PoliticsRe: Petrol May Sell For ₦‎600 Per Litre With Dangote Refinery – Marketers by Minjim: 8:18am On Aug 13, 2024
This is not good enough.
If NNPC station can sell for #580 when they import it. Dangote must do better.
PoliticsRe: Dangote Refinery Insists Petrol Will Hit Local Market In August by Minjim:
If Tinubu has any brain at all, he should call a meeting of the executives at NNPC and give them a stern directive, " I want diesel = #500, petrol = #300, kerosene =300, cooking gas= 300/kg.
Support and Work with all local refineries to deliver this before the end of 2024 or you lose your jobs.
Those people are just seating comfortable there doing nothing and making things worst with no one to quarry them.
If they say it's not possible. He should ask for their resignation ASAP and bring in new bloods that can deliver.

Only this can turn things around not giving palliative to Governors and APC members

Maiduguri! Isn't that the BH headquarters. I would have come there myself to buy those beans as a bag in lagos is over 150k right now.
If I buy 50 bags and sell for 100k it won't take a week before I sell everything.

Best I'll just find some boys to sell at 1k /derica at junctions. The whole thing will be bought out in a week.

Mr. Tony, I have decided NEVER to vote again in Nigeria, after the brazen display of shameful favouritsm by the corrupt inec and the sell-out judicial body in the country.

But with someone like you in the picture, I may reconsider my decision perhaps.
But again, you must watch your back against all those old corrupt DRAGONS. Very important.
He won't contest.

The last time a philanthropist like him contested the election was annulled and the man killed.

Zionmdde:
I just hope everybody will learn to mind their business
Nobody is being deceived. His members know exactly what they are doing and even social media will not sway them. A lot of times people tend to stick where they can get hope. Because minus that hope that pastors and prophets give (fake or original) a lot of persons would have been dead by now.

He should be allowed to sell his goods in peace. Let those that buy it decide for themselves if it works or not. Afterall he is not putting gun to anybody head to buy

Keep quoting me. I am very unapologetic on what I said. Those adults in his church choose to be there and consume his products. In the eyes of the law you can't also prove the originality of anything termed "spiritual ". Because you can't also prove that you have fulfilled the terms of engagement

So in simple terms you can't cry more than the bereaved. If people feel happy going there let them continue.
The pastor ought to have confined the sale to only his church members.
How was VDM able to get hold of it?

The quality of a good leader is to admit his errors and take responsibility.

There is supposed to be a measure in place before subsidy removal to cushion the negative effect on the economy. Nothing was put in place by past and current FG.

SportsNigeria’s Echikunwoke Wins Hammer Silver For USA by Minjim(op): 3:51am On Aug 07, 2024
Former Nigerian hammer thrower Annette Echikunwoke has won an Olympic medal for the United States in women’s hammer throw.

On her first ever outing at the Olympics, Echikunwoke threw a season’s best of 75.48 m to win silver.

She finished behind Canada’s Camryn Rodgers, who threw 76.79m to win gold, while China’s Jie Zhao was third with a throw of 74.27m.

The 28-year-old visited Nigeria for the first time in 2021 after opting to represent the country in 2020. She competed at the Nigerian Olympic Trials and holds both the Nigerian and African records in the hammer with a mark of 75.49 m.

After being disqualified from competing at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics for missing out on competition tests, she opted to switch back allegiance to the United States.

In 2021, the Athletics Federation of Nigeria said many of the US-based athletes, including Echikunwoke, failed to disclose their whereabouts as requested for dope tests to be carried out.

In an interview with The PUNCH, Echikunwoke accused the AFN of being negligent, which she insisted led to their disqualification from the Olympics.

“That’s an absolute lie. Any time I was asked to disclose my whereabouts information, I gave it as soon as possible. I have the receipts. It’s the federation’s job to then set up testing once I give that information, and they never did.

“I gave my whereabouts about six or more times, and nothing came out of it. Even when they were asking for my address, they didn’t tell me the reason why; they would just say it’s ‘urgent’ and that I needed to do testing, but never explain the full situation or the severity of the situation,” Echikunwoke told The PUNCH.https://punchng.com/ogazi-poised-for-400m-medal-after-breaking-36-year-jinx/?utm_source=telegram&utm_medium=social

I really don't understand the kind of politics the Northerners like to play by destroying their own region just because they are dissatisfied with the government.

There are so many ways to express themselves which won't involved any destruction.

Boko Haram, Bandits, killer herdsmen destructions are still there, now they want to add protest destructions which wont even change a thing.

If you destroy your own land, na same people people destroying it would suffer it, not the government, not the policians.

Fishes are not found on top of mountains oo
This as a result of year's of neglect.
Northern youths have been deprived of everything humanly possible for so long that they don't know what they want again.

PoliticsRe: Protest: There Is Hunger In Nigeria, Take Action – Gov Fintiri Tells Tinubu by Minjim: 7:52am On Aug 05, 2024
vanbonattel:
There has always been hunger in Nigeria. Get busy, get productive, support the right candidates and not drug baron.
There is hunger all over the world even in developed countries. What we have is upsurge inflation where there is already hunger because of bad policies of the FG.
All what he's doing now are after thoughts.
Before you start building a house you need to first lay the foundation. To cushion the weight of the building.
What Tinubu did what fell into Buhari's trap by started building from the roof, now he wants to build the foundation - how possible is that. Protesters are tell him to go back to building the foundation first.

franchasng:
Mr Governor he said he has released 30 trillion for the akant cheesy Make una manage that one for now, he is building coastal highway from Lagos to Calabar, Badagry to Sokoto so that Nigerians can start fishing business on the coast line in order to end hunger in Nigeria, so make una exercise patience Tinubu is working invincibly wink
People said they are hungry you said you are putting in place infrastructures. You saw what hungry people did to infrastructure in Kano, that's what will keep happening when you don't put first things first. Food is priority.

Salewa97:
Tinubu is already aware of the hunger issues and is working tirelessly to address them. The fact that protests are peaceful shows that Nigerians are committed to dialogue, not chaos. With his leadership, I believe positive changes are on the horizon. Let's support him as he navigates these challenges for a better Nigeria!
Protest are peaceful only in the south. The hungrier the people the angrier. That's what happened in the North.
This FG has nothing to offer. Same Tinubu told us to be patient for 8 years of Buhari. This is the same APC with same manifesto and even Tinubu himself said he will continue from where Buhari stopped. What we except to hear and see now is timeline of when positive things will start happening. We can't be patient without knowing for how long.
That's silly
PoliticsRe: FG Hasn’t Fulfilled CNG Buses Conversion Promise – NURTW by Minjim: 7:30am On Aug 05, 2024
Patient for how long?

This is what I don't want to hear.
We were told to be patient for APC ( that the party just came into power after year's of PDP decay) all thru the 8 years of Buhari now another APC is in power we should still continue with the patient.
Haba, are you people speaking to children?
Since the party has a manifesto is Tinubu not just continuing from where Buhari stopped ( at least that's what he said ) So which patient are you talking about?
Nigerians have been patient enough. Right now we need concrete comments like by next month so and so will be in place to cushion the people's suffering.
That was what I expected to hear yesterday. That the FG had supplied so and so tonnes of crude to local refineries which will drastically bring down the pump price. That certainly support has been given to farmers and by next year FG will put further support and supervision to monitor the distribution of food stuffs to marketers who will sell at subsidised rates.

When people hear something like these they will know how long they have to be patient.
But when don't give any timeline, you just say, " be patient."
It means you're lying.
This CNG thing they are speaking of, they should give us a timeline of short and long-term achievement. We need to hear specific details from his Ministers now. All of them are just quiet like there's no issue on ground.
Do they even know their work at all?



Salewa97:
The FG is making strides with the CNG initiative, and it's crucial to give them some time to iron out the kinks. Transitioning an entire transportation system isn't a walk in the park! 5,500 CNG buses and tricycles are on the way, which shows commitment to a greener future. Let’s keep the faith and support this vital change for our economy and environment!

Dele Momodu should recognize that leadership isn't always about yielding to every demand. Tinubu's track record speaks volumes; he’s always focused on long-term solutions. The strength of his governance approach has proven effective in Lagos, and we can trust he’ll navigate these challenges with the same resolve. Patience is key.
The demand of all of Nigeria is not every demand.
You Tinubu E-rats are shameless.

What has proven effective in Lagos?

If you look around in Lagos the infrastructure on the ground is not commensurate to the revenue made monthly. If Lagos were poor like Ekiti and we have this infrastructure, then you can say Tinubu has a track record. But Lagos is already rich and anyone can achieve something with it.

The quality of a good leader is the ability to listen, empathise and make compromises.
After all, the money is not his

You didn't tell us what you're specifically doing on the issue of pump price. What should we expect next month, two, three months or next year? What are you doing about refining locally so pump price will be cheaper? These are what we want to hear. What is the projected pump price we should expect?
No short or long-term promise. We should just be patient..
That doesn't cut it for me. I expect more from the President of a nation like Nigeria.

All the measures he spoke about, the efforts don't get to the people.
You keep giving money to state govt. Sanwolu open market for only three weeks and they stopped. Was it that the money coming from the FG stopped?

So many things left unsaid. I'm really sad that this protest has lost momentum. I hope we get it back tomorrow. Cos if it dies like this. This FG won't do a damn thing .
