As long as his people is fine with his leadership, it's ok
Nigeria is a good case study here. We’ve practiced democracy for years, but many citizens still struggle with poor governance, insecurity, and economic hardship. So it’s understandable why some people question whether democracy is truly working for them.

That said, the problem may not be democracy itself, but how it is practiced. Weak institutions, corruption, and lack of accountability often undermine its benefits.

If the people of Burkina Faso genuinely support Ibrahim Traoré’s approach, then that’s their reality. But history across Africa has shown that removing democratic structures entirely can create even bigger risks, especially around power abuse and lack of accountability.

Obi, I was an ardent supporter of yours but right now, all I can say is you clearly have something wrong with you!

Hello guys, I humbly need you all view on this. All my life I have always wanted to be a lecturer, so early this year (January, 2025), I finally got awarded PhD in Applied Mathematics. Though I had my first degree in Mechanical Engineering, masters in Applied Mathematics with specialization in fluid dynamics and PhD in Applied Mathematics with specialization in fluid dynamics as well. During my study, I run a tutorial centre and making cool money from teaching mechanical engineering and mathematics students. So after obtaining my PhD I started sending out my CV to people I know in institutions, though most are of the opinion that I shouldn't have switched from mechanical engineering to mathematics that it will give me problem.

Around January 2025, immediately after my PhD oral examination, my supervisor linked me up with the rector of a polytechnic to go submit my CV to him, which I did, and according to the rector, he told me that it is not matter of CV for now, because most people that he employed as assistant lecturers, they really don't have much to pay them and the governor of the state has promised that he will do recruitment for the polytechnic around March because of accreditation processes, so during that recruitment, I can be employed. Fast forward to March, the accreditation went on and I wasn't informed if the recruitment was later done (you know all this underground stuffs), so I later got my mind off the institution and look at for another university in other states which I was promised also that once there is directives to start recruitment, I will be employed.

On the 3rd of july, 2025, I got a call from someone from the polytechnic, telling me to come to the personnel department as soon as possible with my credentials, when I got there, he collected photocopies of my credentials and on sighting the mechanical engineering as first degree, he said which department do I want and I said mathematics and he said why not mechanical engineering where I had my foundation, so I said I preferred mathematics because since I switched to mathematics, I have published 11 academic journal with 7 of them Scopus rated in Q1, and I have also attended 7 seminars with certificate to back them up, and I have also been a member of the Nigerian mathematical society (NMS), so he said they will get back to me.

Since then I haven't heard anything. After a month, I made a call to the person that I submitted my credentials to at the personnel department, that I haven't heard from them and he said "sebi we are the one that called you ourself, the process is ongoing and once we are ready, we will definitely call you back". But I haven't heard from them still. It is almost two months now since I submitted the credentials and I am already losing faith.

I am just confused, could my changing from engineering to science be hindering me from getting a lecturing position? If it is, does it make sense to go back and obtain another master and PhD in mechanical engineering and just forget about the mathematics? Or just forget about lecturing and focus on my tutorials, meanwhile I make more than 500k monthly from the tutorial because it is in school area, but I don't want to be a tutor forever, not even with a PhD.

The Peter Obi tsunami

Lol

Real politicians who played in the field keep recognizing the force that Obi pulled in 2023 and is still pulling.

Fayose: “Obi is an institution now”.

Jandor: “Obi tsunami swept PDP away in Lagos.”

But riffraffs will stay under their brown roofs in Ogbomoso and be foaming in the mouth.

Don’t worry, 2027, una go see the one wey pass Beatrice.

You also noticed how those unfortunate ones are celebrating up there. Those guys are irredeemable idiots.

Don't curse anyone They have a work to do and earn a living. And maybe they are truely convinced about the government. It's their right to be. Most people would charge their mind and promote the government if they benefit from it. Doyin Okupe is a classic example and many others. You can't criticise where you benefit from.

The onus is on dose who don't to stay the course and defend their commitment to good governance for all. And not to see good governance from the lenses of others, tribe, religion, greed etc but on their well being and that of their neighbours

MrBrownJay1:
and so?! i dont get where the problem is.
if someone offers you a job, if you dont want it, you say no and jejely walk the fukc out... but dont pretend that because children pay 200k for school fees, you can dictate how much you deserve as a teacher in that school. thats what the school is offering, take it or leave it! so you mean that if they were schooling for free, then you would also work for free?!

stop looking at other people's finances... in order to try to lift yourself up, as you dont know what they spend that money on:
- are you paying the rent for the building?
- are you paying the electricity/equipment used in that school?
- are you paying for the free food that these kids possibly get?
- are you paying for all the extracurricular outings and activities that these children learn?
- are you paying the salary of all the other staff and owners of that school?

Let’s analyze here

Price of the fruit blender in Texas - N140,000

If I buy at this price and ship it via air to door delivery, delivery cost maybe up to N100,000

I need to pay customs duty fee up to N100,000

I need to pay staff plus maintenance cost and tax, let’s
say N90,000 to N100,000 sha from the proceed.

If I make profit of N200,000

The total amount should be N650,000

Now the supermarket is selling for N950,000.

Well the government officials are not far from the truth, people are extremely greedy in this country. Though, the same government making mouth, did they realise the cost of running business had hit the roof? Fuel is almost N1,000 which is affecting almost everything in the country.

Think about cost of capital at current interest rate of 35%
Cost of diesel
Cost of insurance
Have yiu considered rent
Hiw about impact of fx fluntuation that yiu need to anticipate and sell a bit higher than current fx, should.fx number move north when yiu are ready to make next import.

The loan, introduced by President Bola Tinubu, seeks to provide accessible financial aid to students who struggle to afford the rising costs of tuition and related expenses.

According to Ayitogo, “NELFUND sent a verification list to every eligible institution. Only those that responded are receiving funds. We have not yet received any responses from institutions in the South-East.”. He was quoted as saying “There is no consideration of geopolitical zones in disbursement.”

O pari. Senators and HOR from SE who toiled hard to get this law passed will be shocked beyond words!

It is now clear that nobody excluded the SE and Igbo. As a matter of fact, Patriotic Nigerians of Igbo extraction and other Nigerians studying in institutions located in the South-East are just victims of bad luck! . Their fellow Igbo kith and kin studying in other geopolitical zones made the list and had since been credited with the funds. Patriotic Nigerians of Igbo extraction studying outside Igboland, like others from other regions, are successful beneficiaries of this brilliant and patriotic initiative of the Asiwaju Tinubu Presidency.

Here is the lesson; when you hate, criminally defame and point accusing fingers at an innocent person, the remaining 4 fingers of illwind you wish others are pointing at you! You bless Nigeria, Nigeria will bless you, you curse Nigeria, Nigeria will curse you and your generations and nothing you sow in Nigeria or outside Nigeria will be blessed because the curse will follow you around!

May God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!

PALLIATIVES: LASG DISTRIBUTES ‘OUNJE EKO’ TO RELIGIOUS LEADERS IN LAGOS

In furtherance of its humanitarian intervention to cushion the effects of the harsh economy, the Lagos State Government, through the Ministry of Home Affairs, has commenced the distribution of 20, 000 food packs to Religious Leaders across the five divisions of the State.

Speaking to journalists during the presentation to Religious Leaders earlier today, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Home Affairs, Mr. Adewunmi Ogunsanya stated that this action was a continuation of the State government’s intervention programme which cuts across all sectors in the State.

He noted that the Ministry has commenced the distribution of 20,000 food packs, which consist of 10kg Rice, 5kg Beans and 5kg Garri, to be given to all over 94 Associations of both the Christian Muslim communities in the State.

Ogunsanya explained that representatives of each religious group have been invited and they have started collecting the palliatives on behalf of the various associations.

According to the Permanent Secretary, the distribution has been decentralised so that 3000 packs of 'Ounje Eko’ will be distributed per day to each Religious body, adding that each division of the State will receive 500 packs each to be shared among its members.

The Special Adviser to the Governor on Islam, Dr. Abdullahi Jebe hinted that the gesture from the State Government will go a long way to alleviate the effect of the present economic pressure on the religious communities, as food remains an essential part of man’s basic needs.

Similarly, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Christianity, Very Reverend Adebukola Adeleke noted that the State Government is sensitive to the plights of the Religious Leaders and their members, hence the need for the distribution of the food palliatives to assuage the high cost of food in the markets.

The distribution, which commenced today, Wednesday will continue till Tuesday, 20th August, 2024.

Is this another knee jack one off reaction after which the people are on their own. Or is this a sustained help program designed to support the people for the long run

I told you lot a few days ago, these extremists, criminals, some illegals are trouble. I called them out for their criminal behaviour and got attacked for it by some here.

Now, Muslim gangs are trying to attack anyone who disagrees with them, waving weapons around despite all the recent stabbings and terrorist attacks they've been responsible for. Religious extremists are always a threat, and you need to deal with them.

Look at Bangladesh, the military's taken over and Islamic extremists are burning Hindu temples. No one's saying a word. People need to stand up for our own and defend their homes from Invaders. The threat's real, and we can't ignore it.

The biggest problem we've got now is traitors and extremely woke liberals who think it's trendy to cuddle with terrorists.

Well, this is what happens when you let them flood into your country and do as they please. Notice how their supporters never say a peep about it, but the minute you stand up to them or defend your own, they twist the whole story and scream 'racist' or 'Islamophobe'. It's a bloody disgrace.
