But you can work for Igbohos arrest in another country and get Kanu repatriated from another country for a trial. Technology has made tracking easy globally. APC should learn how to vet lies before dishing it out. I want the President to succeed but he needs to caution his handlers.

He is breaking the law. He has no right to do what he just did. This is clout chasing and overreach. If he is so passionate, he could have volunteered to lead a campaign on safe driving with FRSC in that axis and elsewhere in Nigeria. All this na show off. He needs to use his brain. You can't try this nonsense in western country
The best the FRSC boss will do is to promise the protesters a lip service. Laws are supposed to be made for human beings and not the other way round. The western world will not wait and watch lives being needlessly lost without doing the needful. Hence, there will be no reason for VDM to break the law.

Why are you thanking him? He was paid to come and perform and he did his job. You(Tinubu) do your job so Nigerians will thank you and maybe vote for you again
I perfectly understand the pains of those who seem to hate this government. The economy is harsh, indeed, but I think the President's gratitude is based on the message the song carries. The message is quite similar to the anthem the President switched us to.

AdolfHitlerxXx:
By the way... you 🫵 Nigerian Muslims. Your wahala is too much, most of you.

I'm a Muslim but if I become President, the first thing I would cancel is Government sponsored pilgrimage, Muslim or Christian.

If you can't afford to go on Hajj, pray at home. I would publicly announce to rich men to please be philanthropic and sponsor those who can't go. But Government money is to "refurbish" the country. Simple!

By the way, with all the trillions spent going on Hajj, many pilgrims return to embezzle money or molest their maids.

Same with Christians who pay tithes to Pastors and then refuse to pay tax. You sing loudly in church and then return to rape your maid.

Nigerians should focus on getting the basics of religion right FIRST. That includes not jumping the queue, not cheating anyone ( taking the share of 10 people for only one) etc.

Middle Easterners came and told us all that our forefathers religion was bad but theirs is superior. grin And mark these words : Jews for Christians and Arabs for Muslims are notoriously racist towards Blacks that they consider less than animals.

I have been to Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, I felt I was already in Heaven. I was shocked that our leaders visit these places, and still don't mind leaving Nigeria as a dunghill.

Just imagine the trillions Government has expended on pilgrimage directed to infrastructure and giving people basic moral education?

Shior.
I'm a Christian but l need to let you know that your post is highly commendable and you share almost hundred percent of my opinion on how religion should be practised. Unfortunately, people like us might never gain political power in this corrupt nation.

Obasanjo worked against this stuff back then.
Very selfish vindictive man
Mr 3rd term
Mr do or die affair
Mr. Election rigger of the century
This criticism is obviously born out of your excessive hatred for the man. Next time, try to be balanced. Your assertions are true but remember that OBJ also:
Was the first military leader to willingly hand over power to a civilian
Handed over a debt-free Nigeria to his successor
Gave birth to GSM
Formed a detribalised cabinet of tecnocrats as a president Nasir, Ngozi, Soludo...
Allowed freedom of speech as president and so on

I'm not against Tinubu but he's not a saint too. Remember Tinubu and:

Chicago certificate
Drug case in the USA and asset forfeiture
He frustrated Comrade Ayodele Akele out of Lagos State service as NLC leader in Lagos
Never ended well with all his three deputies
Stood against subsidy removal during GEJ's regime
Removed the same subsidy 13 years after etc

Morals of the story

We all have our weaknesses. There's no saint anywhere.

Jesus is the only way to God.

Any other way is false, and will lead to perdition... Our Ancestors who worshipped fallen gods such as Amadioha, Idemilii, Ogun, Sango, Ifa, etc, are all in hell suffering and begging...

May God open our eyes to the truth about Jesus Christ
Your conclusion about the heavenly current status of our ancestors is wrong. Jesus hadn't been introduced to Africa then. God knows how to judge them. You people should stop preaching as if you are the real mind of God. Even the great Prophet Samuel didn't know his mind when God wanted to pick another king to replace Saul.

Bobodee09:
A close friend of mine fell into this trap few years ago. His first child is an 8yr old girl, followed by a boy who is 6yrs old now. About 3yrs ago, he had another boy. I then told him that he shouldn't have gone for the 3rd child. Lo and behold he had another one a year after. At this point l was angry with him and the wife. He was forced to tell me that his wife, a graduate for that matter was opposed to family planning. As l write this, the guy is planning to leave home because the wife wants to kill him with financial demands. I don't even know whether to pity the simp or laugh at him.

Most times I don't like arguing this things cos it like you women never be accountable for anything.

So having those kids was actually only the man decisionhuh The woman didn't want them to be 4 ,the man was constantly raping her.

They just gave birth to the children last night and since he went broke due to the economy he should killed 2 out of those kids so he can take of wife and the remaining 2 according to you.


It very easy to know someone like you isn't married.


No this fact today, left to most men just having 1 or 2 kids is enough but it is women who clamor for more kids in marriage.
PoliticsRe: Eight Key Takeaways From Tinubu’s First Presidential Media Chat by Scholarforlife: 10:58am On Dec 24, 2024
*Tax reform is okay.

*Free market policy is good but cannot work in Nigeria because an average Nigerian trader is exploitative and profiteering by default.

*Our security outfit can do a lot better than this if its operations are fully digitalized, personnel are incentivised, recruitment process is sanitized and state/local policing is allowed.

*The Nigerian budget can never be effective with the ever-increasing recurrent but avoidable expenditures and redundant ministries which should be scrapped Sir.

*The stampedes were primarily caused by widespread hunger engendered by your reform policies and secondarily by by the inadequate preparation of the hapless well-intentioned organizers. So the major blame is yours Sir.

*Ruling out the possibility of policy reversal without any intervention such as phased border opening, subsidized transportation and education and price control of staple food items paints the picture of a heartless leader Sir.

*Finally an aggressive pursuit of a fully digitalized electoral process that prevents electoral malpractice from local to national elections should be your next reform.

Whoever composed that list needs a big knock on their head. Speaking of Yorubaland, the top hierarchy is;

Alaafin of Oyo
Ooni of Ife
Oba of Benin
Alake of Egba
Awujale of Ijebu

The seat of Ooni belongs to Oduduwa who happens to be the father of Oranmiyan, the first Alaafin of Oyo. Chronologically and biologically the son cannot be his father's senior. Ooni is the head of all the king's in Yoruba land.

After 2027 and if nigeria remains one nation, a law needs to be passed in order to bar Yoruba people from becoming president anytime again in this country. Those guys are not good economic / security managers. It is very apparent that they re not just good in it
So Obasanjo, the best president since 1999, is from which region? Just because Tinubu is under-performing is not enough to do a negative profiling of a whole ethnic group. There is no region that is devoid of good economic managers. Just that the Nigerian politics may prevent such from getting there.

The ideal number of children to have now is 2, regardless of their gender.
In fact it should be passed into law. Apart from this economic hardship the future reality of our population is worrisome.

Pauldollars:
Lagos State Government and Gov. Babajide Sanwo Olu should be appreciated by Labour Party, Peter Obi and Obidients for going over and beyond the Federal minimum wage of 70,000. No be everything people go dey complain about.
The questions asked are germane and in need of answers. The PAYE tax deducted from Lagos govt workers' is painfully high. This is in addition to the exorbitant cost of transportation. The governor's programs aren't alleviating any pain. How has Ounje Eko reduced hunger? What is the essence of Imota Rice Mill that is unable to push down the cost of rice in Lagos? If the cost of brt fares is permanently cut down to half of what it is now will Lagos go bankrupt? I'd rather he focuses on the above and leave the wage at 70k. He's just being sensational.

Softmirror:
Sonwo Olu has performed far better than Ambode.
It depends on how you perceive each regime.

Ambode was into infrastructures like Sanwo. He sacked the exploitative VIO and curbed the excesses of Lastma to the joy of Lagos motorists. Sanwo brought back VIO and has been lax with Lastma. Hence, the return of their recklessness on the road.

He partnered Kebbi to come up with Lake rice that was cheap, unlike Sanwo, who spent billions to build a rice mill that hasn't produced any accessible rice since it was commissioned.

To me Ambode is far more interested in people's welfare than Sanwo who has been busy playing politics with 25% discount on his ineffective Ounje Eko, Brt and Rail.

He refused to effect the minimum wage but he callously jerked up the school fees of Model Schools from 35k to 100k. Ambode would have been of better help to Lagosian than he is in this critical period.

HealthRe: Strike: FG Evokes ‘No Work, No Pay’ Policy Against Resident Doctors by Scholarforlife: 5:05am On Aug 31, 2024
Those who are blindly condemning the action of the doctors are biased and petty-minded.

According to the NARD, the woman in question has been in captivity for 8 months. They also said the woman is a nursing mother.

In the light of these facts, the govt and the association are both wrong. Can a serving lawmaker or a member of the executive stay that long in the den of kidnappers without any decisive action from the govt? The answer is obviously 'No'.

On the other hand, NARD should have embarked on nationwide protest rallies several times to embarrass the govt before now, while this strike action should have been the last resort in the case of lack of response from the govt. Finally, threatening workers who have other options is never the solution, rescuing the victim is. The Nigeria's doctor to patient ratio is already dishearteningly low.
