Hahahaa, this is so funny. State govt that should be apologizing to citizens for lack of electriicty is charging them installation fee for alternative energy.
Time don reach Nigerians should start suing govt for failure to provide their social contract of which electricity is part of it. Shame no dey catch Nigeria at all. Someone was even defending it. Like u didnt provide citizens with electricity and u are charging them to get an alternative power, haaaaa.

When I tell u people that Nigeria has money, una go dey follow me argue. The problem of Nigeria is not more tax, the problem is that we waste money on politicians, corruption and influated prices of public projects.
Instead of investing in public services that can in return generate money, create enabling business enironment, etc. we waste it on corruption, funding the lifestyle of politicians, both past and present. These are the real issues, not more tax.
Take for example, the amount wasted on NNPC refinaries could fix electricity for good. if we had electricity fixed, even the fuel subsidy removal wont be harsh on Nigerians. We know these things, but they keep lying to u. Even if the tax is 70 percent, it will still mean nothing as long as these issues of corruption, wastage, influated price, lack of investing in public services, etc are still rampant.

Muyiwaipere:
See ungrateful people o.

You better thank God and manage your expenses....I see married men collect #120k as salary

Why do we compete for who suffer pass in Nigeria ? Is suffering a proud thing ?
Omo, naija politicians have used suffering bless us.
I wrote similar stuff where I said even 30m a year, U can't live the standard U lived 3 years ago. This administration messed up Nigeria.

numericalguy:
What exatly are you blabbing about?

Why are you scared of facts

You think you are campaigning for Obi but Not bold enough to come out

oga, I dont f#cking care about who rules this country. I just want to experience safety, period. Omo, you are a disgrace o. So, all u care about is ethic ruling? Damn! Omo, pray make bandits no remember ur family

numericalguy:
But na una dey wail every 4 years na

Can u see how f#olish the average Nigerians can be?
These politicians, be it Igbo, yoruba, etc, are all balling, it doesnt matter what tribe, their entitlments are paid in full. So, Igbo politicians, yoruba, hausa, etc all earn and ball.
The average Nigerian be it Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, is battling with expensive fuel, bandits, bad roads, expensive economy, house rent, gas, poor healthcare, education, etc. What is na una dey wait every 4 years? Can u see how myopic your mentality is?
This is the weapon the politicians have used to hold u all to ransom. Once u feel ur tribe person is president, u are okay even if u are suffering. Damn, now I know why whites colonized us, one sense eh, most black people dont have.
Northerners have ruled this country more than any region yet, they have suffered more than any region, all most all positive index, they are last in the country. When will people like u grow up, have sense and think?
I think 5 days with any of the kids of these politician, be it Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa, if u spend 5 days with their kids and see the type of life, the quality of life they live, if u already have a child, u will feel sorry for ur self because u cant give your child such life.
Hope u know that Wike's kids future for the next 500 years are secured, generation completely made. Wike is not Yoruba or Hausa, hope u know that the kids of all Igbo senators and house of rep members are all living your dream life, a life u cant produce for ur own kids. Wake up bro, have sense!

TimeMachine2:
They will always start what they cannot finish.

Okay, south west and north that knows politics, Re their people buying cheaper fuel ? Or they now have stable electricity? Or bandits have left them? Pls what is the benefit of knowing politics in Nigeria to the average Nigerian across all regions ?

Okoroawusa:
Before Igbos learn politics e go tey... aswear

Okay o, north and west that knows politics well, how far na? Kidnappers and bandits are using them to play football.
None of those who have learnt politics have used it to better the lives of their people. They still don't have water aside digging bore hole like the igbos. They still buy expensive fuel like Igbos, they still buy expensive gas, they aren't secured, their healthcare is wack. So what exactly is the benefit of learning naija politics ?

gigabyte13:
I repeat and l repeat
Nigeria cannot be islamized
Nigeria is too big for that nonsense
The Day they want to make it a law is the very day Nigeria will break patapata

They dont need to make it a law, they simply wage war. They are doing it already, kidnap young children and teach them radical islam. Young kids are the easiest prey. U dont understand? They are actually teaching those kids radical islam.
They also attach rural communities, slaughter people, they run and leave their lands, those radical Islamist occupy it as they are doing now. Over the years, those occupied communities become muslim communities. These are the strategies. Also, put fear in u, u run out of Nigeria, the more u run, the happier they are.

temmyyem:
A country that has abundance of natural and human resources, yet, the evil called govt/politicians made everything unaffordable while sponsoring the killing of the people.

May the Most High judgement locate this evil called govt and all the religious leaders

That is the problem, no most high to judge them, citizens are supposed to pass judgment to them instantly

I get banned automatically here for no reason once I submit a post.

autoez:
What we need now is a quick solution to all these mess. This one is obviously political so you better stop blaming anybody.

Civil war is gradually loading. Yoruba land will purge all them back to their heritage soon. If Yoruba land is shaking, Nigeria will not rest.

Why dont we just agree to go separate ways? No need for One Nigeria bro

ILoveNG:
You will hear the most insensitive statements like “voting has consequences”

Nah, that is not insensitive, that is core truth.
U can't take rice and vote rubbish and expect good result.
Opposition is even kind. Do U know what APC did when Chibok girls were kidnapped ?
Opposition is there to check the ruling party, portray their failure against them, period. APC did worse and I liked that style of opposition. It makes the ruling party performant. We are too relaxed here.

SSpeter:
When Malasiya kicked out Signapore from the union, the Singaporean leader cried, begged and lobbied. Singapore was a mere fishing village with no single natural resources. History has proved time after time that Human capability and development is the biggest economic resource a country can ever have.

Definately, most resource rich countries are even poor, most European nations dont have core natural resources. Thay have smart humans. Ur resource is useless if u dont have humans to harness and convert them into finished goods.
This is the sorry state of many african nations. Resource rich, but more foolish humans than smart ones. They simply sell of their resources to countries with no resources, these countries convert them into finished goods and sell back the finished goods to Nigeria and her likes .
Then we end up using the money we earned from selling these resources to purchase the finished goods. We even spend more, we end up with negative balance. They become richer, while we become poorer.

olarent:
Seconded,am from South West,you have said the solution,nothing can work in this contraction.

Lol, politcians know this but have refused to do it, except the people jointly demand for it. This will solve many problems. Infact, for me, South west would benefit a lot from this. South west already has lagos, it can make mad money from lagos alone. I honestly always wonder why South west is not in the front pushing for dissolution of Nigeria or at least, complete regional system of govt. South west willl honestly develop so fast than any other region in Nigeria. I dont know why they arent pushing for this. It is just so crazy.
I am Igbo but the region that will suffer the most if Nigeria split today within southern Nigeria is the south east. They may pickup later due to how hard working and smart their people are but the first 10 to 20 years would be brutal. But u see south west, they will start smiling instantly.

Nah,break up NIgeria is the right choice bro.
One Nigeria gives every ethnic group a command to allow any Nigerian to live there.
So, break up Nigeria so that these stuff will end.
Also, I expect this type of stories, fear politicians baba. U maybe surprised this story isnt true. The police could pick criminals up from cell and do this dirty business. Go and watch the Oval and see how bloody and dirty politics can be.
For me, I am supporting a split of Nigeria, it will save many lives.

Mattswaggz:
Nice one from Kenyans taking their destinies in their own hands and not allowing some so called leaders make decisions they aren't comfortable with unlike some certain west African country whose citizens have grown docile over the years.... imagine just waking up and setting up a facility to harbor victims of a dangerous virus where such cases weren't recorded and expecting the citizens to just accept it just like that.


Nonetheless, this one that they're preparing for a potential ebola outbreak maybe there is something going on that we don't know about and I just hope it won't be another COVID pro Max saga....that lockdown and other bizarre rules were unbearable not to think about ebola that have a way higher fatality rate compared to COVID.... should a massive outbreak occur COVID might just be child's play.

I have been saying this, without serious protest, no democracy can work. Especially african leaders, they so selfish. US might have given them small US dollars, small properties here and there and boom, they can sell out their entire country.
The day Africans start making life a hell for their leaders, things will never change. Also, why are these forien countries so wicked? Like why? Like why cant they just leave us alone.

ublight:
hmmmm.

In a sane clime, obi, atiku, tinubu, Jonathan etc will be in prison

I believe if APC has anything against Obi, they would have arrested him since. Elrufia is cooling in prison.
Infact, APC would have taken advantage of this since. Obi has been their biggest threats, reason they talk about him more than anyone else

helinues:
I really don't know if you guys think you are always smarter than others all the time or you are invincible.

People will be pointing out something obvious, glaring, but in your own wisdom, all what they are saying are nonsense.

You keep on repeating same obsolete methods for decades which never worked before yet still miraculously thinking it will make a difference in 2027.

Make una continue, you shall all sleep on the bed you have been laying

Omo, Tinubu supporters have issues o
Someone said your choices have consequences, how is that mockery?
Haaaaaaaa
When chibok girls were kidnapped, APC were everywhere on earth to use it to campaign. I honestly dont get it, you all protested, heavily protested, were on every media houses, were even abroad holding placards, was that mockery or stating the fact?

mascot87:
That is still none of your business dude

U too mumu shaa
With the way una cry over Igbos, one would have thought they are ur number one enemy
It is funny how u people dont scream up and down about fulanis but you create noise about igbos everywhere. I read your first comment, u said Yorubas dont cause nuisance? Hahaahhhahahaahahahaa, visit Tiwtter baba. One thing that makes me laugh about you people is the silence on fulanis and loudness on the Igbos who dont even pose a threat to you people

PulaPower:
He has always been a tribal bigot. I’m sure if the kids in this context are Ibo kids, he wouldn’t reacted this way. Nothing surprising here. Nah their way..

If you wanna call our government, call out government… But why mocking innocent kids?

Wait o, someone showed U consequences of your choices, he is now a bad person ?
When APC used chibok girls to campaign, they were not bad? Omo Una funny for this country.

Validated:
Stop crying, Kano gone, Oyo gone, SS gone, SE, gone, NC gone, NW gone, NE gone, Lagos in comatose.
Where will Tinubu get 15% popular votes

Seems u dont know that elections elections are r#gged o. Baba, except they are ready to play dirty like them, they will win o.

Can you explain what you mean by no integrity? Did he deny the problem? No, GEJ did. Is he working on the problem? Yes. Below is TODAY’S testimony by the American army.

The U.S. brings unique capabilities that no one else can provide. In collaboration with the Armed Forces of Nigeria, degrading ISIS’s ability to plan and carry out activities is a testament of our lethality, patience, and skill.#Counterterrorism #AFRICOM #Nigeria pic.twitter.com/fNQFpRvGPe

hahahaaha, una dey try o! Oga, not everyon is brain dead. He had one job, ensure such never happened again. But he is competing with the same man he protested against.

FSBoperator:
Has anyone called you guys out for supporting that fraud Giringori?

Why is it that obidients can not just respect the choices of others and instead of promoting their candidate, they will be attacking those who don't subscribe to their fake Messiah?

She raised valid point. Kids are getting kidnapped. How will u feel if ur 2 years old is inside the forest? Una well so?
What did u guys do when Chibok girls were kidnapped? APC carried placards and protested for years, even went to the US. Called GEJ names. So, how come if same is done to u people now, una go dey para?
To me sef, the opposition is dulling on this. They could have used this as a serious means to protest and wreck the name of this administration

Lithiumite:
How much is she earning now compared to before or she is now irelevant in her industry to attract value......the currency has been adjusted to show real value but all these empty heads expect everything to be normal after that......smart people knew it wasn't going to be easy and already prepared themselves but dumb ones keep crying at the inevitable.

Do u have a child? Like a toddler?
Some of u are wicked, maybe i cant tell why.
Bro, Nigeria is in ruines. Buhari and Tinibu are calamities combined.
Hope u will say this thing if ur kid goes to school and gets kidnapped by these blood sucking bandits? Hope u will write this same thing?
Some of u are heartless because u are yet a victim.

Slippy:
No one made money off black Africa like the Lebanese

Well, they saw opportunities where we sat and loot away everything. They simply come here with small capital and invest money and boom. Ordinary football league, local league we cant develop. If tomorrow, some group of people from another race decides to save our ass, we will sing another song.
Till date, we dont have a professionally run channels, South africa came and saved us

lawani:
Which state are you from? Are you a Nigerian? In your state how many individuals have income of 30 million per annum? If your state is five million population there can not be 100k people probably much less earning that much as individuals. Not household income but individual income.

No civil servant can earn that much from salaries and a business man earning that much has a business worth hundreds of millions of naira not goods taken on credit o

What you said is just funny. How does that change the reality? Everyone knows that most in Nigeria are poor.
The question is 30m cant give u such standard of living now which wasnt the case before. that is the essence of this post.

ogascomax:
Cho cho cho won't work here. The article never included tax you just imported that in. How much is inverter that you can't do with such income. Like I said just say you want to live a life of luxury. They are places in Nigeria good places that you can take family and children to. Must you travel to Europe for a vacation. They are African countries you can go on vacation. It's all about planning and you cannot be travelling up and down.
If you compare by administration you can say inflation now is high but that does not mean that it has eating so much that you cannot be comfortable.
More than 75 percent of Nigerians don't have that amount yearly and that is what you are seeing as a small amount.
I hail you.

Baba, the problem with most black people is poor reading:
Also, politicians have made u believe u must suffer, manage life until u die
How much is inverter? Hahaha, bro, to get inverter to power at least two AC, such setup will cost u more than 10m. Your present spent 15b on solar setup. As usual, una go resort to manage life.
Read the article again, the article is talking about the reality of the current economy. It says, with 30m per year before, u can live a very comfortable luxury life, high standard of living.
But not anymore. U cant achieve such standard in today's economy. That is the point of the article.
Carry a wife, a husband and maybe two kids fly go to vacation to South Africa here, or morocco, and see if u wont burn more than 7m
Like I said, to live a high standard of life with such income now, u will struggle, unlike before, u wont struggle. That is the point.
And the fact that more than 70 percent of Nigerians dont see such money shows that naija is a very poor country, does not dismiss the fact of the notion.
