ezegold4we:those guys have been quiet recently. sometimes tinubus failure is not easy to defend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7CtaEudvx8 |
trutharena:indeed tinubu is a man of action. let us see some of his actions. 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. he has really turned things around. which turning around are you still expecting? ![]() 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. https://pmnewsnigeria.com/2012/01/11/tinubu-jonathan-has-betrayed-the-people/ so why did tinubu not give jonathan a chance instead of asking for revolution and jonathans resignation? ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7CtaEudvx8 |
Usmanovic95:Proverbs 29:12 If a ruler listens to lies, all his officials become wicked. |
GOFRONT:your prayer cant change anything. you cant have a man in the highest office in the land whose only agenda is "emilokan" and you praying that whatever whatever is not your portion. leave prayer. read your Bible before you pray. Proverbs 29:2....When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked (Tinubu, Shettima, Akpabio) rule, the people mourn, groan and suffer. |
kedeojo:ok lets leave ayodele out of this and assume he didnt say anything. does tinubu have any solution the problems of this country? |
Lezzlie:he just needs to mention peter obi to ease his guilt, the guilt he has from supporting tinubu despite knowing that tinubu is a monumental disaster |
Chinkoalhaji34:who made made "empty promises"? ![]() why are you adding to tinubus disgrace on a daily basis? is it tinubu that has already failed that anybody will be scared if he succeeds? how can tinubu succeed when his only agenda is "emilokan"? the same man that said he will continue from where buhari stopped is now blaming buhari for his failure that he inherited a bad economy from buhari. jagaban indeed ![]() is he still actually asiwaju or he is asisehin? ![]() |
Chinkoalhaji34:tinubu is failing left, right, centre it is obi that you calling to come and wash away your guilt and shame ![]() pls which progress do you want the "they" to focus on? is it the "they" that created the hardship and that made inflation increase from 27% in june 2023 to more than 40% today? ![]() |
Chinkoalhaji34:who is preventing tinubu from having a chance to prove the naysayers wrong? ![]() see your tinubu asking nigerians to revolt against jonathan. under jonathan and under tinubu, which one was better? ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7CtaEudvx8 was tinubu giving jonathan a chance even though dollar was N200 and bag of rice N10k? ![]() |
Chinkoalhaji34:is this also doom and gloom? ![]() 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.

Sapasenator: Sapasenator: Sapasenator:now that tinubu has addressed you, what is the result of the address? did the address show you that he cares? you have already rightly called him useless. how can someone as useless as tinubu show you that he cares? |
franudi:what were you expecting? |

Alexis11:where did igbos say anything about the country going up in flame if one northerner is killed? |
ajimo54:how has tinubu done his best? even with withdrawal of subsidy, has it stopped tinubu from borrowing? from june 2023 to december 2023, are you aware that tinubu borrowed N3tr? are you aware that there is already another $500m tinubu has recently borrowed from AfDB? who are those that you say are living large? is it the people or politicians? can you tell me when in your entire life you have lived large because of the money borrowed by the government? is building a house for N21billion for shettima not living large? how come you dont see anything wrong with politicians spending so much on themselves but you feel it is wrong for the citizens to enjoy the wealth of this country? are you aware that tinubu, his vp, his ministers, members of the national assembly all enjoy free food, free accommodation, free transportation, free medicare all at home and abroad for themselves and their families, free security, free fuel, free clothing all at the expense of the country? is this not living large? how many nigerian citizens enjoy these freebies on government account? |
Philipponzaghi:what is the truth that tinubu has spoken? which dialogue do we need to dialogue? dialogue about what exactly? how is tinubu committed to tackling the economy and security? what is the result of this commitment? apart from "emilokan" and promising to continue from where buhari stopped, which promises did tinubu make? how has the country fared under tinubu so far? is it better or worse? |
Max24:that is not what I asked you. all you have said, is that not what the protest was about? how has this increased allocation made life better for nigerians compared to the subsidy that previously held down the price of fuel? where are you going to get accountability from your politicians? have previously obtained accountability from them in anything? is it nw that allocation increased that they will be accountable? who are these rent seekers? if you say the increased allocation "represents what was largely unaccounted hitherto and embezelled by rent seekers", has the increased allocation not been embezzled? |
Max24:all you have said, is that not what the protest was about? |
Chinkoalhaji34:so it is ipob that was demonstrating in the various states in the north? ![]() i honestly didnt know that peter obi is so powerful. so peter obi just mobilised the SW and almost the entire north to protest. then if we do election today, peter obi will win tinubu. thanks for letting us know how influential obi is. since you obi does not know anything about governance, tinubu that is in office how has he demonstrated that he anything abut governance? |

ade4real2016:what were yu expecting? am surprised that you guys expect so much from tinubu |
AAAA67:what were you expecting? you are expecting a wicked man to solve the problems he caused you? you can check some of my post when people were saying tinubu should come and address and I was telling them that address is a waste of time. tinubu will not say anything useful. the protesters didnt ask for address. they asked for certain things. if tinubu has not done any of those things, what will address do? |
Abagworo:thank you for this. you are blessed |
Max24:how has this increased allocation made life better for nigerians compared to the subsidy that previously held down the price of fuel? where are you going to get accountability from your politicians? have previously obtained accountability from them in anything? is it nw that allocation increased that they will be accountable? who are these rent seekers? if you say the increased allocation "represents what was largely unaccounted hitherto and embezelled by rent seekers", has the increased allocation not been embezzled? |
Chinkoalhaji34:i honestly didnt know that peter obi is so powerful. so peter obi just mobilised the SW and almost the entire north to protest. then if we do election today, peter obi will win tinubu. thanks for letting us know how influential obi is. since you obi does not know anything about governance, tinubu that is in office how has he demonstrated that he anything abut governance? |
Utanisco:i thought it was obi and igbos that were the problem? what did northerners do this time? how is tinubu the best president we ever had? |
