Hedonisco:
The soldiers would leave the terrorists they're supposed to engage and start looking for market women, school children, taxi drivers and harmless passers by to bully with frog jump. That's the real problem. Misplacement of priorities and outright institutional cowardice.

MEEVEET:
Coup would happen in 2 months

Christistruth00:
Mobutu had massive US Support
But he still went down
The only good thing was that unlike Gaddafi
Mobutu and his people left the Country before the Kabila Rebel fighters got to Kinshasha

Christistruth00:
Kegame is in Danger of ending up life Gaddafi

He needs to arrange himself a good handover and exit from Power before everything Collapsed around him like it did in Kenya

babasolution:
Only a young,strong and able leader can turn the country around not established elite politicians .That is the one and only solution

Misterone:
In a way, you're right but it's a very big risk! You can never tell how a dictator will turn out. Look at Babangida, he built the third mainland bridge in record time. If it were today, he can't do that. That's what one man decision making does. Also look at Abacha! He gave our money to cronies without any cares in the world and many more. Man is naturally wicked to man. Therefore, it's better we prevent evil and greed by creating bottlenecks.

stanvesco:
Your last penultimate paragraph was nonsense oh



This Nigerian economy wouldn't turn around with capital intensive projects oh. Roads keh

It is a starting. But we have a huge problem. 44 ministers that is a drain, Bi-caramel Legislature that is a drain, Government should be small, do that funds can be released. All those Uncountable Agencies should either be merged or scrapped.



Fuel needs to fall
Electricity
Steel
Reduce cost of governance
Security


Eheeeen

Usmanovic95:
It's because of docile people like you that we find ourselves in this current state.The government throw shit at you and you swallow it hook line and sinker and even make excuses for them. Just few days ago they told you they inherited a dead economy and the following day,they claim they need to purchase a jet for the president but still your brain can't question the rationality in their statement.

Usmanovic95:
Even if you are trying hard to distort my statement, but the bottomline is that he is rich and can afford to buy the jet from his personal finance.If he can't do that let him and other public office holder take a pay cut till they save enough to purchase the jet.Its not only the citizen that need to sacrifice,the public office holders should make some sacrifice too.

Usmanovic95:
By example is how you lead,if he wants us to make sacrifice,then he need to make a bigger sacrifice,since he bragged he is richer than osun state,let him foot the bill 100%,that way citizen will have less thing to whinge about and moreover financially our finance is not in good state based on their words,so it's outrightly illogical to get one at this point in time.

How many countries have lost over 50 per cent of their GDP in under 10 years? Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world. What perks do Nigerians get from their government?

If Nigeria was well managed and poverty was reduced, the president could get whatever perk is necessary. This is not our situation. You cannot reward failure?

Good2go1:
It is wrong, being president is call to contribute to nation building with a primary objective to prioritize welfare and security of citizenry, the privileges comes second.

Seefinish:
then face your poor Osun state where Tinubu is richer than

Tianamen1:
Nigeria is a federal republic, not a monarchy. The president is not a ruler but a leader. a leader makes the lives of his/her followers better, this is why leaders are elected.

Please try to educate yourself.

Tianamen1:
KnowAll


So what are the perks of being a Nigerian citizen, since you believe an incompetent president who let his country's GDP fall to $250 billion in the space of a year deserves a new private jet.

slimfit1:
Remember he said we should sacrifice let him start sacrificing his 2 jets.

mrvitalis:
Still cheaper than getting a presidential jet now
