He is not detached from the people but rather more inclined to 2027 rigging mechanism.
Once his date boys are working, it's ok for him.

When we thought the worst is being over, fuel is now N905 in Abuja, in Lagos it will become N865 before the day ends. No cooking gas now. Poverty and hardship on the rise. grin grin grin grin grin
Do You Also Blame the Gas ⛽ issues on Tinubu or Una Unionism you love most?
Learn to call a Spade its name!
If you dare blame Tinubu on the Gas,then I recommend that the Unions holding Nigeria to ramsome should be banned,so we have peace of mind!

I thought laughing emojis were for funny or sarcastic stuff. What is funny in what you posted? Oh! You should be a deveroper. Laughing emojis for something not remotely funny portrays a maniacal tendency. It could also portray someone who's trying to cover his true feelings (that is, pain and agony). Both scenarios are the laboratory tests for a deveroper.

The worst is the Tinubu himself until 2027 when the narrative change.

I always tell people who care to listen that the masses are the major problem of Nigeria. Just watch, another election year will soon come and you'll still see some mu-mu voters selling their votes......The money wey you collect the last time nai still dey sustain you till now?

They always tell us to be patient but what these mu-mu voters don't know is that the families of these politicians ain't feeling the hardship.
i have a simple question. What will you do differently? If the current economic reforms are not sustained for the next 10years, we are doomed again as Yaradua threw away all the gains we made under Obasanjo
Next phase is to fix infrastructures, put more funds into healthcare and Education. Sustainable housing financing should be emplace so you dont have to hall 100% cash before you build your house. emplace a good credit system

They keep trying to paint a picture that Tinubu’s officials are shielding him from the realities. Like, didn’t he know about the Benue massacre and keep quiet until VDM covered it, and even the pope condemned it from thousands of kilometers away?
If not for the Pope, he would not have gone there at all. That shows you the power of a Pope.

I love Nigeria. Nigeria is blessed, but Nigerians don't want Nigeria to work. Leaders and followers are the same on different levels and places.
Nigeria is a contraction that need to be disbanded for it to function properly.

The problem with nigeria is that for over 60 years, we have been living in a fake reality, and even now, including those who rule over us right now, still live in that fake reality.

I would have said more, but as the old proverb says...the truth will set one free, but first it would p*** you off.

Ah well, it is sad that we don't have ...good afternoon
Preach it brother, preach it
You have the right to your agbadeau

Three kinds of Nigerians on this site

those who believe tinubu is doing a good job...and close their eyes to the bad job he is doing

those who believe that if Obi takes over, corruption will dissapear and Naira will become N1 to 1 dollar

those who want to break up the country, because it means somehow they get to live like Dubai.



Those who see the big picture are few....but everyone else calls them agbado and obident.... cheesy

You cheered pengassan and expect cheap fuel and cheap gas??

Goan collect your cheap gas from pengassan.

We told you you guys that thier action will have direct impact on the masses but una refused to listen
Was fuel and gas cheap before PENGASSAN struck?
You're really going to blame PENGASSAN for the high cost of fuel? Really?

How political office can humble people

The earlier you realize we don't have a president the better for you guys.

We are better off without a president anyway.

This is very true and accurate. I have always said all what they have said and analysed. So is the worst over yet?

Nigeria is blessed with talents. If you meet a Nigerian abroad is who hardworking and law abiding, chaii you will know that the training we have gotten in Nigeria can take us an where

Oddly enough, I have same sentiment and it feels weird amidst all the complaining.
What do you love about Nigeria?
Re: Is The Worst Over In Nigeria? - Punch Editorial by musicwriter(m): 7:03pm On Oct 07, 2025
Not yet. However, the president's policies will pay off but it will take time to materialize.
What he did should have been done since the 80's. We would have gotten used to it by now
Re: Is The Worst Over In Nigeria? - Punch Editorial by Elusive001: 7:23pm On Oct 07, 2025
When they tell you that allocations to states has increased in this bad regime, tell them that when Tinubu took office in May 2023, it was about N460.72 to $1. Today, it stands at around N1,500 to $1.

This means that revenues gotten in Dollars will be 3.26 times of what it was in May 2023. This implies that allocations to states will now be nothing less than 3.26 times of what there were in April 2023. This is aside all the newly imposed levies, tarrifs, taxes, fees, etc

Reform without public sector reform is no reform at all.

Without fixing Nigeria's public sector and her ailing, dying institutions - this so called reform is no different from pouring water into a basket. At the end of BAT'S term in office we will hear nothing but the usual excuses for failure - just like other administrations before his.

True leadership requires sacrifice and the force of personal example. These qualities are in very short supply in this administration and thus, failure is inevitable.

The administration continues to waste money on large overheads while preaching to the rest of us about the 'courage' it took to remove fuel subsidy and 'unify' exchange rates. undecided The same administration has violated the constitution by refusing to publish budget implementation reports since last year. What does that tell you? undecided

No be by faith, otherwise you go old there.

A country is not run by faith.

The worst cannot be over with people like tinumpu and Wike and akpabio in the corridors of power.
