All workers should expect 150k as the national minimum wage once Obi is sworn in.

So that Mr Obi can owe workers 13 months salaries,abi?

loveth360:
Nobody take your minors serious

Delulu.
Yorubas have been doing that system even before Igbos ventured into business.
What makes me laugh is ascribing it as Igbo system.
In the world,a lot of tribes do it with different variances but the one you explained was being practiced by Yorubas before Igbos started doing business.
The...live with your boss and serve him for some years... and a couple of other modern variances which look like the European system also exist among the Yorubas especially in fashion,carpentry etc.
In trading among the Yorubas,the one you narrated still exists between apprentices and their bosses.I had a couple of them in my extended family.

AMINDA:
Indeed. Elrufai failed the security clearance under Tinubu's rubberstamp national assembly but Bello Matawalle, Yahaya Bello and Okowa did not. Indeed, cowards die a thousand times before their deaths. Elrufai is unbreakable and scores will be settled as long as time tarries.

It is that settling of scores that will totally delete him from the political space.

ChenHao23:
Lol
Iran obliterated US bases in the Gulf yet
Iran is being blocked from using her ports by the US

What stops Iran from sinking US ships enforcing the blockade?
Make it make sense 😂

What stops USA from clearing the Strait of Hormuz with all their mouth?

loveth360:
Lolz they should rather continue hat:ing on Igbos.



Next 50 years they will claim they introduced it to Igbos.

You too know that it was copied from the Yorubas especially the Kwarans.
They still do it till date.
Only that our blodas are just always loud.
Yorubas will say "O ya ise fun".
I always thought it existed in many cultures.

techbro1:
Rubbish. While I commend the construction of roads, the propaganda needs to die a horrible death. Of what use is the noisemaking when the roads aren't even complete? Benin bypass, so much noise was made but work has stopped. Enugu - Makurdi, same thing. Transporters prefer to drive to villages to avoid delays. Enugu - Onitsha that you people keep singing about, look at the absolute slow pace of work and substandard process going on there. Enough of this bullshit from people that aren't well traveled. I'm on the road every damn week and I know what I go through. You people that sit in your homes collect pictures from a 2-3km section of an entire 100+ kilometers road and make so much noise about it. Tinubu is a failure and APC is a failure too. Accept it and let's make sure we send them home next year. Enough is enough

You are pained that your candidate can never lace Tinubu's shoes.
Seems like you are an enemy of Nigerians.
No let Nigerians catch you o.
What exactly is "performance" in your view,sir?

You want to stop all of these goodies and bring in a failure?
No other govt since dem create Nigeria has ever performed like this baba Tinubu.


No govt is perfect and without corruption but President Tinubu has been very prudent with the finances of Nigeria.
He has also paid off $7 billion dollars Nigeria owed foreign airlines making a total of almost $ 11 billon that he has paid.
He is also doing....
NELFUND...If you are poor and have 100 children,go and put them for university.Tinubu will pay their school fees and also give them#20,000 Every month for pocket.It is when they get work that they will pay back like kobo kobo without interest.No job,no pay.

President Tinubu has implemented subsidies for maternal medical services in Nigeria.
1. Free Cesarean Sections (C-sections): President Tinubu approved a policy for free C-sections for pregnant women in federal hospitals to reduce high maternal mortality rates.

2. Emergency Obstetric Care: The Federal Government has designated 154 health facilities nationwide to provide free treatment for pregnant women with complications, including free care for vesicovaginal fistula (VVF).Maternal Health Initiatives:

3. Tinubu is providing 100% subsidized healthcare to vulnerable Nigerians, covering emergency obstetric care.

4. Drug Banks for Maternal Health: The Seyi Tinubu Maternal and Child Health Intervention Program has supported hospitals by providing essential medicines, delivery kits, and setting up drug banks for indigent patients, including those in obstetrics and gynecology departments.These programs are being implemented across major federal medical centres and teaching hospitals across the six geopolitical zones.

You think say all the people wey dey enjoy these goodies wey never happen for Nigeria before go allow you do your wickedness?
Ehn baba?
We no go gree,sir.

He is also executing numerous massive projects in all the 6 geopolitical regions of Nigeria.
Since the creation of Nigeria,no govt has performed like him even as he has just used 3 years.

He has also promised,God willing,to end terrorism and banditry before he hands over in 2031.
God will surely do it for us
May God accept Nigerians' prayers to end this bloodletting .

Tinubu remains the best President Nigeria has had since 1960.

Ballmer:
Why can't Obi distrubute the money he got with murderer Abacha n the N250 million he looted monthly from Anambra coffers for 8 years or were those also not stolen loot by the cursed bigot Peter Obi.

I wonder o.
Maybe he has kept his stolen money including the security votes money he got for 8 years in Pandora for later.

Juniorangel:
But that's the only thing he can do very well, he doesn't know anything about insecurity or subsidy, etc but you see this borrowing leave am for am.

He also knows how to pay debts too because he has paid off almost $11 billion dollars of Nigeria's debts.
In fact,he paid off all the money Nigeria was owing IMF.

Putinofrussia:
Yes,South Africa has 5 times debt more than Nigeria,why are they still borrowing?
Why are China and USA still borrowing even as they are some of the richest nations in the world?
Most previous govts (except a few military govts who could have done triple then but decided to embezzle the funds but still built something) did not build infrastructures but just one or two.
What they did mostly was import food like rice so we could buy at...like some people will say "sheybi we were buying a bag of rice for #3000 now"?
We were/are shameless,importing everything.
No production,No infrastructures,No health,
ASUU strikes all over because they have eaten their money,they were owing workers up to 20 months and so on.
Tinubu has only borrowed around $32 billion and he has paid off around $11 billion he met on ground.
Why are the wicked,let us go back to 'business as usual opposition not asking "Why is Tinubu paying debts he met on ground now"?
Or "why is he doing free technical colleges all over Nigeria with #22,500 stipend paid to students now"?
Bad belle people.
Nigeria,since 1960,has gotten very wicked people as leaders.
You like and go to USA,UK,China,Dubai even South Africa because of their infrastructures which always help in growth,development and better life for the masses of the nation but wicked people are fighting teeth and nails for Nigeria to not build infrastructures.
No be juju be dat?

Despite high nominal debt, Nigeria's debt-to-GDP ratio is projected by the IMF to be around 32.3% , which is lower than that of Ghana and South Africa.
The Federal Government just recently inaugurated a high-powered technical committee to review and fast-track a $200 billion integrated gas, power, and high-speed rail project, which aims to improve electricity and connect major economic hubs (Lagos,Abuja, Kano, Port Harcourt).
The senate even commended President Tinubu for dedicating $3 billion to the reconstruction of the Eastern Rail Line, connecting Port Harcourt to Maiduguri.
What else do we want?
You want Tinubu to embezzle the money like previous govts?

South Africa is owing 5 times more than Nigeria and they are still borrowing.
Are they going to sink too?
So if Nigeria borrows to do infrastructures,it will sink but if it borrows to embezzle like previous govts such as Obasanjo that swallowed our $16 billion,Nigeria will not sink,it will stand gidigba,abi?

Wicked,devilish soul.

manikal:
Lol.
For the first time in history,

2 brigadier generals were killed by terrorists.
2 majors as well and more than 100 Nigerian soldiers in the last 5 months.

I no even fit vex for this bs because una no get shame at all.

Fire down brother. E go touch you.

But thousands of the devilish terrorists have been sent to hell by our gallant troops.
May God guide,protect and bless our gallant troops.

SeeWahala:
If we decide to post how many times these same so called rag-tag terrorists have murdered and kpai innocent law abiding Nigerians I swear nairaland server go crash

Na this one tilumbu and his Fulani army wan use score cheap propaganda points this season?

These are just a few instances.
Our troops have had more than 100 instances where the terrorists have been decimated but not reported.
Most people do not even know these ones posted.

Bravo to our great gallant soldiers but it is not yet uhuru.All the terrorists and their financiers,sympathisers must be gotten rid of.
Nigerians will surely triumph.

Nlfpmod etc,please take it to the Front Page.
Our soldiers are trying and we shall all triumph.

pigmania:
Then let them simply clear the tiny amount and be tagged 'debt free'.

Have you seen any serious,developed or developing nation in the world that is debt free?
USA and China are the most indebted nations in the world.He get why.

Kaetoh:
Lagos has no business being in debt as a a state that generates several billions on naira monthly not to talk FAC allocation. This is why I never rate any governor of that state and each and every one of them is a colossal fraud and disaster waiting to befall Nigeria. I mean look at Tinubu , look at fashola , look at sanwo olu , these guys are pure failures if you compare everything they get to every thing they give back . States that gets 10 times less than what Lagos gets are seen doing 10 times more than what Lagos does . Nigerians should open their eyes to see the monumental corruption going on in that state and other south west states. And some of our counterparts in the south west will tell you how Tinubu is better than Peter Obi . Anambra gets meager allocation compared to Lagos yet the performance of Peter Obi as governor dwarfs whatever you see in Lagos state. God willing there will be more exposition to this discussion with time .

Everybody knows that Obi was a disaster when he governed Anambra for 8 years.
He couldn't build a single school,he owed workers for 13 months when he locked up Anambra schools and hospitals..

DesChyko:
Some people will say "It is not a bad thing to be in debt." Such a Nigerian thing to say, without considering the repayment capacity.

Nations and businesses borrow because the profits,benefits are often larger than the repayment which is mostly stretched in months or years.Dangote borrowed $20 billion to build his refinery but can make trillion of dollars within some years
No state has half of the infrastructures Lagos has.
This is apart from what the FG built.

Flangelo12:
Not a big deal for Lagos.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Don't mind the article.
I thought it will be #10 trillion or $5 billion.
This tiny amount is what Lagos can clear in a day..

Leonardo4:
But the total money borrowed by Tinubu in less than 4yrs is already almost twice what Jonathan borrowed in 6yrs or what Buhari burrowed in 8yrs. Where is ur sense

As Nigeria grows, you pay more subsidy.
Jonathan didn't pay up #3 trillion as subsidy and Buhari paid only #11 trillion.
What most people didn't know is with paying of subsidy..
1.Your refineries were fatally damaged because of what the wicked were getting from oil subsidy.
2.There would never be any Dangote refinery and the others.

What exactly do you want to gain in this fake post?
You would not allow people to believe Ibos again.
You are always posting fakes just to make yourself happy or what?

Putinofrussia:
The only place where wealth is well spread is among the Yorubas and this is why they don't flee from their region like the Igbos.
Both the Yoruba men and women are wealth builders but for Igbos,their women mostly sell things like okpa,groundout etc.
You can never see a Yoruba person go and beg in other regions just like a white man will not come and beg in Nigeria but not for the other major tribes.

You are right and Yorubas are the only people that have massive businesses not only in Nigeria but abroad.They also have businesses that are more than 100,90,80 years and no other tribe comes close.
All the major tribes are rich but none comes close to the Yorubas because of the spread.
You wouldn't believe that only Ibadan has more than 11 GRAs and more infrastructures than most cities in Nigeria.
That is the power of wealth building..

gidgiddy:
We all know that some unscrupulous people will try to twist whatever Peter Obi says to mean another thing, just because they want their preferred candidate to win. They see Obi as a threat, and rightly so, he is. But nobody should allow misrepresentation fly.

They are now saying that Peter Obi is against drop in food prices, that it would make local farmers poor. But this what Obi said

"Someone told me that food prices have gone down. Actually, we have killed all our farmers. Because we have imported cheap goods and thrown our farmers into poverty which will worsen the hungry situation of Nigeria in the coming future"

What I believe Obi was trying to tell Nigerians here is that the seeming drop in food prices was due to importation, which would adversely affect affect local production in the future

And have you asked him whether we are Importing garri,yam,plantain,cassava etc to ascertain the booting of his intellect?

TrippleEEEs:
In the end, we will all suffer the consequences of bad governance together regardless of party affiliation.

What some Nigerians fail to realize is that this is not a competition to see "whose" candidate or party wins the presidency come 2027. Rather, it's a collective effort to saveour country and our future. Add another 4 years to your age and you'll understand that you might not live long to see a better Nigeria unless we drop this childish mentality and face reality. APC has failed and there's no reason to give them a second term unless you are benefiting from the open theft

Since the creation of Nigeria,tell us one govt that the people said had passed during its tenure in Nigeria and let us compare it to this Tinubu govt that almost all authentic economists in the world are rating high.
Are we rating the govt on only insecurity that GEJ and his Northern cohorts helped nurtured?

Ofodirinwa:
Nna, continue ruling until 3300 AD, enemies of Igbo progress are permanently cursed.

Yet,only Ibadan city is more developed than the entire South East Igboland infrastructurally.
Okpoko,Obiagu etc are worst than Kanke that you posted.
There are signs of dripping poverty in your enclave making your people flee especially to the SW.
Posting selected pics will not help you.

anonimi:
Clueless Tinubu is importing the alternatives to them, which depresses demand for them.

Armchair economist

OKOATA:
As usual propaganda machine. Abeg video wey I watch point out where Obi said as you claimed. I wonder if Obi was a Yoruba man today maybe you guys will hate him this much.

lol
You are still denying the obvious.
Ok,listen very well and come and tell us what he said maybe he is speaking in Igbo language.

The drop of food prices in the market has killed our farmers. It has put them into more poverty.

These days, none of you mention Deloitte as a former workplace. Why?

During his time in the United States in the 1970s and early 1980s, President Bola Tinubu held a variety of roles ranging from survival jobs during his studies to professional accounting positions at major global firms.

After graduating from Chicago State University in 1979, Tinubu worked as an auditor and financial analyst for several prominent American corporations:
Arthur Andersen......One of the world’s then-"Big Eight" accounting firms.

Deloitte, Haskins & Sells..... Now part of Deloitte, where he gained experience auditing Fortune 500 companies like General Motors and Procter & Gamble.

GTE Services Corporation: At the time, the largest communication and utility company in the U.S..

He reportedly served as a consultant, helping to establish their accounting and auditing systems.

To fund his education at Richard J. Daley College and Chicago State University, he took on several menial jobs such as....
Dishwasher,Taxi/Cab Driver,Night Security Guard,Academic Employment.

During his time at Chicago State University, he was a student tutor and taught remedial classes for his peers.

FatimaAbubakar:
You can tell these lies to kids in nursery schools. Nigerians are wiser. First class my foot. Tinumbu is a political fraudster. He graduated from a secondary school even before the school was established. Who does that?

It is a global world.You can even find out by yourself and AI will quote official documents from Chicago State University for you.

Did Tinubu get first class in Chicago State University?


Yes, Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu graduated from Chicago State University (CSU) with honors.
While various sources use terms like "First Class" to describe his performance, official records from the university specify the following:
Degree: Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a major in Accounting.
Graduation Date: June 22, 1979.

Honors: CSU’s Office of the Registrar confirmed he graduated "with honors".
Academic Performance: Reports based on his academic records indicate he achieved a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 3.54 out of 4.0.

Awards: During his time at CSU, he was reportedly recognized with the Outstanding Student’s Award, the University Scholar’s Award, and a Certificate of Merit in Accounting and Finance.

The university has repeatedly affirmed his graduation in response to legal challenges and public inquiries regarding his credentials.
