the last people i care about are Nigerian police. They have collected enough bribes to cater for their pensions!
Is it all police men that take bribe?

They aren't talking about what footballers nor police are earning as salary. All they need is for government to pay them their right which is the gratuity after retirement
Do you understand English at all
The man matter tire me
Simple English he refused to understand

How can people get paid 2.8m after retirement and we expect them to serve us well as professionals

And police retirees are getting 2.8m as retirement benefits after serving the country for 35 years 😢
LOL...you Nigerians are never satisfied.

Several years ago, Obasanjo, when he was in power, said no more gifts for football teams that win, na only handshake he go give am. FIrst team to get the handshake was the falcons team that won the WAFCON that year.

Nigerians really went to town on the government. Abuse, abuse and even more abuse.

Me, I don't think players should be getting too many gifts from government, but if tinubu no give am, you guys will still grumble.

Female footballers, by the way, don't earn enough at all. Women's football is a sport that is so broke, the highest earner earns something like 150000 dollars a month, or less.

What about the police that are paid 2.8m after retirement.
They're more than 30 people, and increase in one segment triggers every other segment increase demand and inflation. You must have done business studies if you went to school.

The police still in service are free to join the football clubs so they can get $100k instead of #2.8.

giving out our national money. Is the money his own?

I'm not against the govt rewarding people who raise our flag high, but truth be told, that money is just too much wastage. 150m each player. Pure wastage from a country paying 73000 minimum wage.
You'll be healed.

Nobody said he shouldn't give them anything, but $100k is just too much for a country it government spend everyday of it lives complaining to it citizens that there is no money in the country.

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
It is actually you that should go rent a life because you are just full of 🌽 fused priorities....

Like what's the relationship between Police gratuity and his life full of agony and ranting??

What's the relationship between getting a job and what he saidhuh

You don't even know if the monicker is a police man and felling neglected by the Government...

And that didn't do you, you still found a way to connect him to someone that gives you heart attack in your dreams ...

Like what's the relationship between Police, their gratuity, your transfer of anger, Agulu and the young man also to whether he has a job or nothuh

i have tried to understand your own issue but sincerely speaking, you need urgent medical checkup ..

Regardless of the President’s gesture toward the Super Falcons, opinions will remain divided — some will deem it excessive, others inadequate. Had the team lost, the blame would have inevitably been directed at President Tinubu. One undeniable truth remains: habitual critics are rarely ever satisfied, they will always find a reason to complain.

Try and live within the circle of government, then you will just know is all about praying for your time and being humble to be dragged closer to the juicy cake....there are billions of dollars in Nigeria ...

One of the most disappointing and directionless presidents Nigeria has ever had. At this point, it’s honestly shameful to admit I share the same ethnicity with this embarrassment of a leader.

In a country where minimum wage is ₦70,000, where millions can’t afford three meals a day, and where crime has become the only “economic plan” for the youth, this president thought it wise to gift $100,000 per player to Super Falcons — a team that already earns between $5,000 and $10,000 per match in bonuses. Do the math — that’s over $35,000 per player from FIFA already, and now $2.3 million more in taxpayer funds is being burnt for PR.

This is not reward — it’s reckless spending, a slap in the face of every suffering Nigerian. That money could have set up hundreds of small businesses, empowered real entrepreneurs, or funded job creation programs. Instead, it went to make a political statement wrapped in mediocrity.

This government isn’t just wasteful. It’s bankrupt — morally and intellectually.

And for those still praising this madness, I pity you. You're either blind to the suffering around you or beneficiaries of this rot. The youth are choosing fraud and prostitution not because they want to, but because the system has made it the only viable option.

2027 must be different. We need a radical break from Tinubu, Atiku, Obi — all of them. No more recycled promises. No more rigging from Abuja. Let results be announced and respected from the ward to the top.

If Nigerians don’t unite to pick the right leader — someone with brains, vision, and integrity — then the future will be darker than the present. We will all suffer while the president’s friends and influencers live large, flaunting wealth from doing absolutely nothing. Fashion billionaires with government-backed fame, living off a broken system.

It’s not just disappointing anymore — it’s disgusting

This is crazy, it will take a senior government official, doctors or senior lecturer on 500k salary more than 304 years to earn that kind of money. Even top directors in the ministries, consultant medical personnel's on 2 millions naira salary will have to work for 75 years before they earn that kind of money. The 3 bedroom they gave them will not less than 50m naira as well.

50m each and a house would have been more reasonable. Tinubu government is the mother of wastefuness.

All these for just eyes service. Many Nigerians cannot afford basic things of life but here is the president doing jamboree with the money they made us believe they don't have to make life easy for the masses.
I wonder how much this man is giving those politicians decamping on daily basis. We can never be fooled by this useless gesture. Nigerians are angry and hungry. 2027 is the end of this rubbish by God grace.
Call it whatever you like, Tinubu remains the best president ever in the history of this country, at least since the start of democracy in 1999.

You are entitled to your own opinion and our opinions don't have to align. If you make your country proud and you are well rewarded, how does that translate to eye-service? I've always known that good news is heartbreak for some people but I don't care. Tinubu till 2031

I didn't say they shouldn't be rewarded but the 100k is outrageous looking at other patriots who have laid down their lives for the country and are living like puppets
Which patriots ? You mean police and army?100k is not even enough,do you even know that CAF gifted 1st place team more than a million dollar?
