This is why we should thank president Bola Tinubu for his bold reforms. Opposition parties are defecting in droves, prices of food and essential commodities are coming down. No more subsidy in nigeria and the economy is growing rapidly. May God bless president Bola Tinubu and give him strength to fulfill his renewed hope agenda. Amen

What bold reforms?
Can you say this to your kinsmen in that your underdeveloped village?
What prices of goods are coming down?
Who took them up before?
May your life and that of your unborn generations be run like Tinubu and APC has ran this country. If e sure for you, say amen.

Okoroawusa:
Please don't put Peter Obi and good reputation in the same sentence.

Is it Tinubu that is supposed to be put there?

Osiris12:
Japanese are too refined abeg

In my next life God, make me a Japanese . Far away fro helinues and cohorts which you will still make dem nigerians and a tinubu will rule over them

Amen o. Including yarimo and all his APC e-rat colleagues. Make them Nigerians in their next life with Buhari and Tinubu their presidents.

Arrest and prosecute Ekene Igwe and all the associates linked to him. Why lock up that whole market and extort them?

You will never see that APC riff raff Helinues on threads like this.

Look at the bucket of food you're eating.
Please don't cheat on your lovely wife sir. Asaba babes are not smiling. God protect my boyfriend living there.

Nigerian senate circus of jesters. Smh

If you don't intend to borrow the money, why do you need senate approval?

Reno is a certified APC e-rat full stop!

OP just set this girl up for dragging sha

helinues:
Please Obidients should explain to the Nigerians.

What was the Photoshop photo below for? To prove what precise points because I am yet to see the logic or the need for this.

Was Fmr Gov Kayode Fayemi in the pic also photoshopped too?

This country is a joke. Imagine organising a ceremonial event using tax payers money to "induct" a military helicopter bought with tax payers money for it to be ready to be put in use. Like they mean this helicopter can't be used in battle unless it is inducted? Lol
Like all US, UK, France and Russian military helicopters were all inducted after production before they started using them?
Shame of a country!
Just look that VP smiling as if they have done wonders already. I weep for this country.

zero8zero:
But people like you are spreading the Igbo victimhood on Twitter, even when it was explained that more candidates in Lagos were affected. It's always this victim complex.

People like me? What do you mean by that? Did you see me on twitter?
Meanwhile the issue of Igbo victimisation is true. It is only logical for one to see this as a calculated attempt to victimize a tribe when you look at how the Ronu group are defending JAMB's incompetence.
It is also very possible that Lagos was added to the list to create a smokescreen of their intentions.

It's not very difficult to spot a Ronu WhatsApp group topic on Nairaland these days. This thread is an unnecessary effort towards damage control. Whether or not this "glitch" was a targeted attempt to victimize the Igbos should not be through topic of discussion. The most important thing to look into is the remedial efforts to prevent future occurrences of things like this. We need true justice in this country.

This OP are you blind to the civilian massacre happening in your own country?
Why would you sell your conscience just to reduce yourself to an online defender of your oppressors?
Focus on the bad government in your country that has stolen your future and the future of your unborn kids.

Anoda report from the agbado WhatsApp group. It's now clearly evident that the French govt gave Tinubu this assignment in his last visit to France because, how can one explain this recent attack on Burkina Faso govt by agbado e-warriors, pundits and sell-pens.

NgeneUkwenu:
Comrade, lets leave Anambra State for him . Soludo has been our partner in stopping Gbajue from leaking his smelly mouth...

But Abia and Enugu, is either they join APC or we snatch the states from them. Igbos must connect to the center by force!

Have you no shame?
At this your age, this is what you chose to do for a living. You wake up every morning, bathe, dress up and pick you phone to come online to support systemic rot in your country. Check yourself well to know if you have any trace of perpetual curse in your life.

I must commend Seun for introducing this block button. It has brought back some sanity to this forum.
Ever since I blocked about 3 APC online bandits, posts displaying crass bigotry and stupidity has reduced. I also stopped seeing posts from their numerous BOTs as well. I am now convinced that these guys were truly employed to cause chaos, fan tribalism and cheer on the destruction of this country.
Thank you Seun.

SmartPolician:
You have no idea how powerful governors are, especially when they have good relationship with the Commissioner of Police and the GOC of the state's military barracks.

In short, elections can only be free and fair if the governor of a state wants it to be. Where he wants otherwise, he will mobilize security operatives and men to rewrite the results and nobody can do anything about it.

Dey play!!

Agbado election analyst. Enablers of rigging and corruption because it favours their tribesman.

North about to play Ranka dede politics on jagaban.

You are just wicked and foolish. What makes you think his unnecessary frequent travels doesn't affect governance.
And what has he gained from France with the already wasted 51 days after lavishing tax payers money?
The evil you support because of tribalism and crumbs will catch up with you one day!

LegendHero:
E no even plenty.

With all the noise, one go think say baba dey travel every day to France.

Jagaban should enjoy his life and do what he gat to do. So far it does not affect governance, we are good.

Godfullsam:
You guys should stop mentioning obi in any sensible conversation na.
This is not joke session pls.

Because the FG wants to emulate egypt in area of power generation, transmission and distribution does not mean they are copying obi.

So, if balablu decided to put on black attire for an event tomorrow, you people will say he is copying obi abi?

You are a big fool!
You will reap the rewards of your contribution in destroying this country. You and your unborn generations will not be spared.

Trouble go d sleep for this Christmas, yanga go come d tap am. Just negodi her face

EmperorCaesar:
Nigeria is a developing country for a reason

These things arent/cant be perfected under 20-30years and thats why the Govt keep bringing up innovative ideas to shore things up


USA gained independence in 1776, yet they still have slums all over. Nigeria is barely 70

Stay there and be saying "barely 70" until we reach 150 and still have nothing to show for it. How old is Ghana? How old is the UAE? How old South Africa?
Ronu APC bandit... Stay there and be defending backwardness and retardation

helinues:
Dumb gaslighting.

You will see other Yoruba's correcting Seyi on this thread. We don't support evil, we don't support disrespectful, we don't support arrogant and unmannered attitude.

Spade must be called what it is

Why are you not correcting your ronu band when they disrespect and slander Peter Obi?
Why is a spade not called a spade when your ronu hoodlums insult Peter Obi by calling him slanderous different names?
You clearly don't support disrespect only when it's about your Northern slave masters.
We are entering 2025 soon and you're getting older. Think about your future and that of your unborn kids in this Nigeria you have enabled her destroyers.

emkz:
The messianic toga coronated on Peter Obi became his albatross that ended up exposing him badly.

Among the three leading presidential candidate, Peter Obi was the least prepared. His buzzwords were: "new Nigeria", "consumption to production", "Nigeria is at the last stage of collapsing".

It was even disturbing that Peter Obi saw himself as the one to rescue Nigeria. He was not even prepared because he had no manifesto until he was forced to produce one by the crew of Arise News. This manifesto was released on December 4, 2022. Tinubu released his own manifesto around October 20, 2022. But one of Obi's henchmen claimed Tinubu copied Obi's manifesto.

If Obi presiding over Nigeria would have made Nigeria better, let's interrogate the following:

(1) Obi presided over Anambra for 8 years. Is Anambra under him as inspiration of what Nigeria should be? What specific policies did he propose to turn Anambra from consumption to production?

(2) How did he improve the IGR of Anambra?

(3) He had claimed Anambra came first in WAEC. Does anyone even understand what that means?

(4) Looking at his campaign expenses as released by his campaign treasurer, he spent more money on post election litigation than pre-election campaigns. He either did not believe he could win on the ballot and wanted to win through the courts, or he wanted to spend less and maximize benefits. He ended up wasting money as his calculation failed.

(5) He claimed to have bought 505 as a student. Yet, he struggled to explain to Arise News what he did for a living. He said they should ask others, that he was a distributor (not a manufacturer) and studied market to market at Harvard. What exactly was he distributing?

(6) His name was mentioned in Pandora papers. Why did he hide money in a tax haven?

(7) Through his utterances, he demarketed Nigeria. His entire campaign had no strategy. His spokesmen could not talk about anything apart from religion and attacking Tinubu. This was also an area Atiku failed. Tinubu was the only one who had a campaign slogan: "Renewed Hope" and that was his message.

Now, in terms of Nigeria being as it is. Many years ago, some elder statesmen warned that Nigeria penchant for wasting funds was us eating away our future. We subsidized dollars, which only benefitted the rich, subsidized fuel which many turned into a dangerous business by smuggling and even making claims when they didn't supply fuel, four refineries collapsed at once, gas was and is still being flared; we subsidized religious pilgrimage, and even killed our manufacturing sector. The only subsidy we enjoyed was education and healthcare.

It was in Nigeria they were defending the naira by subsidizing dollar sales. Defending the naira from what? Who benefitted? When we could no longer afford the mess we created, we started borrowing to pay subsidies, salaries and some states were bankrupt and could not meet salary obligations. Former President Buhari bailed out the states in 2015 and 2021. This was the reality.

Now they are asking what Nigeria did with the savings from subsidy. The fact is that the word "savings" is a misnomer. Nigeria simply stopped borrowing to fund a corrupt subsidy regime.

Just to conclude, there is no evidence beyond gaslighting that Nigeria would have been better off with Peter Onwuabasi Obi (POO) as president.

Reno Omokri I sight you. Number one hustler in this Tinubu regime. Have some shame please.

sparko1:
When they started you were clapping, when they kill policemen and soldiers in checkpoints you blame the officers and clap for UGM🙄🙄

But you want officers to protect lives and property because it's their job, you can't have it both ways, if you enjoy protection from iPod, don't expect it from officers, they have wives and children too.

When they started, the warning signs were there, officers try to kill them as much as possible but there were public outcries, people in the region kept asking why the high handedness, people were comparing iPod with OPC🙄🙄 enjoy your OPC and stop complaining.

You have to be conscious of how you use your pronouns Mr.
I have never forgotten once supported the killing of cops and the destabilisation of the South East by these UGM.
I am in total support of the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu because the Nigerian government has failed to successfully establish a case against him. Holding him in prison is a breach on his fundamental human right and an act of injustice against the Igbos.
Finally , I am in support of the arrest of Simon Ekpa. He has to answer for the violence and killings he sponsored and encouraged in the South East. If proven guilty by any court of competent jurisdiction, he should face the consequences of his actions.

ceejayluv:
But I wonder why Ekpa and kanu supporters are more vocal on social media - maybe joblessness. I always tell people that many Igbos don't support those fools but the noise online makes it seem like I'm living in denial.

Kanu supporters, I agree there are, but Ekpa supporters? I don't think he has any genuine support from the Igbos.

Judolisco:
If it was in the North that shekau ordered that they shouldn't come out on Mondays, and they obeyed him, we'll say it's illiteracy... How dis dude was able to pull dis thing off that even governors don't work in Mondays in d south east should be studied

A larger percentage of the people in South East Nigeria do not sit at home on Mondays in obedience to Simon Ekpa and his UGM goons but rather out of fear of losing their lives. They have lost confidence in the protection offered by the Nigerian security agencies.
To make matters worse, anybody who's business falls victim of UGM attack is usually not taken care of or compensated by the government. Nobody cares about the person. The government attitude is almost like the citizen is stylishly blamed for putting his/herself in harms way. The dead are not even mourned enough let alone securing justice for them.
Why would you come out of you know that your life don't even matter to the Nigerian government that is encouraging you to disregard the sit-at-home order?

rejoice4eva:
He has a right to his opinion. Did he pray? Yes. Was free fall of the naira abated ? Yes.
Could one dollar could have exchanged for 10000,? Very possible.
Stop abusing the man of God. He can hear what you don't hear , even from the source.

Olodo how was the free fall of naira abated when it fell from 460/$ to 1700/$?
Stop defending evil so that your life and that of our country Nigeria can get better.
