But there's nothing silly about what he said.
The use of drones will greatly reduce our reliance on the use of Able bodied soldiers.

That way we can attack actual terrorist hideouts without having to risk human lives.
We can even have military drone centers on most highways as their response time will make it harder for kidnappers to operate on our roads.
Think about it.

Baba, the problem with most black people is poor reading:
Also, politicians have made u believe u must suffer, manage life until u die
How much is inverter? Hahaha, bro, to get inverter to power at least two AC, such setup will cost u more than 10m. Your present spent 15b on solar setup. As usual, una go resort to manage life.
Read the article again, the article is talking about the reality of the current economy. It says, with 30m per year before, u can live a very comfortable luxury life, high standard of living.
But not anymore. U cant achieve such standard in today's economy. That is the point of the article.
Carry a wife, a husband and maybe two kids fly go to vacation to South Africa here, or morocco, and see if u wont burn more than 7m
Like I said, to live a high standard of life with such income now, u will struggle, unlike before, u wont struggle. That is the point.
And the fact that more than 70 percent of Nigerians dont see such money shows that naija is a very poor country, does not dismiss the fact of the notion.

You and your fellow evil northern born to rule are the ones behind the Fulani led terrorism and insurgency ravaging the northern part of the country.

Your greed and desperation for power is why you’re sponsoring the insecurity all over your region. You have absolutely no value for the sanctity of human life. We saw how you played evil politics on the grave of Deborah and we are now witnessing how you are now trying to use the insecurity you’re sponsoring to score very cheap political points.

You all have failed. Your evil agenda will be defeated and Nigeria shall win the battle against terrorism. You will never become the president of Nigeria and power will remain in the south till 2031.

Bla bla bla. The article says 30m a year can still make U struggle.
Do U know how much U need to install an inverter that will power at least two AC? Some of U just blab here.
The article says U can live off 30m present if U are ready to drastically reduce your standard of living which U were used to before.
Before the present administration, 30m per year is enough to make U live a very comfortable life. Not anymore.
Have U tried vacation with two kids, a wife and your self. How much does it cost now? Or U don't assume that vacation is part of living well?
I just dey laugh Una for this country.
Even taking local flight with your two kids, wife and your self, for a return ticket, U may need to cut down to just once trip par year.
Look, humans can live off any amount, including 500k per year. The post simply said during this present administration, U will need to struggle if U want to maintain the quality of life 30m per year gave U before this present administration. Remember, for 30m income, U will be paying govt alone over 8m as income tax
The only way to survive on that income is to drastically reduce Ur standard of living in this present reality You can't live how U used to live.

ozo13:
help me ask them ooo.may be he that is talking is going home with 500k-1M monthly oo and na then dey talk pass

Princedapace:
U are speaking from the mindset of poor!
30m supposed to make u live well, but due to inflation, u cant anymore. 30m supposed to place u as a middle class, but due to the situation of the country, u arent even close to that.
By the time u fuel ur car, fuel ur gen, pursue 24/7 electricity, eat healthy fruits, live in comfortable area, pay children school fee, use quality health care, eat good foods that are healthy, baba, u don drain already. If u come add flight for ur family, vacation, u are finished. Can u now see?
Some of u dont understand the post and it is basically due to poverty

Sheuns:
Those posts above are funny.

They forget one thing, the more you earn, the more you’re likely to spend.

Eba50:
south and east wont vote atiku. we will stick with obi, but can half of north follow kwankwa?

Lordhanzo:
okay he won’t win. Then why the rigging ? Shows atiku is just as useless as tinubu

People supporting atiku all them prof yusuf, malami, David mark, renewals, babachir lawal. And other currupt entities in adc are just greedy disgruntled politicians seeking to replace corruption with corruption. Nothing new there. Same political fools





Only ndc presents hope .

Then in your mind the people supporting Obi are virgins. And you people were crying for those same people to support Obi. You can only fool yourself but you can't fool all of us.

Tenrack:
what would have been your response to her "old" message? I'd like to know how you plan to game her. Cause It would have been lights out for me. No further discussions from my end. I'll tell her no issue.

givedemwotowoto:
I specifically said NW, you don carry am go entire north, and you can't even control your emotions. Perhaps you need psychological evaluation to get your emotions in check.

MiddleDimension:
We already do.

Which one? Education!

Education is not cheap anywhere in the world including in Nigeria. If we pay the meagre amount we pay at the universities and in some cases, pay nothing at the primary and secondary levels, then it is because the government HEAVILY subsidizes it.

What we say we are not paying again, is the subsidy on petrol and such products; it is too expensive and we cannot afford it anymore.

sleek214:
Stop deceiving yourself, the North is 85% for Atiku. 12% for Tinubu and 3% for Obi/Kwankwanso

givedemwotowoto:
NW is not going to give Tinubu the number of votes he got in 2023 with Buhari gone and Kwankwaso now in serious power play

Northern leaders and business moguls will be secretly backing Kwankwaso knowing this contest is really between PO/Kwankwaso vs Atiku

Among the 3 major candidates, who do you think will get the biggest financial backing from moguls like Dangote? Who do you think gave the green light for Kwankwaso to work with PO?

1. Saudi uses about 60 billion dollars, which is way above our budget of 40 billion dollars for this year, to keep fuel cheap. Unless you want us to take our entire budget, borrow 20-30 billion on top, and use it to fund subsidy for fuel so that we can all have cheap fuel, while salaries go unpaid and projects go unfunded, and everything grinds to a halt, but hey, you got cheap fuel that you cannot pay for now...lol......you better not bring Saudi here.

If Nigeria wanted to be like Saudi, we would have to earn something like 7-10 times what we earn from oil to be able to fund such subsides on fuel. SInce such money does not come overnight, it is either you want us to borrow the money...which would create the largest ever debt in the history of mankind, or you just accept we cannot fund oil subsides for now


2. Russia? Russia pays 22 billion dollars per annum to keep subsides on fuel. And it is not like that money is easy to come by.

And their fuel price per liter are between...466-1000 naira. Yes, it is low, but it costs a lot of money...which Russia can afford because it runs a diversifed economy...that produces industrial goods for export. Does Nigeria do that?

Nigeria relies on 1.8 million bpd revenue for crude oil. Our budget this year was about 54 trillion naira, to subsidise fuel to N200 per liter would require 22-24 trillion naira. Like I said, since we have no budget for subsidy...having a budget now, would mean taking money from other sectors of the budget, including money we borrowed...to fund the subsidy budget.

You know that means we go borrow more, worsening our debt, sha?

We are not RUssia or Saudi..we are Nigeria, a nation that since independence has not diversifed our economy and has a very poor tax uptake. And sadly tinubu dey continue am up till now

So, please forget subsidy, unless you want your debt to be around 500 trillion naira or more in two years time.

nairalanda1:
Austria ..fuel costs 1.79-1.84 EUROS...which is about N2861 to N2940 euros.

Better tell us another story.

callmeDDD:
In as much as APC did alot of wuruwuru across their party's primaries, the question I always ask these politicians is how popular are they among the party members and grassroots? Once they elect many of them, to even come home and interact about what they are doing in Abuja becomes a ghost. They cut many youths that helped them out and bring strangers and family members totally to work with them. So it's good for most of them to be dealt with. If you use your consistency allocations well and connect well with the grassroots, a lot of youths will stand for you and with you in difficult times.
That's the cases many fell into. He should go and sit down. They failed the grassroots. Politicians hardly accept defeat even if they are disconnected from their people.

yarimo:
Ameachi and hayatudeen are really bold politicians for not running away from participating in primary election with ATIKU

Afonjacoward:
Tinubu has lost the support of the North come 2027.
He is definitely losing this election I see no pathway for his victory

helinues:
Kenya went on protest last week because of price of fuel. It's a global things not only in Nigeria

Modified: Wondering why some of the opposition supporters are so empty like their principals that they can't engage with others logically or meaningfully.

Those 2k online bandits are just so irritating

MaziObinnaokija:
Pa ATIKU already win this ADC ticket. Pa AGBOTIKUYO saw the the handwriting on the wall and scale fence sharp sharp to NDC. Amaechi should forget this charade, nah ATIKU get ADC Ticket.
