I support Wike on this.

Some people will buy a land and just abandon it.

It shouldn't be allowed in our City centres

Nice read. Nigerian system has a way of rewarding people who have such nice thoughts. What goes around, comes around.

casualobserver:
You keep opening nonsense threads. Atiku’s 1st mistake was trying to outshine his master Obasanjo. But his fatal mistake was bringing Obi into prominence by making him his running mate in 2019.

Why was it a fatal mistake?
1: because OBI did not add any additional votes from the SE than they got under Jonathan in 2015, which is the purpose of a running mate. SE would never have voted for BBugari so he had nothing to lose 3 everything to gain by selecting a running mate from another region. instead he became the man who snatched away his date with destiny in 2023 by leaving the PDP with SE votes. He is also the one that will ensure he can’t win in 2027.

Its nice to watch you discuss region when people have moved past that and competence is what the people want.

Peter obi is no longer in front row unlike before, he is no longer important again

Blame it on your IQ.

ChiefOloye:
Hmmm, The North are not serious at fighting terrorism...
If they are not forgiving terrorists, they are paying them buy weapons to keep up with kid#apping and ki,llngs.

So it's the north that's setting them free not the president?

yarimo:
In alternate reality Nigerians all over the world are proud and happy to have TINUBU as president of Nigeria

Whatever happens, the media team must keep debunking the truth and pushing a different narrative. It's the game.

Holluwhakemmy:
stop bitter politics President Tinubu Jagaban till 2031, Your PO of Agulu Candidate doesn't have solutions to Nigeria problem, Tinubu is trying his best

Tinubu is trying his best or he's doing his worst?
Even the late clueless Buhari outperformed him.
He's a disgrace.

Jagabanarmy:
Tinubu is a monumental failure and must be voted out in 2027

What makes you think he was voted in?

shekauvsbuhari:
Igbos will never learn. They spend their money all the time building structures in other states while leaving their own place.
Serves them right.
After they have finished building, Tinubu now wants to hand it over to his people so that they can use the levy they collect from the Igbos to become billionaires while the Igbos continue to hustle for them.
Igbos will never learn.

You never learnt that they are conquered slaves that must contained? Did you? You think going back to their region would save them?
What are you even aware of or you are just busy regurgitating old recycled lies as some fancy facts?

Antoeni:
He is a Yoruba Soldier, Nothing Dey Happen

What have tribe got to do with this? You think Yorubas send Tinubu or Tinubu send Yorubas?
Stop letting them paid miscreants confuse you, believing you are not one of them.

Martartins:
Somebody has to do the job. It is a social contract we all signed as soon as we were born in Nigeria. So it is in anywhere in the world.
He just needs to find his purpose for joining the army in the first place. That should Trump anything else

Trump? The story is completely different in Trump's US Army. Their sacrifice's worth is well compensated.

yarimo:
Immediately Peter obi decamp to ADC, the party became online political party

You mean, Immediately Peter obi decamp to ADC, the party became a major target of the ruling party.

damoobaba:
Then continue in your POVERTY DELUSION

You will continue in your POVERTY DELUSION because your president is a disgrace?

There's no pity for anyone who takes these thieves seriously, they will surely end up in tears.

Aggression dey kill ooo. You better start living and let the government be. Life is too short when u believes u can't be successful because of bad government

And let the criminals be, you mean.

TimeManager:
Basic macroeconomics, CBN is duty bound to mop up excess liquidity in the system to avoid driving up inflation in the long term. Whenever there's too much local or foreign currency in the hands of people beyond regulatory requirements, the CBN steps in. Failure to do that in the past led us to where we were a few years ago.
If CBN had looked away, the dollar would fall for the first few weeks and then start rising because people would have horded it and look to sell at higher rate when scarcity hits the market thereby leading to market instability.
The best bet is to allow the right amount of money within the system at a particular time inorder to ensure stability and stronger local currency.

-Kiss the truth!

Good Time Manager, Time to mop heavy amount before the tissue paper naira sinks back down as it's bound to. For those who know.

- Kiss the truth!

yarimo:
Humans shouldn't be taken RUFAI oseni serious, oseni that supposed to be in the forest doing documentary on animals

Don't mind the Bayo guy who takes Rufai seriously despite his animals credentials. Rufai's been making Bayo's job so difficult for him.

garykoeman:
Rufai oseni became mob celebrity by following one-ways traffic 🚦⛔.

People like oseni are hypocritical human.

Don't mind that stiff necked Oseni.
Slave to his conscience, too difficult to bribe or sway.

FROM LAGOS STATE GOVERNOR 👇

Poverty: Sanwo-Olu Factually Addresses Peter Obi’s Criticism of Nigeria at Johns Hopkins University


On Thursday, April 24, 2025, former Governor Peter Obi, the Labour Party presidential candidate for the 2023 election, was at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, where he made several disparaging comments about Nigeria.

He made the unflattering remarks not just about the incumbent Nigerian government, but also about Nigeria.

I also find Mr. Obi's pattern of behaviour disturbing. When prominent Nigerians go overseas, they ought to project Nigeria positively. They do not have to do that for the government. But we all owe a duty to market Nigeria on the global stage rather than de-market her. That is what true patriotism is about.

Because Mr. Obi focused on poverty and said that the current administration's policies are making Nigerians poorer, I will concentrate on that.

Any leader can fight poverty generationally by promoting education, improving healthcare, providing credit, and granting access to land.

Now, I find it somewhat ironic that a man like Mr. Obi, who did not build a single school or a stand-alone hospital throughout his eight-year tenure as Governor of Anambra or sustainably provide credit facilities, would criticise the Government of Nigeria, which is actively doing that.

I say this because the President of Nigeria, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is my predecessor, and as Governor of Lagos and now President of Nigeria, has built over 200 schools and provided student loans to more than 200,000 undergraduates of Nigerian tertiary institutions.

In less than two years, he has provided over half a billion dollars in credit facilities to small and medium-scale enterprises.

While he was Governor of Lagos State between 1999 and 2007, the President reduced poverty by more than 46%. There is every reason to believe that, based on what he did as Governor of Lagos, he will repeat the same feat at the federal level. After all, the best predictor of the future is the past.

But let us examine the messenger, not just the message, and look at the issuer as well as the issues.

Mr. Obi talks a good game. But was he able to reduce poverty while he governed Anambra? Perhaps we can let the facts speak for themselves.

Under Peter Obi as a two term Anambra Governor, poverty in Anambra increased. It did not reduce. Before Peter Obi became Anambra Governor on Thursday, June 14, 2007, the poverty rate in Anambra was 41.4%.

But after only two years in office, the poverty rate in Anambra jumped to 53.7%.

But the interesting thing is that five years after Peter Obi left office, his successor, Willie Obiano, reduced the poverty rate in Anambra from almost 60% to 14.8%.

As such, I am not sure that Mr. Obi is morally well placed to make the alarming claims he made about Nigeria at Johns Hopkins.

Mr. Obi contributed to the increase in poverty in Nigeria. Governor Tinubu, as he then was, was responsible for lifting millions out of poverty.

Being that that is the case, who should criticise who?


Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu is the Governor of Lagos State.

Stop the wasteful epistle. Dude can't be tainted. You know your president is a disgrace.

damoobaba:
Obi was a COMFIRMED disaster in Anambra, INCREASING POVERTY RATE TO 54%. Who will vote that rubb!5h.

This guy, you better stop posting all this nonsense, it's not working. Are you trying to say you don't know your impostor president is a disgrace?

Clemss88:
reason why the naira is gaining strength and yet some people are happy praising Mr president

Their ignorance can be a blessing to those who know.

Bluearrow:
The rate at which naira is appreciating is really speedy. This is not a good time to hold dollar, with this rate, naira can break 1k support.

The rate Naira will fall back down can break your heart. Tread with caution.

jamafa:
Obi has done more bad to good in Anambra

He one con spoil Nigeria??

The dirt you want on Obi is better suited for the impostor in Aso Rock. Grow some balls and direct them to him.

KIDfurniture:
If this is true ! Don’t forget that old thing can go to bed and not wake the next day. They had better start scouting for a look like fast. Not wishing an evil man dead o. The day the gods call that man - tinubu dynasty is over forever.

Little brains, will they ever know?

damoobaba:
Its the problem with you children of losers. You transfer the failings of your parents on every President. If you had a thriving family business to handle, you'll not be here complaining about glaring efforts to move THE COUNTRY FORWARD.

Dragging "your parents" changes nothing. That sick old impostor is a disgrace.

Image123:
Senate makes laws, so they must try to make responsible and sensible laws, not laws that have loopholes and chaos.
There should be room and contingency plan for options and ifs.

Such as non transparency and manipulations.
The audience are babies and do they believe 100 percent.

DeltaBachelor:
Okay. Cool. They should please back this statement up with action o. Abeg !

Better you doubt them and they prove you wrong, than believe and they prove you wrong.

You can't say that no body told you, last year.

OgogoroFreak:
Altcoin people, all your money will turn to dust!

When the market picks again, the coin you are hodling may struggle to pump because narrative would have been shifted to some set of shinning new altcoins.

Then after you sell and jump into those new altcoin, we will repeat the circle again.

You know with your ogogoro name, many ignore your experience and think you might be drunk when you speak, but events prove you right all the same.
