Depends on what you prefer: terrible or dead.
One is terrible, the other was dead!

Hahaha. I go prefer terrrible o. But seriously sir, Tinubu hasn't been entirely bad. You can only fault the subsidy removal process and his role in bringing in Buhari.

Buhari failed choosing his ministers within 6months.
Buhari was on medical tour for a better part of his 1st term.
Buhari's security board and several other appointments arguably was North dominated.
Buhari closed the borders to support local farmers but this saw an astronomical increase in food prices.
Buhari contemplated controversial policies like RUGA, Operation Python dance in South East etc.
Politics in South East got heated up during the Buhari tenor with the IPOB becoming visible, activities culminating in a Monday sit-at-home culture.
There were allegations of Buhari not being hands on, appointing dead persons into his government, agencies/parastatals having open confrontations etc.
Buhari was accused of never shifting grounds as he paid deaf ears once he is decided on an issue.
Buhari appears a not-so-good negotiator.
Buhari really borrowed.

Tinubu on the other hand reversed the 8k transfer palliative when Nigerians protested it.
In the last 3months, he has been on a single medical trip.
His appointment to top security outfits appears an even spread.
Tinubu instead of hinging revenue mainly on borrowing took out the subsidy even though I disagree with his procedure (should have firat made refineries available).
Tinubu attempts carrying opposition along with appointing some into boards even his fiercest critics.
Tinubu has appointed several young Nigerians into government which we never really saw under Buhari.
On international fronts, Tinubu appears intentional about boosting the country's image/profile. He made solid his/Ecowas position on coups, has been interphasing personally with top government functionaries and Heads of States- India, UAE, USA and this has seen renewed hopes of investments and lifting of Visa ban against Nigerians.
Tinubu appears a better negotiator, meeting labour unions personally to resolve disputes.
Tinubu speaks to Nigerians. I see Tinubu every once in a while on TV news. I recall not seeing Buhari on TV for a while. If they show am at all, na when en dey waka go FEC meeting or walking in Aso Rock.

NOW, I AM NOWHERE A TINUBU GUY (check my other posts) AS I DO NOT AGREE THE LAST ELECTION WAS FREE AND FAIR, I MEAN WHO WOULD VOTE APC AFTER ITS LAST OUTING? HOWEVER, ANY NEUTRAL WILL AGREE WITH THE POINTS RAISED. YOU CAN FAULT IT TOO IF YOU WISH. WHAT IS YOUR TAKE?

SEUN, MYND 44, AFAMED, LEXY, DOMINIQUE.

You do know that Nairaland is a site, not your life?



Qatar: 1.9 m barrels a day for 1.1 million people
UAE: 2.8m barrels a day for 12 million people
Kuwait: 3million barrels a day for 4.9 million people.
Saudi Arabia : 11million barrels a day for 40 million people


Nigeria: 1.6 million barrels a day for 230 million people.

Any questions?

And my point eventually is oil money is not enough for us. For us to be rich, we have to 1) be an exporter of manufactured goods and services 2) be an exporter of manufactured goods and servicies 3) be an exporter of manufactured goods and servicies 4) have a diversified economy which involves us being....an exporter of manufactured goods and services.

Which is why your governments are bad because...they do not want to go the route of us being a manufacturer of gooods and services. Because they are chosen by people who love imported stuff and don't want to be..(you get it now).




Note that I do not deny embezzeling happens...but if we used oil judiciosuly...at the end we produce the same amount of oil as Libya for a population that is 20 times that of Libya. We produce about half of the oil the UAE produces...and we have a population that is twenty times theirs.

Our leaders are korrupt, I DO NOT DENY THAT...but if they were not, we are still not having enough from oil. That is why we need a leadership that would make us become...an exporter of manufactured goods and services.





Well, most Nigerians are not bus conductors or civil servants or in formal employment, most Nigerians work in the informal sector, and that area is notoriosuly undertaxed.

As at 2019, 30% of Nigerians pay the taxes you just mentioned. 30% of taxable Nigerians. That's not much. Our tax to gdp is even lower than Niger Republic self.

What you see is what you get.






Yes, but when we ask you to join or form a party, you don't have the time...so, I guess the people will keep choosing the bad, until YOU stand up.




Well, if we want to be like the USA...we have to pay taxes like the USA, and like the USA, become an exporter of manufactured goods and services. The oil we have cannot sustain a country of 20 million people, talkless 220million.

Which is why you people should please for God's sake stop voting APC, PDP, LP and company and vote in some new parties.

I really enjoy your perspective on issues and look forward to them. Ofcourse you are aa reader, but more than that, a writer with emotional intelligence who tries to be polite regardless provocation. Can I get to know you, I mean beyond the forum?

Trust me I want to learn as you have learned.

I have queried your stance especially on subsidy, thinking you are an APC apologist, only to find you are only a realist.

I will like to know you.

[quote author=lailo post=125518061][/quote]Bros speak to the Restructuring message he spoke about. APC in 2014 raised the issue of restructuring Nigeria and won many hearts on that sentiment. Fast-forward 2020, Buhari and the APC denied canvassing such issue.

Tinubu again raised the issue and SouthWest in general has for a while been at the forefront of the messsage. Tinubu now ha s the opportunity, how come he's quiet on it.

That I expect should have been the first point of call for him. Many Nigerians do not believe in the Nigeria project and getting Nigeria to work, most if not all, hands must be on deck.

What is Tinubu doing to reinvigorate the Nigerian spirit?

If you take the pain to check previous posts, you'll find I believe in Tinubu and not a random hater even though I also disagree with some of hia decisions. Take time to go through my post to appreciate how unbiased I am.

Etyfy:
It's okay Mr Patrick. We understand in Africa when someone is blunt and confident we term it arrogant. Love him or hate him...he is greater than your father ,even my father too. #IToldThem

You call coming very late to an organized event while yet insulting and kixking the fans you kept waiting, being blunt and confident?

I'm a Burna fan too, atleast I love his sound; but call out his rude, crass behaviour for what it is.

Pray for Nigeria. Years of decay in our value system has messed things up. Crime is rife across the nation.

Kukutente23:
Well, it's not as you put it. France does not have the right to deploy weapons of warfare or even troops in its embassy but I won't be surprised if that's the case right now.

Sir, what you do to maintain your territorial integrity whether aboard a national carrier with its State flag, international ship/vessel, embassy; is entirely up to the threatened country, so long rules of engagement ia honored.

#87 as an agbado guy. .

In sincerity, I wouldn't completely blame Tinubu, Buhari messed the country up real bad. For persons trying to paint Buhari a saint now, come off it, Buhari failed thia country with due respect.

Here is where I fault Tinubu;
1. In 2012 he led a protest against subsidy removal even though he knew next to nothing about it or was just being unpatriotic. He has since then not seen the need to address that issue, apologize to the Jonathan government and Nigerians. It is convenient for hia patronizers to say Jonathan has since moved on, but has Nigerians moved on; are we not right now suffering the consequence of that move, has the economy moved on?

2. Before asking the Nigerian citizens to bear the pain of auterity, what sacrifices have the elitist, political jobbers made. I maintain Nigerians decry the subsidy cause of trust deficit. If Tinubu had cut down governance cost conisderably, inconveniencing himself, Nigerians will be sympathetic towards his cause. Howbeit we have here a government maitaining long list of aides, dual legislature (I know the constitutional requirement for cutting down this by the way but APC promised restructuring), the humonguous allowances etc; these were not reduced, yet you want Nigerians to bear the cost of maintaining such extravagance.

3. The refineries should have first worked before any subsidy removal.

4. Economy bled under Buhari and Tinubu never coughed. Politics/self-preservation should not take the place of patriotism.

Lordsonn:
All the junta's need is to mobilize violent unarmed protesters to breakthrough to the embassy and force them out. If any one of them is killed, it should be published globally that France is killing peaceful protesters. This will bring more global sympathy and condemnation of France

Doesn't work thay way. The moment a single protester steps into the French embassy even in Niger, he or she is in France's soil and the French government has a right to protect it's territorial integrity.

The world also is not oblivious of the coup in Niger and it's attendant illegitimacy.

Nigerians! FG invites popular names, problem; FG invites non-popular names, wahala- list does not inspire. Wetin make government do?

Let's be constructive when we criticize.

For Tinubu, oga should have cut cost of governance, reduce money budgeted for NA members and the executive, fix refineries, address the restructuring issue he promised before removing subsidy. That way he would have earned the trust of Nigerians first. There is a trust deficit as Nigerians are not even sure money from subsidy removal will not be embezzled. By the way, politicians no dey forbid to make sacrifices too.

Is04970:
Tinubu is doing well.
Nigeria is on the path to greatness with Tinubu /Shettima economic policies.
Those who sow in tears will reap with joy. So the Bible says.

What is the government sowing? Why must the sacrifices be made by the poor masses alone?

Do you know if Tinubu upon assuming office sold off most presidential jets, lobbied for a cut in allowances and pay to National Assembly, fixed refineries in 3months, called for restructuring and state police as he always advocated, No Nigerian would have complained if he removed subsidy?

Trust would have been earned by these reforms. You can tell Nigerians to make sacrifices while the political class is not ready for any sort of sacrifice.

plaindealer:
Candidate Tinubu swore to remove subsidies and even said no matter what or protests, subsidies must go and he even removed it on his first day on office.

He did not hid his intentions or devieve Nigerians, he openly stated this policies and Nigerians knowingly voted for him.

All the noisemakers shouting now didn't vote for him.

Nigerians lived too long in the land of awoof and subsidies from fuel to education and all manner of free and cheap services that the FG can no longer sustain, it's time for Nigerians to live in the real world, it's time for Nigerians to start paying and demanding better for what they are paying for.

It makes no sense to demand quality and first class services while refusing to contribute their fair share

The same awoof loving Nigerians love to insult and abuse Nigeria, they love to compare Nigeria with the advanced countries where their people pay to get to the advanced state that they are today.

Many of them want to japa to places where they pay taxes with half of their salaries and work and pay for2 the infrastructures and social services that they refuse to pay in Nigeria..

For example in Germany and other countries in Europe, the citizens pay 42% of their income in taxes and un return, they get quality lifestyle and infrastructures

Nigerians need to wake up and smell the coffee, the era of awoof and subsidized life is gone for good.

Buddha3:
Locus Standi:

Etymologically of Latin origin. Literally translates to "place to stand".

Grammatical derivatives: moral standing. Grounds to be heard. Basis of reason.

Should I continue? Or have you been able to connect the dots?

locus standi
/ˌləʊkəs ˈstandʌɪ,ˌlɒkəs ˈstandiː/
nounLAW
the right or capacity to bring an action or to appear in a court.
"a foreign government which has not been recognized by the UK government has no locus standi in the English courts.

You are talking to a lawyer very respectfully sir. Within the context use, "locus standi" is wrong. Having locus is having a right of action in law.

Buddha3:
A lot of us are eager to see the Nigerian Judiciary proving her efficacy and independence, using this Presidential elections petition, as a locus standi.

But it is going to do you much good if you don't allow yourself to be used as tools and mediums of false news propagation, please.

Sir, what do you understand is the meaning of locus standi as used within the context you used it?

Pray for Nigeria

Watch how APC l*natics will still tag it a welcome development. In the name of planting b4 harvest.

No wonder tinubu audio-promised them 8k.
He know how to whyne his people.
Even if tinubu is cutting thier scrotum, it 'll still be a welcome development for them.

This one weak me. Guy I been support subsidy removal but the inflation dey reset brain.

The part where you talked of Tinubu's supporters trying to spin it got me laughing hard.

honeyB2018:
Wether the post was long or not, I did it to highlight some critical point you missed.
Nobody in Lagos State, can ask anybody to go to anywhere, as long as there's an entity called Nigeria.
Lagos State, is a collective development, not the development of the Yoruba land. I have told you before, the critical infrastructures that were done in Lagos State, with all the money from all parts of Nigeria, you want other Nigerians to leave it and go to where? It's never and can never be done
The Nigeria constitution gave all, not only the Yorubas the right to contest election anywhere, vote and be voted for. It's just that parochialism and sentiments, will not allow the indigenes to see beyond their nose, otherwise what right has any one from Ekiti to be governor in Lagos State, that any Nigeria from another region don't have?
You lack the power to send anyone out of his chosen place of residence
Which Igboman, said Lagos is no man's land, yet the buy land and are given receipts?
It's just giving a dog a bad name.
This shenanigan you Yorubas are doing, will surely backfire on you shortly.
Mark my words. You think you are smart enough? An end is coming and it will be quite disappointing.

I will start your last paragraph. I don't know why you feel if one holds an opinion on an issue, he is from so and so area. Go to Calabar and ask of the Ansa family, then you'll better know my root instead of assuming I am Yoruba.

That said, I wonder what infrastructure you keep insisting Nigeria built for Lagos. Lagos stopped being Nigeria's capital over 3 decades ago. Do you know what that means. Poor governance with Nigeria's poor maintenance culture would have killed what infrastructure you felt Nigeria built. You have to first admit good leadership for the so called infrastructure to still be in Lagos and improved on. Now, was it Nigeria that gave Lagos the BRT it no enjoys, what of the blue and red rail, what about the improved IGR? Can you compare IGR of Lagos in the 60s to it's IGR today? What of in the area of security, is it the infrastructure of the 60s that created the RRS and security Lagos enjoys? If Lagos were Anambra where citizens sit at home Mondays due to insecurity or Borno, will investments still be in Lagos? By the way go check the record how much investment came into Lagos since Sanwolu's administration alone and tell me if it's infrastructure of 60 and 70 that pulled in the investments.

Worst part is Calabar, Lokoja were once capitals, but you people never mention those states.

Lastly there are states with federal infrastructure especially in the north, Kaduna and Kano are clear examples. How many times do Nigerians go describe those places "no man's land."

Note: I can't remember anywhere in my text I mentioned Igbos calling Lagos a no man's land as I am tribalistic. You are the one that mentioned Igbos calling Lagos a no man's land.

honeyB2018:
I don't want to be hard on you. People like you sometimes, mislead others thinking they are making a reasonable point. You cannot compare Lagos State, with any other state in Nigeria. This is because it's a state being run by non- Indigenes. The population of Lagos State, is made up of 90% non- Indigenes and 10% indigenes.
We're not talking about Yoruba land here. The civil service of Lagos State, is dorminated by non- Indigenes. If you don't have ancestral home in Lagos State, you are a non- Indigene.The economy of Lagos State, is been developed and run by non- Indigenes, so their politics.
Let me enlighten you bit.
Awolowo from Ogun State played his polictics here.
MKO from Ogun State played his polictics here.
Aregbeshola, Yayi, James Faleke, Obafemi Hamzat, ditto people from other tribes.
The IGBOS have been in Lagos politics and economy and development before independence.
Lagos State, is mini Nigeria, it was our former federal capital, developed with our common resources. The ports (land and sea) were all built and developed with our common resources. Critical infrastructures in Lagos State, after the war were done with our common resources. So how can you compare Lagos State with others? When I mean non- Indigenes, I'm not talking about the IGBOS alone,I mean all Nigerians.
The development of Lagos State, was and still not the development and contributions of the people of South West alone. The problem is that the other states in the South West, don't want to acknowledge the contributions of others especially the IGBOS in the development of the State. Or else what right has anyone who's not a Lagosian, by ancestral heritage in Lagos State from any part of South West, that another Nigeria from other parts of Nigeria don't have?
You don't reap where you never sowed. It's not about Yoruba, but it's about Lagos State. If any Nigeria of South West extraction should invest in the Igboland,the way the IGBOS have invested in their land, why not, they can as well be part and parcel of the good, development and politics of Igboland, no one will stop them
There are Americans and Britons of Yoruba extraction, who have contested and won elections in those countries. I don't think, those people sat down in Ogbomosho, Ilawe, Ikare , Badagry are won the elections because they were Yorubas. They participated in the politics, economy social life and development of those places.
How many companies own by a Yoruba do you find in the South East?. Rano Oil, Indimi Oil, BUA cement companies from the North are in operation in the South East, tell me one company a Yoruba owns that you find there and you are asking wether a Yoruba can be found in the civil service of any state in the South East.
How many people of South East extraction can you find in the civil service of Ogun, Oyo, Ekiti or Ondo States? If Lagos State' s development, wasn't our (Nigerians) collective contributions, why didn't the likes of Awolowo, M K O etc stay in their state and develop it, rather the came to Lagos State
Just of recent, former Vie- President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, who came from Ogun State to Lagos State,to study, play his politics, relocated his pulling both, from Lagos State to his own State and town in Ogun State. Why didn't he stay in his state for whatever he wanted politically?
The Igboman, is like the target of all Yoruba tribal attacks and all Nigerians are keeping quiet, they forgot that an injury to one is an injury to all. In 2003, under Tinubu as the governor of Lagos State, the Yorubas attacked the Hausas and Fulanis, what were the offences of those innocent Hausa/Fulanis that were massacred then? Did they campaign or entangled themselves with the politics of their host nation then? Did they say Lagos was a no man's Land, was there any boundary dispute? Did the but lands and never pay for it? These are questions we need to ask and find out.
African China made a song with it, Nigerians laughed over it. This happened in this same Lagos State, in 2023, 20yrs after, the turn of the IGBOS came, tomorrow, it will still be this same Yorubas against another tribe and we all will stigmatize the affected group, till it will get to every tribe, then we know, wether Lagos State, is for the Yorubas as alone after developing it with our collective resources. On the payment of school fees, go to LASU and find out. There are fees non- Indigenes pay that indigenes don't pay. I stand to be corrected.
I rest my case with you.

The long post is not necessary. Until you move Lagos out of the South West to anywhere else, it remains the collective heritage of the yorubas.

You've referenced Nigerians going abroad and getting into politics, do these Nigerians go to the UK and desecrate their monarch? How many Nigerians have gone to the UK to call it a no man's land," disrespecting the aboriginals?

If you feel you have contributed to Lagos, they have now asked you to take your contributions elsewhere. Go develop your land.
By the way Nigerians are in Abia, Anambra, South-South especially where you have a mix of many different tribes, nobody disrespects the indigenes. Who born you to talk down the Oba of Benin?

Lastly, whether an Osun man is made a governor in Lagos or an Ekiti man, so long the yorubas allow it, who am I to complain?

Yugoslavia247:
All these recent I am not a Tinubu fan peeps. Abeg keep it up. Scammers. Who ask you. Mu...u.gu 30

Tinubu has failed. First thing is a dumb president will never be reasonable even if the world's best CBN gov takes over. As much has some vested interest are involved.

Tell me how BDC will be eliminated and I will be glad

Atleast you can access these "scammers" past post to tell if they were supporters of Tinubu.

Murray Bruce a well known opposition in PDP has come out to also drum support for the president. Is he a scammer too?

VinnyBaba:
Ogbeni, it is too early to praise Tinubu.

Isn't this how Nigerians were praising Goodluck Jonathan and Buhari in the 1st 2weeks of their Administration?😏

Maybe because Buhari's Failure was so collosal, hence any little action of Tinubu is Magnified.

Pikin when Chop Dry Bongafish for 4years, when given Kpomor, would call it Fried Chicken. 😒

It's good we are starting to agree that Tinubu is doing better than Buhari, atleast that's a start. For the record no one is angrier with Buhari's administration than my humble sef. I however remember a number of persons claiming Tinubu will be worse of than Buhari. Tinubu is proving them wrong already including you.

VinnyBaba:
Some Nigerians get Carried away easily. 😒

Just because of mere Subsidy Removal and this Overdue Emefiele sack,
Tinubu is praised by some.

Just like praising Arteta or Eric Ten Haag after 2 Matches in an EPL season.

Tinubu/APC will still Fail, Last last. 😕

Is your prayer all about Tinubu failing or Nigeria working? Nigerians sha!

koladata:
he owes no apology bro, was there tesla in 2012, whats there ukrine war in 2012,was there covid 19 in 2012? or has the world finished recovering from covid 19?, how many barel of cruid oil was nigeria selling in 2012 how many are they selling right now? . what was the price of crude oil in 2012?

In 2012 Tinubu and Buhari came out to say there was nothing like subsidy. We are not all dump, of short memory or of crass recklessness. If Tinubu had said in 2012 there was nothing like subsidy, what is he looking to remove now?

Some of you play politics with everything. Decency demands that when you are wrong, you apologize and move on.

That said I see no correlation between COVID 19, Ukraine war and the subsidy crisis, etc. Subsidy imbroglio precedes Jonathan's administration. It has been a national cancer for years. APC needed not play politics with it.

I however support Tinubu taking it out.

koladata:
2012 is different from 2023. many things has changed generally in the world

Bros this excuse is quite lame. I support Tinubu's removal but he owes Jonathan GCFR and Nigerians at large an apology for the 2012 protest when he knew next to nothing about subsidy or chose to play politics with it.

honeyB2018:
You are entitled to your opinion my brother, but understand, that the constitution of Nigeria guarantees every Nigerian the right to live anywhere of their choice peacefully vote and be voted for.
You should know that it's not only the IGBOS that lives in Lagos State, who are the majorly target of this so called proposed law. When it's passed into law and signed. Don't forget, Yorubas are in other places aside their own.
My major concern here's that most members, who wants to promogate this law are not Lagosians.
Obasa himself is from Ogun State, Hamzat Obafemi iis a prince in Ogun State. Most of the head of ministries and departments in Lagos State are non- Indigenes.
Let the law come, then other states Wil also emulate them, let's see where it will take all of us.

My brother, the point is we must stop the hypocrisy. Don't dish out what you can't take. How many states are as liberal has Lagos? Why must other states promulgate laws that favor first their indigenes and Lagos is prevented from doing same? Can an Imo State indigene work in Abia state civil service?

Is it not Lagos' liberal stance that has earned it the slur "no man's land?" Can an Hausa man go to Aba and say it is a no man's land?

Let's stop the hypocrisy abeg. Other states have been doing theirs no be today. I already mentioned Edo indigenes pay lesser amount in Ekpoma than non-indigenes.

I am from Cross River, living in Edo State and never supported APC, my previous posts are enough proof, but you see the issue of SETTING IN MOTION LAWS THAT RECOGNIZES YORUBAS IN LAGOS AHEAD OF OTHERS, I SUPPORT IT."

Agreed, the Lagos government cannot proscribe the movement of non-indigenes to Lagos, it can put in place laws to favor first it's people as other states do. You can't keep cheating the yorubas because of their liberal disposition. What the hell is "No Man's Land." In Edo, indigenes pay far less than non-indigenes as students of it's University, Ekpoma. In Abia, a man from Imo can't work in their civil service unless he alters his place of origin. Nobody therefore has the moral justification to call out the Lagos Assembly as we all are guilty of same tribalism.

With regard oil within the Niger-Delta and the call for relocation of oil coy's HQ, we made the region uncomfortable for experts, kidnapping them and so on. It is left to the private owners to decide where they want their companies situate. Even in real estate development, we use "Youth Chairman and Deve.." money spoil things. Abegi!

CBN governor cum politician. Supervised the worst economy Nigeria ever had.

People lost the lives, businesses, marriage etc because of the Naira-swap policy ad today you can't find the new notes anywhere.

Livelystone01:
Really?
He needed power, why do you think Democrats in the USA cried hard against Trump yet did same when Biden came onboard?

People, especially in politics understand the concept of power, it is taken not given and they'll do anything to take it and respond to the same thing they condemned.

Jonathan shouldn't have allowed these guys control his desire to do what he thought was right. I recommend you to read the laws of power to see how the game of power has to do with interest, nothing else.

You never started what Trump did that Democrats protested over carrying placards, shutting down the country as APC did using "Occupy Nigeria," only to turn back to adopt when Biden entered.

Americans for one regardless of the side of the divide puts America first. An issue as serious as subsidy that keeps raising our debt profile should not be politicked with or don't you think so?

To the Robert Greene's book you alluded to, it is largely Machiavellian in principle and last I checked many governments around the world put their country's interest first ahead of power.

Tinubu should be decent enough to apologize to the Jonathan administration else it will be said he lacks the tenets of being a principled gentleman. Gentlemen in the America you talked about resign from government for things like this. It's called preserving one's honour.

Livelystone01:
Why should they protest against themselves?

Isn't it the job of oppositions to protest against what they don't like? Na WA o...

Nobody is interested in protesting as many understand the wrong of subsidy. Nigerians are only asking Tinubu to explain why Jonathan was made a villain for the same subsidy he now wants to remove.

For the record, I believe Tinubu will perform, however he need to answer that question or apologize to Jonathan. We must be decent even while playing opposition politics or we have no business governing.

How Buhari lost so much goodwill beats everyone. As the writer said, the most ardent of his supporters will in closet thank God he is leaving as economic hardship caused by his reckless policies touched everyone.

From double digits inflation to Naira flopping even down to businesses shutting down; so sad.

Nigerians emigrated in droves in an attempt to escape the hardship. A simple check with the number of Nigerians that applied to "japa" the last eight years will tell you how bad things went.o

Kapeter:
Show me the one that has been free and fair since 1999.

Pray tell me the man that talked about CHANGE!

Kapeter:
And how did he force himself on the people? He contested just like everyone else so please enlighten me seems there's something i'm missing bro

If you sleep well at night believing the process that brought in Tinubu is free and fair, who am I to deny you that peace of mind?
