Whether Nigeria had intervened or not, apartheid would have still left before 2000 as South Africa apartheid ally the soviet union collapsed. So Nigeria 'apartheid intervention' is as useless as the p in psychology. Plus you must be highly delusional if you think Nigeria had that much influence over apartheid south Africn government

Its not about the influence or not that Nigeria had over appatheid, but the act of love, support, oneness, selflessness, determination, brotherhood, camaraderie and sacrifices made

Maintenance culture is lacking among Nigerians and it starts with the govt

Its start with us at home.

This is not surprising. A 5 year old car bought brand new in Nigeria can not be compared to a 10year old Tokunboh. The tokunboh is cleaner and more road worthy. Talk less of comparing an aeroplane. A hundred year old aeroplane and car in America is even better than a 5 year old car and plane in Nigeria. Doubt it go and check how much classics cost.

Who will pay for damages & who will pay for medical bills? That looks like a taxi and i am very sure no be the owner dey drive am.

The name of the capital of that country should be a red flag to any sane person that wants to live long.
Says a broke wretched unattractive Nigerian girl.

Her eyes where the first thing that caught my attention. That lady is clearly not her self and probably will never be.

Thats one ugly piece of art. From the colors to the figure.... Lots of more beautiful ideas dey my poor mind. Maybe it was a gift.

Na to use pidgin english engage her na. You don see wia dem dey correct pidgin english?

money that all three brothers will spend, invest, squander and still have enough for charity is what one wants to covet alone?
politificians are not our problem, we Nigerians are our problem. E get who, how or where we no fit thief from?

They rarely have time for themselves talkless of you. With the shortage of medical personnel, they are always on call. But when you are lucky to catch one and it works, you are truly the luckiest man around.

Its all about estacodes and dollars not about medals and honor. A corrupt process cant birth honor.

Lexus Es fwd, and GS rwd,awd no balance. I drove my guys gs yesterday and I fired it to 120kph..oh bobs the car was feeling like it had flat tyres,was just bouncing doing left and right while in motion...omo I no tell am oh.

You cant get thesame experience from two different cars, a Lexus GS is rear wheel drive while an ES is front wheel. A Lexus GS comes with V6 & V8 while the ES is only V6.

If either of these cars felt floaty i doubt its the GS. Being high can also feel floaty, not that i am saying you where high... I no talk am o!

Lol!

Tinubu mean well for Nigeria and that was why he hijacked the election to become president by force.

Unfortunately, he does not have the quality of a leader.

He is arrogant and extremely proud, he listens to nobody and he probably thought he can run Nigeria like a cartel.

Kofoworola Burknor, ogbeni Rauf have all made this known.

How can you foolishly removed subsidy in one swoop and more ridiculous is the fact that there was no where in the speech that he read it.

Was it dementia that affected him cos he was against Jonathan removing subsidy in one swoop.

But as soon as he got sworn in, he did exactly what he advised Jonathan against in 2012


Now Read Tinubu's very own words to Jonathan in 2012.

11 January, 2012

Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) national leader and former governor of Lagos State, has accused the Jonathan presidency of betraying its social contract with the people by suddenly removing fuel subsidy.

He, however, provided a window out of the crisis:

if subsidy must be removed at all, it must never be at one fell swoop. Rather it must be on calibrated phrases, on which the promised gains are measured and confirmed before moving to the next phase of removal.

“Government must modify the sudden and complete removal of the subsidy. Either we restore the subsidy or use the funds for other social purposes.

,” Asiwaju Tinubu counselled in a special release he captioned, ‘Removal of oil subsidy – President Jonathan breaks social contract with the people’ and which he personally signed.

“If we are to use the funds for other programmes, these programmes shall be placed on parallel track with the subsidy. As more of these programmes are ready to go on line, then the subsidy can be lifted in phases” he continued. “In this way, the public is assured government will not lower its total expenditure on their behalf, thus maintaining the spirit central to the social contract.”*

But the former governor cautioned the federal government against economic policies that tend to balance the books at the detriment of the people’s welfare.

“As there is progressive politics, there is progressive economics. As there is elitist politics, there is elitist economics,” Asiwaju Tinubu explained. “It all depends on what and who in society government would rather favour.

The Jonathan tax,” he declared, “represents a new standard in elitism.”
But the ACN national leader cautioned the president against being captive to economic orthodoxy and its local purveyors, who always look at the Nigerian economy as nothing until when tied to the apron strings of the conservative orthodoxy.

“Because he is slave to wrong-headed economics,” Asiwaju Tinubu said of President Goodluck Jonathan, “the people will become enslaved to greater misery. This crisis will bear his name and will be his legacy. The people now pay a steep tax for voting him into office.

The removal of the subsidy is the ‘Jonathan tax’,” he insisted. “The situation shows that ideas count more than personalities.

People may occupy office but how that person performs depends on the ideas that occupy his mind
Insisting that the subsidy removal was ill-timed he said there must be some conditions precedent before such a step could be taken

“First government needs to clean up and throw away the salad of corruption in the NNPC [Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation]. Then, proceed to lay the foundation for a mass transit system in the railways and road network with long term bonds and,” he added, “fully develop the energy sector towards revitalising Nigeria’s economy and easing the burden any subsidy removal may have on the people.”

Iyaloja if you are reading this just know that your father has destroyed Nigeria with his oversabi attitude.

I'm sure mummy can not even correct him cos he believes he is all knowing.

Your father has destroyed Nigeria by doing exactly what he advised against

You are in Aso Rock enjoying and eating quality food and you have the temerity to advise people who are using water melon, cucumber to make stew.

Im trying not to use offensive words on you.

And for the records, I'm not igbo. Omo yoruba gidi ni mi.


The worst part of it all is that the same subsidy he hurriedly removed is now back and bigger cos the FG is still paying subsidy and that is why petrol price has not risen higher than it is presently.

This is the consequence of irrational decision making.

You forgot to add; floating of the Naira.
These are the two things that got us where we are today.

E-diot!

No manner of protest will change the wicked mind. Most of the organizers have visas & dual citizenship. When the protest gets out of hand they will join thesame politicians they are fighting in thesame airplane and japa to thesame countries while the poor & hungry will beer the after math of the carnage that may ensue.

Too many things can go wrong..... or right during the planned protest.

No gree for anybody

Protest from now till next year. It will change nothing cos the mind of the average Nigerian is just filled with greed, unpatrioticsm, money over everything, wickedness....

Watch as things like school fees, locally made clothes, goods & services in general go up in prices. To pay minimum salary from 15, 20, 30k to 70k will definitely reflect in the price of goods and services. The consumer is yet again at the receiving end. Nigeria that things are already on a steady increase, this 70k will look like 30k in no time.

"Africa is a cemetery for Africans. When an African becomes rich his bank accounts are in Switzerland, he travels to France for medical treatment, he invests in Germany, he buys from Dubai, he consumes Chinese, he prays in Rome or Mecca, his children study in Europe, he travels to Canada, USA, and Europe for tourism. If he dies he will be buried in his native country. Africa is just a cemetery for Africans, how could a cemetery be developed?"

Another ignorant post. "Spray money like Nigerians" really??

Y'all need to travel. Visit strip clubs and see how dollars are sprayed on strippers. Thats just one of it.

Big deal! Are Black people videoed, captioned and posted on social media when they speak Oyinbo mans language? Na so one Nigga so a white guy eating corn and was flabagasted, shocked beyond measure not knowing that deez whites been eating corn boiled/roasted long b4 the white man discovered Africa!

We still have a looong way to go bruv.

For letting every riffraff sleep with his daughters in the name of relationship, Femi Otedola must be the world's most generous billionaire.

When I become a billionaire, broke men won't even be crossing paths with my daughters. My daughters will be betrothed to their husbands at birth to the sons of my wealthy business partners. My sons are free to do or marry whoever they like.

If you don't like this, go suck a lemon!

Hope you know Mr Eazi is a self made millionaire.

Omo what did i just read. Was it not yesterday a fellow cop (RIP) was killed infront of an airport by thugs?

Facts my ass.
Reality on ground is that things are on gradual increase, people are hungry and the purchasing power of majority of Nigerians has decreased drastically.

If what you are experiencing is not fact enough then go to the markets, visit your friends and see how lunch or dinner is served.

Growing the SME is good, but if the buying power of workers is where they are then how will these small businesses thrive?

Eating beans/Akara and bread places you amongst the elites now. What a life, what a country!

It’s well…




For how long is he being tried for the terrorism?

He’s being tried for terrorism, while BH radicalists and bandits are being rehabilitated and negotiated with? 🤔

Where’s your conscience?😥

Mind you, I’m not pro-biafra, but this comment of yours just reeks of hatred and wickedness!

If he’s being justly tried for “terrorism”, what are we doing with BH and bandits? 😏

Well said. Very well said.

Nothing cannot be stolen in this country. From;
1. Your destiny
2. Your manhood
3. You, your family even your entire village
4. billions of $
5. Satellite
6. Land
7. Building rods
8. Transformer

Things that can be difficult, unimaginable to be stolen in other countries get stolen here. And the thief is mostly never caught.

We too dey thief for this country, Haba.

Same thing as the North benefitting from tax on alcoholic beverages but their states practice sharia and destroy beer bottles when sited.

The same rule will be applied to the Samoa Agreement and any LGBTQ.

The Nigerian way is not like any other way.

50 Toyota Hilux! Why not 50 Innoson or NORD trucks? We should start promote whats ours vigorously. This is how the dollar will come down. Oil will not do it all for us.

Governments of other countries promote theirs, here government is waiting for the masses to do it. If Government start using what is made in Nigeria it will convince the masses to also patronize them not the other way round.

This guy na idiot. See as he wants to destroy the iconic Nissan 350Z!
