Stop shopping for excuses to justify APC mismanagement of Nigerian economy.

While APC is shitty like PDP and pdp/apc recycled parties like LP and NNPP, inflation is everywhere in the world. You better dey save money and buy properties when everything crashes.

Deogratias0030:
Tinubu is APC leader. If he is this good, this government would not have failed. I know gullible people will always say He is not the president.

While not supporting Tinubu, but stupidity like this should be called out. Is Tinubu the president? Does the bulk stop at his table? Even the VP doesn't have a say in decision making, he can only advise the president. At the end of the day, the president calls the shot.

brain54:
We’re exactly are you…

The equivalent of 1000 naira is about 10 cedis…

As for purchasing power naira is better.

If you eat 10 cedis food in Ghana you will not get satisfied. You have not even started. that’s for a meal. I can bet 1000 naira can get you at least two meals.

A bottle of beer is 9 cedis… equivalent of about 900 naira at the road side bar. Not some posh club o!

So that should give you a perspective of the purchasing power of both currencies.

No mind the guy. He doesn't know the meaning of purchasing power, he just threw the word in trying to sound intelligent.

udemzeus:
Nigeria should be a safe haven, we should not even compare to Ghana at all, but we get useless leaders wey no get sense at all.

But Ghana should be easier to manage, with lesser population and lesser ethnicities. So it should be a paradise.

alimiadedayo1:
bro don't say that people are experiencing worse here.. you dont know that it is painful to discover that our highest currency has no value at all.. can you compare the purchasing power of 1000 naira and 1000 cedis together

Another olodo that's trying to sound intelligent. Once you understand the meaning of purchasing power you can come back here.

Naira20:
Since the $460,000 Tinubu forfeiture was confirmed, I honestly feel it's unjust to arraign any Nigerian abroad for drug related offences.

They should just forfeit all and return to Nigeria and join Tinubu's "Renewed Hope" vanguard

Besides, since his name is Chinedu, he could easily endorse Tinubu. Instead of him running after an Ohaneze.

He forfeited the money because the US govt had no strong evidence again him, doesn't mean he wasn't involved in drug deals. But he was smart enough to cover his track. And in turn he chose not to contest the seizure of his money since he couldn't give good account of how he got it. Contesting it might open up more things. While this Cyprus guy was caught red handed, nothing to forfeit here.

CSTRR:
The society failed this girl.

Even ataga that should have been a positive elderly influence in her life was busy giving her diccckk.

Thunder fire you for being emotionally biased. Matured girl dey Bleep matured man, what has society get to do with it?

CSTRR:
A foster FATHER sleeping with his very young ward, and you think the ward is to blame first?

What's your definition of young ward? Is she an adult or not?

CSTRR:
This girl has been sexually exploited by people that should have provided guardiance for her.

The immoral society failed her.

Exploited you said? Is she a kid? She left home to go live with a man, you said exploited. Society did not fail her, she failed herself. Is it society that asked her to be sleeping with Ataga, is it society that asked her to kill him? Is it society that asked her to get greedy and steal from ataga? Is it society that asked her to be taking drugs? Pls stop capping nonsense. Reason it is hard for Nigeria to prosper because we attached sentiments to things.

Brendaniel:
Orisirisi, The police might be lying sha, they might just be using it to build a strong case to make sure she has no defense from her witnesses which the man(her foster father) happens to be one, on the hand it could also be true.

So let's not just conclude

I don't even have issue with you because you might not have thought critically before posting but I feel sorry for 46 people that applauded your message. Was the foster dad there with her at apartment where Ataga was killed that he would be key witness? If he was there he would be an accomplice. Kindly tell us how arresting the man prevents him from testifying?

They need to find the remaining 2 ASAP. There shd be a law that compels people like these to be fed alive to the lions.

Stronghold91:
marwa
go and contest for president
you will have my vote

As if he never contested before. He tried with presidency, he didn't win the primary. He went for governorship the subsequent election. He didn't win. Winning election for naija is not about performance ooo.

MonkeyMods:
Marwa codedly cashing out


But I will forgive him cos he was the man that cleared world famous Achakpo dump site in Ajegunlethat year and brought sanity to that area till today...

How is it cashing out? You think everyone is like your mentor.

I will disown them with immediate alacrity. Sebi dem go marry? And the people wey talk rubbish here, if you check you go know say your papa do worse.

MuslimIgbo:
There's nothing other than the effect Tinubu's creation, (Mind you, I'll not vote for Obi or Athiefkū) causing the drivers; Harassment, Exploitation and Intimidation.

Agberos have been around before Tinubu. Marwa fought them during his. These touts are willing tool's in the hand of politicians since first republic.

Ttalk:
Elko oni baje

Tinubu, Fashola, Ambode and Sanwoolu has given Lagosians, Yoruba, the entire SW people and the nation at large the requisite platform and developmental foundation strong enough to make the people have hope of better life through these monumental projects in Lagos state.

Dangote refinery
Dangote Fertiliser plant
Elko Atlantic city
Lekki Free Trade Zone
Lekki Deep Seaport
Badagry Seaport

All in Lagos SW Nigeria.

The people of SW and the entire nation will not ignore this gesture. We will pay back by voting Bola Ahmed Tinubu

Thunder fire you yansh, where did you put Marwa, Raji Rasaq and Jakande? As if Lagos started with Tinubu. In the new Era, Marwa was the one that set the foundation.

So people couldn't block the roads with their vehicles? They couldn't leave their vehicles on the street thereby blocking the roads? Average Nigerian like to shout than doing the necessary things. Ikeja is a busy area things like this shouldn't be happening. I guess everyone is trying to protect his/her car.

owobokiri:
Soludo has to be very careful with his tax policy.
He needs all the cash that he can get to prosecute his projects but a heightened load of taxes will risk alienating him from the masses. Obviously, Anambra needs to jack up her IGR. But phasing in some of these increases in a very skillful way should be the way to forward. Too much changes that burdens the population can elicit angry reactions. And he should stop the security agencies from killing Igbo youths in the name of fighting for the Unity of Nigeria! Unity gbakwaa ôkû dia.. Unless they're criminals, otherwise no Igbo youth should be killed to keep this monumental disaster of a country running..

Did you read the article abi na the English dey confuse you?

Anakazo22:
Look at how ungrateful you are...some of you will just come here and be talking trash... what you can't do you see someone doing it you said it's rubbish... you expect him to transfer money to their bank account abi... fool

Your comment shows you are not sensible. Did he give the money to one person or a unit of people? How are they gonna spend or share the money? Why not go with food stuff, relocate some people. Donate the money to a central body give those guys daily relief. What is it with the cash and taking picture? Shows he's using it for photo OPs.

Felabrity:
Osinbajo is an hypocritè if he decides to work for the same Shettima that called him an ice cream seller

Most Nigerians nowadays just throw words around even though they have no idea what it means.

Naija needs to do something about these revenue sharing formula. Some states can't be destroying beer but yet share in the tax revenue generated from the beer. I think each state should manage their revenues or something like that.

Karlovych:
It will be nearing completion until the elections are over, then they will stall the project for another 4 years. It is only foolish people that fall for such gimmicks.

It takes Lagos state more than 12 years to complete a fully functional railway terminal whereas Anambra initiated and completed an airport in 8 months which is already operational.

I guess the railway workers are more worried about urchins that will be defecating on the tracks or the absence of owomida in those areas once it's operational, SMH.

It is always good for people to be objective. This is one if the sins of Ambode, govt is supposed to be continous. Instead of him to complete Fashola's projects, he started his own. Though he did well in Oshodi, but going for personal glory is vain. Reason I like Sanwo-Olu, he's busy completing the projects of his 2 predecessors. He could have neglected them like Ambode and chose to start a new city in Dangote Ibeju and decide to turn Mowe to Abuja.

Amuluonyenaego:
OBI will surely give us more infrastructures than this come 2023 though sanwolu is really trying for Lagos state.

How many did he give you in Anambra when he was the governor? I think you guys are putting too much pressure on Obi.

seguno2:
ThiefNuibu’s blind bat followers can go and verify. Otherwise let them fact-check it.

While not being affiliated to any party, but you need to realize there's inflation everywhere. Getting flight ticket this Christmas is wahala. Naija ticket that we get for $1k to 1500 is now $2500 and more. Paris wey we dey get for like 500, cheapest is 857(basic economy without a check in back), 1004 (main economy with one check in bag). Before you get this thing for $500 with 2 bags checked in. I don't want to talk about groceries. Inflation is everywhere. Hence the reason govt is increasing interest rate to induce recession.

Emilokan1:
This man has never commissioned his own projects as a governor. It's been Ambode's project one way or the other. I've never come across a gentleman dullard like this man. Too many bad roads in Lagos. From ejigbo, to ikotun ,to ikorodu,to other parts of Lagos. Since campaigns have started, all road constructions have been put on hold. Lagos is presently in a state of comatose

You are one of those fools that supports the stupidity of Ambode and also the stupidity of new governor starting their own projects instead completing the existing ones.

You can hate Sanwo-Olu for whatever reason known to you, but he's doing the right thing. Ambode neglected Fashola's projects so he cld go for glory and make a name for himself. The people living in Miles 2 to Agbara were cut out of Lagos, the hardship they faced in that part of the Lagos was out of this world.

Now Sanwo is completing Ambode's projects and Fashola's projects that Ambode abandoned.

Villa12:
Tinubu should be studied in our tertiary institutions

Nothing to study. Just have a state on the lockdown using agbero, have access to the state purse. Handpick the state gov so you continue to have access to the purse. Use the money to sponsor people into Key positions (disguise as if you are helping them) so you can use them when the time calls. He's not different from a common criminal. People like him should not be celebrated.

Sixfiguresmart:
No, Sir! She isn't. She is a public servant and a role model to many. She is a leader to her subordinates. She lives off of tax-payers money and every tax payer has the right to vent on her just as she vents on her employees and wouldn't expect such comebacks. I have loved this woman since her time in NTA. I just don't want to see her in another light.

She should have taken the high road. This is a stain on her political career. Twitter affords you many options and she is not the only one in government. Gbos gbas is not for everyone. What is her gain? There will be more insults. Does she has the time to respond to all of them? I love her but cannot support this sort of childish behaviour. She is bigger than this. Do not encourage this.

You no papa or mama to be your role model. All over the world, she won't be the first or last public official to call someone stupid. And the Indonesia thing which the guy brought up is a fact. She didn't even mention a tribe. Those seeing it as a tribal thing are actually the tribal goats. And if they feel attacked because they think they are the majority in that business, then they should work on themselves instead of attacking the poor woman that didn't attack them.

Coldie:
Nury Martinez was an elected member of Los Angeles city council and the former head. What it took her to resign was a racist comment, where she said a white member of the council that had a black son was with the blacks. She didn’t just resign she had to apologise.

But in Nigeria they would tell u it’s not Nury Martinez fault it’s the fault of the white man for having a black son when he is white, that what is he expecting.

Now u see why Nigeria is just going in cycles. U guys support evil in your own countries then run to enjoy good in foreign countries

You are daft. How does this correlate to Abike's comment? Did Abike make any racist comment? Since you using America, how come Trump was never called out or resigned when he called people stupid?

VeeVeeMyLuv:
Madam don't forget it is a privilege for u to be there. Atleast find consolation in the fact that u are in top 100 out of a country of 200m+

The verbal insult u are receiving is nothing compared to the grievous hardship Nigerians are going through.

Privileged? She worked for it. You too get your privilege to serve

Nonexisting1:
Thank you very much. If she is not ready to be civil, she should quit public service. Simple
She has just told the whole world that Nigerians are drug pushers but tomorrow, she will want to attract foreigners to the same country. How many people read the man's tweets and how many reads hers, being a government official she is. Did she even ask herself that question? She is just the mumu the man called her.

Did she lie about the Nigerians languishing in prison due to drug related offenses? There is no law that says a public officer can't give it back. No be everybody be Buhari or Biden, go talk rubbish to OBJ or Trump, dem will give back to you hot. OBJ will even go further to include your papa.

DaniDani:
It is a glaring fact that Abike Dabiri is one of the Yoruba tribalists occupying a sensitive position, more so, she is a buhari ass licker, but there's nothing wrong with her reply. You can't insult someone that is not even your subject and expect accolades. Every action has corresponding reaction. Oby Ezekwesili should go and sit down.

How is she a tribalist here? Either you are stupid and don't know how to read. Who insulted who first? If you say she shouldn't have responded to the guy, it is ok. But you can't tell people how to react when you step thier toes. But saying she's a tribalist based on this makes you a tribal goat. It shoes you and those the liked your messages you look at yourself in the mirror.
