Almost every single Nigerian is like that.

It's easy to open one's mouth to criticize, until you get there and meet things you never imagined.

Tinubu is facing this reality, and I dare say the most vocal opposition would be in the same shoes.

The loudest voices are typically without solutions.

[quote author=zoomzoom post=137665922][/quote]You people are weird.
You think it's that easy. Lol.
Why is he trying to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine after all the noise and even Russia breaking the ceasefire continuously?

Why has he not attacked SA for what he claims is white genocide?

Why has he not made military moves in Nigeria with all his noise since he started making it?

Like I said, a lot of you know nothing. You follow social media blindly without understanding how things work.

He's yet to do anything about countries beside him, and you think they'll be foolish enough to blindly send military presence into far away Nigeria? Lol.

When they are done yanking your chains, you'll wake up.

Decisions alone don’t earn trust — it’s timing, consistency, and impact that matter. When moves happen late or only after external pressure, it raises questions.

Citizens notice, and governance credibility is built quietly, not by reaction.

I don't agree. Tinubu right from day one focused on economy. Ask any apolitical person that is knowledgeable in economics and the person will tell you that Nigerian economy was in ICU when Tinubu took over. So much effort was needed to steady and turn things around.

I listen from beginning to the end during annual bankers conference and read from people that have no interest in politics but are core professionals, the general opinion is that;

Nigeria economy has stabilized
External shocks are minimized because oil now contributes very low to our GDP. Because of what was done the Trump tariff madness that is shaking the world economy has not affected Nigeria.
The economy has been positioned for growth that is sustainable. It's actually going to operate like a modern economy.
The turning point year is 2026.

Tinubu didn't give the same attention to security which is actually the foundation for growth. He equally inherited challenges in this sector that look intractable.

Haters and opposition having now seen that using price of rice and exchange rate to attack Tinubu will not work again because the dividends of his regime on the economy is beginning to show, they have shifted to security.

But trust Tinubu. All his focus now is on security. He will bring his usual attitude to it. Definitely he will get it right. Just watch.

I really dont think he waited, the government has always operated on less than 5% efficiency, that's the normal way the whole government works.thats why nigeria is were it is. FAILED. Even the current action except with international assistance will lead to nothing

Get rid of this slave mentality. After all the Trump shout, did he do anything? You people have zero idea how world politics works but you are always the loudest. The arrogance in your ignorance is just disheartening.

Keep lying to Ursef . He is the reason why Tinubu is taking many decisions now. Why did Tinubu send delegates to US if he doesn't fear US?

Lol... People are offering help and we sent delegates. How does that translate to fear.
Putin meeting Trump in Alaska also means Putin is afraid abi?
Una no just get sense for this site.

Like I said, take off those chains on your neck and learn to think independently without fear or validation of the white man. He's not coming to save you, he has his own problems he's still trying to overcome.

Lol... Of course, you start throwing aspersions when there's nothing reasonable to say anymore.

A "data boy" has ability to think more logically than you and you had to resort to name calling. Lol. Very daft human being.

I can't discuss with data boys because I know their brain is with Tinubu any wrong decision he makes they defend with their lives

Maybe it’s President Trumps “Body Language” ?

Or have we all forgotten how these same APC people touted Buhari’s body language and how it made beer to freeze in fridges nationwide? Hehehe

From this point forward, Nigeria leadership will be going for evaluation in the U. S.

Una go explain tire.

I pity those who think rigging next election will be easy.

See the last minister of defence, no employment experience in force was just a school lecturer, and asking him to lead defence efforts in a time like this.
Joke..

Tinubu locomotive and outdated style of leadership is the problem. A leadership anchored on politicking, palliative and patronage cannot move a country like Nigeria forward. Like Daniel Bwala rightly stated " Even If, Tinubu is given 30 years in office nothing will change". Tinubu can not give what he doesn't have. Only the Ronus have larger expectations from him, because in their twisted narrative, Tinubu built Lagos. A people who can manufacture a lie, believed and lived it as their truth is something that requires further academic research.
