It is either ethno-religious prejudice against PBAT or lack of knowledge of the most debilitating problems of Nigeria, and the solutions required for them, that makes you incapable of seeing what Tinubu "has done" to more than deserve a second and even third term.

As an empathetic person, I will not pretend things are not tough for ordinary Nigerians. Yet I have seen enough of the world to know how Nigerians should be living which is a million times better than how they have lived since our current democracy began in 1999.

To get ordinary Nigerians even remotely close to the standard of life some African nations are enjoying there has to be fundamental changes, needing reforms and drastic overhaul of governance policies, that will cause some suffering initially but will lead to much better lives and prospect for Nigerians in the near future.

Virtually all nations have gone through the same "sacrifice for better future" phase with many enduring hardship for decades even.

The life you people are asking Nigerians to return to, propped up by subsidies at all levels that only get a people addicted to poverty and comfortable recieving 1% from greedy and callous leaders when they need at least 80%, is not life as the world knows it.

It is not living. At all. It is merely surviving for a people weaponised poverty, through use of various government-funded subsidies, has been used to trick into thinking they ever had good lives to begin with.

Wake up. You are educated. All you had was cheap fuel with horribly inadequate transport option. Whereas many nations in the west have expensive fuel but superb and comfortable transport options available to their people courtesy of doing the right things.

While efficient transport options help those nations grow socio-economically, you in Nigerian, drunk on cheap fuel, sit in traffic for hours, courtesy of poor transport infrastructure and options, that is damaging to our economy's productivity and the ease/efficiency of doing business

You had cheap electricity bill, with many not paying anything at all, that means Nigeria will remain in darkness forever if such continues because not paying enough to re-invest successfully in the very expensive business of power generation, transmission and distribution only guarantees darkness.

Previous government have been sloppy and even disinterested in efficient tax collection. Yet you all want to japa to nation where efficient tax collection, from all those who can afford to pay such, builds world class infrastructure and social services like health care and social intervention with the UK NHS and benefit system being good examples to cite.

Your past Presidents subsidized the value of Naira artificially rather than subject it to gaining it's real comparative value that must only be improved organically via Nigeria working on a strong economy that would give Naira it real purchasing power parity strength which is what is ultimately important for national currencies.

Yet you cannot see that wholesale subsidising of the Naira, that Tinubu decided had to be stopped, mainly benefited Northern bureau de change owners, and their politico-elite bosses gaining massively while all Nigerians with legitimate business, leisure or educational interest abroad could not even get pounds, dollars etal via our official banking system.


Please what sort of nation is that when I cannot buy dollars and pounds comfortably to visit a foreign nation on holiday, when I work hard in Nigeria to deserve it, whereas if I was in the UK and looking to go on holiday to Ibiza I would only need to stroll into any high street bureau de change to buy Euros at a rate that will not be ridiculously different to the British central Bank quoted rate

I could go on all day. Suffice to say they were using you own commonwealth to keep you subdued, with various feel-good subsidies that allowed the politico-elite class to loot mercilessly, live billionaire lifestyle, while Nigerians get crumbs.

I can agree that many ordinary and uneducated Nigerians, facing severe daily challenges, won't get all I have stated above because weaponised poverty has been used to keep them less educated, less knowledgeable, less exposed, less politically sophisticated and less discerning than they need to be.

I concede it is totally understandable they may be mad with the government of PBAT from the limited view of the picture they see.

Yet, what is the excuse of educated people like you who can inspect what I wrote above to verify it as factually correct so that you can see that it is Presidents before Tinubu who actually (1) did not mean well for you or (2) lacked the balls to do what will be in the best medium to long term interest of all Nigerians.

Previous government were simply just 419ing a people they believed they have conquered with weaponised poverty akin to stuffing the mouth of a baby with a dummy to stop it crying.

It is only Tinubu, from all Presidents since 1999, that is addressing the real problems of the baby crying non-stop rather than attempting to distract it with gimmicks and insincere gestures disguised as acts of kindness.

Many hate filled hearts will not understand what you wrote ,but it's actually facts.

WizardOfNG:
You are really an incredible human being. I use '"incredible" because bot will ban me if I use the words that describe what I think you are.

How you can be so supportive of Northerners truncating the turn of the South, which is the only period Nigeria can gain progressive reforms that will move her towards developed nation status, speaks volumes about you as a person.

Because he's a northerner.

Brendaniel:
Well, the north is learning the hard way, they let themselves get deceived by the southwest instead of listening to the Igbos, one major reason it took so long for them to realize Igbos have always told them the truth even before independence is the difference between OBJ and Tinubu, a lot of people may not understand but if you do, kudos to you...

"Listen to the igbos" like they did in 1966 that got all their leaders killed by the same igbos abi?Truth it will be difficult for a northern muslim to trust an igbo man politicaly.

enoks:
You people with Zero knowledge will just write nonsense as if you had knowledge of it. It will do you well to stop misleading people. Russia has Zero Submarines pointed at the US.

You that's knowledgable ,are submarines stationary military weapons?

[quote author=esnbrutality post=136232067]When a Southerner Goodluck Jonathan was President, who rallied opposition against him, when the North were projecting BUHARI? It was the SW.!! Then the mention of Southern Unity..was irrelevant abi?

Now the same North is behind Atiku and you are looking for useless Southern Unity after your TINUBU has alienated everybody from the same South?

Do you think that people are blind to your shenanigans?

Yoruba Man, just support your TINUBU in peace and don't think your southern UNITY banter holds any meaning.

The only thing I support in your long epistle is that NIGERIA should disintegrate.

Apart from that your region doesn't speak for other southern regions.



[/quot

And you also can not speak for other southerners.

43Ronin:
Anybody who contributes to his society and is a Nigerian deserves to hold political office in Lagos. Lagos is cosmopolitan,its for all of us. Its our taxes

Let it starts in the east other states will follow.

Softmirror:
Provide evidence to this claim of your's. Because I see no reason why the government is able to provide for NYSC corp members and won't be able to provide for the military.

Secondly there is a region in this country that has chosen not to be part of the Nigerian military deliberately. In the future, they will reap the fruit of their choice.

Be pretending as if you don't know he's saying what you already know.If you still doubt what he's saying type EX-MAN on youtube,maybe you will understand.

dahmie2013:
Nice one. This 2027 will be interesting, may God spare my life. Isa Pantami, this man is very brilliant, I listened to him & I was in awe of the things he spoke about. Awesome man...

Fulani we know your type,brilliance in trading our infos to his jihadist brothers .

EnglandAmaka:
They will soon decamp or be in Apc to cause havoc. If wike can do it then anyone else can

Don't put all your eggs in one basket.If ADC lose what now happens?

iwaeda:
All we know is Tinubu is OTP, All these noises are nothing but moving train.

And all we know is that Tinubu is not a jonathan be ready for the royal rumble

highchief1:
ur calculations shows that u don’t know what politics is all about.in 2023,how many governors could win their states?Why do u think a Govs defection mean he has won the state.

Na you no know politics.Who's going to count the votes or announce the results?the voters?you?or the appointed rec? Who appoints the rec and supervises? Dey display ignorance.

iwaeda:
Nlfpmod, may God save this country from wicked people, who sees politics as end to all things. To them blood of human beings worthless as long as their criminal leaders are ruling and wasting lives.
Forgetting, we are nothing, but mere DUST.

And save tribalists like you from yourself.

Smartcitizen:
In coming years, this same thing will be played in LAGOS state and we from south south will clap for the northern president and also remember you people of a time like this.


Remember we are in Nigeria.


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You lie,ss people no dey play politics of bitterness,speak for yourself and leave other ss regions and individual alone.

iwaeda:
Fubara will be the guinea pig. Tinubu doesn't mind if everyone get killed, as long as he gets his greed satisfy. He has a maniac in Wike. He will be shocked. Tinubu is OTP, Coalition are really pulling strong strings.

No be only strings,na catapult coalition go pull.

LagosOrigin:
Lies

Tinubu was one of the people that made sure abiola didn't become president . Abiola son confirmed it .

What you wrote and posted shows you have comprehesion problem.
Why did he name Tinubu? Hatred will ruin your life.

Dogalmighty17:
200 people were killed in Benue state. Northern Governors forum couldn't find their voice. The particular community this incident happened has been subject to Fulani attacks for a long time. Neither the Nigerian army nor any security outfit bothered to come to their aid.

Now that community decided enough is enough and laid hands on who they could find. This turned out to be these travellers. Within minutes, a team of Nigerian army soldiers showed up and that's why some survived.

The question here is, are some lives more valuable than others? Why haven't the northern Governors condemned what happened in Benue state but can quickly find their voice in this case? Why was the army quick to respond here but not in Yelwata Benue state?

We may not want to accept it but the next civil war has gradually begun.

P:S. I know nairaland will soon delete this comment.

As per the next civil war,we know the enemy.
Hope when full retaliations starts across the nation we will not hear geno.ci.d.e being commited against a certain people.

Basic123:
If you like kill yourselves to stupor to make political statement.


Power is not coming to the North in 2027.


Is either TINUBU continue or PETER OBI takes over.


ANIMALS!

This is what i want from all southerners,either obi take over from tinubu or Tinubu continues,north cannot be spoiling the country cos they are not in power and we keep mute.

Seunpapa65:

2special:
Dey whine us you hear
.. you already know the answer
The V.P lost it when he didn't support the tax reforms, he was backing the Northern Elders.

If as a president your vice is against your reform ,instead supporting his ethnic group against you ,then you should know that he's just a mole planted to undermine your work.He has to be replace.

christejames:
It was just a huge show of shame by the president and his entourage

If he did not attend you people will still say he was insentitive to the victims.
Your hatred is really affecting your sense of reasoning.

pansophist:
My bet is on C, the gorilla. Lion should not be in that list, just replace it with Tiger

The gorilla will be the first to die followed by the lion

PresidObi:
Hate has finished your jagabanditts lifestyle

The roads in my village doesn't have a motor park, and it goes all the way to my farm and house, school, hospital and everywhere. The roads in the foreign country I live also doesn't have a motor park, I repeat again only agbero government dey build motor parks you bulabla crooner

Touting is bad, it destroys lives.

Actually you are the one filled with hate,always quick to castigate even when what was done is worthy of celebration and you leave out your people even when they did wrong.

Ddeliverer007:
The entire north will come together and support Peter Obi.

Tinubu has seen the handwriting on the wall, that’s why he is attempting to borrow as much money as he can. So that he can run to Lagos with it after 2027.

Any money stolen by the administration must be paid to the last kobo. You will vomit every single penny by the time Obi becomes president come 2027…

Let all the former presidents pay all what they borrowed before you talk about the current preaident....Obidient

JAWBONE:
The tribalism and bigotry is so bad under Tinubu that it prompted a BBC article.

They will soon send their attacks dogs to "debunk" it

Nothing to debunk,where was BBC or the writer when Buhari was fulanizing all the position to favour the north mostly of fulani tribe?
