Atiku is just clearly working for tinubu out of the 17 Southern states Atiku won't win a single one this time around without pdp governors backing his disgrace would be worst this time around.

He is just fooling himself

Atiku already has his plans with makinde as vp,he believes makinde will weaken tinubu's SW hold which is a fallacy and obi can decamp and stop tinubu from getting all southern votes thereby reducing tinubu's total votes in the south while he goes to clear the north which is also a pipe dream.

Igbo agenda,no one can tell me otherwise because thats what this looks like,same people showed up at amaechi's house painted in ethnic colouration and geo political sentiments.......look at all those in that pic,do you see any northerner or yoruba in there,... when tinubu was running around in the run up to 23,was it his tribes men he was carrying all around,when buhari was doing his in 15 was it only hausa fulanis he was moving around with,is obi consulting and negotiating to be president of biafra........I wonder why he keeps making these baby mistakes that will always be dysfunctional to his ambition.

If it aggravates you that people are calling on a president to do the job he sought for and was elected to do then something is basically wrong with you. Even in your own job, you get called out for doing a bad job not to now mention a position of public trust.
It was Tinubu who declared a State of Emergency in food security. Tell me what he has done to enhance food security since he announced it. Instead he has allowed food import to push down the price of food which negates the food security he declared
If I remember correctly, it is the fg that's doing white elephant projects like Lagos-Calabar and Sokoto-Badagry when majority of federal roads are an eyesore. The same FG has NPHCDA which is supposed to cater for primary healthcare. No one is even aware of the existence of the agency!
Same FG is using over a trillion to rehabilitate an airport terminal as well. So you see that the states are actually taking a cue from the FG. If the FG sits up and become alive to its duties, the states will have no choice but to sit up as well The head is the most important part of the human body

Isn't the airport runway worth it? You call that a white elephant project? Its obvious you have a puerile narrative pinned to your forehead and asked to run along with it like a headless chicken.

Would anyone blame your boss if you always get to work late,if your productivity is lower than the resources being given to you? The 2 busiest airports in west africa are in Nigeria MMA with about 6.5m passengers annually and NAIA Abuja with about 6m,that combined is more than the population of many states in Nigeria,each has only one runway to serve international flights which is grossly inadequate for the amount if traffic it handles......you even had to lie a trillion is being spent on the airport rehabilitation project just to push your vile propaganda.

And so what if the NPHCDA exists,its just a parastatal of federal govt whose sole purpose isnt to build PHCs in every ward in Nigeria but to set guidelines, supervise and allocate resources at the federal level to the states,the fg will assist any state that has a viable agenda in primary healthcare delivery.

You equally unobjectively criticised 2 major highway projects that are set to repurpose our economic development, the coastal road and the the sokoto badagry corridor.......a road that can allow you do a round trip lagos to PH in 24 hrs,a road that can allow you work in lagos and live in Ondo.They both would allow industries and new towns spring up into other states and help decongest lagos. You call white elephant,I use the coastal road daily and I know how much it has helped my business in quicker turn around time and cheaper energy cost,I can see how much development is springing up along the lagos-epe stretch and people already considering ondo state like its just next door and you are oblivious of the fact this will do to our economy......no one tell you not to criticise tinubu but we will appreciate if its done objectively without bias,tainted with vile political rhetoric and jaundiced opinions based on sentiments......I support tinubu but I have equally criticised him on things I feel he isn't doing right.

Why she come resemble Nancy like this.....only the head isn't as round.

The BBC has since lost its credibility. Especially BBC Africa. If you want to get the real and correct news coming from Mali, go on X and search for indigenous accounts, read the news and watch real videos, not depending on all these paid writers.

Russia should come out and defend themselves!!

FG owns all forest reserves in all states
Besides, FG can acquire land in overriding public interest and the state is bound to surrender it
Must importantly, you're still falling to get the main issue. The issue is food preservation and storage not planting and harvesting as you erroneously keep knocking.
Anyone who knows anything about farming will know that it is virtually impossible to say you'll farm yam all year round at same rate.
What is needed is a Joseph to store in times of excess. The FG should lead in strategic food reserve not push it to the states to farm, harvest and still store. You're simply asking for the FG to be useless

I haven't gone out of scope in anyway and I was only inferring that storage as a vital component in the agric value chain can also be built and managed by the sub nationals,its not a big deal in anyway......it aggravates me immensely when Nigerians keep calling tinubu for every problem forgetting there are other levels of govt that should be equally responsible for the lacuna we are in as a nation.......which state of the 36 have been able to provide standard PHCs in their domain,non......as basic as primary education is,no state can lay claim to achieving MDG in that regard but everyone will still blame tinubu for that.....wasting scarce resources on purposeless airports and grand conference centers that adds nothing to the livelihoods of their citizens when they cant even provide the basics......but nah tinubu,tinubu,tinubu!!

On forest reserves.....it isn't meant for agriculture!you really need to understand that.

What sort of useless propaganda is this? What sort of lies upon lies upon lies are these? Is it the same kidal that the residents were dragging the mutilated and battarred bodies of FLA and JNIM fighters on the streets?
Is it the same Gao that so many FLA and JNIM fighters were decimated and their scattered bodies displayed on the streets?
BBC has joined in the propagation of falsehood concerning the fighting in Mali.

The news was reported by BBC,thats quite a reputable news source if i must say......typical of the Russians,same thing they did to al assad of Syria,living the man high and dry when he needed them most.

LagosOrigin:
Mumu man

Now I see why Nasir El rufai dealt seriously with this failure politician by making sure he never returns to the Senate to spew his usual rubbish.

Is IsaacFayose Igbo?

The massive crowd that received Peter Obi in opposition summit in Ibadan, are they Igbos?

Is Rauf Aregbesola that helped Peter Obi win the whole of alimosho local government in Lagos in 2023 election Igbo?

Is Chief Olusegun obasanjo Igbo?

Thank you very much for acknowledging the fact that non ignos particularly yorubas really do support obi,how many of their tribes men have you seen insulting, harassing or cursing any of them for making their political choices, juxtapose that with obi's tribesmen and how they harass,insulting and curse anyone supporting tinubu?

I support tinubu but I must say that shehu scanning is wrong on this.

Federal govt owns lands in every state of the Federation
Go back to school and learn
Where did you get your own idea that the FG is only to make policies? Where did you learn your own govt that states are implementing units for federal policies?
That the Federal govt is corrupt and inefficient does not mean the state should take over its responsibilities since even the state can be corrupt or is more corrupt in most cases.
All of Nigeria's food reserve are with the FG. If the FG has failed to manage our reserves you can't blame to state for that
Besides, do you know the kind of capital required to research into strategic storage and build it? How many states can afford it? Other countries are self-sufficient in food without crying to sub-nationals. Only zombies reason that way

Where is the fg land in your state, show us?,the LGs, farmer co operatives and settlements are all under which level of govt,who supervises them?

It's enough to cast aspersions on what you arent knowledgeable about or deliberately to push your anti tinibu narrative......the fg since buhari as proposed cattle colonies to be built and funded by it,how many states have responded,if the fg had the land why them do tbey need the approval of the states or their buy in.

The fg can only make policies and make specialised interventions but the bulk of the heavy lifting is by the su nationals themselves.....fg protected farmers by banning rice importation,how many states aside maybe lagos and kebbi did anything meaningful with that policy......how much has has imo state with vast oil palm resources invested in scaling up production to tap from the commodity as a revenue source........show us the fg land in your state.

Kukutente23:
Oh suddenly the gov is now responsible for food security?
But Tinubu did not blink twice before removing a gov from seat. That shows that he sees his office and powers as superior to that of a gov so only a dummy will be asking those with lesser powers to take over the responsibilities of a higher power
This nonsense of shifting presidential responsibilities to govs started under APC with their data boys and it's now getting ridiculous

Show me anywhere in Nigeria the federal govt owns any land......where are the lands domiciled?

What exactly are the responsibilities of a gov or is it only going to Abuja at month end to receive allocations and pay salaries?

Agric is on the concurrent list and all the fg can do is make policies while its the sub nationals that can engage in the physical part......the fg has lost billions to trillions of naira to agric initiatives such as anchor borrowers,Bank of agric,Research etc with nothing to show for it.....there is no way we can be self sufficient in food if the sub nationals themselves arent ambitious enough in that regard.

So he should give them tbe education free or allow their parents continue to suffer looking for school fees for their children. Despite tertiary education still being cheap in Nigeria many parents still can't afford it......mow those funds are being freedom up for those families to do other things while payment can be deferred to ease the economic burden on them.......you are here condemning such laudable policy just because its tinubu bringing it but forget the students already benefitting and those in the future.

yinkus6750:
You tried and gave your best to the country.
Posterity will remember you.
Atiku that you put in charge of privatisation messed up so many of them.
Thank God for Dangote refinery, we would have been buying petrol at 4-5,000/ litre by now.
Corruption killed NNPC, spending money on it is like a drain pipe. Better to scrap them and give more licenses for private refineries.

Same yar adua they are praising for being the best president for reducing fuel prices and I creasing subsidy......if that was a sensible move why was is successor screaming that subsidy had to go.

New007:
Why's he angry? These are the gifts his foolish party decided was best for the women of Kano, which suggests that they have old, worn out pants at home. Rubbish.

Dude you read or follow up the story at all,it wasn't anything related to empowerment but a political banter against the govs opponents.....the extent overzealous supporters can go can sometimes be downright ludicrous.

May God deliver you from the spirit of suffering
So you're happy that yam is out of your reach DND001 you can only afford potato
Same way you were in another thread telling people to come and learn how to manage suffering
Bro this one no be life you dey live so

So tinubu should come and plant yams for you,other food prices are coming down but tou insist its yam you want,no one is stopping you.

OredoPikin:
u guys want to monopolize hate again
u did it in 2015 and successfully use hate and bitter politics to remove PDP and GEJ
now u dont want others to do same to u
aha
una hypocrisy is out of this world.
Make campaign start first. Tinubu will see hate and we cry that karma is actually real

And that same GEJ who you claim suffered our hate is now in cahoots with us and our political interests align while you us supposed lovers have bitten the dust, who is being vindicated now?

Kukutente23:
Lol
So how come Nigeria has the lowest life expectancy rate in the world and the West with their GMO have the highest
Stop thinking like a cave man
Tell your political god to build storage plants so yam can be available all year round
That's what serious govts do not give excuse for incompetence

Your state govts should do that too because they are the closest to the farmers,your state can equally grow and store enough yams and sell to the rest of us.....whats your gov doing.

Biggeststar01:
He also told us he would give us steady electricity before 4 years. He said he would build one refinery every two years if elected. He said he would conscript 50 million youths into the army and feed them with corn, beans and cassava. Need I go on?

I still mentioned more things he has done than he hasn't.....if you have more, I equally do too.

OredoPikin:
What u did to GEJ was love politics abi🤣🤣
Una never see half of wetin una do to GEJ
Make campaign start first😂
U go see hate politics and u won't even see mouth to talk
Whatever u did to GEJ, u will get in full
Make campaign start

I am glad to inform you that you can go ahead with yot plans,keep insulting, keep denigrating your opponents,you are highly welcome.....we pretty much appreciate the fact that the reason obi will never be president is obidients themselves.

Those birds are exotic and very rare,I wonder why Nigeria hasn't adapted that specie for mass production.

Engrduke:
Wahala promax.

I don't believe in this opposition group again. The opposition gladiators are already engaged in in-house attacks and name calling from different camps. Social media attacks from followers is another case. Yet, the real challenge has not arrived.

You want to involve a group in a coalition but failed to appeal to dissenting camps?

May God help Nigeria.

If you are just realising this and acknowledging these bunch of jokers cant unseat tinubu then I join you in thanking God for opening your eyes and taking you out if delusion.

UkoAnnang:


Wetin be Accord party

Who sabi Accord party?



Only Mr Peter Obi is bigger than Accord party and APC put together


Peter Obi himself is a party

That accord party will soon get a gov by August,,a big achievement adc has never had.

OredoPikin:
Yet
You can't stop talking about him on a daily basis

Yes I won't stop talking about him because he brought the scourge of delinquent ideologues in the name of obidients upon us with their rancorous,disruptive,hate filled politics.

Sonofgod1990:
Fuel rise una no complain

Na yam of all people una think say e no go riseee

Tulumbu is working to make Nigeria better for yarimo and helanus

You people should learn how to cut cost. Must you people eat yam? You people should look for alternatives

How many yams have you planted to make Nigeria food sufficient even in your back yard how many?

You people just blame senselessly, everyone knows nigerian food economy is dynamic and keeps fluctuating due to our seasonal nature of farming,everyone atleast with a brain,excluding your ilk of course knows we are going out of yam season and prices would naturally go up this period till October when we will be back in harvest season and prices drop again.

If you want cheap food where you will be able to buy food for dirt cheap,you must be ready to switch to GMO foods as they have abroad and be ready to die from the side effects.....we majorly consume organic foods here in Nigeria and its a blessing to us and cheap too.....organic food abroad is usually expensive too.

Nah by force to chop yam.....i can live without yam for a whole year.......potatoes is an alternative and taste really good as pottage.

Bukola94:
This afternoon I chop donkunu #200, a kind of meal that is made of maize, pepper and I kind of fried soup, raw onions and #500 fish

Can never taste that thing in 10 life times,seen it severally in Nigeria, Ghana and Togo,s**t feels ,smells and looks same but I like the fish sha.

LocalBuka:
What's the best cheap meal you've had recently?

So last week I was hungry, low on cash, and too tired to think too hard about where to eat. I just wanted something real, something filling, and I did not want to spend a fortune.

I ended up at this small spot I had walked past a hundred times but never entered. Ordered a plate of jollof rice and fried plantain. Nothing fancy. Less than 2k.

That plate nearly brought tears to my eyes.
I don't know if it was the hunger or the cook, but it was genuinely one of the best meals I had eaten in a long time.

Better than some restaurant meals I have paid four times the price for. It reminded me that sometimes good food does not require a big budget. It just requires knowing where to go.

And that's what I want to know from you people.
Where have you eaten recently that was cheap but hit differently?

A buka, a roadside spot, a mall food court, anywhere. What did you order and how much did you spend?

Let's build a list in the comments because honestly, we all need this information.

I had about the best smoky jollof rice this morning @ OPIC estate isheri,lagos,just before channels television hq.....menh, it was the tastiest jollot and the funny thing was that the taste was very peculiar, a feeling like i hadn't ever had jollof in my life.

Went for a business run very early,left home like 5 am and was done by 10 am,was famished and just saw this little corner shop with this glass shelves restaurants use,omoh!! I was blown away and the most enjoyable part was that it was just 500 naira a portion, had 2 and had to ask for extra one with fried fish,total bill was just 2k./$1.40......still beats me hollow how some people will fork out over 200k for a regular nigerian meal,I just dont get it.

For obidients who hunger wants to kill,you can find cheap quality meals there

I really wish ambode would get the ticket,he is competent,experienced and less dramatic but I guess he isn't a good party man and the powers that be seem not to trust him enough not to avenge is sack as gov in 19.

Hamzat can wait till 31 after ambode's 2nd term if not anything but for equity to lagos east.

Jakande west
Otedola east
Tinubu west**
Fashola central**
Ambode east*
Sanwo-olu central**
Hamzat west

One star represents terms completed.

Obi brought all this see finish on himself,is desperation has further diminished is hard earned goodwill......he is now seen as an unprincipled snakesoil man all for his personal agenda.

A man that had it all going for himself politically,he was on the ascendancy but went to lay with the pigs of our polity,the hyenas and jackals of our commonwealth, now he has been rubbed In the mud and its to late to get a wash......a man that atiku,el rufai and co should have been begging to join his party.

I have said same thing repeatedly, ariku doesn't strike me as a smart politician.....after his mistakes 03,07,he could have just remained with tinubu,if he had buhari wouldn't have happened in 15,atiku would have been the most suitable to be used against GEJ in 15 and tinubu would have still had his turn by 23.

His condescending attitude and not wanting to play behind anyone but be boss himself is his greatest undoing,buhari played tinubu that way to get what he wanted but atiku wants to sit at the head of the table at all times, thats why I even distrust obi more right now for not seeing this man for what he is,now he is learning the hard way.
