And what happened to the economy? Subsidy was a cancer on the economy.
An economy that was battered by the likes of those in power and those forming coalition.
It is at this technological age EFCC is finding out that these crooks are now hiding stolen funds by using Crypto
Listen to these politicians at your own peril. It's all baldadash. They have nothing to offer.

So is economy in anyway better now than his era?

nairalanda1:
The same buhari and tinubu marched against subsidy removal in 2012....

Also, keeping the subsidy left us with a debt that was eating 90% of our government revenue by August 2022.

Yes, it was a good decision...not.

If it's a good decision,then why did they march to the street against it in 2012 as you said?
This is what we called "hypocrisy".

grandstar:
We are dying from the excessive borrowing he had to make for us to "enjoy" the fuel subsidy.

The government was even borrowing money through ways and means from the government. This is basically asking the central bank to print you money to lend to it.

When Tinubu assumed office, 97% of government revenue was going towards servicing debt. With the fuel subsidy removal and the floating of the Naira, it's down to 68%.

Buhari's economic illiteracy was legendary. He wanted to be popular.

So the present government is not borrowing, right?
Then how does their own borrowing benefits the poor masses like Buhari's own?
You people will just open mouth waaah to talk trash!

When Trump goes golfing every weekend, I'm sure he's doing it for the nation.

But at least his whereabout will be known.
The president is taking time out in so so golf course..ooo in so so place..oo.
That will suffice.

jchioma:
Is it possible that the Nigerian President’s aircraft is passing through a zone where time is standing still? @grok

Chai, Nigerians can be so funny.
See question wey that man ask?
See laff wey we laff for here as we dey read vde news.

Christlike01:
As much as I would like to agree with your line of reasoning, I find it almost impossible to believe that the Captain and First Officer of the ill-fated Indian flight simply forgot to switch on the fuel pump. This is because there is a mandatory pre-flight procedure that must be performed before takeoff—commonly referred to as the pre-flight checklist or before-start checklist.

Pilots rely on these standardized checklists to ensure that all necessary procedures are completed and that systems are properly configured before flight, as well as during all other critical phases such as takeoff, cruise, descent, and landing. While the specific checklist items may vary slightly depending on the aircraft type, the overall process is an essential and rigorously followed safety protocol.

Given this, I strongly believe that the flight captain would have reviewed and confirmed all necessary systems with the First Officer before departure. A typical exchange in the cockpit might go as follows:

Captain: Battery switches?
First Officer: ON

Captain: Fuel pumps?
First Officer: ON

Captain: APU?
First Officer: ON and available

Based on this standard operating procedure, it seems highly unlikely that they would have forgotten to switch on the fuel supply system.

Then in that case too,it wouldn't have been possible for one of the pilots to pull out the switch board and switch it off without the 2nd pilot seeing it or knowing about it.
They are in same cockpit and doing the same checks just as you have said.
So how come one of the pilots is asking the other one why he switched off the fuel supply?
Was he not in the same cockpit with him before and during the takeoff?

OAKSFIVEFARMS:
See how this guy use him tiger generator solve worldwide mystery from Isalu in Ogun State.

O boi,dis ur comment and the other guy own I quoted previously don make me laff roll for ground.
But engine nah engine nah?
Weda nah tiger generator engine or aircraft Boeing engine,all of dem nid fuel supply to function.
So leave the guy alone with him tiger generator abeg.
Him try,him analogy no dey too far from the reality in dis case

cucumbar:
Oga, no be generator dem Dey try to start here nauuu.

But engine nah engine nah or abi no be so?
So de guy dey try use de engine wey him sabi (generator) compare with the plane own nah.
Them dey talk of fuel supply to engine so him no dey totally wrong in him analogy.
But your reply funny me aswear!
I laff like say I win lottery

davodyguy:
Good it's your opinion, but you're wrong here.

The switch is strong and requires some strong touch, that must come from pilots or first officer. This has nothing to do with maintenance

Not that I am agreeing with the person you quoted,but do you know that the maintenance crew do have access to the cockpit and they also start the engines too for maintenance purposes?
So why do you rule out the possibility of them accessing the fuel switch?
Anything is possible,but let's wait until the investigation is concluded.

Zincfingers:
What kind of reportage is this
Almost all government workers have been paid their June salary . However, I’m aware some folks using Zenith bank haven’t been paid due to technical issues .
I work with the FG and I got paid since June

So,is that not what the reporter is saying?
The report clearly stated that it's in SOME MINISTRIES expecially those using Zenith Bank for their salary account.
And you are saying the same thing and still blame the OP.
What's the difference between what he said and what you are saying?

mideactive:
that was the time when my father didn't have any choice, as discipline as he was then. We go to sawmill before we could cook. How on earth will anyone promote Abacha? It's not funny anymore. Abacha!! How That man had too much political death to his name, with zero solution to the Nigerians problem. Criticise the government is okay, never bring in a such a character like Abacha.

Bad as you said he was in terms of human rights abuse,he was the best in securing the nation against any external aggression and internal insurrection.
Who born terrorists to walk majestically into a school and pack 300 students and matched out as if they students were doing match pass in the stadium for 27th May day celebration?
You matched them out unchallenged into a territory you carved out of Nigeria and ruled and still demand for ransom as we are witnessing under democratic rules?
And most importantly,there was no part of Nigeria territory that was allowed to be ceded to another country under his watch as compared to what the democratic rulers did in ceding the oil rich Bakasi Peninsula to France in the name of cameroun.
Remember,that was people ancestral land and today,as I speak to you,those people are now strangers in their father's land in another man's country undergoing the kind of torture and human rights abuse that even you wouldn't wished to be visited upon your worst enemies.
A territory that Abacha was fighting for so fiercely and has already succeeded in reclaiming and securing it for the citizens and businesses was booming to boost marine and blue economy to Nigeria state.
Ask OBJ and Atiku why it was given out to cameroun on a plater of gold.
So,in any forum that I am,be it online or real time,I won't fold my hands to see him being demonize in all ramifications without me defending him in at least one or two areas that he was good at.
If you say human rights abuse,I will agree with you but if you say he was totally bad in all aspects of governance,I will not agree with you.

Positivist:
Labaran Maku was never a deputy governor. He contested and lost various contests to become governor.

So who was the Deputy Governor of Nassarawa state between 2003 and 2007?
Pls, enlighten us.

O boy,see notion!
........[/color] The Nigeria Police has a policy requirements for rape, torturing, maiming, murder of Nigerians which is in violation of Rome Statute of crime against humanity.

The above lines is a great indictment which our government should do something about to redeem it's image in int'l community.

But meanwhile,I don't like double standard in my life.
If it was some of our corrupt politicians that stole our treasury dry and run to Canada to build mansions there and stack the remaining ones in their banks, will the judge had ruled the same?
What label do they also have for the corrupt politicians and their children who are schooling there?

Funpeter:
I know this man very well oooo we worked together briefly

Okay,so you too, don't run to Canada for any asylum or whatsoever reasons..oo.
They have already written a label and keep for you people there.
As soon as you enter,gbam they will stamp you your own label as a Nigeria police officer that you are or you were.

muyico:
Can this story be true or cock and duck story?? Why granted him visa in first place self?? I no understand??

Who granted him visa?
Didn't you read that he entered Canada illegally through land boarder in 2017?

Why selling a very good and talented young attacking winger like Madueke?
For what reason exactly?
How many wingers do we even have self apart from Neto and the new Brazilian boy from Palmeires that is joining us?
Joao Felix was sold out and Jordon Sancho won't be retained.
So why can't they allow Noni to stay?
If the want players to sell, don't they see Christopher Nkunku, Badiashile,etc to sell?

The cabal in the oil sector,the FG and "others" are the ones that doesn't want the refineries to work.
Why are the ones all the people I mentioned above built in abroad working?
It is a grand evil design by those involved to continue to milk Nigeria economy dry and perpetually subject the country to abject poverty.
...............

Meanwhile,where are those emergency lovers of Nigeria who claimed to be more Nigerians than others that were abusing people here few months ago for telling them the truth that the refineries were not working as claimed by the FG?
Can they come and abuse Dangote now?

Owombakara:
This is a very valid point. It is the same Rabbiu Kwankwaso, also former governor of Kano state.
These men have been in the corridors of power for so long. It's high time they are retired. They don't have any new ideas to offer. Most of them are going into office because aside from government they don't know how to run any franchise its always about looting or surviving on government funds. If the trend is not checked, then there's absolutely nothing for the younger generations.

Unfortunately, time doesn't wait for anyone. The younger generation has a decision to make. Either remain docile, do not partake in politics and let these same old men run the country as a private property or they wake up and join politics and insist that votes will actually count for something and make the true change that this country desperately needs. We need new faces, new ideas and not the same recycled people from donkey years back.

My brother,de thing tire me..ooo.
It's high time the youths wake up from their slumber

So why did they arrest him?
Didn't you read that he went back to the hotel with "thugs" to attack that his customer and demanded for the refund of the 15k?
Unfortunately for him,the person he attacked died.
So who do you think the police will hold response for her death?
Or you think the police will say she died of the ill health she was complaining of before her death?
Dey play!
The guy don enter one chance for this case wey you see so.
