MrPresident1:
Is not a good thing.

Our Igbo brethren should stop calling Lagos 'no mans land'. It is irksome

Now there is a backlash

let the backlash continue. I'm happy with it. The climax of it all will either strengthen the country or break it.

You can't call yourself one country and be doing things like this, too petty.

clefstone:
These people do not know the consequences of what they are doing. This is a clear primitive tribal move targeted at southern tribes that are not Yoruba. As usual their fear of the Hausa/Fulani North will ensure that they(the North) will be spared this street renaming move

In Warri, Delta State, there are multiple streets named after people from other states. In fact, in Sapele, majority of their major streets are named after people that are not Deltans, including a Yoruba street and an Akintola street.

Tinubu is not going to be president forever and when the table turns, we will be here to remind them



Yes, they should. The heritage of Lagos is that it has been cosmopolitan for a century. That Lagos has multiple streets named after non indigenous people reflects that heritage you seek to protect

power is transient. The social media is an archive for future events.

The circle continues. Is the national honour not enough?

The govt should go on, this will make it very easy for even their core fan base to vote against them.

This govt keeps centering her reforms around one commodity. Is petrol the only commodity in Nigeria?

You cannot be seen doing the right thing for your citizens and be in the good books of IMF/IBRD. They are aimed at impoverishing 3rd world countries.

Still trying to understand how a country is making progress while her citizens are languishing in poverty.

Ask Google who has the most diverse nuclear weapons in the world.

Show us what comes up.

Continue brainwashing yourself, because at this point you cannot feign ignorance when there is the internet to educate yourself.

you think America will foolishly disclose all their arsenal to you?

Kingpele:
Trump need the money to build his ballroom in Whitehouse....however trump is gradually isolating America from the rest of the world, let him continue....one day he will wakeup and realise that the world have abandon America and its dollar and have chosen another world power and cut off every trade with US....na that time he will know he was destroying America falsely thinking he was making it great again..

isolate America? The world needs America much more than America needs the world.

Corona virus exposed China, Russia and how weak they are. If not for American science, no vaccines will be released. America singlehandly brought vaccines for a virus dey did not create and also made it freely available to all countries in the world. China won't do this for you.

Dogalmighty17:
He seriously is the dumbest person alive. These tarriffs are a tax on American citizens. Donald Trump is too stupid to know that the it is the citizens of the country that buys imported goods that pay whatever tarriffs are imposed. So American citizens will be paying more for imported items from Nigeria.

Tarriffs stifle demand across all chains of production. With reduced demand comes slowing down of the economy and rise in unemployment levels. Economic depression can result from arbitrary tarrif applications as we see Trump doing here.

The last time this utterly insane blanket tarriffs was done was in 1930. The Smoot–Hawley Tariff Act, passed in the US, caused the worst global economic depression in human history. Trump is too stupid to understand the cascading and boomeranging effects of what he just did.

In all this, the winner is China as more countries will seek to improve relations with them. The world cannot keep tolerating American bullying for long.

you really need to see it from the other lens. This Tarrifs will reduce import of goods produced in other countries, increase consumption for America alternatives, thereby bringing in more revenue and creating lots of domestic jobs in USA.

America cannot be having trade deficits for all countries in the name of big brother. China won't try this with you. I support Trump on this move.

Putindbutt:
The infrastructures that the useless PDP neglected and abandoned for 16years, Jagaban is constructing them. And some delusional people wants losers and failures to come back to power, dey play.

someone who reads this will think you've said the truth. Funny.

kingbee90:
Tinubu has really failed in Governance and in tackling insecurity in this country.

What a mess.

he's concerned about 2027

illicit:
Na wa o

This country has gone to dogs


Wetin we go do now

there was a country my brother, now things have fallen apart and no longer at ease.

Wow! Naija to the world

helinues:
Bro, it's not only in Nigeria, in every local election anywhere in the world, there is a measure to cross check the influence of non indigenes.

That is applicable anywhere including their region. Something they can never tolerate in their region but want to let it slide in other places

pls tell president Tinubu to divide the country. He can initiate the process, and blv me Igbo will support him 100%. This daily tribal jingoism won't solve the problem. Igbos are taking over your lands, taking over your businesses, taking over everything. Pls divide it and let Igbos go.

The constitution has given every citizen the right to live in any part of Nigeria. If you think this is an issue, then the president should divide the country and let it stop.

seunmsg:
The Lagos state INEC register will be cleaned up before the next election. The nonsense that happened in 2023 won’t be allowed to ever happen again.

we are waiting. Do what you want. Remember Lagos is just a state in Nigeria. We are waiting.

PresidObi:
My fellow Nigerians, you can see who has been stoking ethnic and tribal bias all over the internet. We wake up daily to be harassed by news of tribal bashing and irrelevant stuff in our own country.

You be the judge of who has been cause bigotry in this country.

I'm ashamed to be called a Nigerian right now. This govt is doing something in the history of Nigeria we have not witnessed before. This level of tribalism is unprecedented. God help us.

SmartPolician:
Oga, rest! If you are tired of one Nigeria, push for its balkanization. Until then, everyone has the right to live and vote in any part of the country. That's what the constitution says.

No ethnic group has pushed for this madness we call a country to end like the Igbos. If you are tired of the contraption too, get your legislators to do the same.

sincerely bro, this country is long gone.

The hate is just too much. We are only deceiving ourselves.

Like someone will enter motor of 30k to Lagos just to vote? Is this even logical to the person saying and propagating this hate?

I weep that I'm currently a Nigerian. This is shameful.

God, I'm tired of this country. How can an institution like INEC be saying this?

Citizens of a country migrated to another part of the country to vote. Like someone will waste almost 30k on transport just to go vote in Lagos?

Ofunaofu:
Reno Omokri, the rábble-rousér, is now rewriting history by claiming that the former capital of Nigeria was Lagos Island and not Lagos.

Truly, Reno Omokri is now a mádmán, róaming aimléssly

the guy is becoming childish. Every topic he claims master of.

Image123:
The Jagaban, very cheerful giver. You can't be near Tinubu and not prosper.
Ask US, Mobil and Lagos.

giving out our national money. Is the money his own?

I'm not against the govt rewarding people who raise our flag high, but truth be told, that money is just too much wastage. 150m each player. Pure wastage from a country paying 73000 minimum wage.

Edo No Be Your House, Talented Edo Artist Release Track On Peter Obi Ban


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNOVY4ClD9Y?si=sMNCR4ObZKtXOZSa

The Nigerian music scene just got politically charged with the release of a powerful new track titled “Edo No Be Your Own”, a fearless response to the controversial statement by the Edo State Governor attempting to ban Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi, from entering the state without his permission.

The single, which is already gaining traction across social media, is a direct musical protest crafted by passionate voices who believe in the freedom of political participation and democratic values. Delivered with raw energy, lyrical fire, and unapologetic commentary, “Edo No Be Your Own” captures the growing frustration among Nigerian youths over rising political arrogance, intimidation, and suppression of opposition voices.

Featuring hard-hitting bars and emotionally charged delivery, the song not only challenges the governor’s undemocratic declaration but also speaks on broader issues such as youth disenfranchisement, selective governance, and double standards in handling insecurity across the country.

With a mix of Afrobeat, street rap, and conscious hip-hop influences, the track is not just a song — it’s a statement. It echoes the sentiments of millions who believe Nigeria belongs to all its citizens, and no state should become a political warzone controlled by personal ego.

Whether you're for or against the ban, “Edo No Be Your Own” is a must-listen. It represents a generation that refuses to stay silent.

Now streaming on all major platforms. Join the conversation. Share your thoughts.

wow! I'm impressed.

Fuckyoumod:
Nigerians you are all in a mess! Una no know weytin hit una. APC no send una papa!

Just see what's more important to your governments.

That money is a enough to build the very hospital Buhari died in and the one Tinubu visits all the time in London. But no, na SUV's dey important pass hospitals.

This is how they are spending the subsidy money, while you buy fuel at exorbitant prices.

WICKED GOVERNMENT

this country is irredeemable. If only I can ask God why make me a Nigerian? But who am I to do so? Our leaders lack empathy.

Who buys cars for teachers, doctors, and all other civil servants in Nigeria?

On average, a Nigerian uses a brand new car for 5-10yrs if not more. Our politicians change their official cars every year.

Mshad662:
But as the chief security officer of the state is he actually wrong? to say to a non-indigine, sir kindly follow these procedures whenever you are planning to visit this state otherwise i can't guarantee your safety.

only shallow minded people keep mentioning this indigene vs non-indigestion stuff. It's highly petty.

FreeSpirited:
Of course I enjoy many Igbo food... That I criticize Abacha doesn't mean I don't enjoy others. But Abacha dint live to expectation.

to you sha. Try and chop better one

You see that digestive biscuit, my love for it knows no bound.

Madman Putin on the loose. He needs to be tamed. Trump's 50 days is too far

FreeSpirited:
Of course I enjoy many Igbo food... That I criticize Abacha doesn't mean I don't enjoy others. But Abacha dint live to expectation.

lol. You don't eat abacha with a sweet tooth, it's a special delicacy like snack. Not food persay.

Thunderfayamods:
Which Igbo food is near Yoruba list of food? That is your food and your culture and we also have ours.
That doesn't stop the fact that we eat each others food neither does it make one the best over the other.
The way una dey reason needs to be studied.

you were hyping it like it's the best food in the world. I'm only making you know it's your delicacy and not another's. I've tasted Amala, and blv me, una too hype am. Try travel and eat elsewhere

FreeSpirited:
But igbos don't like Amala and Ewedu
They used to talk down on amala + ewedu as a shitty combination.
They rather hail fufu + abacha
While Oyinbo just appreciated Amala and Ewedu as a great culinary discovery. This is surprising

try chop another tribe food first.

Igbos have variety. So Amala is not near our list of top food. Beta fufu plus ofe nsala is heaven made.

Factcheck0001:
Amala to the world

Na Wetin I just chop finish now with better ewedu with ogunfe.


Haters will come n cry, I pray they don't claim it as their own someday same way they are claiming egusi today

you go talk say ur mama soup no sweet before? Enjoy ur amala

DeepSight:
A First Lady publicly at loggerheads with her president-husband was for me the only thing that slightly could suggest any merit to the theory of a body-double. Not many people remember how openly antagonistic Aisha became to the president at a point. That is an extremely rare thing at that level of the state. Disagreements, yes, but public hostility? Very rare. Something or the other must have gone down.

Nonetheless the conspiacy theory remains a stretch, and I do not subscribe to it, to be clear.

that conspiracy is too elementary to blv. Doesn't make sense actually.

Gambling rule is to stake wat u can afford to lose. Not your life savings.

The worst addiction is drugs. It will drain your purse,body and mind.

the best rule is to avoid it altogether. That thing is evil.

sweetjohn:
Are you people not ashamed saying all this nonesense. Do you know what it takes to wipe out a whole country as big as Ukraine in one week without a nuclear? No country can. You can cause significant damage but can not wipe out any state in Nigeria in a week without a nuclear talkless of a country bigger than Nigeria by landmass.

Ukraine is not bigger than Nigeria by landmass. Get your fact right.
