We are so lucky that ebola happened under PDP... cos this APC government would have handled it in a disastrous way

Just as disastrous as the way they handled subsidy removal.

Honestly, the resultant deaths would have been calamitous, while they carried on with their usual diet of lies, falsehoods, and propaganda.

Nobody wants Tinubu. Even APC is tired of Tinubu

givedemwotowoto:
There will be retribution for a lot of people after Tinubu is defeated in 2027

It’s gonna be revolutionary…-like.

HacheNoire:
Ojuelegba reporting!

The great demigod scared of protest!

Even the dwarf called Netanyahu visited the US despite the protest.

His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) is on vacation and spending quality time to refresh his mind, body and soul.

A dedicated patriot who has stood at the frontlines with a notary regime would never be sacred of a protest by some unscrupulous lots.

Should we bet? Tinubu won’t be in the U.S. for the 81st United Nations General Assembly

Where are the TATA boys who were screaming, “Lamidi Apapa, the authentic Labour Party National Chairman?

President Bola Tinubu’s planned trip to New York for the 81st United Nations General Assembly is reportedly in doubt after security concerns were raised over a proposed protest by Nigerians in the United States.Follow Federal Policy

Vice President Kashim Shettima is expected to represent Nigeria at the international gathering if Tinubu’s reported decision not to travel is confirmed.

The President had been scheduled to leave Nigeria for New York between September 22 and 28, 2026, and was expected to deliver Nigeria’s address to world leaders on September 23.

However, according to a security source, the planned trip had been cancelled after intelligence agencies reportedly raised concerns about a demonstration being organised by Nigerians in New York.

The source, who requested anonymity, said those behind the planned protest intended to confront and heckle Tinubu over the controversy surrounding records being sought from US law enforcement agencies.Download Interactive Maps

According to the source, the protest was linked to attempts to obtain documents concerning Tinubu’s activities in Chicago in the early 1990s, with opposition figures in Nigeria allegedly involved in mobilising Nigerians living in the United States.

The reported development comes as a separate legal dispute over the release of US government records concerning Tinubu continues to attract political attention on both sides of the Atlantic.Follow Federal Policy

At the centre of the controversy is a Freedom of Information Act case pending before the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.

The case involves requests for records from American government agencies, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Drug Enforcement Administration.

The renewed political campaign surrounding the documents has been associated with Von Batten-Montague-York, L.C., a Washington-based lobbying firm reportedly engaged by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, who is seeking the presidency in 2027 on the platform of the African Democratic Congress.Read Political News

The firm has been advocating the release of records it says are held by the FBI, DEA and other US agencies in relation to Tinubu.

The lobbying campaign became more controversial after the firm alleged that individuals connected to the Nigerian President attempted to offer one of its senior officials $3m in connection with the records.Download Interactive Maps

The controversy took another turn on Wednesday when Trump reportedly appointed the lobbying firm’s Managing Partner, Dr Karl Von Batten, to serve as a commissioner on a White House presidential commission.

The firm announced the appointment through its verified X account, describing Von Batten as someone with a “longstanding commitment to public service, leadership” and the United States.

The development involving the UNGA trip also comes just a day after the Presidency issued an explanation of the legal dispute involving the FBI and DEA records.

Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, said the case had been wrongly portrayed in some quarters as a criminal proceeding against Tinubu.Follow Federal Policy

“For clarity, the matter is a civil records-disclosure dispute under the United States Freedom of Information Act. It is not a criminal case against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, nor has the court found him guilty of any criminal wrongdoing,” Onanuga said.

The Presidency explained that the legal dispute originated from FOIA requests submitted by Aaron Greenspan in 2022 for records relating to Tinubu.

After some US agencies declined to confirm or deny the existence of certain records or withheld requested materials, Greenspan filed a federal case in Washington in 2023.Read Political News

Tinubu was later permitted to participate in the proceedings as an intervenor.

Several agencies have since been removed from the case following court rulings in their favour, leaving the FBI and DEA as the major focus of the remaining dispute.

According to the Presidency, the two agencies have already provided 399 pages of records in compliance with court orders, but parts of the documents were redacted.

Greenspan has challenged the decision to withhold portions of the records, while the FBI and DEA have argued that US law prevents the disclosure of some of the information.

The agencies have cited legal protections covering grand jury materials, court orders, privileged communications, law enforcement information, personal privacy and information that could expose confidential sources or investigative methods.

Tinubu has also invoked FOIA Exemption 7(C), which provides protection for certain personal information where disclosure could result in an unwarranted invasion of privacy.

“The release or withholding of records under FOIA does not, by itself, establish criminal liability,” the Presidency said. “The case concerns access to government records and the proper application of statutory exemptions.”

Itiswell234:
When Buhari came to waste 4yrs, the North still worshiped him. Gave him another 4yrs. Now it's the turn of the South, Tinubu must go right? Una NEVER see anything. Tinubu must waste his own 8yrs yrs too

When comparing Tinubu with Buhari, show figures, numbers and evidence.

Don’t make blanket statements.

Compare the poverty rate.
Compare fuel pump prices.
Compare food prices.
Compare the naira-to-dollar exchange rate.

That’s how you engage in a meaningful conversation, not with propaganda and selective memory.

And for the umpteenth time, don’t bring this “it’s the turn of the South” argument here. It is completely irrelevant. Nobody is discussing it today.

Besides, Tinubu, in collaboration with his political allies, helped truncate an opportunity for the South to have an unbroken eight year tenure under Goodluck Jonathan in 2015. Have you suddenly forgot that

So, if he isn’t re-elected for a second term, if APC does not win just as Sanwo-Olu said, the sky will not fall.

Tinubu won’t be the first president to lose reelection, and he certainly won’t be the last.

In fact, if he loses, Nigeria as a country will be better for it.

Tinubu has done his best. He has absolutely nothing else to offer.

He has already wasted four years. He shouldn’t be allowed to waste four more.

Tinubunomics is a gagatuan disaster

seunmsg:
Go and read about the case and stop asking silly question.

Telling me to go and read the case' is not an answer to a simple question

The question was straightforward: Are you saying the FBI and DEA returned the $460,000 to Tinubu, yes or no?

And for the record, the documented issue is that $460,000 was forfeited to the U.S. government

So if the answer is yes, provide the proof. If it’s no, simply say no.

No need for “stop asking silly question” insults. A simple yes or no with evidence would have sufficed. When the facts are on your side, you shouldn’t need insults to defend them

seunmsg:
lol. A civil forfeiture in which the FBI returned money to the accused and then asked the court to dismiss the case with prejudice is absolutely nothing.

Even in plea bargaining agreement, the accused is charged to court, convicted and then given a light penalty. He’s never discharged and acquitted and then given back the proceed of the crime. The FBI will also never issue a letter through the US Embassy declaring that the person has no criminal record.


So, you guys should stop chasing shadows and start campaigning based on issues. This same propaganda failed in 2023, it will fail again in 2027.

seunmsg, let me get this straight: are you saying the FBI and DEA returned the $460,000 to Tinubu?

seunmsg:
I’m glad the president’s team has decided to clarify things instead of letting the liars keep rehashing same take with different spins daily.

What exactly is there to clarify?

Was Bayo Onanuga with Tinubu when he was running the streets of Chicago in the ’90s, culminating in the forfeiture of $460,000 to the U.S. government over funds the court found represented proceeds of narcotics trafficking?

Or has Onanuga now also been appointed Tinubu’s official historian of Chicago?

APC will lose and the country will be better for it

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has praised President Bola Tinubu’s democratic credentials, saying the ruling party’s loss of the Osun governorship election shows that democracy is taking firmer root in Nigeria.


Sanwo-Olu said this on Thursday at the seventh annual lecture organised by Freedom Online at the Sheraton Hotel in Ikeja, Lagos, where he discussed Nigeria’s democracy and preparations for the 2027 elections.

He cited the August 15 Osun election, which was won by Governor Ademola Adeleke of another political party, as evidence of Tinubu’s commitment to democratic principles. Adeleke defeated the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Bola Oyebamiji, by more than 60,000 votes.

Tinubu congratulated Adeleke after the election, describing his victory as a “fitting assurance” that democracy would continue to flourish under his administration. He later met the governor at the Presidential Villa in Abuja and urged him to unite the state.


“There was a time in this country when ‘federal might’ was a phrase that a ruling party used without irony,” Sanwo-Olu said.

“Under this President, the ruling party can lose a state in the South-West in an election year, and the sky does not fall. That is what a maturing democracy looks like.


“This President is a lifelong democrat, and he means to leave behind a stronger democracy than he inherited, not only for Nigerians but as an example to a continent that badly needs one.”

Sanwo-Olu said electoral reforms and technology had improved Nigeria’s electoral process but stressed the need for the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to be fully prepared for 2027.

“INEC must be ready in every polling unit on the 16th of January and again on the 6th of February, and each of us has a duty to help it be ready,” he said.

The governor also warned politicians against violence and electoral malpractice, insisting that no political victory was worth a Nigerian life.

“A mandate is only as strong as the process that produced it. No office in this land is worth the life of a single Nigerian and no victory won by the wrong means is a victory at all,” he said.

He urged voters to judge governors by their performance and challenged the media to hold political leaders accountable, including those within their own ranks.

“I am not asking for a compliant press.

“A compliant press is of no use to a democracy; it flatters the powerful and abandons the public,” he said.


“I am asking for a rigorous press. Check the facts, mine included. Call out disinformation wherever it comes from, including from my own side.

“In the weeks ahead, the most dangerous lies will not come from newspapers. They will come from anonymous accounts and doctored videos and you are the institution best placed to answer them.”

Una go explain tire till.....

The truth is, what exactly is Tinubu using to campaign? And what story is APC telling Nigerians?

Ezeama400:
Moving from one thread to another pasting the same nonsense.
Sorry for you.

You should know him by now. He’s a Tata boy....daily target must be met

There's anger in the land
Everybody dey vex

Tareq1105:
Ofunaofu, you have problemseees.

Tinubu is a catastrophe.

It’s visible to the blind and audible to the deaf. Look around you, the evidence is everywhere.

What will Tinubu tell Nigerians he wants to do in his second term that he couldn’t achieve in his first? To many Nigerians, his second term will be even worse than what they are witnessing so far.

That’s the despicable level Tinubu’s so-called reforms have brought this country to.

And some people say that the reforms are working. Actually, they are working to ensure that Nigerians become poorer and poorer.

Tareq1105:
Ofunaofu, you have a lot of work ahead of you bcoz the Atikulooter you're hawking like gala is not marketable.

All the policies he's pushing out in the last two weeks are not realistic. They're just to curry votes of Nigerians which he wouldn't get.

We understand that your principal is in his last contest, and he's ready to fight Tinubu both in Court and on policies. Atiku has turned to a Bull 🐂 in a Chinese shop.

It's all about the last kick of a dying horse and he's ready to bring down the roof if he doesn't get it.

So, you have a lot to do. Probably you start with clearing Atiku from the allegations of Obasanjo that called him THIEF in his book My Watch.

Then you defend him on how he sold Nigeria properties under Privatization Committee as chairman.

You should also touch on the $16b Power money which Atiku himself confirmed that he gave the contract to a foreign coy, paid full amount to the coy and the company disappeared till today.

Ofunaofu, I believe you're alive when Deborah Samuel was killed in Sokoto years ago and you still remember what your principal did. So, having a Christian VP doesn't portray your principal as someone that can be trusted when things like that reoccur.

So ofunaofu, you have a lot to do than what you're doing currently to convince Nigerians about your principal.

Rantings of a typical tata boy

Newton1045:
Which Atiku. He can't even get there.
I would have said let's try him for a month.
He shud forget it. In 2031 he can compete with his northern associates. By then my vote will go to the most secular northerner, not fanatics that build mosques instead of business area, multitude of children instead of creating jobs

Is Tinubu creating jobs?

Newton1045:
I can see it is not easy but Tinubu is one of the best president Nigerians have had in a while, Atiku can't even lace his shoes

You lie bro

Can we have the numbers, figures

Comparing with the immediate past Buhari regime

seunmsg:
Hundeyin has been missing in action in the current election cycle. Ikemefuna Okeke has taken the FBI gig he handled the last time out. Now, he’s throwing words around just to seek relevance. Just mix FBI, Tinubu, politics, drugs together in a post and boom, Obidients will swarm all over it like ants all over sugar. Works like magic

Typical of a tata boy.

Spew some bulaba-balablu words together like their principal, throw Obidients into the mix, and then fan himself like he just said something profound.

Not just fuel prices but minimum wage

You mean the biggest beneficiary of your wicked and draconian policies masquerading as reforms?

Alliswell248:
drug lord as declared by ipo/b criminal court, umuahia branch. calling someone who was not arrested, convicted a drug lord shows how low your thinking is.

You are thinking high I guess

Ooni, may your days be long.

But Tinubu doesn’t intend to end poverty. In fact, his regime is already going down in history as the only one whose so called “economic reforms” have been so calamitous that they succeeded in dragging even more Nigerians into extreme poverty.

The records are there. History, unfortunately, keeps receipts.

National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, has acknowledged growing reservations about the direction of the Nigerian economy.

At a policy roundtable held in Abuja on Tuesday and organised by the All Progressives Congress Professional Forum, the APC Chairman assured Nigerians that the present administration would soon shift its focus from macroeconomic stability to microeconomic prosperity.

Checks revealed that amidst growing external reserves, an increase in Gross Domestic Product, and relative stability in the foreign exchange rate, Nigerians have continued to groan over poor purchasing power.

Professor Yilwatda, who represented President Bola Tinubu at the event to present the scorecards of his administration, declared that the next phase of Renewed Hope would translate to more food, stronger purchasing power for the average Nigerian.

He said: “A good GDP number does not automatically put food on a family’s table. Stronger reserves do not pay school fees. A stronger stock market does not automatically put money into the pocket of a market woman.

“Therefore, we are in the next phase of Renewed Hope which must translate macroeconomic stability into microeconomic prosperity: more food, more jobs, lower inflation, affordable credit, reliable power, more manufacturing, greater exports and stronger purchasing power.”

In a veiled allusion to the declaration by the Presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, Atiku Abubakar, to return to the fuel subsidy regime, the APC National Chairman advised Nigerians to pick between consolidation of the progress in the economy and a return to the years of fiscal pressures.

He said: “As we approach 2027, Nigerians will hear many promises. Some will promise to reverse the reforms; others will promise prosperity without confronting the structural problems that brought us here. The question is whether we go backwards or consolidate and improve the progress we have begun.

“Do we abandon infrastructure investment or accelerate it? Do we discourage investors or make Nigeria one of Africa’s preferred investment destinations? Do we allow our ports to serve our domestic economy or position Nigeria primarily as a maritime gateway to the wider African hinterland?

“For the All Progressives Congress, the answer is clear. We choose progress, productivity, investment, infrastructure, innovation, Nigerian enterprise, exports, human capital, and we choose President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. And we choose the ambition of a $1 trillion Nigerian economy by 2030 by Mr President for our common prosperity.

“We must power our industries, develop our digital economy, educate our young people and mobilise the private capital required to transform our productive capacity. Above all, we must begin to see Nigeria differently, not merely as a large domestic market, but as a potential maritime, industrial, digital and logistics powerhouse for Africa.

“The foundation has been laid. The opportunity is before us. The work has begun. Now we must take Nigeria from reform to results, from results to growth, from growth to prosperity, and from prosperity to a $1 trillion economy by 2030.”

Stretching further the narrative of the gains of the present economic policies, the APC National Chairman listed the establishment of social investment programmes such as NELFUND and CREDICORP, which he cautioned must not be reversed.

“We are investing in the future of our young people because they are the greatest asset of the Nigerian economy. Through NELFUND, we are expanding access to higher education so that financial circumstances do not prevent young Nigerians from acquiring the knowledge they need to succeed. We are also supporting young people in technical and vocational education through grants and skills-development opportunities, while programmes to train young Nigerians in digital technologies are equipping a new generation with the skills required for the global digital economy.

“At the same time, through initiatives such as CREDICORP, we are expanding access to responsible credit so that workers, entrepreneurs and businesses can acquire productive assets, grow their enterprises and create jobs. This is not simply social investment; it is an investment in the productive capacity of Nigeria and in the young Nigerians who will ultimately build and drive our $1 trillion economy

Tinubu dished out hunger, starvation, worsening insecurity, high inflation rate, high food prices etc

Atiku will reverse all the wicked and draconian policies mascurading as economic reforms Tinubu inflicted on Nigerians
