'Estimated'/'planned'/'projected' are usually not the same as 'actual'...

NRS has already declared over N20tr collections H1 26 already,so what are you yapping on all about,juxtapose this with what was being quoted by WB......this is just tax collections alone.

PlasmaTV:
Isn't Lagos tired of APC's monarchy?

When will anambra be tired of apga's fiefdom

This is the problem with Data boiz, You are quoting a Budget projection

1st, We are still struggling with 2025 budget and i remember wale edun even drbunk Tinubu claim we made targeted revenue

Now listen, that govt project 36trn revenue in a budge does not mean it is guarantee to make 336trn, it may or may not happen

so far from budget performance nothing suggests we are even meeting our projection, So you can't play selective with world bank remark; you pick the one they lauded the Tinubu reform then discredit the one that unfavours the govt

The World Bank is in a perfect position to give an assessment report on Nigeria's debts

🤣🤣🤣 He said GEJ borrowed more than Tinubu ...

in 2023 Tinubu inherited 87.4trn, and under Tinubu excessive borrow the debt rose to 166.789 trillion as of mid 2026 ooo! he is not done yet ..Please do the maths naw compare to jonathan that left 58%, increase in debt ( 9.8trn )

Clutching at straws just to look sensible but you are even doing a bad job at that.......our recurrent expenditures side of evry budget in Nigeria, performs 100% ,iys only capital that lags and debt servicing falls under recurrent.

The buhari added $40b while tinubu os still hovering around a quarter of tbat already half way in his 2 terms......the simple reason he has borrowed less is because he isnt paying subsidies and he isn't wantonly defending the naira as buhari did......tinubu instead is building the most kms of road since our oil boom of the 70s,Nelfund,increased Faac allocation to subnationals,he has increased minimum wage by more than 100%,your non oil exports earnings has increased because your goods are now more competitive,you FPI is one of the best performing in the world right now and all these are dieing to the pragmatic policies of PBAT while still borrowing far less than the previous 2 givts before him.

Just live ur live and learn from ur own mistakes.

shadyLP:
Go to Arise TV or channels TV to defend your statement! Make them roast you till you start stammering
Tata boys defending their druggy out of tribalism

Your jaundiced narrative blowing up right in your face and you have nothing but this inept reasoning as cover......what a joke!!

Sheuns:
Buhari govt paid subsidies for 8 years, witnessed COVID 19 crisis, built some infrastructure.

What exactly is this one doing after removing subsidies and still borrowing more

For your information buhari added $40b to our debt stock over his 8yrs tenure,yar adua/gej added over $60 within same period.....tinubu has only done about 1/5th of what gej did.

Quit the wolf cry with ur jaundiced narrative.

Debt servicing provision in the 26 budget is N15tr......the figure quoted there is just about half of the provision whic covers half of 2026.

The total amount for debt servicing isnt up to half of estimated revenue for 2026 at N36tr.........maybe WB is referring to a subset of our revenue, oil or non oil.

To all the indolent opposition buffoons tinubu didn't borrow all the debt your country is owing......gej took us back to over $60b from $3.6b obj left us,buhari took us to $108b.......tinubu took us to $120.9b as at H1 26.

Gej between december 2012 and March 2015 already borrowed more than tinubu has in 4 almost 4 years.....about $20b.

Arguing with a fool is the most foolish thing to do in this life......peace!!

1000angstroms:
Shatap, you chronic gaslighters, a bag of rice was less than 20k during GEJ, wasn't it same tilumbu thatlwashed buhari for gullible Nigerians? Was he not the one with his mouth said with tinumbu, 1 naira will be 1 dollar, that in 6 months, we will have constant light? That if they remove subsidy that enough money will be saved, please where are all the money, even the ones he is borrowing?
Why are you people this evil, tilumbu said with His mouth that if he doesn't fix light, No one should vote him for 2nd tenure, he only made electricity expensive, APC from Buhari destroyed Nigeria, tilumbu, buried it.
Let APC go and rest lets try other people, they hwve tried their best, it is Now understandable that APC is clueless.

shox:
you see that 19800 under gej, you go fit carry flight, Lagos to Abuja
But since reduced purchasing power = reduced functioning brain cells. You no fit understand

But artificially keeping the naira low against the usd at $1b monthly......the crashing of our gdp started from that era......reduced investments in oil and gas sector,with trillions squadered on subsidies.......you for carry flight but state civil servants were being owed salaries.

Edoreborn:
I can remember when last i wore trousers,,me and my okrika shot all d way...Me that used to av up to 30 something jeans before... i can't afford one again...Haaa...Bola i no go swear for u ooo,,but law of nature go judge u..

Why aren't you wearing rags to prove your point.......

LagosOrigin:
Tinubu has destroyed this country beyond repair

Just last week, I spent 1.1 million naira on things that 250k would have bought if Satan didn't give Nigeria tinubu

How many people had that 250k under obj,gej and buhari.......minimum wage was 30k and a 50kg bag of rice was 32k,so what are you yapping on about.

How much garments and apparrels do you produce in ur own country?

Tell us the job he is doing and lets see how productive he is to the nigerian economy......tou did be shocked he is a car dealer or clearing agent or property agent.

79% of our prospective farmers and rural dwellers are here wasting away in the cities riding okada and keke......many LGAS dont hen have a single industries and you expect you expect prosperity to fall from heaven.

Hope you didn't miss out obi crying about how his party is being attacked in his own backyard in enugu......waiting for atiku supporters in bayelsa.......let's all be mad together!!

AustineE1:
The muslim op is more concerned with what happens in the catholic church that has been in existence for 2000yrs.
Anyway after governor Alia's governorship he can choose to be a lay member of the church or become an imam if he so wish.
According to the church,his suspension stands!He can't disgrace the church in his unbridled quest for power while acting like the usual half baked APC thug like politicians.
A new Nigeria is possible!

Is Alia the first clergy to hold political office in Nigeria, even from same Catholic faith,we had Gov Rufus Ada George from same Benue state amd he had similar issues during his time,also jolly Nyame of taraba state was also ofnthe clergy.

Its a church matter we all agree and the church as every right to sanction any part of ot as it deems fit......however cardinal Onaiyekan on the other hand has so blurred the sanctity that separates the murky waters of politics from the pulpit........his supposed elder statesman status and has been badly tainted to making it impossible to portray him as he is claiming to be.

Kukutente23:
This is the funniest comment ever!
Objective, non-partisan, in same comment with you?
You're jokes are too much

Something obidients can never posess in an entire lifetime.......my friend is running for LSHA in 27 under ADC,he already has my vote......my other friend ran for Councillorship under LP in the last LG elections and he also had my vote.......just yesterday I was seating with NDC mobilisers and we are all cool with each other........you and ur ilk can never be found in such a room.

AMINDA:
What does control mean? Who controlled Lagos when Obi handed his behind to him on a plate in 2023 despite the voter suppression and intimidation tactics? What about Ebonyi, Imo, Cross Rivers, and several other APC states whose governors couldn't deliver Tinubu? Tinubu is even more unpopular now than he was then. Keep putting your fate in governors and expecting them to sell alcohol in the middle of Mecca.

Is that what you are still hoping on to repeat itself and defeat Tinubu in 27,its now as clear as day hiw inept ur reasoning is about electioneering in nigeria......buhari never won any state in the South prior 15,never even got 40% anywhere there......obj never won any SW state in 99 but became unassailable in 03.

Tinubu lost lagos by less than 1%,same for osun,sokoto and Benue but he will certainly win all those states as it stands.......your opposition doesn't have what it takes to stop him in 27 except you want to keep deluding urself.

Kukutente23:
You wanted to form independent-minded
Now one of your Ogas don catch you
I pray you don't get sacked for this

I bear no allegiance to anyone and don't give a rats arse what even tinubu himself thinks about my my comment......I am only an objective nin partisan nigerian.

Its a purposeless effort that will achieve nothing......you couldn't effectively manage subsidy regime which falls directly under the ambit of the govt and corruption was allowed to swallow it up,how then do tou want to monitor who gets the petrol and at what price,more confusing is how you diffrentuate commercial vehicles from private.

So many commercial vehicles have benefitted from CNG interventions with most even free but there isn't any single one of them reducing fares to the masses......the capital for the CNG intervention gone,the hopes of the common man in alleviating cost of transportation all gone,now this.

What happens when prices go down to a thousand naira and you are telling NNPCL to charge 1,350 so as to under recover what ever cost on this misguided policy,who would buy.

The CNG initiative should have been made more effective, massive penetration drive across the entire country,their are even mobile units and cascades that can make dispensing from trucks directly to end users possible,if cng were to go round the country all the noise about high petrol cost would have been long gone.

Kukutente23:
I was reading patiently through the thread hoping to see the likes of Lithiumite Parachoko and HacheNoire on this thread, folks like them who have been defending subsidy removal for the past 3 years are who I expect to see on this thread screaming their lungs out that the govt is making a terrible mistake
But I guess they're yet to get updates from their WhatsApp group to know the spin to put on this latest developmenta

Hope you have now seen my comment you have been longing to see.......we do not play hypocrisy here unl8ke you obidients and not that you lot has any better argument which makes your inferences a non starter in the first place.

chinedu234:
Nigeria bureau of statistics have been providing a false narrative on the inflation trend in Nigeria. Their narrative may be due to ignorance or obvious mischief. I will use several real product situations to showcase their fallse narrative in this series. Today I will be looking at a pack of a popular brand of bubble gum that sold at about #800/pack before the subsidy gone misyearn. This pack of bubble gum rose up to #4,000/pack (about 400% increase) thereafter . At that point I stopped buying it. Months down the line, the price of this same bubble gum pack came down to about #2,880. This is the point at which NBS will record a downward slide in Inflation. However, let us look at what really happened. On purchase of this current pack, I discovered that the bubble gum itself was about half the size of the previous ones before the subsidy gone statement. In other words, if this half size gum was available before 'subsidy gone' it could have been sold for about #400/pack. This means that a #400 product pre subsidy gone is now #2,880. This indicates an actual inflation of about 620%. But if we go by NBS method which will obviously take the two products as same, inflation would have come down by 28%. This is how false narrative is provided on Nigeria's economy. I want people to digest this as we are set to delve into other products in the coming series. Thank you.

You don't use just a singular product to judge inflation indices......inflation truely grew to about 38% but has since slowed by half,which is something similar to your own very analogy.

Bayo Onanuga
President Tinubu's SA on Information & Strategy

I totally disagree with this policy by tinubu......it throws him off as an inconsistent person......also the details of the policy are shrouded in so much obscurity.

This is a very wrong move by tinubu,I wonder the kind of advisers he has that conjured this inherently dysfunctional policy......at what cost ? What will nigerians have to jettison as opportunity cost......whats the scope?

Tinubu really needs to up his game and stick to his neo liberal disposition.......he has really disappointed on this.

Rubbish journalism........no verifiable names,no proof of payment......iq deficient journalism.

ImmaculateJOE:
I didn't ascribe Lagos or any other southern states bar Rivers because of Ameachi, to Atiku.
For Kano, Atiku is the leading candidate there.

Atiku leading candidate in kano and amaechi has rivers.......you belong in tbe jokes section.

ImmaculateJOE:
Using the 2023 general elections results, defections, stance on Subsidy, political bigwigs, economic reality, religious and tribal sentiments. These are my projections for the 2027 general elections results for the 3 leading candidates.

NDC/OBI
Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, Imo, Edo, Cross River, Delta, Bayelsa, Nassarawa and Plateau States.

ADC/ATIKU
Adamawa, Bauchi, Gombe, Yobe, Kaduna, Kastina, Kebbi, Jigawa,Sokoto and Zamfara States

APC/TINIBU
Ekiti, Ogun, Ondo, Osun, Oyo, Kogi, Kwara, Niger and Akwa Ibom States.

APM/Seyi Mankinde will dent a big blow to APC/Tinibu in Oyo State because he has National assembly elections to win for his loyalists.

Battle grounds.
FCT: NDC & APC
Benue: NDC &. APC
Borno: ADC & APC
Taraba: ADC/APC
Kano: NDC & ADC & APC
Rivers: NDC & ADC & APC
Lagos: NDC & APC



Please, no insults, argue objectively.

ADC got nothing on kano,rivers,lagos and any southern state.

Detest that game like no 2mao.......i loathe at those who form guru by claiming mastery of it like its some genius work......nothing ingenious about it......no iq quotient whats so ever.

Same for what.....already thought my kids to hate them too.

Premium Times wan kill Kila professorship career. Dem bin try Peter Obi but him integrity too choke.

Your obi never account for the 2.1b wey he lie say him keep for FBN,ANSG say nothing like that bank sef confirm am,but ur self righteous obi hasn't come to explain himself.

Your application submission link for operators doesn't work,tried severally.

Tareq1105:
But we watched some military personnel on tik tok social media complaining about their welfare. So, if he's changed their lives they should be able to say it through the same channel.

2 wrongs never make a right.........never ever in the history mankind.

This is what hope is scared of and wike is talking and doing.....noh be cho cho cho......obidients!!.tunubu 25% is guaranteed in all the 5 SE states......where atiku wan see 5% for south.

Isn't this wrong.....for a military personality to openly cone out and campaign for any politician.....I support PBAT but acts like this by our military should never be encouraged.

This is pure dereliction of duty and appropriate sanctions should be applied.

PBAT till 31!!

Why is the road so narrow and what happened to the concrete road umahi built to afipko as gov?
