How can people who have not finished learning their ABCs expect me to hold high level discussions with them? Do they even understand what subsidy means?

SeverusSnape:
Elder Naptu, he asked you a simple question and you're here foaming in the mouth. What has your balablue saviour done with the funds gotten as a result of subsidy removal?. Oya start foaming again!.

This one is even hallusinating that he gave me a saviour.

Noblex2011:
See your mouth
What have we benefited from petrol subsidy removal? Price increase or weitin?

This one doesn't even know anything. He should be playing with people that are doing ABC and 123.

We are not going to have 24 hours power until we remove the subsidies. Ministers, governments have been issuing promises for decades, it won't solve anything if there's not enough money to run the sector.

Some APC supporters mocked him for constantly changing parties.

Background

Salihu Tanko Yakasai (Peacock @dawisu) was the special adviser on new media to Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje of Kano. Like his father Tanko Yakasai (who was Shagari's presidential liaison to the National Assembly), he is very outspoken. He doesn't hesitate to speak his mind. This has often gotten him into trouble (just like his father often got into trouble).


He annoyed some Kanawa because he defended his boss, Abdullahi Ganduje during the dollargate scandal.

He also annoyed some Kanawa because of his criticism and mocking of the former Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, when the Emir had problems with Governor Ganduje.


He was suspended from office in October 2020 for criticising President Buhari over the End SARS protest.

He was reinstated a few weeks later.

However, he was sacked in February 2021 and detained by the DSS for criticising President Buhari again and asking him to resign after some school children were kidnapped by bandits.

His father said that his son was just beginning his journey and he stated that he was arrested 10 times. Salihu Tanko Yakasai then joked that he had 9 more arrests to go.

Some activists complained when he was listed as a speaker at the Soro Soke Summit in 2021

Salihu Tanko Yakasai resigned from the APC on March 21, 2022.

He once again called for President Buhari's resignation on March 29th, 2022 after an attack on a train on the Kaduna-Abuja Line.

In May 2022 he declared his intention to run for the governorship of Kano on the platform of the PRP.

And in August 2023 he returned to the APC. He said that the national chairman of the APC, Dr Ganduje, had invited him back to the APC to consolidate on the gains that he has made.

However, in recent months, especially after Ganduje was removed as APC chairman, he has become a big critic of the Bola Tinubu Administration. He claims that the Tinubu Administration only favours southerners and that the north should kick it out of office

He even had a massive exchange with Bashir Ahmad (the former spokesman of President Buhari). He was questioning why Bashir supports a southern government and stating that President Tinubu only caters to the south and that he will lose the north.

Peacock @dawisu.

Following extensive consultations with family, friends, and political associates we have worked closely with over time, we have resolved to move to the ADC as part of a new direction.

I have accordingly tendered my resignation from the APC and completed my registration with our new party, the ADC.

Those who are interested in joining the ADC can conveniently register using their phones via this link: adcregistration.ng. Your membership card will be issued shortly after.

We pray that Allah, in His mercy, makes this decision a good one, grants the ADC the opportunity to form government at all levels, and makee it beneficial for all Nigerians. Ameen.

See people convulsing over nothing. How is this rubbish facts? Same thing they said about BUhari wanting a third term.
It's scary that grown up adults can be easily swayed by unsubstantiated claims.

Nowadays people just manufacture anything in their heads and run with it.
