Without that 'daft' speech as you call it, we would still be parabulating like Argentina infinitely searching for a solution.

With the economic turnaround now manifesting, that speech has turned out to be one of the most inspired speeches ever made by any Nigerian in the history of this country.

For clarification, speeches declaring Nigeria's independence, and speeches declaring and accepting the end of the horrible civil war are thousand times more important.

My point is, at an economic level, Mr Tinubu's speech declaring the end of subsidy will be talked and written about for decades to comes simply because of the monumental damage the fraudulent subsidy was doing to Nigeria, and how the evisceration of subsidy marked the beginning of a new era in the economic history of this country.

Those Obidients were expecting the president to call for a round table meeting with the oil cabals to agree on a possible date for the removal of fuel subsidy
The fallout from such would have been devastating, they think subsidy removal is child’s play. The only way to do it is to take everyone unawares because once you don’t, it will face heavy resistance and the resultant fuel scarcity will be unprecedented because every retail outlet will shut down in anticipation of higher prices

Neck suffocating, bad news for the enemies of Nigeria especially Obedient. If this news makes u sad. It shall be permanent

You no lie. I’m Obidient and really pained seeing this news. I doubt I’d be able to go to work today

DeLaRue:
I trust Mr Tinubu.

He won't be pushed around.

….but he should be careful. Obidients also rejected his appointment until it was revealed he once wrote a piece alleging Christian genocide in Nigeria. That was when they started supporting him

Otti really did well with this bridge. This kind of infrastructure can only be built when you vote the right person with no godfather to steal state allocation. Lagos has a lot to learn from Otti and Abia state, kudos governor Otti 👍

Obidients won’t like this at all. Their beloved country, Argentina, tops the list of debtors

Electronic transmission of manual votes? Does this OP know what he’s even talking about? There’s an ignorance pandemic in this country, largely due to Obidients

President Tinubu alongside his security chiefs meets with US (AFRICOM) delegation in Abuja today......

They have told him to quietly resign and move to Benin, for Obi to take over ~ Obïdïöts

RIP compatriot, the UK happened to you

Later, they will deny they were not the ones behind the lobby in the US to designate Nigeria as a CPC. I wan see how you go wash your hands off this, you don price, you must collect

The last time, he blamed innocent Excel spreadsheet for allocating billions for one hilux vehicle. His people will believe and defend this, but once it’s politicians from other regions they will become the loudest critics and complain about how corruption is our number one problem, the same corruption they turn a blind eye to once it involves their own

You people just want to kill Obidïöts, I know one who goes on one-week hunger strike anytime any governor joins APC. You can imagine how many days hunger strike he has had since last year

Tinubu really 8 we Ibos, he won’t even allow us do our business in peace.

Obïdïöt for a reason!

What can Obidients ever get right abeg. This is the same Wike they said Jagaban has dumped. They are the Jim Cramer of politics

I already advised them to gather all their audio billionaires to pool funds and outspend the FG, if they’re really serious

Juninho of course

So, did he resign?

GloriousGbola:
the power problem can be solved if we as nigerians are willing to bite the bullet and start paying actual cost of power. no one is going to invest in power when it is still being subsidized. that is the reality. nigeria can no longer afford to subsidise power

there is also the issue of corrupt legacy nepa staff all through the system who have the govt is paying for power mindset and who will continue to sabotage metering initiatives for their own gain

Don’t mind all those ignorant kids who propose simple solutions to complex problems. If it were that easy why has the problem persisted outlasting 15 different presidents and heads of state? The solution requires everyone to make sacrifices as you have said, but nobody is ready for that, they prefer to whin and complain while hoping for one messiah that would make power cheap and available miraculously

seanwilliam:
Obidients still dey exist?

I wonder too. I dey Abuja and nobody even knew any protest was going on

If only Obidense knew the meaning of “in real time” this conversation wouldn’t be up for debate, knowing the current state of the country’s internet penetration and accessibility

If Trump can think this low of a former American president just because of his colour, imagine what he thinks of the black Jews in Nigeria who think he gives a fvck about them

Orlandoo:
This man is dumber than Tinubu.

He’s even dumber than Obi of all people

casualobserver:
Truth be told, while it is exciting to see the new roads being constructed, I keep scratching my head at the thought process behind the design of the coastal road. Makes no sense to me. I anticipate a lot of accidents on Lagos-Cal due to poor hard shoulder design.

You’re right. The hard shoulder should have been designed to drift inwards from the motorway to avoid collision of oncoming with stationary vehicles on the hard shoulder

51. An Obidient is caught in Asia for drug-trafficking

Artiiclebeast:
I m finding it difficult to understand the road design, particularly the two blokos at the foot. I can't seem to understand where they both lead to.

For descending from top of the flyover to the road beneath and also for climbing the flyover from the road beneath, depending on where you are coming from

Tinubu wan spoil us with massive projects everywhere. This is unprecedented in the history of this country having this many big road projects going on simultaneously; one of the benefits of subsidy removal

That’s Obingo, the wailing breed

The master strategist got one over IPOB again. He used Obi as vehicle to get power, now using their lobbyists in BRGIE to foster stronger ties with the US
No single shit thrown at him has stuck, I doff my hat for you sir. EponObi, permit me to use this photo of Trump eating our agbado after throwing away the plate of akpu our brothers offered him

Nigeria happened to him, dazall
