What D’Tigress is enjoying now is what the super falcons enjoyed when Randy Waldrum was in charge.

phoenix45 thinks I'm going to spend time going back and forth with him (and derail my thread). Won't happen. I'll just block him.

phoenix45:
You are simply livimg on self denial and delusion.

🤣 No meaningful contribution to the thread.

No matter what any government official says, no matter whatever promises they make, we will never have 24 hours power until this ridiculous subsidy is removed and people pay the correct price for electricity.

You cannot create electricity with magic, it costs money.

ChiefOloye:
You keep spamming nairaland.com with this trash—what exactly are your intentions?

Old boy, you are simply wasting your time. I know that your aim is simply to silence me, it's not about Dawisu. I'm not the only person that has created home page threads about Dawisu, moderators have also done so.

Now to your main aim, you can't silence me, no matter what you do and your struggles to do so are a great source of entertainment for me.

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.

(He often criticised President Buhari for not finishing his projects in the north. He said that a southern president would abandon the projects)

helinues:
Boss, block all of those who used to derail your threads. They can never change. They have been doing that for years,

I've already blocked them. They decided in their whatsapp groups (months ago) that they should come for me and I'm very ready for them.

Anyone that believes that I am going to join them to derail my thread is deceiving himself. This thread is about education. Go and create a separate thread if you want to talk about something else.

Anyway, children in Lagos State public schools will reap the benefits and nothing they say will stop that.

It'll be bad if it is a politician, political party, ethnic group, religion that they don't like and it'll be good if it is a political party, politician, ethnic group or religion that they like.

They kmow that they will be th first to complain about poor state of education if government ignores education in order to focus on electricity.

These complaints are simply about politics and points scoring, they are not about the welfare of people.

MarketDispatch:

It is a good development. But it is putting the Cart before the Horse. Where is the constant uninterrupted electricity in public primary and secondary Schools to power all their digital equipment?

Everything is and will be putting the cart before the horse. In fact, government should not do anything because everything is putting the cart before the horse.

Why work on electricity when there's security.

Why work on security when there's healthcare?

Why work on healthcare when there's education?

Everything is putting the cart before the horse for someone that is just looking for any reason to bring negativity to a good thing.
.
Government has departments for a reason. The Ministry of Education is not responsible for electricity..

The Ministry of Power is not responsible for security.

Governments can fart and chew gum.

But I know that the goal is just to derail the thread.
