blackgold2018:
agreement is agreement.

Which stupid agreement?

dchamp234:
Alot of you keep coming on social media to embarrass yourselves. What brought the name of Wike to this? Is Wike the speaker of the house of assembly? Make Una try get sense this new year.

The witch cried in the night and the child died in the morning. Only a fool will not know that it was the witch that killed the child.

Cherrybae:
Very good and victory for democracy.

Fubara has not sent names for commissioners. Fubara not presented budget.

Fubara spending money without Assembly approval.

No second chance for Fubara.

Wild jubilation all over Rivers state right now.

No room for a betrayal. Let's see Bow the online noise will save Fubara.

Wike na man you be

All of you shouting agreement and betrayal are not alright. You are worse than the politicians you complain about daily....you just don't have the opportunity yet.

One individual want the governor to pay him 35% of rivers IGR every month and you are here shouting agreement. Which stupid agreement?

Both you and your busybody wike will be disgraced

I hope his accusers have been arrested

AMINDA:
Gradually, Tinubu is beginning to fold in favour of Wike, as predicted. Today, they claim governors are the leaders of the party in their states and the next day, claim governors have no control. They are simply laying the groundwork to justify the impending sacrifice of Fubara.

If you follow recent events you will notice that Fibara's acceptance into APC is to checkmate Wike. Wike has lost relevance and that is why he is running from pillar to post. He has publicly expressed support for Tinubu so he cannot go back. Whatever structure he has cannot be used against APC (any attempt to do that will be met with federal+state force). Meanwhile the APC chairman is telling him indirectly that he does not get to determine who will be the APC flagbearer in rivers.

Now Wike is not an APC member neither is he a PDP member. PDP does not want him neither does APC. In fact if he joins APC today he must submit to Fubara who is the governor and his senior in the party.

So you see that Wike is in a very difficult position id you look at the reality on ground

NothingDoMe:
I voted yes. Let iran go ahead.

Anything Iran see make them manage am like that. 😅😅

Lol
Both the person who created the poll and the ones who seriously voted yes are suicidal

You can speak Yoruba all you want in Lagos but don't come to me in the east speaking Yoruba, because I wiil not even listen to you.kpele.

That's you personal choice. People speak Igbo in Kano. People speak Hausa in Lagos.

Grow up!

ibedun:
Seems you are blinded by tribalism and bitterness. You’re from the region nobody visits, we know.

You really believe all the lies and propaganda about drugs that America is pushing?

The whole world believes we have a very low IQ in this part of the world because of people like 🫵

Sometimes I just read people's response to my comment and laugh at the irony. You clearly think I'm from the southwest. Lol

Chief don't be deceived by my moniker. I'm as Yoruba as they come. Profiling people based on your perception of the region they come from is actually childish.

Grow up!

AdventureRoom:
I actually agree with you on many points here, and I appreciate the balanced way you presented it.
Successful older women are human beings first — not saints, not villains. Like everyone else, they come with strengths, flaws, past experiences, and firm beliefs shaped over time.
You’re also right that many successful women tend to date upwards or sideways. That’s not an insult to anyone; it’s simply human nature and social biology at work.
Where many men struggle is not understanding what they are walking into the good, the bad, and sometimes the uncomfortable realities. That lack of awareness leads to frustration, resentment, or unrealistic expectations.
My ebook doesn’t portray older successful women as perfect or easy. It focuses on clarity, emotional intelligence, and informed decision-making helping men approach such relationships with open eyes, realistic expectations, and self-respect.
At the end of the day, no one is perfect not you, not me, not them. The goal is not perfection, but compatibility, mutual respect, and maturity.
Thanks for contributing a thoughtful perspective. Conversations like this are important.

You have summed this up perfectly... I have nothing more to add. And this is very enlightening I must say. Please keep up the good work🤝

Boerhavia:
Oloribuku, Ilu awon terrorists. Bibi, the anti christ

Why are you so pained. Are you one or the terrorist sympathizers?

AdventureRoom:
You’ve typed a whole thesis just to say you’re uncomfortable with women who know what they want. That’s not logic that’s fear dressed up as philosophy. Successful women aren’t the problem. The real issue is men who feel threatened by standards they can’t meet. If you think every woman wants a richer man, maybe ask yourself why you’re not attracting the ones who don’t. it’s for men ready to level up and build meaningful relationships with confident, successful older women. Some of us are evolving. Others are just typing. Choose your lane. This isn’t about controlling or chasing it’s about attracting. And if that concept feels foreign, maybe it’s time to upgrade your mindset. Some of us are building relationships. Others are just building paragraphs. Choose wisely ✌️. Men who are truly confident don’t fear standards they rise to meet them.
Men who are ready for real love don’t complain about baggage they unpack theirs first.
This isn’t for keyboard philosophers. It’s for men who want to attract powerful, mature women and build something meaningful. Some of us are building relationships. Others are just building excuses. Choose your lane ✌️

Learn to consider other people's perspectives even if you don't agree with them. The person you quoted earlier wrote a very balanced opinion to the effect that successful older women almost always come with their own unique set of issues. They are not saints and neither are you. And yes 80% of rich and successfully ladies prefer to date upwards. It's pure biological instinct! Older women are set in their ways and are not very likely to compromise their hard baked views about life which have been shaped by past relationship experiences.

In all men need to know what they are walking into before getting involved with such women. It's a mixture of the good and the bad and the ugly. No human being is perfect, not me not you.

OkanlawonB:
There is no good functioning society that can do without a good social welfare system, and more so should not be discriminatory based on immigration status.

We should rather be aiming at having a good social welfare system in Nigeria.

Senseless APC supporters think that taking away every form of subsidy from citizens- fuel, electricity, education while increasing taxes and borrowing recklessly is the sign of good governance.

Every nation on earth have one form of subsidy or the other....it's a social safety net for the citizens to benefit. If I pay so much taxes and benefit nothing from the government then why should I keep paying?

BItt:
This tax issue is anti people laws. Nigeria earn and level below global poverty line. Yet you want to burnden then with more taxes.

You are playing with your 2nd term election

He is not counting on your vote. That is why he is bribing governors upandan to defect so that they can rig for him. If rigging by his area boys fails he has popo, eyeneck and jujuciary in his pocket to help him grab it, snatch it and run away with it

Lanre1st:
Just like Obi,

He said he will removed fuel subsidy and regulate foreign exchange if became President, Tinubu did exactly what he said by removing the fuel subsidy he still kick against it

Tinubu was senseless in how he removed the subsidy without any plan or clear strategy. Do you know that subsidy was still being payed throughout 2024?

Where is the supposed savings from subsidy removal and what was it used for because the government has gone on borrowing and taxation spree.

The careless declaration on day 1 caused Nigerians and the economy so much hardship that we may never recover from it. Where is the promise that fuel prices will fall once subsidy is removed? Or shall we talk about the audio refineries that are now "working" after embezzling billions on fake turnaround maintenance?

nairalanda1:
It is not a matter of crime, the guy is saying crime is when the USA says it is

Which is essentially saying that since the USA considered GEJ government bad they would be right to remove it.

Me I don't like what you GEJ and tinubu supporters do. When it favors you, you call for america to come and 'help'.

But Obama removed Jonathan by allowing bokoharam to wreck havoc and kidnap chibok girls. He sent us secretary of state to meet and have an international press conference with buhari in Abuja while snubbing the sitting president. Obama supported with money and logistics to remove Jonathan at the request of APC members who travelled to US in 2014.

APC and their supporters did not think of loyalty to nation or national sovereignty then. But all of a sudden they have become patriotic citizens overnight. I hate hypocrites.

If you supported Obama to interfere and change government in 2014 why are you suddenly against Trump now?

ElSudani:
If Trump is right then France can legitimately kidnap Traore, take him to Paris and organize a kangaroo court to jail him.
They can then confiscate the resources of Burkina Faso as compensation for whatever reason they can manufacture.
Crazy times.

Maduro is a drug lord. What crime will france accuse traore of committing against France?

When we say don't elect someone with questionable character and background to leadership una no gree. Una carry druggie plus boko put for position. Oya nau....

BondRiv:
Ramblings of a man who lacks wisdom.

Was Wike a member of the APC when he ensured its victory in Rivers elections? You have been itching to say this nonsense, now what?

A so-called national secretary who doesn't understand diplomacy. A total busybody without any political weight.

You want the best minister in this administration to resign, but you want to win elections? What will you use to campaign? Will they give you his job? As incompetent as you are? Nonsense.

Your eye is on that N600b in Rivers State account. Just stay out of Rivers State issues. The successes of APC in Rivers State is due to Wike's effort.

I like how God is confusing the camp of the wicked. When he rigged for APC in 2023 and was busy causing confusion in PDP you all clapped for him. Suddenly he is doing too much?? 🤣🤣

There is no peace for the wicked. Wike has been used and dumped. Fubara too should be careful. You cannot subvert the will of the people and have peace. Never!

nairalanda1:
Electricity subsidy was only removed for band A users in 2023. It was kept for the rest of the 80% of consumers who use power on bands b TO e at varying levels.





1. All those governments also collect more than 40% of your income in form of tax...that's how they can pay for subsides

2. All those governments tax far more of their gdp than nigeria. As for GDP...their gdp is high because they run diversified economies based on a wide varieity of industrial, and other products, as well as selling a variety of raw materials, and using them

3. Food stamps, and petrol stamps, and medicaid and unemployment allowance are for people that qualify for them in the USA...which isn't everyone. You want everyone in Nigeria to be subsidised. Doing that is part of why we have a severe debt, and a awful economy.

Chief I don't know about you but I've been paying huge taxes to government at every level. Yet what benefits do I qualify for?

You can't just pass a tax law to collect without tying the tax to social benefits. It is the social benefits that will encourage citizens to pay willingly

This idea that we are not paying enough taxes is a lie. If government has not made judicious use of the taxes we have been paying what magic do you think will happen overnight to suddenly make them responsible? I ask again where is the much touted savings from subsidy removal? And how was it spent? Who benefitted from it

This government through it's policies has increased price of fuel, tuition, electricity, immigration duties, vehicle insurance, bank charges, and now taxes. This is apart from the fact that the government has borrowed more money in 2 years than buhari borrowed in 8 years. All to make more money available to government that is not accountable to citizens.

You can't tax a nation with irresponsible leaders into prosperity

AqualinaXYZ:
Everything about Tinubu is forgery



This man can’t breathe if he no forge something within a month



Like name something that’s not questionable about this Irigbaji foolish man



Person wey graduate from secondary school before them establish school



Joined Chicago university with a female name



Licked microphone in Port Harcourt during campaign when he was asked to TASTE the microphone



Accountant wey no get colleagues or company group or office pics



Denied his biological parents and ran to a rich woman to adopt him bcuz of money



Abi make we talk how his daughter is 65 while Tinubu



Na so he go thief Donald Duke child hood pics during 2023 say na him child hood pic be that



Since Donald Duke no allow am thief pic again he don dey use Ai

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

nairalanda1:
Tinubu has made the civil service meritocratic, and removed all subsides on electricity?

Really?

How many times will you remove electricity subsidy? So after removing every subsidy and increasing taxes what is the benefit of government to citizens? Subsidy has been removed for almost 3 years now. In what way have you benefitted as a citizen?

Every government in the world have one form of subsidy or another. In UK it's healthcare and education. You don't pay fees until your child enters university. In US it's petrol, foodstamps, medicaid, unemployment allowance etc. These are the countries APC supporters mention when they defend high tax rate yet they will never mention the benefits that those countries get after paying high taxes

nairalanda1:
If they appointed Adesina as president, he would do more than remove subsides on petrol, even subsidies on electiricty would go AND there would be massive cuts in the civil service and an even wider ranging tax law , more wide ranging than tinubu's own, and also cashless policy would be ruthlessly ensured. And nothing like cheap universites again...and absolute meritrocracy would be introduced...and it won't just be hausas affected by the way.

Something you should realize about Adeshina and Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala is that they are proper economists, not politicans. And proper economists take hard decisions most people don't like. If GEJ had followed Adeshina, NOI and SLS to the letter in 2012, by now you would be calling them wicked and evil people.

Everything you mentioned has been done by Tinubu already so what is your point?

By the way the names you mentioned here can never become president in Nigeria because they will not bribe politicians with dollar at primaries and they will not rig elections or inflate contract or silence opposition.

They are way ahead of the rubbish we are practicing here in the name of politics

BodyCount:
Y'all will continue to be daft and defend impunity at all cost because it has not affected you.
So for your mind now, USA is clean and they're the police of the world?
They can invade any sovereign country that won't have enough strength to fight back, bomb them indiscriminately, and kidnap their leaders indiscriminately?
Can USA dare do this to China, North Korea or Russia?
DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY INNOCENT PEOPLE THAT USA HAVE KILLED THIS MORNING IN THIS BOMBING?
If this was done to a Muslim country, you people would have been using the narratives of Islamic terrorists, right?
Just as you defended what those terrorists did to Palestinians, but you can cry that Russia is doing genocide to Ukraine...
Don't worry, karma exists... It'll one day be your turn and come to your doorstep.

In the coming weeks, The intoxicated terrorist will stop talking about drugs, and will now focus on the main goal, which is LOOTING.
This was what Obama did in Libya.
USA also did the same thing in Iraq, stealing tons of gold.
When Gaddafi was killed by those terrorists, some ignorant Libyans were jubilating, today we all know the status of Libya...

But you were happy when Obama interfered in Nigeria to remove Jonathan

OredoPikin2:
Oga it is not 112 rather 122
Stop capping
And 14 people liked this ur comment
Nawa o

The 14 people na APC supporters nothing you wan tell me😂😂

benardtotti:
The correct number is 112 not 122 , the journalists themselves should have corrected him , this is my issue with our current crop of journalists they are as ignorant as the viewer themselves, it's terrible .

APC supporters can type rubbish with confidence

Uncle the correct number is 122. Go and check FRSC website.

A simple search would have saved you from embarrassing your entire lineage online.

You people should take it easy with defending everything government officials do. Have a mind of your own. Patriotism does not mean defending nonsense every time

Fearyourcreator:
Lolzzzz!
Wetin Rufai get ,lolzzzz. Maybe your own family dey very poor sha. If Person dey pray to be successful,i no see Tinubu there na Rufai i will come talk. God forbid. Rufai fit be your family standard though. Little mind .

Rufai is nothing yet you left the topic of discussion to insult him. The OP never mentioned Rufai but somehow your envious brain cannot resist the urge to insult Rufai!

You can only wish to be half as famous and successful. Get a life man!

benardtotti:
112 is the standard number it's not tied to frsc, humble yourself and learn stop being silly

It is you that should humble yourself mr know it all.

An FRSC official walks into a studio for interview but you expect a journalist who does not work for FRSC to know the correct FRSC emergency number more than the FRSC man.

Guy are you alright?

Fearyourcreator:
Arose people dey always make me laugh. All their lives na badt thing them dey like , especially the Rufai wey his head be like OWL head shape.

You and your generation may never be as successful as Rufai that you are insulting.

The work of a journalist is not to sing on your mandate. His work is to ask the hard questions on behalf of we the citizens and he is doing a great job.

Arose people ko.... Arise people ni. Smh

benardtotti:
The correct number is 112 not 122 , the journalists themselves should have corrected him , this is my issue with our current crop of journalists they are as ignorant as the viewer themselves, it's terrible .

Who should know the number between the journalists and the FRSC personnel?

I won't be surprised if you are APC supporter because na so dem dey reason

bro4u:
Northern Nigeria is the problem of Nigeria ,,, imagine a Nigeria without Northern Nigeria.

Northern Nigeria is not the only problem. Your president is the real problem.

You know sponsors of terrorism yet you refuse to name or prosecute them.

You have a military yet you will not give them order to wipe out the terrorists just because of 2027 elections.

Imagine the president listening to advice from terrorist sympathisers while turning deaf ears to citizens that are being killed daily. They will kidnap enmass then government will pay them and claim that they conducted rescue....rescue where not a single kidnapper was shot or arrested.

If not for Trump these killings will continue, the president will pretend he doesn't know what is happening while APC online miscreants will be paid 30k to come and defend the government here

donleo92:
Tinubu is actually desperate ooh.

But he should be warned that Big brother USA IS ACTUALLY WATCHING.

I wouldn't deny that he is trying but the past president did worst, and kept him in this situation.

I just want him to stop this one party system he is trying to do

When we raise issues here you people will call us all sorts of names. Tinubu will turn Nigeria to a one party state then he and his area boys will rule with impunity just like he did in Lagos.

I wonder how people who knew Tinubu just two years ago claim to know him more than we who knew him before 1999.

All of you supporting him will regret at last. E go touch everybody.

Exousiang01:
Unfortunately they know Nigerians don't think for themselves and they will buy whatever lies.

Wike wants to send people to attack you and it's during a television interview with cameras all around.
Then the attackers also took time to explain to you that Wike sent them.....

Well Obidients food don come ohhh.....

You are their regular customers, they have served you guys breakfast, lunch and dinner on one table.....

Only if Nigerians think rationally and logically

You type as if you don't know what Wike is capable of. APC supporters like woke because he helped APC to rig 2023 elections. What you don't know is that wike want to become godfather by force something that no former governor has been able to achieve in the entire south east and south South. He will be disgraced laslas and Tinubu will also dump him because he has become a liability
