anonimi:
Was the letter acknowledged by INEC also forged

u forged a university certification, you used it for employment and u where employed by shell. Bcus shell emoloy you using ur forged certificate, does it mean it's not forged?

Sonnobax15:

Nothing wey APC dey do today wey PDP never do in the past before. But today, where's the PDP? . Hasn't it gone into oblivion?

Make una no worry cha,cuz the same thing wey happen for goat house today go still happen for sheep house tomorrow.

really, since u know pdp has done all this before, then why are u supporting the people who where in that pdp before now na. What happen to all the youth supporting a neutral person like VDM, even buying him a nomination form, and vote for him massively, the youth alone can decide the fate of Nigeria. But all of them are busy choosing side with same old politicians

wellmax:
Just imagine Seyi or in fact any politician locking up anyone for this crime, yes it’s a crime, the noise for this internet for plenty.

hmm, this is exactly the double standard I'm talking about, it's not only in this case, but it's visible all over Nigeria youth even past years, some people will do something and they will support and hail him, but let people they don't support do that sane thing, they will crucify him online. Nigerians are just like Chelsea fans, just noise makers

PulaPower:
You didn’t say this when your Agulu fraud shared buckets for you guys..

Hypocrite..

the West love sharing rice, the east love sharing kerosene, what does the north love sharing?

Obainomilano:
Or maybe there were no coupist just another apshit propaganda

I am just laughing because here is what will happen. If your political party or your preferred person gets into power and someone tries to remove them by coup, you will strongly condemn that coup. You will call for the heads of the coup plotters. But the same people who are now calling for the heads of the current coup plotters will then support that future coup. So everyone just changes their mind based on which side they are on. That is Nigeria for you. Everything is just politics and sides. Everyone sees their own side as the messiah, even when both sides are the same group of people who have already held important positions in this country before. And Nigeria remains the same. Funny set of people.

There is this activist who has never held any political post in Nigeria. What is his name again? He has been very vocal and has run for president many times, but nobody pays him attention. He is not connected to any old leader or northern cabal. That is the type of person who does not owe anyone anything. If the youth backed someone like that, he would definitely try his best. Not all these past leaders who have nothing new to offer and are just obsessed with power. What are Atiku, El-Rufai, Kwankwaso, David, Obi, Fayemi, Rotimi, Wike, ambode, Fayose, Tinubu coming to do? We have been complaining about bad leadership in Nigeria for the past 30 years. These people were the leaders back then. If they did not transform Nigeria then, how can you magically think they can do it now? Especially now that the whole world is in turmoil and there is a recession everywhere. The world economy is not what it was 15 or 20 years ago. The present leaders in Nigeria are still the same set of people who have one way or the other held leadership positions before, yet things remain the same. This should tell you that doing the same thing over and over will not work. Recycling old leaders will not change anything.

I know you will not understand what I am saying because you will hold tightly to the point that I am against what you support. You might even try to counter me with baseless points. That is expected. And I am not trying to convince anyone. I am just stating a point from someone who has not chosen sides and is just watching from afar.

Although even a fresh candidate with no political history might still fail. That is because the problem is not just the individual leader. The real problem is the system. Corruption is very deep. Our institutions are weak. Many people working in government from the local level to the federal level are not ready to work for the country. So even if a good person becomes president, the people around him may block him. But still, trying a completely new person who owes nobody anything is better than recycling the same old faces. Because Nigeria cannot keep doing the same thing and expect change. That is just a fact.

Amumaigwe:
The way you are holding onto the past, are you sure you have a future?

Thus is the reason why VDM no dey praise Tinumbe at all even if he do good,lol. Bcus ge no say our youth for nigeria daft, and most youth no like Tinubu. If he talk good thing about Tinubu like this he go lose many supporters quickly. So he just dey give the youth what dey want and he stays neutral and he call out the govt when necessary. Lol. Wise very dark man

masterfactor:
I hope you won't say it propaganda, it from CNN

even with clear evidence they will still have something to say

esnbrutality:
The same Party was loyal to him and help immensely in helping install the present government and he was betrayed and dehumanized by the same people.

The fact remains, why was he detained when

Okowa and co were involved in same acts. Abi the case with icpc don change?

Face your warrant alone...

Southern unity is DEAD.

u are still playing politics. If u really want better for Nigeria, u will have realise non of the past and present politicians in Nigeria can make that happen. I dont play politics, I dont know any names. All I hope for is all of them going one by one until we have new sets

Vision101:
They make money in Nigeria but they will not invest the money in Nigeria. 106 properties in foreign land and just a handful in his native land where he made the money. That's why I love Dangote.

make money how, or they stole money

Leepeak:

Herbert my guy
One reason I love dangote
Someone I know who have been working with him , said aliko nor get property for outside Nigeria, he even said it, two property na him get, one In Lagos, and kano
Invested heavily in Nigeria, and outside Nigeria but those investment are In Africa
Nothing wrong if having a property outside, but if u really wise u go make Nigeria a better place, did they buried him in London or ph

bcus Herbert na ur guy. Now there is nothing wrong in have 106 highly property outside. The way he acquired the money to get those properties no consign you. But if too say no be ur guy, he for consign u abi

olaniyilukman:
They are all thieves but i don't blame them, the weak financial regulations allow this madness to happened.. All unnecessary charges should be abolished by the CBN and people should be collecting interest on thier savings

who was the cbn govornor that empower them? Or are u saying federal govt should forget democracy and take over all factions, govornors, judges etc and control them by the President. No more democracy just like China. The center should control all and all

Kastonkastroll:
I'm not even a fan of elrufai but I just feel the government treated the man unfairly. Just look at the baseless charges against him by ICPC and you will know the agency just wanted to nail something on him either by hook or crook. Things that every public servant in Nigeria is guilty of.


And now that he lost his mother, you are granting him bail that was previously declined. See Nuhu ribadu and his friends should leave the man alone.

E don do!

isn't this what we wanted in Nigeria, all our past leaders should go one by one. Or are u against this bcus it's been carried out by a party you dont support?.

koolib:
I'm not surprised. He was shamelessly reckless with money and was nicknamed ATM

some other people would have started crying which hunt, why did they not probe so and so, why did they probe only him.

The tanker driver parked at the middle of the road, I mean the fast lane, he parked there to buy bread. Nigerians and her government sha. Same characters

10 years ban loading for senegal

Shouldn't she be arrested as an accomplice, since she knew her husband is a bandit. She kept leaving with him, probably cooking for his kidnap victim and she didnt report him to the secolurity agency, isn't that enough evidence to pick her up. She still have the got to post online

adaxme:
Burna only cares about his Fancy cars not the masses

he should just sell one of his fancy cars, add it to the 300m he want to use for fixing the basic school, he shoukd do the riad plus the school for them, then make he compt his hand pata pata and put his nans fir the road.

Its religion USA want to use to enter Nigeria matter. They atr building it up small small, the finsh Venezuela case enter iran own, once them finish iran maybe its Nigeria next

Brendaniel:
So Tinubu supporters have been making excuses and giving Tinubu options despite selling crude oil at over 100 dollars per barrel like in GEJ's time without paying any subsidy for Nigerians for over 1000 naira per litre.


These same people wanted to crucify Jonathan who was paying subsidy for them at about 75 naira per litre with the same over 100 dollars per barrel Tinubu is selling it now.


I ask: Why were they angry with Jonathan who treated them better than Tinubu is treating them now?

Answer: Tribalism

who said GEJ should not have balls like Trump and Tinubu. When late buhari wanted to remove subsidy, opposition also oppose him and he didn't. Then came the baba nla, the one with the balls. He removed subsidy even before his inauguration. That is what we call balls.

If GEJ really knows what he was doing then and stand his ground just the way Tinubu did, he would have successfully removed subsidy then. All he want was he was only finding good face so he will go for second term that is why he revert. Tinubu no send una, first term or not, Baba remove subsidy sharply

Mattswaggz:
I said it....the US and Israel already knew Iran will put up a good fight and it won't be a walk over but they're ready to see it through till the end.....and once Iran is crippled they'll never let it get this strong again.

seems u guys dont even read the lines. Trump that has been finding a way to stay in power for ever till aged just like putin, Netanyahu, China leader, North Korea leader. That is exactly what tryo is gunning for deep down in his heart, to stay in power 10- 20 years. Since he got into power this 2nd term, its trouble upon trouble.

Though I know bcus ur thought has already been one-sided, and u have chosen sides already, you wont be able to understand or see what others sees. Anyways this is for educational purposes only. Not an attack

QuinQ:
Not Nairaland's fault. Things wax and wane. Many forums have totally disappeared. New and more things come up. There's only so much attention available. TikTok was not around when Nairaland started, neither was Snapchat and many others, neither was monitization of many sites. Facebook has also become smaller than before, while WhatsApp has become bigger. Newer generation has many more choices and can also make money elsewhere. Things change and sometimes there's nothing you can do about it!

yes we can say many things came up and its not nairaland's fault, but we shouldn't forget then, it was twitter and nairaland forum that has the most traffic and sometimes compete in Nigeria. I could also remember people have been asking for changes and update long time ago, so the forum could compete. Where is twitter today?. Yet we can categoraly compare twitter with nairaland because they are far apart and they serve different purposes. But nonetheless twitter engages in constant upgrade

Only 13 page yet for this your post. When nairaland was at its primed, this your post would have definitely reached 40pages by now. There was a time I could never resist the urge to check nairaland every 30min every day for 365 days. But now, I can go days without even login in.

Richtaiwo:
This makes absolutely no sense to me, unless there’s some secret dictionary defining what I just read.

CBN deliberately slowing appreciation of the naira? For what exactly?

u can just type it on chatgpt na, just a simple prompt, 'why did the CBN mob up dollars in Nigeria to prevent naira futhrr appreciation against the dollars.'

I wonder how most Nigeria are graduate with first class or second class upper o.

ahmedio2017:
If your parents has sponsored your education up to university level, you have inherited everything on earth....

In Nigeria, this statement sounds nice but it’s not the reality for many students. Plenty of parents only handle the beginning, then leave the child to struggle through the rest of university alone fees, rent, feeding, everything.
What makes it worse is the attitude. Many of these same parents disappear when the student is suffering, but once the child succeeds, they quickly come out to claim the glory and say they “trained” the child. If the child fails, they distance themselves and blame the same child.
Let’s be honest many Nigerian students succeed because of their own struggle and resilience, not because they were fully supported from start to finish.

Julibet:
From VDM's video, it's clear the young girl of 18 is depressed, suicidal and into drugs. She's a victim of unfortunate circumstance and should be rehabilitated.

At least she didn't accuse any real person. She clearly hallucinated the events due to her taking codeine and sprite to sleep because of her insomnia.

She needs mental help biko.

someone clearly admit on social media that she takes codien which is illegal and she broke the law, yes she might need mental help, but she will receive the help in jail. If police search you on the way and deybsaw codien in your position, you will explain tire in jail

energy37:
Power sector has been liberalised. A State, Local Government, Corporate Bodies, Institutions especially Higher Institution of Learning and individuals can obtain license to generate and distribute power. Stop drawing us back with unnecessary argument on the issue of power. With information available, Obafemi Awolowo University and University of Ibadan may soon detach from the National Grid. Oyo State muted that idea for the State Secretariat Area covering Agodi GRA and some neighbouring community but I don't know what the Governor has done about this.

OK. Pls tell this to the people that are still insulting the President that we dont have 24hrs power in Nigeria. What are you even trying to claim from your writeup? Bcus I dont understand how it correlate with what I said

YesDaddyTill203:
If all previous govts were this good with just road construction in Nigeria, we wouldn't be making a big deal out of it.
The sad reality is that most of the previous govts dropped the ball when it comes to the transportation network.
Without a proper transportation network, your economy is stuck in reverse.

One of the things that makes the US and other developed countries great is the ability to move people and goods easily.

Now we need the govt to be laser-focused on electricity as the next major challenge by next year.

Maybe the President should move Eng. Umahi to power after the election.

Nigeria does not have the money to achieve 24hrs electricity yet even if they want to. Using the current Nigeria national budget, that is if you are to divert all the budget to electricity, it will still take about 8 to 10 years accumulation to get the amount that might give us 24hrs electricity
