Yeah,round peg in a round hole .This is where BAT is 100% better than PMB.

That is commendable and a welcome development. God bless federal republic of Nigeria.

Another propaganda parade

I really thought Tinubu and his appointees were being recognized internationally for reducing poverty, turns out it’s just another round of self-sponsored awards

You missed out Giringori, he's Tinubu's number one appointee. His own international recognition was proudly sponsored by the Pandora papers

Just Yorubas filling Nigeria quota in international organisations recommanded by tinubu the chief tribalist of all time.

helinues:
They have been doing their best in their respective sectors

only exception is Bosun Tijani. You dey whine yourself.

Those international bodies are bigots. They're nepotistic. They are SW international bodies. Why did they pick more Yorubas than others for those awards? Why they hate igbos like this? Boo hoo.

Pakute:

Pls repeat this without the sobs.

naturefellow:

How about Keyamo at the Aviation sector?

I read this with the hope of seeing may be about 50 or more people he appointed in the list,only to see 6 names with no so much relevant foriegn recognition and which has nothing to do with their achievements as an appointee of Tinubu.A man that have appointed over 300 people into various positions and yet the online 30 thousand naira media crew charlatans are here jumping up and down in other to earn their pay check for this month. I almost forgot is month end,they need to hurry up and get paid.

TimeManager:
Don't forget their oga at the top, the Jagaban himself.

-Kiss the truth!

I remember this Times publication really threw deveropers into top gear wailing and weeping. Those comics.

Disenfranchised:
Just Yorubas filling Nigeria quota in international organisations recommanded by tinubu the chief tribalist of all time.

Wipe your eyes pls. You'll need a whole blanket with the way the floodgates are opened.
