Politics › Re: I never said Tinubu had done well for Nigeria's economy - Ezekwesili to PM News by reddingtonblack: 5:38pm On Aug 25
HacheNoire:
Does Oby Ezekwesili check her blood pressure frequently?

Why can’t she accept that His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) is the greatest president to ever govern Nigeria, and same time, one of the greatest humans to walk the surface of the Earth.

These facts are not hidden and open for all to see and why must she deny the glaring reality staring into her face.

Not even at a time when a just concluded research proved that self denial of glaring facts can reduce one’s lifespan by 20 years.
Why must you lie in her Name ... Is wike & 30 governors endorsement not enough

Why are desperately forcing nd coercing People to Laugh when they are suffering pain

You have 30 governors why falsify Oby into the mix ...Me i never see where govt dey follow people drag ...na people go praise govt but when govt result into self praises thats Market standard madness

Fashola did not force us to praise him neither did he result into self praising ...na ordinary lagosian carry am you must do 2nd term

I hope you heeded to Senator Kawus counsel before exhibiting hubris. PDP said more than this, even when Nigeria was experiencing some form of comfortability. Now that the economic situation has seriously worsened, the least the APC can do is to apologise for plunging the country into a vortex of crisis and not chest beating.
They are not counting on Election to Remain in govt ..these guy believe so much on Tinubu Rigging plans they term " strategist"

observe carefully ...the campaign is like whether Nigerians want or not Tinubu must continue 2nd term

It left to Nigerians ... If osun people did not rise APC would have won that state nd they will boast Tinubu is Almighty

Tinubu is transforming Nigeria, and some clowns want to send us back to the era of zero development.
Thunder is doing a warm-up for those political clowns.
Transforming Nigeria ...if we ask how una go dey shout Nelfund, macro economic, high revenue

How can nelfund be an achievement when 18m children are out of school in nigeria .. Fact check

Macro economic, ..how is that relevant in a country productivity & budget performance are reading Low

High Revenue, ...govt that claim to be making high revenue cant finance one budget to 60% and na the same govt borrow pass previous govt that paid subsidy
We now run 3 budget worst ever ... You dont have shame na ur problem be that

Racoon:
This is an administration that detonated the simultaneous trio of fuel-price, exchange-rate and cost-of-living shocks across a fragile economy, then watched millions become poorer. That is not reform. It is economic arson followed by propaganda about the ashes. Tinubu’s courtiers may clap because FAAC allocations have increased, but hungry Nigerians cannot boil FAAC figures for dinner.

Businesses cannot power factories with presidential speeches, workers cannot pay transport fares with macroeconomic grammar, and parents cannot settle school fees with statistics manufactured for State House applause. A government that grows richer while its citizens grow poorer is not reforming an economy. It is extracting from its people.

Nigerians should not expect meaningful change from an assemblage of individuals who had failed to provide solutions to the country’s worsening economic and security challenges.

So, how well and competent is the issue not how long with useless reforms that has no bearing to the endless sufferings of the common man. Bigotry, tribalism, and parochial ethno-religio-regional are the worst bane of Nigeria's development.
Have you notice the trend ... Normal it is the people that are suppose to be chanting Tinubu is the best after value U

But what we have seen so Far is the political class substituting the people .... tony elumelu don turn campaign DG ..we no longer queue at CBN 4 forex

Olofofo247ng:
Q: What would you do in the first two years of your second term?

President Tinubu gave the most brilliant response.

He wasn’t touching the host, he wasn’t repeating his name, and he wasn’t talking about what’s happening in another country. He answered the question directly.


Video:
For the sake of being Objective, How exactly did Tinubu answer a question that says what will you do in your 2nd term

i listened, He start off bragging you must do what you have to do regardless of " Pain" then he moved into stable naira stable economic

If your BP is stable at 200/140 6months will any doctor accept such "stable" sebi e stable carry go ☺️ undecided this are clear indications that Tinubu is living off whats tenable or acceptable

As usual He bragged about Nelfund again, as i speak there is no Stats or fact anywhere that as shown more children are back to school than 2023 becos of Nelfund
I keep telling data boiz, dont just shout nelfund, as it gotten more children back to school ideally

When are dey turning El Chapo Guzzman to an asset⁉️ I Guess he'll be d next Mexican President. I wonder why dey unalived Escobar, I guess dey wanted to make him Colombian President ⁉️
Those names you mentioned are the Druglord no. 1 they are useless for deals, DEA cut deals with middlemen, Cartel accountants or a gang member

So all d Italian Mafia drug barons later became presidents of Italy ⁉️
You got off on the wrong foot, next think b4 you talk

It's quite a shame dat adults can spew d kinda nonsense most of u spew out of blind hate and misguided rage against a precieved/programmed enemy.
I find it funny when i hear hate Tinubu, same Tinubu i voted for, same Tinubu i turned my car to campaign vehicle for, cheesy
You can't gaslight me, the records are there Tinubu had drugcase, he wasnt proven guilty neither was he stated innocent

I repeat i have watched so many Narcos real life story ... I can make a strong guess Tinubu cut deal with US, just like DEA cut deal with pablo escobar accountant ...

In d end it won't stop PBAT from becoming President just as d lie dat Buhari died and was replaced by a clone body double, didn't stop him from winning his reflection 2019.
your PBAT is already president .. you know the next music, everything that has time must come to an end


Instead of u to sell ur candidate to Nigerians and explain to Dem why u think he's better dan PBAT, u and ur fellow online Mob are here chasing shadows. Jisike Inugo 😁
Are you selling your own candidate, after four years, people see nothing tangible but what is Apc reponse ...we have 30 governors, no vacancy in aso rock, snatch it run with it ....is that selling ?

Absolutely true, and as a matter of fact, if KC Luxury plays ball the way this Chicago guy did by snitching and singing his way out before conviction, the same Feds will use him to pull down as many narco Lords as they can. They will definitely protect his records and possibly help him become Nigeria's President in the future.

Do not forget to remember that the current President of Nigeria is our version of Maduro.

The more you look.
What Arnold said makes absolute sense, having watch series of Narcos movies over the year,

FBI/DEA sometimes turn this arrested drugkin to asset, they give them witness protection and sometimes new identity to make dem go undetected

With Arnold we are not far from the truth

WizardOfNG:
"Mike Arnold's" obsession with Nigeria is fascinating but not surprising. Every drifter and layabout is looking for "projects" today in the social media age to gain virtue-signalling fame and prominence.

PBAT is President and about to complete his first term. "All eyes on the judiciary" did not prevent him leading as our President.

How will supposedly cash forfeiture, linked to a speculated drug case, Tinubu was never criminally convicted of now remove or disqualify him?

Opposition should get serious. Only the likes of Atiku and Obi can be excited about this nonsense because they never built political capacity, loyalists and useful mentees as Tinubu did over decades while planning patiently and meticulously to be President.

They failed to make hay while the sun was shinning because they are lazy and not talented at political leadership.

As "food is ready" politicians Atiku and Obi think they can land in Aso Rock via some disqualification technicality against PBAT. We dey laugh.
it is almost as you are reciting Gen 1 : 1 ... Was that necessary or must you comment

Arnold is trying to break down possibilities of recent FBi & us govt move ...so people understand the situation better

You are here reminding us Tinubu is president, Nigerians can not remove him

Fine ! you and your president die there nigba yen.

I remember he was struggling to pay 18k during Buhari, the Abia state civil servant will for ever be grateful to Tinubu if Otti is now paying current minimum wage
So your own take is it good they remove subsidy so states can pay salary

The effect of removing subsidy, the present inflation rate can that salary solve it ...

Where is the sense in taking away salary that can not cover basic needs .. You are collecting salary you can eat what you desire, you collect salary you cant afford transport to work daily .. Na life be that one undecided

In other words returning subsidy simply mean Dangote refinery will pack up and Nigeria will lose saved fx used in importation.

Reason why many are poor is not because they are not hardworking but it's because they have refused to use their common sense.
Oga what you dont know don't say ... 1st All subsidy is not Nigeria problem, corruption, opaqueness nd mismanagement are the cancers of subsidy

infact, subsidy with Dangote is the biggiest turn around, Dangote has verifiable data output and his distributions are transparent enough to be monitored ..

Just engage him on quota he supplies locally nd compute subsidy amount .. It is very eas to monitor dangote than Nnpc or criminals calling themselves marketers.

Dangote has what NNPC and Marketers dont have ... Transparent Systemic data report

You cant tell us subsidy is not sustainable nd you are giving Tax waviers in trillions to few macro businesses

Subsidy is not sustainable buh we see the ridiculous amount spend on renovating palaces, churches nd mosques so many ridiculous expenditure in the budget

Hemanwel:
In his victory speech, Adeleke thanked the president and reiterated his commitment to supporting him in the coming 2027 general elections.

I was startled to hear this. Wait! Is Adeleke saying Tinubu supported him to win the governorship elections against his APC party candidate, 'Ambo'? Why was he thanking and committing himself to supporting somebody who wanted to see him go down few hours before?

What about the Accord party members who have been killed, injured, and whatnot, and who tried to defend the onslaught of the Tinubu-controlled APC during the build-up to the elections?

So, it was no longer the people of Osun who saved Adeleke but Tinubu, right? This is the height of ingratitude by governor Ademola Adeleke!
I dont know what Osun people see in Adeleke, buh truth be told Adeleke is an embrassment

I was pissed myself you won an election nd the 1st person to thank is the president ...does it mean you dont believe power was with the Majority votes

Why i am not worry about Adeleke is that, he does not know Osun people enough ... they voted adeleke cos of luv for the Adelekes family that does not extend to telling osun people what to do, even Aregbesola could not force them

From '99 till 2023 Osun never voted for APC to win, in presidency

No he’s not.. The problem is ignorant Christians who supported Tinubu in 2023, and the blind ones that are still supporting him.

Some Christians from Ekiti, Benue and Ondo state, I hope you guys are enjoying this latest song right ?

These aforementioned states are Christian dominated states, yet how Tinubu won those states is what I can’t explain..

They rode on you guy’s back to rise, then they turned around and said you are nobody..
Maybe you shouldnt be a xtain cos i dont think you understand xtainity at All

When god said love thy neighbour as thy self, did it kum with a specification, busty fair yellow gurl or only xtains or only men with 6pack .. It just said love thy neighbour

If your neighbour is muslim, why won"t you luv your neighbour, and person you luv how is it wrong to vote for such person

I don't blame the Muslim extremist, becos of what is in their own Quran they are not as privileged as xtains to see better

Mind you, elections is coming Politicians are hiring them to use those religious card to divide us, jam our heads
They want xtains to react, they need the reactions to instigate the north against xtains that is the mission
