My advice for you is to Japa to a sane climate, like abroad, since you are capable of it. Most people wants to leave Nigeria, but they don't have the means to do so. All these plans you've planned, is because you're alive, that's why you're able to make plans for your future. Nigeria is not a sane climate, not a safe place, no security, it's a zoo. You could be killed at any fucking time, you could be kidnapped and killed, anything could happen. Leave this shithole of a corn-tree if you value your life, that of your wife and unborn child and your future plans.

Easy nau boda wale

Michaelspresh:
Me wondering why on earth a sensible person that has money should stay in this Nigeria 😐

A lot of rich and sensible persons are in Nigeria. What's your point though?

I thought he's a man of God

Well, he said he was but nowadays I'm not sure

bjdon:
What a hypocrite. He was happy to be number 2 in a Muslim-Muslim ticket, but now wants to block another muslim from becoming number3. For me I don't care how emarges as SP as they are all in it for themselves, but what nobody should try and use religion or tribe to blackmail anyone. With the Muslim-Muslim ticket for Pres and VP, it's now open season. if SP and Speaker end up being muslim, so be it. That may even be the best outcome to knock sense into the thick heads of those southern christians that voted APC

I personally want everybody from presidency to national assembly to judiciary to be Muslims. It's all about competence like APC said so let's forget religion.

Muslims top to bottom. Perhaps the useful idiotic Christians that supported this madness from the start will learn a lesson or two after 4 years

He sounded very confident in the interview, wasn't jittery, I guess he is innocent.

At least you have learnt that it is possible to lie confidently without jittering

Kukutenla:
I still ask then. When are we going to have transgender animals since according to you we have gay animals. Or is it that the spectrum stops at gay for animals. What about queer animals?

People that are confused.

Mental condition that requires therapy is not being called a "right"

When will US and Europe recognize polygamy "right" or female circumcision "right" in their constitution??

bentennyIsBack:
I dare you to boldly come out and do your lgbt advocacy in the streets of naija!
I wan check something!
You are doing advocacy and no protest or public declaration dey play
All noise as usual!

Dem no dey tell blind man say rain dey fall

Nazgul:
Men to be honest it has improved, like seriously improved. We had light for 6 days at a stretch without blinking. Before they took it and brought it back almost immediately.

The only problem I'm faced with now is that my prepaid meter's units is horribly dropping each day with reckless abandon.

Power supply has seriously improved on Lagos mainland. I don't know for other parts of Nigeria.

It's rainy season bro

Arrewa:
I am a straight dude with a passionate love for bobs, Asss and V.G

Bit I see nothing wrong in two Adult deciding to be Gay or whatsoever!!

Black people should focus on effective justice system, modern and scientific enlightenment, and modify our political system and civil service...

It's always harmless Until they start indoctrinating kids and allowing 4 year olds to sign up for sex change operation without their parent consent, or mandating private companies to have gays and transgender quota.... It's a mob but you won't realize until you give them an inch then they take the whole mile from you.

This is Africa. Let the west face their deranged culture. US Government want to force LGBT "right" on Africans but is not ready to respect polygamy "right" or female circumcision "right"

No country on earth has the moral authority to force its perversed culture on the rest of the world

Jennyclay:
Please can you just shut up and let us hear word

You broke men are the most disgusting and irritating men living on earth. Why would he go on a date without holding enough money

I’m very sure the lady was on her own jejely when the broke fool asked her on a date.

How much is 12k that the broke fool refused to pay?? Eh?? How much??
If a guy take me out, only a bottle of red wine I will order alone is over 8k and we haven’t even talked of food and other things.

Big shame on all broke men!!! Shame!!

A wise woman will ask the man for his budget or come prepared to cover any additional cost just in case...

A date is not an opportunity to make the man spend his last kobo.

The whites that we like to copy have dating apps that will split the bill and such that each person will come prepared.

EnemyofGod2:
God and Satan doesn't exist,



There's no verifiable recognizable concretable approvable evidence of their existence..no man Born of woman has ever proof the existence of God.i challenge anybody here to proof to me.

My brothers and sisters don't let anybody deceive you.

Believe me,God or Satan or Jesus Christ doesn't exist.

there's no imaginary sky daddy up there,open your eyes my friend.

This argument is old bro. Believe what you want. It's needless looking for evidence when your mind is already made up

princekwi:
Lol, who cares about political relevance of a muthafucking country? Igbo man has never for once depended on the useless nepotic governemnt for survival, we work hard, innovate both technoligically and business wise to be where we are , political relevance my foot, you with your political relevance since 1960, where are you economically? remove igbos in that country just for a day and the useless zoo collapse instantly. Useless stinking country on recession that's still even in coma because of foreign remittance by igbos in diaspora, if not for the igbos, the country will be in mortuary now:

Now you have spoken like a true Igbo. Always condescending and insulting the rest of the nation and overestimating their self importance.

Keep it up bro! Y'all will be alright

One love from the zoo!🤣🤣

princekwi:
When they dictate the tide of who gets elected in Anambra and IMO just like igbos can influence who get elected In other places, especially Lagos, they will be elected. We are in democracy and not authocracy or selectocracy, if they want to call the shots, they should troop in their millions to igbo land, contribute to economic advancement of it just like igbos do other places, then during election, they can decide to queue behind anyone they please and I assure you that they will never be harassed or intimidated. There's a reason igbos are hated by the colonial masters, they know we are far advanced than other tribes, hence their determination to keep us perpetually down, but they can't, because igbos are God's children, got it? We are liberal by nature, hate injustice and fight it with all we have got, we are not like some highly sectional and cursed tribalistic Monkeys occupying Nigeria geographical space as just ( matters)

Igbos do not encourage other tribes to "troop" because of their tribalism and extreme possessiveness on land. If you are hospitable and there's business opportunity in your state other tribes will come.
Igbos accuse others of tribalism but will never allow a non indegene to be elected or appointed into any important position or control significant business interests in the east.

Y'all need to stop pointing fingers at other tribes and take your own advise. This bitterness and hate will take you no where. As you may have observed, people of all tribes gravitates toward regions that are more welcoming to non indigenes than regions that openly reject others and call them awful names which is exactly what you wrote up there... You hate hausas and yorubas and tag them backward yet you can't stay away from north and Southwest, you pick fights you cannot win and this has led to your political irrelevance.

You can keep on hating while the rest of the country keep making progress. Bye!

jmoore:
Still stuck in stone age. Nigerians are being elected in USA, UK, etc.

When will hausas and yorubas be elected in Imo or Anambra?

iSense247:
Blaming the victim as usual. I respect you more than this bro. Sad

For how long shall we continue to blame the victims of terrorism instead of the terrorists killing, stealing and destroying on daily bases. You may be their next victim, and that's why reasonable people should condemn the good but the evil.

He's not blaming the victims. I know many Christians who were the ones championing Muslim Muslim ticket and explaining how it's about competence and not religion. Muslims will never give such an explanation. They will demand a balanced ticket or cause trouble all over the country.

Most Christians think they are educated and enlightened...much too educated to their own detriment. Millions of Southern Christians who voted for Muslim Muslim without questioning the motive behind are being clever by half and they are the reason why elrufai is blabbing today.

Now they are pushing Muslims for senate President and speaker of the house. Those who think that religion does not matter will soon learn the hard way

If anything happens to Tinubu (God forbid) wth these fundamentalists in power do you know what that means for Christians

Wike no sabi button suite sef

Olukat:
Are they still campaigning?
When will this "16 years" narrative end?
I hope these brainless e'idiots don't do to Tinubu what they did to Gen. Buhari

They are doing it already.
One sent me a WhatsApp broadcast that Tinubu has reduced cost of flight tickets. I just dey laugh 🤣😅

Life was generally good under PDP and we didn't have this crazy inflation but I remember that Jonathan increased minimum wage and corpers allowance

Femmyfamous4u:
It is humane policy to assuage the sufferings of people based on increased price of petrol.

For how long?

FOLYKAZE:
The days ahead will be interesting.

But I sincerely don't understand what NLC look to achieve with their proposed strike.

These guys watched unhinged when Buhari and the lawmakers worked the 2023 budget and had subsidy thrown out after it's June. Why was NLC mute and can't challenge Buhari then?

NLC also understand that FG is borrowing heavily to pay for subsidy. And going forward, it will be impossible to pay salaries of civil servant or provide basic amenities to the people. It would have been reasonable if they tell the nation the very best alternatives of paying for subsidy without spending all our income. Do they want FG to sink into debt? What alternatives do they proffer?

It is impossible to tie the hands of FG especially when the President is determined.

But let us watch as it plays out

But you understand what NLC achieved with the 2012 strike for subsidy removal

nairalanda1:
Refinereis died because the inherent price controls that make subsidy possible prevented them from making a profit

NNPC became the sole importer because it was costing goverment too much money to subsidse private importers.

You can't "remove subsidy" and still fix prices

This is price hike just like the buhari days. Deregulate the downstream and issue importation licenses to independent marketers and fix the refineries. That's the only way you can have price competition. Anything short of that is just pure price hike and labour understands this very well.

This hike will have multiplier effects on everyone except the political class who are not willing to make any sacrifice from their bogus allowances

hssd8nland:
Hmmm this is the initial test for PBAT. If he doesn't handle this well it can affect his govenerment till he finishes his tenure . He needs to stay firm with his decisions and policies and act swift.

Stand firm on a careless pronouncement that has thrown the nation into chaos?

Why do all APC supporters like lies so much? This was how you urged kept encouraging Buhari to decimate Nigeria for 8 years. Y'all have started again

nairalanda1:
As If you were a businessman, would you allow government to set your prices so that they can 'help the poor'?

Will a sensible government restrict oil importation license to nnpc alone and allow 4 refineries to die?

ogunijebu18:
El rufai is one man. He might be radical but can’t represent all of Apc. There are many Christian governors in Apc. Muslim Muslim ticket normally wouldn’t work only cause Yoruba support Tinubu cause we know he is religious tolerant and civil. El rufai is too radical for national politics

Keep consoling yourself. By the time reality dawn on you it will be too late.

Ask yourself this question. If it was Christian Christian ticket will Muslims make these kind of excuses you are currently making?

If a Christian Christian ticket won and a pastor comes out to make this kind of statement will the miluslims be on Facebook defending and excusing it? Think about that!

I am not interested in any religion/tribal political domination.

I just want to leave in a nation where there is peace, justice and equity but the die has been cast. Christians who voted APC failed to see the big picture

treesun:
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Plateau state, Samuel Kwamkur on Sunday cautioned former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai not to set Nigeria on fire using his utterances

Kwankur who is a former National Director of the Christian Association of Nigeria stated this at a press conference in Jos on Sunday.




He was reacting to statements allegedly credited to the former Kaduna State Governor in which he told his audience before handing over to his successor that the Islamic dominance in Kaduna had been successfully replicated in Nigeria and that it shall continue.

El-Rufai, he alleged, equally told his audience that in the course of the electioneering campaigns, when “they”(Christians ) tried to ask questions on why the Muslim/Muslim Ticket, he deceived ‘them’ that it was not for religious dominance when in reality, the tickets both nationally and at the state level were for Islamic dominance.

He said that in the video containing the speech which has gone viral on social media, El-Rufai further said that the victory of Bola Tinubu had silenced the Christian Association of Nigeria, adding that he will sustain an Islamic-dominated government for 20 years and unending not only in Kaduna State but in Nigeria at large

But Kwankur while reacting to El-Rufai’s outburst expressed disappointment at the utterances of the former Governor noting that the classification of the citizens of his state as ‘them’ versus us’ meant that the former Kaduna Governor cannot be exonerated from the wanton killings, demolition of houses and places of worship of Christians in Kaduna.

Kwankur said he was surprised that El-Rufai who was contemplated as one of the qualified persons to be appointed as the Chief of Staff to Mr President or Secretary to the Government of the Federation had turned himself into a confirmed religious bigot with a hidden agenda to destroy the country using religion.


He advised El-Rufai not to use his utterances to mislead Nigerians into thinking that President Bola Tinubu’s electoral victory was purposely to islamise Nigeria and nothing else.

The former National Director of CAN said “Ordinarily, I have heard Islamic clerics preach that Tinubu’s Muslim/ Muslim ticket is in furtherance of an Islamisation agenda, and despite that, I am one of those who contributed in discouraging Christians and Nigerians from accepting such as true because I believed in the antecedents and character of His Excellency Ahmed Bola Tinubu but hearing from a political leader like El-Rufai, a close associate of Tinubu and Shettima, an active participant in the campaign who was contemplated as one of the qualified persons to be appointed as the Chief of Staff to Mr President or Secretary to the Government of the Federation confirmed that there is a hidden agenda to be mindful of.

“In the said address, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai spoke like one of the religious bigots that have been working underground to set the nation on fire. Amongst his ill-motivated statements which I can only paraphrase for now, El-Rufai confirmed that he is a leader of the Islamic terrorist group operating in the Sambisa forest albeit disguising himself as a governor in a complex nation like Nigeria”

“Firstly, El-Rufai in his speech, wondered why he should give ‘them’ a deputy governor when most of ‘them’ cannot vote for his party. That he calculated and discovered ‘we’ can win an election without ‘them’ hence why give ‘them’ a deputy? From El-Rufai’s classification of the citizens of his state as ‘them’ versus ‘us’ one needs no angel to tell you that he cannot be exonerated from the wanton killings, demolition of houses and places of worship of Christians in Kaduna. Secondly, Mallam El-Rufai went further to state that Islamic dominance of government in Nigeria will bring peace, Justice and fair play. He assured the gathering that he will sustain an Islamic-dominated government for 20 years and unending.


“This outburst reiterates his extreme fanaticism and displays his ignorance of what constitutes justice, equity and fair play. Discrimination, ethnic profiling and all genocidal attempts to consume a race or religion constitute injustice and are recipes for anarchy and crisis.

“Thirdly, he told his audience that in the course of the electioneering campaigns, when “they” tried to ask questions on why the Muslim/Muslim Ticket, he deceives ‘them’ that it is not for religious dominance but in reality the tickets both nationally and at the state level were for Islamic dominance.

“He boasted that the Islamic dominance in Kaduna has been successfully replicated in Nigeria and it shall continue. He said further that the victory of Asiwaju has silent the Christian Association of Nigeria.


“The question is: is it only Muslims that voted for Asiwaju? Who voted for Atiku and Peter Obi? I guess it was only Christians! How could a sitting governor, former minister of the Federal Republic and a potential key government appointee be this callous and insensitive? I recall in one of my visits to a friend in Kaduna, he expressed his views about Mallam El-Rufai”s involvement in the killings in Kaduna and I kept arguing that he should be given the benefit of the doubt, but watching El-Rufai address the Muslim Umma, I have no doubt in my mind that Mallam Nasir El-Rufai is one of those behind the unending religious crisis and insecurity in Nigeria.”

Continuing, the former CAN official added “For the record, Christianity does not practice deception as a principle or mode of operation. The Holy Bible admonishes Christians to say the truth at all times. Christians are also taught unconditional love regardless of religion, region and background. In the Christian faith, the Holy Book frowns against religious discrimination and dominance. The definition of Justice, equity and fairness is hinged on providing platforms for the involvement of all regardless of their population, religion and tribe.

“We also believe that God is the giver of life and power; he gives to whoever He wishes and takes it at the time He so wishes. Hence boasting of any sort is an open challenge to God’s sovereignty. Being a member of the Nigeria Interreligious Council (NIREC), I have closely interfaced with respected Islamic leaders of high repute and found out that there are Muslim leaders, unlike Mallam El-Rufai who are deeply concerned about the peace, development, and growth of Nigeria without pretense.

“Truly speaking El-Rufai is a setback to the peace process that NIREC has been battling with in the midst of religious upheavals. Mallam Nasir El-Rufai has exhibited blatant misuse of the trust that God gave him and confirmed that he is an extremist who has largely contributed to the pains of the very people he took an oath to protect in the guise of working for his religion.”

He urged the former governor to use the NIREC platform tom promote unity.

“One would expect El-Rufai to take advantage of such meetings to discuss the achievements of his government in developing the state and taking his people out of poverty and insecurity but ney! He wants to be celebrated as a religious hero and a Jihadist of high repute. How can our nation grow with this kind of leader in authority? Let it be known to all Nigerians that those of us Christians who supported His Excellency Bola Ahmed Tinubu did so out of sincere hope that both himself and his Vice will work to ensure the sustainable development of Nigeria through their policies, experience and exposure.

“It should be known that we did not vote Tinubu out of El-Rufai”s deception (Taqiya) as he claimed! It should be made known to El-Rufai that against his wild imagination of achieving an Islamisation agenda through the dominance and persecution of Christians, Christianity grows better in persecution and supposed dominance. We shall continue to preach inclusiveness, equity and fair play in the true sense of these words. We shall never practice deception to cling to power. No! It is against our faith! May I use this medium to invite Mallam El-Rufai to study the nature of our God in the Book of Esther especially Chapters 6 & 7 where Haman’s plot to end the lives of the Israelites ended up consuming his own life.


“For El-Rufai to think that the Asiwaju vote is a victory for Islam is very unfortunate and speaks volumes of his kind of bigotry. His outburst has destroyed the remaining respect he enjoyed from patriotic Nigerians. We call on Asiwaju to be mindful of friends, associates and politicians like El-Rufai who seek to work with him as they will do more harm to the system and the nation and nothing good can come out of such. May I also use this medium to call on our governors in Nigeria, particularly our Northern governors to truly work towards removing our battered citizens from poverty, insecurity and the like and ensure the provision of good healthcare and other benefits of good governance, rather than to dwell on preaching hate and religious and tribal differences. I call on our leaders to show the citizens the number of people they have empowered instead of the number of lives and property they have destroyed as is happening in Kaduna. I believe that God shall continue to expose the wolves in sheep’s clothing amongst Nigerians”

Where are those gullible so called Christians that joined to shout "it's about competence"? Una eye go clear and your blood will be upon your own head

solmusdesigns:
The reason why Igbos are not ahead in National Politics is because you don't see the bigger picture

You chase little gain forgetting begger rewards

Anyways am done explaining to Obi supporters how NLC strike would affect the PEPT tribunals

Nothing more to explain chief

Tinubu made a mistake with that careless pronouncement and pride will not allow him to address the nation that it was a mistake or to call stakeholders for consultation.

You can remove subsidy but there must be conrete provisions to lessen the impact. Abuja is not Lagos where no one will challenge anything he says.

I'm in Lagos and alapere to ajah round trip is now 4k. How can a civil servant earning 30k go to work and feed his family, pay school fees?

Those of you that are not affected by the subsidy removal should allow others to protest in peace

Tareq1105:
Thunder fire Ajaero if he doesn't shut down power. Tinubu is not Uzodima and Tinubu is not Jonathan. Let him try it if NLC under Ajaero would ever remain the same. Go and find out who Tinubu is. By the time Tinubu would deal with him and charge him for economic sabotage, I tell you he would rot in jail for 4 yrs. Obi his master that he's working for wouldn't recognize him after 4 yrs.

Where was this rage in 2012. So Jonathan should have charged Tinubu for economic Sabotage right?

You people reason like 4 year olds and it's pathetic
You don't get to pick and choose how labour react to a careless pronouncement made in haste without any follow up statement or clarification

Ajaero is working for ordinary Nigerians. If you are not affected by the subsidy removal or fuel hike then allow those who are affected to protest.

Please tell your dictator to jail all NLC officials and see how Nigerians will react.

Kylekent59:
Day 7

Hit the ground running, Keep running, don't stop running

Zxcvbnmghtr:
So what difference will it make apologizing? Some people just like making unnecessary noise. Almost 95% of Nigerians were against the removal of the subsidy in 2012 simply because we did not trust the government of the day.

But now you trust the government of the day yeah?

How has your "trust" reduced the negative effect and hardship that subsidy removal has unleashes on the nation?

Tinubu himself said that Jonathan must make provision to reduce the hardship and inflation before removing subsidy. Meanwhile he hastily announced the removal without taking his own advice.

It's not hard to see who is the hypocrite here and it's not ordinary Nigerians that have been suffering since Tinubu took oath of office.

Not a good sign for a new government!

2mch:
I am sure even Presidents of Cameroon, Niger, Chad and even Ghana will add money to sponsor this protest. Ajaero should ensure this protest is a huge success because he will be severely investigated and humiliated to the point where he will not recover.

Bring it on. Start the investigation then you will know that nobody has monopoly of political rascality.

It's pathetic how people support unconscionable government policies. This was the same way apc goons kept telling buhari that he's doing well and labelling anyone who criticize him as IPOB

You lot have started again. When did it become a crime to protest draconian government policy?

Confirmedzombie:
Im surprised that only igbos carry the NLC nationwide strike on their head like Gala.

Very bitter souls who are always against every good thing that will move this country forward.

A shame

It's a shame that you have to tribalize everything.

Transport fare has doubled and food prices have increased. If the increment does not affect you then allow those who are affected to make their demands from government.

If you claim that this sudden fuel price hike does not affect you then It's either you are not in Nigeria or your earn money in multimillions.

LegacyB:
Funny. “ trying to join another tribe?” That’s being egocentric, the facts availability proofs the contrary ……. Ask ASSU about the latest court judgement. On no work no pay.

NLC is not ASUU.
ASUU is just a tiny fraction of NLC

Tinubu is a very divisive man but he his divide and rule will not work this time.

Labour is not against subsidy removal but there must be concrete plans in place to reduce the effect
