economy is not ready for expensive fuel or expensive dollar. You removed subsidy, yet people's income is still the same. Purchasing power is therefore at an all time low.

The only way things can get better is if general income increases rapidly to match the inflation rate. And how will that happen? Even the salaries of federal government workers have not doubled, let alone tripled (but fuel price tripped). Not to talk about private sector workers and regular traders or artisans.

Purchasing power is dead. The truth is that Nigeria CANNOT recover from the deadly effects of Tinubu's subsidy removal anytime soon.

NLPoliceWoman:
And we still have Moderators on this forum?
Seun Mynd44 Dominique Justwise.
Rule 2

Add UN, AU, Arab League, ICJ, Hamas, Hezbollah, Confederation of Zombies, etc.

So now "currency speculators" are to blame for the aftermath of Tinubu's incompetence and stupidity? I thought we had seen the peak of it when Buhari and his Emefiele blamed AbokiFx.

Nigeria's 'middle classes' are the problem. Or should I say the enlightened/educated 'upper' and 'mid' lower class, since there's hardly any real middle class left in Tinubu's Nigeria.

The illiterate poor masses are too suppressed and clueless to know how to liberate themselves, so they're insignificant.

The real problem is the lazy, cowardly and eternally stupid 'upper' and 'mid' lower class Nigerians who have the numbers and the capacity to take their fate in their hands, but choose to remain stupid. All the okada/keke riders, jobless graduates, poorly remunerated causal workers/ factory workers, secondary school drop outs wasting away in Bet9ja shops nationwide, etc, etc.. These are in their millions, and they can mostly read, write, understand the basic issues, and can be effectively mobilized behind The Great Cause.

Until when this category of Nigerians are ready, then the suffering and smiling would continue.

Simps and their unending woes with women.

Does Tinubu look like someone who would allow a free and fair election that he would lose? Let's stop playing.

Only a popular uprising can uproot this idiot, and it has to happen before 2027. And it needs to be led by the north.

Killerofpigs:
ISRAEL will definitely get them and kill them all.

This is what BIAFRA should have. Tactical teams that take out specific targets by any means necessary.

Engage in killing BIAFRANs...in either words or actions, will be dealt with summarily without prejudice.

I know you guys are reading this...

GET IT DONE..and see how idiots that act AGAINST the project realign with total submission.

Nobody is bigger than whom the GODs of the land are backing. No need for plenty CAP

The name Biafra sounds ridiculous, and the Biafra movement is a lost cause as it stands. It is a huge joke that nonentities like Nnamdi Kanu and the other abakeleke idiot Simon Ekpa can be allowed to LEAD such an important cause, with their hordes of anywhere belle face vagabonds, petty criminals, and repugnant never do wells.

When the Igbos are ready to soar to the skies, they would organize themselves into a proper movement. After all, they have the resources, the capacity and the man power. The movement would have to be led by proper individuals, with a militant wing, an intellectual wing, a tactical wing, a diplomatic wing, etc. Not animals like Nnamdi Kanu and Simon Ekpa who emerged from nowhere to find relevance in a disorganized dance of lunatics.

When you're negotiating with yourself, it should work. After all, the question(er) and the answer(er) is the same thing.

Are you listening to the Tinubu brigade of idiots?

Naira is strengthening my foot.

I'm sure very soon the useless president and his greedy team would conceive the 'bright' idea of raiding people's dom accounts and forcing their hopeless Naira on you at the government's rate. But some of us will continue to outsmart them.

Nigerians don't know what awaits them. A mafia is in charge of government. It will be worse than Los Zetas taking over the Mexican government.

HellVictorinho6:
There are things u wont be told

Some of us are on a much higher hierarchy than those who "told" you what you think you know.
