this simply means they were holding onto his passport with the usual stories and now that they have been called out they have miraculously produced it.

i was wondering why i have not seen this moniker before

good to see that tunji ojo has his own personal propagandist. hopefully this is not running on govt funds

Fisayo even said he paid for it to be delivered.

After he released the post, automatically, someone from NIS called and delivered it to him

Such coincidence

Finally

Silly silly errors here and there

Nigerian Federal Government hired a lobbying firm, but Trump is to blame. I never know say Hundeyin get brothers for this thread. TDS on steroids.

I don't blame Trump, but it's starting to look like a racket.

How come the US wants to listen to a lobbyist?

I mean, these are people who have dragged this country on air for weeks. Suddenly, there's an arrangement to pay a lobbyist who is also known to be backing the very same people dragging Nigeria?

Whether na dem bully us to go price lobbyist, or na we go phoooolishly price am, someone is going to chop free $9m.

GloriousGbola:
You sure say Dayo no dey the team

Favor starting early in 2026

We all know what we are doing

GloriousGbola:
IMHO he understands trumps game. Likely the lobbying firm is attached to Trump family one way or another. That is the trump way.

Na Republican lobbyists

It was all over the news yesterday

GloriousGbola:
yes we have local producers. but the price of tissue has risen astronomically.

tisue i used to buy at n35 for one is now over 300

kitchen towels used to be n600 for imported. that one is now like 6k
the local kitche towel i switched to went from 200 to 250 and is now 1500 to 1800

and this is fking tissue paper which is supposed to be from pulp

Hmmmmm

It's possible that these local producers just import the raw materials and repackage here...

Mheen... Producing in Nigeria isn't easy. The challenges are enormous.

Many people just prefer to take the easier route which is importation.

OasisX:


.......I dey fine bro. Na one new project dey drain my time ó jare.

Thank God

GloriousGbola:
And Nigeria's paper industry for all intents and purposes has collapsed. You can see it in the persistently rising prices of exercise books and... toilet paper. All packaged Printing paper is imported. So more cost.

Ibime's consulting services for diff govt officials has given him a clear inside track to what is going on. Better leave your c-suite, strap on a machete and enter rivers politics and make some real money.

Network is down is standard for all Nigerian agencies . Website is always broken and you best settle somone with direct access to the the database or you will spend the next 6 months wasting time.

Not all. We now have local producers, especially for Tissues.

In January 2024 when I wrote that “Interior Minister Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo will NEVER be able to revolutionise Nigeria’s messily-corrupt passport application system”, some accused me of prophesying doom.

But it is now six months since I paid and applied for the renewal of my international passport. Maybe I will get it tomorrow.

On Thursday July 31, 2025, I paid a sum of N109,700 via the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) payment portal, then proceeded to one of their Lagos offices, to complete further documentation and capture. Meanwhile, the officers first mocked us for kick-starting the registration online.

I couldn’t complete capturing on that day due to a “network problem” that lasted several hours; I was forced to return to their office the following day for that. As I write this, “passport pending production” is the long-running feedback from NIS.

The irony is that Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo continues to be lauded by the unsuspecting public as one of the best — even the best — ministers in Tinubu’s cabinet. It is already almost five months since Tunji-Ojo announced, in the latest of his many mouthwatering passport efficacy promises, that Nigerians would be able to receive their int’l passports one week after application.

My opinion of him remains unchanged; he is simply the typical Nigerian politician who has a mastery of gallery play and public sentiment manipulation via the media for personal branding.

Woe unto you if you rely on media reports to gauge the performance of public officers or, more importantly, the efficiency of public institutions!

Supernumerary simply means "outside the numbers" ie not on duty

For example in a Factory setting, if it takes 10 people to make 1000 products and you had 15 people that day, they will ask why you are not being efficient. If the extra 5 people were not producing output but we're there for Health and Safety training, then those 5 people are Supernumerary - ie your efficiency stats should be normalised for the 5 supernumerary workers that day

Alright
This is clear.

Thanks

GloriousGbola:
No no no no

Izzou asked for supermemary police

The meme police

Or maybe he meant to ask for supermammary police. 🤔

BlueRayDick:
supernumerary Policemen otherwise known as SPY police are just private individuals trained by the supernumerary police unit for specific security roles and protection of high ranking officials and or organizations. Their job is to Complement the services of regular police officers

Their uniform is slightly different from the regular police officers.

It is the supernumerary police unit that trains SPY police and in charge of posting them to ministries, departments,multinationals, banks and other private organizations

Ohh
Okay.

I understand now.

Blueraydick
