Is it not double standard that you have never stood up against similar trend in Kwara State where we even have a Fulani Dynasty?
How many have you stood gallantly against the massacre taking place in the northern part of the country?
Charity should start from home.
I don't think you are morally qualified to judge others when you are guilty of similar wrongdoings

Only one party agreed to the splitting. The jews were refugees from Europe whom the Arabs/ Palestiniansinitially welcomed but the British said they must split the land so that the jews will have a place exclusively for themselves. Why do the jews want somewhere exclusive in a modern world preaching inclusivity. If you think Israel is fair then i pray what Israel did to palestinians will be done to you and your family. Mind you, what israel did does not excuse what Hamas did but the rules of morality and decency remains sacrosant. It shouldn't apply to some and not to others simply because you hate them. Kill Hamas but leave innocent children alone.

Sarcasm at its finest. That you are tagging people's posts up and down shows how frustrated you are. Young man, get employed gainfully. The system has not favoured you

3ice9ce:
Calm down. This wailing na by zoning. Na Agulu Central dey wail. E never reach your turn for Awkuzu West.

A mockery of intelligence.
Justices of technicalities

I was actually expecting that you agree to the fact and truth that Nigerians are REALLY suffering. But you dodged the truth. What is the essence of saved money when people are suffocating, suffering and dieing on a daily basis? Is saved money an accomplishment now? What happened to the others that were saved?
Stop being a sycophant. Saying the truth will not kill you, especially not on a social media platform like this. Nigeria cannot grow with such mentality

Paraman:
Government no explain how they spend the money... Una go wail

Government wan explain how they spend the money... Una go still wail

I will see how una wailing will turn Nigeria to Dubai

How has the "saved" money impacted the lives of the common man. Truth be said, people are REALLY suffering. Let's not deceive ourselves. Things are worse and it seems that they would get worse.
Was this how it was in the inglorious years of past administrations? Next level to renewed hope looks really bad.

Paraman:
It seems a lot of people just want to complain no matter what the government do

On the link below, people wailed and mocked the government for not been able to account for the money saved from the fuel subsidy

Now wey government wan release how the money saved as been disbursed, some people are already wailing on this thread.

Mature minds handle issues headlong without deviating from the subject. If you need to bring up LP criminal records, then you can open a new topic exclusively for that.
Back to the main issue: How do you feel about 3 cups of rice as palliative?
Honestly, let me tell you something. These politicians are pitching us against ourselves while they loot the treasury. Why don't they use all these billions spent on rice to fix the refineries so that we can buy the product at a lower price? What can even a whole bag of rice do for poor Nigerians?
Anyways, I greet you as a friend.

does it make sense to you labour party officials to steal palative

Whose fan are you?

Numerouno94:
You folks re funny. First u claimed no one voted for Tinubu that INEC rigged him in, now ur happy for this rubbish cos according to u they voted for Tinubu. Make una no they contradict unaself.

BTW, I'm no fan of Tinubu but I get pissed wen folks like u make fun of people because according to u they voted for Tinubu. How do u know they voted for Tinubu?

Pls, don't divert the issue under consideration.
Comment on the issue. Does it make sense to you?

yarimo:
While in ABIA STATE labour party officials stole everything

I love your maturity in replying him. Some individuals just lazing around looking for people to attack die to different political ideologies or tribal affiliation. Thank Bro

That is because u read but never understood anything.

She has been cleared. We don't vote like the people of Rivers state.

We are wishing him well to work and succeed but this place isn't a place where u shout at people as if it is ur ikwere people. This is F.C. T it is the home of highly educated people.

I talk because I am a stallholder in the FCT. I own nothing less than five lands and two shops and If this angers u so be it.

You were the first to comment in a post you started. You have your personal aim for the post. What was the Mission's mission to Cuba? That's how news should look like. I greet you for your efforts though

VP Shettima is competent, able and ready to take over after President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR.

We talk too much in this country. Simple resume office and take actions. At the end of the day, somebody will find who to blame for lack of action. Act and let your actions do the talking

May the Good Lord keep you till this day in 2027. Save this comment and come back to defend it.
Best wishes

Ttalk:
We believe you are bold, experienced, and committed to repositioning the country in the right direction.

My sincere appeal to Nigerians is to be patient with this administration and endure the present condition. There's no better time to salvage this country other than now. Nigeria shall be great.

To those that would hide under this administration to perpetrate their corrupt tendencies and soil the good intention of Mr. President, we would expose and shame all of you. As we watch closely your performance under this administration, note that you won't be spared the moment you derailed from the renewed hope agenda.

To the members of genuine opposition, your freedom is guaranteed when constructive criticism provides alternative solutions to government policies.

Now is the time for the losers turned haters to sheath their swords and support the government, constituting public nuisance would not give you the presidency. You have another 4 years to present yourself, don't burn Nigeria today.

Nigeria shall be great

Special greetings to you.
One love.
Best wishes 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

JIBO4REAL:
Seriously you started this by insulting me anyway I am sorry if that hurt 😢
I just asked if you can mention any country in the world that sell bread lower than Nigeria but instead to give your view

Your reply shows your IQ level. Someone who can never reply someone without using insulting words is so irritating. Show your reply to your kids (if you have any) and see how 'intelligent' they will view you.

By the way, I don't think you have visited more countries than myself. If you have, then I wonder why you responded like that. I have also visited most regions of this country. So I can make my candid view on issues.

Anyways, I didn't force you to accept my viewpoints. And I also respect yours.

One advice: Learn to make constructive comments without insulting anyone. You don't know me and I don't know you. A man's worth is evaluated by his words and how he treats others.

Thank you, Mr. Intelligent.

JIBO4REAL:
If you says Nigerian are used to low and cheaper things I won’t have replied you.
I don’t barter with a low IQ person like you that ordinary WEST AFRICAN or Neighboring country like Benin, GHANA 🇬🇭etc. you can’t compare, well I won’t blame you because ordinary your neighboring State you didn’t visit
Ask your friends or elders the standard of living in Benin, Ghana, South Africa etc and their minimum wages
Then you can come back to talk here

Why explain if it wasn't a lie?
Acknowledging the fact that he left plenary for consultation at the villa on Niger issue is acceptance of guilt as charged.
Let's move to other important issues.
Karma will sort you guys out someday

I actually don't know how much they buy loaf of "break" in other countries. But what I know is that before asking such question, as yourself: what is the general standard of living in those countries compared with yours? Sometimes, we are quick to compare cost of living without looking at the income levels in those countries.
Can you compare a country where minimum wage is #400,000 and a loaf of bread is #3000 to a country where minimum wage is below #30,000 and a loaf of bread is #1000?

Use your brain Bro.

JIBO4REAL:
How much they buy a loaf of break in other countries

So even buying a loaf of bread at #1000 is now ok?
So pathetic 😭 😭 😭 😭

Rayban25:
my brother abeg enter shoprite and buy it 1000. I hope the bread youre buying for 1500 is worth it. very painful something.

Does that justify the allocation of that huge sum of money for mass burial?

FreeStuffsNG:
Smh. He just woke up. For almost 3 years, the state has advertised and announced severally and even set up a committee for members of the society to come forward and identify or report to them a missing relative, no one came forward for any of these bodies.

The state went further to spend millions to preserve these bodies while waiting for the families, particularly those alleged to be killed at lekkilies, still nobody came forward.

Should LASG continue to keep the bodies for ever or should we forever believe the lie that anyone killed will not have families, friends, neighbours, pastors, imams etc.

If Amnesty International Nigeria is serious, it should not have kept quiet but helped the government publicize the long drawn public announcement to members of the public.

I will support Amnesty if it will offer to bear the cost of the extra days the LASG will be keeping these bodies. It is not enough for them to talk, talk is cheap. What will amnesty undertake to ensure that the families are found and tax payers in Lagos does not continue to bear the brunt and cost of keeping these bodies for ever. They are in govt mortuaries at a cost borne by the govt for almost 3 years now, what does amnesty want to do to help Lagos?

When I stated some months ago that the solution to the problem is to revamp our local refineries, a clown was justifying that rise in pump price, even saying that petroleum prices will be higher even with the local refineries working.

I silent applauded his foolishness without replying his comment. I wish he can quote me again and genuinely apologize for his foolishness.

The big question remains:
Why can't the local refineries work?

Bobloco:
https://punchng.com/nnpcl-monopoly-ends-as-marketers-fuel-vessel-arrives/?amp

As logical as your analysis, it's has some missing bricks.
Despite their nonfunctional state, the refineries still have workers and huge money is expended annually on maintenance.
No matter your appraisal, it pays more to refine than to import. That's where corruption creeps in. The elites know this very well. Subsidy is free money for leaders. It doesn't exists, so its removal is a sham.
Anyways, I respect your opinion on the subject.

nairalanda1:
The same Abacha under whom refineries were depreciating?

Plus keeping fuel at N11 fro years had a long term effect.




If it was never there, then why are you complaining about its removal?

If there was no subsidy, we would have been paying over N100 for fuel since 2011.

If not higher self.

Plus the looting from subsidy happens because it is at the end free money, and also when you fix prices of products, you foul up the profit motive ....and people would end up using underhand means to earn money.




Fuel costs money to refine and transport. It's not meant to be cheap man. Or how do you expect the refineries to make enough profit to fix things and pay workers?

Ghana, Niger have refineries and no subsidy. And no corruption. And their refineries work.

Only countries that can have subsidy sucessfully and have working refineries are countries like Libya who have populations below 10 million and produce more fuel than Nigeria. Or countries like Iran whose subsidies eat twice their oil revenue...and can live with high debt without complaining as a result.

In the economics of fuel in this country, Nigeria never sold at a loss when the refineries were producing. Have you even heard of the "Abacha miracle"?
Subsidy was a leeway to steal the national wealth. We don't have accurate statistics of fuel consumed in this country, so how do we know the subsidy to be paid? It's simply a sham. It was never there in the first place.
Again, we will continue to pay highly for the product since we continue to import.
I will leave this conversation for the next 8 years. Then we can continue the analogy

nairalanda1:
Yes we can so long as the refineries make a profit doing so

Which subsidy was not allowing

Key word,selling at a loss

Can your country at least refine its products?
Do we need to import what we can easily produce?
Working refineries=no subsidy, and your leaders know that

nairalanda1:
The way the subsidy scam works, first there is price controls, then there is payment for the resulting lossess...the subsidy.

The thing is, it is in the payment that opportunity for looting and corruption arises.

At the end, subsidies cost a lot of money because the government has to spend a lot of money paying for potential losses. Based on the fear of the losses being too high, a lot of money has to be paid.

That;s where the looting comes in...

Also, the fact is, when one brings in price controls, you in essence foul up the profit motive. People go into business for the sole purpose of making money...not just for their pockets, but to run their business. Subsidy took that away, made the refineries crash because of prices being kept too low, and then forced us to import, which in turn provided lots of opportunites to make money.

All because we all wanted cheap fuel.

The problem is, there is no such thing as cheap fuel.

Countries that used to do price controls all had one thing in common...massive scarcity, and large black markets.

You are really a dragon slayer .
I love your response

Lol I think the Lagos Ibadan Express way is at 80 to 90 percent unless you jus don't want to tell ursef the truth....


The road is better than the Previous years of OBJ...

"Commissioner for Poverty Alleviation". Interesting!!!!
What was his performance or scorecard that won him another prestigious position His state is one with the highest level of poverty in the country and he was supposed to alleviate it for the poor masses.
Anyways, may history judge him by his deeds, whether good or bad

I rather not trade words with you.
Learn to respect people's decisions and viewpoints as you would want them to respect yours.
That's what a civic individual does.
Have a nice day today.

Fut9ure:
Answer my question

Why are you alive today?

Just Answer please

In a public space like this you don't force your beliefs on others. Neither do you mock what others based on their views and beliefs. It actually shows how low you the kind of person you are. Sports is meant to be enjoyed. Some wins, some losses. Such is life

So if you don't believe in a God, keep it to yourself. Don't exposed it. We still love and respect your opinion. But let me ask you:


How are you sure that your parents are really your parents? Who told you that you really are what you think you are and not some random dude picked from an odd place? Because you were told or do you have any scientific proof When you get that right beyond all reason questioning, then we can start talking about God

.

You have to be completely dumb to believe God exists

Will he still stay behind and do communal services for the people this week in the market places, streets and church like he did during the campaign?

Gullible people!!!! These guys only come every four years to subscribe your support and off they go. They don't know or care for you. After all the fighting and insulting online and offline, we will all return to the street and continue our usual hustle.

Lesson: kill yourself for no politician. Avoid tribalism and nepotism. We the masses are all suffering. We are on our own alone. The ruling class cares less

Where is Prof. Uju who doesn't even know what nature of death route she will travel? I pray she doesn't experience what she wished others

Live! Don't hate.

That guy must be on Nairaland. I am sure ����.
