'but They Said They Are The Whiz Kids From Lagos' Prof Yusuf Dankofa by AustineE1: 5:25am On Feb 08 |
Prof Yusuf Dankofa wrote this on 5th Feb 2024, 17hrs he was dead... Read on : "But they said they are the whiz kids from lagos That the magic of lagos was going to be reignited at the federal level Eight months after,it is ebin kpawa What really happened Where are the heroes of lagos What is on the ground shows that the policy makers from eko do not understand governance The policy flip flop has created a condition of acute poverty Just like one commentator said,only those in the corridors of power are smiling The rest are facing armageddon,a state of calamity and brutality The politics of the land is toxic as only lagosians are in power, while the other "O" states are lamenting Cronyism and inner caucus have betrayed the movement Emilokan movement is so ordinary and bereft of ideas that grand old Buhari that spent eight years junketing is even perceived to be better. So,Emilokan is about the fulfilment of personal ambition Even the Imams that were shouting Muslim/Muslim tickets are busy gnashing their teeth They have now become wiser That the Muslim/Muslim agenda is a hoax Now they can't go for pilgrimage because they don't have N5M Where will they see the dollar Who dash monkey banana No politician is even visiting their mosque anymore Even Mr. Vice President has become a motivational speaker He is busy admonishing Nigerians to be of good behaviour since leaders who are to turn things around have lost ideas The ideas that were robustly generated during electioneering campaigns have vaporised into thin air Now,the singsong by the talakawas is hunger Our currency is as worthless as a river that ships cannot navigate You need a bagco cement sack of naira to seek $300 The economic gurus of lagos have been turned into ordinary finance speculators All those spotless suits and Oxford shoes are just abracadabra What happened to years of study at Harvard and Yale School of Economics Social media have been laughing at them Even Zimbabweans and South Africans are having a good laugh South Sudan,a country as poor as anything, is poking Nigeria Pls where is the Save Nigeria Group Where are Professor Wole Soyinka and Pastor Tunde Bakare that gave Jonathan nightmares Where are all the lagos musicians Where are the Kuti brothers Have they forgotten their fathers lyrics 44 sitting and 99 standing This is when the talakawa need them most Have they forgotten their Uncle Dr Beko Ransome Kuti Where are the offspring of Late Dr Bala Usman in this respect And where are the Professor Pantamis of this world That cried and prayed that the Jonathan administration should be changed And what has changed today And why are there no prayers to the Almighty that the poor should be rescued The Lagos politicians have failed the people They boasted that it is about brains and not brawl This is the regime of the most educated people in Africa What a paradox" Prof. Yusuf Dankofa 05/02/24 ADDENDUM ..... ‼️‼️ Prof. Yusuf Dankofa died today 6th February, a day after writing this treatise on Tinubu.

..'at a time when saying the truth is a heroic act',may the soul of prof. Yusuf rest in perfect peace,as he experiences the joy of elysium and pls tell our founding fathers that the country they left for us is now in ruins.That politicians with glutonic greed now revels with impunity in the worst forms of corruption and misrule. Tell them that naira is now so worthless that we need a bag of it,to pay school fees and eat a decent meal.That the 'labour of our heroes past',seems to now be in vain.Tell them we can no longer travel within Nigeria without first saying our last prayers because of insecurity.Tell them that our heart bleeds!!! 4 Likes 1 Share |

Couldntfigurean: I can bet my bottom dollar that Tinubu does not have 5 O'levels and all he is skilled at is dealing, sniffing drugs, forgery and looting the treasury. Even his US Uni exams must have been sat for him by someone he paid. What am I even saying, From Tinubu's submitted documents to Chicago University, he graduated from Government College Lagos in MAY 1970 but the school was formed in 1974. ?? The same criminal once said he went to Government College Ibadan and when scrutinized, he retracted this statement and changed it to Government College Lagos which the criminal claims he graduated from 4 years before the school was even formed. ?? The Principal of Government College Ibadan to prevent press scrutiny, actually absconded and went into hiding with the full records of ALL students who attended GCI at the same time our Criminal President Tinubu lied that he attended GCI. In the US, Tinubu stole a woman's name, identity and Social Security number and he forged a lot of Certificates to actually get admitted into Chicago State university where he MUST have paid someone to sit his exams for him. Tinubu also clearly forged the Chicago State university certificate he submitted to INEC but the BASTARD Supreme Court Judges looked the other way once Tinubu paid them colossal bribes and they sold generation of unborn Nigerians to Tinubu's pillage and financial banditry. Lets see where all this ends. 4 Likes 1 Share |

The professor of hypocrisy will surely rot in the grave. These are the same people that ruined Nigeria. Where was this professor when the Hausa-Fulani elites were busy plundering Nigeria forex? Was it the gang of Lagos that stole $12B gulf oil windfall? The gang of Lagos must have been responsible for the billion of US$ stacked in foreign countries by the late despot Satanic Abacha! Was is the gang of Lagos that breeds the over 30M Almajiris in Northern Nigerian? Was it the gang of Lagos that under developed Northern Nigeria and rendered them economically unproductive? Was it the gang of Lagos that spent significant Nigeria forex earnings in Saudi Arabia and Jerusalem? Was it the gang of Lagos that printed N21T via way and means? The gang of Lagos indeed must be responsible for not printing enough dollars to meet the insatiable appetite of Hausa-Fulani black market operators who are busy hoarding forex in other to tarnish the gang! The gang of Lagos must indeed be responsible for sending Nigerian students for overseas education! Wait a minute, the professor forgot to tell us that the gang of Lagos was primarily responsible for increase in Medical tourism that must be funded with dollars. This professor was one of the oligarchs that ruined Nigeria economy. His write up was a trash. The loop holes through which they drain the resources is being blocked by the gang of Lagos. The current administration is trying, the hypocrites and the Northern elites are not talking about the root cause of the current woes. These are the same opportunists that sold Nigeria crude that hasn't be produced in advance without accounting for the proceeds. They are sad coz Tinubu won the election, they lost on the field, and at the supreme Court. Terrible Hausa-Fulani elites that meant no good thing for Nigeria, only to mortgage the resources that was never theirs. 1 Like 1 Share |

aariwa: Lol. It is very much a maxim of our existence today that it is those most ignorant, most insultive and most lacking in knowledge/decorum who are most uncouthly vocal on social media. A leader who has achieved all Tinubu has is to be viewed a "dunce" yet what are you exactly?

Mankind2024: Well-said. Most sad is the reality that majority of Nigerians have no abiding integrity. Say what they wish to hear and they praise you even if you are the personification of hypocrisy, dubiousness and duplicity. It would be interesting if anyone can conduct a search to see if this Prof Dankofa, and indeed most leaders from the North like Atiku etal, were ever this scathing of Buhari who has created the enormous mess, over 8 long years, they now expect Tinubu to resolve in a few months. Any averagely intelligent person would also not miss the mischievous and ungracious invocation of "whiz kid of Lagos" which betrays the envy many Northern leaders, as the incorrigible misrulers they are, have for Tinubu and his team of superior administrators from Lagos. We know they are very irritated over the entire world making Nigeria about Lagos but such is entirely merited and Northern leaders, if they really have the interest of their people at heart, would be looking to learn from Lagos administrators rather than make bitchy and snide remarks about them. They have all found their voices to descend on Tinubu today yet are we to forget these same hypocritical Northern leaders are entirely responsible for the North contributions whopping 87% to the total number of the most poverty-ravaged Nigerians existing today. This would include messiah and saviour Atiku demanding Tinubu step down after a few months when he never made such a call against Buhari over 8 years. I will only be disappointed in Tinubu if he does not deliver regional autonomy to allow us all go and make the best of ourselves from our respective regions rather than endure with 'one Nigeria' that gives hideous misrulers the temerity to be playing fifth columnist and revisionist 'advocates of good governance'. The reality, if these people had even an iota of shame, is that they should be hiding their faces in shame for how they have let their own people down, with hideous and horrendous misrule, over many decades to the extent the North today host many with some of the worst human development index in the entire universe in what is a big disgrace to our nation. 1 Like |

naijaboy756: If you cannot give a bright child what is deemed a decent amount of time to learn a more difficult new subject and excel at it as he/she has done in the past, then what does that say about you? Also, would adults who reason better than you not conclude it is you who is ignorant and unreasonable and not the child who has a problem considering he/she has excelled as a scholar before and only need reasonable time repeat similar success to that he/she has achieved before? In the end, all this talk is incontrovertible proof most Nigerians are ignorant and lack knowledge of the problems of our nation and the solutions required. It is why, for example, you cannot understand the simple concept that a floated Naira, I.e allowed to attain it real and comparative value, will suffer devaluation before real and improved economic output and activities will turn things around to give Naira greater value against other currencies. There is no way some of the unavoidable reforms needed to rescue Nigeria can bear tangible results in less 2 years because the holistic and fundamental nature of the reforms. It is your own ignorance that makes you think otherwise. 1 Like |
