Loans that were majorly looted.
This government has awarded road projects worth 58 trillion naira. They have funded less than 5% of that. Till date, this government has not provided the answers to honourable Mascot's questions on what happened to 1.5 billion dollars of borrowed funds. The minister of finance could not answer and neither could the CBN.
You have removed subsidies but are still borrowing heavily. Meanwhile, the senate president of your party is heavily surpressing inquiries into how 210 trillion naira is missing from the coffers of the NNPC.

Has any if the projects been abandoned? Work is going on massively and contractors are paid in tranches.

That you awarded projects of 100k does not mean you have to pay all the money you continue to pay as the project proceeds.

On the rubish about 210Trillion, it is only babies like you that cannot analyse a simple statement that is running with that. How could a man whose total budget in the 6 years he was in charge of NNPC is just around 30 trillion naira, now steal 210 trillion, will he manufacture the money from the air.

I doubt if the total budget of Nigeria for the whole period was even up to that amount.

My friend, take the time to audit the country's internally generated revenue, tax receipts, and borrowed funds, then compare them with the level of development being celebrated. The disparity will be glaring. Until then, it would be better to rely on facts and objective analysis rather than repeatedly making claims that do not align with reality.

On the contrary the development is surprising..given the scarcity of resources we shouldnt be seeing projects like this. Kudos to BAT

Zonefree:
Same sentence should be extended to the actual terrorists rather than the 'rehabilitation and reintegration' program.

You guys just keep showing your ignorance and spreading misinformation.

Yeah, some Boko Haram members have been rehabilitated, mostly lower-ranked ones with little proof they killed anyone. A lot of them were forced to join the group; many are victims themselves.

Many of them also have been killed. Many have been prosecuted and sentenced to death or prison.

The way you guys put it, it's like the government does nothing about them, which isn't true.

There has been many incoherent and meaningless comparison posts from This globe posted on this forum.

Are you trying to tell us anything? the impression you are creating with this post is that you are mentally unstable, I hope that I am wrong, and that you are just a 10 years old boy, borrowing his uncles phone to post trash.

Who killed Dele Giwa?
Who killed Funsho Williams?

The 1993 election was supposed to be our moment of true national unity. Look at those numbers. Abiola did not just win; he built a coalition that bridged the divide between the North Central and the South West. For a brief, intoxicating moment, it felt as though we had finally outgrown the regionalism that keeps us fragmented. But in this country, such optimism is often a dangerous provocation to the powers that prefer the status quo.

Meanwhile, how is Babangida doing today?

The once Almighty ruler who thought the world revolves around his pencil. The Minna archangel!

It makes me remember some great men alike who were silenced rather than good governance see the light.


The shadows that hang over our political history are long and dark. The brutal silencing of Dele Giwa in 1986 and the cold, calculated murder of Funsho Williams in 2006 were not merely isolated crimes. They were messages—sharp, violent reminders of what happens when individuals become too prominent or too capable of shifting the national narrative. We dance around these ghosts, but the truth remains locked behind doors that no one in power wants to open.

It makes me wonder if Abacha really stole that much announced. Maybe underrepresented or overrepresented. Or are other corrupt people hiding their own crimes under the umbrella of the late man who cannot defend himself anymore?

Just the same way more are waiting for others to be late then they blame them for everything!

By the way...


Who killed Dele Giwa?
Who killed Funsho Williams?

Let me just answer one of your questions: "How's Babangida doing today?"

He's doing about as well as you'd expect any super rich former head of state with old-age health issues to be doing. He's getting the best medical care for his situation. He lives in his huge mansion in Minna and gets occasional political visitors. You could even say he put Minna on Nigeria's political map. If he were just an average guy, he'd probably be dead.

Basically, he's doing great.

Ofunaofu:
One of the most accurate statements in politics is that voting has consequences. Yet, whenever it is mentioned in discussions about the current administration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu, some people react as though they have been personally attacked.

Of course, the reason is obvious.
The phrase becomes uncomfortable when placed alongside today's realities: economic hardship, persistent insecurity that continues to claim lives, the kidnappings, killings, maiming, deaths, crushing inflation, naira collapse, skyrocketing food prices, a cost-of-living crisis, worsening poverty, business closures and collapse and recurring electricity blackouts that have become the hallmark of the Tinubu regime.

During the elections, supporters proudly claimed victory and insisted their candidate was the best choice. A Master strategist. They mocked those who lost, called them bitter losers, boasted that political lessons would be taught, and celebrated as though they had personally delivered Nigeria's salvation.

But when the consequences of the very policies they supported are criticized, accountability suddenly becomes offensive.

Nobody is saying voters deserve hardship. The point is that political choices have real-world consequences. If you proudly claimed ownership of the victory, don't be surprised when people connect the outcome to the decision that produced it.

Perhaps what angers some people is not the statement itself, but the uncomfortable reminder that the Nigeria many are complaining about today is, in part, the result of the political choices they passionately defended yesterday.

Voting has consequences.

The Tinubu government is simply a live demonstration of that fact.

It is only a fool who believe that there is a politician out there with a magic wand thay will end all problems that will make this kind of statement.

It takes a deep level of arrogancy and disrespect for other people's choices to continue to attribute every ill fortune that befalls them to the political choice they have made.

Oloyede is Somebody that is efficient and proactive but most of his good side has been attenuated or water down by his pro-radical tendencies and I believe the last hijab issue and controversy one of the reason why he was replaced.

Bros Oloyede completed his two terms and left, he was not replaced

You all seems to have forgorten that the APC in rivers worked against Tinubu and for Obi in the last electtion.

Continue to deceive yourself.

That has been you people plan. Fabricate invincible numbers of members during primaries so when you people rig 2027 you'd say but our primary had high turn out.

We sabi you people. This time we ready for unah.

Stay tuned.

Yes we can all see the fake number of people voting..

LOL

Could it be he didn't know this was being recorded?

Or maybe he couldn't care less?

It is quite possible that the candidate has won already and he is just cashing fun.

The numbers turning up for APC primaries are quite impressive though

IGBOPROMISE1:
You obviously think a house of reps member is voted by the entire state and not voters of a particular constituency! What demographic studies or census have you done in Oshodi/Isolo to determine the Yoruba outnumber other ethnicities!? And assuming, without conceding, that were the case, don’t you think it’s possible for him to have gotten votes from Yoruba as well as none-Yoruba voters registered in the constituency!? Or you think all Yoruba despise Ndigbo like you do!?

You're totally missing the point. This guy (an Ibo man) represents a constituency in Lagos, a SW state. He's sending people to South Africa for training with money meant for a constituency project, and 90% of the people on his list are Ibos, like him. Are you saying 90% of the nurses in his constituency are Ibos?

Sam Amadi is an ex-Chairman of NERC & supporter of Peter Obi

What a stupid Question, this was a man who stepped down for MKO, so MKO could achieve his presidential ambition.

He also left his position as governor to become deputy to OBJ.

So it does not make any sense to say he only see Sourtherners as deputies.

TheStoriesOfMan:
That's a hypocritical! Practicing what they don't preach.

9/10 times, a billionaire is not truthful.

Religions actually give a lot... they're like the biggest NGO out there.

My point is, though, that when they preach giving, it encourages their followers to give to the religion itself, so it's good for the religion to spread those messages.

Giving is good for a bunch of reasons, but I don't think it's directly proportional to what you get back.

Giving just because you want something in return is pretty self-serving.

kerry57:
Elon musk is stupendously rich and keeps accumulating wealth. Nice one. Giving is directly proportional to receiving, you don't have to believe it. It's a law of KAMA that is why it is preached in all religions.

Realy? So who did Elon musk give to, to have received so much.

Has it occured to you that preaching giving benefits religion?

Is he saying he is going to increase minimum wage to 170k if he wins?, let him be clear, we are not intrested in his analysis , he should tell us what he will do differently .

Any smart economist will know that massive wage increase will lead to unprecedented inflation, worse than what we are experiencing now.

Wages should go up in a gradual manner, so the economy can absorb it.

Fareed Sanchi

It is poasible that he did, bit the budget could not cover it and now they are looking at it again.

I know he was trying to raise 500 billion through treasiry bill as the first payment towards amount owed.

In the year 2017, I told a guy to help me buy weed so I can dry it and mix it with my hair cream for sheen and growth. he brought it in the night and I kept it till the next day then I sun dried it and squeezed it till it was in powder form, then this curiosity of how I will behave if I'm high on weed just came upon me, so I called my younger brother to come have a pinch with me, he told me not to try it because he knows I'm allergic to some drugs ( malaria drugs and the likes). But I insisted, so he took a pinch with me and we just laughed and said to ourselves " nothing go happen jare". he went out to meet some of his guys while I stayed home alone because my crush promised to come over. maybe after an hour or so (because I lost track of time), she came and sat close to me, I just kept smiling and didn't say a word, she was smiling too and was laying down a seductive body language which I didn't respond too because she looked like she was wearing an ape mask. she got comfortable to the extent that she ran her hands through my laps but I wasn't feeling it at all, I was sky high. she got angry and left, I escorted her outside, that was when the problem started. as she was going i just stood back and watch her, it was as if she became an ant, she was very small in my eyes, it was that time I realized the weed had started working. I struggled to get back inside and went back to my room. I locked the door and opened it again, I did that for like 5 times and I stopped. then a voice whispered to me * go dance nau * but I declined. the voice came again and said I should pull out the burglary proof of my window I still declined. my younger brother came back home but he wasn't affected at all. the same voice told me to start crying but I declined. I was served garri by my brother, I rushed it like a rabbid werewolf then slept. I woke up and something changed in my life. since that day my ear started working more than it should, I could hear people talking clearly from meters away.




second experience
2019 November
I got weed from my home town when we went for my grandma's burial.south south weed.
i left it in my bag in school, 2nd semester exam started, and there was this particular course I haven't read at all. on the night before the course I remembered watching a video online that said weed helps to remember things. quickly I went to my bag and brought out the weed, I took a pinch, this time smaller than the first one in 2017. my reading mate was aware I took the weed, he wanted to take it too but I didn't give him because if both of us become high who will help who?. we got to our reading site, we were playing music and reading, I finished the handout in no time and slept off only to be woken by the feeling of laughter. that same voice I heard in 2017 came again and told me welcome, it then told me to begin to laugh, but I declined. it came again and told me to shout and sing the burna boy's song we were listening to, but I declined. I quickly told my friend that I'm feeling high, he should take me home, but he didn't respond because he hasn't read enough, my breathing changed and I stood up and started walking home, he quickly followed me but he couldn't keep up because I was too fast. we got home and I took my bath but it was still as if I'm have 1000 people talking in my head at once. the next morning I got up and was ready to go to the exam hall when my friend told me the time was just 6am and exam is 10am. later we got to the exam hall and I was just laughing at the questions because they were too easy, I finished first and forgot my writing materials there. the result came out and I scored 99/100.
my second experience also changed something in me. since that day even if I'm asleep I can feel it if someone is around me, and I will be able to tell if they are male or female. that is the last time I touched or saw weed, and I plan to stay that way.

have you ever had a weed experience?
come in and share with us lets laugh at ourselves.

no lies please

what narcotic do nigerians call colorado?


+7
Nigerians refer to a dangerous synthetic strain of marijuana, or a mixture of psychoactive herbs and chemicals, as "Colorado," or simply "Colos". It is a highly addictive street drug that causes "zombie-like" states, severe psychosis, organ damage, and is frequently misused by youth.

Key details regarding "Colorado" in Nigeria:
Composition: It is not standard cannabis but a mixture containing unknown synthetic chemicals, sometimes including PCP.
Effects: Users experience intense hallucinations, anxiety,, and violent behavior, often leading to organ damage.
Popularity: It is popular due to being cheap and easily available, often sold on the street and in small baggies.

Holluwhakemmy:
Use that 20M to buy land in your state and put the Baale in shame, or go to court if you are sure of what you posted, let your husband be man enough he shouldn't kill himself because of land issues

This sounds Nice if his objective is to build house for show, but he sounds like someone investing, and he should asses it that way..if the 10 million demanded by the Baale will make the investment no longer viable, he should sell the land and move on.

You need to name the baale, copy the govt?, even show his picture for the world to see.

If your decision is to fight, fight properly.

Most people prefer to settle as it is faster and easier and costlier.

I have experienced it in Portharcourt and Lagos, in both cases I settled but the demands are not as crazy as yours.

So it is up to you.
