Tomorrow dey go still deny say dey talk am

Which of the Gods? Is it Allah, the God that he worships or the Christian God which he doesn't believe in?
And if I dare ask, WHICH GREAT COUNTRY WAS BUILT WITH PRAYERS AND FAITH INSTEAD OF VISIONARY LEADERSHIP AND HARD WORK?

OBY EZEKWESILI OPENS UP.
I still find it funny that most people
don't know why Nigeria economy
went into recession, they love the
incompetent lies of Lai Mohammed
about the past government ruining
everything. It's also myopic to think
that if Jonathan were to still be in
power, we would be worse off.
The truth about Nigeria's recession
is this; it was caused by the
president's unguided rhetoric and
uncultured body language.
Firstly, there is nothing we are
buying today that we weren't buying
5 years ago, therefore it's not our
purchase that put pressure on Naira
but withdrawal of funds by foreign
investors.
After the election, the president
created instability with his unguided
statements about how everyone is
corrupt and how everyone is going to
jail. The instability made foreign
investors to liquidate their
investment and change their money
to dollars. In the process of trying to
flee, they were willing to buy dollars
at any price, which lead to high
exchange dollar rate.
Even though some of them were not
ready to run away, but want their
money in dollars to save their
investments from devaluation, the
president gave a bad signal by
banning deposit of foreign currency
into dormiciliary accounts. That was
enough for free market believers to
see the draconian handwriting on
the wall, that was the beginning of
dollar rush.
To make matters worse, the
president came up with another
outrageous policy of rationing dollar
to certain sectors and blocking many
sectors out. That was the nail in the
coffin which facilitated the
emergence of free FALL.
In the end, foreign investors took
over $80B out of the economy within
a short period and everything went
down to free fall.
To those who believe it will be worse
if Jonathan is still there, you are all
wrong. Policy continuity and political
stability will not let billions of
dollars leave our shores within such
tiny time frame. Even though the
government might have income
shortage, the private sector will
weather the storm by their
confidence in the market.
The fear of the unknown created by
PMB is responsible for the economic
downturn not low oil price. Interest
rate in America is currently at 0.5%
while it is 12% in Nigeria. JP Morgan
Chase will not mind borrowing $50
billion from Feds at 0.5 and put in
Nigeria for return of %2000 profit.
Citi bank will do the same, likewise
US Bank Corp. Chase gave Buhari
warning about the repercussions of
his fixing policy before they pulled
out, but his illiterate cyber warriors
and misseducated e-soldiers said
JPMORGAN can go to hell, they no
longer believe in economic metrics
since their messiah is in charge.
Funny enough they are all suffering
today because of the stupid policy,
but they find relief by blaming it on
past administration and Gucci
appetite of average Nigerians.
For your information, if your
president "kontunu" with his
unguided rhetoric, Naira will go
down to N1000/1 $. But we thank
God, he is no longer talking.

One of the "a thousand ways to die".
At 70, he just conveniently got himself a heart attack

Welcome to the dark age.
All the things we thought were impossible to happen again in this country have been a a daily occurrence since the last 2years.
Everything has really CHANGED

Ok.
Till we hear directly from them.
This govt of Lie Mohammed has lost our trust since 1860

Farooq Kperogi updated:

Here is a counter to the claim that Buhari met an "empty treasury." Let's read the rebuttal of the Buhari apologists:

"Buhari was handed over:
– $30 billion in our Foreign Reserves,
– $2.5 billion Sovereign Wealth Fund,
– $1.4 billion in the ECA,
– $4.65 billion back taxes from NLNG.
– Buhari met an approved budget of N4.5trillion

Buhari received within a year:
– $2.7 billion collected by Inland Revenue in his first 8 months.
– $2.1 billion world bank loan.
– $850 million Grants from UK, USA and Europe.
– 1.5 trillion saved from fuel subsidy removal
– Excluding crude oil sales, Joint Venture profits, Royalties, Income from Customs, NIMMSA, NPA, NACHO ……
– 3 trilion on STA
not to include the “recovered” looted funds.

More than a year has passed:
1] Not a kilometer of road constructed,
2] Not a watt of Electricity generated,
3] Not a ward added to any Hospital in Nigeria.
4] Not a job space created, except the CBN job he shared with his cronies.
5] Not a grain of corn or tomato seed was provided to farmers. [Fertilizer subsidy taken away and handed back to ex-military men] 6] 41 foreign companies mostly in service industry have left Nigeria
7] 4.3 Million jobs lost in 10 months – National Bureau of Statistics.
8] Food scarcity last experienced in Nigeria between 1983 to 1985 returned.
9] War on Corruption turned into war against his perceived enemies. Convictions by EFCC were cases meticulously started by previous govt(s). Buhari wins cases only on the pages of Newspapers.
10] Nigeria dropped from No.1 Investment destination in Africa to No.27 before South Sudan.
11] Africa's Biggest economy shrank from a GDP of about 7% to -0.36%, the fastest decline in the world since record began.
12] No.3 fastest growing economy in the world to No.83 in 365 days.

And I wonder why the president keeps giving the impression that the country is broke. The problem is not lack of funds, but lack of qualified individuals in the government."

By Umeh Ik Emmanuel

Ok

Just like APC has collapsed after effectively losing Tinubu.
This man should not allow sycophants to push him down the precipice of megalomania like the yorubas did to their Jagaban.
What has he even achieved in his state up till now ?

Quite a pity that Tinubu wasn't even mentioned in all the listed political equations at the federal level

How many times are you going to win that war sef ?

When is Cossy Orjiakor doing her own surgery?

Yes ! Be patient while we cook up new excuses.....

Tinubu just received another uppercut

AND SENSIBLE NIGERIANS ALSO KNOW THAT BUHARI RULED NIGERIA TWICE AND HAS PLUNGED NIGERIAINTO RECESSION TWICE. PLEASE KINDLY COOK UP A LIE OR EXCUSE FOR THE FIRST RECESSION

ddippset:
.sensible Nigerians know why there is recession. sensible Nigerians know that a recession cannot happen under 2 years. sensible Nigerians know that Nigeria had been sliding into recession since the last 3 or 4 years. sensible Nigerians know that the bad economy had been shielded and shock absorbed by the huge inflow from oil which sold at 140 dollars for very long. sensible Nigerians know that with militancy and oil selling below 40 dollars in a completely oil based economy, even 1 million magicians couldn't escape the recession let alone a pmb. sensible Nigerians know that its gonna take nothing less than 4 or 5 years to start witnessing slightly improvement in a country of 200 million people which had being looted to stupor and where corruption has been a way of life for over 30 years. sensible Nigerians have just spoken in ondo.

An open and closed case.
The mother sheep lamented that any mother like her who has a ram as a son should consider herself childless...... because a ram never stops ramming females until it gets lost for good.

Another wash-wash. These distractions and decoys will no longer work.
We remain focused on what you are doing to save the economy.
This government's obsession with media manipulation is reaching its expiry date despite the number of media aides & paid internet agents whose hourly jobs is to vomit on, defecate on or derail any news that is unfavorable to them.

To even imagine that the person who deliberately lied about that is PMB's special assistant shows how much we are being deliberately misinformed by this bumbling govt.
Imagine what could have happened if that German didn't alert everyone on this lie? We would have been flooded with the news of PMB attracting another $18b to naija because of his uprightness and incorruptible nature and maybe his global acceptance. It would have been a delicacy for the ZOMBIES

How can we believe you at this moment, when it was very clear last to anyone with a drop of Grey matter that they were quarreling but you people turned it into another media propaganda: by lying and denying it all till it became too obvious to hide.
You guys thought it was another media gymnastics ?
Sorry ! Too late, because the birds have already flown.
As far as we are concerned Tinubu and PMB are still in good terms and very inseparable. After all, that's the media junk that you have been feeding the zombies for close to 18months now.

Are they supposed to declare defeat before clearing or clear before declaring defeat ?
Because this clearing and consequent reprisal attacks by BH has been ongoing for over a year now and......make I no talk sha

The post below is from another platform .Not my personal opinion but that of the writer who is a well respected SAN,and a popular lawyer/ supporter of the government in many high profile tussles in the past.
The information is better taken-in dispassionately for its message to sink.

BUHARI AND APC Benefit from Judicial Manipulation and Technicality
•noise on Judiciary, a hypocritical pretence
◆◇◆◇◆◇○○●◆●◆○◇◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆

"Some people don’t know and some pretend not to know that law has its technicalities-both civil and criminal proceedings.
.
They talk of technicalities and say that lawyers delay cases, look, without being immodest; I have been involved in a lot of cases in this country.
.
I have defended a lot of people.
.
During the run-up to the 2015 elections, I was one of the lawyers hired on pro bono basis to defend the All Progressives Congress and its candidate, Muhammadu Buhari.
.
We employed all the tactics available, employable and allowable in the legal profession; why didn’t they blame us then?
.
If we didn’t, the election would not have held. If you do that today, some people, even within the profession, will blame you.
.
I know what I’m talking about.
.
The election was to hold on a Saturday and Justice Gabriel Kolawole of the Federal High Court, Abuja, said he was going to deliver his judgement on whether or not card readers should be used by the Independent National Electoral Commission on Thursday, two days to the election.
.
We filed preliminary objection, he overruled it.
.
I was in court with Lateef Fagbemi (SAN), Akin Olujinmi (SAN), and Kola Awodein, (when) Asiwaju Bola Tinubu sent an aircraft to pick me in Akure, saying that if we were not in court, the election would not hold.
.
There are things that need to be unveiled in this country.
.
Tinubu, Babatunde Fashola (former Lagos State Governor), the Vice President (Prof. Yemi Osinbajo), Lai Mohammed, the AGF (Abubakar Malami) were in the know. And Kolawole overruled us.
.
Then he called the plaintiff and said, can you go ahead with originating summons?
.
I will deliver my judgement tomorrow.
.
Like someone who was possessed, I rose up and said I was applying for stay of proceedings.
.
Then the other lawyer interjected and asked for my formal application.
.
I gave him two authorities offhand that I could apply orally.
.
That was two days to the election. Kolawole said well, whatever it is; I would want to listen to you.
.
He listened to me.
.
We did it pro bono in the sense that the APC hasn’t paid us.
.
Nobody even wrote a letter to say thank you.
.
Then thereafter, he wrote a ruling and granted stay of proceedings 48 hours to the election.
.
The Supreme Court later held that, though the card reader was a good innovation, it was not yet in the law.
.
Would Buhari have been President if we had not done that?
.
What could be more technical than that?
.
They filed action against Buhari, we looked at it; we raised objections and we were dragging that.
.
Is that not technicality?
.
And some people will now accuse me when I do it for other people that I’m defending looters.
.
But when you do it for them, it is right; that is double standard.
.
And what baffles me is that some high lawyers, who should know better, also accuse some lawyers of defending looters?
.
To hell with anybody who has looted the treasury.
.
I believe in my profession and I thank God for what I am.
.
I am a fulfilled person and don’t want any position from any government, but then government should allow those of us who are privately engaged to do our work.
.
In our offices in Lagos and Abuja, we have over 75 members of staff- professionals and supporting staff.
.
We pay more than what the government pays and don’t owe workers.
.
A cleaner in my office earns far more than what government calls minimum wage.
.
And when you say someone is a looter, who is a looter?
.
Anybody who loots will have his day in court and God will punish looters, but at the same time, judge not, so that you are not judged. And let the accused person defend himself.
.
All religions give room for fair hearing.
.
I grew up to know that when people came to my father to settle disputes, he would say ‘e je ko so tie, agba ti o gbo ejo enikan dajo, agba osika ni’ (let him say his side of the story; an elder who bases his judgement on only one side of the story is wicked).
I grew up to know that.
.
So you don’t want people to be heard?
.
If that is the case, change the constitution.
.
So once someone is accused, he is arrested and taken to prison.
.
Then, abolish the courts.
.
That is my position.
.
And what goes around comes around.
.
You may be the accuser today, tomorrow; it may be your turn to face accusations.
.
Let the law take its course.
.
It is tyrannical, dictatorial and smacks of militarism when you start accusing lawyers who defend people.
.
You cannot have democracy without free speech and people having access to courts.
.
You cannot be the accuser, the lawyer and the judge.
.
They say lawyers and judges delay the prosecution of looters, then if they have already been adjudged looters, don’t prosecute them.
.
It is only a court of law that can come to the conclusion that someone has looted the treasury after evidence has been produced."- Buhari, also a beneficiary of legal technicalities
–Wole Olanipekun (SAN)

Please we don't need that chicken change. Since he took over the presidency, Buhari has recovered close to 11trillion naira which we all saw in the Media. What's a mere $1.3b when we already have about N11trn to play around with?
Abi na lie de govt been de lie all this while ?

She's igbo because she bears Beatrice and her husband who is from Adamawa suddenly also became igbo. The contents of the news had to be sacrificed so as to emphasize her tribe which is the only tribe that bears Beatrice.
Is there something else about this propaganda that I don't get?
Anyway, let me keep my Peace

Good showmanship

Why does the figure keep changing?
Who is lying here ?

Abeg show us what BUBU will look like as a striper

I don't know but something tells me the pastor should also be arrested for AIDING & ABETTING

So Kachikwu/APC is now OPEC that determines when to cut oil production and when not to?
We must all be fools going by the way this govt views us and the way it dishes out propaganda for us to swallow
