May Day: Hunger, unemployment, insecurity real— Tinubu

According to him: “The theme demands our collective attention and serves as a stark reminder of the need to create an environment where every worker feels safe, valued, and empowered to contribute to the growth and prosperity of our nation. As your President, I assure you that this administration is committed to creating such an environment for the common good.”

On the economic hardship, he noted that while it is a global phenomenon, its effects on Nigerians are particularly severe.

Tinubu said: “I am aware of the peculiarities of the economic hardship Nigerians face—rising living costs, hunger, insecurity, unemployment, and the loss of livelihoods. These challenges are real and demand definitive solutions, which I am poised to address as your President.

That’s really cool, I love Tinubu because he rewards success, just succeed, no one cares how you do it

Looks like they were even more happy about the national honor than the cash gift and house, or maybe they are thinking the cash and house is just audio.

DenreleDave:
Giving 150m to each players is wasteful..... This is not good at alll..


How mmay citizen can each a dollar food In a full day yet the president does not care.....

Spending tax payer money for sumtin as ordinary like this... Please no one shud attack me óòo.......

If those players actually got that much cash and houses, make I bend.

This is a good guesture. It will motivate them to fight for the country at any stadium.

The next is for the people in charge to release the houses and gifts o. No be tomorrow now they will be dragging them online

Maxymilliano:
And police retirees are getting 2.8m as retirement benefits after serving the country for 35 years 😢

They will never stop complaining nothing satisfy them.

Na $2,850,000 (million) this man doll out like this just for eye service, chai, Nigeria don finish kpatakpata with the kind leaders we have

Putindbutt:
Bro, no police in the world earns close to footballers. Even Eyimba, Kano pillars, Remo stars earn more than they do. Forget emotion & face facts.

Inspector General of Police is laughing while reading this comment

Do you know how much the girls earned for Nigeria? $1 Million, and they have been winning for years without compensation, they deserve more than what they got today.

Police officials are getting egunje everyday. They are collecting their pensions in service with curses.


The footballers make us forget suffering and hardship when you watch them play. When you see police, you are afraid and may not know what they are going to extort form you.


Anyway, bless Nigerian police.
Gifts for super falcons. Though the want to kpai somebody in the first half.

Kastonkastroll:
I don't understand. Are they not supposed to sing the national anthem like normal people? Which one is "on your mandate we shall stand" ? What level of psychopathic behavior is that.

Continue to be stewpid. We are happily happy.

On his mandate we shall mandatorily stand


When your lord lamba was sharing 10 10 million...you know reason am that time

JAOS:
So the police work they are doing is not hustle
Police officers are entitled to their retirement benefits
government should always do what is right

But reason am ooo if popo come dy earn like footballers and basketball how Dem go take get strength and time to secure the country naw lol no be luxury lifestyle Dem go dy live so I believe that's why popo is not paid that much worldwide

Looks like this is a cumulative of the last 9 trophies won without any compensation.

[quote author=Putindbutt

The point being made is that...even though it's a wellcomed gesture...N200million for each of the 23 players(Each oo) and N100 million for each of the 11 Technical crew...(Totalling about 5billion as give-away) appears like an Overkill and a sign of Political desperation from the President...

...because Police retirees and others are crying and dying over their Pensions.(Police oo.)!

It's good to reward and honour the girls....despite their regular allowances...but all that money and N75 million Naira Bungalow for each person,bros, e no too much?

Shouldn't Tinubu eschew politics and learn to manage and dispense our resources accordingly?

N50 million for each player,N25 million for technical crew is more like it.

We are not a Nation of squanderers and wasters.Baba should lead by example

Krankhead:
Check your BP. Your life is full of Complaints, agony and ranting. Your are never happy. If it's the that Agulu package yes Daddy that build a latrine somewhere in the North , you all will be celebrating him.
Get life and go get a job.
Hey if you need a job I GET ONE FOR YOU

Chia, I just pity the guy. You came with fire and brimstone.

I bet you. The guy will sit down and reflect over his life.

You have saved a soul

I think the team was paid by CAF for all the stages of their qualifications, from the group stages, quarter finals, semi finals and for winning the cup. So whatever they are given is far less than the money that the NFF will be paid which will be credited to the Federation Account.

I warm, I warmly welcome😁
Na soup u dey warm

Impressive 👏

Sapeleboy911:
He is not talking about who earns more. He is talking about being duly compensated for their service. A $100k cash gift to a footballer who earns thousands, and million of pounds annually, while a police receives little to nothing after retirement is unfair. These are some of the reasons why corruption and extortion can never leave our civil service.

none of them earn up to a million pound

He didn't award them houses or plots of land in Abuja?

HeavenlyHolines:
The girls tried but the money is too much. The national awards and maybe 30k is okay including the house. Imagine soldiers who are dying in the North and we don't celebrate them. This magnanimity of the president might discourage some people who are laying their lives for the country

But you will jubilate when your favourite no talent BBN housemate wins the same fund .

Putindbutt:

Nobody is saying they should earn close to footballers. What is important is to treat them fairly. They should give them a reasonable amount such that there won't be need for them to complain, and there certainly won't be any basis to compare.

Maxymilliano:

They have already collected their own gratuity from the poor motorists and helpless Nigerians whom they constantly 'obtain' daily on the road.

When was the last time you were happy as a Nigerian. When was the last time you felt proud being a Nigerian. These girls just made the entire nation happy and you say this?

Maxymilliano:

these sadist mentality that makes one never see anything good will only make life miserable for some people,if your sister Dey among the players she no go collect am.

Putindbutt:
Even abroad, footballers are much richer than Government officials, I don't even want to talk about Basketball players who earn 100x the salary of Trump. Don't hate them, hustle.

They earn from salaries or endorsement or business.

It's not Donald Trump that gifts them.


And again, all these national honours are unnecessary.

Can we honestly compare winning a sports competition to ,say, formulating a theory in science, or inventing something new?

So if our basketball team wins, hockey team wins, table tennis team wins, etc is this how we will continue dashing out billions along with national honours?

The girls be like...do we have to endure this speech again?

Far be it from me. I have never watched it
