On the contrary, what you exhibit goes beyond Stockholm syndrome; it borders on outright bewitchment. I genuinely struggle to understand how someone can continue to praise a government that has made life significantly more difficult for ordinary citizens.

Let’s be clear: state governments do not control the national economy, monetary policy, exchange rates, or the country’s overall security architecture. Those are primarily the responsibilities of the federal government. That doesn’t mean state governments shouldn’t be held accountable, they absolutely should. However, the bulk of the responsibility rests on the desk of the President and the federal administration.

This Tinubulation-led government has mastered the art of shifting responsibility for virtually every problem from the federal government to state governments and even to citizens themselves. Whenever there is a failure, someone else is blamed.

So let me ask you a simple question: what is the one tangible, measurable benefit you are personally enjoying from this government today? Just one. Name it.

If you can point to a single clear improvement in your quality of life that is directly attributable to this government, I will apologize right here and now.

And please, don’t mention NELFUND. Taking loans to access education is not the economic breakthrough you seem to think it is. If anything, many people see it as transferring the burden of funding education onto students rather than making education more affordable and accessible.

Today, just so you know, a kg of LNG is now more than N2k.

If I am bewitched by the Federal Government then you are also bewitched by the state Governors.

Tell me anywhere in my comments where I praise whereas you are the one trying to exonerate the state Governors that are living extravagantly, many of them doing nothing with the FAAC they are collecting like a lot of sensible Individuals have indicated here.

For instance many of them collect billions every month as security votes without buying a single kit or anything to enhance security in their states, a lot of them keep half of the money meant for lgs every month .

You might not be close to some Governors but I am by the virtue of my work and the way they spend our taxes you weep for this country instead of blaming Tinubu using some stupid exchange rates.

Maybe you don’t understand what I’m saying, while trying to blame Tinubu( that is pumping money to states and lgs) for whatever reasons, Governors should also be questioned for many things going on in their states.

I come in peace.

I’m damn sure you haven’t watched this video. Kindly watch it. It’s just about 10mins video. If you still come back with this mentality then I don’t know what to say to you. Even your APC spokesperson could not say pimm. In case you don’t have enough data let me know, i can buy data for you, because i know that N30k stipend they pay you can not sustain you.

The APC, President Tinubu and those who work with him suffer what in economics we call the "illusion of money"... By the devaluation of the naira to the dollar, it gives you an illusion as if additional money is coming in, but that money has no purchasing power,' says SDP's… pic.twitter.com/pso5oZ52lg

So anyone that has contrary opinion to that rubbish you are defending is collecting 30k stipend. Mtcheew.

What you are doing isn’t far from they refer to as Stockholm syndrome, because of hatred for Tinubu you are defending people you suppose to be questioning or maybe you are part of the rot eating up Nigeria as a country.

And please I don’t need your data rich man.

This one that suppose to be questioning his/her governor about what he is doing with the FAAC and enormous grants given to them but his busy making case for people that are part of the problems of Nigerians because of the hatred for Tinubu.

May your hatred for him not make you collect food to eat from your enemy o.

To be released by next month. Rebrand them as repentant bandits. Then employ them in the military.

That was late Buhari’s time through their apologist Malami not anymore.

[/b][b] Back in the days when niggas carry ball matter for head, it was just Man Utd and Arsenal fans. There was nothing like Chelsea fans. U guys started having fans the moment Abhramovic bought ur club. Ranieri finished second in 2003/04 and, Mourinho came the next season. Una use Oil money buy almost 2 complete squad. Melchiot, Desailly, Emmanuel Petit and co were flushed out later. Mou bought Big big players. In 2006, Arsenal left Highbury for Emirates. They started paying for the loan or something. So that affected their finances to compete at the highest level. This was the time Chelsea overtook Arsenal. If not, it has always been Man Utd or Arsenal. I repeat, go verify from ur elder brothers. If no be Google sef, I don't think u can comfortably name ur first 11 around 1997 - 2003.

Story for the gods, can you please stop this your stupid stories. I swear isn’t you that will tell me that there are fishes in sardine.

At a point in time, every clubs has its own ups and downs and doesn’t mean there are no fans even when the club is nothing as far as winning trophies is concerned. Even your man utd was nothing to write home about when the likes of Aston villa, Nottingham Forest were ruling England.

And hope you’ve accepted that Chelsea has European trophies than man utd and the first one came in 1971.

yomi531:
Na u dey use Google. The European cup I meant is today known as the Champions League. Man Utd was the first English club to win it. I no dey talk of all those inter city cups oo. Chelsea and their billionaire brothers city, only came to limelight in the early 2000s. Una face no show guy . U guys just came as a third force to stop Man u and Arsenal dominance in England with ur oil money. Back then, it was just man u and Arsenal fans . Nothing like Chelsea fans . Ask ur elder brothers pls

Maybe you should ask your elder brothers too, The Ratcliffe that recently acquired a large percentage of your man utd from lackadaisical Glazers family that wanted to send man utd to relegation bought it with which money? Maybe concaine money abi??

And what do you mean by only man utd and arsenal are the ones around, maybe in the enclave you stay.

Like I said, as far as competitive European cups are concerned Chelsea has 9, man utd has 6.

yomi531:
U dey whine? Man u won their first European cup in 1968. We have 4 Ballon dor winners. See small Chelsea wey Abhramovic money help bring from dungeon dey follow man u yarn oo. When we been start to watch ball, Chelsea face no show.

Dey whine yourself?

Na u be first person to watch ball since the days of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Oga google is your friend, ask goggle when Chelsea win their first European cup too and how many European cups Chelsea and your man/woman utd do win and pls don’t forget to come share the answer with me.

ufotunang:
.. that was world cup club..psg was not serious in that competition..can Chelsea win psg like that in champions league final

PSG was not serious? Are you joking or something??

Did you see how frustrated they are after the match Maybe you need to rewatch the match.

yomi531:
I'm a Man Utd fan. I don't like people disrespecting clubs like Arsenal and Liverpool. Now u know ur papa abi(United for life).

All of you denying your clubs but if you are truly man utd but come dey take panadol for Arsenal headache I can’t help you. FYI as far as European league is concerned man utd no be Chelsea papa. Taaah.

Isobug:
Na Liverpool fan i be, you can't come close, no comparison

Na Liverpool fan you be but you come dey take Panadol on top another person Migraine. Yeye.

yomi531:
Arsenal won the European cup winners cup in 94. They even made it to the finals the next season before, losing to Zaragoza. Counting all trophies as 1, Arsenal has more trophies than Chelshit. Go and verify. Chelshit fans are newbies and what I call glory hunters. Most of them started following football as recently as 2003/04 season. Man Utd and Arsenal has more loyal followership. Arsenal get levels pass una. No reason am

Yomi stop Shebe, no talk am again o!
That European Cup Winners you are bragging Arsenal won in 1994, Chelsea has also won it in 1971and won it 1998. Then Chelsea went ahead and beat Arsenal in Europa cup final in 2019 that you Arsenals craved for badly after winning the Champions league in 2012 and another Europa league in 2013. Next time you are talking as far as European Cup is concerned respect your papa.

Ekaka14:
We no get beef with Arsenal bottling company o...its just that, "whatever a man sows that shall he wear also".
We sympathised with them and tolerated them for 22 years when they were Struggling to win EPL ...after they won, instead of enjoying their "Corner-FC" and "Goal-keeper bullying" inspired win in peace, they started taunting us again o...where we dey jeje dey lick our wounds this season...naim we sef go lay ambush for them yesterday...and Chakam!!...the trap catch rabbit wey go Final of UEFA to go park tons of trailers after scoring a goal in the 6th minutes....we sef come see say ahhhhh.....so these people don dey admire mourhino since ...yet they were mocking us for all those years we "parked" and won titles.
Anyway, streets around the world go quite for this whole week until worldcup fever come deliver them from the trolling wey dem ignite...
All the same, we love Arsenal, we love the peace this morning ...and ww love the vawulence

I swear oil dey your head.

Boomyvig:
It means some of us are still right to say the Federal government complicit in matters arising from banditry and kidnapping. A friend came to my house yesterday and he argued against this position stating that it’s the state governors that should be held accountable in all these. That the Nigerian federal government allocates monthly security votes to them. And when I checked I met it that way. And today, answers to my questions came alive. Because I can’t stop thinking, why is banditry and kidnapping appears insurmountable despite all the liquid capital allocated for national security. The truth is gradually coming out. I will share this post with my friend.

Just to buttress your point, do you know that most of these Governors collect as much as Billions every month as security votes? Some go as far as cutting 10% of their FAAC as security votes. But at the end of the day nothing to show for it and that one that said he wants to be president instead of him to face what he is elected to doing his state is busy complaining about another person and some individuals are there clapping for him. It’s a pity.

GreenCovering:
I know this is political but Jagaban has dragged on for too long on this particular subject matter while the lives of defenceless citizens keep getting waisted. The affected ones today were the ones who cried for the victims of yesterday. This is a large governance hole that the government of the day has yet to address. Or are there some vested interests within the hierarchy vehemently opposed to the establishment of state policing? Why are the people not empowered to be proactive about their safety or to be able to put up a minimal resistance in the face of a brazen attack on their community because this is essentially state policing. If the government has failed to address the proliferation of arms, then they should help the people with the necessary policy adjustments and bootstrapping to organise themselves against these senseless marauders.

But I hope you know it isn’t Tinubu’s unilateral decision to create state police, Infact the 1999 constitution as we have today needs to be amended and that is why Akpabio even said it yesterday after visiting PBAT that they will speedily do what’s needed to create state police and I know there should have been a discussion towards that for him to speak strongly about it and again don’t also forget that he directed the IG to outline all the various components to make it a success and if am not mistaken the IG has formed a committee towards that.
Makinde is just massaging his ego and that of his oga Atiku, if he likes let him continue saying rubbish, because he knows some stupid fellows will fall for it. For him mind now, him dey campaign against Tinubu. 😯

happney65:
You APC data boys and girls will not seize to amaze me. Lagos doesn't need Amotekun but was a signatory to the creation of it? Maybe you don't know Sanwo Olu was in Ibadan with other SW Govornors times without number during the creation of Amotekun. Yet Lagos doesn't need it. If they don't why did they join?

Why did they sign to it's creation? Why? Comparing Amotekun to Lagos neigbourd watch is funny. Those ones that are like traffic police? Lmao.

The truth of the matter is this, I don't know of any other state,But Oyo Amotekun is the most funded and they are doing well. We already have a sort of mini state police and if tinubu is sure of himself and wants to nip terrorism in the bud,he should grant state Police and stop playing politics with human lives.

An Oyo that shares border with Benin Republic needs more security than having just 74 police station statewide. We do not want terrorists in our region. If he is truly not an omo ale,he should do the right thing and save his region and stop crying obi everyone and then

I don’t care of the nonsense you’ve written up there o but if previous presidents have done what Tinubu has done about creating state police by now we won’t be talking about creating it but talking about the reality and probably how Governors are using them against oppositions.

This one is campaigning to be president or trying to get a good position from other opposition candidates.

He is now using PBAT to dey shine, if you don’t have anything to campaign against someone why can’t you shout up, anyway sha it’s left to him like wike said, when you feel you have big allocation, you begin to feel you are bigger than God.

What amazes me is how someone will say rubbish and some fellows here will be supporting it because it’s against Tinubu.

Which anonymous Governor from the east can that be??

Eriokanmi:
This was baba jakande's vision before Tinubu came and dabaru everything. With his quack innovation. How can someone who claimed to have schooled and lived in the US, even drove taxi for survival ended up this way? Lagos is not as busy as London and New York city. They prefer embezzling money with their quack traffick solution. I had to personally written to a commissioner in Lagos to introduce CCTV and traffic lights to the mainland before they finally acted and this is what happens when a non-indigene who is only interested in milking your state holds sway. All these will be addressed by uncle Doherty, may God protect him. Late Funsho Williams wanted to come up with the railway model in his administration after which his life was cut short. May his killers never find peace and may they continue to face disgrace in the eyes of the world, amen!

When we say its time to take our state back, someone was telling me that we yorubas are the same and can govern any state i just ignored him. He should go to Ondo or oyo state and contest for the post of ordinary ward councillor and see how far. We don take too much shiit and we're ending this asap. I've been to London and new York several times by the grace of God. You'd never know the cities were so populated with the functional rail system in place, including underground train channels.
Their BRT buses here are breaking down already with no solution in sight. I went to abule egba yesterday. On getting to Ile epo market, I was able to count up to 3 buses already stranded on the BRT toad. We have the money to make this happen but they keep stealing it, using it to stage protests and sponsor politics in other states. All these nonsense will soon stop.

For reasons best known to know you’ve ended up saying nothing.

BlocksNG:
sure. Bbc or CNN should grant him live interview, he will disagree your lineage. Dead man walking.

What is this one saying??

Gjrich:
PBAT stole his mandate

But he went to court and didn’t even say this one you are saying.

Britishpea:
Sorry Obi is from Indonesia

No mind that maga.

Urgent1Million:
Tinubu is not Obi's president.
He is Nigeria's president until 2027.

Tinubu is Nigeria’s president and president of all Nigerians including Obi.

Him not greeting the President doesn’t change the fact that PBAT is his president.

Congrats to the next Executive Governor of Oyo state. Makinde saw this coming rush and gave him Oba’s tittle thinking that will discourage him from seeking to be Governor.

Politics and power is sweet especially in Nigeria.

Two siblings fighting for the same position.

They even look alike, thought is Yusuf in the two pictures.

Kewekubosineh:
Arise tv is a worthless media organisation because it doesn't align with views of TVC owned by Tinubu.

Note that ARISE TV is a robust Media organization reshaping Nigerian media industry.

Kudos to them.

Please tell me the views of TVC.

Arise news is reshaping Nigerian media industry by spreading fake news like this particular one.

Oga shift Abeg.

This one only job now is to be posting fake news up and down social media platforms.

Instead of them to face their problems, they are busy looking for who to implode leaving their own internal problems.

Set of very unserious human beings that want to do things differently for the country.

Mtcheew.

The source of this fake news is Arise tv.

Not surprise, this the media unit of opposition, I have never seen tv station so worthless like this opposition tv,

tenpipsperday:
Wake up and smell the coffee

Am awake, I don’t smell coffee, I drink coffee.

This one just wanna intentionally waste 50million for Governorship form and some other millions for lobbying and logistics.

Nawaoo.
