Don’t patronize me with that lazy “read again” nonsense. I read it just fine the first time—and what’s actually contradicting here is your ability to process what was said.

The man’s point was that governors and lawmakers are endorsing the president because he’s funneled more money their way—not because of national progress, not because of any transformative leadership, but because their pockets are heavier. That’s not a justification—it’s an indictment.

So when I call that out as corruption, not merit, you say I’m contradicting him? No—I’m exposing him. You’re just too comfortable with mediocrity and greed masquerading as governance to admit it.

Here’s the bottom line: if a president needs to grease the hands of governors and lawmakers with outrageous allocations just to earn their endorsement, that’s not democracy—that’s organized looting. And if you’re defending that, then don’t pretend you care about Nigeria. You're just defending a feeding trough because your favorite pigs are the ones eating.

Now go read that again—slowly this time.

So let me get this straight—you're saying that because Tinubu has increased the personal benefits of governors and lawmakers, it justifies their endorsement of him for a second term? Are you even listening to yourself? Since when did self-serving greed become a benchmark for national leadership?

What you’re defending isn’t governance; it’s a transactional racket where public funds are weaponized to buy loyalty from the political elite, all at the expense of the people. Increased allocations to governors? A billion naira for each National Assembly member under the guise of "constituency projects"? Show us the impact. Where are the results? Or do you think Nigerians are too blind or too beaten down to question this blatant looting?

You say, “Who else should endorse him?” How about the Nigerian people? Or do they not count in your idea of democracy anymore?

And your lazy jab about voters not coming out—do you even care to ask why? Maybe it’s because people are sick of a political system rigged in favor of politicians who endorse each other while the country crumbles. Maybe it's because no matter who they vote for, they end up with leaders more loyal to their bank accounts than the citizens.

Now let me ask you—is this what you think a president should be doing? Using national resources to bribe the political class into backing him? Is that your idea of leadership? If so, then you’re part of the problem.

I have read most of the replies here, and all I can say is that; most men here are broken, and haven't healed from whatever pain, or trauma a lady they once dated caused them in the past.

Inasmuch as, I would say women shouldn't generalized all men as being scums, I would also say that single men should not generalize all women as being the same.

We meet different people with different personalities and whatsoever else they are silently fighting that they often times don't talk about or heal from.

Hence, its paramount that each gender gets to treat each other based on the present, not based on how another person has once treated them in past relationships.

This way, one doesn't loose or miss out on someone who could have been their soulmate, or a destined partner.

It's true that some men are demons, and that some women will help you see shege and won't care. But if one keeps treating every lady or guy that comes along based on past experiences or hurt, then the rate of divorce in the next 5/10 years will be way higher than now with no love, loyalty, commitment, or true friendship.

It's not about brokenness
As a simp (what you call big boy), giving gifts undeservingly to random ladies to win their love means you contribute to the growth of the population of entitled ladies in the society. That attitude of trying to buy love also smacks of low self esteem.

Ruke1991:
Buying expensive things for any woman or throwing cash at them is the biggest mistake any man can make in this life or in the life after. Allow women to struggle and pay their personal bills alone, so that the stress can help them break the follow-come coconut in their brain. Until that coconut is broken, women cannot know the dignity of labour and their brain can never be useful

Hamas are going to be thoroughly dealt with. It doesn't matter how many tears their sympathisers shed. Israel no longer gives a rat's ass about all the noise, they're focused on completing their mission to uproot Hamas.

Nigeria and it's archaic way of doing things. Database would sound like something futuristic to the correctional facility management

fman:
No proper database.
Despite the heavy fundings.
Been obsolete is a Nigerian facility option.

IyfeNamikaze:
They have lost that ability to fire rocket into Israel, most of if not all Hamas fighters and officials have all gone underground, they're boxed into a corner and facing complete annihilation at the moment. They're hoping that propaganda and sentiments is going to halt Israel offensive

Seyi Tinubu’s recent escapades amount to a grotesque parody of power—a civilian prince without a crown, meddling in matters far above his station. Let it be clear: he holds no constitutional office, no electoral mandate, and no moral license to parade through state functions like Nigeria is some inherited fiefdom.

His repeated breaches of protocol, flamboyant insertions into state affairs, and unchecked gall are not only insulting to the dignity of the Nigerian presidency—they are corrosive to democratic optics at home and abroad.

This is a republic, not a royal dynasty. Nigeria does not recognize heirs to the presidential throne.

If he wishes to serve, let him run for office like every other Nigerian citizen, not gallop through the corridors of power on the coattails of nepotism. His father, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, must rein him in—not tomorrow, but now—before these childish indulgences metastasize into a national embarrassment.

Nigeria deserves leadership, not lineage. Let that be understood—loudly, clearly, and constitutionally.

Trump just finished an official tour of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE....Not one picture or video had any of his Sons in it.
