Why not mention Niger is fourth on the list? ... why cut off at #3? ... isn't Niger in the competition and can move to fourth? Why not mention cobalt deposits in the DRC? Why not mention iridium ... more valuable than gold ... very rare ... very much needed for cutting edge technology... why not mention almost exclusively mined in South Africa?.... why not mention found in abundance in Haiti? Haiti's President was assassinated ... what have you heard about Haiti since?... that it is over run by gangs. Did you not hear the UN Peace keeping force is there?... but didn't hear they were protecting US companies from digging and fetching out the iridium. You should really wonder why their President was assassinated. You should really wonder why Burkina Faso will be fighting terrorists and who are the sponsors. You should wonder why terrorists are causing havoc in countries that have mineral resources that the West wants to control and extract. Younshould wonder why Idi Amin kicked non Africans out of Uganda and try to find out what he did for his people instead of what the West said about him.

Lol same way Buhari told us how Abacha was a good man but the west try to make him look bad….lol. It is always the west…smh. Thank God China and Russia has come to liberate you guys…lol. Hate can make ppl sound so foolish sha

Realtruth2023:
Have you lived in Burkina Faso?

Why? Do you need to lived in Nigeria to know we don’t have 24hrs power?

Princedapace:
My point exactly is this: The west creates unrest in your country once u dont align with them except u are very strong and have strong allies. This is a known fact. They will create unrest by creating groups against ur govt. I never said they created IPOB. But know that no unrest is without a strong backing by govt or non state actors.

Keep Blaming the west but you have not told us who is freeing repentant boko haram? Is it the west?

GreenCovering:
And to think that this was a record already broken by former governor Yahaya Bello, who ironically, is top on the EFCC's wanted list for corruption, baffles my expectation of you guys reasoning capabilities.

They are easily fooled.. All it takes for them to praise is he gift 100 bag of rice…lol

GanagiBitrus:
I will be happy if Nigeria can make similar progress like China.

me too I will be very happy. We all want the good of the country. I will not praise a dictator with zero stats to show how he has improved Burkina Faso. They always try to whip sentiment lol by using the west as a scapegoat.

GreenCovering:
The facts are there.
Nigeria is doing way better o. Please stop comparing us with people who are looking up to us.

Dont mind them…lol

GanagiBitrus:
Well, I used Good Dictator to represent a system outside Democracy.
China is doing well under Communism.

Lol how are they doing well? Do you know how many Chinese that are in Mexico border trying to cross to US? The current president took over from someone but as soon as he came in he scattered the table…lol He removed term limits. Like I said Absolute power corrupt. China has made a lot of progress but it doesn’t mean that one president have all the answers.

FuckYeyeMods:
Let other international community give them needed support and see progress

Which international community? The same corrupt and evil west? Lol

Eriokanmi:
Leaving ecowas alone is huge progress. Dont just comment, take a seat and watch these countries progress in no time.

I remember when people were saying who would go and spend vacation in a desert town of dubai. Their leaders never relented on their efforts on developing cos they had a vision. Today, if you've not visited dubai as a successful man, you're not anywhere. Once you visit once, you must come back again. Mention one leader in Nigeria who doesn't have a property there today, incl via proxies. Guess what, it now rains in dubai. I witnessed the first rain in 2015 during my visit. Geographically, the seemingly impossible became possible

Any wise Nigerian business man should be thinking of how to explore opportunities in these african countries now, instead of hauling insults at them. I'm doing that already in Niger.

where are the stats to show the improvement trends?

onadana:
You don't sound OK to me...go.back to bed..or eat something you need to.oooo.NATO survive with all its military weapons from Africa.Which Africa?The cursed continent.

lol don’t mind the clown. The next thing they will tell you China built railways for Nigeria…lol

OBIDIENTNAIJA:
I was born the the late 80s and I can tell you that I enjoyed those days. Not the rubbish democracy we're practicing now. So forget. Things were lot better during that time than now. Corruption have taken over big time. So sad

I was born in early 80s so I will like to know what you enjoyed? So for starters someone in late 80s cannot say he enjoyed anything since you were a baby then with zero sense as a baby. IBB became president in 85 and then you were probably not born since you were born in late 80s. He started SAP then he was extremely corrupt leader called chop I chop…lol things started falling apart from his time because the naira started devaluing and then abacha took over things got from bad to worst. The point is the only people that can say they enjoyed Nigeria should be 60s and 70s not late 80s because by the time you had small sense Nigeria was already in a mess created by the so called military men.

franvincoop:
Don't know abt Burkina Faso, but u see Cameroon, Chad, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, citizens of these countries no know wetin be Generator.
I repeat dem no know wetin be Generator.
24hours light na sure all over the country no be only for capital city.

I leave in Ghana for 5 years back in 2009 electricity was stable so I am not saying it is impossible but Burkina Faso do not have 24 hrs electricity. The point is do not just come post lies just to justify where your sentiments lies. I will praise the dictator when I see stats of his achievements.

GloriousGbola:
nothing we havent seen before, right down to the populist unsustainable policies that have led us to where we are today.

all these unsustainable subsidies we are struggling with today were also started by military administrations

Dont mind them. The government took loan to build train yet the train cannot even generate revenue to service the loans and we keep hearing I declare one month free train ride…lol.

Hecrax:
He (Traore)provided more than a hundred modern tractors,etc to local farmers in Burkina Faso amongst other good deeds for his people obviously you never travelled anywhere 🤡

What is the impact? Show us the stats. Abi you follow for say na statistics we go chop?

GanagiBitrus:
Well, my point is that Democracy is a white man's system of Govt, & we have not really made any meaningful progress as a Nation under democracy. Black man is too crude for democracy.
Corruption in high & low places have been thriving under democracy.

The point remains that there is nothing good about a dictator. What is a black man system of government? Is dictatorship a black man system of government?

mamaafrik:
Say who ??
Do you know that 50% subsidy is paid by f.g over keke,motorcycle or taxi bought by citizen??
Do you know that they have 24 hours power??
Have you seen the apache of weapons that they got recently to secure their borders?

I have a friend there ,don't say what you don't know

lol this is funniest thing I have heard today. Burkina Faso have 24 hours power supply….lol oga I give up

michlins:
and what progress have we made under APC

Are we praising APC? lol so you are aware that he has made zero progress and you are celebrating him…lol

atobs4real:
Good thinking good products.
What a beautiful thought.
We are still hear depending on crude oil.

What is beautiful about the thought? What has he achieved since he is the president? Can you give us the stats? How do you ppl celebrate without showing stats on the improvement he has achieved?

GanagiBitrus:
Democracy is too refined & sophisticated for Black Africans.

A GOOD DICTATOR is still preferred. 👍

There is nothing like a good dictator. Absolute power corrupts. Imagine you have Buhari to rule you for 20 years…lol. Just 8 years and the man destroyed the country…lol

OBIDIENTNAIJA:
If Nigeria follow suit, we'll witness unprecedented development. Our leaders in connivance with our colonial masters are causing us to retrogress

what did the previous ones achieved? Was there a time any military leader managed our resources properly? The dollar crisis you are experiencing today did you think it started today? Have you asked yourself how black market started? Go back and check the history of who created the black market and how it has benefited a certain region….

JASONjnr:
Where do they get their gun powder and uranium and other elements used in producing nuclear weapons from?

Why do we have terrorists in selected areas in Africa where those elements are common there?

Who is freeing repentant book haram? Is it the west? Who is ensuring that the north remains uneducated? Is it the west?

JASONjnr:
Aside the fact that the west will try to pin Traore as a tyrant or a bad leader, they will equally cut him off lots of aids or loans. This is a gimmick they have been using to colonize Africa.

Until Africa wakes up, we will continue to be indebted to the west when all they do is come to Africa to steal our resources.

NATO survives with all its military weapons from Africa.... Yet we're worshipping them when we could use our resources build our nations.


Africa should Cut them off and watch them suffer.

The west is the least of your problems. The last minister of power has a case with EFCC regarding how he diverted about 22 billion naira meant for your Electricity to buy properties in Dubai…lol. This is just one minister. A governor in a poor state transferred 720k dollars just to pay children school fees…lol that is just one governor….smh yet every day you guys come online to talk about the west.

SadiqBabaSani:
stop praising nonsense, Burkina ain't making much progress since these military guys actually took over

Don’t mind them….lol. They cannot list his achievements but post nonsense about west and celebrate China and Russia as their messiah. How can you run from one slave master to another slave master… lol and start deceiving yourself that you have been liberated…lol

Racoon:
The decision to free his nation from French colonial griphold and the puppet ECOWAS was also definitive and precise. These young military turks are proving to the old corrupt geriatrics African leaders that leadership can be military but revolutionary.

Can you list the progress they have made? What has he improved?

yarimo:
ALEX OTTI is the only unserious Governor in Nigeria that preferd snapping pictures than providing good governernce

Even your kids know that this your statement is just a foolish statement….lol

ogaontop:
When will Nigerians actually appreciate who is working?
Is this man with his shortfalls not far better than any other governor that has ruled Abia since 1999

Honestly it is a kolo that will work for this kind of citizens. They love Bello.

Kukutenla:
I hope all those blind fools are reading now
Most Nigerians are sentimental and intellectually fickle. They lack the ability of mental rigor. They just jump on bandwagon without independent and critical thinking.
The govs that they all claimed are the biggest casualties are now rejoicing more than them.
When I said the LGs will be cut off from the IGR of states they were insulting me. Where's that neophyte loswhite now.

Look at mugus all around the thread. They are helping the govs to cry. Most of them are now confused and consoling themselves with lies and blissful ignorance. One dude even claimed the governors took fg to court. Others said they "contested" it. Oh Nigerians, when will your mumu do.

The internet allows dunce like to think you are an expert…lol. Where is the internal revenue generated from? Is it not from the local Government? Why would the Governors cut local government from where the revenue is generated? If you have such foolish Governors and yet you are clamoring for resource control for such idiots…lol are you not displaying that you are bigger dunce? It is normal for a mad man to think the others wearing clothes are mad

senatordave1:
Fg is not the new master Mr.was it not same fg that disbursed LG funds to state before now

A clown that said separate issues from personality….lol. Imagine a prostitute pastoring a church telling us about Jesus Christ…..lol. The level of foolishness of the citizens will tell you exactly why we are in this mess in the first place.

Kukutenla:
I'm getting convinced more and more that democracy is not fit for the African man. One of the basic tenets on which democracy stands and thrives is the supremacy of the rule of law.
I already explained. Maybe you're too dumb to read and understand. This judgement makes disbursement to LGs at the discretion of the FG. The FG can now say well, so and so LG is not democratically elected so we are not paying them. An undemocratically elected LG can also get paid as long as it is in the good books of the FG. So imagine now that a governor takes FG to court for paying an LG he feels is not properly elected against the Supreme Court judgement. The case will go to the SC straight. How will the SC give judgement? Is it based on the constitution it just trashed or is it based on the judgement it just gave? You shallow minded retards don't even know what you are bringing up.

Again, if Tinubu meant well, he should have fought for financial autonomy for state legislatures and judiciary. Buhari attempted that by issuing EO10. Funny thing is it was same SC that trashed the EO. If the legislatures are no longer tied to the apron string of govs, the process of constitutional amendment becomes easy. More importantly, they can now reasonably provide the checks and balance envisaged for them in the constitution. From there, everything will fall in place as desired. But turn a judicial panel of 7 to a legislative body doing the work of 469 legislators is simply a usurpation of powers and an affront on the constitution. If you support lawlessness today because it sits with your prejudice, don't cry when it will not.

Shut up most dunce always thing they are wiser than everyone. Everything you stated here is just your childish imagination. Can you even listen to yourself? The presidency can decide to pay local caretakers because they are in their good books… Go and sleep because you obviously don’t know what you are saying. I am not surprised most of you are useless appointees for governors. After all clown like you thinks that an ex convict that stole from the state funds can lecture us on Nigerian constitution…. Smh. Bunch of ill citizens that always attack the federal government even though they know their Governors is just looting them dry.

bigpicture001:
Without the LG funds...Anambra can't smell development.....tinubu just want to slow down pace of development of local government because of 2027...

He wants to scatter Nigeria...if he uses INEC to conduct LG election then he can get grassroots who will remove governor or work for his re -election....

State allocation and IGR is too small to devdlop a state properly.....

shut up your mouth. It is too small to develop a state but yet kogi governor had the effrontery to transfer 760k thousand dollars without blinking…smh. The greatest problem of Nigeria is foolish citizens like you.

Deltatoto:
atleast some lp apga sdp members are in nass.with states conducting LG elections what u see is 100/100.

it doesn’t have to be first. It can come now after the Supreme Court judgement.

EreluRoz:
Tinubu really need to do something. Nigerians are really suffering . Peter Obi will be happy things ain't going well

Nigeria citizens are just something else. What has Peter obi got to do with this? Buhari destroyed Nigeria and Tinubu campaigned to continue in his legacy and you voted for him… lol and now you are saying Peter obi is happy about your foolish choices…smh
