For everyone ranting, pls kindly paste the money generated from each region and also money given back to each region, the percentage, let's compare if the contributions and ratio of money received is ok.
Eg, if a region contribute like 70 billion and received over 300% back in allocation

Despite being no fan of Tinubu, I am really happy that he is beating them at the game their late demigod Buhari started.

Let them go and hang transformer. People with born-to-rule-without-responsibility mentality.

If it gives anybody comfort though, just know that these approvals are on paper only and the funds would be largely shared amongst our overfed oligarchs. For perspective, does anyone know how many billion of US dollars that have been sunk into the Lagos Ibadan expressway alone, a largely 2 lane highway of less than 100miles that we have not been able to complete in about 20 years?

But not to pay mind to the northern tear-bearers who are always wanting more money, more power, more more more. Imagine if the names of the alleged coup plotters were Southerners, not to mention them being South-Easterners, the whole north would have been on fire 🔥🔥 by now.

And yet, despite the heavy government spending in the north over the centuries by successive administrations, there is no commensurate evidence in the quality of life of our northern brothers.

Open sepulchers all of them.
The guy should shut the hell up. How much is the Nigerian budget for defense every year and what is the percentage going to fighting terrorism in the North? The allocation for defense in the 2025 budget alone is #3.10 Trillion, interior#1.11 Trillion, National security #690 Billion. The total security budget is almost #7Trillion. The US is now claiming that most northern politicians are complicit in the fathom war on terrorism. Every real investment in all parts of Nigeria is at least adding value even with only 30% implementation but what is the value we are getting from over #3 trillion spent on fighting terrorism every year?

You guys have forgotten buhari did same thing and even went ahead to borrow money for construction of railway line to Niger republic.
Pls what is the equivalent of the newly constructed Abuja to Kaduna railway line? Is there any similar thing newly constructed in south east or southwest?
Buhari and the north did same thing for many years infact when they approved any project outside the north they don't fund it. They just divert the money to another project in the north.
I remember the south west leaders had to beg on media before Lagos to Ibadan road was rehabilitated . Incase you don't know for over 15yrs badagry to mile 2 was is a state of disrepair despite it being an international boarder road.

Did buhari not close all borders in the southwest for 8yrs while the northern border was open?
Tinubu is a real Yoruba man allow him to level the playing field .

Are you being sarcastic here or do you prefer to have your own region and tribe bombed out with N30 billion as you enjoy with repentant separatists or money ritual criminals?
after creating a situation that wastes trillions, they want projects. Wooow.

The joke is on you. The North comprises 3 zones, NW, NE and NC. Is the South comprised of only SW? Buhari distributed projects and appointments equitably across these 3 zones in the North, is Tinubu doing the same? Northerners from these 3 zones massively voted for Buhari, I hope Southerners from all 3 zones (SW, SS and SE) will massively vote for Tinubu? Don't forget that the "Northern tear-bearers" gave Tinubu 5.6m votes after he managed to win only 4 Yoruba states in the entire South.

Buhari delivered these projects in the Southwest; Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Lagos-Ibadan Railway, Badagry-Apapa Road, Lekki Deep Seaport, Murtala Muhammed International Airport terminal, and several other projects. In summary, Buhari gave the Southwest roads, rails, airports and seaports. Fashola was Buhari’s most powerful minister with initial 3 solid portfolios of Power, Works and Housing. List the projects of Tinubu in the North that is commensurate. Time is a gentleman.

This baffles me. Most of you complaining are living in Lagos but get anger whenever FG invest in Lagos.

I bet you prefer Buhari that'll invest the money in Nigeria.

Nigerians Presidency should simply be rotational (turn-by-turn)

Because every President especially Buhari and now The Chief Bigot President Tinubu channels the nation’s resources including borrowed funds to his region and state at the detriment of other regions.

So if it’s rotational then each region will calmly wait to take their own pound of flash from the national cake.
Presidency will not be rotational.
Go and contest if you're good enough

Tinubu is free to do whatever he likes and let his tribes men keep hailing him, karma is a bitch. Others will get their turn one day and we shouldn't forget that every actions or inaction today is in the internet. It shall be turn by turn eroding the existence of this country.

Buhari (Northerner) was the John The Baptist Who Prepared The Way For Tinubu.. Not Forgetting, When The North Was In Power, The North Smiled Too.. It's a party by region politics... Just pray if things get worst, it doesn't affect your pocket.
Re: South-West FEC Meeting: Salihu Yakasai Criticises Lopsided Projects Distribution by olamsaheed: 6:34am On Nov 08, 2025
I dont think most of you complaining have ever passed through north roads, the road network in the north is way better compared to every other region. And this is as a result of years of northern military rulers who concentrated more infrastructural developments in the north.
So, tribalism is not a today thing.

how about they add defence expenditure to this and publish side by side. Don't expect to enjoy N30B bombs and more in funds to repentant banits, then get lion's share of project's.
God bless you. Them collect bomb, they still want development. Remembered a a 100m dollar hospital burnt to ground in borno.

Shawarmagirl:
Yorubas will be shouting 'IT IS THE TURN OF THE SOUTH'. But in reality, all projects goes to South West.

The North should shut up and face their front. When Buhari was doing it, they accepted it and throw blind eyes just as South West accept it now and throw blind eyes. Another President from another region will eventually emerge and the Yoruba will come and wail as the North is Wailing now.
Because, Buhari messed up Nigeria - through bad governance and wickedness - Tinubu should do the same? You're one of the enemies of Nigerian progress .

It was between current VP Shettima and Gov Ibikunle Amosun. Go and listen to the tape again.

AustineE1:
Oh Tinubu has proven beyond any reasonable doubt that he is the premier of the south west region and the level of negligence and marginalization of the south east, from both Buhari and Tinubu is unprecedented and this president of a 'disgraced nation', want others to be patriotic inspite of his obvious tribalism and nepotism.May be we need a Trump to make a state on tribalism in Nigeria before they will sit up.It is obvious that APC as a party has an agenda against the south east,we listened to a leak tape then,allegedly between governor Amuson and a northern colleague on their plans against ndigbo and they denied it but it is now becoming clearer,no wonder Nnamdi Kanu is held incommunicado!
Re: South-West FEC Meeting: Salihu Yakasai Criticises Lopsided Projects Distribution by Justnation: 7:21am On Nov 08, 2025
This is exactly the true meaning of emilokan, awalokan.

South West alone 75%.
The rest of Nigeria is abandoned.

Yet 90% of the resources being used comes from the south East and South South.

Whoever voted for tinubu or intends to vote for him in 2027 is an enemy of Nigeria.
