Which way Nigerians, is that how we want to build this nation, with lies and criminality?

As much as I am not justifying the acts of nigerian mechanics, we have to be Frank with ourselves on one thing.

Labour is ridiculously cheap in nigeria.

These mechanics know that Nigerians don't have the culture of paying decent fees for labour, so they have also developed a culture of budget padding.

Like, there's no way a mechanic will give you a quotation and not add his own. In fact, if you want to make it impossible for him to add his own, he will rather tell you to go buy by yourself.

And the moment you fall for it, he will make sure the repair doesn't yield result just so he can fault your decision to buy spare parts yourself.

But really, you can blame them as long as they don't over do the padding.

Whenever I use the services of a mechanic, I feel guilty paying them small money for all the labour and going under the car, getting dirty and all.

The same thing one would pay heavily for in developed countries.

It's a dicey game between car owners and mechanics. U need frog eyes.

WizardOfNG:
Okpebolo is 100% correct. Good guys, at no stage in history, have ever won capitulating to terrorists.

Personally sad innocent Nigerians are collateral damage for these desperate born-to-rule marauders sponsoring terror but good will prevail over evil in the end.

As you wish onto other Nigerians, so shall it be onto you

HacheNoire:
Louder!

We the disciples and followers of His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) know the opposition is behind the current insecurity in Nigeria.

Former Governor Ayo Fayose already gave us an insight.

They only reinforcing our support for His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)

As you've said, even if they kidnap you too, tinubu till 2031 baa? Weldone

Klington:
Well meaning Nigerians are right behind Obi and kwankwaso for a better Nigeria. He will perform way far better than he did in 2023 because sending tinubu the failure out is our collective and patriotic responsibility.

It's very easy to tell who is a reasonable, responsible nigerian citizen and this is one.

Unlike the hungry ones who will say all sorts of mumu things in support of a failed president because of chicken change.

yarimo:
In reality it will be deficult for obi to get 1 million total votes cast in 2027

Mr oracle.

You can bet your life savings on it if e sure for you say obi won't get 1m.

You will just talk aimlessly because of small change dem dey give you.

TemplarLandry:
How would the feminine man do that? What helped him the other time was people's skepticism about the muslim-muslim ticket, and now, they've overcome that fear. Peter Gbajuẹ̀ stands no chance and will be overly humiliated at the 2027 polls.

Unfortunately for you, that Muslim Muslim ticket you talk about is one of your Oga's heavy burdens this time around.

If you think the average Nigerian Christians will skip obi and vote for this current Latin speaking president romancing jihadist, you are slow and stale.

We've seen the best of tinubu in the past 3 years plus.

He is an aristocrat with zero mercy for the poor.

A brutal capitalist that is deaf to the plight of the masses.

Yall already know he cannot win in a free fair election, it even that una rigging style, we go wait for una. It will not be business as usual in 2027.

Richtaiwo:
Impossible. He simply cannot.

The SE votes he rigged so aggressively in 2023 have now been fragmented and are under full coverage. Even Lagos, which he only managed to win by a narrow margin, is unlikely to be as generous this time around, as many residents have come to see through the grand deception and empty promises.

The recent election in Abuja was merely a microphone test, a small preview of what lies ahead. As for the religious rhetoric that helped him attract some votes from some Northern Christians, that script has already been used. Reheating the same stale propaganda will not produce the same results. People are no longer buying the ticket.

Don't worry, we will remind people like you in 2027 when obi wins.

Delusional lots, you really thing the average Nigerian wants to continue with this one chance, wicked govt by tinubu.

We know that tinubu has bought all these so called civic society spokesmen, I'm not surprised this arewa guy is speaking this gibberish.

Yall continue with your propaganda.

We the people are the true owners of Nigeria and I tell you, there will be a shake up and power will change hands.

izombie:
4 The person you quoted, you know am before? How do you know those actors are better than him?. What he said is right. Good market sells itself. No need for rallies to tell people tinubu is working. It should be clear that tinubu is working

Don't try to enlighten people like this guy.

They know what they're doing.

Na brown envelope dey make them unplug their brains before talking

brain54:
See them...


Cheap and hungry souls. Poverty of the mind dey worry them.


SMH!

Ttalk:
Those people you are badmouthing are better exposed, better educated, well connected and more richer than you. No amount of insult will add to your account balance. Hustle o

If you read comment of a hungry person you will know.

This is one.

All you said may be true for you. You don't sound educated anyway.

But don't project your lover mentality on other sensible people.

Leave the man alone, respond to his comment.

Nukilia:
The guys would lead the police to where they kept the other victims.

LET THE GOVERNMENT SEND THEM TO THE FIRING SQUAD

Yall have an inchoate sense of justice.

Firing sqard is a peaceful, too easy death for such gruesome killers.

They should also be slaughtered in the same manner the teacher was slaughtered. Probably in the public place for prople to see.

Being slaughtered is one of the most painful deaths a living being can be subjected to.

I'm not a medical practitioner, but I can imagine that the neck region has all the pain receptors in it.

Every confirmed terrorist deserves worse than firing squad.

They would be burnt alive If it was up to me to decide their fate.

helinues:
He will definitely win his reelection and the terrorists will pay you a visit

It is not hidden that you are an enemy of Nigeria.

You don't care if the killings of citizens by terrorists continue, as long as your tinubu wins.

It's a waste of time to try to help you make sense in your thinking.

You are unrepentantly sentimental and bias against your own country just because you want to support the ambition of just one individual because of carrots tied in front of you.

Under tinubu's watch and permission, terrorists are kidnapping and killing on live stream.

It will most certainly not affect me or my family because I am well positioned.

But unlike you, I'm humane and not a destitute. I have conscience. People cannot be dying everyday under a govt and I will canvass for such govt to continue.

Only hungry people like you can do that.

Continue, it's your destiny.

But whenever I see any, I will always destroy mischievous and delusional political statements like yours so that people don't take you seriously.

helinues:
You don dey shift oo.

I no dey shift.

My position is the same.

If tinubu wins in 2027, terrorists will overrun nigeria and citizens will be the casualties.

So we will not let that happen. We will defend our votes in 2027 more than ever.

A govt that is openly siding with terrorist even as they slaughter citizens on live streams IS NOT COMING BACK.

He too said we should not vote for him if he doesn't provide stable electricity.

This was how buhari was given a 2nd chance and he did even worse during his 2nd tenure.

No more emilokan. Its nigerians 'lokan

helinues:
Happy dying in advance then

We have proclaimed that your plans will not work. A new prosperous nigerian will be ushered in 2027, so it is all dark energies like you that will be dead.

Funny enough, the people you work for won't be dead, but you will be.

helinues:
Hope it won't eventually turn to the 2023 election which up till today, Labour party are yet to post the results which they collated at their tallying center

Also in the 2023 election, LP didn't have party agents in over 40% of the polling units.

We want the opposition to put their acts together so that there won't be any story of rigging as the beating will be thorough in 2027

The beating will be thorough because they've shown you the proposed results of the 2027 elections abi.

There's an adage in yoruba: if you want a deaf man to get the gist, say it in the presence of his child.

So tell them, 2027 is going to be a fight for our lives as Nigerians. If we lose, we are all dead.

Stop the wishful thinking that any ploy to circumvent the people's will will succeed again.

But continue your rhetoric sha, LP didn't have 40% agents. Mr Statistics.

yarimo:
This is very commendable from the FG delegation, FG is on top of the situation.

U can never comment with wisdom. Something go spoil for your body if you do.

Mr Commendable. If the beheaded teacher was your uncle, will u be speaking grammar like this.

Diamond098454:
I lost my only sibling, the only sibling i have in this world money couldn't save him. But there are those that doesn't have money but they are alive, healthy and happy. They will get sick and recover without visiting a health center
Now you see one of the reasons i said money is not everything

Sorry for your loss.

Money is certainly not everything. Only God is.

buygala:
When he is sworn in for a 2nd term, conduct a coup and remove him

I detest Tinubu and his government...But as it stands, only death can stop him from a 2nd term...

Atiku, Obi and Jonathan are all working against themselves to split their votes, leaving Tinubu to coast to victory

With this comment of yours you don't detest tinubu. You probably work for him.

Did you go to school under a tree? Your math is poor. Tinubu is the most unpopular among the contestants yet, he is the one that will coast to victory?

Tinubu is running alongside 2 southern giants to slit votes with him while atiku can possibly seat on the entire votes from the north. But somehow for you, tinubu is the one likely to coast?

This is nothing but psychological warfare tinubu camp is deploying to gaslight Nigerians. But his real hope is rigging only

Yall don't want to agree that without rigging, tinubu cannot command 5million real votes.

While obi/Kwankwaso will command at least 10m even with Jonathan on the ballot.

Atiku, maybe 3, 4m.

Meanwhile, its very likely Jonathan will leave the race.

If you tell us tinubu can win with rigging, we agree. In which case it wouldn't matter if Jonathan contests or not.

RollinTNDA:
I know a very rich lady who sleeps with me behind her husband back. Why??

Her husband is super rich.

But she confess to me that she lost the excitement of LIFE. That her husband over provide and this made him look unattractive and boring.

So she wanted to feel human again
That's why she cheats behind his back .
That the adrenaline and excitement fear of being caught makes her feel alive

If you like get 200$ billion.
Una 2 will definitely be bored of each other
Look at Will smith
Upon all the fame and money and praises he shower his wife. She still go sleep with one guy called August Alsina

A poor man thinks money is everything
Until they get it and find out it can't buy true love

And who told you poor couples too don't get tired of each other.

But yall pay more attention to the rich and whatever they do.

Nobody said money is everything, nobody said you can't be miserable with money.

A man without game is a man without game, money can get him chicks but will not cure his game problem.

The rich guy whose wife you're forking is a boring person, but the money is not the cause of the boredom, it's the guy.

However, the rich guy is better off with his money, because without the money, that wife would either have left him for you or he would never have gotten to marry her in the first place.

Money is a big advantage always.

Auditt:
Every mallam and hin kettle, as if all the married Nigerian are vacating in Dubai yearly. Also, all the married people are leaving in Lekki, and every children attend private schools.

We use our hands to create standards we can’t maintain. The most important thing in life is happiness

Most of you don't want to say it as it is.

It takes money to cultivate happiness. You cannot be happy without money unless u dey disguise.

Everything that makes you happy involves money.

Decent shelter is money.

Good diet is money.

Good education is money.

Good healthcare is money.

All these things listed above are even more expensive in nigeria.

Diamond098454:
Everything is not money

You can have money but the happiness is not there.

You can also be poor and the happiness will not be there.

Let's stop pretending money is not good. Everybody is better off with money in the bank.

People like to console themselves because it's hard to be rich.

BTW if you're rich but unhappy, you are the problem, not money.

njokuuche77:
This is what the country has gradually turned into under this clueless government, a place where some security agents now behave like they are above the law because they believe nothing will happen to them.
Shame!!! Tinubu has failed woefully and must be voted out.

As much as I agree with you that Tinubu is a failure. The police of Nigeria has been like this before Tinubu came.

Nigeria has always been a land of wickedness and impunity.

Only that social media is giving it more visibility.

Nigerians have no human rights but they don't know or don't want to admit it.

We are so deluded a people, we don't want to see that we still live in colonisation.

This is a country that should be struggling for nationhood but we're here complaining that our colonisers are not respecting our human rights. Who dash una human rights?

cyril10:
All na wash, he and his wicked dad are riding on our common wealth.

They've never denied that.

But the consolation doesn't reduce the suffering

LordIsaac:
Truth is, the Jagaban should not even be in the race. However, he is the next President already...one Nijeriya made sure of it.

You don't have to say this.

He is not the next president yet. Don't demoralise people waiting to fight to exercise their franchise.

Nothing is impossible. Don't project that loser's mentality here, it's not what Nigerians need now.

Let's not be fooled by the loud noise of the naysayers and evil zombies supporting tinubu.

They may be the loudest because they have been paid for the exercise.

But I assure you, there is an overwhelming population of Nigerians conserving their energy for the D day.

They are not on the internet making noise. No time for that.

There's a big revolution of the mind ongoing amongst electorates. And they will not be pushed over by inec or the courts this time around.

No democratic govt has ever been as insensitive and disconnected from its people as this current govt in the entire world.

They are working against the forces of nature and they will be humbled

So don't tell them tinubu is the next president already.

Jayhome24:
Sorry who is Yvonne whatever? Yvone or whatever you are called you better go and sit your a s s somewhere we don't know you and your opinion not needed cus it's irrational, useless and political so f e c k off.

This is a retarded response.

What part of her post is not a reality in nigeria.

If you're paid to attack complaining citizens online, you can still be more creative.

They will surely sack you if they see this.

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.

Evil talk.

Forget the messenger, stop attacking her. Respond to the issue.

Every policy tinubu has introduced in the name of reform is an imperialist policy.

The true value of the currency. Which true value. Who determined the value and how did they determine it.

The main reason our currency is weak is low gdp.

Now, tell us, what is tinubu doing right now to improve our gdp?

Our net export is very low because we import almost everything, even non essential goods. If tinubu wanted to embark on true reforms, he will ban the importation of all non essential items that Nigeria is capable of producing.

Things like building material should never be imported (people should buy the ones produced in nigeria low quality or not)

Anything clothing must not be imported for ten years. To create jobs in that sector and boost the sector.

The popular rumour that we import toothpick should also be resolved once and for all. They should ban importation of toothpicks, we should go back to using broom or whatever until we develop capacity to produce them.

All none essential good that we can realistically produced should be totally banned. While govt pumps money into circulation to increase consumer spending and encourage businesses to survive.

In the absence of this kind of moves, the value of Naira can never improve.

So tinubu is just making Nigerians suffer for nothing. Its all scam. They just want to impoverish the population that's all.

A country with this level of insecurity (almost like we're at war) cannot achieve improvement in gdp.

A country without stable electricity can never record improvement in gdp.

A country that uses so much of its budget to pay politicians and very little of it on education and research is not on its way to improved gdp.

Low human capital equals low gdp.

Tinubu is not doing any of the above to improve our gdp.

What this means is that we are just enduring the pain of this so called reforms for nothing.

They are just robbing Peter to pay Paul.

You're presiding over a country with a very corrupt bureaucracy, you know no amount of 'necessary reforms' will have any positive impact on the people without dealing with corrupt bureaucracy but you pose hardship on everybody.

Hardship policies that are unlikely to bring any positive results.

You remove all subsidies and you know it will jack up prices of all essential commodities but you refuse to increase minimum wage accordingly to help the masses.

If you ask tinubu today where all the monies are, he will say the governors are getting more allocation now than ever.

Governors? When you haven't put any mechanism in place to ensure this governors can be held accountable.

They know what they're doing, unfortunately, some myopic nigerians are still supporting them. Shame

There is no country in the world that doesn't deploy some kind of patch or wage to its economy to avoid sudden impact on its vulnerable population.

Nigerian is a country where 80% of the population is vulnerable and you go ahead to remove all subsidies as if you will use the monies to empower the people.

I will keep responding to demonic remarks on here so yall don't infect other people's minds.

Tinubu does not mean well for any of us. He only does what our colonisers/oppressors tell him to do to us and he takes his own rewards for an evil job well done.

Justice505:
Everybody just behaving as if all is well forgetting that childrens who are not up to ten years are in the forest held hostage and we are celebrating as a country, how did we became so cold and heartless to children is something i don't understand.

My bro, in this d*monic entity called Nigeria, there are different types of children.

Children of the rich and other children.

The lives of other children don't count as you can see.

In a country where our own people are beings slaughtered on live stream, you have the govt telling us we have to hope that the criminals are willing to surrendered, so that they will be reintegrated.

I used to doubt that clip until I saw it for myself yesterday.

It pains me that Nigerian are still so g*llible and cannot see that they need to either re*volt to displace the current ruling class or continue in hardship that will continue to worsen by the day.

Africans are generally mentally inferior that they will rather remain slaves than think outside the box.

The fact that religion is more successful a tool for neo-colonisation in Africa than anywhere else on the globe is evidence that we are so gullibl*and ignorant as a race.

And that ignorance will keep us as slaves for eternity.

AustineE1:
Even if it is the reason he is been beaten,I don't really think is right,people have the right to campaign for him but nobody should be coerce to vote for him. Violence is not the solution,we will get our voters cards ready,prepare to protect our votes at all cost and send him packing from Aso Rock without any form of violence.
My take!

Una be mumu no be today.

If someone you know has been recently slaughtered due to insecurity permitted by this govt, you will know that citizens should be at war with anybody supporting this wicked govt.

Violence is the answer to violence.

Exousiang01:
1. If the form was N5k do you know how many idiots would have bought it?
Do you know how much chaos it would cause to have over 1000 people running for primaries in one Federal Constituency

2. The price is put high because the party needs money to run it's affairs.
Primary the elections automatically means general elections are around the corner, every party needs money.

During the 2023 election the those who bought form for presidential election were about 20, even Yahaya Bello and Onu bought forms, That was their contribution to the party for the elections.
Not everything is as you see in politics.

Form is another way of getting money into the party treasury without raising dust

Party members pay dues to support the activities of the party so..

Also, I'm not saying it should be as low as 5k, something like 500k is fair.

Because when someone has too pay 10m just for form, no campaign yet, he will begin to see the office as a financial investment that must bring returns.

Just saying though
