The truth is that if our own country was good and everything was working, nobody would care about what an American president had said or has to say.......

Make African presidents and leaders try fix up our continent so that we won't have to bother about whatever impact Trump's laws may have on the rest of the world 🖕

Exactly💯 Every wailing Wailers can goan die...........we don't care, what we care about is the positive growth and Transformation of our beautiful country. President Tinubu will make sure of that.

Nefort:
Is it really possible to rig an election when 70% of voters voted against you? I am not saying Tinubu will get 30% votes. But would it be easy to rig an election when people massively vote against you?

Nefort:
I am sorry to inform you that Tinubu is now weaker than he was in 2023. It is very much easier to beat him now due to the current economic difficulties.

First of all, it is deeply concerning the change in rhetoric that occurs when the teeth of otherwise intelligent and resourceful professional are set on corn. The kind of gibberish that starts to flow is a sign that the corn being offered on a platter is indeed of the fermented stock. It intoxicates the gobbler with a resultant effect that's comparable with that of the famed 40 year whiskey.

That said, I find it insulting to Nigerians and their hardwork and intelligence when people make this silly narratives of fake life or window-dressed realities. This is more so when the people who make these kind of condescending statements are those who have benefited maximally from the society and have not ploughed back what can be said to be commensurate with what they've accrued for themselves from the proverbial cake.

Imagine a situation where a man who after enjoying the benefits of the high office of governor, and while leaving office makes a law that enables him to continue to enjoy the perks of that same office perpetually as if he were still an occupant.

Not only that, choice properties are allocated to him by him. He then turns around to accuse others of living a fake life.

Ditto this particular case as well. A man who was called to rewrite tax laws which will ensure more money goes to the political elites to fund their excesses and lifestyle both in and out of office turns round to accuse others of window dressing their realities.

I make bold to say Nigerians are among the most deprived yet hopeful and hardworking on the surface of the earth.

The average Nigerian has no social infrastructure or welfare system to fall back on in time of crisis save for a strong family structure.

The average Nigerian farmer works with the least of tools. Yet he's been asked to produce crops to feed the populace and export as well.

The average mechanic works with the basic of tools.
Yet he's expected to drive innovation in technology.

Same for the average carpenter bricklayer, tailor etc. No program to empower such hardworking Nigerians exist.

Rather, they are dumped on the lowest rung of the ladder and left alone to climb or drown while getting talked down on if they ask for a reprieve.

The UK spends 25% of its budget on social welfare and infrastructure. In countries like Saudi which are oil producing like Nigeria, home ownership is a right.

Shall we speak of countries like Norway where unemployment benefits sometimes exceed employment income for the citizens.

Nigerian leaders and elites are among the most corrupt and wasteful in the world. Yet, they hardly take responsibility for how the country has turned out on their watch. They are a bunch of greedy taskmasters who believe in being unquestionable and unquestioned.

Akintola - the man that coined the word Yoruba RONU

Many years ago, after Igbos have dominated most of the Nigeria government works, the west & the north didn't actually care. Then the Igbos pushed it further by; if Uni of Ibadan released admission letter of 100 students, 80 students will be Igbos. Then the rest Nigerians will be dragging the remaining 20..

Akintola couldn't keep quiet regarding that education part. He said the Igbos can take all the government jobs, no problem... But you see the education part...? No, it can't be. That was why he voiced it out then that Yoruba RONU! Education is a must and without it, progress would be hard! And you know what? ... Yoruba actually woke up and stood against that injustice!

Igbo made Akintola an enemy instantly! Some Yorubas don't know the kind deep hatred an average Igbo has for the Yorubas. They think it's a joke..
