So kidnappers wey dey inside bush go wait make police stop am for road block...na inside bush dem suppose go patrol no be to dey do roadblock dey disturb people

Try dey use brain, these days they kidnap people in cities, like Evans and co use to do, kidnap in mainland, drive the victims to those bushes around Ajah, if they were road blocks and check points, dem go either dey scared or get caught...most kidnappers try to avoid encounters with security operatives...the more operatives on the road, the more deterrence, it's common sense.

Na only thief and illegal people dey fear to see police on the road.

Babangidapikin:
brutality is not acceptable

In America they pop hundreds of bullets in gunmen and in gunfight...at a point all popos round the world will brutalize you. Read about KGB now FSB in Russia, read about Mossad...have you heard of how Bonnie and Clyde died.

That's the picture of the car they were in when they were ambushed, they didn't warn them nothing, straight ambush, open fire.

Notice the big bullets holes, those men were using machine guns.

What a life of stress, hiding in bushes, living in the wild and open, no rest, what's the enjoyment or benefit of the lifestyle to man and society?

There is no glory in pain, a soldier's story is in vain.

Live right kids.

It's not about quoting qualifications, those curriculum, courses and scripts and texts, they study and read in those colleges and institutions in UK, America and Europe, are words and texts that will indoctrinate them into the IMF/World bank monetary system and economic ideology, to serve the purpose of their nations not Nigeria or Africa.

We need to look at the hearts and conscience of people, all those things they read are not meant to develop our economy...there is a global agenda, all the money goes to HSBC, Goldman Sachs, everyone goes to them for capital, because they mobilize all the capital in the world, via states and banks reserves lodgement etc... Africa need to break the shackles if neo colonialism, which is in the economic form... economic dominion of the West over all...this is the agenda.

Until we remove partisan politics sentiments in selecting drivers of our economy and nation, we will keep being a mediocre nation, laughed at by many.

Someone said, we allow the worst of us lead us, and this is true, because most of our political class are a liability to Nigeria and our economy, they contribute nothing to development, just to go waste public funds, and be a partisan politician. Nigerian politicians are loyal to their political gang, not to Nigeria, with this primitive, myopic political ideology, we will remain a mediocre nation, laughed at.

Show it on camera, if palliatives can be hidden and sold, I no trust any of una. Show it on NTA government station.

Man must contain self, it's only the barbaric man that lacks discretion...not everything you think you say.

Road blocks and stop and search, are the most effective way to curb kidnapping.

For it is far better to be delayed in road block and stop and search, than to be kidnapped.

Nigerians need to know how to choose the better discomfort.

Southern governors should unite, form a united front, create laws to ban Fulani herdsmen in the South of Nigeria. We are in true federalism era. The North has hisbah, morality police, sharia law, all these from discouraging southerners from coming to the north.

This hisbah manpower is better utilized as intelligence to snuff out bandits and terrorists hiding inside the civilian populace.

Speculators of these binance and other apps, fix fake rates, they engage in sharp practices, deceiving their subscribers by advertising high rates for dollars, they won't buy at their advertised rate, but will sell.

Why is the DSS not going after this man?

What is the benefit if economy grows and benefits just a few private companies, politicians and their cronies, while the people watch like spectators and bear the brunt of high cost of goods and services, with no welfare, no subsidies, no water, no constant power, no security...the people just paying VAT taxes to government and making business owners rich.

JuanDeDios:
I'm not against social intervention. I've recommended zero-tariff food imports to tackle the current food situation. I also never supported FUEL SUBSIDY REMOVAL without certain things done first. But I've always campaigned against forex subsidies because the real sector mostly buys at black market rates anyway - forex subsidies mostly benefit hajj travelers, those paying school fees and people with high connections who engage in arbitrage. The irony is that you people (because you can't see beyond your noses) think the current naira situation is due to floating, when it is not. You've swallowed a lie. I hope the government doesn't' cave in and return the dual market for the billionnaires already waiting in the wings to continue cashing out.

We know hoarding of USD, lack of Nigerian exports, chronic importation etc, are part of the problems, floating is not the root cause, but floating without dealing with the root causes is a disaster. The floating will cripple the economy, because prices of goods will be out of reach of the greater number... because for now we are dependent on dollars for all our imports. The president should join BRICS or fashion similar trade organizations with trade partners or find new international trade partners, to pay for goods and services with local currency.

kingtinnie:
Did you really just say the us has good public health ?, good security??, water ?

The US has good public infrastructure, healthcare and water...that is why Nigerians go there for medical care.

Tinubu listen to sound reason, unfloat the naira.

The police should consider the fact that he surrendered himself, he could have decided to run away.

Good.
This is what all governors should be doing now.

JuanDeDios:
Because it's not sound at all.

In the interim, it's the best thing to do, we loose much more from economic and societal tensions, and possibly violence and destruction from protests, that is very possible, if the people take to the streets due to hunger and deprivation...the nation is loosing more, than the money used to support the naira to keep it stable. By keeping prices stable, people demand more,this create more mobilization of funds, more businesses open, more demand economy grows, government makes more VAT and sundry taxes...less demand, productivity and opening of businesses dwindles, and economy shrinks. Try to see beyond your nose and look at the big picture, Nigeria survives by the informal sector, this is where 85% of Nigerians survive from, and if there is rancour, anger and dissent by the larger number, if there is hunger and deprivation of the larger number, and the people are all loosing sense of patriotism, then it is very bleak.

Very good policies, economic policies should be for the good of the people.

In UK or America, prices of basic things stay the same for years, because the government is working behind the scenes to make it happen, they have good public health financed by government, they have quality public transportation, they have good security, water etc...all these things are either done through subsidies, government partnership, government policy, welfare packages, public social services and infrastructure etc...hence it is wrong for IMF to ignore all these subsidies enjoyed by Americans and Brits and come to Nigerian government, and ask FG to remove all subsidies for the people.

Government is there because of the people, a nation is not a company, a nation is there to use public wealth, policy, and revenue to cater for the people, protect the people, provide public services, welfare services etc. It's all about the people, not the private companies, not IMF or the FG, governors etc.

Nigerian government must reverse naira floating, it an ill timed policy...it makes no sense to float a currency that can't compete, not in demand, due to our low export to import ratio.

Economics is for the good of man, not just for the theoretics.

I wonder why the president is not listening to sound advice

Obidients are a disaster.

Obi didn't talk about the people beaten and almost lynched by Abures boys.

Is DSS now chief adviser

LP is a nonsense party, they will be worse than APC.

Not cool guys.

These crypto aids hoarding of dollars, the individuals doing it don't make so much profit, but collectively it hurts our currency.

AK481:
Once opon a time there was a yaba market ,that was doing so well and had the biggest line of clothing business ,the levy and tax paid made it one of the richest LG not just in lagos but Nigeria .

But one thing made the government of lagos sad , too sad. It was controlled by igbos ,the igbos who are typically traders .

They closed the market, built a gigantic mall and gave it to a yoruba man to lease or rent ,but first let the yorubas be the priority to rent to.

Today, the mall is being rented by snakes and lizard ,only the down floor have spar.

So where did the igbos go, well they still remained in a corner there,making their monies .

This ikeja computer village is another example .it will fail .

But when soludo breaks your shops in Anambra, you don't come write this epistle.

Good, that area is not befitting for a rowdy business as that.

Malroux:
I'm not holding brief for Abure but why should the police refer to him as a factional chairman of labour party, even when he has been declared the authentic chairman of the party by the court?

The man seem to be a thug...one allegations too many, the LP chieftain woman also accused him of using thugs to force her to resign.

EbolaTinubu:
FOOLS banning it is not the solution to our problems

If you are still supporting this mad men in power, just submit yourself to a psychiatric home because you are not mentally Ok. You need serious help aswear

Nobody is supporting anybody, he is stating the problems and giving solutions, what are you doing?
