WeirdAlien:
It's your thinking that is misplaced.
So, you just believe what the "reports" says??
Are they not citizens? why can't they protest against Abuja demolition?
If you think it's wrong for them to protest any perceived issues with governance, then you deserve every suffering you get resulting from Nigeria's bad leadership.
Aluta spirit is completely dead. When it was alive, politicians were very careful to visit campuses - students will call you out!

It seems à new lexicon in the dictionary of the lazy and wailers is "suffering " ! You're the one actually suffering from ignorance!

WeirdAlien:
This is the mentality that has brought the Nigeria to its knees under nonsense leadership. You're probably quite young to know some things.
In those days up to early 2000s, the SUG excos will mobilize students from Awo Hall to block the minister's vehicle from leaving the campus until those students are released.
In that same OAU, Obasanjo was locked up in the toilet in 1999 by students. He became president a few months later and nothing happened.
LAUTECH SUG excos once blocked a sitting governor (Lam Adesina) from entering his vehicle on campus, and he had to trek with them till he got outside. The same students once blocked a governor's convoy (Bukola
Saraki) from passing the town, and he had to turn back to Ilorin and find an alternative route.

This is indicative of the fact that every public office holder is accountable to the people, they're not kings or lords you can't challenge or protest against, anytime, anywhere!

I'm saying this so you know how much respect was given to university students. Now, they're treated like shit.

And where had it taken them to? The report says fellow students wants to bounce on the 2 guy protesters but for timely intervention of the college security staff!
Students didn't protest about what's distracting their educational exploits but concerned themselves with Abuja demolition!
Misplaced priority!

That's Emefiole strategy, hoping to get Northern support for the presidency?

.how will they win the case in court in which the court wike has pocketed and captured

That's your perception!

The US Ambassador to Nigeria , Ambassador Richard M. Mills, Jr., stated this at the Lagos Business School FireSide Chat yesterday at the Pan Atlantic University where he said the tariffs were meant to balance trades with other nations.
He said Nigeria is America's largest trade partner in Sub-Saharan Africa with more American businesses presence than in any othèr African countries !

At the Lagos Business School's exclusive Fireside Fire Chat, Ambassador Richard M. Mills, Jr., U.S. Ambassador to Nigeria, discussed the U.S.-Nigeria commercial and investment partnership. He highlighted the $6bn trade relationship in 2023, the largest in sub-Saharan Africa, and commended President Tinubu and the minister of commerce and trade for stimulating FDIs. He acknowledged recent tax reforms as addressing business and trade concerns.

The Ambassador also discussed the potential for new opportunities in agriculture, digital technology, infrastructure, healthcare, and capital markets.
He also highlighted the challenges faced by American businesses, such as energy-power issues and corruption. He also discussed the China-Nigeria trade relationship and the need for a fair environment for investors.

That's not critiscm but foolishness! Why can't you go and protest at Abuja or better take him to court for performing a lawful duty?

Their results when released will be a subject of interest!

What's the global outlook of Democracy? Africa inclusive!
Keep a date with this thread!

From previous topic: https://www.nairaland.com/8437691/democracy-dead-nigeria
Nigeria exactly 26 years ago transitioned from Authoritarian military rule to Democratic Civil Rule but we do face challenges.

As a nation, Nigeria like other countries of the world faces challenges but concerted efforts must be made by both the government and the governed to make democracy work in Nigeria.
That's Patriotism and Loyalty! God bless Nigeria.

It's less than 24hrs to 29th May, 2025 marking 26 years of return to Democratic Governance in Nigeria after prolonged military rule!

The People's Democratic Party (PDP) ruled for 16 years before the All Progressive Party (APC) took over after a coalition of progressives ideal with a faction of the PDP ! Today opposition , some critics and political analysts had alluded to the fact that democracy is dead in Nigeria!
But is democracy really dead in Nigeria?
The following infographics, highlights some indices and countries globally and Africa where Democracy had been buried.
This series compiled by Calvox Datalytics Solutions (Good Governance Initiatives) will be concluded tomorrow.

agulion:
Tinubu is a big disappointment, even most of us Yoruba Muslims will support Peter Obi in the next election, we thought Tinubu had something to offer, despite removing subsidy nothing have changed

Like what do you think will change?

Thanks for Abike Dabiri Agency for the reunion?

Nigerians can't even trust the person full of deceit, going about de-marketing their country!

rinzaugustine:
Everyone knows tinubu have waged a full scale war on our opposition, innocent Nigerians, institutions etc using INEC , judiciary, police , army , DSS while thieves like Ganduje , akpabio, Wike, other corrupt elements around him walk around freely ….bandits, terrorists, killers, high way armed robbers are now more emboldened to unleash impunity on Nigerians causing innocent law abiding citizens live in fear… Supreme Court in their judgement granted Wike group prayers they never asked for , unprecedented in anywhere in the world to see such brazen corruption leaving the country in collapse but evil doesn’t last forever and will come to an end in a little while as it has always been…spits!

mumu talk!

mamaafrik:
The APC is the one heavily bankrolling and bribing these people to defect.

We it was never this worse

What stops others doing everything at retaining them?

wunmi590:


So yahaya bello have finally been exonerated from his corruption scandal, he's now a saint, because he's in APC, nawa ooo...

y
So because he's facing prosecution, he can't fight others defaming him?

LagosOrigin:
Always talking like a drunk

You claimed that you know road but Peter Obi humiliated you in Lagos so much that it took the help of the INEC chairman to rig the election to save you shame

INEC should conduct a free and fair election and see if Peter Obi won't defeat tinubu before 2pm

According to your own corrupt mind?

Until Obi stopped parading himself as a saint and not part of those that brought Nigeria to this level of despair, the bashing will continue!

Omoawoke:
It is shameful!

Something is definitely wrong with the black man

Misplaced expectations! Please what's the state or local government job?

Challenge Buhari? People that doesn't know the job Buhari supposed to do!
Your state or at most LGA Executives are saddled with such!

a fool talk in a beer parlour@
