I like that he is not telling lies to Nigerians on this. E dun see say una go still vote am once e give una small rice n vegetable oil

nairalee:
You've made very good points. Abati insists that the questions weren't vetted before the media chat. I'm not even asking them to ridicule or embarrass the president. I only expected tougher questions such as

"sir give a time frame for your policies to yield result so that we can measure the extent of it's effectiveness"

"sir these end of the year giveaways is a yearly thing but don't you think for this year to have experienced three stampedes already is a testiment that the economy is worse than before?"

"sir,. X ministry has been worse off under the current X minister as statistics show that this is the first time the ministry is performing so poorly in the past Z years"

Some of these can be stated diplomatically but still driving home the point.

Sadly the presidency will measure Abati's competence for future and bigger engagement by his ability to create a comfortable atmosphere for the president to engage and speak longer. His employer will also rate him as someone with exceptional ability to engage a high profile person and make them talk. The media is for sale in Nigeria.
Abati or any media person u see on that kind of media chat will not ask Tinubu those sensible questions u mentioned. Tinubu is not one to joke with when it comes to media management.

fake collaboration media chat,
nigerians that can plan a rehearse for rubbish

If a lot of people know the pre-event moderation that goes into Presidential media chat in Nigeria, they will slap themselves for spending over an hour of their precious time listening to someone answer questions asked by technically guarded journalists. In presidentiaL media chats in Nigeria, the earlier you know the panel members are like supevised learning models, the better for you. And this isn't about Tinubu alone

DuttyChuks:
Reuben Abati had a chance of using 2by2 plank on him and he lead it slide. I won't make such a mistake

It wasn't a mistake. Don't believe media people yapping on TV. If Nigerians can't vote right, nobody no media no legislator no governor is going to save them by asking d president right questions. Abati is building his career and wont put that on tbe table to "embarrass the presidency with tough questions". Presidency media team n office of chief of staff would have moderated the whole thing before the chat started sef

Why?

1) Some felt he was too arrogant to talk to Nigerians but he did
He has every right to be arrogant, man is serving shege and the people are still hailing him, he must feel invincible
2) Some Nigerians believe he cannot talk without balabluing but he did.

3) Some Nigerians felt he isn't in charge of the running of the country but this showed that he knows the policies he's implementing.

4) The fact that he invited even so called opposition media such as Abati of Arise impressed me
That's not a biggie, Abati is a mere employee of Arise, career advancement first. Arise is a mere business enterprise, Profitability first. it's not like abati has a calling to fight for the people. The little opposition Abati tries to project is because Abati is PDP in nature. The same dirty job adeshina did for buhari and bwala and co are doing for tinubu, abati did it for Jonathan, they are all d same, only that times are different
5) He even challenged the journalists to mention any non performing minister and they all kept mute meaning most of his critics arent bold to say it to his face.

Being a strong critic of Tilumbu I must admit he scored some good points by doing this.
these chats are guided to a large extent. The interviewers will be reviewed n vetted by the president's inhouse media team and given clearance. Issues the president wants to address are pre-discussed to guide the conversation. You'll be surprised that the interviewers get envelopes too, they don't call it bribe, that expense is lumped usually lumped under some bogus headings like media expenses, and this isn't peculiar to Tinubu alone, never trust the media, like the legislators, no conscience. Every one of them is just trying to feed

Media practitioners even lobby to be among the team that will ask questions to boost their personal profile and you know what that means, it puts the president's team in charge about how things should be done, what should be asked, "u embarrass the presidency" it's almost over for you.

he says he will make it sexier to drive tractors Tinubu just dey use una catch cruise

Maresca thinks he is some kind of football god. Cucurella suspended, just do the obvious thing and stop being an unenecessary genius. Replace Cucurella with another Left back, simple as that. Gusto is a right back, he should play as a right back, not left back because u want to create the impression that u can bring out versatility out of the players. Disasi is not good enough, Gusto should have played behind Neto and Veiga behind Sancho, no need to want to be too smart.
Maresca is a drama queen

if ur dream is to build your finances and asset and income BUT u found a wife whose dream and goal is baecation and vacay to malay and maldives and seychelles and cappadocia and things, to visit all the countries of the world on vacation......oga u have not found a good thing o, u have found a way to kill ur dreams
if una dreams align, yes you may have found a good thing

Marriage to a reasonable woman will help you focus on the things that matter. 2 of you can have talks about progress financially, asset growth etc 2 of u can put resources together to start a business venture that will increase income for the family. Assurance of an alternative income from your spouse can increase your risk appetite which can bring financial breakthrough. Its not u signing papers at ikoyi registry or saying i do in ur church or having someone call u husband that will bring the good things.
And these kind of support can also be gotten from partnerships that are not conjugal. So have sense, dont go and carry any woman to marry and say they have told me marriage/women bring success. If una dreams and goals no align, even if she be good person, u no go grow

He must be a thief

Una go still vote the same people in 2027 jare make una no disturb person

Everything dun tire Guardiola.

E go reach to play chelsea now, city go stop this promo

This sounds almost like me but wt different ending

I don't know the ending of your own story, but whatever it is/was, may you flourish and excel in all that you do. May you find the positive mindset to fuel your will power.

This guy's story is a tough one. To experience some form of failure or inadequacy after a period of invincibility is a very tough one in this life. Makes you lose interest in everything, that has led some to substance use and abuse. You may have failed medicine, but YOU WON THE ENDURANCE TEST which is the most important thing in life. You found the strength and courage to keep going and embraced your new reality with grace. You will excel and flourish anywhere you find yourself. Well done!!!

Saudis aren't known for terrorism, probably be an accident.

Yes apart from the deadliest terrorist of all time, Osama bin laden, who is from Saudi Arabia

Global2000:
It's disastrous. It's only a beast not a human with flesh and blood could do a such. Its heart sickening. Religion could be bad atimes.

Religion has done more harm than good to the society, especially the religion that teaches its followers to kill on behalf of their god.

AntiChristian:
It may be a mistake o but they will give it some kind of religious coloration!

The stampede in Ibadan too was caused by one Saudi man from Oyo State!

Driving 400meters into people is a mistake? How do you sleep at night

DynamicWriter:
Probably a result of being drunk. Because no one in his sane mind will intentionally drive through a lot of crowd.

In this festive season, please avoid over drinking if you are using the steering. Not just for the sake of your family but for the innocent victims.

Merry Christmas ⛄🎁💝🎅

If una like make una vote am 2031 and 2035 sef..wahala gbogbo yin niyen

if the count Nigeria's problem and the total is 100, northerners na like 95 of those problems

u no give them education, u no tell them go to school its on me, learn tailoring its on me, learn hairdressing its on me, learn skill its on me...u married them off and supported their arranged husbands with 50k(32 dollars) nitori olorun

the 150k u paid for their dowry of 100girls, why not carry the 15million naira, bring some people to train them, in tailoring, catering, hairdressing, whatever

CyrusVI:
Are you for real? or you just wanna criticize things in your myopic way

Do you know how much they pay their Entry level staff?(Executive Trainee)
Do you know what their annual profit in the last two years?

Do you also know they increased their staffs salary not to long ago?


Bro, stick to that politics section abeg, you dont know that much

are these the things that make them functional to the larger society...what % of their lending portfolio goes to small and medium scale businesses or u just want them to increase their staff salary and lend money to importers of PMS and people that want to go on vacation abroad to patronize foreign goods and services, and spend some on end of year party to invite davido and burna boy.
ANd the staff salary u are even celebrating, a branch of 20 15 staff, 3 GTB staff, the rest on contract with rubbish as salary, u people just like celebrating your oppressors

Guys everything is not fraud, money laundering....spotify pays 0.004$ per stream. Some of these guys have real estate portfolio, some of them have crypto investments, some of them have stocks, they still make money from shows no matter how small, zlatan has a clothing label and dont think it is people that earn 70k minimum wage he is selling to.
If you like dont invest when u have money. U think because they are smoking weed up and down, they dont have sense, they dont know what to do with money.
GenZ are all over the place wasting their lives consuming content, whether music, comedy, movie....if u have content to sell online, u will not doubt some of these things
