People are looking for food to eat….

Insecurity has become a major issue and this Olodo is advocating for night life 😆😆😆

He is very right....every modern economy should be a 24 hrs economy.....take Benin for example, everyone goes to bed by 9 pm....you can drive the entire Lagos rd and not see anyone at night......only airport rd and iyaro stays awake

Mrchippychappy:
In the old days when God wants to punish people, he would harden their hearts and bring a leader that would completely break them and shatter any dreams and hope the people ever had.


When this man finish with Nigeria, Somalia embassy would be filled with visa applications from Nigerians.

What is the man's fault in allowing free market in the petroleum sector.....do you even have any understanding of the issue... .what is happening is good as it will engender competition which will drive down prices or keep it from going too high.

Beyond the politics, what exactly can any president achieve in four years ? A president gets sworn in on 29th May of the election, he has to set up his government and he’s going to struggle with this for another 3-6 months. Even at that, he inherits a budget he knows absolutely nothing about from the former president and by law, he has to implement it.

Then there are various governors, senators, Reps and powerful political figures with diverse interests to deal with. By the end of the second year, political coalitions start springing up and politics has to take the center stage again. Boom, it’s four years and nothing much has changed.

It took Lee Kuan Yew 31 years to set Singapore on the path of sustained economic development. Paul Kagame has been president of Rwanda for the past 25 years and he’s still president because Rwanda is still not there yet.

So, anyone telling you all he needs to perform magic and turn a big, economically challenged, infrastructurally decayed, ethnically disunited and religiously divided Nigeria to Dubai in four years is a liar. It is the height of political desperation. It’s even more funny because this same guy had 8 years to turn a small, ethnically and religiously homogeneous Anambra around but left the state worse than he met it.

They are always quick to refer to Mandela and I tell them Mandela was nothing like a typical Nigerian a d intact not a politician at all.....obi is cut from the same cloth as every other Nigerian politician and if you believe his one term scam then you would believe a prostitue can be a virgin.... even GEJ said he wanted only one term.

kingbee90:
How does his thanks improve the life of an average Nigerian and better our shattered economy caused by the ir.a.gbi.ji fake Accountant?

Abeg let him shift joor!

It had bettered Mr dakolo's it has bettered the lives of many.....go to the rural areas and see people making money from agric......I know a young man that made 5m naira from garri processing,2 years ago he was an okada rider in Lagos..... people are positioning themselves for good opportunities you are still there wailing and dwelling in negativity.

Sirianese:
I love how the North is rocking him to sleep, they did the same to Jonathan

Tinubu is not Jonathan,the dynamics of 15 is different from now.....the north felt undone by GEJ for seeking a 2nd term when he was on borrowed tenure of the north....the north felt cheated and decided to pay him back in good measure but this time the north sees it as equitable and justified for the south to have their 8 years after they had theirs with Buhari.....and if you speak of the region that holds fairness and justice in the highest esteem,it's the northerners.

Bubu4Sea:
are the SE allowed to vote freely in Lagos?

Then how did obi win Lagos in 23.?

jmoore:
Soludo is talking about Anambra guber election.

If he is a man, let him mention the name Peter Obi in that statement.

Mandela promised to do one term. Soludo says he is a professor and he doesn't know Nelson Mandela.

Mandela isn't a politician.

dermmy:
How does denigrating Nigeria increase her chances of becoming a prime minister?

She can't be PM.....no one would elect anyone that denigrates her own people.....when you cast down your own people especially your family,no one will trust you with their own secrets.....many African communities in UK are not happy with her at all..... she's only serving amusement purposes for the whites.

fiercehillz:
Sapa nearly kpai this woman for Naija ooo... thank God for japa ooo.

Mama nor wan gree forgive Naija

She was from a privileged background,her father was a medical doctor to oil company her mother was in the academia!!

hatchy:
What is really wrong with this Kemi BadLuck of a Yoruba woman sef?
This woman is bent on demarketing Nigeria

Its a plus for Japan people....more reasons to seek for asylum abroad......just say you are trying to escape the hardship UK conservative leader ran from, simple!!

blingxx:
She’s not wrong tho only those who have been to boarding school will understand

People like Kemi needs to exist e Dey pepper Nigerians

My experience also made me swear never to allow my kids go to any boarding school.....it's a very dysfunctional environment and has a very tedious impact on the kids.

datola:
Kemi really suffered in Nigeria. She was traumatized by Nigeria.

And she is using the experience to gain sympathy and be more popular towards wimming the UK PM election.

She can't be PM,nobody would elect anyone who denigrates her own people.....so she doesn't do same to them after she get the power.

SmartPolician:
This lady is the weapon fashioned against agbadohh people and their yeye Escobar 😀😀😀😀

Tinubu was the president when she was in fggc sagamu? though I agree with are posit about Nigerians boarding schools because I was also part of it growing up and I must say it was hell on earth.....I swore that non of my kids would attend boarding school cos of my experience and I always discourage any parent pondering it.....maybe authorities would start looking into the standards now she has raised it

JuanDeDios:
Hehehe. This woman is on a roll.

"She recalled exchanging her meals for books and losing a significant amount of weight due to a poor diet and her aversion to certain foods, particularly fish."

I tok am. Auntie na mami wata!

I don't eat boiled fish also in any form.....maybe I be papi water too?

AMINDA:
Truer words have never been spoken. On the flip side, Tinubu and his erstwhile APC allies in Kano state appear to be at each other's jugular lately. Tinubu is struggling to prove to Kwankwaso that he's done with Ganduje all in a bid to get him to decamp. Gawuna, APC's gubernatorial candidate in 2023 just got relieved of his federal appointment while Tinubu keeps holding publicised meetings with allies of Kwankwaso like Abdulmuminu Jubrin. Clearly, Tinubu is desperate.

https://dailytrust.com/tinubu-removes-gawuna-as-buk-governing-council-chairman-names-replacement/

He is still chairman of FHA which is even a juicier appointment.... Stop raising imaginary beef where there is non.....ganduje has never told you he has any problems with tinubu.

Bubu4Sea:
The South East has been constantly marginalised, nobody complains


The South East is hated.
let them leave as they are hated, yet the rest of the country is scared to let them leave in peace

The south east has long distanced themselves from this govt and have declared their hatred for the president because he defeated their brother in 23....they have no right to expect anything from it ahead of others regions aligned to tinubu.

anonimi:
Me sef dey wonder the logic behind his decision to call this a good idea after ebilokan saved $84 billion from subsidy removal, which has made petrol and everything else so expensive to choke off the middle class and the poor.

You don't need it because god has richly blessed you.however their are those that this welfare program would be life saver to.....every govt the world over does some form of welfare program for their poor and vulnerable......this is also some stimulus plan to boost the economy because you have to let money flow so as to get people to spend more within.....more like spending your way out if recession.

CodeTemplarr:
Vote-buying phase has begun. As 2027 approaches, They will use this as the reason why HE was VOTED IN again. LOL.

You think tinubu is joking.....we told you,that guy already has his roadmap and obi,atiku and their co travellers in his pocket.....who you come be in the scheme of things

Disenfranchised:
Wey go chop their money and packages and still vote the most competent.

Good luck to you......be assured we await your tears!! Instead of you and Ur people to take time to study and understand this program and see how best your people can benefit here you are with your hating as expected then you will start crying marginalisation when other regions that keyed in start to benefit

guass:
If Tulumbu could be defeated in his house,Lagos State where he became Governor twice, then what makes it impossible to beat him at the national level.
Tulumbu is OTP

We keep telling you people.....the dynamics for 27 are different from 23.....what obi got in 23 were majorly protest votes against the APC and buhari's policies at the time such as the fuel scarcity,currency change, insecurity etc that pit a lot of people in hardship at the time.....those wouldn't be factors come 27 also the euphoria that greeted Obi's run at the time has been drastically deflated as many won't be too keen any longer as they were in 27.

cashmyles:
Tough decisions that impoverished the people . Ani oloriburu.ku leyin people yi seh

What are tough decisions supposed to do.....sweet,easy and comfortable? Smart people already knew it wouldn't be easy but only laggards thought otherwise.

MichaelSokoto:
Let dem continue talking...

dem never fit talk to d wiked emperor, na Obi dem dey talk to.

If I were obi,I would move to the pdp,PDP can offer him what lp or adc can't in 10 years.....it better puts him in good stead for 31.....pdp is still the biggest opposition party in Nigeria whether you like it or not.

LagosOrigin:
Obi defeated tinubu in his Lagos without the help of any governor . He defeated tinubu in governor house alausa , bourdilon and alimosho.

That's a very big statement Obi made in that election. Obi doesn't need the help of anybody to win election . All we ask for is free and fair election and watch Peter Obi defeat tinubu in 2027 before 1pm.

What obi got in Lagos in 23 were protest votes against APC for the harsh economic policies of Buhari at the time.....the dynamics are now very different and trust tinubu to effectively make sure that doesn't happen come 27......he has the power,he has the resources......obi is also being cancelled out in the NC and southern Kaduna where he also got protest votes against Buhari and the APC.....obi cannot take on tinubu alone in 27.....he would be defeated before 10am.....he knows it.

AMINDA:
Really? Same Elrufai? You SWesterners have no idea what you've done to your reputation amongst the rest of Nigerians in terms of building trust. The resignee was Uba Sani's campaign director by the way. Some Northern governors will try to whine Tinubu but don't panic. By 2026, the political tsunami would be so strong that a lot of the current APC governors in the North will either decamp or get swept away.

P.S: Uba Sani cannot deliver his polling unit to Tinubu. This is a fact that is well established.

Tinubu is relying upon his likes to deliver northern votes but here's a video of Uba Sani being booed at his own polling unit during the sham of a local government elections months ago. Uba Sani is not on ground.

Yar PR kawai. This was Uba Sani being booed when he arrived to cast vote. The security couldn't intimidate the crowd 👍 https://t.co/U3BHahSK0V pic.twitter.com/OiIukXPm8o

You pitched with GEJ in 15,I failed,atiku in 19,u still failed,obi in 23 failed yet again.....here you are now forming to be a top notch analyst when all your political allegiance have all failed.....27 won't be any different!! Braze up for premium tears.

Tinubu's campaign director lalong resigned from his ministerial post and there was no fuzz about that.....why should this be a big deal.

hedonido:
You fools like talking rubbish. What is the difference between Abuja and FCT?

If there's a surge in population in Mararaba, or even as far as Suleja, it is all because people are drawn to the capital city of Nigeria. If they can't afford to reside in the main city, they will reside in the suburbs and surrounding areas. Whatever economic and social benefits/consequences accrue to the FCT, trickles down to every corner of the greater Abuja and even neighboring states like Nasarawa and Niger State.

Same applied to Lagos!

So this disingenuous and vexatious attempt to differentiate Lagos the capital of Nigeria and Lagos the non-capital of Nigeria is quite stupid.

Calabar,akwa ibom,onne even Koko in delta all have deeper sea port than Lagos..... why didn't the colonialist choose those places.....it's simple,Lagos better situated and closer to Europe than the other places,also Lagos was already cosmopolitan before the British came and was far better suited for commerce than the other places and lastly the Yoruba people if Lagos are still by far the most accommodating people in Nigeria that's why you still find Lagos still thriving ahead of others.....Lagos is the only place that you come in and melt in almost immediately regardless of your tribe....even Abuja doesn't feel same.

Christistruth03:
If you use Lagos Island alone it will actually be 0.24 % of Lagos State Land Mass

If you add Ebute Metta and Yaba that can Bring it up to 0.30 %

But the Problem is that those Lands were only Leased by the British Government after they ran out of Space on Lagos
Island and the Lease agreement has already expired without being renewed that means that anything outside of the
Lagos Island is Technically Western Region Territory
Even the Leasehold agreement that the British had with the Onikoyi has Also run out but we
still included it as part of the Lagos Island the Capital


Originally Lagos the Capital ended at Apongbon Bridge on Lagos Island

Lagos Island is 9.26 sq km while Lagos State is 3,577 Sq km

Mushin was part of western region to the west,fadeyi to the north East even apapa used to be part of the western region.

Lukuluku69:
Depends on where you are at. I still saw them Searching Phones and bags on Badagry Expressway yesterday at Agboju-Alakija axis. While at it, they asked guys to disembark from Bikes too and subject them to Searches.

This I saw with my own eyes.

Bags yes,but phones no!!

Meeezzzy:
You did the right thing bro, FRSC are so corrupt and unprofessional, what amaze me is that they don't even know how to do their jobs, me now I use my official ID to avoid unnecessary argument and waste of time from the so called FRSC dumb officers, but mind you they still have a lot of Good officers among them. I will not even talk about VIO those ones are the real Yahoo boiz.

.those ones deserve correct beating!! People who can't afford car tyre or buy cars their whole life will be telling car owners how to use their cars....their lack of common sense don't make them realise how much they disrupt the productivity of many private people..... instead of just issuing tickets for any offence and tell you to go,they will insist on wrecking your whole day.

Lukuluku69:
I hope they will comply. I know they won't. To them fellow Nigerians are just ATM Machine.

Even where there is a Clear Cut Policy Statement, they won't comply. How many Times have we heard this from the Police IG about Searching Passerby? Phones? Luggage and bags? Have they stopped? Will they stop?

Police doesn't search phones anymore it's been a long time I saw that.

spencekat:
Great judgement. This will surely drum sanity into FRSC. Let the case get to SC for the final nailing on FRSC's coffin.

They should have complaints units that are effective just as the police......many if them deserve to be reported.
