Really wish I had more than 1 vote to make this man president in the best intrest of this country.

When this man said Nigeria can pay 100,000 naira without any issues if the gov is determined to pay, even young nigerias that should have the ability to think out of the box also said no and were part of the people shouting 2023 /next level/ Atikulated up and down.

I think people really are used to poverty/ backward way of thinking in nigeria so much that thinking the right way is far from alot of the citizens, because if not so why on earth will a set of people taking 13mill a month say they cant pay workers 30k and still some people are calm and want such people to rule forever.

It's really so painfull to see how divided nigerians are to the point of not thinking right.

Dont mean to be insulting but frankly any nigerian citizen of today that still wants any thing to do with PDP or APC really needs to be checked into a clinic.

We have a huge problem in our hands as a country and I just Pray things dont exploed in our hands at this rate.

Sowore speaks the truth all the time and other developed countries have proved him right on many occassion.
From minimum wage, to the cannabis issue to education/transport and others.

I urge any one who is yet to listen to him to go and watch all of his town hall meetings and others places where he has spoken about the country. Please leave religion or ethnic background aside and age, Just listen to him and do your own assesment based on what he says with respect to the so called developed nations we want nigeria to be like and you decide.

In one of sowores recent statements, he said never in this history of this nation have we had our military reaching out to the civilians to come to their aid after the attack from Boko Haram.

If this is still not a wake up call to some people that Nigeria is heading down a dangerous path, I dont know what will make people wake up and think.

Nigeria is ranked the poverty capital of the world, 13millions kids are out of school and the once in school are on stike, and the once out of school are jobless and the once with jobs are begging for 30k minimum wage and the list goes on. And people still think all is well and we can gamble another 4 year.

So the Gov. of Kano I read gave 10mill to EFCC to help in fighting corruption or so, ARE WE NOT A JOKE AND THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE WORLD in a normal country that man should be in Jail and till today Mr Integrity (Uncle B) has not spoken 1 word about him all in the name of the 5million security vote from Kano.

I can only pray that more nigerians wake up and do the right thing.

We really dont have any thing to loose that we have not lost already as a country if we give AAC/ Sorowe 4 years and lets see if how he will lead.

From the way I have seen him do things I personally have no doubt he will be a better leader and one all Nigerians will be proud to have as a President.


Just my 1 kobo speech

Princedapace:


bros, they have some world class hospitals in SA. Every country has its own slums. SA is included. The most important aspect of any economy is what an average citizen can afford.

In SA, an average citizen can afford a decent life style.

If u have money for world class hospitals, u can get them in SA too.

efighter:


Why didn't your lord and saviour Goatluck Jonathieve increase the minimum wage to 200,000 naira when the idiot was there? Can you see that you are more dull than your ancestors?

Princedapace:


So, all American citizens are hoes abi?

bros, I travel to SA wella.

Any decent economy has high cost of living


Citizens can easily afford it.

I can easily make 100 dollars in SA than making 33k naira in Nigeria.

Fitbillionaire:

dude i dont wanna go back and forth. anyone can easily make 100$ in sa than make 33k in nigeria. my points where clearly stated. how much is the house rent in sa. how much is the light bill in sa. how much is the nrmal food you bumind you u pay for parking too. when it comes to take home pay, what a sensibe person should talk about is the value. by value, i mean what the socalled 100$ can purchase in sa or us and what the same 100$ can purchase in naija. years ago when i was in france, i made 150 euros daily, yes converting that to naija money, it made so much sense, but when i feed, buy clothes, pay rent, Bleep hoes, pay bills etc etc, that 150euros became valueless. bro if anyone can comfortably make 10k in naija daily, u are better than any idiot that make 100$ which is 33k or more in us, europe or sa.

Princedapace:


Did anyone force us not to grow? Did anyone force us to born kids anyhow? Shebi one region dey use population dey win election..

Una never hear am for naija. Naija will explode one day and the poor masses will pay with their lives while the elites fly out of the country. Make una dey defend the useless leaders.

yinchar:
Nigerians will never understand the dynamics of things...

Firstly to start with South Africa has an efficient Tax Revenue System, the minimum Tax is 25% flat, coupled with 15% VAT.

Everybody has a Tax number and the Tax on your salary or payment is automatically removed from the source, meaning you can't escape it.

Imagine earning N100,000 per mount and the government Tax Revenue service automatically removes N25,000.

Can that be possible in Nigeria without rioting?....And everything you buying is subjected to 15% VAT. Last time I checked VAT in Nigeria is still a miserable 5%, tax on salaries is 1-2%, one of the lowest in the world. And, yet we still want to government to be able to pay salaries with good infrastructures. Also, fuel is N145/Litre in Nigeria and almost N450/Litre in South Africa.

Let's stop comparing apples with mangos.

Food for thought.

Adiwana:


Tax in Nigeria is not 2%.My mum works with one of the federal govt hospitals and pays over 10% tax.So wtf with the sitting down and conjuring Stats that you feel is what your mind tells you.I have access to her payslip so don't think am simply blabbing.Its facts

ogtavia:
Do you know in 2014, our GDP was nearly $600bn but has fallen to about $375bn now. Nearly half. Yes, we can make excuses like recession, our population is almost 4 times the population of south Africa. But let us face facts, india has a population of 1.3bn people with a PCI of $7000 which is understandable while Nigeria with a population of nearly 200million has a PCI of $5000. It goes to say that, human resources can be an asset to a nation's wealth index. Bill Gates advised Nigeria's leaders to invest in human capital development but people who know nothing about business or the modern world came out to defend mediocrity.

ifyboy60:


u re just making poor excuses

so in the above families who deserve higher pay?

Ihaveleftnaija:



Bro I understand this, we are also responsible for the rot .I was not blaming the leaders only , but let's be fair they are setting a bad example for the followers. The same South Africa you are talking about, a leader who is receiving bad press because of poor performance or scandals doesn't wait to be fired, they readily resign , do Nigerian leaders do that? . I know we have myopic people who would defend this people because of tribe , those are the idiots I wish death upon. I don't care for buhari, Jonathan or Atiku, they are all useless to this country.

GavelSlam:


There is nothing like deserving.

You can continue to breed kids whilst being unproductive.

baliyubla:
See the dullard being reluctant to increase minimum wage from ordinary $50 (18k) to $83 (30k), While South Africa that is already on a whooping $270 (97, 495) minimum wage, went on to increase it to $350 (126, 480) without any farce.

The irony is the South African politicians can't hold a candle to what the Nigerian politicians earn.

Giant of Africa my black ny..h. The recessionist must be stopped at the polls. Nigerians deserve better.

BluntBoy:


And workers were happy, weren't they?

So, why call Buhari useless?

If you earn salaries, you will know that there is significant difference between 18,000 naira and 30, 000 naira.

Opposition is not madness. Praise the government when they do something worthy.

obonujoker:
How exactly is Nigeria the giant of Africa??.

Jiang:


To some extent you right, salaries & allowance of political office holders in Nigeria needs to be slashed by 80% & minimum wage increased to 38k, considering the cost of living in Nigeria.

Increasing ours to 100k may cause inflation as cost of living in South Africa is way higher than Nigeria

Toseenlove:


No truer words can be said than this, You really understand what is going on in this nation.

Adiwana:


Shut the fvck up you dimwit.You gave out a false information that I quickly called your bullshit on.And where did I make any mention about every other thing you said??I know when to talk and when not to.I don't know anything about SA's economy and am not wallowing in my ignorance to go lift off 'facts' on the internet to sound educated or something.Who knows whether anything you even said up there is true but if you are not on govt payroll or know anybody that is on one,please don't go exposing your ignorant ass all over the internet claiming workers pay only 2% of tax.Pinche pendejo

the average nig worker works long hours and with intensity. I know coz am one of them.

the workman deserves his wages, so the Holy Bible says.

What does the bible have to do with the fact that you produce nothing?

But sadly, it is hard to make 10k daily in Naija. That is the point.

The ease of making the money is the issue.

Ihaveleftnaija:
And some idiot will come online and ask why South Africans don't travel out as much as other Africans for hustling ...here is your answer. What the hell will they be looking for outside of South Africa when they are paid good money at home, have access to piped water and 24hrs of power even in villages . We travel out of desparation just to get half of what they enjoy because our wicked leaders can't copy anything good , just evil deeds. South African kids from primary to secondary get two nutritious meals everyday not beans and water . The worst part is that South African politicians earn a quarter of what our own get. Nigeria looks cursed I swear .

Rextizzle:
Nigeria is cursed, it's better we start accepting it.
