Chinkoalhaji34: Na wah! If only Peter Obi fit get this kind creative protest, maybe e for don get better sense. But alas, donkey no go fit carry the burden of his political naivety. At least Tinubu don inspire them to use their brains, even if na just to name donkey!
are you afraid of northerners that even when they insult your yoruba champion who has failed more than all ngerian presidents put together, you cant get angry but its peter obi that you are masturbating over?
trutharena: These Northern youths are just looking for attention, meanwhile, President TINUBU is busy transforming the nation with impactful policies. Their protest won't stop the progress we're witnessing across the country!
indeed he has transformed nigeria
dollar, from N700 to N1600 bag of rice, from 30k to 80k fuel price, from 200 to 1100 inflation, from 27% to 40% borrowing between june and december 2023...N3tr
Guestlander: And they were protesting because Nigeria was so good and they couldn't take all the good leadership they were getting? Did you know how many people died in those protests/riots?
you claimed that nigerians could not protest under military rule
Guestlander: Nonsense. Nigeria wasn't at it's best. You just couldn't protest like you are doing right now. You can even receive a letter bomb and get blown to pieces. That was your best?
when did these protests I listed below take place?
nigerian students not protest against obasanjo in 1978
Titus Sardine price is just a reflection of global trends, not solely Tinubu's doing. Let’s focus on the bigger picture and support our leaders instead of spreading negativity.
how is titus sardine a reflection of global trends?
what are the global trends?
is the global trends responsible for the price of onions, pepper, tomatoes, yam and garri?
what is the bigger picture to be focus on?
are the leaders spreading positivity or negativity?
what is the kind of support you are referring to?
is it the lack of the support that made tinubu to display gross incompetence in managing the affairs of nigeria?
straighttalk: Whichever Way you choose to interpret it is still very dangerous.
Today's generation of our youths never know what we experienced in the hands of Abacha and as such are not 🚫 in the position to invite military into the politics
Guestlander: Nonsense. Nigeria wasn't at it's best. You just couldn't protest like you are doing right now. You can even receive a letter bomb and get blown to pieces. That was your best?
how many times do Nigerians protest at all?
did nigerian students not protest against obasanjo in 1978, babangida in 1989 (Anti-SAP riots), riots against world bank loan in 1990, June 12 riots in 1993 up to 1994?
chatinent: No clear separation of power and check and balances. In Nigeria, overwhelming power is surged to the central govt alone that's why overwhelming blames he'll receive.
If the central govt made a policy (eg the fuel increase case), and the state had power to veto it, it's a different case. Also, many governors are acting like microphones...some don't even know what the concurrent list says and that they can actually veto some things on the legislative list. They aren't interested in the people but themselves alone.
Prenonjebose: There's a need for massive restructuring of the country, yes, but it must start with demystifying the elitism associated with the political class. They are too wasteful and self entitled. The major problem is also they are so insensitive and insincere to the challenges confronting the people. They have been allowed to make political offices too attractive for far too long. This is the reason they have made it a do or die affair during election and while in office. The present two chambers of assembly is the worst in recent times, with a most disdainful Senate President. This needs restructuring. The number of Ministers is too much. What's the purpose of a junior and senior minister. Over bloated political offices to accommodate political allies, friends and family is unsustainable and unnecessary in the current realities. They want the people to adjust to poverty, while they continue in their pilfering, proclivities and brigandage. It's insulting to Nigerians that the leaders collude with external institutions and organisations to impose strict policies that have little or no bearing on the actual issues confronting farmers, and by extension food security.
is it the governors that removed fuel subsidy to share to themselves?
if there has never been a time where governors used allocations well, why will tinubu "remove" fuel subsidy that benefitted everybody and start sharing it for governors who he knows have never accounted for any monies allocated to them?
Ironbull: Bro they have tried everything yet Tinubu refused to fall. I told them everybody in life have his or her own moment, when God pick somebody call just leave that person, focus on your life and wait for your own moment. it is Tinubu moment nothing anyone can donabout it, Jah give power to whoever pleases Him.
Now see as all their online lies was busted live from Kano. Shame on you all sour losers.
Tinubu refused to fall? someone that has failed in every indices of governance that you say refused to fall?
talking of "refusing to fall", I dont know what you want us to call this. did anybody try anything that made this happen?
Salewa97: It's quite concerning to hear that Customs is not adhering to Tinubu's directive. This inconsistency could hinder the efforts to alleviate hunger in Nigeria. I trust that Tinubu will address this issue swiftly because he has shown commitment to making food affordable for all Nigerians. Let's hope for a resolution soon!
which effort is being made to alleviate hunger in nigeria?
thesicilian: We have a democratically elected government in place. Any emergency lover of the nation who attempts a coup must make sure he succeeds. Otherwise it shall be worse for him and his family than it was for Sodom and Gomorrah.
if you say "We have a democratically elected government in place", how democratic has the government been in its actions?
Image123: Don't play. When you see all these Sowore, Falana, Aisha and co always shouting at the top of their voices, no matter what the government does, don't be fooled to think they love you.
can you tell us what the government has done that is so good that is not worth the shouting of the people you mentioned?
Salewa97: N5,000 or not, these protesters are just wasting their time.
Is it not clear that shouting in the streets won't change anything? They should channel that energy into something productive instead of chanting and rejecting money like it's a badge of honor. Nigeria needs real solutions, not noise.
but you didnt answer he question that you were asked in your other account trutharena

dollar from 700naira to 1600 bag of rice from 30,000 to 80,000 inflation from 22.79% to 40.7% from june 2023 to december 2023, tinubu borrowed N3.8tr despite his imaginary savings he said he has made from removing fuel subsidy. the same subsidy he fought jonathan not to remove.
let us see below what he said about jonathan even though jonathan was doing much better than tinubu is presently doing:
11th January, 2012
Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) national leader and former governor of Lagos State, has accused the Jonathan presidency of betraying its social contract with the people by suddenly removing fuel subsidy. He, however, provided a window out of the crisis: if subsidy must be removed at all, it must never be at one fell swoop. Rather it must be on calibrated phrases, on which the promised gains are measured and confirmed before moving to the next phase of removal. “Government must modify the sudden and complete removal of the subsidy. Either we restore the subsidy or use the funds for other social purposes,” Asiwaju Tinubu counselled in a special release he captioned, ‘Removal of oil subsidy – President Jonathan breaks social contract with the people’ and which he personally signed. “If we are to use the funds for other programmes, these programmes shall be placed on parallel track with the subsidy. As more of these programmes are ready to go on line, then the subsidy can be lifted in phases” he continued. “In this way, the public is assured government will not lower its total expenditure on their behalf, thus maintaining the spirit central to the social contract.” But the former governor cautioned the federal government against economic policies that tend to balance the books at the detriment of the people’s welfare. “As there is progressive politics, there is progressive economics. As there is elitist politics, there is elitist economics,” Asiwaju Tinubu explained. “It all depends on what and who in society government would rather favour. The Jonathan tax,” he declared, “represents a new standard in elitism.” But the ACN national leader cautioned the president against being captive to economic orthodoxy and its local purveyors, who always look at the Nigerian economy as nothing until when tied to the apron strings of the conservative orthodoxy. “Because he is slave to wrong-headed economics,” Asiwaju Tinubu said of President Goodluck Jonathan, “the people will become enslaved to greater misery. This crisis will bear his name and will be his legacy. The people now pay a steep tax for voting him into office. The removal of the subsidy is the ‘Jonathan tax’,” he insisted. “The situation shows that ideas count more than personalities. People may occupy office but how that person performs depends on the ideas that occupy his mind.” Insisting that the subsidy removal was ill-timed, he said there must be some conditions precedent before such a step could be taken. “First government needs to clean up and throw away the salad of corruption in the NNPC [Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation]. Then, proceed to lay the foundation for a mass transit system in the railways and road network with long term bonds and,” he added, “fully develop the energy sector towards revitalising Nigeria’s economy and easing the burden any subsidy removal may have on the people.” The former governor however counselled protesters to go about the protests in a peaceful manner, and to eschew all forms of violence.
TimeManager: We knew from the begining that the protest was tainted with a political agenda sponsored by election losers. All of you will continue to lose.
God bless President Bola Ahmed Tinubu
God bless Nigeria.
-Kiss the truth!
who are the election losers that you say sponsored the protests?
