They will make all these monies and yet you won't see any reasonable investments they make here. No factories. No industries. .

All these millions go into buying big FOREIGN cars, drinking costly FOREIGN wines at the club and importing gorgeous FOREIGN ladies from Russia and Ethiopia. It doesn't go beyond these.

None has serious investments here, apart from their big mansions in Lekki that are of course furnished with all sorts of FOREIGN gadgets!
Essentially, all these cash made from all these heist, go back to the Western economies few weeks after the looting. They only thing that endures is the shame and stigma that Nigeria and Nigerians carry for the crime of these few..

Think about that..

You're using free chatgpt which is equivalent to Wikipedia

Whichever search engine he used is fine. I go like make him ansa my questions.

manmade:
I asked the chatgpt this same question and see what I got :

Based on management, a fair assessment of Nigerian governors should examine financial management, revenue generation, infrastructure, institutional development, continuity of policies, and measurable improvements in citizens’ lives.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s eight-year administration in Lagos State (1999–2007) deserves particular attention in such an assessment.
Key areas to examine include:
Revenue generation: Changes in Lagos State’s internally generated revenue and its capacity to finance public services.
Institutional development: The development of administrative structures and governance systems that subsequent administrations continued to use.
Economic management: Policies intended to strengthen Lagos’s economic base and improve its ability to fund development.
Policy continuity: How programmes and institutions established during his tenure influenced subsequent governments, including those of Babatunde Fashola and Akinwunmi Ambode.
Strategic leadership: His administration’s approach to urban governance, public-sector organisation, and long-term development planning.
Other governors, including Peter Obi of Anambra State and Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State, can also be examined using the same criteria. A rigorous comparison would require comparable financial records and development indicators across their respective tenures.
The central management question is this: How effectively did each governor mobilise resources, build institutions, deliver public services, and establish systems capable of sustaining development beyond their tenure?
That framework allows Tinubu’s record to receive serious consideration without overlooking the evidence needed to compare his administration fairly with others in Nigeria’s history.

As the current president of Nigeria, how would you score his performance and why?

Reading the pathetic comments made above, it is obvious that many Nigerians are truly not fed up with Tinubu, you are not really angry over what he has done to you for the past 3 years, you are only pretending to be fed up..... If the comments made here truly represent at least 50% of the opinion shared by the masses then it is safe to say that tribalism and sectional sentiments have already done half of the job for Tinubu, his reelection and massive victory next year will be easier than I anticipated..... A revolution remains the most effective way to stop these political vultures from further destroying and oppressing Nigerians. Anyone looking for a savior to liberate them by leading a revolution for them is not ready or tired of Tinubu and his horrible government..... It is either Nigerians liberate themselves by fighting for their freedom now or endure another 4 years of Tinubu.....

As it stands, Nigerians are about to make the same mistake they made in 2023…. Tinubu will get another term on a platter if nothing extraordinary is done by Nigerians to stop him....

Gbam!! The opposition is unfortunately not ready to do what they need to do.

Newsangle:
By Honourable Comrade Abdulhakeem Adegoke Alawuje
Disciples of Jagaban National Coordinator

The eyes of desperate political interests are firmly fixed on Nigeria's national resources, including the nation's foreign exchange reserves. In their desperate quest for political power, there is a growing concern that some political actors may resort to exploiting ethnic and religious sentiments, deepening divisions among Nigerians, and manipulating public opinion to achieve their ambitions.

But let one thing be clear: Nigeria belongs to all of us, and no politician's ambition is worth sacrificing our national unity!

I want Nigerians, regardless of tribe, religion, region, or political affiliation, to pay close attention to certain fundamental questions surrounding Alhaji Atiku Abubakar's political ambition and his approach to the 2027 presidential election.

FIRST: WHAT LEGACY IS ATIKU ABUBAKAR PRESENTING TO NIGERIANS?

Alhaji Atiku Abubakar served as Vice President of Nigeria from 1999 to 2007. Yet, in my view, his current campaign must do more than dwell on criticisms of the present administration. Nigerians deserve a clear, detailed, and verifiable account of what he achieved while in office and how those achievements would translate into better governance today.

If he believes he has the experience and capacity to lead Nigeria again, let him present his record, defend his legacy, and explain precisely what he intends to do differently.

Nigeria's presidency is not a retirement benefit for former officeholders. It is a sacred responsibility that must be earned through credible leadership, demonstrable competence, and a convincing vision for the future.

SECOND: CRITICISM IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR A NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AGENDA!

Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has every democratic right to criticise President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration. That is the essence of democracy. However, Nigerians also have the right to demand more than criticism.

Where is the comprehensive alternative?

How would he address inflation, unemployment, insecurity, poverty, exchange-rate instability, and the economic hardship confronting millions of Nigerians?

What practical measures would he introduce to strengthen the economy, protect public resources, and improve the living conditions of ordinary citizens?

A serious presidential aspirant must not merely identify the weaknesses of an incumbent. He must demonstrate that he possesses better solutions.

The Nigerian people deserve policies, not just political attacks; answers, not just accusations; and a credible vision, not merely an ambition to return to power.

THIRD: NIGERIA IS TOO BIG FOR VILLAGE-STYLE POLITICAL CAMPAIGNING!

In my assessment, one of the greatest weaknesses of Atiku Abubakar's political approach is the need to convince Nigerians beyond his established political circles. A presidential campaign should be prepared to withstand rigorous questioning, public scrutiny, and honest debate.

No serious presidential aspirant should assume that political loyalty is a substitute for competence or that a familiar political audience represents the entire Nigerian electorate.

The presidency of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is not a village chieftaincy contest. It requires the ability to engage Nigerians from every region, defend one's record before informed citizens, and answer difficult questions without evasion.

If Atiku believes he deserves another opportunity to lead this country, let him step forward with a clear agenda, submit his record to public examination, and convince Nigerians through evidence and sound policy proposals.

Leadership is not established by the size of one's political entourage, the loudness of one's supporters, or the frequency of one's attacks against opponents. Leadership is demonstrated by competence, integrity, accountability, and the ability to offer practical solutions to national challenges.

FOURTH: WHY SHOULD NIGERIANS ENTRUST NATIONAL LEADERSHIP TO ATIKU AGAIN?

This is a legitimate question that every Nigerian has the right to ask.

After decades of political participation and years of occupying one of the highest offices in the land, what new ideas, fresh commitments, and verifiable solutions is Alhaji Atiku Abubakar bringing to the table?

What lessons has he learnt from his years in public service?

How will his proposed administration be different from previous administrations?

What safeguards would he introduce to ensure transparency, accountability, and responsible management of public funds?

These are not questions of hatred. They are questions of democratic responsibility.

Nobody should be above scrutiny simply because of political connections, personal wealth, regional affiliation, or presidential ambition.

Nigeria's treasury is not the private property of any politician, political party, or political family. Public office is a trust, and every aspirant must be prepared to justify why that trust should be placed in their hands.

FIFTH: NIGERIANS MUST REJECT THE POLITICS OF ETHNIC AND RELIGIOUS DIVISION!

This is where I draw the line.

No political ambition should be allowed to threaten the peace, unity, and coexistence of our people. No politician should exploit the differences among Nigerians to gain an electoral advantage.

Whether such divisive tactics come from the opposition or the ruling party, they deserve to be rejected.

Nigeria is home to people of different ethnic backgrounds, religious beliefs, languages, and cultural traditions. These differences are not our weakness. They are part of our national identity.

The future of this country must never be determined by those who believe that setting one Nigerian against another is the easiest route to political power.

I firmly believe that millions of Nigerians across the six geopolitical zones understand the importance of national unity and will not willingly surrender their future to ethnic hatred, religious hostility, or political manipulation.

To those who believe that dividing Nigerians will deliver the presidency to them, I have a clear message: YOU UNDERESTIMATE THE NIGERIAN PEOPLE!

The fire of ethnic and religious hatred does not discriminate between those who ignite it and those who become its victims. Once allowed to spread, it can consume the very interests that initially sought to exploit it.

That is why responsible political leaders must choose the path of peace, patriotism, and national cohesion.

[b]MY FINAL MESSAGE TO NIGERIANS AHEAD OF 2027

Let us ask every presidential aspirant the hard questions.

Let us examine their records, scrutinise their promises, challenge their policies, and demand evidence to support their claims.

Let us refuse to be manipulated by political propaganda, ethnic sentiments, religious prejudice, or personality worship.

Let us remember that Nigeria is bigger than Atiku Abubakar, bigger than Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and bigger than every political party or individual seeking to occupy Aso Rock.

No politician owns Nigeria. No region has a monopoly on patriotism. No religion grants anyone an exclusive right to govern this country.

[/b]As we approach 2027, my position remains firm: Nigeria needs leadership that can unite its people, protect public resources, confront national challenges, and deliver measurable progress. Any aspirant seeking the highest office in the land must be prepared to prove that he or she is worthy of that responsibility.

Alhaji Atiku Abubakar must be judged by his record, his policies, his answers to legitimate questions, and the credibility of his vision for Nigeria—not merely by his criticisms of President Tinubu.

And the same standard must apply to every other presidential aspirant, including the incumbent.

Our loyalty must ultimately be to Nigeria and the welfare of its people.

THE 2027 ELECTION MUST BE ABOUT ACCOUNTABILITY, COMPETENCE, NATIONAL UNITY, AND THE FUTURE OF OUR COUNTRY—not ethnic warfare, religious hostility, or the personal ambitions of political elites.

Nigeria will survive every politician who comes and goes. The real question is whether our politicians will rise above personal ambition and serve the people with the seriousness, honesty, and patriotism that our country deserves.

GOD BLESS THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA!

I agree with the bolded assertation.

My final message to NIGERIANS with regards to the 2027 election is make your votes count!! Force a free and fair election, an election that all Nigerians can look back and say with some measure that it was free and fair. An election that the international observers and community can commend the government for holding.

I hope securities agents will be at the venue to prevent any disruption from potitical thugs.

Kudos to our U-17 female team.
