Drop out rate will not increase. What will increase is crime rate, yahoo rate, hookup rate, ritual rate and APC supporters rate.

Good Development,
Slow and Steady we will get to the nation of our dreams,
Removing illegal market structures is pivotal for urban planning and development.
It allows for proper zoning and allocation of spaces, ensuring a more organised and aesthetically pleasing cityscape.

Will you keep quiet there!!!!

Look at the heap of refuse in front of that market.... If Lawma provided appropriate waste receptacles would people dump refuse anyhow? Why has Lawma not evacuated that rubbish heap? Pot calling kettle black!!!! People are willing to pay reasonable fees for functional public services not task force here and there when Una never do your primary responsibility as government agencies!!!

accordadoga30:
Hehehehehe

A lot of public schools are better than private schools although na private some of us go.

Make public school no just increase their own fee oo.

This is the time patriotic Nigerians (I'm not talking about the ones from one region showing fake love) need to show their patriotism.

Nigeria shall soon become better.

I am sure na night school you bin go because your brain dey only think jatijati.

johnpalmer774:
You lack basic understanding of how law works , did NNPP asked or proved that APC had invalid votes ?? If no then why do you expect the court grant them what they never asked for ??Court do not give you what you do not ask for so get that simple logic right.

Are you privy to what NNPP's counter position was?

Or do you think that in the tribunal it is just the argument of the plaintiff that is entertained?

Ikaeniyan0:
APC will still win because APC votes were also cancelled. All the parties votes were affected

Don't say what you can't defend.

How many APC votes in Kano were invalidated due to INEC errors?

Or was it coincidence that INEC failed to get it right only in 165k votes of NNPP alone?

No be JuJu be that?

We've been hearing about the 4th mainland bridge for some time now.

Unfortunately after many years it still remains in conception stage.

There are lessons to be learnt from the third mainland bridge story Viz nothing is too big to achieve if the government of the day sets it's mind to it.

We need to expand boat transport along the waterways of Lagos significantly for one and two we need to take this 4th mainland serious.

Rayban25:
that is not their business if everybody knew or not. they have already passed the information that it ends by 8. Ignorance is not an excuse. Police will use it against you since they had alreday given the ending time. even if they didnt tell you time wouldnt you at some point go back to your house? like i said its not an indefinite protest like endsarz.

You're looking at the scenario idealistically if every one was to conduct themselves as expected but you know in real life things never go exactly to plan.

I'm viewing it humanistically. When people are gathered in solidarity or in protest there will definitely be different kinds of people and different ideas being exchanged so you shouldn't be surprised if discussions move towards the current economic realities people face on a daily basis.

As for the police, you can only expect them to perform when it involves government or HNIs.

Rayban25:
no you dont understand. they planned on a candle light procession. not a protest. in as much as i dislike the present administration also, we must not do what will implicate us. the agreement was to leave by 8. why now go to toll gate? if anything happens nobody will legitimately be able to cry victim.

if it were a protest yes. but this is not. dont forget that police can use your actions against you to cover up their callousness

Let's be honest. How many of the people who joined the procession were informed of the modalities of the procession?

You can expect the frustration of the people with the handling of the Mohbad issue to overflow and merge with the overall dissatisfaction of the current economic realities of the common man which only seem to be getting worse and with no signs of any solution in sight.

Dididrumz:
Nigerians, we too stubborn.


Why try to turn a candle light procession to a protest?
What did those set of persons go to Lekki toll gate to do, after the candle light procession had ended at Muri Okunola park?

We're always looking for a reason to cry oppression.

With the way the country is and the hunger in the land, are citizens not right to protest?

Let's stop with all this hypocrisy abeg!

Goodman2023:
Some people are not smart...if you have anything illegal in your house, before you decide to keep that thing at home, you must have identify a place in that house when even the spirits cannot see it ...

All criminals believe they are smart until they are caught.

loosecanon50:
It is Obvious Dave Umahi didn't come to play as minister of works. He means business.

Talk is cheap.

Until we start seeing the projects completed and done to the highest standards before we will believe.

Just imagine if Nigerians dedicated this energy into investigating why their refineries have refused to work....

TruthsFM:
Nigerian star @Khaid has pledged to support Mohbad's family with the sum of 2 million Naira, and covey 100% of the royalties from his tribute song to his son. 🤍

God bless Khaid, This is Love ❤️

Typical Nigerian youth with mentality of expo.

Which one come be Covey? You seem am for the original post come copy am follow post!

Fizalis:
Good post but you veered off course by saying youths are lazy sir.
The perpetrators at the sea ports are old men in charge and not youths sir.
This issue got nothing to do with lazy youths sir.
I forget to remind you that you can lead a protest and we will be right there behind you sir!

If your house is on fire and instead of looking for how to put off the fire, you're waiting first for someone to come and assist you then you are indeed a lazy youth.

When Buhari called Nigerian youths lazy People were complaining. See the daylight robbery that was taking place under APC in the last 8 years and they were rewarded by another 4 years.

Today dollar is N1000 but people who should be concerned about their stomachs are organising protests seeking justice for Mohbad and watching big brother.

socialmediaman:
Good! How much of that is used for debt servicing? Accounting for inflation since the previous budget, how much did it grow or shrink?

Bros.... Off your Mic ooooo. Make some owomida bingos for nairaland no come chop you o!!

So Una know say problem dey the oil and gas sector wey Una never solve na im Una first of all remove subsidy make the people suffer why Una dey find solution. Come devalue dollar on top make our national debt double overnight and make inflation and unemployment skyrocket.

No be JuJu be that?

DeLaRue:
Crude oil prices are shooting up on the international market.

The price of diesel has not been subsided for many years, so the government is not going to start subsidising diesel now.

All over the world, every one is complaining about the rising price of crude oil, which is currently about $95 dollars per barrel.

Go on you tube, you will see many videos of Americans complaining they cant even afford to buy fuel to drive to work!

It is Russian and Saudi Arabia reducing reduce supply in order to make more money. The rest of the world is screwed...for now.

Please explain why the government then decided to devalue the naira when they have not started exporting anything of value to improve our balance of payments position and make imported diesel cheaper?

Subsidy must go..... Oya una Don comot subsidy..... So what's the plan now awon Renewed Hope?

I'm sure seunmsg and helinues will avoid this topic like the plague

This is the same APC that called PDP corrupt. See how our commonwealth was just being plundered shamelessly and people like helinues will come out to defend the indefensible.

Birds of the same feather.

HBB1:
Bullshit!


Subsidy removal was advocated by Obi too.

How did Obi show empathy when he was Governor?

The system is messed up and would require time before things change.

I hope tribalism is not blinding you to see that?
(I supported Obi before the elections btw)

Let me say it again-- Nigeria is broke!

Drugs are meant to cure sickness but similarly drugs can kill if prescribed wrongly or taken in the wrong dosage.

Obi wanted to fix the refineries before removing subsidies. That way we would not have been at the mercy of the international market unlike what we see today. Obi was also interested in blocking all the loopholes in the system that encouraged stealing and corruption unlike what we have today.

accordadoga29:
This yamiiri still dey talk.

We are Yorubas.

We don’t wake our parents and obas up with side-kicks.

What Obj did is a taboo in Yoruba land.

What exactly do you know about Yoruba culture except to feel among on social media?

25% is just the official rate. In reality inflation is closer to 50% . Very soon NBS will recalibrate the definition of inflation as they did for unemployment because the rate of inflation is fast becoming a national embarrassment.

Raskimonojendor:
Just leaving this out there. The Nigerian government does not control the price of crude oil.

Let me educate you.

We own crude oil and do swap deals for refined fuel so by right the fluctuations in the price of Brent crude should not affect the price of imported fuel as what we pay for is just the production cost margin.

If Brent crude was $50 and we were getting refined fuel of $40 by swap. Even if crude rises to $60 production costs are not expected to sky rocket. The margin is supposed to remain the same or marginally higher.

So instead of addressing the issue of herders encroaching on farm lands, you're asking the farmers to harvest whatever they can because there's nothing that can be done about the encroachment. Hmmmm safeguarding of lives and property in the mud.

Acekidc4:
Ndi Ala People are trying Small Small but it will take them 650 years to measure and catch up with Lagos Current and Present Level right now Which will never happen cos Lagos will keep Developing at an Alarming rate!! They will continue doing Catch up till eternity!!

Even in front of Ikeja Bus terminal, there are huge potholes.

In which area of can the government beat it's chest that it has fixed 90% of the major roads except Lekki which is a no go area whenever rains fall?

ShoeWorld1:
This is just the tip of the iceberg.
We all have to wait for the invisible Indian investors to invest 14$ billion for the next decade.


My own be say, hunger is too much in this country and all levels of government need to join hands and fight poverty because we are clearly seeing the effects of it in the Northwest and Northeast part of the country.

But no be una reward APC by voting them in for another term?

AllenSpencer:
If my loved one is a miscreant, it’s welcomed!

What if your loved one was wrongly arrested and while in captivity, the police decided to poison him?

How would you feel?

That's why all are presumed innocent until proven guilty and appropriately sentenced.

AllenSpencer:
If my loved one is a miscreant, it’s welcomed!

That's why we have laws and the judiciary. If they are tried and found guilty then they should be prosecuted according to the law.

This is supposed to be a democracy. Even in Sharia, police don't kill prisoners in captivity.

Let the law take its full course.

AllenSpencer:
The Nigerian police need to be eliminating these thugs in captivity.

Is it too difficult to poison someone in jail?

How can you write something like this?

What if this happens to one of your loved ones?

PHAYOL81:
NO one argues viability and functionality of any institution with you but that doesn't make the state proactive measure less commendable. Learn to give credit when and where due, not all situation attracts wail and complaint.
YOUR submission was very poor and f00lish. THE analogy is that afather should cease any other household commitment （providing food, clothing, bills） because his kids are unable to resume school for non-payment of the fees. LIFE mustn't stop because a part is ailing！

I have tried to overlook your intellectual shortcomings and tried to have a matured discourse with you but it seems that you are hellbent on exchanging insults which I am not going to besmirch myself by engaging you along those lines.

If government ostensibly is out to save lives there are far more important things that can have the greater good than rendering people homeless without compensation. Governments from time immemorial have demolished structures to build roads and paid appropriate compensation. So if the government wants to engage on demolition exercises, by all means let them proceed but they should pay compensation to all affected! Not only will this generate goodwill for the government, but it would also help avoid potential crime and environmental issues from the displaced persons. However it makes no sense to save one life from demolished buildings while you ignore ailing hospitals and bad roads that kill 100 more people per 1 person killed in collapsed buildings. The stats are there. Google it and compare the death stats over the last 5 years from road accidents and hospitals to collapsed buildings for yourself.

A father who needs to pay for his child's school fees would not be looking for how to pay new sandal for his child who shoe is worn out but wearable until he has been able to hustle and pay school fees. Similarly it would be stupid of a woman to go and make her hair when her children are hungry in the house. Understand what scale of preference is and what should be the priority and vice versa.
