Apc govt treated these kidnappers with kids gloves when they started these kidnapping business that's why the kidnapping all over nigeria has taken a frightening dimension i watched a video on telegram today of a young kidnapper that was captured in gambia and was butchered alive like an animal by the captors very extremely graphic video that really disturbed my mind.

That's where the problem is. Right since 1999, all terrorists and criminal elements have all be treated with kids gloves and that's why we are where we are now. Buhari government did worst by giving room for his brothers to spread their terrorism and criminal activists from down north to all over the country.

With what happened to that kidnapper guy in Gambia, others in Gambia will be afraid to dear such act again and insecurity will have no space in Gambia.

If it were here.....dude would've just increased his ranking and influence amongst his peers for looting such a huge amount of money.....almost everything works upside down here.

The government is a reflection of what we are as a people.

commoditiesnig:
Yes there is progress no matter how little steps

Take for example:

The civil service with ghost workers years back, technology has reduced that to barest minimum (I worked in a state civil service back then so I know what I’m saying)

The Oil sector with subsidy corruption - people claiming they imported fuel and paid billions but no fuel in sight… Now that is blocked! Refineries springing up

The Banking sector with strong CBN reforms and oversight.

I can go on an on.. As I stated it’s not Uhuru yet, the country still has a long way to go BUT PROGRESS IS MADE gradually

All you’re seeing is the effect of NASCENT DEMOCRACY. The Country will still take years to fully MATURE.

Again Let’s be positive and keep pushing for Progress of our Country.

Let's be positive as how? All this u are saying is just long talk. The Nigeria government and Nigerians are not positioning Nigeria for anything near progress even in a thousand years to come. Take it or leave it, it is what it is.

commoditiesnig:
Well said mr President.. let’s keep supporting the progress of our Nation

Lol! What progress are u talking about, progress in corruption or progress in backwardness, which one? Does Nigeria look like a country that is ready to progress even in a thousand years to come?

Lithiumite:
How many igbos?and there is nothing wrong if a few people comment on suleiman,but you will never see it has mainstream apc propaganda like obidients are making adeboye's statement sound......attack his statement and proffer superior argument but not attacking his person....this isnt about who is wrong or right,its about Nigeria and how to make it better.

If it isn't politics why should adeboye's statement bother you?

Which politics, do u think I still support any of this evil Nigeria politicians that have ruin the country beyond repairs? Yes I use to support them before and play politics like others, but when it became clear that apart from Yaradua government, the military regimes was far much better than the civil rules we have be having since 1999, then I stayed clear from politics.

You said Adeboye statement bothered me, as how, why will Adeboye statement bother me? If not for ur comment calling out Ojukwu, Suleiman and Obi supporters and claiming apc supporters are different, I wouldn't have commented on the post. Checked all the post about Adeboye or any individual here on nairaland and see whether u will see any of my comment in any of them. Even if u see my comments, it will be on quoting what someone said just like urs, but not on the original post.

My major concern is how will can eradicate bad governance in Nigeria and that's why my comments only attacked those in governance and those encouraging them to keep governing the country wrongly and not individuals.

Lithiumite:
And what's wrong with anybody supporting anybody in the first place,whats wrong with anybody having an opinion tiday and feeling differently about it tomorrow......the legendary ikemba Nnewi,dim odimegwu ojukwu that bravely fought a war of secession which to him at the time saw it as a war of freedom and emancipation for his people but was on record to have later declared that he agreed the war wasn't the best option at the time,someone who fought for and represented biafra still ran for office in the same country he sought to secede from.......that in anyway never diminished his person as a hero in the annals of our history and nobody from his tribe ever saw cause to ridicule him for having a different view after putting 3m of them to the slaughter.

Adeboye is an individual and has a right to his opinion which must be respected by everyone,you do not have to attack his person,thats the highest point of intolerance, how many apc supporters to you see insulting or harassing apostle suleiman or any clergy that is considered a hardliner against their party?

Many Igbos was against Ojukwu when he came back to Nigeria and was even calling him a coward including then governor of Anambra State. I have seen many comments before from most apc supporters here on nairaland against apostle Suleiman when ever he go against the government. Didn't they knew he was an individual citizen when they went against him?

By the way who told u guys it's Obi supporters that's going againt Adeyboye? So u guys want Nigerians to be applauding someone who is being double standard in his judgment? Someone who was very vocal against Jonathan government but went mute as soon as apc government took over power? Even despite the apc government taking Nigeria far worst than where Jonathan left it?

I know everything is politics to u apc supporterss (especially those from southwest) and don't give a damn whether Nigeria is burning or not as far as u guys are doing well in politics, which is the reason terrorism/banditery have spread all the country today. And that's why u guys are always calling out Obi supporters to make yourselves look inclined politically and to also create chaos against reasonable Nigerians who are speaking out against the evil government of day which u all supported.

malali:
JAPA and collect stray bullet from random shootings or your child gets killed in school from a random gunman. Every society has its ills.

With all the crowd of people from Nigeria that have troops into Europe, Uk, Canada and Australia within the last 20 years, how many of them u done hear/see wey collect stray bullets or their pikin die for school? Even the America wey make una dey always talk am, how many of una Nigerians people u done see/hear that was hit by a stray bullet or their kids get killed in school?
Yes one or two few incident occurred, but it is at it barest minimum.

eepeepook:
They were known in the community and everyone tolerated their excesses. Now they’ve done the worst, people have revealed one name. Na so e be. Communities are the major reason why hoodlums flourish. If he was long arrested, such event would’ve not occurred. It is the same in the north, only that those ones play cat and mouse with the military.

The ones that were reported by the community and were arrested but later released nkor? Do u know how many innocent people have lost their life's because they reported criminals in their environment to the polie? Police will arrest them, most of them wouldn't even spend up to one year in prison and they will be released back to the society and u want people to risk their life for such nonsense? The problems of unending criminals/terrorists activities in the country lies on the government and not the people, and until the government start being serious with the issue of criminals/terrorists activities in the country, the people will always remain helpless.

Sheuns:
Na for here their pricks Dey take hard.

If e reach the turn of those other guys now, dem go go soft.

Shioor.

If the military guys ever eventually interfere with governance again and decided to be worse than even Babaginda and Abacha, u guys along side the good for nothing politicians in power u support should know u caused it all. And they are going to come for u all and nor of u guys will have a say because they have learnt all the abnormalities in government from the civilians in power since 1999 (especially the ones from 2015).

Alphafarms:
Nigeria is the only country in the world, who's past is better than its future

Apart from Yaradua presidency, the worst military regimes has been far better than all the civilian rule Nigeria have had since 1999.

richiejedi:
So you think they just woked up and streamed into the bush hoping on mother luck abi? After getting their location with the drone, spirits will go in to rescue them from the kidnappers abi?

After getting their location, they are suppose to go with air raid first before thinking about ground operation.

Kemetian:
But there are over 3 million Indians in South Africa, which is 3 times more than all African migrants combined.

And 1 million Pakistanis.

Are all those Indians and Pakis "running big businesses", which seems to be your excuse for supporting the beating of Africans on South Africa's streets?

India and Pakistan are poorer than numerous African countries in the UN HDI and income per capita.

No one has told them to "go beck end fix your kaaantry".

Is it because they are light-skinned?

Are u ok? Where in my comment did u see me supporting the beating of other Africans in South Africa? Or is the effect of always supporting and defending bad bad things started affecting u?

nairalanda1:
Fixing the country won't stop migration

There are many Americans living and working abroad despite the fact that their economy is working apparently.

Those Americans are in other countries running big businesses and even controlling the indigenous people of those countries in their country. But most percent of Africans are migrating abroad to go do nonsense jobs that they wouldn't dear do in their own country and the remaining percent either manage to get a good paying jobs, or they are at home looking for who to be feeding them, or they go into crimes.

Saw one of the comment on the post that the unity of Africans is suppose to start from Nigeria because they claim to be giant of Africa and I just feel bad. Nigeria government since 1960(especially the ones from 1999 till date) have really done alot of damages to Nigeria, and the most painful part is that the current government of the day are even worse than the past ones. All the expectations from Nigeria in Africa when it was found has all gone down the drain

Ebenezer2021:
so you're proposing for a coup?

The actions of the Nigeria politicians is calling for it, and I just hope they can face it if it eventually happens. The reason Nigeria was able to wrestle power away from the military guys back then was because of the fake propaganda the west and the politicians were busy selling to the people about the military governments.

But it's all clear to the people today that it was all propaganda and I doubt if the politicians can ever get that mass support they go back then from the people if the military guys ever interfere with governance again. Because we have all seen that nothing good can come out from the politicians. They have been in power for straight 27 years without any reasonable thing to show for, Infact they have continuously abused our democracy and take the people for granted to the extent of taking the country worst than where the military guys left it.

I just hope that we get the right person in the helm of affairs in this country and the country becomes what everyone can proudly call our own.

HacheNoire:
Like Israel will ever tell you their own losses!

If not for US senate and House investigative journalism, we wouldn’t have even confirmed that the US lost that much!

They censoring everything!

Last time they told us all missiles we’re intercepted only for Trump to confirm that, “Israel was badly hit”

Yes the Israeli were hit badly because Iran were busy throwing missiles to everyone including innocent civilians and buildings. If the United States or Israel have decided to throw their own missiles anyhow the way Iran did, u all know what would have become of Iran by now and how the whole world "especially the Muslims" will be crying of genocide.

Moreover, despite Iran hitting the Isreali so hard, non of it government officials or top military commanders were killed. But what about Iran, even their Supreme leader was wipe out like a commoner not to talk of the numbers of top government officials and military commanders that was wipe out too.

dequir:
Is Sowore an Igbo man? Yet he has been for a long time one man army against bad governance in Nigeria.

Are the children in your own region immune against kidnapping, have you soaked them in odeshi that can prevent that happening to them? Terr0r is at your doorstep, whether you sabi play politics or not, it is spreading, start preparing your immunity against it.

The people in my region have no reason to be panicking again because bandits have been at our doorstep terrorising us since Apc took over power and it's use to us now. Infact Banditry was part of the reason I myself stopped my crop farming business.

My people and other well meaning Nigerians were complaining seriously about fulani herdsmen bringing banditry and terrorism activities down to the south during Buhari government, but the north and west chooses to play politics over it (most especially the west), simply because they prefer politics over good governance. But today, shay the thing never reach the west now.

Though there are some well meaning westerners like Sowore and Dele Farotimi who have always spoke against bad governance in Nigeria but they are very few of them, and u know majority always carries the vote. Una weldone o people wey dey play politics.

dequir:
Silly excuses.

And that means your men are not better than the rest of other regions inhabitants, political sagacity or not, they are all bunch of failures. So stop promoting your son as a saint.

As per terrors, whether facilitated by IPOB, ISWAP, BOKO HARAM or Fulani bandits, it is everywhere across the nation. Everyone run fi cover when it strikes, so you have nothing to gloat about. And for the SW, there is no home grown terrorists there.

Which our men, did u see anywhere in my comment where I talk say I be Igbo man? Even though the Igbos have their flaws, I will always applaud the them because they are only the majority tribes in Nigeria that always calls out bad governance no matter how bad it goes to them.

There is terrorism everywhere in the country today because the north and west chooses politics over good governance. And u said there is no home grown terrorists in SW, and they became the first region in the south where school children were kidnapped in masses. Una weldone o, people wey sabi politics.

ohosi4real:
Na God just dey safe us from this country not what you list here. If God no dey ur side. If dey want see you dey will see. Na prayers dey help us

So those wey dey fall victim nor know God or sabi how to pray that's why them dey see them abi? Una weldone o.

dequir:
And the Igb0s wey no learn politics, have their region turn to a Dubai prototype, and are their people in their lands not still hiding from the IPOB terrorists every Monday?

How can their region turn to Dubai when the entire country is in mess because of those who decide to learn politics over good governance? And don't forget that their selfish leaders have no choice but to bow to the federal power for survival in government and politics even if it is a bad one.

At least na only on Monday their people dey hide, but what about the north and west that learn politics over good governance, those ones dey hide and run run everyday now for same country wey them chose to learn politics over good governance. Una weldone o.

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

Na politics wey north and west learn make Nigeria dey backward today as country. A country filled with so much promises and hope for other Africa countries when it got independence in 1960 has now become one of the worst performing and most ridiculed country in the world today, simply because the north and the west decided to learn politics instead of good governance. Una weldone.

Personperson01:
This has nothing no do with policies and reforms. Airtime credit only started when? Now all the politics of business want to claim it's good for business because it's mainly used by the poor. Think with your brains! Rich men and politicians will not borrow credit! They will buy directly from bank or worst case USSD or Normal vouchers.

Yes it's a good policy, but playing politics with it doesn't count because this are basic things that isn't supposed to even occurred in the first place if Nigeria government were serious. It was same Buhari who Tinubu and other Apc supporters supported all through his calamitous government that was supposed to have checkmate and regulate their operations.

Olukat:
Yes it’s so big money business and they’ve been doing it alone. If Nigerians like they should listen to politicians and their useless gimmicks and vote against this man. Pres. Tinubu is getting it right though painfully slow but the right calls are made.

Yes it's a good policy, but how does one policy that was supposed to have be corrected by Buhari now get to do with good governance? Was it not Buhari who Tinubu claimed he brought into power that gave them room for it in the first?

Yes they might have started it in Jonathan's time but it was election period and Jonathan might have be so busy with election activities to checkmate their operations then.

Buhari who won the election never bothered to check their operations and left them to be doing their thing, then all of a sudden, Tinubu who is in the same party with Buhari and is continuing from where he stopped now regulate their operations and u guys are claiming it's good governance. As how na

JASONjnr:
Sowore is now APC member? Una get wahala oh...

Nor be only Sowore, na Peter Obi and Atiku. I have seen several comments from Apc supporters here on nairaland criticising and abusing Abia State governor that he is running a propaganda government simply because he is a Labour party governor. But it's this same Abia State that is been used now to give an example of how a state government should function.

Igbophobia:
That Fajuyi 'elected ' to die for Aguiyi Ironsi is a lie concocted by the Lagos- Ibadan expresway media houises. Fajuyi was clearly marked for death by the coup-plotters.

Aguiyi Ironsi son who is paying the tribute today was there in Ibadan when the whole thing happened. So stop this hate because it wouldn't do u any good.

JASONjnr:
Abia state government that's controlling power in his state, is he not a governor?

You as an individual have the power to invest in the power sector and generate electricity..... It has gone beyond the government to provide power....

Stop defending visionless governors who do not know what they truly want....

So Abi State government that most apc supporters claimed is running a propaganda government is now what u are using to give an example of how a State government should function in their State? Nigerians matter hard nor be small.

Hez143:
he's right Sha,if the government can go after the sponsors, the foot soldiers will be easily decapitated

Which government wan go after the sponsor? By the way, who are the sponsors?

Nice write up.... But on the number 3 about students being broke, omor that one na before o, students this days are really something else.

Student this days have and spent money more than the working class people in the student environments. Boys students engaging in crimes for money and girls engaging in prostitution for money has become a norm in most institutions this days. Though they are some engaging in legit offline and online jobs/businesses to make money, but they are very few.

MarkNsukkaBread:
So because a woman is 30 she should accept any rubbish that comes her way just because she's desperate to get married?

You like talking nonsense!

Though he didn't came out straight, but we all know the angle he is heading to. We all know that about 95 percent of Nigerian ladies don't have any standard in a man other than a man having money. A man who has money and is ready to foot their bills and take full responsibility over their financial life is the standard of about 95 percent of Nigerian ladies.

Counterigbolies:
u Sabi

Now the opposition are mocking those that died n kidnapped believing that will make people support their candidate.

So apart from this recent killing n kidnapping, what does your candidate have to campaign with?

The Killing and kidnapping is not recent, it has been happening in the North, Middle belt, Edo Ondo and Delta for a very long time now but it was minimum. Not until Tinubu took over government and show to the terrorist how clueless he is that they have to take their business to Kwara and all parts of Southwest.

Babatunjo:
The thing about insecurity is that it will embarrass any government. All your other achievements become less meaningful. Your supporters start looking at you like a weak leader.

Tinubu has achieved nothing in governance since he took over government just as every other Nigerian leaders since 1960. The only difference is that others did not multiplied the suffering of the people by x10 at a go except Buhari who multiplied it by x3. At least even if the other government didn't do anything to uplift the country, but they didn't put the people into severe hardship, but today, Tinubu is busy doing nothing to uplift the country but rather busy running a propaganda government and plunging the people into severe hardship.

The issue of insecurity was still manageable during the government of others, except Buhari who triggered the insecurity situation to what it is in Nigeria today because he was trying to shield his Fulani people and Tinubu now making it worse by handling the situation with kid gloves and I don't care attitude thereby making it worse.
