I just have this feeling that most Nigerians are wicked and want others to suffer

They always rejoice when bad things happen, like police brutality for instance and they will be blaming the victims.

They vote bad leaders in just so ensure that they and their neighbors will continue to suffer.

Very demonic citizens men, I tell you.

So Soludo is now a bad leader?

Foolishbuhari:
You forget to mention that he said, power, education and HDI are the drivers of economy? Did Egypt begin building these without fixing power?

Fix power, pull people out of poverty and they won't destroy the infrastructure when you build them.

And how is power not infrastructure? The dams and power stations are what?

If you had all the crowd that LP has pulled in all the States so far, it's not up to half of this crowd

The question you should ask yourself is did Lagos got worse under Tinubu or better?

I pity the next President.

NigeriaIsDoomed:
Bro Nigeria is a resource rich country that is cursed with lunatics who are poor upstairs.
Nigeria is fuckin rich and every state has something untapped to export.
Your cursed rulers have been deceiving you and me with that line.
China is more than one billion in population and likewise India, so we don't have any reason for not fixing our basic amenities like light, water, roads, hospital etc.
I gave you an example of how badly our power sector has been managed by our cursed rulers since 1960. Bro is it because of our population that we cannot power our economic hubs, even if it is only Anambra, Lagos, Kano, Kaduna and Ruvers state? What are we saying? This is commonsense!
Infact! Africa is the richest continent on earth but will always remain retrogressive, dark and subservient to other race because it's experiencing a generational cursed.
The land of milk and honey that the greatest book referred to is Africa, the craddle of civilization's Africa, but you are cursed, that is why the Chinese will come to your country, go into your forests, cut some plants and take them back to his country to prepare drugs for you and me to buy.
Ghana has cocoa but earns little from exporting the raw cocoa while spending much to import chocolates from Swiss.
Our rulers siphone our money and take them to the white man land at the expense of their impoverished country.
The black race was cursed, we have to accept this bitter and humble truth.

There are things you'll never know until you get there.

ibedu29:
is BAT the best in south west?

During his time, Yes!!

Maxymilliano:
Reno is just a troublemaker, why bring Obi into the picture ?

Soludo is the governor of Anambra and not Obi. If the demolished structure contravenes the State building code, it's appropriate it's demolished.

And for the alleged assault on the god of man, he probably overreach himself by trying to stop the course of justice and met with brutality from the no-nonsense men of the taskforce

This is what Reno is saying.. Was there any Church in Kaduna or Abuja that El Rufai destroyed that didn't contravened State building codes? But wasn't he criticized?

IgbalodeRaymond:
peter obi is the best for nigeria ooo

Peter Obi isn't even the best in the SE let alone Nigeria.

NigeriaIsDoomed:
Bros how about UAE?
We love deluding ourselves in this country.
Lagos is almost 99 percent slummy and Abuja is still a thick forest outside Abuja Municipal Area Council while you are here making up excuses for our stagnation.
Do you know how rich Nigeria is but has remained retrogressive due to the mentally retarded animals helming the affairs of this country since 1960?
How old is Nigeria, yet she's still grappling with epileptic power supply inspite of the billions of dollar that has been channeled into the sector.
Abeg rest Oga! We have been cursed with evil things parading as leaders.

Tell us how old UAE is? Tell us UAE population and how much crude oil they produce daily...

I've said it before and will keep saying it. Nigeria is a poor country.

DaddyFreeze2020:
No wonder the Presidential candidate of Labour Party went to see things in Egypt for himself in other to replicate such in Nigeria.
I believe he wishes to see Nigeria perform better than Egypt economically and in infrastructural development.

Infrastructures doesn't drive an economy so he said.

Egypt has been in existence since the bible times and yet in 2022, they still have slums. Nigeria started in 1960 (if you like, 1914) and we are progressing little by little.

Cut us some slack joor. We will surely get there

I dare any Igbo man to change his name to Musa or Bolaji go to Imo or Enugu to buy land and see if they'll sell it to him.

Ekiti, the State of academicians.

Omor. So this is the man that they are comparing to Tinubu..

This post was since 2008, the only achievement his supporters could give was construction of pits toilet that are ventilated.

OBIdients, behold your god.

In 20 years time, if this girl wants to become Governor or President, Nigerians will ask for her WAEC certificate.

End subsidy to save Nigeria

Joey4321:
What do you think his true intentions are?

To be President.

He's building his ambition on lies.

This man just dey talk wetin people wan here. The attribute of a scammer

franchasofficia:
Did Tinubu also made mistake on their meal plan of agbado for breakfast, Garri for lunch and Cassava for dinner?

And did PO made a mistake when he said his 20 milla alcohol investment is now worth 100 milla?

IgOga:
For a nation that has crude oil in abundance.....build more refineries, invite investment in refineries, encourage state governments especially oil producing states to build their own refineries and the issue of subsidy will die a natural death.

Build refineries with which money? Go on your internet and check how much it takes to build a 200k bpd refinery.. How many State have the money to build a refinery?

And which investor will invest in a refinery where the Government fixes fuel price?

Brendaniel:
You guys just come out with hatred to discredit someone without listening to what someone is saying, he said he will not remove subsidy without making an alternative for subsidy removal.

Don't destroy an old bridge till a new one is complete for use....

If the old bridge is gulping too much money, where will the money for the new bridge come from?

I support subsidy removal. No buts. No ifs. Just remove the damn thing

Jennifer663:
No one is above mistake.
Stop deceiving and molesting yourself in the front of the next president.

Didn't Tinubu said he made a mistake of 50 million youths instead of saying 50 thousand months?

He wasn't above mistake then abi?

Feggie3:
As expected I know this where your argument will. You people can never be realistic in this country. How many of your past leaders have ever been 100 percent ready? He has simply told you these are the places he plans investing it, and that he will need to assemble an innovative team for that. He is extremely hopeful it will work out, but if he faces hitches he will soft pedal. He has the ideas, but why are you behaving like you are so sure of the future!

I am 90% sure that things won't get better in the next few years of the next President. Basically all countries are facing hard times and inflation. Even the best economies are seeing shege let alone developing countries.

One thing you don't know is that I'm very patient for leadership position cos I've held a post before. I understand how impatient people are how would expect you to perform magic as a leader. I would be able yo understand why we won't feel the good impact of the next president (no matter who he is) throughout almost half of his first tenure. But how many Nigerians would be that patient?

And the problem with PO, is that he's making the solution look easy. That when you do this, this and this will just happen. That when he gets there, he will invite siemens to Nigeria and in 4 years, there will be power. He doesn't even know if that plan in Egypt started over 15 years ago, he's just talking about how many power siemens have provided in Egypt in 4-5 years ago.
Tinubu wooed and persuaded Chinese investors to invest in Lekki seaport since 2006. And it wasn't till 1st of July 2022 (16 years after) that the first vessel landed in Lagos. That's after Lagos had 3 Governors with the 3rd completing his first term. So why does PO thinks that when he invites siemens they'll come to Nigeria the next day and build power station? That might not be what's he saying but that's what he's making people to believe and if in one year, they don't see any improvement, they'll start insulting him.
Most of his fans are very unrealistic. They already feel all Nigerian problems can be solved in his first 4 years. And this too much hope is dangerous.

jelel6:
Nice perspective and the simple reality for anyone who's in the hot seat.

I actually don't envy any would-be president of this country. Because in a country full of selfish, self-centred, and shortsighted groups of people, good luck trying to preach a common cause.

Yeah. I wouldn't advise anybody I'm close to to contest for Nigerian Presidency.

Acidosis:
The money Nigeria and Nigerians have paid bandits and kidnappers in the past 4 years can fund 100,000 gallant officers for 8 years.

This is own you guys always talk with emotions and not facts.

A salary of 70k for 100k police officers for a year is N84 billion. How much do they pay kidnappers in one year?

Tochj:
You are very right but
It's better we endure pains for sometime
Lay a foundation for better days for our children
We can't continue with artificial borrow borrow.

But majority of Nigerians are impatient. Will they hear word?

Feggie3:
You are not okay upstairs!!! He said he will remove it once he has 100 percent, prepared other benefits to cushion the effects of subsidy removal for Nigerians, but that if does cushioning effects are not achievable that he won't remove the subsidy.

And when will that 100% come? In one year? 2 years? Or even 8 year?
And how will he be able to get the 100% in the first place when there's still subsidy going on.?
Oil subsidy is the biggest wasteage or our money and if he doesn't remove it in his first year, he's wasting his time.

VirileNelly2420:
Stop talking nonsense. Sorry to sound da way.
What is the population of Lagos to start with?
... barely 15million as of 2022.
While Saudi Arabia has over 34million as of 2020.

Go and verify.

If Nigeria should manage it's resources well... We should b somewhere close to these top OPEC countries. I mean, nothing to show Nigeria is actually an OPEC nation. Gosh!

OK. Maybe I over exaggerated in the population of those countries. But you should do the addition yourself and tell us the population of those countries combined and how much only one of them produce in one day.

Nigeria is poor

jelel6:
This comment made my day.

I'll question the intelligence of anyone who thinks there's a messier out there capable of wishing our problems away by accident they become president.

After this Buhari administration, I'll think every Nigerian should have accepted that the problems of this country are too deep-rooted and multifaceted for any would be president to fix alone. Talk is cheap and even a fool can promise to make another a millionaire.

By their antecedents, none of the major presidential aspirant is exceptional in my opinion. They are all just different sides to the same coin.

True.

Even in normal FIFA game that we play at home, when you're not the one playing the game, you will see all the moves that who's with the game pad should have made. You see all the passes he should have made but didn't. How he should have used a up through pass instead of a normal pass, how he should have scored the goal instead of doing pass and score.
But when you hold the controller you'll still make the same mistake, and the person you collected the controller from will start his own round of corrections.

Now this is just ordinary PS 4 game o. Imagine ruling over 200 million people with over 250 tribes. It is when you get there that your eyes will clear.

casualobserver:
you insulted me because I said peter obi never gives a straight answer and now i am asking you to tell me what his responses were to 4 things 3 of which are simple yes or no answers and you too are waffling. is it only subsidy they asked him. you too are behaving like Obi. what did he say about state police and restructuring....these are simple yes or no questions.

I hope at least in your private moments even if you dont admit it publicly that there are real concerns with Peter Obi and what he says... he is too vague.

yes or no are you removing subsidy, are you introducing state police, are you restructuring, these things dont require story. Tinubu has already stated he will introduce state police, he has stated he will restructure and I am sure he will remove subsidy because the truth is no Nigerian aspiring for office can acheive anything if we do not remove subsidy. Subsidy in 2023 for example is more than our entire budget for education health and roads combined. Our subsidy in 2023 will build lagos to Ibadan rail 5 times, These are not issues on which a presidential candidate can be vague.


pepter Obi claims he wants to invest in the people, you cannot invest in the people without health and education, where will he get the money, in 8 years he didnt raise the IGR of Anambra, is it this same person that will raise the IGR of Nigeria? so if he has no track record of generating revenue, the only other option is to look at areas of waste, therefore subsidy is a key area especially as I said we spend More money on subsidy than we spend on Education, health, roads combined!!!

That is why Buhari should just remove fuel subsidy before he leaves. He's already hated by almost everyone. There's nothing he'll do that will make those who hate him to hate him less. So let he just remove the fuel subsidy and go. Cos people will hate the next President that removes it. I won't tho

agabaI23:
Nobody is expecting any miracle under one year. But someone can plug some loopholes by his own leadership. So much money is stolen at Nnpc. Nigeria doesn't know how much crude it produces per day.

Boko haram is a franchise. People are living big off it. Have you heard of the journalist that exposed why a certain Major committed suicide? Have you heard why he had to leave the country with nothing?

Bro, a lil leadership with the right person at the top will change a lot.

Listen, there is nothing like we don't know if.... these people have antecedents. Go and read my watch on Atiku. He is just interested in being the president. He is the one that started the bribery at the NASS.

Mr Tinubu cannot lead. He just wants to be a president. It is his turn. Somebody told you his plan for the youths and insecurity and you are still in doubt. He blacks sometimes. How do you expect him to function? Like Buhari?

The crowd following Obi will be less of Osinbajo was on the ballot.

OK o
