PDP should have thought of this when it tried everything possible to ensure that Mr Yari, a candidate that APC didn't want, became Senate President.

I assume APC wants to pay them back exactly the same way by supporting a PDP candidate that PDP doesn't want.


But parties are not behaving with dignity. but I blame PDP for starting the dishonourable behaviour.

PoliticsRe: Subsidy Removal: Poor Nigerians Will Hit 101million Without Palliatives, W’ban by ogmask: 8:40am On Jun 28, 2023
What I don't understand is the role of these financial bodies dictating to Nigeria and other 3rd world countries how to live their lives. Since the time of OBJ, they told us that the subsidy should go. Now that tinubu has removed it they are crying palliative. For me, I agree that there should be palliatives asap but these guys are up to no good. They borrow us money at cutthroat interest rates thereby keeping us down perpetually. Their suggestion to me is if no good. If they wanted Africans to live better they should have started by making the environment safe. Stop the wars with the same urgency they removed Saddam Hussein and Gadhafi. Make them rest jare. Allow us to access our God-given mineral resources and stop exploitation. Support our drive against money laundering. Refuse or reject the proceeds of corruption. But they won't do any of these because that is how they feed their over bloated stomach too.

Yeah, very possible that someone like Chinda clinches the minority position in the lower house.

datola:
How can APC with the majority still get the position of Minority Leaderhuh

That wanting to be both the head and tail
As it stands now, wike is one leg in APC, and one leg in the PDP. So, if his boy (stooge), hon Chinda, becomes the minority leader of the House of reps and another APC sympathiser senator clinches it in the Senate, it is as good as a one-party (apc) legislative leadership.

So many people just wish Tinubu failure not knowing that wishing him failure, doesn't mean he will fail.
Let's see what happens in weeks to come as we survive this new Government policies.
But one lesson learnt is that, Nigeria was a highly subsidized society now all subsidy is going we got to bear the heat.
The president or his spokespersons should be on the mic 247. Things go out of hand when you don't carry the people along in your policy direction. This was what Buhari did which turned out to be a monumental failure. Things ain't looking good ATM tho.

1)Russia is a democratic state make laugh so hard that it can wake up the dead and deaf will hear. Russia is a one state ( Quasi socialist- quasi capitalist). In other words Mega Putin party and negligible opposite.

2) Leaders in Saudi Kuwait etc are ruling via Monarchical Govt and dictatorship combine with suppression either through religious philosophy or violent force . If you have access to their people,they will tell you that if opportunity present itself they will prefer to be rule under democracy. ( Remember, democracy does not bring economic happiness on the long run; u may have freedom but not able to achieve your full economic potential). As with Libya example, the people have everything on a platter but still feel empty due to lack of freedom. ( This still pose the irony of man : Rich but said; poor but happy). No Man loves to live under dictatorship if options of freedom are presented and that captured the mood in Russia when a potential coup is about to take place.

3) Using Tinubu, Saraki are important political juggernaut in our environment to portray my message.
They have stayed too long, overchopped too much in power and acquired too much political baggages as well
I get what you mean. On the lighter side, I think Saraki is a baby politician compared to tinubu who has been around like a Methuselah. Saraki break into the Nigerian political space in 2003 or so.
Back to the topic, Whatever Putin is doing in Russia is not so different from what is happening in the USA in my opinion. Gagging and hounding Trump to pave the way for Biden to continue in the face of mountain of corruption allegations are all signs of dictatorship. It may be different in scale and application but the expected result is the same.
I'd kike to add that democracy doesn't guarantee "freedom" as you said. Many so called democracies are worse than what existed in Libya and Iraq.
Good morning brother.

Lesson of Life. Never stay too long in power be it political or Mornachical power, U are bound to lose goodwill, good judgement and political capital. All in all, the law of diminishing returns will set in, without equivocation, people will prefer anything less or primitive creatures to lead them than you.

Ask Saraki ( Omo baba oloye ni Ilorin)

Ask Tinubu ( Omo iyaloja of Lagos)

Saraki, Tinubu and Putin all have one thing in common, enjoying political leadership and optics since 1999 (24yrs at the top). Saraki may be less in years anyway.
What will you say about the leaders of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Oman, the traditional rulers who practically die in office and religious leaders/ general overseers? Compare the state of Libya and Iraq with leaders like Gadaffi and Saddam to the so called democracy they practice today.
Limiting your leadership lesson to tinubu and Saraki in comparison to Putin is flawed. For your info, Russia is a democratic state.

Praise be to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ

There is none like him
Are you aware that Ukraine is in the war for profit and nothing else? Do you know that Zelensky, the president of Ukraine hates Christians and Christian activities? Do you also know that the West is pushing and sustaining this war because of their love for blood money?
Nothing in the Ukraine war points to the hand of God in it. The war is a making of the USA and its allies, period.
Come to think of it, when people say Ukraine will win the war I ask them on whose soil is the war being fought right now. Whose infrastructure is being destroyed right now? Who has lost innocent women, children and the elderly the most? Even if Russia pull out of the war today they do so as the winners because not even a building in Russia is affected by the war. What is happening now is the warmongers (contractors who benefit from the effect of war) are the ones nudging the eggheaded Zelensky on. It will take Ukraine decades to rebuild what they have lost thru self-sabotage and Russian bombings.

Russia cannot win the War
Because Ukraine is the Spiritual father of Russia

It was Ukrainians who First Christianized,and Civilized Russia
It was Ukraine that gave birth to Russia
Just as the UK gave birth to Nigeria

God has got Ukraines back
Ukraine sowed the seed of the Christian Gospel in Russia and God will always honour it

Russia cannot defeat Ukraine even if Ukraine refuses to fight

You don't bite the same finger that fed you when you were an unknown nobody

Russia cannot defeat its own father
That is the reason things are working against Russia

That is why Putin is still struggling to fight what he though would be a one week War

Ukrainian Christianity gave birth to Russia and Russian Civilization

No Nation on Earth has successfully defeated any People that gave it the Gospel and Christianity

We said this from the very first week of the War

My personal Opinion!

Former governors like matawalle of Zamfara, Ganduje of Kano, Bagudu of Kebbi, Fayose of Ekiti and that of Jigawa state have little to nothing that they can contribute aside with the sole aim of enriching themselves. I don’t mind ex governors like Fayemi, Dave umahi, elrufai (even though I thoroughly hate this elrufai guy because of his utterances and extremism). There’s abit of know how about these particular ex govs that asiwaju could use. As for Wike, even though he did well as a governor, he seems to lack maturity in some certain waYs.

Above all, BAT knows better that as to who he is appointing and I very well trust in his ability when it comes to assembling great minds. Kudos to BAT so far, Nigeria shall be great again.

From an Atiku supporter.
No BS, your analyses of the situation is ok except that wike didn't do well as a gov. Erecting bridges indiscriminately does not equate to "doing well". Wike was a loudmouth media propagandist who made commissioning mediocre projects a function of govt. He elevated touts and criminals in police uniforms to an all-high. He deliberately made sure the bridges have blind spots where his govt house touts wreck havoc on unsuspecting motorists. Police brutality became breakfast for residents. Opposition was lunch for wike and his goons. Education and healthcare took the back seat because building bridges was easier to do than providing a conducive atmosphere for education and primary healthcare. You have to understand that the money spent on those bridges is not known to anyone to this day. Let's just leave it at that for now.

From the look of things, the North is weak at the moment. The northern leaders and elders have seriously deviated from their pursuit of one goal to pursue a personal vendetta against perceived enemies and pull themselves down. Kano, niger and Zamfara states come round. The north is at it's weakest state in its history. Banditry, religious bigotry, terrorism, selfish political leaders, and thieving NGOs to mention and few have brought the North to its knees. The north is too divided to fight as they used to do.

This is exactly one of obasanjo’s first move when he came to power . Tinubu is ticking along nicely. He is front loading all the shocks and the pain will be unbearable at first . But handled properly ,Nigerians will reap all the benefits.
The funny thing is that Nigerian were already paying a higher price for over 10 years .
My advice for Tinubu’s communications team is that they are not doing their job properly.Nigeria is not Lagos where you have a large professional class who understand the vagaries of economics. Even Lagos is full of dimwits.
There is a need to communicate policies, the reason for , the effects and its potential benefits directly to the populace.Go to the hinterland and market squares . Communicate directly with the people .
Get their buy ins . Look for quick easy wins . FVCK palliatives . Use that money and import 50000 cheap tractors from china and distribute them to farmers cooperatives.
Get enough railway rolling stocks on the train lines ASAP and build agriculture transportation and distribution hubs around the lines .
This can be achieved within 12 months . Tell those useless flyover, event center and street light building governors to invest state funds in areas of competitive advantage. For most , it is agriculture.
Absolutely ignore all those so called Harvard agricultural experts who have never stepped on a farm for one day in their lives with their yeye “cooking pot” and “telephone for farmers”programs of the past . Face the reality on the ground and not some half baked classroom theories.

You have a point here but I think what he did was to remove it and call for dialogue afterwards.

Rufai act like he is not aware that the subsidy was expunged from our laws by the Senate and Buhari administration, and no provision was made for subsidy in June.
Yeah, Rufai should know better. I didn't vote for tinubu but I can't blame him on this. Come to think of it, the top three contenders said they will remove the subsidy, which in essence means that they will not continue after June 30th. I can't fault the president on this abeg.
