Small, jobless children posting rubbish.

Guide777:
Until he becomes! Right now , worry about the one you have on the saddle.

Wrong. As the elders say, a you can tell a good cockerel from the day it is hatched.

Atiku cannot be living a life of stolen wealth and luxury in Dubai and tell Tinubu anything about “Made in Nigeria”.

He needs to shut his corrupt, filthy PDP looter lips.

ProudlyLagos:
but the Agulu packaged fraud without any achievements and legacy in tiny Anambala have something to offer this country right? Dey play

Peter Obi has lots of breweries to offer Nigeria.

Plus daily lessons on how Bangladesh is heaven.

Guide777:
Atiku is not your President!

But he wants to be.

ceejayluv:
What do you mean by sweating it out? Nigerian made cars no get AC? Atiku is clearly out of touch with realities.

Exactly. That “sweat it out” statement alone shows Atiku’s low IQ and shallow thinking.

He reasons like a child.

malali:
250 million people and all the cars are imported.

Not even a single assembling plant in Nigeria.

School dropout.

There are 58 car manufacturing plants in Nigeria.

Forum of empty heads.

Know ur history and stop fooling urself... blacks that commited crimes centuries ago were sold into slavery.... they were first imprisoned b4 being sold ...blacks also sold stubborn people, traitors and efulefus...they sold kidnapped people as well...but among themselves until the Whites came and decided to buy from them... slave trade was in existence on Africa b4 the white man came ... the Whites were also the ones that enforced the stop of slave trade in Africa an over 2000 white men lost their live trying to stop it ... Africans dint wanna stop the trade

You are a liar. Which ''2,000 white men'' died to stop the trade? What? They suddenly turned to angels after centuries of throwing your ancestors off the ships in mid-sea to lessen the weight in storms?

After centuries of feeding black babies to crocodiles in America?

White worshipping air head.

omonnakoda:
On the individual level the farmer is making money but at a strategic level Government needs to pay attention

e.g India puts in place export bans on rice because of the food security of their people

Today a lot of Chinese companies in Nigeria buy cassava which they use to make ethanol for export

That is cassava that does not end up in our plates
The effect . Less cassava for garri. Higher prices of garri

These companies are often state backed with cheap loans whilst interest rates in Nigeria are nearly 30%


We do not understand international trade and geopolitics

For me there is nothing to celebrate in this in is not in our national interest.
We have no control over cocoa prices and are vulnerable to shocks
We are excluded from the chocolate industry and need to think Nigeria first

Using our land for Cocoa is not the best use of our land if we cannot participate in the chocolate side

The same thing applies to Lithium we export unprocessed lithium when we should be making batteries which is exploding in demand
We are loading our jobs on those containers of cocoa

Nigeria does not export unprocessed lithium.

At least one lithium battery factory has been established, with more in the pipeline.

GanagiBitrus:
You really think a black Jesus would have made such impact & commanded such large followership in a white man's land?

Do you know that black Africans ruled large parts of Europe for 800 years up till the 15th century?

Have you heard of the Moors?

The Moors were black West Africans who invaded Spain and the rest of Europe in 711, and dragged Europe out of her Dark Ages and into their 'Renaissance', which was the springboard for the Industrial Revolution. The Moors introduced paper to Europe, introduced the compass from China, invented the astrolabe for navigation, and built the first universities there.

If you want your prayers answered, stop imagining a white man in your head when you are praying to Jesus.

They don't.

Godfullsam:
At least fuel was affordable

At least foods and other essential commodities were affordable

At least the exchange rate was ok

At least hunger not this terrible

All based on borrowing 10 billion dollars a year for fuel subsidy.

Nigeria's annual budget is around 30 billion dollars. Tiny money for her population.

South Africa's annual budget is 120 billion dollars.

How can Nigeria grow spending 10 billion dollars a year on fuel subsidies, from such a small income?

It's like a man who earns N200,000 a month, and is planning to build a better life for his family, maybe even a house, but is spending N70,000 on transport every month. Common sense dictates that he must find a way to cut that expenditure.

cr7lomo:
Whites that make up 70% of world population will go extinct?? Guy ubare delusional

Whites make up less than 16% of the world population.

You have been brainwashed by their media to think they are ''70%''.

bazoodo:
Until black people understand that no white person loves you African will never love forward. A white man already has a complex seeing a black man successful. The Asians have successfully caged then but Africans keep been puppets in the hands of these people. They are so happy sewing African graduates become caregivers - glorified houseboats and house girls to their aged ones. What a shame

This is why I reject christianity and islam. The same animals forced it on us after massacring our ancestors.

Imagine murderous demons bringing 'God' to you.

A ''holy book''.

None of you following those religions knows who God is, or what ''holy'' means.

AI will end corruption and mismanagement in Nigeria.

Give it 3 to 5 years, max.

The direction the world is going, with AI, means that everything, including governance, will increasingly be AI-driven, as the technology is further developed and expanded.

It’s inescapable.

Good one.

Vision is needed.

Nigeria is not like Ghana with 25 million people, whose power issue can be solved with 1 or 2 power plants.

By 2045 Nigeria, currently at 250 million people, will be over 400 million in population, so we need a comprehensive plan to power the entire nation.

The beautiful stadium Nigerians forgot.

Why must every match be played in Uyo when we have a beautiful stadium like this in Benin?

.................

''A member of the Edo State Sports Commission, who also pleaded anonymity... told The Guardian that the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium is in top shape and capable of hosting any international match.

He said that Nigerians should ask the NFF why it has not presented the Sam Ogbemudia Stadium for consideration, adding: “The Ogbemudia Stadium’s grass is second to none…It is the only stadium in Nigeria with effective VAR facilities.


CAF approved the stadium when Bendel Insurance played in the continent and the place was commended by Moroccans when they came to play there. The stadium used to host Nigerian games, but all we hear now is that Godswill Akpabio Stadium is the only one fit to host CAF games.”

Also speaking on the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, Chairman, of Edo State Sports Commission, Desmond Amadin Enabulele, affirmed that the facility is one of the best in the West African sub-region, saying that it has not hosted national team games because nobody has pushed for that.

https://www.theoasisreporters.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Ogbe-Stadium-new-007.jpg

He said: “The first thing we want to do is to get the NFF to host Super Falcons games in Benin so that everybody will see the fantastic state of the facility. We are among the few stadiums in Nigeria from where matches can be broadcast live because of the state-of-the-art facility and our pitch is as good as those you can see in Europe.''

When the NFF or CAF comes to inspect our facilities, this issue of being a one-stadium nation will end.”

id4sho:
Only if this will be implemented 💯

Do you know what an Executive Order is?

Of course it will be implemented.

It's now the law. And it's easy to spot a breach.

The work or project to be done is not on the moon. It's happening here on ground.

So everybody will see what's happening.

It's time for Nigerian firms to rise to the occasion.

Fantastic.

This is exactly how you grow an economy.

Keep the spending in-house.

Stop the capital flight.

Excellent development.

Qadaffi2idiamin:
So if this is an exam you would write this trash?

Telephones? What has tinubu as president done for two solid years in power?

The refineries are not working.

The federal roads are death trap due to poor state and insecurity.

The industrial power line most states paid for in the past are only fed to Lagos, Ogun and elsewhere leaving most industrial hubs to the South and East.

I can go on... look at the Fiscal monetary policies Tinubu runs, it's like kindergarten playback.

What is wrong with all of you young people? These guys are like the Nazis, they'll come back to hurt you for real if you continue supporting their ills.

Get a life, YOU GRUMZY!!

You are the one that is not using your brain.

How does this garbage you wrote compare to the primitive conditions of 1960?

Have you ever walked miles into a village via footpath at night with snakes?

That was daily life for majority of Nigerians in 1960, and you are here yarning about “refineries”, “federal roads“ and “Nazis”.

Did your village palmwine tapper grandpa under colonial rule know what a ‘refinery’ or ‘federal road’ was?

Ajebota.

You better be careful Rwanda. Go and study African history.

You will invite them and before you know it, they will start causing trouble for you..

Akinwumi Adeshina ajebota doesn’t know his colonial history.

In 1960 Nigeria had only one full-fledged university. University of Nigeria, Nsukka.

Compared to nearly 300 universities today.

Literacy rate was 10% or less, compared to 78% today.

Malnutrition was rife and children walked around naked in the villages.

Today, even the people we call poor, dress sharp and carry smartphones.

In 1960, cars were for the super rich. Roads few and far between.

Footpaths, not roads - not even ‘bad roads’ - but footpaths - led to your village.

Bicycle was a sign that you’re made.

Electricity was zero. British imported industrial generators powered colonial areas like Ikoyi and GRAs across the country.

The rest of Nigeria was on candlelight and lanterns till 1964 when Prime Minister Tafawa commissioned Nigeria’s first power plant, Kainji Dam.

If you chucked Adeshina into 1960s Nigeria, he would cry for mummy in 2025 Nigeria.

Onanuga faults Adesina’s assessment of Nigeria’s progress since independence
5th May 2025

Vanguard

…………..

Presidential aide Bayo Onanuga has faulted recent claims by outgoing African Development Bank President Akinwumi Adesina that Nigerians are worse off today than they were in 1960, describing the assertion as “based on figures that do not align with available data.”

In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday, Onanuga argued that Adesina’s comparison of Nigeria’s GDP per capita in 1960 and 2025 was flawed and misleading.

“According to Nairametrics, he claimed that Nigeria’s GDP per capita in 1960 was $1,847 and that it is $824 today. The quoted figures are not correct,” he wrote.

He cited data showing that Nigeria’s GDP in 1960 was $4.2 billion, with a population of 44.9 million, putting per capita income at just $93.

“Ninety-three, not even one hundred dollars,” he emphasised.


Onanuga further noted that Nigeria’s economic growth only began to rise significantly in the 1970s due to oil revenue.

“Our country’s GDP did not rise remarkably until the 1970s, when crude earnings ballooned. In 1970, our GDP rose to $12.55 billion.

In 1975, it was $27.7 billion, $64.2 billion in 1980, and $164 billion in 1981. Up until 1980, per capita income did not exceed $880.

It rose to $2187 in 1981 and dropped to $1844 in 1982,” he said, adding that it reached a peak of $3,200 in 2014 after a GDP rebasing.

He questioned Adesina’s data sources, stating, “These facts raise questions about the source of Dr. Adesina’s figures.”

Beyond the figures, Onanuga said the real issue was the conclusion drawn from them.

“GDP per capita is not the only criterion used to determine whether people live better lives now than in the past. Indeed, it is a poor tool for assessing living standards,” he stated.

He argued that GDP masks economic realities such as wealth distribution, informal economic activity, and quality of life indicators.

“GDP per capita is silent on whether Nigerians in 2025 enjoy better access to healthcare, education, and transportation, such as rail and air transport than in 1960,” he added.

Highlighting the digital revolution, Onanuga recalled that in 1960, Nigeria had only 18,724 telephone lines for about 45 million people.

Today, over 200 million Nigerians have access to mobile and digital services.

“Does this MTN experience correlate with a country worse off than in 1960, when we had analogue telephones and the number of lines was fewer than 20,000?” he asked, referencing MTN’s N1 trillion revenue and 84 million users in Q1 2025.

He also criticised Adesina for what he described as a politically motivated statement.

“Adesina spoke like a politician, in the mould of Peter Obi, and did not do due diligence before making his unverifiable statement,” he said.

Onanuga concluded that Nigeria’s current economic scale is unrecognisable compared to the 1960s.

“Today, as we await the NBS’s recalibration of our GDP, we can comfortably say without contradiction that it is at least 50 times, if not 100 times, more than it was at Independence.”

Village Headmaster was the best.

Heard NTA lost many of the episodes. Shame.

Good gracious!

I’m so tired of hearing of this Natasha of a woman.

What exactly is the problem with this woman?

What does she want?

Kajaard:
Lol , this is even a very neat market by NIGERIAN STANDARDS

That means if she goes to markets like Oshodi or Mushin she will just faint

Those areas are not rough like before, man.

ChatterboxNg:
I don't think rubbing salt on a festering wound will make it to heal.
However bad she is to her mother country, we should not turn our back on her to the point of seeing her disgraced out of office as Tory leader. Rather we should feel her pain for the walloped defeat her party suffered at the elections and wish her a good outing next time.
She may still be friendly to Nigeria, her country of birth someday.
A o ni le omo buburu fun ekun pa a je!

Abeg…the girl is not intelligent. She’s no leader. I’ve no idea what they saw in her to put her there.

She’s a buffoon.

APCNig:
Nigerian Witches Association (NIWA) don open book reach her case

🤣🤣🤣

Samajogs:
Her village people dey on top her matter now, seriously debating. I pity her

Well, I’m sure her village people must have also been wondering, how the girl just got to London and started abusing all of us, just to gain power there. The child that pointed to her father’s house with the left hand.
