PBAT is far from making Nigeria a better country for Nigerians, but Atiku is much farther from being even a smart opposition.
Namaster:
"Let’s see the ministers—those shameless Rolls Royce connoisseurs—sweat it out in Nigerian-made vehicles too."

Atiku is NOT a smart guy. He also DOESN'T know how to hire smart guys.

Of all the shittiness he could attack the FAILED Tinubu Government for, he chose a BEER PARLOUR argument of extremely DUMB whataboutism.

He uses "sweat it out in Nigeria-made vehicles" which implies he knows that Nigerian vehicles are not yet up to the standard of their foreign counterparts.

YET Atiku thinks it's a good idea for the President of a POLITICALLY-VOLATILE country such as Nigeria to use it as his official car in a PERFORMATIVE attempt to pacify a PERENNIAL loser like Atiku.

Atiku is NOT a smart guy.

Nigerian President Bola Tinubu’s first supplementary budget includes a fleet of SUVs for himself and his wife, a presidential yacht and the renovation of his villa amid a cost-of-living crisis for some of the poorest people in the world.

The proposal — which seeks additional funding beyond the annual budget approved by Tinubu’s predecessor — comes as the government asks Nigerians to persevere through pain caused in part by a raft of economic reforms ushered in by the new president. Africa’s most populous country faces rampant unemployment, soaring food prices and a plummeting currency.

Federal lawmakers approved the president’s request for extra spending on Thursday, but eliminated the provision of 5 billion naira ($6.01 million) to buy a presidential yacht. Instead, they doubled the allocation to a student loan fund to 10 billion naira, according Abubakar Bichi, chairman of an appropriations committee in the House of Representatives.

The lawmakers approved 1.5 billion-naira proposed to purchase SUVs for the office of First Lady Oluremi Tinubu — an amount larger than that allocated to many individual federal colleges. The supplementary budget also proposes almost 6 billion naira to purchase SUVs for the presidency — more than the amount initially allocated to fund a student loan program for poor families.

imagine the audacity, Agbero want to tell others to follow orderliness shocked shocked


Before an Agbero can talk about civility and orderliness, he must first purge himself of the spirit of lout and thuggery, that's when humans can take him serious.


A cocaine sniffing baron is talking about stopping drug trafficking, is that not a joke taken too far?


This Agbero Regional President self, funny old man cheesy

300 million people and all the cars are imported.

Not even a single assembling plant in Nigeria.

President gets on air to shout "Nigeria First"


Then drives off in his American "Chevrolet Escalade"

Time for Medicals he gets on an "French Airbus private Jet, to go to French hospitals, to see French Doctors"

Once he is stronger....He comes to Nigeria and shouts "Nigeria First"
When did Nigeria become 300 million?

At least, Phrank Shaibu called out their pretence and deceit. There’s nothing ‘Nigeria First’ about Tinubu and his lilliputians. I hope you’d agree with that.

I don't understand you guys, so anyone that wants to be president should just keep quiet and watch even the failures and inconsistencies of tinubu until he finishes his term then he can come to fix just the way tinubu kept quiet for buhari to destroy this country. Didn't tinubu criticize other presidents?
Why should any sensible person criticize the Nigeria first policy? Is that criticism or sheer stupidity? Apart from personal attacks, what exactly did Atiku say in this press release that makes any sense to a reasonable person?

Is Atiku the one who removed subsidy, devalued Naira, raised taxes to worsen unemployment, inflation, extreme poverty, insecurity etc as the APC shege beat continues after 10 years of extraordinary cluelessness covered up in propaganda?

What has changed for better since ebilokan made his 2011 expired soldier president of the FRN huh

World Bank offers Nigeria forex rate advice, as Tinubu eyes N200/Dollar rate

April 23, 2023

The President-elect said he would work with the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to *bring down the exchange rate to N200 in his first term.*

“My administration will collaborate with the Central Bank to harmonize the fiscal and monetary policy to achieve immediate stabilization of the value of the naira against the US dollars and other currencies and in the short term, strengthen the naira by boosting the supply of foreign currency and moderating demand.

“The short-term goal is to achieve a naira/dollar rate of 300 naira/US$ and gradually achieve a less than 200 naira rate over the next four years, Tinubu stated.

Years ago, OBJ having adopted a "low profile" policy settled for a made in Nigeria Peugeot 504 saloon as his official car. He encouraged civil servants to take to farming in their spare time and went ahead to build a his own farm. That's living by example.

Of course, like everyone else he has his faults.

The eyesore on Bourdillon Road
2nd January 2025

Beyond his neighbours, there is something about the sight of people hanging around a president’s residence that does not speak well of his leadership capabilities. Maybe no one has nudged him to see it, but the impression that spectacle on Bourdillon Road generates is that Tinubu enjoys the sight of suffering humans and thrives in—and through— their poverty.

If all these years, impoverished people hang around you and you remain comfortable enough to keep them just so they can be handed tokens of your large heart, then it means you have a pro-poverty mindset. Such a frame of mind is oriented toward cultivating poverty rather than stimulating abundance.

That is why he could unproblematically relate the story of his “friend” who went from using five Rolls Royce to a far-less valued car and not consider the import of the nonsense he was saying. That spurious account was an indication that this is a man for whom poverty—of others, not himself—is an ideal.

Dear Atiku,he can't.He can never practice what he preaches.
Re: "Nigeria First": Trade Your Escalade For Innoson Motors - Atiku Tells Tinubu by delpee(f): 8:34am On May 07, 2025
Reference:
If the Nigerian vehicles are 'not up to standards..', is the government itself up to standard.

Now if the government tells us to bear with their inadequacies, why can't they bear with the inadequacies of 'made in Nigeria'.

Last week in Abuja I saw on the streets a late model Mercedes G wagon with the insignia of an army two star general. How come.
Was this issued to him as an official vehicle or he bought it for himself and branded it after the military.

These are the issues facing Nigerians. Reforms start at the very top, the very top.
Hmmm! Yet our soldiers are poorly equipped.

Anyway, FCT oga is now riding a Rolls Royce. One wonders if it's a government funded official car.

tungamaje:
But Atiku is right in this. Since we produce local cars, our leaders including the president should lead by example by driving local cars. Or are our leaders exempted from buy Nigeria and use Nigeria?
Indeed.

What does the Russian president drive, what does the Japanese PM drive, what does the British PM drive, what does the German Chancellor drive, what does the American president drive.

If you call for a policy then do the work of chief marketer. Then virtue will flow downwards, after all leadership is all about sacrifice. Emmanuel Macron uses a Renault Rafael. Ridiculous but as chief marketer he has to. That is leadership.

You can have anything in your private garage and use them off duty but for the four year tenure in office you are a billboard for Nigeria whether the products are fantastic or not.

PBAT is yet to have in his convoy a vehicle that is being driven by gas but he is promoting same......
