True

Atleast I learnt "ebi pa wa oo" last month

Pls, the lady banker that comitted suicide, where's she from?, remind me her name.

N3TRAL:
I vehemently and unequivocally disassociate myself with the APC and the government of President Tinubu.

Any resident of Nigeria who denies that Nigerians are not suffering worse than they did in 2022 is a liar who doesn't partake in national discourse for the good of the country but for personal gains. The irony is that majority of the times, the "personal gain" of the primitive and timid supporters is the mere satisfaction that someone from the region of the country they love to hate will not lead the affairs of Nigeria.

I can't trust you for any reason, the kind of bigotry and insults you heaped on a lot of Nairalanders and citizens for not seeing things from your perspective as an ardent APC and Tinubu supporter must have led many to depression, you never gave them the chance to express their feelings as long as they are not in your camp.
You are saying this possibly because you have relations in the North including Abuja who can easily be picked up by bandits and the government you spent months promoting is showing total nonchalance, the Wike you called a great guy is busy with Rivers State political crisis to bother about people now doing crowd funding to pay bandits.
I think you are a double faced personality

Benzigler:





Why should thunder fire him for speaking up? you don't want Nigeria to work?

If only you know the damage that this guy did to many on this platform with his inbuilt bigotry if you are not an APC or Tinubu supporter for several months you will understand even when you have superior arguments.
The killings by bandits in Abuja with Tinubu and APC showing nonchalance has shocked him and he is scared he could fall victim 😳

Streetdoctor:

Hausas never supported buhari to dis stupid level of Tinubu people

Yorubas are only reacting to the unnecessary insults on them. It has very little to do with Tinubu.

Ozommadu:

You no well
That last sentence na for wetin?

Which part of the sentence anger you?
Who no need money?

ILoveNG:


If only you guys can come out straight that the suffering is really affecting you people instead of hiding behind others.

Check the pages of Nairaland, you can only see pictures like this in the comments of you and your brothers. If it’s a lie then you can call me any name.

Thank you.

omohayek:

Your comments here are much more cogent and fact-based than the one you started the thread with, or the follow-up in which you insinuated (while carefully avoiding being explicit about who you were referring to) that Yorubas prefer northerners to people from the SE - which is rich with irony, given how many of the comments responding to this thread have been by the usual tribal warriors from that region gleefully mocking your "road to Damascus" experience or indulging in childish gloating.

Perhaps you ought to reflect on the possibility that any apparent lack of fondness for the SE you might be seeing just might stem from the unrelenting hostility, arrogance and hypocrisy of so many who claim that region as their place of origin (as witnessed on this very thread). The fact is that one hardly ever sees Hausas expressing such malicious intent towards people from the SW, and it is beyond reason to expect people to love those who seem to hate them intensely, despite millions of the group expressing said hatred having lived in their millions amongst the people they despise for decades, all the while unmolested and allowed to prosper. That said group seems to hate the northerners as much as it hates people from the SW is hardly any kind of redeeming feature.

Now, returning to the points you've made above, I agree with you that Cardoso has yet to prove himself being close to fit for the role of CBN governor, and I said as much on here, on the very day his appointment was announced. A good CBN governor needed to be someone with a strong economics background, as well as the backbone required to hike interest rates as needed no matter what Tinubu or other politicians might have wanted. Cardoso clearly lacked both qualities, which was why I foresaw he would be a failure in the role. It's clear that Tinubu has lost all appetite for serious reform after the backlash to his half-hearted effort at abolishing the petrol subsidy (which is still in place no matter what they say to contrary), so the last thing he wants is a CBN governor who is determined enough to bring down inflation to cause serious economic pain. Anything even slightly controversial (like deregulation of the power sector, or privatization of money-pit "parastatals" ) has been put aside for meaningless "palliatives" and other such measures to appease the masses. The consequence is that Nigeria's economy is now doomed to another 3 years of lackluster growth as we wait for the next electoral cycle to begin.

Having said all the above, what you need to ask yourself is not whether supporting Tinubu was the right thing to do, but whether any of the alternatives would have done better. Neither Atiku nor Obi have magic wands they could use to wish away the pain from abolishing the petrol subsidy, but they would still have been forced to start their terms by doing so, as the alternative was Nigeria defaulting on its foreign loans, and then being shut out of the financial markets for decades. Where would the funds have come from to offer more meaningful "palliatives" to appease the public wrath?

In addition, there is the question of whether either Atiku or Obi have shown themselves in word or deed as being even an iota more principled, honest or intelligent than Tinubu, and the answer is a clear NO. Atiku made his fortune by abusing every one of his public offices to award himself favorable concessions, while Obi refused to pay salaries or maintain roads for months on end, so he could skim the interest from parking the funds in a bank he had a share in, a sin he compounded through his theft of security vote funds (for which he was nabbed red-handed), his use of public money to prop up a brewery he controlled (by using his parents as fronts), and his opening of an offshore account in a foreign tax haven 4 years into his governorship. That was bad enough, but then look at how both men have pandered to the public at every turn since losing the election - neither has been honest that Nigeria was headed for serious short term pain no matter who won. I won't even get started on the reality that Obi could never have passed any legislation or got a single appointment through a NASS in which both the House and the Senate are controlled by the APC (and therefore, by Tinubu).

Please continue your criticism of Tinubu (criticism he richly deserves), but you don't do your argument any favors by giving it a tribal coloration suggesting he's in office because Yorubas are somehow particularly guilty of tribalism. If they were, Obi wouldn't have won in Lagos and Atiku in Osun, even as 90% of the SE gave their vote to a man they themselves called a "do-nothing" mediocrity while he was governor. If anything, it's the relentless, mostly baseless, and very clearly tribal nature of the attacks on Tinubu emanating from certain quarters which makes it harder for Yorubas to hold him to account. If the loudest voices against Tinubu are motivated purely by tribalism without regard for political ideology or personal records, what do Yorubas have to gain by abandoning their own for someone else's tribal champion who has nothing to offer beyond skewing appointments to his own "kinsmen"?

God bless your generation forever!

Don't mind these guys... I have said it before and I will say it again, any attempt by the Igbos to denigrate Yorubas because of Tinubu will be resisted and it won't end up well for either tribe.

You can come criticize and insult Tinubu without always making the Yorubas the subject of your mockery

Putindbutt:

What was the cause of her death?

What would one expect from a president who dodged interview through out his campaign period and never showed up for any debate he always read from a well articulated script from his campaign team when he actually entertained interview in London he kept shifting his questions to his ministers to be and you're expecting miracle from such a person........ naaaaah

What does interviews got to do with governance?. You talk like an illiterate. Your incompetent governors in SE granted interviews and how is SE now?. Your candidates at a point, abandoned interviews and started organising townhall meetings. Meanwhile Tinubu initiated townhall meetings.

Blackfire:




Thunder fire .......u

Dangot bless you

Ozommadu:


So because tilumbu has failed,no other person can do it?? Isn't that your analysis??

Like you supported buhari for 8 wasted years even after seeing his incompetency in the first 4year? I don't have anything to say to you because we're in this together, I just hope you're doing better.

Meanwhile, in 2027 we're still voting clueless tilumbu because to you neither Atiku or Obi is better...o Di mma

If you bothered to even glance at my comment history, you'd have known that I was one of the harshest critics of Buhari from the very start of his presidency, and that I predicted even then that his time in office would be a total failure, amounting to essentially a "lost decade" for Nigeria's economy. That you didn't bother to do even this minimal amount of homework before dashing off your nonsense about how I allegedly "supported buhari for 8 wasted years" says all there is to know about just how much your rantings are worth.

Oh, and by the way, it's Tinubu, not "tilumbu". At least take the effort to spell it right if you want to be taken for more than yet another semi-illiterate tribalist with an axe to grind.

If Tinubu do well we go praise him if he do bad like he's doing we go abuse him long side with his supporters.

Mention any SW. governor that is doing better than the governor of Ebonyi State and Abia State. You think is by mentioning huge IGR without any thing to show for it

Take it easy on yourself.

Is it only Nigeria that's going through tough times presently?
The whole world is bleeding.
Almost every where in the world presently people are suffering more than they did in 2022.

Nigerias issue is compounded by years of neglect of the masses by the political class.
BAT is trying to turn the fortunes of this great nation around... Let's give him a chance at it

Lol.. he said any SW governor. small pikin wan collect cane. Is it Abia the dirtiest state in the world, a state that does not have a government house since 1999, even Otti don relocate his office to his private house. Otti wey dey budget 1billion for food budget, you wan talk Ebonyi wey una dey call wawa, people wey full Lagos traffic. The two states are in the top 5 poorest states in Nigeria.
