We aren't campaigning for Bubu 2019.

Bubu will lose the entire SE n SS in the next elections.

It seems you are lost in Lagos propaganda.

The Igbo elites are with Buhari while the Igbo people are with Biafra.

On that day, the people won't vote making it easy for the politicians to rig the election

My idea has always been simple open and specific taxing system... What do I mean ..we need money to fix nigeria and we are not a rich country our revenue is small compared to our need... So we need to tax Nigerians and Nigerians are ready to pay trust me

We have 11.7 million cars in Nigeria and an average car owner spends 500k 4 year on car maintenance and we know it would drop by 80% if we have good roads are fixed

Imagine if we taxed all car owner an average of 100k and that would be 1.17 trn on road alone

States where this cars is get 65% federal government get 35%
This would settle our roads infrastructure

I have similar ideas for other sectors

Taxation is the worst way to raise revenue to finance a government programs.

I want you to visit Visualpolitik, Caspianreport and PragueU= Prague University in order to see how other parts of the world achieved increased revenue without focusing so much on taxation.

It is a shame that the FG States LGAs and Council Areas don't have international businesses that rakes in money for them.

It is shameful that we don't encourage Community and Ethnic Unions to take up the challenge in helping out in terms of infrastructural development.

Have you heard about Basque Nevara and Catalonia of Spain.? The richest regions of Spain despite Spain being as disorganized as Nigeria in terms of mentality.

So visit Visualpolitik, Caspianreport and PragueU for more information

nope.. Laws of economics work everywhere.

Purchasing power goes hand in hand with currency power.
If you reduce the power of your currency, expect inflation, especially in import dependent economy..
And imported goods actually dictates the price of local goods.


E.g
in 2013 when naira was 150-180, the price of rice was around 8k
In 2016-17 when dollar was around 500 -560. Price of rice was around 18-20k
Now that the price of dollar is 360 price of rice is around 13k.

Did you see the correlation?


Make naira powerful again and watch price of things go down due yo competition.

Let me test your level of economics through this question below

How do you make Naira powerful again without depleting the foreign reserves.?

Bros stop deceiving yourself, 100k minimum wage is very very possible. Let’s first cut frivolous spendings and you see say change go even Dey... you know how much this guys milk Nigeria’s economy by the day?

Based on our revenue, it is not possible.

Answer these questions in order to know if you are right or wrong.

1) How many government workers do we have.?

2) How much do we spend on salaries at LGA, State & FG levels.

3) What is our total revenue for the year.?

4) What is our yearly revenue and expenses.?

5) How much do we have left after deducting our expenses from our total revenue.?

How many percentage of working class people do we have in Nigeria? Cut out executives expenditure on food and other irrelevant things, bring down the salaries of demerits and ministers, head of parastatals by 45%, block all loop-holes for corrupt politicians, my bro Nigeria would afford it with left overs.
Our president private jet stayed in Britain for 3month with evil and uncounted for spendings.
Presently the Labour group is fighting for minimum wage to be at 54,000,it can also stay at 100k.
2/3 of Nigeria’s workers work in private entities who caters for their salaries.
How many public workes do the government have to cater for in terms of salaries. Is there even Job to justify that this money won’t be enough.. bros government would pay this money and still pocket change

Nigeria needs to build up her Revenue as her population grows.

This can be quickly achieved through Restructuring and international investments.

The issue is that economics is dynamic and flexible enough to achieve various objectives.
If the statement by Sowore of increasing minimum wage to 100k, is true so what, has he stated he will leave the tax base the same, or has he also stated he would not implement full deregulation of the downstream sector, or should government keep on subsiding Petrol, will NEPA tariff remain the same or should we continue subsiding that also?
We say the airlines are dying because of low patronage, is it the present minimum wage that will encourage people to choose air transport over land as the safest means of traveling.
There are so many services that Nigerians are enjoying that they are not paying for!
The inflationary aspects can be properly managed,never limit the capacity of brilliant minds to deliver results against all odds.

Watch those videos so that you don't become another hopeless & useless Fashola / Ambode.


There are better ways to raise revenues without emphazing so much on taxation.

Watch so that you can learn since you desire to be a leader someday.

You are discussing with a distant relative of 2 top elites that achieved the greatest economic development in the history of the Igbo nation.

A mis step.

Take over Lagos State from Tinubu First

Do your magic and gun for Presidency after.

I dont know what is wrong with him and Fela Durotoye.

Come together as a force and take over south west.

Take over all the states in South West and relegate the M0r0ns in charge.


Let us shock all these idiots that think the world revolve around their pockets and their generation.

no one wants to pay taxes
no one


We have 11.7 million cars in Nigeria and an average car owner spends 500k
stop dreaming
taxis and danfos and most car owners do not spend 500k a year
less than 1% spend this kind of money

4 year on car maintenance and we know it would drop by 80% if we have good roads are fixed
more roads
more driving
more fuel



Imagine if we taxed all car owner an average of 100k and that would be 1.17 trn on road alone

States where this cars is get 65% federal government get 35%
how would you change federal law as president?or you think north will llow you to change revenue allocation formula?


This would settle our roads infrastructure

I have similar ideas for other sectors
ps civil servants and legislators will loot it all

I already found Sowore’s campaign difficult to take seriously because of his lack of specifics, but now that he’s come out with such outlandish promises, I now have no doubt that Sowore brings nothing new and worthwhile to the table. He clearly lacks the first notion about economics, and he isn’t even aware enough of how little he knows to seek out experts who can help formulate sensible proposals; in what way is he then any better than the hopeless Buhari?

I was in Lag when he was Student Union leader and his time was riddled with corruption.

He also waged a war against cult boys which led to his being attacked and hospitalised. There were retaliatory attacks by the student union where they mobilised students to go to homes of cult boys and trash it
