koladata:American like jobs with health insurance and pension. Immigrants will do work without health insurance and pension as long as they get a paycheck Those are 2 different scenarios. |
opes:America has the largest car buyer market in the world. That's why they can shakara the whole world. They sell it financed with 6% interest They don't need foreign buyers and much as foreign sellers need them. Americans probably buy more Ferrari's and Lamborghini than Italians. The Golden rule:He who has the gold makes the rules. |
This will boost all American cars Create jobs for Americans. Chevrolet and Ford and Tesla. Importation of cars ruined Detroit, Michigan Imagine what car importation has done to Nigeria |
lapintoz:Muhammadu Buhari increased Nigeria’s minimum wage during his tenure. On April 18, 2019, he signed the Minimum Wage Repeal and Enactment Act into law, raising the national minimum wage from 18,000 naira to 30,000 naira per month. This adjustment aimed to address the rising cost of living and improve the livelihoods of Nigerian workers. Buhari raised minimum wage Paid oil subsidy Paid forex subsidy and Paid loan servicing obligations. Tinubu has not done anything special Where is the borrowed money going to ? |
easzypeaszy:I dont care about Buhari and even Tinubu, Peter Obi or Atiku You dont even have enough sense to see what these people are doing to the country You are coming online to defend people who dont really care about you Are you a slave ? I care about Nigeria |
Paramount01:Do we really have a NASS ? The same ones fighting pant removal allegations with a senator ? Have you ever seen them question the federal arm of government since their inception |
arantess: True, my problem with Abaribe is he tends to be sectarian I agree Abaribe is also vocal. Ndume talks for all Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo. All Nigerians. |
Sunshine34:You responded. Meaning you get the point.......lol |
blowjohn:I appreciate the fact you recognize intellectual strength when you see it. Just for comparison Dangote might not be able to carry a bag of cement alone. |
Dr Tope Delulu (delusional) Your argument is absurd and utterly detached from the reality of most Nigerians. Claiming that N1,500 still holds significant purchasing power is laughable. N1,500 will not get you a meal in Lekki, or anywhere in the rest of Nigeria, this amount barely covers transportation costs. Even if 1500naira bought you a meal. 3 meals will be 4500naira and a whole month of 30 days will be 135000 naira. For one person. So how does a family of 3 Survive on minimum wage ? Your suggestion that minimum wage earners should be able to survive on N1,500 is a gross misrepresentation of reality. With inflation soaring, a minimum wage of N30,000 is inadequate for basic needs, let alone a decent meal. Fasua’s condescending remarks about “making difficult choices” ignore the crushing poverty that millions face. His example of giving N1,000 to a security guard, while quaint, doesn’t change the fact that systemic poverty is rampant. It’s a cheap, feel-good gesture that doesn’t tackle the real issue. The comparison to President Trump’s governance is nonsensical. Fasua is trying to deflect blame for Nigeria’s woes onto global events and leadership styles, while ignoring that the problem is domestic mismanagement. His “post-COVID recovery” excuse is just a lazy cover-up for ineptitude. In short, Fasua’s views are a delusional attempt to sugarcoat Nigeria’s dire economic situation. His statements are more about deflection than addressing the real issues of poverty, inequality, and economic collapse. After introducing poverty , now they are weaponizing it. |
Newton1045:First of all — all three of you failed us. Tinubu, Buhari, and you standing there asking irrelevant questions. But let me be clear — the worst of the bunch is you — because you’re asking silly, disconnected questions when Nigerians are suffering real problems. Buhari — for all his faults — had to deal with real crises: 1. Covid Pandemic 2. Forex Subsidy Crisis 3. Oil Subsidy Burden And he still had to find ways to finance these with billions of dollars at stake. But Tinubu? What is Tinubu’s excuse? No Covid Crisis. No Forex Subsidy payments. No Oil Subsidy burden. Yet he is borrowing more aggressively than Buhari ever did — with absolutely NOTHING to show for it. So the question Nigerians must keep asking is: → Where is all the money Tinubu is borrowing going? → Are they looting the federation dry right before our eyes? |
These same people have protested in the past during Buhari, GEJ's regime. They were never arrested. |
Ali Ndume is practically carrying the entire Nigerian Senate on his back — alone. The rest? Useless benchwarmers. 2 years gone — not a single federal revenue-generating project in sight. (How are we going to pay back these loans with falling Crude oil prices) Tinubu is borrowing faster than any president in our history — with zero oil subsidy, zero forex subsidy, zero Covid crisis to blame. So where’s all the money disappearing to? Akpabio is busy deciding whether to stay outside Natasha’s pants or crawl inside — while the rest of the Senate follows him like blind men chasing a clown. The 10th Senate isn’t a parliament — it’s a fully operational circus. How do we pay back these loans? Oil prices have dropped from $110 coming down to the $50's......Our revenue is Crude Oil sales.

VnAhunnaPl:We are borrowing at the most reckless, record-breaking pace ever seen — all under Tinubu. Yet, there is absolutely nothing tangible to show for it. Let’s not forget — this is a government no longer paying for fuel subsidy. This is a government no longer paying forex subsidy either. But somehow — we are borrowing far more than when we were shouldering those heavy obligations. So the question is simple — Where is all that money going? 2 years in — not a single federal revenue-generating project has emerged. Not one. Just borrowing to spend. Borrowing to share. Borrowing with no vision for wealth creation. |
Ali Ndume has simply said what every honest Nigerian knows — the bitter truth. Nigeria’s loans under this administration are nothing but a pipeline for awarding bloated contracts to friends, cronies, and political patrons. We are now 2 years into Tinubu’s government — and not a single major federal-level revenue-generating project has been commissioned or completed. Not one. It’s all borrowing to share, borrowing to spend — but never borrowing to build wealth for the country. June 2023 - $500 million - "women programmes to scale up" June 2023 - $800 million - "cushion the effect of high petrol prices after fuel subsidy removal" September 2023 - $700 million - "The Adolescent Girls Initiative for Learning and Empowerment" December 2023 - $750 million - 'Renewable Scale-up." Whatever that means! June 2024 - $1.5 billion - "Enable Nigeria’s reform for economic transformation" June 2024 - $750 million - "Efforts to stabilise the economy to scale up support to the poor" |
CodeTemplarr: Even their so-called agricultural initiatives seem more like elaborate schemes to access capital allocations and hand out inflated contracts to cronies. There’s been zero real growth felt in the agriculture sector — food prices are higher now than when he took office. And ironically, no administration in recent history has thrown as much money at agriculture as Tinubu’s government. So the question is simple — where exactly is all this money going? Because it’s definitely not reaching the farms or the average Nigerian’s table. |
CodeTemplarr:It’s painfully obvious at this point — the man looks completely overwhelmed and totally out of his depth. Every day, it’s the same pattern — Ministers and appointees holding press conferences, not to announce innovation or revenue strategies, but to outline new ways to spend budget allocations like kids in a candy store. Not a single one of them has a credible track record of generating revenue or building sustainable wealth — not in business, not in governance, not even in agriculture. It’s been 2 years already. By now, serious countries would have scaled up agricultural exports, built processing hubs, or opened new foreign markets for local products. But in Nigeria? We are still recycling speeches and launching empty committees while debt piles up like dirty laundry. This isn’t governance. This is expensive trial-and-error — funded by loans our unborn grandchildren will be forced to repay. |
CodeTemplarr:I gave him time to see his "performance" All that Tinubu developed Lagos is a scam This man has no revenue generation Ideas on a national scale. Tinubu has not successfully implemented a national revenue generating project in Nigeria. Nothing good will come out of this regime. They are here to borrow and allocate contracts. No revenue generation mindset. |
Its going to get to 2000 naira. I am 99% sure this government is paying some form of subsidy ....... Even the people we borrow loans from their house is on fire with tariffs. Tinubu has no plan on how to generate revenue, he is only borrowing and allocating to non-revenue generating projects. |
Compare it to their IGR Some states have no business borrowing money. You dont have revenue you are borrowing money to build roads. How will the roads be maintained..... ![]() How will the loan be repaid ? |
Tinubu has zero revenue generation Ideas. All what was done in Lagos was because of establishments by the federal government when it was the country's capital Now he is just borrowing loans like crazy 2 years into his administration there is no new revenue generating project by Bola Tinubu to justify the amount of loan he has borrowed. The 10th senate is filled with clowns, so they have turned it into a circus. Today is sexual harassment, tomorrow its alleged murder plot. There is zero oversight of the federal government. If you catch Akapbio and ask him how much has Nigeria borrowed till date. I am sure he has no idea. But if you ask him what color wrapper Natasha wears to the red chamber the most. He might have an accurate answer. Nigerians, these people dont care about us. The nation belongs to all of us ,not just the alleged winners of the elections. We have to stand up fight and resist these people. |
“It is one thing to borrow money for development. It is another thing to borrow recklessly like a man who knows he will never have to pay back. Unfortunately, Nigeria is in the latter category under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.” Senator Ali Ndume didn’t say anything new. He only vocalized what millions of Nigerians have been grumbling about in their homes and on the streets — Tinubu’s government is borrowing Nigeria into its early grave. Two years into his administration — what exactly do we have to show for it? Where are the mega farms feeding the nation? Where are the new government-established companies employing 100,000 Nigerians? Where are the state-backed industries generating foreign exchange? Zero. Nothing. Emptiness. Yet, Tinubu borrows like a gambler in a casino — knowing full well he will not be around when the debt collector comes knocking. Dual Citizenship Appointees: Agents of Capital Flight It is a matter of national security and common sense. More than HALF of Tinubu’s appointees have dual citizenship — the highest number in Nigerian history. Let us be blunt — these people did not swear loyalty to Nigeria alone. They hold passports from America, the UK, Canada, and Europe — countries where their families reside, their assets are hidden, and their future is secured. They never declare their assets abroad. They have one leg in Nigeria for looting — and one leg outside for escaping. These are the same people controlling Nigeria’s purse strings. What stops them from moving billions abroad when their loyalty is divided? Absolutely nothing. My Recommendations 1. Mandatory Declaration of Dual Citizenship Every appointee must publicly declare all other citizenships they hold. No exceptions. 2. Quarterly National Debt Report The Senate must publish quarterly reports detailing: • Total Debt (Domestic + Foreign) • Specific Projects Funded • Repayment Timelines • Revenue Generated From Each Project 3. Ban Dual Citizens from Critical Economic Portfolios No dual citizenship holder should manage Nigeria’s economy, foreign reserves, or national security. The Senate: From Oversight Body to Comedy Central Under Senate President Godswill Akpabio, the Nigerian Senate has been reduced to a circus. Instead of overnighting the federal government, Akpabio is battling allegations of sexual harassment — an embarrassing distraction for the third arm of government. The Senate floor — once a place of serious national debate — now feels like open-mic night at a stand-up comedy club. Akpabio has been rightly branded Nigeria’s certified political jester. But the joke is on us — the Nigerian people. Tinubu’s borrowing spree without productivity is laying a time bomb for Nigeria. Debt is not the enemy — unproductive debt is. If the money borrowed is not used to generate more wealth, Nigeria will soon face: • Currency collapse • Sovereign default • Massive capital flight • Extreme unemployment • Brain drain of the best minds And when that happens, those with dual citizenship will escape. The rest of us will be left to pick up the pieces. Senator Ali Ndume is not just right. He is the only one left with the courage to say what everyone else is too cowardly to admit. If Tinubu continues borrowing like a man who knows the house is not his — Nigeria will not survive the rent due date.

dokyOloye:So if you are 100% sure they are in the bunkers, then go after the people in the Bunkers....No ? There is no excuse for mass killing in 2025.....Thats exactly what the Jews claimed Hitler did to them during the Holocaust at Auschwitz. |
dokyOloye:I am an advocate for peace. Using a few killings to justify genocide and wiping out the whole people is not the solution to the problem in the middle east. Israel said they will solve the Oct 7th problem by killing all the Hamas. Do you know how many innocent people have died as a result ? You are lucky you don't live in Palestine. They would have killed you too and called you Hamas. You get my point ? |
themanderon:Take your medications....... |
Isreal trying to justify a reason to destabilize Syria. They feel like the new USA of the middle east.....always trying to find a reason to invade any weak country around them. First it starts with media propaganda, second will be a false flagged staged attack and then third is the revenge.........lol Same script every time, now they are on stage one with Syria. Mods..Pictures attached are completely unrelated to the above story. OP Botragelad is always posting false gory pictures trying to vilify Muslims, calling them Islamist and using false pictures to denigrate, discredit and incite against Muslims. Its the Ramadan and restraint should be exercised. I believe this forum is not a zoo.I have attached evidence, which is visible by a quick reverse image search. These pictures are from 2019. Completely irrelevant to the caption. Nlfpmod Seun mukina2 Justwise Fergie001 nlfpmod

donself9:Its funny how Akpabio did not need his wife to suspend Natasha for 6 months. But all of a sudden he needs his wife to clear himself of sexual harassment. What kind of man needs his wife to defend him but he is busy reprimanding and punsihing people with suspension in the senate.......lol A guilty man. |
donself9:Mrs Akpabio has no office in Nigeria. A wife cannot charge her husband's accuser to court. All these are distractions. A Senator has accused the senate president of harassment. The case should be investigated by the senate committee on ethics It was done to Senator Abbo, and Remi Tinubu was one of the people who questioned him. Akpabio is using the ethics committee and the gavel to silent everybody that has a contrary opinion to his. |
donself9: I get you, we are just keeping the pressure, because he is also sending out online advocates, we wont allow him getaway with this one, He did it to Senator Ningi, when he complained about budget mis-allocations. He cant just be suspending everyone.....He is not God. |
xoverx:Oga, stop hiding behind legal catchphrases you barely understand. Yes, the onus of proof lies on the accuser in court, not on the Senate floor, where the first response to serious allegations shouldn’t be intimidation and suspension, but transparency and due process. Natasha raised an alarm. The correct move is to investigate, not to gag her. If Akpabio is so squeaky clean, why not welcome an ethics committee probe to clear his name instead of jumping to punish her? You want evidence? Let a proper process drag it out. But silencing her for 6 months smells like panic, not innocence. This isn’t a courtroom—it’s a legislative chamber. When senators start getting suspended for asking questions, democracy is already on life support. So before you chant “onus of proof” like a broken record, ask yourself: What kind of innocent man fears the truth being dug out? |
