On a second thought, can we just give him the mandate to take it back to N160 = $1. Since he knew how he took it to N780, he should just please help us to take it back.

There was recession and covid. Oil fell to N30-50 per barrel and couldn’t cover its cost. customers were rejecting our vessels. It was our sole forex source being affected dt caused dt dramatic fall. Of course dt is also due to mismanagement of our resources over the years.

Omg electrocution! This is horrible na.

The former Head of State, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, has urged the newly-elected president, Bola Ahmed Tinubu to use his skills to address Nigeria’s economic challenges as soon as possible.

Babangida said this on Monday during an interview on Arise TV where he also congratulated the president, Tinubu and vice-president, Kashim Shettima.

IBB also described Tinubu as a skillful politician while urging him to reorganise the Nigerian Armed Forces (NAF) and galvanize the country’s economic heavyweights.

“Tinubu is a very skillful politician who needs to apply his skills to unite a very polarized nation,” Babangida said.

“He must galvanize Nigeria’s economic heavyweights, home and abroad, to address the economy of the nation and reposition the armed forces.

“As Commander-in-Chief, he needs to take a good look at the armed forces to reorient them, retrain them and reorganize them because the armed forces have undergone a lot of processes that need to be put together and make them more efficient.”

Babangida urged Nigerians to be patient with the new administration of Tinubu.

He stressed that Tinubu needs to be able to unite Nigeria, expressing the view that the nation has some of the best brains that he can tap from to revamp every sector including the military.

Babangida urged Tinubu to become a president for all Nigerians as he takes over the mantle of leadership of the country.

“I wish the new administration well. Let them put Nigeria first, and the welfare of Nigerians should be paramount. Leadership at all levels is missing,” the former Head of State said.

“The only advice is to be patient and continue to support the new government, but if they see things going wrong, they should cry out as usual, but be objective about it.”

It's either they probably cleared him later or he went to another section of the arena.

We saw a video of how Soludo was bounced by some guy who probably was a DSS agent.

So moving someone to a different section than the direction they were heading means the place is not VIP?

Danisaint112:
Damage control. We know what happened.

He was being directed to his right sit.

The person dt posted the picture, posted the exact same photo wt him sat next to Oyebanji. The guy obviously didn’t know dt was Ekiti governor. They were calling him Dayo israel (APC youth leader)in their comments.

These were the initial lies on twitter that went viral and got carried by blogs.

The allegation that the Anambra State Governor, Soludo, was denied entry to the VIP section at the inauguration was going viral on twitter and claimed in this article. https://www.nairaland.com/7707771/tinubus-inauguration-ganduje-soludo-denied

It has however been debunked as fake on twitter. The Governor of Anambra State was in fact directed to the VVIP section and can be seen sitted next to other governors, with the Ekiti Governor, Oyebanji, right beside him. Emefiele and Tony Elumelu behind him and Dangote on the same row as him.

This iS a big fat lie. Fake news already debunked on twitter. He was sitting wt other governors and on the same row as Dangote. So moving someone to a different section than the direction they were heading means the place is not VIP? Isn’t this Soludo at the event, sitting close to dangote?

Also Bashir Ahmad NEVER posted anything about Ganduje on his social media. He has been posting all about Buhari throughout today. What kind of fake news is this with no proof anywhere?

Seefinish:
If not because of him all of us will still be watching NTA and listening to Radio Nigeria.
He was a great man

AIT also greatly developed our music industry. The young American returnees Kenny Ogugbe and Dayo D1 made Nigerian music cool. Every Friday every young person was glued to their TV show.

No meat?

sukkot:
tasted sickly like it was badly put together concoction with a hint of sugar too . It's like what a bunch of university students will prepare in their dorm. Just straight up weird tasting trash . Oh ermm nah I ain't no food critic oo lmaoooo

She's probably not the one cooking there, cos her jollof rice apparently won in a competition against Ghana jollof. She needs to teach her workers properly.

Pakman:
Sanusi lamido is a better fit for that seat. When he was there he always burst the bubble of those self-serving northern elites and politicians.

I know the Emir seat is SLS life dream because of the way his father was exiled. But he’s too educated and opinionated for that post tbh.

If the Ooni of Ife was commenting on politicians policies in the SW, knowing he has influence with the people, politicians would have an issue wt him too and tell him to focus on his duties. Ecspecially if one person thinks it’s favoring his opponent, even if he’s just being factual. Let’s be honest.

Ajisebioyolaari:
Hmmmm....Kano politics

My own be say 2015-2023 is different from 2023-2031. For every GBAS, there must a corresponding GBOS. Yorubas are not Northerners that you lots can bully online and on media spaces without getting an equal and appropriate rebuttal. If you love us, we love you. If you hate us, we hate you. If you yab us, we yab you. If you support us, we support you. Ceteris Paribus

Okay. I’m a Yoruba supporting BAT but You sound like a broken record now. Be knowing when to post repitive propaganda. The one youve done for today don reach.

Ruger was a prophet.

Ganduje knows their plan for him and the new Emir today. Na why e run go Abuja. “No be me una go boo for television” 🏃🏿

It’s good to always think of tomorrow in all you do.

Fake news. No average citizen was invited to the vicinity of that venue.
Even top “wealthy” APC officials were angry they didn’t get invites.

Chai.
See red caps everywhere. Na why Ganduje no gree show up. “No be me una go stone”.

He must have told the organizers, abeg remove one screw from dt podium.

He keeps using church money to buy presidential ticket and never wins any party’s ticket. E reach to have effect.

Chai Ganduje see ur life outside. First to do no Dey pain.

Just siddon for Abuja, no enter Kano o.😀 Your head will end up on a spike. (There definitely should be a head-on-spike emoji).

dondodo:
Like if you believe obi is coming

Inside his wife?

This Ganduje vs Kabir/Kwakwanso/Elrufai/SLS war in Kano will be something.
Tinubu has to tread carefully not to fully support anyone against the other or messing wt their Emir traditions.

This new governor is ready to rain down fire on Ganduje. I expect all the claims Emir SLS accused Ganduje of will be fully investigated and prosecuted by this new government. Chai.
Ganduje better just siddon inside asorock wt tinubu make dem no arrest am. First to do no Dey pain. The pepper dem don plan ehn.

Tinubu is a PPP expert unlike Obasanjo and Atiku. He is far wiser than Obasanjo and Atiku combined. Just wait and see the idan that Tinubu is bringing out to save Nigeria. I am very much hopeful that Nigeria will soon catch up with the developed world.

Be calming down. His first test is the subsidy removal coming up this week. It’s a make or break challenge for his presidency.

chidiokay:
I see Nigeria going Capitalist Full blown ...

Oh yes. Tinubu is definitely a Capitalist with a capital C.

Just like Obasanjo. He believes in the private sector dts why all those bankers are his friends. From SLS to Tony Elumelu to Herbert Wigwe. I am sure just like Obasanjo he will privatize anything privatizable. Those refineries obj privatized would have been working now if yaradua didn’t reverse the sale.

The story has been told several times of how Dangotes rich uncle, of the wealthy Dantata family borrowed the billionaire $3000 to start his business in the 80s.
Aminu Dantata (Head of the Dantata clan) was present at Tinubu’s inaugural dinner last night to everyones surprise as he is hardly seen at events.

It will be recalled that Tinubu, along with several governors paid the elderly businessman a visit in Kano some years ago: https://www.nairaland.com/6862817/tinubu-bows-greet-aminu-dantata

One with God is majority! There will be providence!

SESS in the mud. SS leaders are wiser dn u guys and are not hateful pple, dts just the fact. No wonder Timaya and Iyanya were making fun of u at dt concert. They’re close to these guys & know their people get leg for this government. Keep insulting everybody for the next 4 years as you’ve bn doing since 2015. Please don’t stop. We expect the same result.

I saw this today. I said na full front page this guy collect o.



Tinubu doesn’t want militants to disturb his presidency, he don promise them they’ll continue pipeline contract. Na dem get the oil so dey must get the contract.

The Rwandan Presidency has announced that President Paul Kagame has arrived in Nigeria to witness the inauguration of Bola Tinubu as President.

Tinubu is scheduled to be inaugurated on Monday, May 29, and succeed incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari, who has spent eight years in office.

Presidency Rwanda on its official Twitter handle on Sunday announced, “President Kagame has arrived in Abuja, Nigeria, where he will attend the swearing-in ceremony of President-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT alongside other Heads of State from around the world.”

Hello! I could do 3x the roads Adeleke has done.

It’s very easy to replicate and duplicate substandard jobs.

People just want to see a black road, they don’t care about standards, quality , or even if it gets washed away next rainy season.

The likes of Adeleke are only building wealth on the illiteracy and inexposure of their people.

Adeleke won’t tell my mind he constructed roads, he will pay me if I voice cos he knows I know the truth.

Stop supporting what’s not!

Everything u just posted is fact.

Anyone dt knows roads, knows all those roads are very poor quality and won’t last. The first time the road pictures came up on twitter, a lot of engineers were talking about it and laughing.

I mean it’s not a bad thing to cover mud or potholes wt ashphalt, but hyping it like it’s a real road is a problem.
If that’s what Osun can afford for those internal villages, dts okay, but we have gone past this level of road in SW states.

E don use the remaining money build house , send him children abroad, buy car for aides and carry girlfriends. Nothing else to commission.
