Mama was talking to those on or under the poverty line

Indirectly, this means the advice is for APC supporters. Finally the government is admitting that those who supported and voted for them are living in perpetual poverty. APC Nairaland branch, please confirm this statement for us.

Aunty Remi shared expensive cars for the women leaders and she has advised the APC female and male supporters to tell their wives, mothers, sisters, aunties to go fry akara and sell puff puff and kuli kuli

Remi Tinubu’s “advice” that Nigerian women should go and fry akara, sell roasted corn, and hawk kulikuli to survive is not just tone-deaf, it is a disgusting display of elitist detachment from the hell millions of Nigerians are living in.

This is a woman whose family lives in obscene luxury, shielded by state resources, while the masses she lectures are drowning in inflation, unemployment, and hunger caused in part by the very policies her husband champions. Telling struggling families to “go and sell akara” as a serious economic solution is not wisdom, it is mockery. Akara and kulikuli cannot pay rent. They cannot buy school books. They cannot cover hospital bills in a country where one malaria episode can wipe out a month’s earnings.

This is the height of arrogance from a First Family that has turned Nigeria into a brutal emerging caste system: them at the top in private jets and bulletproof luxury, while the rest are expected to accept petty trading as their eternal destiny. And the worst part? The sycophants standing behind her, nodding vigorously like broken puppets, clapping for crumbs. Prosperity will judge all of you. Your own children will one day sell akara and roasted corn on the streets. Your daughters will hawk kulikuli under the sun while the children of the powerful study abroad and inherit empires.

This is not leadership. This is class warfare disguised as advice. The Tinubus are not building a country, they are entrenching a new feudal order where the poor must remain grateful for crumbs while the ruling class feasts. History will remember this moment as one of the most insulting utterances ever made by a First Lady to a suffering nation.

Fry Akara with LPG @ 1.6 USD per kg?

The First Lady of Nigeria, Oluremi Tinubu, has urged Nigerian youths to be hard-working, saying, “There is no food for lazy man.”

Mrs Tinubu said this during a courtesy visit to the palace of Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, in Ile-Ife, Osun State, on Thursday.

She noted that while the Tinubu-led administration is working hard to provide sustainable solutions to the current challenges facing the country, Nigerians should also work hard to provide for themselves.

The first lady maintained that the government will do all it takes to ensure that Nigerians are not disappointed and called for patience with Tinubu’s administration.

Mrs Tinubu said: “There is no food for the lazy man; even God worked for six days and rested on the seventh day.

“Nigeria is a land that’s flowing with milk and honey, but we need to sustain it for generations to come.

“God has richly blessed my family before getting to the presidency and we are content with what we have.

“What is happening in the country, we are just two years into our administration, we are not the cause of the current situation. We are trying to fix and secure the future.

“I have embarked on several journeys but it seems that people are not seeing what God is doing in the land. Nations across the globe want to do business with us, legally, on the table. There is a government in power now that they know it is accountable.

“We are trying all our efforts to ensure that the economy is stabilised and the masses are living meaningful lives since the removal of fuel subsidy.”

Oga Sukueku,have you pondered on whether the budget allocation can get to everybody.
Is it not proper that she gives the downtrodden whom the allocated budget would never flow down to.

Are akara sellers demons that some of you are disparaging them.
I have heard some akara sellers using this low level business to send their children to Universities.
Most people disparaging akara sellers because of politics should cover their faces with soiled clothes because they have erred.
The world is all about the rich,not rich and the downtrodden and these three levels are in all the nations of the world.
Should we only cater and talk about the first two and leave the third?

The Redeemed Christian Church of God has reacted to social media comments questioning its ordination of Senator Remi Tinubu as a pastor.

Quest Times understands this is coming after a video showing the Senator representing Lagos Central at the National Assembly talking about the ]b]Igbo and their alleged refusal to align with Lagos’ local politics[/b], resurfaced on social media.

According to the wife of the former governor of Lagos State, Bola Tinubu, the Igbo residing in the state “were proving difficult despite the love shown to them”.

“We will entreat all the deities of Lagos to chase Igbo people out. Igbo who didn’t marry Yoruba, we will inherit them. Given how much we love Igbo, you now want to spoil everything.

I am surprised people are overlooking something she said in that interview.

"So we've encouraged Nigerians as best as we could. What is within our hands, I have given, and I keep giving.

"I remember giving for TB. When I heard there were so many TB cases, I gave N2 billion. To breast cancer, I gave a billion. For food malnutrition, I gave half a billion."

I, we. They want to turn us to a charity case. What a shame. Before her husband's inauguration in May 2023, Remi Tinubu stated that her family did not require Nigeria's wealth to survive, emphasizing that they are already blessed. She pledged to use her position to guide the nation onto the correct path and promised that they would do the right thing with the country's resources.

For a former Senator not to know that there are specific institutions to do what she is talking about, I now forgive Aisha Buhari who channeled her frustration to the right quarters. Madam, there are budget allocations for these things. It means you are not on top of your game if you have to fund the country with your charity when there is a government. Shame again.

Putinofrussia:
So families that have been selling akara before I was born and those still selling till date,are not humans,ehn?
So every Nigerian should be selling cars.
Zombiesm of the highest order.
That woman advice was for those who have interest in selling akara or other small businesses in the same level.

Most people underated those business because they have degrees but not knowing that there are a lot of opportunities in those businesses called poverty line business.

Most of them have house of Thier own wether Mini flat or 2bed and eating well than a salary earners with 250k, 300k per month raising shoulders.

Nigeria's First Lady told unemployed, university-educated youths to go fry Akara on the street because "it is not difficult." Then, an APC chieftain said he is "filled with shame" because the youth got angry at this "honest advice." Honestly, I agree with him! It is a brilliant advice. In fact, let's start the implementation with the politicians' families.

Imagine a politician's son landing in Abuja straight from London with a first-class degree from Oxford. His dad hugs him at the airport, hands him an apron, a giant iron pot, and says:
"Welcome home, my boy! We have secured a prime spot for you next to the gutter on the highway. Go and fry akara for Nigeria's economic recovery!"

Because if street-corner frying is a dignified career path for Nigeria's future, surely it's good enough for the children of the elite! Why hide them in high-paying CBN and NNPC jobs? Give them the frying pans first! Let them lead by example!

Politicians love telling the public to "tighten their belts" while they are busy buying luxury SUVs and expanding their own waistlines. They crash the economy, destroy the power grid, and then wonder why you can't fry beans in the dark. Peace be for you

I separate a person's entire character from a single opinion. Disagreement on one point does not wipe out everything else. It is possible to analyze and use an idea without endorsing the person who said it.

This is something I have seen from the olodo uprising too. We were taught to disagree with ideas. I do not like what Mrs Tinubu said but if tomorrow, she says something that makes sense, I will take it. Tinubu made sense when he was in opposition, today I am holding him to his words.

If we only listen to people we 100% agree with, we will end up talking to nobody but ourselves.

Nice one.

Chiellini finished his legendary Italy national team career with a 66.67% success rate. Across his 117 total caps for the Azzurri, he walked away with 59 wins, 38 draws, and only 20 losses. In his final playing seasons in Major League Soccer (MLS) with Los Angeles FC, his single-game passing accuracy hit exactly 67% during a regular-season match on July 15, 2023.

Bonucci came on as a sub on July 11, 2021, during the UEFA Euro 2020 Final against England at Wembley Stadium. After England took an early lead, Bonucci scored the equalizing goal in the 67th minute by poking the ball in after a chaotic corner kick scramble. This 67th-minute strike made him the oldest player ever to score in a European Championship final (at 34 years and 71 days old)

Let me shock you. Bonucci finishing his professional club and international career with exactly 670 total official appearances (excluding friendlies). Across these 670 matches, the legendary ball- playing center-back scored 43 goals and provided 20 assists.
