Burob:
Charity they say begins @ home, u personally, if u are any better than the old men & women that u mentioned, can u please tell us how much foreign direct investment you attracted for yourself, or business in the last one year?

Over 25k USD baba, I am a fullstack developer and earn $$.
I am not responsible to Nigeria. Nigerian politicians are the people we should hold becus they actually do nothing but are super taken care of by the country's sweat. Like, as we dey hustle for fuel, tjey get free fuel. They are over taken care of. It is their duty to bring in FDI, not me who earns nothing from Nigeria. And by the way, I personally attracted over 25k USD into my busiensss.

edgecution:
That Egypt FDI is mainly from USA to be able to control them. America gives Egypt Billions of dollars every year as assistance and aid. Those are the agreement signed with them since 1946. Without America Egypt will not be a NATION. You can google it. Nigeria did not sign those agreements with USA.

Nigeria also gets huge AIds from US and EA. Oga, go check Egypt abeg, forget talk, why is Ghana ahead of us too? Morocco is hosting worldcup, SA is ahead of us. So, what is ur excuse? Naija is ran by useless old men and women who do nothing but look the country dry, sink in tribalism and waste public fund.

owobokiri:
The irony here is that Nigeria most probably budgets and spends more cash looking for FDIs globally than all the rest put together... The huge entourage, the fat estacodes, the endless globetrotting...

No business ran the way these platoon of kleptomanaics run Nigeria will not go into bankruptcy. How can you spend nearly 80% of your total earnings on recurrent expenditures as act like everything is ok upstairs

That is why they want to tax our lives out to pay for their incompetency. These men waste money like sey money na water. They havent fixed these issues and they want to tax my foriegn sourced income up to 25 percent yet without providing basic stuff

Host78:
I'm guessing I'm also the reason why your life is fvked up

Ur life cant even compete with mine because I am librated and I dont accept bullying. Major reason I run my own stuff and dont work under anyone. I am fearless. Them never born DVC well to speak to me that way. Insult me, I will insult back, hit me, I will hit u harder.

Host78:
E go hard for situations to put me where I'll argue with the DVC o.

I understand it's the new rave to be rude, mannerless and to challenge everything rudely.

But some battles are better won by stooping. It's also wisdom to know when to keep quiet.

I think a lot of people have lost this wisdom.

Regardless of how things turn out, as a young man, if things start getting out of hand, keep quiet and observe.

You can't win certain fights. And even if you win, the victory won't be worth it or as much as you thought it'll.

Your response is the reason politicians milk us dry. Like WTF is wrong with black Nigerians? Them swear for us to allow our oppressors go free?

I am not fighting for Nigeria. If una start war, make una fight the war. I am not patriotic. Nigeria has offered me nothing but darkness. I will never ever fight for Nigeria. Una better go and beg becus u guys violated their airspace, they have every right to do whatever they like

dederocs:
Try to be objective, sound like someone with some intelligence... allocations are shared to governors and they make IGR, so you mean they can't raise resources to secure their tribesmen?

This federal structure expects governors to be able to protect their people in collaboration with federal forces of course...till now no governor is taking the initiative to better arm their state security services. Keep being an advocate for corrupt people.

Allow states manage their resources, dont share any fucking thing. That is how it is done in true federalism. States are closer to the people. There is no need for Abuja to be super rich while states are poor. This is why Nigeria is wack till date, u all practising useless system of govt not found anywhere else in the world. Over centralized system in such a diversed country will never lead to development. This is why ur country is messed up till date.

dederocs:
Governors arm your hunters and employ more forests guards,stop waiting for president.

Tell president to hands up the resource of states. Allow states to mine their own resources, then.

YesDaddyTill203:
The US can't tell any country or region which laws to implement.

The Christian fanatics in the US congress are nothing but jokers. The same clowns don't even care about crimes in their districs such as Cancun Ted that goes on vacation while Texas was experiencing a disaster.

The people of Southenrn Nigeria wants the law abolished. Or northerners can be in their own country and run it. Just break up, that is it. So U can run Afghanistan style govt in the north.

helinues:
As usual online ranting. As if they have PVC

Abaribe, Ipob Senator has been voting in favour of policies against Ipob, secessionists yet he's almost 2 decades old as a senator

Did U read what they said? If the vote truly counts. Votes are not bought in Nigeria and elections are rigged.
Let's not pretend.

dragunov:
So if Tinubu wants to do anything in Burkina Faso, it's 11 unarmed military officers and a cargo plane that he will send. People!! Use this brain naah!!

Look at u. U are the one that should be using ur brain. U dont know that intelligence gathering is more critical than any weapon. Any one can be used to get vital information.
Also, it doesnt matter what u want to do, u entered their airspace uninvited, na u looked for their trouble. They have right to do anything they like to u for entering their space uninvited and without permission. I cant enter ur house without ur permission.

mactoni91:
Tinubu’s decision to involve Nigeria in the Benin Republic conflict was a serious miscalculation.

Many African countries have been waiting for even the slightest opportunity to challenge or demystify Nigeria’s position as the so-called “Giant of Africa.” At a time when our internal security architecture is already overstretched, sending troops across the border was unnecessary and ill-timed.

What Tinubu should have focused on was strengthening our military from within, especially by decisively dismantling the Islamic terrorist networks that have for years made our armed forces appear weakened and overwhelmed. That internal threat alone has done more damage to Nigeria’s military credibility than any external force.

People will be shocked to know the kind of sophisticated weapons some smaller African nations have acquired. Many of them are quietly backed by major global powers and are more prepared for confrontation than we assume. In a direct face-off, several of these countries can match Nigeria pound for pound, something our leadership seems to ignore.

This entire episode should serve as an eye-opener.

Instead of dragging Nigeria into avoidable regional conflicts, our leaders should be rebuilding and modernizing our military defenses, not creating opportunities for political actors to siphon funds or strategize on election rigging.

Truth is, we have never had it this bad in Nigeria.

Na France asked him to send the troops o and he must obey

No

Kalashnikov49:
My take:


Who sent the plane to Burkina Faso.
A C130 is a Transport plane. What was the essence of the trip.? What equipment was it carrying?
Portugal has refuted the lie of the Army claiming they were coming for a visit.


The fact that the Army came and told lies means explicitly that the SECURITY apparatus of the country is totally compromised.

Burkina Faso is a member of West African Nations that are against ECOWAS and have already threatened to bring down any rescue JET that is foreign to their airspace.

Will they now use propaganda to cover this obvious void in the chain of command in the armed forces?

Burkina Faso is totally ready for anything.

Now it's obvious that FRANCE has the ballz of TINUBU in their hands.

Anything France says, TINUBU does.

Awon Sophisticated strategist....come and talk.

Nonsense.

I have been saying this since. Any smart person should know this. Before the final court judgement of the last election, Tinubu visited France a lot of times. No body knows what he was doing there. France got his balls.

Pls this is long road network, and not best roads. Nigeria is large and should be topping the list.
Why didn't you publish the list that showed best roads in Africa ? The top list, Nigeria was not there. Namibia topped the list once again. That is what we should be interested in. Best quality road in Africa.

Go and read it..

iwaeda:
There is no need for emergency, all these leaders should purge themselves. Most of them want to perpetuate themselves in power till death. Benin just change from 5 to 7 years. Alhassan Quatara is doing 4th term rather than 2. Most of the assemblies are puppets and rubber stamps. People are getting tired. There will be more coups, unless good governance.

Honestly, very foolish set of humans. They are puppets to mainly france. We are getting tired of useless democracy where elections are rigged massively, everything is bad, nothing works, youths are running away from their country. More will come, the region will collapse. u cant keep people like this for ever, they will revolt one day.

Racoon:
It is diplomatically wise for your leadership to leave serious internal problems to go solving problems outside? Case of Nero fiddling with outside issue while room burns.

Na French boy o. U no go understand.

owobokiri:
Troops should be deployed in Sambissa. In Sokoto, in Yobe.
We have all sorts of serious security issues here.
Nigerias troops have nothing to do in Benin Republic.
Allow that country to sort herself.
Benin Republic is a country of her own. She is not the 37th state of Nigeria.
Plsss
Tinubu should stop using Nigerias military assets to fight French wars in Africa..

My brother, u have said it all. This man is simply European ass licker. I was telling someone that this man may drag Nigeria into serious war. This is France and Russia issue. Nigeria is getting involved. These foreign powers will mess Nigeria up. Omo, west africa is in wack state now

Fiscus105:
And u think Burkina Faso can imagine that? ....wen some of you only want to hear bad news concerning your country, just because your preferred candidate lost election.


Even if Nigeria is dozing, it's not any of Sahel alliance, that would try to touch the tail of Nigeria's Tiger.

Which Nigerian tiger? Guy, u are the funniest creature on earth. US just made small noise, ur politicians ran to US begging, they didnt even come, they didnt do anything, just mere barking, the entire country turned upside down.
U rate ur country so high. Ur country has no air defense system, neither does it have any independent sofwtare solution. Ur country should better stay neutral. If Nigeria allows france to use her for her proxy wwar with Russia, Nigeria will collect massive instability and nothing will happen. Nigeria is alrwayd overwhelmed by internal insecurity, it will just become next Somalia. Stay Neutral is the rule. Trying to align with France to cause trouble on her ex colonies will create more problems for Nigeria. For ur information, Russia and France are currently at proxy war. I bring u facts, not sentiments of assumption and bragging that holds no water. As u speak, terrorists are occupying many of ur country's local govts. That cant be the way of a tiger. As we speak, ur citizens are being kidnapped in their homes, schools are being locked and students kidnapped. Like they kidnap people in front of their gates. A Tiger cant be this weakling. Pls, naija already has enough problems, remain neautral and no allow white man use ur country head fight war. Russia invaded Ukrain that is backed by NATO, US, heaven did not fall o. And as for candidate, I am not such a person. I hate all naija politicians. Nigeria is a failed entity, dirty, useless, i cant travel on the road, I need to test drive my sporty car but I cant enter road becus of kidnapers, the country has no viable football league that we can go on weekends to watch. Go and see Moroccans, South Africans, tunisians, Egyptians, etc with viable leagues, and see how citizne enjoy weekends with friends and families watching their local leagues. Nigeria practically has no sector that works. From education, to electricity, no security, absolutely nothing works.

dreamxhaser:
Nigeria become a battle ground for two super powers? Are you kidding?

Bro in a full out war, the sahel states will be the battle ground

Are u kidding me? U share borders with these countries, they will bring the battle home especially being backed by super powers. tell ur president to remain neautral, una no dey hear world.

bobogogo:
The reason why the northern govts are having misplaced priority is because they dont own the resources that fetches them that amount of money. Northern govt are bandits of niger delta resources and their people expect banditary and terrorism to end.

Do U blame them? I blame the southern Nigerians. Can't we have movements in the south demanding to an end to these things? Why are we balless in the south ?
This same thing will happen with tax money. I will suffer and work, they will share the money to them. Haaaaaaa. I'm running mad. I m running mad. I will bear one child to reduce burden, they will marry 4 and birth 500 kids and my tax will be used to gift their states. Haaaaaaa
South needs to do something

I

Yankee101:
Release them before Nigerian trips get deployed to the entire region
We may not be eeefetively fighting inside banditary due to political considerations but I can assure we we are capable and will fight any outside unwarranted and unwelcome aggression

Ask Sierral Leone and Liberia

Why do Nigerians love to make noise?
U violated their airspace. U are at their mercy. U violated their airspace. And U are threatening them. Are U Nigeria govt? Some of U don't really know what is going on. Look, if care is not taken, Nigeria may get into serious trouble here. There is a power play between Russia and France in these countries. Russia has made them kick out France from these countries and I'm sure Russia hand dy for that Benin issue. On the other hand, France is using Nigeria to get info since French president and our president are paddy. I'm sure France helped Tinubu with intel about the coup that was discovered in Nigeria too.
The Sahel states are fully backed by Russia now. Make Una dey pray make what happened to Ukraine no happen here where Nigeria becomes a battle ground for two super powers. This is not noise noise talk. E go blood. We already have countless problems.

sulaak:
What did the Nigerian military government deliver from 1984 to 1999? Nigeria has a short memory; the Military is an extension of the Civilian government. But as bad as the Civilian government is, it is still better than the military government.

There is nothing better in Civial. Some of the best roads we have today, I read were constructed by Military. Civilans are worse criminals. If u know how much of ur money and resources have been stolen by these politicians eh. U will cry. If their 10th geneation no work, they cant still be average citzens sef.

Kemetian:
THE GIANT OF AFRICA.

We are not called that for no reason...

In fact the entire West Africa owes its stability to Nigeria.

If you visit Sierra Leone or Liberia today as a Nigerian, they literally worship the ground you walk on, due to their memory of how the Nigerian military ended their wars....

Giant of Africa for what? ur citizens are in kidnapped den begging money for ramsom to be paid to free them. Omo, this country is shameless. No carry this sense cross road o.

keemsleek:
Who ever remembers Liberia war will know what nigeria did has part of ecomog. I don't know if we still have ecomog? If benin President request for it ecowas will answer him. Nigeria situation is different terrorism is an internal issue and is settled internally. Nigeria has an obligation to meet with ecowas. Our monster is within us and only us can tame our monster. Did we intervene in cameroun problem no cos it's an internal affairs.

Military coup is internal affairs

sulaak:
David Hundeyin is wrong. The governments of Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger have been in an entrenched state of disaster, weakening their armies. I support the coup if it is to remove a useless and corrupt government, but a military government should be prepared to hand over to a civilian government within 6 months.

what has civilian govt done for 20 years, 50 years?

West african leaders, ur people will rise agaisnt u all some day. It is happening gradually. As long as u cant control birth rate, and u have refused to develop ur countries but choose to loot money for ur selves and families, peopple will rise and fight.

ibedun:
Based on this extremely negative mindset (and maybe hatred for your country and homeland) wouldn’t it be better for our people to stop making unnecessary babies? Our reproductive rate suggests that we are thoughtless, reckless and lacking intelligence.
How exactly do you people expect a country with an annual budget revenue of $62billion (carrying 250m people ooo!) to funds all the amenities you mentioned? It’s not going to fall from the sky, is it?

Govt are elected, paid and cared for to drive the country, right? They should come out with plan to control birth rate. It is not me. I dont plan birthing more than one or max two. I am not a fan of babies. No body is paying me in Nigeria, it is the duty of those heavily paid with our natural resources and sweat to handle that. They are well taken care from them selves to their families. I have negative mindset about Nigeria becus it is a complete failed country. It has failed in health care, it has failed in education, it has failed in transportation, it has failed in electricity, governance, etc. All they do is waste it. If u are close to chidlren of politicians and see how they waste money eh, these people gathered wealth that wont finish in 1000 years.
Structure the country into regions or practice true federalism, una say no. How do u want them to curb poppulation when they need it to win election? But wants me to pay from my nose? I will be working hard, controling birth rate and denying my self of somethings but someone else will marry 4 wives and birth 20 children and my tax will be used to care for the person? Make them dey play. There were many reports by credible UK based newpapwers and US based newspapers talking about how Nigerian and west african politicians have the largest houses in londo estates. These men have loot the entire country dry. These countries are blessed with so much resources that they couldnt harnessed or be accountable for.

God1000:
Cameroon is next, Paul Biya needs to go


But west Africa appears to be the most unstable region in Africa in terms of insecurity, bad governance and coup d'etat

West Africa is the worse of the entire continent. There is nothing working in west africa. I watched a match between an Egyptian Club and Morrocan club and I was like, omo, u go think sey u dey Europe. U cant find such in west africa. All we do here is loot by these old men, useless old men and women. Bunch of failed elders.

FreeStuffsNG:
You're just making up silly excuses because you can't wean yourself of easy and dodgy money for quick self gratification.

The food you're paying for and eating must have been cultivated in Pluto and harvested by ghosts since every farmer in Nigeria has been murdered according to your warped mentality.

You can run but can't hide from the tax man and what you leverage on as technology today will be replaced someday so don't wonder when you are stranded in later years because you spent your young age picking low hanging fruits and enjoying the vanity from unrestrained immediate self gratification.

People like u are mad, there are fulani herdsers crises well documented all over Nigeria and u are here talking bushit. Nigeria's insecurity is well known. I cant count how many people have been killed in Obiarugwu in Delta state, they are farmers, they killed and raped these farmers. U dont have electricity, u dont have good roads, u dont have adequate security and u are telling people to build industries? From where?
A country needs to do the right things first before talking of idustries. The locals will build indurstries after govt provide security, electricity, and flexibile system. And if u think people will not legally avoid tax, they play. Even in sophiscated countries like America, people like Elon Musk are doing it till date, infact there is a new news about him. People will legally avoid tax and there is nothing u can do about it because even ur politicians will use same tool to do same.
Better hold ur leaders accountable to build schools that will focus on STEM, solve electricity problem and build proper transportation system and not waste the money on looting and buying properties in Dubai. And ibadan well known son was killed after all decades he spent in german, he gathered his money, returned home to invest massively in agriculture but was killed by herders. Dey play. Cows will walk pass ur farm lands and u cant do anything. This is the major cause of pricy food items. As for tax, dey play, legally, u will reduce ur tax or avoid it sef.

FreeStuffsNG:
He condemned the ease with which private jets fill Nigerian airports, arguing that such wealth should be channelled into production, saying, “You know, if you have money for Rolls-Royce, you should go and put up an industry in your locality or anywhere, part of Nigeria, wherever you feel there is a need.
💯

In few days time, heavy taxes on luxury items will take effect

Heavy taxes on buisness is still there. Why should I give govt 30 percent of my hard earned money from busiess?
U are asking people to invest. I want to invest in agriculture with money from remote work but the fear of fulani wont let me. I know how many young guys who made some cash from remote would have love to invest in some agric based business but the policy is wacky, anyone can destroy ur farmland and nothing can be done.
U have wacky electricity and pathetic water system, extreme security and bloody road system and u want industriliaztion and u still want to take 30 percent of the few company's profit. We dey play for Nigeria. 50 years from now, Nigeria will still be a mess and even worse.

Eya, baba, nigeria takes aid from US which is part of what is sustaining u all politcians who are complete useless to us. No impact, just uselessnes and waste of our money. So, EA, US, all are funding ur country bro. So, they will dictate for u
