Nigerians are being sold as slaves in places like Libya to this day. None of you have ever called out on their behalf or against the Africa Arabs slave traders sitting right there in Africa, still selling your people. But you are quick to demand payment from the British, many thousands of miles away from your fates. 😒😒

Only thieves ask for reparations from people other than those who actually sold and collected money for their sale. There is a reason why the Europeans are not out there demanding that the Arabs or Chinese give them reparations. And you also don't see Asian groups requiring the other Asians to give them reparations for enslaving them. They are not stewpid. Africans requiring reparations and apologies should first ask it of their fellow Africans who likely kidnapped, molested, tortured, and degraded them before selling them to either Arab or European slave buyers. 😒😒

Tufiakwaaa!! Are you guys truly shameless or just incapable of understanding the danger posed by Tinubu?

Is that not a sausage that lady is holding in the video?
How many Nigerians get to eat sausage? It's almost like a delicacy here

MrSly:
Nigeria is now the haven of the world and American are now begging us for grants and aids. Americans queue at nigerian embassy spending tens of thousands of dollar to come and be cleaners in Nigeria. Boko Haram has been killing Americans. Imagine!!!!!!
Olodo uprising is indeed here.

VeeVeeMyLuv:
His staunch defenders here on this forum said the naira devaluation will ignite an industrialization/manufacturing fervor among Nigerians thereby spurring the economy and leading to Nigeria becoming net exporter of various goods and services.

shut up and get out, Trump won't compromise dealing with terrorism no matter how you cry

ajalawole:

This guy self
Always saying his mind

Classictunez:
You ended up saying rubbish. To score 74 goals for both club and country in a single year na beans. Kane deserved his win. He also won the Bundesliga and dfb pokal too. Was also the top scorer in the whole of Europe hence his European golden shoe. He was champions League top scorer last season too. Yamal won the world cup but he wasn't spectacular. Mbappe scored goals too but never won a single trophy last season. So how does Yamal or Mbappe deserve it? Kane was the worthy recipient. Period.

Training on antiquated systems at a time when the Russian/Ukraine, Iran/US wars have shown that drones are the future, is a monumentally stupid thing to be doing. There is nothing this aircraft will be doing that existing platforms in the Nigerian Airforce don't already do.
What the war on terrorism in Nigeria needs is cheap loitering systems, rapidly deployable, lethal on engagement and in vast numbers. FPV drones carrying explosives do that very well.

There is a reason why Russia can't advance in Ukraine and the US operates a thousand kilometres away from Iran. The Nigerian Airforce has refused to be dynamic and adaptive in its solutions when it proffers them.

Kobojunkie:
During the thousands of years when your ancestors and likely mine too had fellow Africans as slaves, before we then sold those or them who survived their brutality and deathlist off to the white man? 🤨🤨

Are you referring to the same Jim Crow period during which black Americans were known to have been the most successful they had ever been despite being under segregation? 🤔🤔

2. But your ancestor and mine were 'massas' who sold their fellow African off to other Africans, Islamists or later on the White man. And none of the slaves they sold were bought on layaway. 🤔🤔

3. I can imagine!🤔

Obasanjo is in no position to even be saying things like this

The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Friday faulted former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s assessment of President Bola Tinubu’s eco­nomic reforms, describing his po­sition as an oversimplification of Nigeria’s economic realities.

The party, through its spokes­man, Seye Oladejo, in an interview with Saturday Independent , ar­gued that the country’s economic challenges predated the Tinubu administration, insisting that suc­cessive governments contributed to the structural weaknesses cur­rently confronting the nation.

Oladejo was reacting to Obasanjo’s remarks at the Fi­nancial Times Africa Summit in London that Tinubu’s reforms had made Nigeria the poverty capital of the world and left Nigerians 300 per cent poorer.

The Lagos APC spokesman said it was misleading to attribute Nigeria’s long-standing economic problems solely to an administra­tion that had chosen to address deep-rooted structural distortions.

“With due respect to former President Olusegun Obasanjo, I consider that assertion an oversim­plification of Nigeria’s economic realities and an attempt to attribute long-standing structural challeng­es to an administration that has chosen to confront them,” he said.

According to Oladejo, Nigeria’s economic difficulties did not begin with Tinubu’s administration but had accumulated over several years under successive govern­ments.

He identified unsustainable fuel subsidies, distortions in the foreign exchange market, mount­ing fiscal pressures and excessive dependence on oil revenue as some of the factors that contributed to the country’s present economic situation.

The APC spokesman main­tained that Tinubu took difficult decisions to address these distor­tions rather than continue policies he described as economically un­sustainable.

He, however, acknowledged that the consequences of the reforms had imposed significant pressure on households, stressing that the hardship experienced by Nigerians should not be trivialised.

“However, there is a difference between acknowledging economic hardship and declaring economic reform a failure,” Oladejo said.

He argued that an assessment of the reforms should go beyond the immediate economic difficul­ties to examine whether the poli­cies were correcting structural weaknesses, stimulating invest­ment, strengthening government finances and laying the foundation for sustainable economic growth.

On Obasanjo’s description of Nigeria as the poverty capital of the world, Oladejo said such char­acterisations should not replace evidence-based assessments of the country’s economic performance.

“The phrase ‘poverty capital of the world’ is a political descrip­tion, not a substitute for rigorous economic analysis,” he said.

He called for greater scrutiny of credible poverty statistics, real household incomes, purchasing power, employment and access to basic necessities in determining the impact of government policies on Nigerians.

Oladejo further maintained that Tinubu’s administration should ultimately be judged by whether its policies translate into a more productive economy and im­proved living standards for citizens.

“The APC remains confident in the direction of reform, but we also recognise that the ultimate justifi­cation for any economic policy is its positive impact on the lives of the people,” he added.

Nigeria has faced significant cost-of-living pressures amid the removal of petrol subsidies and changes to the foreign exchange regime under Tinubu’s adminis­tration. These measures have been defended by the government as nec­essary steps towards addressing fiscal imbalances and improving economic efficiency, even as house­holds and businesses contend with higher costs.

The debate over the reforms has continued to generate contrasting views among political leaders, economists and other stakehold­ers, particularly over whether the long-term benefits will outweigh the immediate hardships experi­enced by Nigerians.

Can you imagine what's coming out of you? How sad.

Kobojunkie:
Well, individuals have a right to hate whomever they choose for whatever reason they can conjure up. So, such things do not bother or phase me, neither does it impact how i choose to source my self-esteem or "self-respect" or dignity. 🫤🫤

Racist in sheep clothing. Even Trump is a coded racist

Kobojunkie:
As you rightly noted, I am not a black face. And as a result my dignity and self respect is tied to more substantial measures.🤔

Kobojunkie:
The fact that you see yourself as a black face speaks volumes of the particular mentality that powers your psyche! And no one else is to blame for that. 🤔🤔

Kobojunkie:
I have learned to wait to hear the other side of the story in situations such as these. Way too many people playing the race card particularly when unnecessary. 🤨🤨
As I feared. 🤔🤔

BigkokoRep:
It appears you are the only one on earth who doesn't know Tinubu is alleged to be a drug bagman. All his appointees know including the senior media aide, the Mexican Nombador, Reno and the diaspora winch. Everyone knows except you. Wake up

Does this make sense to you? Or you just as expected?
