Okoroawusa:
Which Nigerians? Be specific

Sane Nigerians

Ordinary Nigerians who have borne the brunt of Tinubu's wicked and draconian policies masquerading as economic reforms.

Certainly, it is not only the North, Nigerians as a whole will not forget Tinubu for the untold hardship, strife, hunger, and starvation his leadership has brought upon them

I read every bit of the entire article, and I admit that Nigerians do not know who we have today as the president of Nigeria. Even his supporters don't truly know the man they are supporting.

Another Peter Obi thread.
Obviously, he is Tinubu, APC, and the Agbadoos’ nightmare.

He lives rent-free in their medulla oblongata.

It was from the propaganda mills of the APC who are scared of facing the ADC coalition in the election

ProudlyLagos:
indeed, what was the meaningful progress he brought in tiny Anambala in his 8yrs of failed stewardship? Is Anambala now the investment destination? The list of states that attracted FDI was released yesterday and no state from Sadyeast featured not even the almighty Anambala was on the list. If he had through set the state on the path of growth, Anambala should be among the top investment destination in the country today but that’s not even happening and even the people are deserting the region for a more prosperous Lagos and yorubaland 😂😂😂

Is this the reason Tinubu has failed so woefully and spectacularly that even his aide, Daniel Bwala, acknowledged that even if you give Tinubu 30 years, nothing will work?

Whether Soludo was referring to Peter Obi or not is immaterial. What matters is that Obi has consistently reiterated that four years is enough to make meaningful progress and set a nation on the path of growth. You don’t need eight yearsor thirty. If you lack the capacity and competence to deliver, even eternity won’t be enough. As Daniel Bwala rightly said, even if you give Tinubu thirty years, nothing will change because he simply doesn't have what it takes to move this country forward

zero8zero:
But Obidient were already wailing and asking Obi to intervene because they have been marginalized in the coalition. Pls show us how many Obidients do you have on that list 🤣🤣

Maybe you should ask the Obidient movement...I don't speak for the Obidients

Softmirror:
Lol 😂 David Mark calm down, calm down, calm down......😁😁😁😁. Stop the child's play. 😁
INEC no recognize you o! .......you wan carry dem enter one chance. 😁😁😁

Has INEC recognized the fourth APC chairman in two years?

Nigerians are solidly behind the coalition

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to stop announcing monetary rewards in US dollars, saying it shows a lack of respect for Nigeria’s own currency, the Naira.


The party’s spokesman, Bolaji Abdullahi, made the statement in a post on X on Tuesday.

He reacted to the recent cash rewards given to Nigeria’s national female football team, the Super Falcons, and the basketball team, D’Tigress, for their achievements.


While thanking the President for recognizing the efforts of the athletes, Abdullahi criticized the choice of currency used for the reward.

“We thank President BAT for amply rewarding our victorious Falcons and D’Tigress. But we find it strange that the President has repeatedly shown his disregard for the Nigerian sovereign currency by announcing the awards in US Dollars,” he wrote.

He ended the post by referencing the National Orientation Agency (NOA), saying: “Mr. President sir, NOA says, Stop the Naira Abuse.”

It takes real balls to become a narcötîcs bóss, a certificáte fórgér, and an identity thief then go on to construct a covert pipeline linking the coffers of the Lagos State Treasury to private pockets, siphoning and milking the collective wealth of Lagosians for over two decades and counting. And now, to grab, snatch, and run away with the entire nation inflicting untold hardship, strife, hunger, and starvation on the citizens through wicked, draconian policies masquerading as economic reforms that takes audacity beyond measure

Goodlady:
I will report you to Seun and all the moderators of this forum for cyber stalking. Then a go carry ya matter to FCT minister, house of assembly, NAPTIP, VDM, NPF, NSCDC, FBI & Putin cos you dey look for my trouble.

Come on, I mean no harm. Just a simple question that requires a simple answer

Tinubu will handle the economy.
Shettima will handle security.
It's been failure upon failure...from top to bottom.

Goodlady:
Just imagine it sir.
Though you're possibly not his fan based on some of ya posts many have read here but he deserved benefit of doubt at least till end of 2026.

Which higher post?

Goodlady:
The way ya party sef deal with Nigerians tough. We dey feel am wotowoto for Abuja.

You don't think deeper when summing up political calculations.
Tulumbu will rather give Weenkay more higher post. Hate him or love him he can reward loyalty. So Lamido is just using his political oblivion pain relief drugs.

Which higher post

has done nothing monumental for the Yoruba people, except trample the sacred ethos of Omoluabi, ridicule the principles of probity in governance, and drag us into the narcotic-forfeiture history of shame that is entirely alien to the Yoruba soul.

Let us state it clearly. Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s narcotics-related forfeiture of over $460,000 in a U.S. court is not a whisper of rumour. It is a documented, certified judicial fact. Yet his fanatics would rather gaslight the nation than confront the moral rot at the apex of their political cathedral.

This aptly describes Tinubu and his Agbadoos.

UpaIweka:
Very true, a bigger liar n fraudster. E easy to de loot N250 million monthly from Anambra to his aerodome apartment in apapa ?

Bro, e no easy. He is indeed tge bigger thief.

You should be deeply ashamed to compare ₦250 million to a bullion van D-lord, a known certificáte fórgér, identity thiéf, and power-hungry buccanéér deeply entrenched in criminal state capture. This is a man who designed and perfected a financial conduit, channeling public funds from the Lagos State treasury straight into his personal pocket, through fronts like Alpha Beta, systematically siphoning and draining the commonwealth of Lagosians for over two decades.

Today, he stands as the embodiment of electoral malpractice a grab it, snatch it, and run away with it rigger whose presidency has become synonymous with wickedness and draconian. His regime is now widely seen as the most oppressive and draconian in this country’s history, marked by widespread hardship, rising strife, and pervasive hunger, high inflation rate, hightened insecurity all driven by disastrous economic policies deceitfully branded as reforms.

Factcheck0001:
any prove of drugs against Tinubu?

Goooooogle it

Jayhome24:
Are you alright? Pls when did you hear Tinubu went for medical trip pls drop the list of those time and date?

If you don't know what to say kindly keep quiet.

If you think the President hasn’t left the country multiple times, often for 'private' or 'health-related' reasons, then you’ve either not been paying attention or you're being deliberately dishonest. The records are public, from his Paris 'stopovers' to his frequent London trips. Instead of asking me for dates, ask your government for transparency. Or better still, Google it. Ignorance isn't a flex

Mr Obi said, ‘‘You will find no stains of rigging or violence associated with my name.’’


A former Anambra State governor and Labour Party chieftain, Peter Obi, on Tuesday has said he has no “stain” of election rigging and violence on his name.

He promised to deal with corruption and redirect Nigeria in four years.

In a statement on Tuesday, Mr Obi reaffirmed his vow to serve one term if elected president, adding “In four years we can confront corruption head-on, redirecting resources to priority areas.”

He stated, “For instance, the trillions used to acquire new presidential jets and other unnecessary expenses at this time could have been channelled into education, healthcare, or infrastructure.”

Challenging Nigerians to investigate to prove his political antecedent, Mr Obi said, “Throughout my political journey, I have never been involved in thuggery, the snatching of ballot boxes, or any form of electoral malpractice.”

“I challenge anyone: conduct your investigations. You will find no stains of rigging or violence associated with my name. I have always chosen the path of peace, principle, and civility.”

Mr Obi stated that his pledge to serve a single term and not seek re-election if elected president was not driven by desperation for power.

He noted, “If the sacrifice required of me is four years of sincere, accountable leadership, so be it. I have never been desperate in the pursuit of power, or anything else, for that matter. There are some traits associated with desperation, which in no way are in any of my political behaviours in the past and now, like engaging in overly aggressive rhetoric or actions to prove a point or gain attention, becoming overly defensive or reactive to criticism, often to the point of appearing paranoid.

“Making unrealistic or unfulfillable promises to win support or approval, resorting to personal attacks or character assassination to discredit opponents or frequently changing positions or policies to suit immediate political needs.’’

Mr Obi, who served two terms as Anambra State governor, stirred reactions after vowing to serve one term if elected president.

Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo, noted that any politician promising to serve one term needed psychiatric evaluation.

Also, spokesperson for the President Bola Tinubu, Bayo Onanuga, described Mr Obi a liar, recalling how he vowed never to leave his former party, All Progressives Grand Alliance, only to abandon it a few years later.

Obi is bigger than Tinubu

The Osun APC behaves like jesters.

President Tinubu has spent more days abroad than in Nigeria, often seeking medical treatment, yet during all that time, the Osun APC has never questioned his whereabouts

This is to be expected, as Lagos has become volatile and hostile lately

SmartPolician:
Yes, this is critical. Tinubu should also instruct the leaders from the South West to start public enlightenment campaigns on ritual killings.

Not just ritual killings, but skull mining

It’s an indisputable fact.

If you disagree, argue with your keypad.

Mods please move this to the jokes section

This is pure comedy skit

Let me echo the words of a Nairalander: a repentant terrorist is a dead terrorist.

Parents, teachers, higher institutions’ students body and other concerned persons have blamed the poor West African Senior School Certificate Examination, WASSCE, results on system failure.


The West African Examinations Council, WAEC, released the results for school candidates on Monday, July 5.



Out of the 1,969,313 candidates who sat for the examination, only 754,545 candidates, representing 38.32%, obtained credits and above in a minimum of five subjects, including English Language and Mathematics.

Meanwhile, in the 2024 WASSCE, 72.12% of candidates obtained credits and above in a minimum of five subjects, including English Language and Mathematics.

According to the Head of Nigeria National Office, WAEC, Dr. Amos Dangut, this was a 33.8% decrease in performance.

Students relied on candlelight, torchlight – Parent
Reacting to the poor results, a concerned parent from Imo State, Oluchi Kalu, who contacted Vanguard, said: “In Imo State, the WAEC results were quite shocking — many students failed English.

“They wrote the exams under difficult conditions.

“Some had to rely on candles and torchlights due to power outages. Yet, it appears no concessions were made during marking, despite these challenges.

“You cannot keep students waiting late into the night to sit for exams and then mark their scripts without considering the circumstances.

“I witnessed some of my neighbours’ children returning home in the wee hours after their exams. And this wasn’t limited to Imo — it happened in other states as well,” Kalu added.

It’s system failure – NUT
For the Nigeria Union of Teachers, NUT, the development boils down to system failure.

The Chairman of the Lagos State Wing of the NUT, Comrade Akintoye Hassan, said: “Let us first take a look at the condition under which some of the candidates sat for some of the papers, especially the English Language paper.

“The Council said it discovered that the paper leaked, and instead of cancelling it, went ahead to let students write it at odd hours.

“The students, who had conditioned their minds to write the paper in the morning, were delayed till evening and even night in some cases.


“They were not allowed to go out. May be some of them did not eat even at that point in time.

“When the paper was to be written finally, in most cases, the students did so using phone torchlight and other embarrassing sources of light because most of the schools have no power supply sources.

“Does it mean schools don’t deserve to be provided with electricity even if they are not residential? Is electricity not one of the things to aid learning?

“Now, some people would want to heap the whole blame on the teachers. Apart from the above, which cannot be the sole factor for the development, so many other factors are responsible too.

“Some students only want to be literate, and forget about one big certificate,” he stated.

Tech hitches like UTME – NANS
The National Public Relations Officer of NANS, Comrade Adeyemi Ajasa, opined that the condition under which the candidates wrote some papers, especially English was terrible.
“What do you expect? The conduct of the exam in some instances left much to be desired.

“Look at the day they wrote the English Language paper. It was horrific. Candidates were drained emotionally and were tired.

“But a lot of other factors also contributed. The technical hitches in the exam were what some candidates also experienced during the UTME,” the students’ body noted.

Do we have the teachers? – NAPTAN
Also, National President of the National Parent Teacher Association of Nigeria, NAPTAN, Alhaji Haruna Danjuma, opined that a combination of factors was responsible for the abysmal performance.

“One may say the level of examination malpractice has gone down. But that is just one of the factors,” he said.


But, he asked: “Do we have the teachers that can deliver what is needed in the required number?

“Many states have refused to engage new teachers to fill vacancies. Also, some parents cannot afford to buy the necessary textbooks for the wards and children.

“The prices have gone out of reach.”

Recommendations
For Oluchi Kalu from Imo; she recommended that mock examinations be organised urgently to help the affected students recover and prepare for future assessments under better conditions.

For NUT, “Our challenge is not what we are experiencing now, but what we ought to do in the past that we have failed to do.


“Our young ones too don’t take the issue of education serious again when they see those who go to school and are certificated doing menial jobs to eke out a living.”

NANS’ recommendations: “There is need to take a holistic look at the education sector, and redress the situation.

“Teachers must be motivated. More of them should be employed and trained to impart the needed knowledge on the students.

“Also, what about facilities too in our schools? We are pleading with the government to please pay priority attention to the education sector,” Comrade Ajasa said.

For NAPTAN: “We need to also equip our schools properly. Teachers welfare is also critical.


“When a teacher is thinking of what to eat and how to meet basic needs, how can he give the best to the students?

“Parents also have to take more interest in the education of their children,” he said.

It is only buccaneering power grabbers and desperados who will disagree, those whom Daniel Bwala himself admitted that, even if given 30 years, nothing would work.
