I only pity your unborn generation. By the time they realized their fore fathers supported this fraud of a govt, it would have been late. However, by the time u realized u were scammed, u will cry silently in your one room face-me-i -face house.
If some of you still have sense with u, u should know that in a scale of preference in solving hardship of an economy caused by the president, constructing highways should have been the last thing to come in his mind if he really cares to reduce poverty. But dilullards like u don't know that with massive hunger, the roads are not safe to drive on. Why is he still borrowing after removing subsidy if actually wants to ever construct super highways. Blind supporter
All this epistle just to sound incoherent?? Lol my children are well made, My unborn generation are already sorted as well. But I can't say the same for you. So in all sense I applaud PBAT for taking the bold steps to make your life less miserable, coz ppl like you dont appreciate good things, reason why you have such sense of reasoning.

We are on the same stance, All politicians in Nigeria are the same and I'm not campaigning for anybody.

But one thing i know for sure is that no party is going to beat APC and their 12 million members. The total sum of all the opposition's Party and their population is barely half of Tinubu's APC.

To win the presidential election, You've got to win with more grass root mobilization and APC already secured that.

Tinubu will secure not less than 15 million votes next year, I seriously doubt Peter Obi will secure up to 7 million votes if his grass root soldiers aren't up to 3 million.

Miracle nor fit happen next year. PO's loss has already been cemented. ‼️

And the bandits and terrorist should not be stopped by the Government? Is security not the Government primary objective? Why then did we surrender our sovereignty to the government?
bewla:
The only way to have light is in two form
1) the president has told you to generate light and sale to your community
Enugu state is on that already

When I was in bayelsa many years back they survived on tuban energy and there is light always

Some part of ogun have solar company sailing light to them at cheap rate they don't use Nepa again

Just ask Google to verify my saying

2) resource control
This the president is talking about seriously

What else more do you want

All this bandit and terrorist you are seen is do to mineral resources found in that area in large quantity

Stop listen and use your common God given sense to look beneath the main stream media

When government want to hide truth they look for bigger liars to fool us
To distract us from the main picture

What is the point of hating someone like you when you already hate yourself so badly that you can’t even own up to your ethnicity huh

Ọmọlúwàbí Yorùbás are not enslaved to the worst looter in Aso Rock. We have a better standard for reference.

Splashme:
The first civilian governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, on Tuesday, said that the cancellation of the Lagos metroline project in 1985 was a major mistake and disservice to many Nigerians.

Jakande spoke in Lagos during the launch of a book which chronicled his life in politics and journalism.

The book, entitled, ‘Jakande: Leadership in Action’ is written by Dr. Bola Olaosebikan, who told the audience at the event that the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), was not responsible for the cancellation of the project.

Jakande said, “Reflecting on the metroline project, I think it is a major disservice to many Nigerians. Imagine how many people would have benefitted. It would have made life easier and changed the face of transport in Lagos. Whoever cancelled it or gave the advice towards its cancellation didn’t do right.”

The former governor asked Nigerians not to vote for unserious leaders in the coming polls, saying the elections presented Nigerians with a good opportunity that should not be squandered.

Expressing the hope that Nigeria would soon overcome its developmental challenges, Jakande said hope would be actualised faster if credible people emerged as leaders in the next dispensation.

He said, “This book comes at a very auspicious time in Nigeria’s history as we need leaders who can act. We need leaders who would not compromise the standards of good governance. God has blessed this nation the most in Africa, although we have not reached where we should be; with the right leaders, Nigeria would overcome its challenges.”

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?

IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.

No miracle dey happen for nigeria

The downfall and misery is as predictable as the rising of the sun
God is not involved in Nigerian politics or democracy for that matter
So since God's not involved no one or nothing can stop tinubu from becoming president again in 2027

P.S only God can but as I said nothing concern God with our dirty politics
