His impeachment trial would kick start before the end of the year which would consume his time and energy
He has been impeached twice and it failed. Dems will not try it. The only people who can impeach trump are republicans and I don't see that happening

Go and check the statistics USA is using, most of the christian keelings they are referencing actually predates Tinubu administration.

That is the problem of you Obidients, you don't even understand the propaganda you push.

Northerners go just dey laugh. Wetin concern them with USA.
What do you mean predate Tinubu? Is human lives politics to you? All the killings in Benue, taraba, kogi, gombe and kidnapping of catholic school students happened under buhari right?

In 1991, minimum wage was was double to N250 a month. Then 50k was the price of a wrap of eba or a piece of meat. That could buy you 500 wraps of eba, which would be about N50,000 today. The last time it was increased was in 1981 when it was fixed at 125.

However, the Naira fell from around $1- N11 in early 1991 to around N20 at the black market by early April 1992. The following year, 1993, it fell again to N37.5.

The day he stepped aside, I was around CMS, by that building that has Tantalizers. I asked a Hausa exchange trader the rate and he told me N37.5.

Inflation during Babangida's time was crazy. They resorted to Ways and Means to finance the budget. All they knew how to do was loot.
Your submissions are 100% correct and I agree with you. What I'm saying is that everything you mentioned up there is worse today than babangida era. How do you explain the geometric increase in fuel price, exchange rate, food inflation, insecurity, brazen corruption, wanton borrowing and unbridled taxation to death? I would gladly choose the military era economy over what we have today

CrimeRe: Not All Fulanis Are Bandits, It Pains My Heart When You Call Us That– Fulani Man by Iamzik: 10:45pm On Dec 06, 2025
We4all:
Lol...I understand his pain but when majority are bad, we don't pay attention to the few who are good.

But he could be right because growing up, we interacted with some Fulanis who were quite peaceful. I think this generation of Fulanis are just bent on giving the tribe a bad reputation.
It's not just a different generation. These breed of fulanis killing upandan were imported by APC people from Mali, chad, Niger etc in 2015.

The indigenous Fulani were peaceful and completely integrated with their host community. They never led their cattle into farms. And when a stray cow mistakenly enters a farm they will look fit the farmer and apologise. They were peaceful. I grew up seeing the fulanis graze their cows armed only with knives, wooden staff, transistor radio, touch light and water bottle...thats the complete pack. Their women sold wara and milk and they understand Yoruba especially the ones that lives in Kwara state.

These murderous breeds were never Nigerians

I'm sceptical about any positive outcome from this guy simply because obedients supported him. Anything they support always fail and their expectations always come to nought. See as dem carry Trump dey come, Trump dey come for head and the same Trump come dey sick sotey na dose im dey dose off everywhere every time since last two weeks. Him no even remember him wife name talkless of remember Naija matter. Since Obedients dey rejoice i no say orange man no go near naija because every thing dem support must surely fail. Musa should find a means to offend dem if he won succeed or he will learn the hard way.
No be by chance say the two best performing Ministers in this administration Wike and Umahi are the two most hated people by obedients.
So despite the hope that things might change because we have someone who is not part of the bokoharam clique you still found a way to link this to Obi. You need to collect your brain back from APC.

You are the one who is pessimistic here. You don't believe the man will do well and you had to compare him to bring in Wike into this discussion. Smh

RealLordZeus:
What i don't understand about this fentanyl war is , if there is no buyer, will there be a seller..
What happens to educating their citizens on the danger of abuse.. I once read a documentary where the CIA was fingered to be part of the trade.
If Venezuela was shut down today because of their drug export to US, there are many countries that will replace them.

Also, Venezuela is an Oil producing nation, the largest deposit, why are they exporting drugs when they have a God given natural resources that can be converted to fund
The citizens have been educated but it's difficult to educate an addict. Do you know how much US government spend annually on rehabilitating drug addicts? Do you know how many US citizens are killed yearly due to illegal drugs? It's worse than mass shooting in case you don't know.

I support cutting off the source of the illegal drug supply. America is not like Nigeria government that will bribe bandits to release kidnapped students then announce that the students have been rescued....rescue without fighting or arresting any of the kidnapper fa 😁😁😁

Then when the kidnappers are broke they will kidnap another set....rince and repeat.

Trump should do whatever it takes to cut off the drug supply. Young Americans are killing themselves, becoming addicts, depressed and wasting their future away
PoliticsRe: We Have Seen The Children... Where Are The Kidnappers?– Hon. Kafilat by Iamzik: 7:57pm On Nov 28, 2025
nairalanda1:
I got a lot to say, but people are so emotional that they go accuse you of excusing government

But here is the reason...the bandits and kidnappers are embedded in villages, and other rural areas, and are in essence using the villagers and other areas as shields. That's also why they take kidnapping serious...human shields

Back in 2014, DSS and the army traced the location of a kidnapped expat in Sokoto city. A rescue effort was set up...but as soon as they got close, the bandits killed the expat, and then went out to face the law enforecement, to die at their hands.

We are dealing with irrational people. Send in special forces, hundreds of thousands of innocents die. True for every government from gej to today. If GEJ had sent in troops to rescue the chibok girls, by now we would be blaming him for the chibok massacare. Ditto buhari with dapchi and the recent maga incident. Same issues with biafrans, even oodua separatists, and the niger delta millitants.

The best way to deal with this is to get nigeria off oil...and into a diversified economy. THE road there will be hard, and the hardship may even drive more youth to join these groups. But it has to be done, or we would eventually reach the polit where in order to kill ten bandits we would wipe out a whole village of innocent people, or kidnap victims who happen to be there.

It's really effed up, and it is complicated by the fact that people have taken sides and are using the crisis to advance their man or woman...especially the tinubu supporters, but also the gej and obidents and atikulators.
The only language that terrorists understand is terror. You think that taking Nigeria off oil will stop terrorism in the north? I laugh in French.

You still don't see the big picture. These are not Nigeria Fulanis. Nigeria fulanis have been living peacefully with farmer for decades. I grew up living with them in my father's farm in the North. These murderous Fulani that are killing and kidnapping are from neighbouring countries and they were brought in by politicians to win elections in 2015. Kawu Baraje and many other northern politicians have said this in print media so what are we talking about?

Buhari spent over 3 trillion on insecurity in 8 years yet there nothing to show for it. The only language that terrorist understand is higher terror and superior firepower nothing else will do. So it's either the military finds a way to win this war on the battle field using superior technology or we contract military mercenaries like Jonathan did before 2015 elections.

Paying ransom to them, romancing them, negotiating with them or calling them bandit to downplay the threat will only embolden them the more. One of them on tictock was threatening to kidnap a whole president last week and dss, police, military are yet to say a word. If a 3 ⭐ general can be killed you think they will spare civilians?

Tinubu supported buharis rubbish government for 8 years just for his selfish ambition. Well now he is president let him show workings since his mouth was the sharpest to criticise the previous government

The Man has practically locked down the North East, South West and South South..

Few votes from the North Central and North West ... ....

And it is game over..

So Jagaban can actually start implementing policies without fear of the North
Wait until January when your tax will increase and your income will reduce then you will know that nothing is locked down... Tinubu policies are ill advised....all of them. Wrong policies, wrong timing with serious hardship on citizens. Then add terroristsm, insecurity and corruption to the mix

Have you wondered if the man in the video was planted or paid to say what he said?

Why would a paid protester easily, readily and shamelessly grant such an interview that would also stain him?

What if he was a double agent?

This is the age of media. Be cautious before jumping to conclusions
Yes there are professional and career protesters in the US. All you need is pay them hourly and give them t-shirt and placards. They will say anything you want them to say. Same way Nigeria government pays APC laptops boys to come online and defend bandits and the docile politicians and compromised military.

Propaganda does not produce good governance or security no matter how much you try.

Propaganda does not also change the fact that there is Christian genocide in the north and north central. The evidence are everywhere

From the northerners who think pampering extremism and banditry is okay to the southerner who thinks painting a narrative to prove a point is fine too.

I for sure know that bullets or bombs dont take sides and they dont have a selection mechanism to target any race, tribe or religion in particular.
Chief I lived in the north and it's painful when people like you sit pretty in the comfort of your home in the south and claim that targeting if Christians in the north is a mere narrative

Have you lived in the north before? Do you know how many villages in southern Kaduna, plateau and Benue are now being occupied by Fulani militia after chasing the Christian villagers to IDP camps?

This compulsive desire to be politically correct will destroy you southerners if you don't open your eyes to face reality. You think the south Is safe? Wait until those terrorist finish with North central.

Nigerian be ready to pay your tax and stop complaining.
All the ones you have been paying what have they done with it? You pay roadworthiness yet the road is not carworrthy. You pay for light and still have to fuel generator or buy expensive solar. What has the government done efficiently as a result of your tax. They steal it for themselves and their children then share indomies every 4years to get re-elected.

Do you know how much tax citizens pay everyday that ends up in private pockets?

Collecting more tax will not help if those stealing it continues at the current pace
