Rufai will call Trump names that he can never use on Tinubu. When he talks foreign policy,he goes south. Choiceone1:You don't invite guests to interrogate them, otherwise they will never honor your invitation. You can use journalism skills to ask them questions that will get the same response. One day, the host of BBC Hard Talk asked Obasanjo a question, our President was annoyed and asked him if he could ask Tony Blair that. The job is a dirty job but if your guests see you as someone who is interrogating them,they won't answer you unless you are police that has the power. |
I just saw the interview. Here are the things to note: 1. It comes with age. Those who like Rufai's style are typically young people who want their voices heard. They want gragra and see Rufai as someone who speaks truth to power. They think he is bold. True, Rufai will call you out and I like some of what he does but it can be irritating and that's not what a professional does. Those who don't like him think he is a small boy but he's been on air for a long time and he is good but he has his emotions hovering what he does. I follow him on VOP too so I know he is a brilliant guy but when you bring a guest to your show, there are 2 things you don't do. Don't stop them from responding. We want to hear from them, not you. The second is to not to ask long questions that are opinions. Once you give your opinions, you are already influencing their response. When I saw the interview, I was somehow disappointed because the people who think Bwala was roasted are behaving like kids. In the scheme of things, Bwala cannot make any significant changes in Tinubu's government. He's a spokesman. This is the same way people wanted so much from Abati who was SA Media and not a cabinet member who can order his boss to do things. Nigerians are always looking for who will die for them in the battle they should fight for themselves. It's not Rufai's place to fight your battle. As a journalist,I was annoyed he did not take advantage of educating Nigerians on what this current administration is doing so that Bwala can make a fool of himself. You don't need to embarrass him on air because he changed ship,what you should do is to ask him questions that will make him look foolish when he is answering. You have not won anything because politicians have no shame. Allow them to fool themselves. Play the clip of before and after and watch how they sweat. I think Rufai should let his guests talk and stop lecturing us. If you want to ask a question, go straight to it. Don't start lecturing us for 2 mins before asking a question. Maybe bachelorhood is why he's like this but he can do better and stop trying to win every fight. Just let your guests fool themselves with tactical questions. It's because of your style they set trap for you on that BRT lane and you too see that no one is infallible. None of us is perfect, keep speaking truth to power but be tactical in how you do your job Rufai and you'll stand out. Many have come before you and many will be after you but be careful of those people who want you to sacrifice your life for them and hiding behind buttons online. Do your job well.

SmartyPants:I don't understand why you are shifting the goal posts and I think maybe you're trying to grandstand. I'm not here to prove anything but when someone says 'the law considers trivial and a certain quantity that is considered major crime', is that law legal or another kind of law? You seem to be contradicting yourself. I have quoted Nigerian law to you but you are talking about trivial and what not. You can't say the law considers a quantity trivial or major when the law itself outrightly bans any possession of it in the first place. If you take this across the border, whether it's 1mg or 5kg, you have committed a crime. They don't care about the amount,that's just for measurement. Hope you get it now? ![]() |

This ATM fee was first introduced when Emefiele came on. Do you remember the 65 Naira ATM fee? It was supposed to be for the 4th transaction in a month and we protested it. Then they later introduced 65 naira for inter ATM? How far have we come APC did Nigeria dirty https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjB4PfAE9qA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FL4-4EqZzj4 |
SmartyPants:The possession of cannabis is illegal and punishable by a minimum sentence of 12 years in Nigeria. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YccWsskXr7s?feature=shared

Adeshina is a good candidate but look at the comments above, Nigeria is so divided across tribe and religion that reason is second place. I love his vision for Nigeria and Africa but character is everything. Nigerians are not ready for good governance. They saw Osinbajo, they took him away. They saw Obi, they chased him away. Both Atiku and Tinubu of APC and PDP and all of them join together are interested in personal interests aka politics above nationhood. Forget it. |
From Court off light to NEPA take light, which should we believe ![]() |
ChizzyBuna:I don't agree with this. Jide Kosoko warned his daughter online Pete Edochie warned his son online Okupe gave up too online Parenting is never easy. |
Is this you? When you guys were playing with our lives, fighting subsidy removal even when you knew the truth better than the masses, it was entertainment ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eukKEOSi-8?feature=shared https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFqadtGRQgw Os is it when you opposed LG autonomy,that was entertainment ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywroAlZTPjY Oga please go back to your classroom ans practise what you preach or teach.

Tendd:It's no litmus test. Read my last post here, it's politics. What they tell the people in the North is different from what they tell people in the South. However, Obi's emergence caused all of these. What they are not factoring is that young people today don't really care about your religion, they want to see you prove who you are. This divide and rule politics is old school already but our politicians can't see it. I said it that by 2026, something they never expected will come around and sway the people. It does not even have to be Obi, in fact, it may not be Obi at all but the thing that comes out will be a joker card and the response they thought they had with religious divide will fall like a pack of cards. |

Trump is going to cause a lot of countries to renegotiate the existing order. It looks disruptive what he is doing but it's time to adjust the world order. |
The world is full of options. Make the best of what life gives you WHEREVER YOU ARE. Life is very simple, it's the people of the world that make it difficult. |
Karlovich:I edited my comment. You can live with theory, you can argue for reality. Elon's mom is SA/American and Canadian. Is it Trump that when it wasn't convenient for them, CNN remembered his German roots? I agree with you. You're right https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJ28FBabzP0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzbdgPvH2Xs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ly5hNFgJvUQ |
Karlovich:Okay, thank you for letting me know you guys are just trolling. You just want to argue to win. You win sir! I lose. Elon Musk is American. ✌ |
gambojimeta:You are very observant. I think if they featured, they will win a lot of awards because they are acoustic. I also think religion is why they keep it as it is. They would not want to be seen as looking for worldly things but anyone who studies music will know that their songs are ORIGINAL. And that's the true definition of music, natural sounds! |
SmartyPants:I don't know if people are trolling or just being lazy because in this internet age, some things are easy to find. Seal's name is literally Henry Olusegun Olumide Adeola Samuel. Seal went back to his homeland here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O77qhCg6Nik When you get to a stage in life, you will always go back to your roots. This is the problem African Americans face when some of them can't trace their roots and it's traumatic. Karlovich:Sade Adu has never denied her Nigerian origin and I am not someone who likes to claim people just because they are Nigerians but you can't make this up. This is a video of Sade Adu talking about her being from Nigeria and pronouncing her Yoruba name https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HuD4tpI2rDo She has never hidden her Nigerianess/Yorubaness https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASOgwsowlFk In this interview, Sade is saying she never knew what the grammy was until she saw a headline that said she was the first Nigerian to win a Grammy. If you are too lazy, skip to 7:53 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXhUw7NffqM Sade is a very private person, she lived in Jamaica for some time. I learned she has a duel with Rema that is loading. |
El Rufai has found a convenient way to be in the news. Now you're talking about him. In Nigerian politics, find a way to be in the news and whether you are good or bad, people will think about you. That's the crack code Omokri and VDM found. Davido is also good at it but he's an entertainer, that's their trade. |
richmond500:Please read what the picture says again becasue this is not what viral means. Thank you. |
richmond500:I attached a picture there on the meaning if viral. Tell me how this post is viral. |
The Africa Intelligence portal reported that it recently approached Abuja to consider purchasing Mi-24 helicopters, which date back to the USSR era.This is what I suspect is the real reason but they had to give damage and that other reason as an excuse. If those funding USA tell them not to buy anything from Russian Federation, Ukraine will not buy it even if it is currently used by Nigeria. It's like expecting Hamas to trust any Israeli device and vice versa. |
Nnamdipapa:Ageism is a problem in Nigeria and you are spot on. What's interesting is that there is a popular character here that I will never argue with and this person is not a kid. People like them have come and gone over the years. We all know who I am talking about. Has nothing to do with age. The owner has not presented himself in the best manner on some issues, has nothing to do with age. I beg to differ OP. Everyone is wise until they open their mouths, let's know what is in people's mind so we don't give them automatic promotion they don't deserve. Elders in their 90s are doing something wrong but because of age and respect, we have to keep quiet and look the other way ![]() |
sapele914:It's how you guys are narrow minded that beats me. Mr Buhari did not debate too. Obi can die tomorrow or he can decide not to contest. This is not about Obi but you can't give what you don't have so thank you for trying your best |
sapele914:You are funny. Nigerian politicians have found a way to use what divide us as election topics. That is why Tinubu could get away with not doing a debate. It's not about law or constitution, it's about the issues Nigerians tell themselves and that's what informs their votes. |
I think this issue will cost the President the next election. We already have tribalism and Muslim Muslim ticket. The way they keep dividing us, they'll make it a religious election and the rhetorics are not making it any better. This is why people cannot see it as a non partisan issue because the ingredients in the kitchen and the food that has been cooked in the past will not make it a good food. |
GeneralPula:He is not wise, he is foolish. I think his mom's death has made him change that no one can call him to order. We can act in our fantasies and do all the bad things we want to do but in PRIVATE. And that's not hypocrisy, it's understanding that there is something called decency and public indecency. We can all sleep naked but that does not mean all of us will start going out naked tomorrow morning. This guy has a female daughter and she looks up to him. He is a public figure and he is showing a bad example to his daughter and his mom. He disrespected the women in his life but what do I know, these people become soulless. It's not enough his ex wife has a sex tape out there, his daughter will handle this too. "Your dad has low taste in women". If his mom was alive, will he be proud to have this news and picture shown to her? Hello mama |
Public indecency and they will affect the T.V. networks broadcasting a live program. |
Trump declared on his Truth Social platform that he would halt all future funding to South Africa pending an investigation, claiming the nation was confiscating land and treating people unfairly.The story of Zimbabwe all again. Trump/Elon must be told off when necessary. Elon is the one that may suffer in the long run, his investments will suffer when countries stop using his products 'just because' |
FP material because it's gossip media and the mods are complicit. Either they own the OP's YouTube page or in connection with OP. In a viral post, she lamented how "small boys" keep making advances at her despite her preference for older and more mature partners. She questioned whether it was her appearance or something else attracting younger men to her.I challenge OP to prove to me how/when/where this post became viral ![]()
