Where is she getting these monies that she is doling out? Mrs Tinubu, you need to explain to us! SixSeven:
I am surprised people are overlooking something she said in that interview.
"So we've encouraged Nigerians as best as we could. What is within our hands, I have given, and I keep giving.
"I remember giving for TB. When I heard there were so many TB cases, I gave N2 billion. To breast cancer, I gave a billion. For food malnutrition, I gave half a billion."
I, we. They want to turn us to a charity case. What a shame. Before her husband's inauguration in May 2023, Remi Tinubu stated that her family did not require Nigeria's wealth to survive, emphasizing that they are already blessed. She pledged to use her position to guide the nation onto the correct path and promised that they would do the right thing with the country's resources.
For a former Senator not to know that there are specific institutions to do what she is talking about, I now forgive Aisha Buhari who channeled her frustration to the right quarters. Madam, there are budget allocations for these things. It means you are not on top of your game if you have to fund the country with your charity when there is a government. Shame again. |

You will continue to support evil until you are drowned by it. This government is nothing but complete evil. All the policies this crop of thieves criticised during campaigns they have now implemented. These people protested when Goodluck Jonathan attempted to remove the subsidy. But that was the very first thing this demon in Aso Rock removed. They criticised cashless policy of Emefiele. Now they are mulling over whether to implement it. APC is the worst. 9jatriot:
Cashless policy in itself was not bad, but the way Emefiele in conjunction with Malaimi went about it was the problem.
We really have our former friend El Rufai to thank for how he fought for the thing to be removed. Rather unfortunate, he decided to turn against the administration.
Obi however, will be remembered for hoping that the sufferings of Nigerians in not being able to access their case will be to his benefit at the polls.
God shame bad people. |

| Politics › Re: Nasarawa Youths Destroy Tinubu Campaign Truck (Video) by nightsaint(m): 8:44pm On Jun 19 |
Making excuses for the failures of this government is indeed comical. Putinofrussia:
Tinubu will easily win with a landslide in 2027.
Apart from the legacy insecurity and high cost of living which is global,Tinubu has performed creditably well more than all previous govts but he should sit up and fix the worsening security situation.
On the other hand,these are people and reasons why Tinubu will win again...
1.Pensioners' health subsidy and free maternal services.....Most pensioners and their families will vote for Tinubu including the women who wouldn't want the free maternal services to stop.
2.Dialysis health subsidy....Most dialysis patients families will vote for Tinubu.
3.Nelfund beneficiaries up to 1,388,592 students as of April,2026........Both the existing beneficiaries and the ones about to come into the universities and their families will vote for Tinubu.
4.Free technical colleges with free feeding and #22,500 monthly free money....The parents of these young students will vote for Tinubu.
There are still many more but these are the major programs Nigerian masses will not want another clueless govt to stop because no other govt in the history of Nigeria has given Nigerians these laudable gifts.
Now for the 'failures'...
Insecurity....This is a legacy problem initiated by Northerners and still been facilitated by them.
No President can stop it unless the people especially the Northerners support and agree to sheath their swords.
It is decades long problem that continues to grow and grow even if it subsides a little,it grows again because it is supported by some Northerners in the govts of Obasanjo,Yaradua,Jonathan,Buhari and now Tinubu.
It has religious,ethnical,political and parochial roots.
Unfortunately,some foreign terrorists have joined the fray.
It doesn't have just a military solution but a live and let live solutions that include negotiations et al.
Gun violence in America takes thousands of life every year but no American President has been able to stop it because it is perpetrated by Americans.
Out of 2 evils,,sometimes you take the lesser one in order for life to continue..
Israel couldn't defeat Hamas,Hezbolah,Houthies even by killing100 thousands of their people.
Israel will just continue to fight for eternity because those people's children will continue to fight Israel.
The Crusaders were never obliterated,they took power in some nations and got assimilated.USA and its allies never obliterated ISIS,they were scattered into other nations like Nigeria,Mali etc and their leader still became the President of Syria.So also was Taliban etc.
If anybody will stop this carnage,Tinubu will but he will take some steps that some people will not like and will cost him his second term and without second term,you can't solve the problem.
If you want to talk about cost of living,it is all over the world but Nigeria felt it more because of the removal of subsidy which was sinking Nigeria.
Bag of rice went over #100,000,beans was #2,400 per Derica and so on.
It is not enough but things have come down a little while some are still up.
The greatest and unparalleled achievement of Tinubu are the unheard in Nigeria massive projects he is executing all over Nigeria.
No sane person will want all of these to stop.
None of the Presidential candidates has what it takes to govern Nigeria like Tinubu going by their antecedents. |

Kpomo processed with car tyres did not make this list? Does that mean it is safe to consume? Qwikkie:
No, seriously. Sit down for this one.
We've all heard the word cancer thrown around so much that we've somehow become numb to it. We think it's something that just… happens. Like bad luck. Like it falls from the sky and lands on some people and skips others.
But what if I told you that what's sitting in your kitchen right now could be part of the problem?
Cancer rarely shows up overnight. It builds. Quietly. Slowly. Meal by meal, day by day, while you're going about your life completely unbothered.
Now let's talk about the two biggest culprits.
First: processed meats. Your sausages. Your hot dogs. That canned corned beef you've been eating since childhood. The smoked fish. The lunch meat you throw in your sandwich every morning without thinking twice.
The World Health Organization, not a blogger, not a conspiracy theorist, the actual World Health Organization, has classified processed meats as Group 1 Carcinogens.
You know what else is in Group 1? Cigarettes.
Group 1 means the evidence isn't shaky. It's not a theory. There is sufficient proof that these foods cause colorectal cancer. They didn't whisper it. They published it.
Then there's the canned food situation. not ALL canned food. Don't come for us. But this what you need to know:
Many cans are lined with a chemical called Bisphenol-A, or BPA. And when that chemical, especially under heat starts leaching into your food, it doesn't announce itself. It just quietly enters your body and over time, raises your cancer risk.
You can't see it. You can't taste it. That's what makes it dangerous.
So what do you do?
The WHO isn't telling you to live on vegetables and air. But they ARE saying, reduce your intake. Be intentional. Read your labels. Know what you're actually eating.
Because your most frequent habits become your health outcomes.
That thing you eat every day? That thing you've normalised? That's the thing worth questioning.
You don't have to change everything at once. But you have to start somewhere and that somewhere is awareness.
Share this with someone who needs to see it. Because caring about people means telling them the truth, even when it's uncomfortable. |

I wrote this today. Other are already contributing too
What Practical Steps Should Southwest States Take Against Banditry and Terrorism?
https://www.nairaland.com/8685199/what-practical-steps-should-southwest
Please, make your suggestion also on that thread. An authorised person may be reading this too and your contributions will be of help
For me
1. Establish a Comprehensive Resident Identity System
The Each State Government should develop a comprehensive resident identity and address verification system to improve security, planning, and service delivery. Every resident should be encouraged to register through a centralized database linked to verified residential addresses. This system will assist law enforcement agencies in identifying criminal elements, tracking suspicious activities, and improving emergency response capabilities while respecting constitutional rights and privacy protections.
2. Registration and Regulation of Herders
All herders operating within Each State should be required to register with the State Government and the relevant Local Government Authorities before engaging in grazing or livestock activities. Registration should include biometric identification, location of operation, livestock records, and compliance with state regulations. This measure will promote accountability, reduce farmer-herder conflicts, and help security agencies identify unauthorized or suspicious activities.
3. Monitoring and Prevention of Violent Extremism
The government should strengthen collaboration between security agencies, community leaders, and religious organizations to identify and prevent violent extremism. Authorities should monitor and investigate individuals or organizations suspected of supporting terrorism, radicalization, or violent activities, regardless of religious affiliation. Any person found to be promoting or financing terrorism should face prosecution in accordance with Nigerian law.
4. Promote Agricultural Self-Sufficiency
Each Southwest State should invest heavily in agriculture to enhance food security and create employment opportunities. Government support should include access to improved seedlings, mechanized farming, irrigation systems, agricultural training, storage facilities, and access to markets. Increased agricultural productivity will reduce economic vulnerabilities and strengthen rural communities.
5. Develop a Community and Neighbourhood Intelligence Network
A structured neighbourhood intelligence network should be established across communities in each state State. Residents, community leaders, traditional institutions, and security agencies should work together to identify emerging security threats and share relevant information. Such a system should operate within legal frameworks and emphasize the protection of citizens' rights.
6. Eliminate Illegal Settlements in Deep Forest Areas
The government should conduct a comprehensive survey of forest reserves and remote settlements. Unauthorized settlements established in deep forests, particularly those linked to criminal activities, should be dismantled through lawful procedures. Forest reserves should be regularly monitored and patrolled to prevent their use as safe havens for kidnappers, bandits, terrorists, and other criminal groups.
7. Swift Prosecution of Serious Crimes
The State Government should strengthen collaboration with the judiciary and security agencies to ensure the swift investigation and prosecution of kidnapping, terrorism, banditry, illegal arms trafficking, and organized crime. Fast-track procedures should be considered for cases involving serious threats to public safety while ensuring due process and fair trials.
8. Establish Formal Reporting Channels for Suspicious Activities
Multiple reporting channels should be created to enable citizens to report suspicious activities safely and confidentially. These channels may include dedicated hotlines, mobile applications, community liaison officers, and local security committees. Public awareness campaigns should educate citizens on how and when to report security concerns.
9. Promote Civic Education and Constitutional Values
Schools across each State should strengthen civic education programs that teach constitutional rights, responsibilities of citizenship, peaceful coexistence, tolerance, and respect for the rule of law. Young people should be equipped with the knowledge and values necessary to contribute positively to society and resist extremist influences.
10. Prosecute Incitement to Violence
The government should adopt a zero-tolerance approach toward incitement to violence, hatred, terrorism, or public disorder. Individuals who promote violence through public speeches, religious gatherings, traditional institutions, political platforms, social media, or any other means should be investigated and prosecuted according to the law, regardless of their status or background.
11. Expand Vocational and Technical Education
Each State should significantly expand vocational and technical education opportunities to equip young people with practical skills for employment and entrepreneurship. Training programs should focus on modern agriculture, information technology, construction, renewable energy, manufacturing, and other high-demand sectors. Empowering youth economically will reduce vulnerability to recruitment by criminal organizations and extremist groups.
