It’s hard to really blame the masses. This regime knew their gameplan all these while. Entrench poverty through the loss of over 7.8m jobs. Weaponise poverty. Make those who are now jobless dependent on the government for N5,000 and N10,000 stipends called “N-power” and “Tradermoni”.

This is called weaponisation of poverty done by many autocratic socialist regimes. Now the people have lost the ability to think and make decisions for themselves because they have become dependent.

Is it a dependent person that can rise up? No. He thinks about his stomach first. When the stomach is gratified through N4,000 vote buying, he goes for it.

That’s what this regime has done and many would argue, intentionally done. Turned Nigerians into dependent almajiris.

you said it all...

while we can blame everyone from inec to APC to federal government, the real culprits are the people who engaged in vote buying

even if atiku loses he is decamping to UDP, and kwankwaso is eyeing ADC. beside ademola adeleke won all polls available online, only for jagaban and inec to change the reality

when are they going to unveil the national rigging committee

in Nigeria, every fever symptoms are caused by malaria. some girls no dey fear sha, you allow a sick man to mount you, just what if.... well never mind

5k per vote/stomach infrastructure won't let the masses reason deep and look at the bigger picture.

in my opinion Nigerians are not yet ready to liberate ourselves; the British invaded and conquered all Nigerian territory after 43years with the help of Hausa constabulary. they ruled and looted us for another 65years until the likes of awolowo, azikwe and sarduna started liberating us, then came the British trained cadet military that killed and snatched back Nigeria from the first true Nigerian leaders, they looted and plundered our resources for another 28years and re-strategised to give us a Democratic system still controlled by them to loot us for the past 19years. in all this, Nigerians only speak big big grammars (like restructuring, referendum,constituitional reforms, national confrence etc) for a while and go back to their docile state.

a proud owner of a Bentley and a rolls Royce can afford to wear new underwear/cloths daily.

perhaps the gods in osun made him confess on air, before regaining his composure

the girl is just so free. people hating on her also secretly wish their private/public part can get them a house in banana island

if a lagos NURTW boss/thug can make a video from the osun state government house threatening anybody and everybody just for a rerun, am afraid 2019 may be bloody

funny Old men, playing hide and seek. PDP waiting for the mother of all defection, after the primaries of the ruling party. one thing is certain, after APC primaries, PDP will become the majority in the senate, and the Senators who lost their ticket through APC, are going to almost choke APC government. similarly should the ticket be given to aisha's brother, okorocha's in-law or sanwolu then they have two governor and several deputies to contend with.

smart move, buhari's camp infiltrating the opposition camp, to influence them into presenting a weaker candidate with little financial/political muscle.... to avoid another hard to rig osun messy situation for APC. look at him looking like a black ram in suite

murder case, someone somewhere wants powerful army Generals flushed out.... a major General, lieutenant General or a full fledge General can't just go missing with his kind of security architecture, even his wife can't go missing.. a military oderly, a military driver all armed, with his access to service pistol. its easier to pick up a police DIG than for a Nigerian army General to go missing. it is becoming clearer the cuases of the herdsmen/farmers clashes, some locals in that axis are complicit in various crimes, like paid assassination, kidnap and perhaps cannibalism. the army should also raid and sanitize, kaduna/abuja/Niger axis. Sadly I might have to agree with Mr president and emir sanusi, many lone traveling Fulani herdsmen might have disappeared in that axis, prompting a retaliation.

BabaO2:
No, I don't like/want him either. Both him and wife too crude for my liking

mostly the wife, the PSP/vision scape lawma palaver and the land use charges. but with all this he tried small sha

BabaO2:
nothing unusual about that, that is his constituency.

direct primaries, everyone counts... and if he still enjoys the real grassroot support then perhaps maybe only the elite and the mandate group with some few party top guns hate him

GrammarNazi1:
...Ambode.

. Thank you, our own nairaland grammarian

ambode pulling some abuja strings....., tinubu the inconclusive and postponement master strategists. they have rigged ambode out already

Yes, but my answer is based on two weak premises
1; have seen a mallam come with its cub to display in the market while I was young, they do bring hyenas monkeys and alligators also (rumor has it they use charms to control the animals). no one knows if the weird mallams got it from across the border, so I can categorically state it a Nigerian specie

2: a simple visit to the herbs market (iya alagbo) or where fetish items are sold in any markets and you can get its dried skin its tooth, its bones and skull. however I don't know for certain if the animal were killed in Nigeria or imported.

It’s not about balance diet . Abeg . You don’t have to eat it as breakfast,dinner ,and lunch .
People eat just beans all the time .
Just say financial conditions.

people eat half/full chicken with cabage and onions dressing as barbecue, and suya with cold beer(not as a meal but side dish) financial conditions aside, when it comes to a "meal" a standard meal your instincts naturally wants it balanced, eg bread and beans etc no matter how rich you are except perhaps a full carnivorous human you must crave carbohydrates.

"balance diet" . your food should be in three portion; carb, protein and vegetables, due to financial conditions in some homes, its not economical to have the three in equal portion, so people opt for large carb, small vegetables and little protein however in a standard restaurant, a meal of chicken is mostly served with some salad and some fries

sad one, Two Chinese made F-7Ni Chengdu at a unit cost of $11m each going down in just one day and an officer died because safety parachute didn't deploy, and to complicate issue, the accident happened not in an active war zone but in a preparation for some worthless celebration

braine:
You're addressing the symptoms of the problem and not the main issue at hand bro.

how?

OK sir let me cheat with your wife and mummy G.O, let me sample your wife in an unsinful holy manner

women are more honourable in this government. I can't imagine a trained lawyer, first female attorney general of taraba, federal high court registrar to be ridiculed by agbero Oshiomole in the name of politics. at least kemi adeosun left their government with her head high, unlike shittu. if it were to be some APC men, certificate saga they would hire 100 senior advocate to head to court. this woman simply got disqualified from governorship race and decided she can't work for a party that don't deem her fit to be a governorship aspirant even after trying to quit before (on the bases that phoney Mr Integrity openly said he wanted just a single term) and been persuaded by the fraudster in chief, and also notifying the fraudster in chief of her ambition in an honest manner

nairaland is a social site, and not a formal site. taking away the casualness and making it very upright would just be too boring. as ridiculous at it may sound people like nwamikpe masterchen and other free commenters make this place lively. however I support some of your observations.

shitty shittu, after all the ridiculous sycophantic worshiping of buhari, from APP, ANPP, CPC and now APC. ACN power bloc engineered by tinubu and executed by ajimobi, kicked you out. it is certain Buhari doesn't want to interfere with tinubus bulldozer, crushing oyegun, saraki, osun voters.
Ambode better start getting a serious backup plan

if only the Nigerians in Diaspora can explain the sufferings of their families back home to this man. after coming back home and locking himself up in asorock with his team of sycophant. he sees or ears nothing again

Bakassi had never been on the Nigeria map
