ProudlyLagos: 🤣🤣🤣 nwokem bikonu, I’m not responsible for your frustration, and tears but if you have more questions to ask, Google is your friend……I got zero tolerance for ipobidient zombies🤣🤣😁😁
ProudlyLagos: Otondo…..you can only deceive yourself, you never voted for them because you love them everyone knows you have always been pdp slaves not until recently when your Agulu package fraud was tried to force down our throat
But he was rejected by majority of Nigerians who already saw through his ethnic agenda we know y’all are still mourning your loss to the almighty Yorubas again
Both politically and economically, we continue to dominate you clowns get well soon nwokem
If you say obi is bad for Nigeria and is rejected, how has tinubu who has been accepted successfully tackled corruption, nepotism, cronyism, hunger, unemployment, hardship, poverty, inflation, wasteful government spending, budget padding, insecurity, bad governance, failing public infrastructure, poor medial services and falling standard of education?
emkz: Some people will argue that Financial Times was bribed to launder the image of the government.
There are many of them who'd never see anything good with their own country. The celebrate failure and lack of progress. But they openly celebrate a glaring failure who cannot even manage internal party crisis.
We were here in 2015 where things were gruseomely bad. We were here when states were insolvent. We were here when subsidy scam was exposed and many people were implicated. We were here when former President Buhari bailed out states. We were also here when money was borrowed to pay salaries.
Today, we are seeing glimmers of hope:
1. More than 54 billion naira was ploughed from EFCC recoveries to student loan funds. No one has come out to say student loans were a bad idea.
2. There are now development commissions for the geopolitical zones. That is to bring development to the people. No one has successfully faulted them.
3. Nigeria fulfilled the debt repayment obligations to IMF for the Covid-19 funds. Even those who celebrate negativity had nothing to say.
4. We cannot deny that security has improved. I only ask that decisive actions be taken against those funding insecurity and their soldiers.
5. We also cannot deny that Nigeria ramped up oil production.
6. Increased revenues have accrued to states. Some naysayers argue that the dollar equivalent is actually a drop in revenue allocation. Except you import from abroad, you have no business with dollar rate.
7. After 8 years of a comatose FCT minister, no one can deny that the FCT administration is now more active than ever. President Tinubu made a good call in appointing Wike to lead the FCT.
8. The most important accomplishment is that Nigeria is still one indivisible country. We can see that what is causing crises in the opposition parties include disunity and selfishness. Without unity, there can be no progress.
9. Another important accomplishment is freedom. The freedom we enjoy in Nigeria cannot be granted to anyone in other democracies.
As for those who are angling for power, they have not told us what they'd do differently. They simply cannot articulate ideas of development. We have asked them to explain to us their strategic plans. All they want is to send Tinubu back to Lagos.
Please, who among them is actually better than Tinubu based on track records?
even tinubu knows that he has failed.

May Day: Hunger, unemployment, insecurity real— Tinubu
According to him: “The theme demands our collective attention and serves as a stark reminder of the need to create an environment where every worker feels safe, valued, and empowered to contribute to the growth and prosperity of our nation. As your President, I assure you that this administration is committed to creating such an environment for the common good.”
On the economic hardship, he noted that while it is a global phenomenon, its effects on Nigerians are particularly severe.
Tinubu said: “I am aware of the peculiarities of the economic hardship Nigerians face—rising living costs, hunger, insecurity, unemployment, and the loss of livelihoods. These challenges are real and demand definitive solutions, which I am poised to address as your President.

which track record are you referring to?
how has tinubu successfully tackled corruption, nepotism, cronyism, hunger, unemployment, hardship, poverty, inflation, wasteful government spending, budget padding, insecurity, bad governance, failing public infrastructure, poor medial services and falling standard of education?
simpleseyi: Anybody wey wan cry, make e cry, Tinubu is matching forward
how has tinubu successfully tackled corruption, nepotism, cronyism, hunger, unemployment, hardship, poverty, inflation, wasteful government spending, budget padding, insecurity, bad governance, failing public infrastructure, poor medial services and falling standard of education?
The reforms are taking shape and some are underway while others are being studied. While all of that is being done. There's need to stay focus for a reelection since there are forces that are waking up to tarnish the president's efforts.
It's definitely going to be 4 + 4
how are the "reforms" taking shape?
if the "reforms" are so good, what are you doing in America?
how has tinubu used his reforms to successfully tackle corruption, nepotism, cronyism, hunger, unemployment, hardship, poverty, inflation, wasteful government spending, budget padding, insecurity, bad governance, failing public infrastructure, poor medial services and falling standard of education?
I thought you said that the "winning team" won the presidency
Factcheck0001: the presidency that is making u wail today
how has this "winning team" used the presidency that it has won to successfully tackle corruption, nepotism, cronyism, hunger, unemployment, hardship, poverty, inflation, wasteful government spending, budget padding, insecurity, bad governance, failing public infrastructure, poor medial services and falling standard of education?
helinues: You have been casted with your unnecessary questions. Stop derailing threads
what makes the question below unnecessary?
can you show how the thread has been derailed?
WizardOfNG: Discuss ideas if you can and it will be obvious Tinubu, more than any other President post-1999, is firmly and clearly restructuring Nigeria for those who understands what restructuring is and what it aims to achieve
which restructuring is tinubu restructuring nigeria that is not already in the constitution?
WizardOfNG: When I tell you to stop arguing emotionally and pettily, based on personalised hatred for individuals like Tinubu, you start rolling on the floor like a baby.
Yet, again, you hijack an interesting topic to attack Tinubu as a "hypocrite" who cannot restructure Nigeria and make it appear OP is now recanting and claiming only a Northerner can when OP actually said "best" and not "only".
Yet I urge you, and other Nairalanders as well, to look at the bolded part in your post. The smartest, most critical thinking and most pragmatically discerning Nigerians will know Tinubu is aware of the bolded.
It is obvious knowledge of the bolded in your post, i.e awareness that thousands of Shiek Gumi exist to claim Tinubu's restructuring is a deliberate effort to pauperise the North, is guiding the utterances and actions of PBAT.
He is not overtly and openly shouting "restructuring" but only sentimental and biased folks , like you, will not understand many of his policies and reforms are key component of restructuring in all but name.
From removal of fuel subsidy, graudual phasing out of electricity subsidy, replacing education subsidy with loans to attract money into the education sector that then improves the quality of education delivered, floatation of the Naira, establishment of six regional development councils, Forest guards, total deregulated freedom of States to create, control and operate their own power solution etc, etc, etc, etc.
Even a blind man will be capable of discerning and 'seeing' much more than a prejudiced and simple-minded man, with problem-free vision, who prefers to shut his eyes and mind to remain very blind to what is obvious because he is always focused on individuals and never ideas.
This is a fine and educational topic I am sure you and others will use your small-minded outlook to ruin because of hatred for an individual i.e Tinubu.
Discuss ideas if you can and it will be obvious Tinubu, more than any other President post-1999, is firmly and clearly restructuring Nigeria for those who understands what restructuring is and what it aims to achieve
which restructuring is tinubu restructuring nigeria that is not already in the constitution?
pls tell me how has "presi oloye" successfully tackled corruption, nepotism, cronyism, hunger, unemployment, hardship, poverty, inflation, wasteful government spending, budget padding, insecurity, bad governance, failing public infrastructure, poor medial services and falling standard of education?
WizardOfNG: A Northern President will never restructure Nigeria. The sustenance of their leaders and elite, from politics through religious and cultural involvement, is now inextricably Linked to them having access to FG cash and ststipend. We must remember they created this rod for their own backs.
Till today, long after Awolowo liberated the Yorubas with free education, how many Northern leaders, to include the malevolently loquacious Atiku, do you see dedicating time and effort to achieving similar? I.e education, as much as possible, for all Northern children and especially the girl-child?
Instead their main concern is controlling the Presidency or head of State office that, already, they have held longest yet done nothing of note with.
It is like needing oxygen to survive. If you are to do without it then you need options. The North is not giving herself options and seem incapable of ever doing so, to the detriment of the rest of us, so others must move on for the sake of themselves and generations unborn.
A Southern President can restructure Nigeria and Tinubu is doing so in all but name. The key is to give every region the autonomy to control her own destiny rather than a deliberate effort to harm the fortune of the North.
Why should I tell you not to send your own child to the finest private school just to spare the feelings of my family when we refuse to do what it will take to ever send our child to a similar school? If my offsprings them get left behind, how is that your fault or headache let alone responsibility to fix?
what restructuring are you expecting nigeria to be restructured that is not in the constitution?
are states not regions?
do they not have autonomy to control her own destiny?
AntiChristian: I spoke to a Nigerien living in Ghana a few days ago and from what I learnt the cost of living in Ghana is worse. In the capital of Accra is even much worse!
He came to buy things in Lagos from Ghana.
He doesn't even buy things in Ghana as it's cheaper crossing over to Togo and buying over there. He lives close to the border.

Annahh: You sef go and marry, what are you waiting for...
It's not usually said to women cause a man might not approach a woman which might be the reason for delay but a man in his 40s not married is a RED flag....
What makes it a red flag?
If the guy ask you to marry him, will you marry him?
