I love Peter Obi.

You will be our President.

God is with you in Jesus name (Amen)

This man has nothing to offer than to tax poor hungry Nigerians and inflict them hardship.

But how is this an issue?

Obtaining a Nigerian passport is not what is spent on every month.

I feel this is too petty of a presidential aspirant.

You have a point ,this newest Immigration policy is pure madness . Govt will just come up with harukushanka way of doing things without due consultation. It is egregious and heartless .

A US worker earning mimimum wage needs to work for 23 hours to afford a passport.

A Nigerian worker earning minimum wage needs to work for more than 200 hours to afford a passport.

Tinubu's mission is to reduce purchasing power of the people.

Illogical comparison. The two economies are they the same? Are the GDP the same? We just enjoy comparing events with economies that are 500% better just to condemn.

Osiris12:
I just see say you no dey work

I dey level 8 and my pay is 82k/month .

Try talk another thing abegi

Na you no believe in yourself. Nobody is forcing you to work with Nigerian government. I guess you be an average or below average student when in school.
Vulcanizer wey no go school dey earn your monthly salary in a week.

Move on, bro.
No be we send you go look for PENSIONABLE JOB.

When you retire, we don’t want you to be part of those that would be carrying placards and protesting to government to pay their pension arrears.
Use your useful time well and stop complaining.

Wetin concern man wey dey collect minimum wage with passport? Will passport pay for basic needs?

MOG4LIFE:
You have ended up being grossly irrational yourself! Why should the cost of a Nigerian passport exceed minimum wage? Tell us

Why should house rents in our cities exceed minimum wage, if that’s how you are thinking about it.

Obtaining a Nigerian passport is a one-off thing. You will spread the cost of that passport over its useful life and know what it costs you per month for you to know whether it’s more or less than minimum wage.

It costs an average of N1643 per month to have a Nigerian passport that is valid for 10 years.

You too can calculate what it will cost to have that of N100k of 5 years’ validity. That should be around N825k, averagely.

Does any of that amount equal to a minimum of N70k stipulated as minimum wage for a month?

Use your IQ, man!

Lots of shal,low thinkers out here, m.hen.

Do you even understand the meaning of logic?

No, you don't.

After reading through this post and comments, bro honestly am beginning to love this administration with passion and come 2027 we move 4 + 4.
As far as we have not decided on what kind of Nigeria we want, let Tinubu show you guys the other side of 9ja.....

As at 2011 when the minimum wage was 18,000 naira, Gringori Obi hiked tuition from 36,000 to 86,000 and 120,000. In the first case, a whooping 115% increase, and in the later case over 300 percent increase!!

Compared to minimum wage at the time Gringori increased fees to between 500 to 900 percent of the minimum wage!!

But this is a man who thinks his past should mean nothing while he casts aspersions on every decision the government of the day takes. What exactly has Gringori ever criticised which he isn't more guilty of?

Well, he knows who these things are meant for.

ameachi laptop dogs. Hustle ooo, make them pay una this month 30k salary.

Am sensing an oppressed fellow that can't think outside the box or can't have a general view of things ....how to you want to improve your life when the govt is ready to milk you by 2026 tax bill is coming then you will understand

Softmirror:
Do you earn #70,000 too?! Worry more about how to improve your life.

When you grow old or maybe receiving pension then you will apologise for the misyarn uve done esp to your kids

Life is levels o. And it is all up to you.

ycat:
Na my post still be this o!

Passport should be more expensive, it’s one way for govt to make money. Passport is not needed within the country, it’s for traveling outside and traveling anywhere is not cheap.

Apart from Ur 30k monthly allowance... what other thing have they given you?

The biggest tragedy to have happened to Nigeria is coming of APC.
I want to tender my unreserved apology for supporting this complete disaster.
I regretted casting my vote for him.
He is a specialist in inflicting pains on the masses.

I have never looked forward to any per sion. I have more than N30m in my Standbic IBTC pension account that I have not even touched.

More so, I don’t pray to look up to any child or children before I feed in my life.

DANGOTE and co won’t wait for ounje omo.

Na you they think of how misera.ble your future will be without your children feeding you and that’s why you are looking up to your pension to build your own bungalow ‘to taste’

Obi should just sh*t-up. He talks too much, must he comment on everything? shior

chopnaira:
Hypocrite.

How much was minimum wage when you increased school fees to over 200,000 in Anambra State when you were governor?

This man is speaking out for you but due to the fact you support this disastrous government, you'll always keep attacking anything obi says.
This is quite shameful to you

What they are doing to achieve that u guys are not fulfilling it here .

If you are ask to pay tax u abuse the government
Past light u said no
Pay water u said government.

Go-to d street u see illgala wires and connections up and down 👎

Pay toll gate u still abuse the government but in developed countries or nations u can't bypass all this and yet they are growing 🍼..

We love free things but want to be developed 😭

Lanretoye:
When you see queue at the immigration office and people who want to procure your the same passport then you will understand that all these rants are needless and baseless.Nigerians can pay 500k for passport provided they will get it the same day.if with 100k you will get your passport in less than one week and without stress then I won’t need to wait 6months to get the same for 40k,if you die before the 6months will they bring the passport to your grave?

Now, after saying this, does it sound normal to you? Taking advantage of desperate people as a government, instead of trying to ease it. Wicked people thinking. They see rubbish as normal. If Naija was good, how many people go dey think of running(japa)?

An average worker in the U.S can travel out for holiday with just his salary, today a professor in Nigeria can't even purchase flight ticket with his salary for flight to travel out and there are people supporting this nonsense here because Tinubu is their man...

Tinubu's presidency really exposed a lot in Nigeria...

An average person working in the US works 2 jobs to be able to pay all his bills and has never in his life stepped outside his country . Shut your mouth from talking what you don’t know.

Some people work up to 3 jobs here in Nigeria and can't still afford local flight ticket, are you saying they are not hardworking enough?

EmperorIsaac:
On this, I stand with Peter Obi completely. This is a high level of insensitivity by Tunji!

For the first in 4 years that you made sense.
