Are they the only people in Nigeria out of 200 million? Must the same set of people who have been talking and protesting since their youthful days keep being the one to talk for you forever while you sit in your house watching tv?

Those men reserve the right to talk when they feel like and also have the right to 'get tired of talking' for lazy youths who would rather sit at home and watch bbnaija.
Lol.. you are a quarter smart.. so they have lost their voices suddenly?

By your argument you are implying that, the government should go on doing whatever they want while we go on protesting thereby going in circles.
Govt will always do whatever it likes, but that's why there's something called 'opposition' to protest and checkmate the excesses. That's standard practice all over the world. But what's the opposition doing in Nigeria today? Instead of targetting anger at a docile useless opposition today, we bizarrely seem more interested in throwing jabs at people who protested in 2012.

Okay keep waiting for them and wailing. They are the source of your problem and your only saviours. No wonder you cant get them off your lips.

Do you know why people are throwing jabs at people who protested in 2012?it is because they are the same people who are executing the same thing they once protested against. We can't just throw in protests for the sake of it. It doesn't make sense really.

Did you Mabea support the sudden fuel price hike in January 1st 2012?

I always laugh whenever people single out apc chieftains claiming they were the only ones who made up the millions who protested the pump price hike in 2012. Even Flavour who within 7 days released a song during that 2012 protest, I'm sure Flavour today would also be claiming the protests were done by APC. We have a special strain of amnesia in Nigeria.

Oh I see. Yours is all about the APC. There's nothing wrong calling them out. They are the leaders for crying out loud. Who do you rather blame? The APC who protested and is now in leadership or the masses who were misled?

Sincerely I supported the subsidy removal at the time. We have a more challenging situation now than we had then.

Lol... What a lame attempt at trying to make his crying soul feel better. You (not me) have been the one wailing over pump price increase and looking for who to antagonise for your woes. Where I live, I buy fuel for over N600/litre (when converted to Naira) and the price fluctuates in line with global crude prices.

Unlike your educated-illiterate school fees wasting self who feels Tinubu or PMB are responsible for pump price increase, I understand the elementary dynamics of global crude prices, and how it affects the pricing of petroleum products; I also understand the concept of subsidies and their merits and demerits in Nigeria's economic landscape. Go and educate yourself!

That's why he is not a leaders.

Mass protest doesn't decide the democratic decision of a leaders, it might influence the decision but a true leader with honest conviction would have convince Nigeria that removing oil subsidies and investing in fixing the four oil refineries would have been the best way forward.

He should have accelerated a programme for fixing the oil refineries and gradual reducing the oil subsidies, instead oil subsidies increased under GEJ wiping out the FX reserves left by OBJ government.

GEJ kept the oil subsidies for the best part of four years after the mass protest and did nothing absolutely nothing regarding the four non-fuctional refineries...because of GEJ incompetence, we now have a tribalist Buhari in power that is as bad and even worst than GEJ.
Well said

Once upon a time, during the GEJ era, Nigerians abroad were envious of Nigerians at home because the economy was experiencing a boom. Some regretted traveling as some of their mates at home were doing better than them. But now, the reverse is the case, those abroad thank their God for fleeing Nigeria early. They have practically written Nigeria off, save for their parents and siblings. I believe, as the world goes round, we will experience such a boom again before our time is up. I am not leaving my country for anywhere, I can only visit. We will get there. I have no regrets, even in recession, we continue to shine. Play on Nigeria.
I doubt Nigeria were ever thinking Nigeria was a good place to return to under GEJ, it under GEJ that Nigerian started travelling en mass to Europe via Libya.

GEJ did nothing to suggest that the country was on the right track of development, was there electricity , good roads or security? Just because Buhari is useless, doesn't mean GEJ was any better.

Paul Idu, you supported GMB against GEG, man up & use your previous account and apologize for your miopic decision. All this noise doesn’t lead anywhere.

You supported the Ojota protest then at least, use your real account and not creating new account to cloud your shame and hypocrisy.Also man up and tell GEJ that he is a weakling and unfit to govern a country in 21st century if he can allow media cry to influence his decision.

He is an idiot that allowed himself to be bullied with his enormous power despite the overwhelming supports he had among Nigerians.His weak attitude and disposition got us where we are today.
sad Sorry bro! I'm not who you think I am.Whosoever that zombies is will continue to regret his decision.
