Stop disgracing your family please. How does conceiving equate to initiating? When them tell Una to go school, Una go say school na scam. I am sorry I can’t help you.

Olodo.... You're already a disgrace to your generation. Read you won't read. Go and read the history of the origin of the Lagos metroline and the role Jakande played before you come to a public forum to expose your stupidity.

doseni:
SMH. A simple google search would have saved you this embarrassment.

Pot calling kettle black..... Olodo!

seunmsg:
We accept that the Lagos railway is mediocrity. Where is the world standard Onitsha monorail that Peter Obi initiated vide an MOU in 2010? Is 12 years not enough to get the project beyond the MOU stage?

Do you know when the MOU for the design of the Lagos metro was signed? Not 10 years ago? Not even when Tinubu was governor .... During the era of Lateef Jakande!!! So which one is worse.?

Ancestortinubu:
Nna, ibos needs biafra nation. We the yoruba people will remain one Nigeria with our beloved fulani hausa brothers.

Very foolish unenlightened racist and tribalistic comment.

I'm sure even Tinubu will not endorse that comment.

One word for you: AGBERO

johnjose68:
If this your statement makes you happy, then enjoy it while it last.

How am I sure you are not even a product of baby factory. Let me leave you to your fate.

Dont forget to google Ezu river killings, though.

Perhaps you should Google skull mining and while you're at it also look up Nigeria's current inflation rate and percentage of Nigerians now living below the poverty line then ask yourself if any sane person should vote such a party back into office.

johnjose68:
Make sure you add Jagaban whenever you call Tinubu. What a disrespect

And for your information, the worst tribalist are the igbos. Go through history and you will see this...

Every other tribes welcome the igbo happily, that is why you see the igbos almost everywhere like scavengers..

And instead of you to respect your host, you always want to take over every space....(one of the causes of the civil war).

Its never too late. Start establishing relationships with other tribes and region now...maybe by 2099, you will have a chance.

The Yorubas (both Christian and Muslim) cannot leave their son and support someone whose peoples past time is hatred and abuse both online and offline for the the Yorubas (the greatest accommodator of all).

Like I said, it's never too late...

Chai lack of education is a disease....smh. Once upon a time some of the best educated learning institutions and educated minds emanated from the west but these children of nowadays only know agberoism and tribalism even at the detriment of their own people. What a shame!

johnjose68:
Thank you for telling us...
How una dey enjoy the sit at home

Have you burnt INEC office today

Una never see something

Landlocked dot nation

Is it not a failure of government that an organisation can declare a sit at home and even APC dare not come to campaign on such days in the south east?

Should it be something to laugh about or cry about?

Ancestortinubu:
Ibos can go and have their biafra nation. We the yoruba people can retain one Nigeria with our our hausa fulani beloved people. Ibos are not needed in Nigeria.

Very foolish unenlightened racist and tribalistic comment.

I'm sure even Tinubu will not endorse that comment.

Realist12:
Then they should support and vote a finance expert with wizardry skills that can compliment Buhari's infrastructure centered growth.
Coz Tinubu is promising to continue from where Buhari stops.
Not the one that thinks and says infrastructures doesn't bring growth or the other whose only economic mantra is " sell sell " smh
Isn't it ironic that we are talking of train services coming back to life in full gear in Nigeria yet championed by the man they love to hate.

They need to ditch the ethnic sentiments if they truly want the trains working for real and follow the man and party that knows the road. The sabotage is the excuse of the federal government for not being able to fund the project, so who is to be blamed?

BAT23

na bag of rice be your problem instead of mechanized agriculture. You wan eat away your future ? We need to start facing the problems now and growing the rice ourselves.
In order for your kids to be able to afford cheaper rice in the future " the farmers must make more money " now, farming has to be lucrative and attractive.

More beautiful nonsense ..... If you know even the basics of economics you will understand that one of the key economic indicators of well-being is the affordability and availability or otherwise of essential commodies like food, water, electricity et al which this your APC has failed woefully in delivering upon. So, yes we need to ask how much is a bag of rice in your area now compared to 2014 and how much fuel is in your area compared to 2014 so we can know if we have moved forward or backward!

How much has been spent by this administration on agriculture? Is rice not grown domestically? In large scale? At least I'm sure you're aware of Lagos state government's LAKE rice?

How has it impacted on the pricing of the produce locally? How can the produce be affordable with the level of insecurity on the roads, the bad state of roads, the incessant extortion of transporters by the police and agberos and of course the spiralling costs of fuel?

Not everyone on this platform is unenlightened you know...

You're talking beautiful nonsense....


How much is bag of rice in your area?

How much is a litre of fuel?

Originalsly:
I understand that... it is not the first time new notes were introduced... the old notes are always phased out over time.... but we were never moving into a cashless society.... the reason the notes were replaced. If now .owing into a cashless society ... why introduce new notes and replace the old notes instead of phasing out notes period? ... how are you making it cashless by maintaining the same amount of cash?

Not the same amount of new notes will be reintroduced into cash supply as withdrawn via the old notes. If 1b is withdrawn via old notes and 200m is introduced via new notes, you will expect inflation to reduce as this contractionary monetary policy will help reduce total aggregate spending.

I hope this is clearer.

Wickedfacts:
Go to Ariaria market and tell those igbo traders this nonsense about supporting cashless policy let's see what will happen to you.
You poor Igbos always behave like animals, supporting nonsense that will wreck the businesses of wealthy Igbos. Them swear for una?

In fact many people there will embrace transfers more because as the new notes are released fake notes will also be released.

Bros no need to fight it. Cashless is here to stay. It has been 10 years since this policy was introduced. Once upon a time people didn't believe in ATM and POS but now they are everywhere. The same thing will happen with transfers. All government needs to focus on with the telecoms is continuously improving network coverage and quality.

Originalsly:
With all the explanation ... if you are moving to a cash less society then you need to be phasing out cash ... not redesigning and introducing new bills. Im surprised no one raised this .... th3y just sat there and swallowed what she had to say ....... maybe something is wrong with my reasoning.

Not all of the old notes will be deposited to the banks before the deadline. These notes will those automatically be phased out. I hope you understand now.

Obaofaba:
It is anti people policy

I laugh when some were saying let the policy remained till after the election. The dumbest argument I've ever seen.

What is the total number of those aspiring for political office in Nigeria compare to the well-meaning Nigerians that the policy will have affected between now and after the general election if we hadn't resisted it?

2 hours only could be a hell of long time for someone fighting for his life talkmore of a policy they were advocating to last for a couple of months.

If that is even the case, can you as an investor, invest in a country with policy summersaults?

All this SS one economics cannot save the naira, only being productive will.

If it's bad after the election, it's bad before the election

You are the one exposing your ignorance to the world.

Cashless policy was initiated in 2012 ten years ago. Nigerians have been given ample time to adjust to it. Rural dwellers don't deal with much cash anyway so Uncle please explain how this is a policy somersault?

owobokiri:
But Buhari always dances to their tunes because he's actually the one playing the tunes.. He pretends he knows nothing but he knows everything..

Watch out for Buharis announcement of his sack through a tarse message from Femi Adesina any moment ...

Buhari remains the president. If he didn't want the policy he wouldn't have approved it. Shikena.

He has also publicly come out to back the policy and Emefiele.

Jennyclay:
We (Nigerians) are our problem in this country, but we are so quick to blame the government. The impersonator was also extorting money from motorists particularly poor commercial bus drivers in Lagos.

I wonder why he bagged 4 months jail . He should've been sentenced to Life Imprisonment.
Criminal! Thief! Ole!

So it is ok for lastma to extort poor lagosians but it's a crime for someone to cash in?

How many lastma officials actually fine traffic offenders without diverting the fines to themselves?

maasoap:
Lol, look at this dullard
So, Tinubu contesting against other Presidential aspirants does not equivalent to him testing his popularity?

Bros no need for the meaningless insults. It doesn't speak well of your upbringing. This is just a simple poll to test public opinion about Tinubu.

Elon Musk instituted an online poll to test his popularity. That is a substantive CEO. Yet he was willing to submit himself to public opinion.

I hope you understand. Not everything is worth fighting for.

Shalom.

Imagine if Tinubu should test his popularity likewise asking Nigerians if he should be the next president I wonder what the outcome will be... At least this is not Arise TV....

Sweetplum:

Dunno where monsterous and unintelligent men like you emanated from. You must be a wife beater and I m sure it ll be doing you like say make you heat me.
Shey your ancestors forgot to tell you that herdsmen menace started before independence?
And is Boko Haram that we had before duting PDP's reign good? You are here arguing blindly and justifying PDP's tenure in order to spite APC. Ori e buru ni?
Why don't you just clamour for the best party?

Were! Ori e ti Daru. Omo ale!

You must be a homicidal schizophrenic, a professional sex offender, a repeat cattle rapist and a certified crack addict with no ounce of common sense left.

Someone came and beat drums clamouring for votes on the grounds of tackling insecurity and have not lived up to their promise. Now the time has come to review their performance and decide if they are deserving of reelection but nincompoops like you are still stuck in reviewing what happened in Mungo Park's era.

I for ask you to receive sense but I know that there is no solution in sight for you as Igbo has finished what little capacity you had left to receive sense.

Sweetplum:
Your response was meaningless. It's takes dullness to write your first post. You wanted to talk about APC, start from 2015. If you weren't coherent, don't come online for disgrace.
PDP was responsible for handling affairs from 1999-2015. All those crisis happened during their tenure.
Your purpose of quoting me is to take advantage of my post to vent on APC. Me sef no like dem. But what they v done wrong is what I ll tell.

You must be smoking something to write this foolish riposte. Even the deaf and dumb know that Fulani herdsmen attacks especially in the middle belt became prominent within the last 8 years which gave rise to kidnapping and banditry all over the nation.

Before APC what we had was Boko Haram but now we have not only them but also ISWAP, UGM IPOB etc. Tackling Insecurity was one of the major campaign promises of the APC but till now our roads and even our trains are unsafe.

Sweetplum:
Don't politick. Cos no be APC dey for govt when 2001, 2003, 2009 and other years before 2015.

This is a very meaningless response. Are we in 2001 or 2005 or pre 2015?

We are in 2022 and we are discussing what will be relevant to the voting in 2023. If PDP did well, APC would not have won in 2015. So if APC is not doing well and have been unable to keep their promises they should equally be voted out.

Shikena.

Kyase:
.
Fulani issues in Benue and plateau predates APC
Even now
Ortom has been the one killing his people tagging it Fulani
Na we from there know

So what has your APC led federal government done to quell these ethno religious crises In these states?

Was it not because of the lack of assistance from the FG in securing his state that prompted him to leave APC in the first place? Anyone in Benue still supporting APC should bury his head in shame but I guess you can't shame the shameless. People must always sell out for money.

Sweetplum:
Too many bloodshed I'm Kaduna and Plateau State. I dunno which state has the highest ratio among the two.

You know the saddest part.... In spite of all these killings many of their indigenes still support APC.

How ironic!

Listening to people like Kyase (who should be from Benue state which has been ravaged by Fulani herdsmen) supporting APC is really disheartening.

Truly there must be a Judas in every 12 disciples.

Speaking of Judases these days we no too dey hear about the Ibo Judas in Lagos charged with cleaning guttters as a reward for his shameless APC bootlicking. I hear that he and his family are no longer able to visit the East due to his antecedents.

priceactionx:
someone far away from Nigeria will make a pull and less than a population of 4 wards with less than 20k people including those without pvc will vote and someone that doesn't want to understand how Nigeria political space is being controlled and manipulated here will be jubilating.
Is like many kids are in this politics section?
As long as Nigeria is using same type of system, that keep on repeating same old politicians in power, online polls are very useless. The real election manipulations are in the rural areas and within the locals. And the old guys know how to get them. Nothing will change.

Bros wake up and smell the coffee.

Some people are going about campaigning for votes while others are crying that BVAS shouldn't be used in rural areas because of network. The same people are also crying that this CBN withdrawal limit should not stand.

If they have the structure as they claim why are they afraid to go head to head with other parties and win fair and square?

Moh247:
Why not negotiate a more sustainable price cap

Uncle.... If Una wan win the election do it fair and square not by vote buying.

onatisi:
it will destroy the economy, you are ok because you are in a city where there is telecom networks, atm, pos and you have the luxury of being educated. there are many who are in remote areas where the network is very bad, how will they transact? how will food sellers going deep into rurarl areas pay farmers when even ppl in the cities are rejecting the new notes / we don't have the infrastructure yet to do these things.

It won't destroy the economy. Nobody is saying don't withdraw cash just pay charges if you exceed the limit.

Truth is that rural dwellers don't spend copious amounts of cash for their subsistent existence. If you want to go there to buy land or buy in bulk or buy votes, source for your cash and pay the charges. Just the same way if you want to go abroad you go to the black market and buy dollars.

Don't be more catholic than the pope.

LeoDeKing:
Paint it the way you want, this policy is very wrong. You can't just go copy one system from Europe and impose it on us without taking note of the structures on which they were built in that Europe.

Network is even the main challenge here, why not get at least 90% perfection on this first? Imagine after shopping in the mall, you either make a transfer or use the POS only for the money to get stucked, call the bank, they tell you to wait for 5 working days before reversal.

Secondly, why punishing over 200 million Nigerians because of less than 10k politicians? Recently, the cbn says there are over 1.4 million pos agents nationwide, with 20k daily maximum withdrawal limits, how can they continue their business?

This is just a tip of the Iceberg on the attendant issues with this policy, there over 100 other cases that are yet to be noticed and will largely affect SMEs which this govt claim to be its main apostle.

And for those thinking they are doing Tinubu, I just dey laff.
.
Anyway, what do I know?

Exactly. You don't know anything. I'm not surprised though that this is the kind of story that the Nation will carry. Bunch of Hypocrites.

We are witnessing galloping inflation and the CBN is finding it hard to control this because 80% of money is outside the banking system.

All these APC governors are crying foul because it's going to make it very difficult for them to prosecute their vote buying machinations. They want to send a delegation to the President to reverse the one policy that is actually geared towards saving the people from back breaking inflation. It's now they are claiming that they are fighting for the people. The POS operators can still operate in this clime and make money helping with deposits and transfers.

Let all those people stockpiling money in their houses bring out the money!!!

Obaofaba:
This man just dey give me joy.

Mentioning his name makes me feel fulfilled.

My future and that of my next generation is safe with him at the helm of affairs of this country.

He's done it before and will always do it anytime, anyday twice on Saturday.

I'm sure you must be an agbero because normal sane Nigerians will never vote for the party that for the last 8 years have promised what they could not deliver and instead brought untold suffering to Nigerians everywhere.

If with the current inflation, fuel price and insecurity everywhere you're still supporting APC then something is wrong somewhere.

[quote author= post=119236194]Still on APGA.

Bianca Ojukwu Golden Words below.........

Quoting Bianca Ojukwu.



It is simple.
I maintain that Peter Obi betrayed Dim Ojukwu, and tried to destroy APGA for his own selfish interests.
He has continued to undermine Ojukwu’s personality and recently, he has gone ahead to desecrate his legacy. From relative obscurity, Obi was brought into national prominence when the leader, Ojukwu, through his party APGA, offered him an opportunity and platform upon which he ran and became governor of Anambra State.

“Ojukwu sacrificed so much and laboured for him to become governor.
He (Ojukwu) was fiercely protective of him and helped him overcome the various challenges that confronted him.

“Peter Obi had a difficult first tenure and stepped on so many toes that the majority of our party faithful were adamant that he should not be nominated for a second tenure. Yet Ojukwu stood by him when it mattered most, jeopardised his health by traversing all the local governments in a rigorous campaign on his behalf and begged the people of Anambra State to grant him a last wish by returning Obi for a second term.

“This feat was achieved for the first time in Anambra State’s history on 6th February 2010. Peter Obi swore to Ojukwu, upon his honour, that he would never abandon APGA; that he would quit politics or die; rather than leave APGA, and that he would preserve this legacy as a potent voice and rallying point for Ndigbo.

“History will judge him (Obi) harshly because the truth of the matter is that it is his pathological fear of political redundancy and oblivion that is now driving him dangerously close to the precipice from where he will soon commit political suicide. The people of Anambra State cannot be hoodwinked as they are determined not to indulge him with a third tenure by installing his candidate as governor.”

[/quote]Shameless man.

Why don't you speak to record 21.4% inflation in the country or N250 per litre fuel that Nigerians are currently suffering?

Hypocrite

Wickedfacts:
I can see that you're already embracing Obi's inevitable loss. Get ready to wail for the next 8 years.

If GEJ decided to hold unto power by any means necessary like APC I'm sure urchins like you would have been nowhere to be found. Today you're shamelessly crowing inspite of the untold damage APC has wreaked on this country in the last 8 years.

We complained of corruption under PDP but APC has shown that even they themselves are corrupt. Add that to the massive debt, the high level of insecurity nationwide, the runaway inflation, the falling naira and the ever expanding poverty level this country is virtually on its knees.

You APC urchins are actually shameless. Instead of singing emilokan, You should be begging Nigerians for absolutely failing to deliver on your campaign promises and taking this country backwards 50 years.

femisplash:
You'd better give up on your father who in millions of ages, will never be able to lace Tinubu's shoes. Tinubu featured in Chattam House, he also appeared before BBC as his intelligence was well demonstrated yet some ragtags of subhuman loafers are hell bent on pushing propaganda that would end them labouring in vain.

If any one should speak of propaganda it should definitely not be you hypocrite.

Awon change and next level.

See where Una don carry this country go after 8 years.

Please let us embrace peace.

This table that is being shaken hmmmm...

We all know how book haram and banditry started from isolated incidents to now it's has blossomed into full scale terrorism and now kidnapping is now a national business.

I pray that whoever becomes the next president takes an in-depth look into the Nigerian Police because majority of them have abandoned their duties in favour of checkpoint to obtain from innocent Nigerians.

May God help us in this country
