I don't think he specifically meant salaries. He was talking about gifts and other benefits given by the government to victorious teams.

And I'll agree with him. Why would you give each super Falcon player $100k, and then give the entire technical crew $50k to share. If they were whites would they be treated that way?

It's high time our government starts appreciating the efforts of our local coaches and teat them well.

Please where did you get the bolded from? I think that's incorrect . The technical crew weren't told to share $50k but it's $50k pledged to each of the 11-man technical crew, which is in order.

AdolfHitlerxXx:
SW wouldn't vote him again. We gave him 50% vote and yet he rarely donates there.

Let him send some of the looted Anambra billions to us otherwise.... na OYO

He couldn't even pretend to hide his disdain for the South West. Imagine donating to all regions in the country except the South West. Yet, the Yorubas are gaslighted everyday for being bigots and not supporting him even though he got a fairly good outing there in 2023.

owobokiri:
Your people are the ones sponsoring hooligans and violent urchins in the south-east,. You tactfully recruit them to go around killing, maiming, destroying things for fun just to blame IPOB and ESN. The ultimate aim is to discredit the Biafran agitations in the east, by tying the movement to lawlessness and brigandage. You guys supervised the jailbreaks these recent years in the east that have emptied the prisons of all their human quantities. All those criminals are the ones kidnapping and committing murder just to tarnish the image of a region.

The era of blaming Yorubas for your stupidity and refusing to accept responsibility is gone. Your governor, Soludo who is the Chief security officer of the state has come out to clarify that Igbos are responsible for 99% of the criminal activities perpetrated in the state. It's time to look inwards and talk to yourselves on how you can do better as a people. Pointing fingers at Yorubas is just being outright stupid and deflecting.

Biodun556:
King sunny Ade is ilaje by origin and he grew up in that area called ilaje Bariga. It is even absurd that his people are protesting against him

Stop saying what you don't know with so much confidence. King Sunny Ade isn't an Ilaje man. He is from Ondo town, Ekimogun in Ondo state. Even though Ilajes are ancestrally linked to Ondo state too, but Ondos and Ilajes are two different ethnic groups.

Femi Falana, SAN please focus on more consequential issues than these innanities. You claim these obligations are within the purview of local governments and it's the LCDA that have done this. Why the fuss then? I'm tempted to believe it's his son, Falz who's a so-called obidient impressing on his dad, to please his Ibo friends in the industry. You guys( Falz and dad) better fix up and smell the coffee. Times have changed now.

Many of these Reverend fathers are very useless. No one forced you to become a priest where you have to swear to an oath of celibacy. If you know you can't stay without a woman, why not become a normal pastor so you can marry and have sex the way it please you instead of being hypocritical.

Judolisco:
he even wrote post match reactions... No excuse abeg...

Exactly. He went as far as fabricating those post-match statements from the captain, Rasheedat and the coach. This is the height of incompetence. There is no excuse for this.

emkz:
Kemi Badenoch is not the only British politician with foreign heritage, but her hatred for Nigeria is well documented that you wonder why she wants to associate with the greatest country in the world.

Rishi Sunak, Sadiq Khan, Nadhim Zahawi, Priti Patel, and many of them have complete foreign parents, with some even first generation immigrants, but they do not badmouth their own original countries.

Kemi has decided to badmouth Nigeria and Nigerians to make herself more appealing to the British hegemons, yet they are not impressed. She knows that some countries (like UK) can withdraw their citizenship if she or her children are involved in certain crimes; so she needs a fall back option.

Kemi, even if your children are entitled to our citizenship, they must earn it by being immersed in our culture. Hatred for our country is not part of our culture. Teach your children to respect their ancestral land and the land will bless them.

You cannot teach them to love Nigeria when hatred sits in your heart for Nigeria. Our citizenship and passport are a blessing. Only the deserving will earn it. We'd access your children on their own merit and grant them their right, if they do not promote your evil and vile ideology against Nigeria.

She is nothing but a fool. While she's throwing Nigeria under the bus at any chance she gets, the likes of Rishi Sunak used the opportunity as PM to give India comparative advantage. There's a visa pathway he opened for Indians only to the UK that is still in force today even after he's longer PM.

What she says in this post is a blatant lie. Her children are automatically Nigerians and will get the Nigerian passport if they apply for it. The Nigerian constitution makes provision for that since at least one of their parents is Nigerian. It's only her husband that doesn't automatically have that privilege, just the way it is in the same UK where she is. Your British spouse has to earn at least £29k among other conditions before his/her partner can get spousal visa, not even citizenship.

This one think he's talking to fools. Same Buhari that removed provisions for fuel subsidy in the second half of his last budget so as to set up his successor, is the one that didn't want people to die.

Tinubu had no choice than to proceed with subsidy removal as the budget he inherited already had subsidy taken off.

If not because politicians get away with things easily in Nigeria, what would give an Aregbesola the temerity to lend his voice to expectations of good governance. Here is a man who was a colossal failure as both governor and minister. The worst ever, extremely incompetent and clueless.

RightChanneI:
As if tinibu is saint, see as PO dey give dem sleepless night!


Tinibu the saint was 73 while his first child was 63, no secondary school record, fake identity, druggie Lord, criminal, just name it!

It's easy to spot out gullible people like who believe Buhari was cloned. You're the targets of the compulsive liar, Obi. Seeing this woman and believing she's 63 takes a special type of stupid.

Alexis11:
Reading through that his broadcast on twitter, even if we put politics aside, it's pretty obvious that Obi is really a very terrible human being.

In one post, you whip up tribal sentiment, and then strongly discourage people from investing in Nigeria. A whole former presidential candidate for that matter!

That man is an extremely dangerous and divisive figure. He causes chaos and division everywhere he goes, just like he did between Catholics and Anglicans during his time as governor.

His foolish supporters that have been labeling anyone associated with APC and PDP structure of criminality, will change their tone now.

Trymeee:
Thought Tinubu said the governor brought sanity to Kaduna..... Same sanity El-rufai supposedly removed.


I will keep saying this, El-rufai had is bad, but no minister or governor in the north can run shoulders with is accomplishment. Dude was the conveyer of the new FCT and even new Croc city.

Are you serious at all? Are you implying El-Rufai was paying more than this and his successor reduced it? If anything, this is more of an indictment on El-Rufai than the current governor as he was there for eight years, paying the lecturers this measly salary. What are you praising him for then?

franchasng:
No need for Southerners....Atiku will definitely fly the coalition ticket alongside another Southerner like Peter Obi. The reason being that if a Southerner fly the coalition ticket, Tinubu will still rig him out like he did in 2023, but if a Northerner like Atiku fly the coalition ticket with the burning anger of Northerners against Tinubu right now, them no born am well to rig the election and go scold free.


Before you argue with me, remember that Peter Obi won 2023 Presidential election through Nigerian youth votes from all regions and tribes and through Christian peoples votes.


Obi didn't get much vote in Northwest.

He got massive votes in Middlebelt, in fact Obi won Middlebelt if you take away rigging.

Obi won Southeast.

Obi won SouthSouth

Obi got massive votes in Lagos that got massively reduced during final collation in Lagos.


Obi got some good votes in Northeast through Christian Northerners votes.


That's how Peter Obi won 2023 Presidential election but got robbed and it's backfiring on Nigeria already.



Now in 2027, Peter Obi won't be contesting, so you Tinubu minions, purchased political sycophants like Reno Omockery and co should better focus on Northerners that have concluded Tinubu's fate come 2027.


Tinubu already seen the hand writing and that's why he is desperately buying all Southern politicians to his side but that won't work cos South is not North.


The only thing Bola Tinubu should do now to save himself in 2027 is to do everything he can between now and 2026 to make Southeast happy and also go and beg Peter Obi not to accept to run with Atiku or any other Northerner the Northern coalition presents.


To please Igbos, Tinubu should do this:


1.) Release Nnamdi Kanu unconditionally immediately

2.) Appoint Igbo man IG of Police with immediate effect

3.) Release all innocent Igbo youths unjustly arrested by Buhari's regime and labeled as terrorists

4.) Begin serious dredging of Imo River or River Niger to the said standard that was set by oyimbo to make it accessible to ships

5.) De-militarilize Southeast


Can Tinubu do the aforementioned things? NO!


The implication? Southeast will align with the Northern coalition once it's set and Obi is on the ballot whether as the flag bearer or running mate, it doesn't matter again to us, thank you for your attention to this matter

Even if Tinubu make your region heaven overnight, you will still hate him and not vote for him. The man knows it and that's why he doesn't give a hoot about you. His focus is on the South-South and the other places in the North.

TONYE001:
Only question I want to ask:

When "they did the same thing to Jonathan" (according to you), did Tinubu understand and agree that it was a coordinated attack against Jonathan? Wasn't Tinubu everywhere attacking Jonathan on the security front? I still remember what happened during the Chibok incident.

Again, you still managed to bring PO into your post. Why not Atiku, or any other person?

Why must it always be Obi?

The person is talking about a North vs South thing. Why would you expect him to bring Atiku into it? Is Atiku a Southerner?

Obi is the other prominent Southerner contesting with Tinubu, so it makes sense to draw such parallels.

Wallade:
My sentiments exactly. Like when Obi had to dwell on the cloth (agbada) the president wore to Benue and said it wasn't a mourning cloth.

I don't understand; is mourning about the color of the cloth or mood and condolences?

This here was downright neurotic and petty by Obi, as aptly posited by Doyle. I mean bitching about an attire for mourning. Good grief!

Tjra:
Obi is not fit to be called a leader.

A tiny party like LP, he cannot even unite.

Shame

Exactly. He couldn't lead a small party like LP. This is same person some small-minded fellows think can handle a complex country like Nigeria.

MrSly:
I do not need your Lagos Ibadan express media jargon to validate the good work I saw and lived with first hand in Anambra State during PO's 8 years as governor. No other governor has tried matching it till today. So get lost.

Your druggie tinubu is a known criminal who also as drug trafficker. Fully indicted in Chicago. But you shamelessly support and defend the shameless.

You're indeed shameless. So it's Lagos Ibadan media that logged into your people's Twitter pages to call out your incompetent messiah, Obi when he was governor?

A man who receives advice from a mad man and makes a mess of himself in off-script interviews is your messiah. You would have just said you're supporting him because he's your kins man rather than deceiving yourselves on some phantom competence claim.

MrSly:
When I say this of PO some brown roof dwellers who has never left their state for once will vent trash just because they are afraid of the organic support the gentleman has.

Nobody is talking about your Obi. Why trying to insert him into every conversation?

The reason why people don't believe whatever nonsense you lots write praising Obi now was that the digital footprints are all available for us to see how most of the Obidient Anambra indigenes were cursing the same Obi of being incompetent while he was governor between 2006-2014. Then in 2023, the same Obi you were lampooning suddenly became competent and the best governor. The same cannot be said of Amaechi. Can't you see the deceit in all these?

OKOATA:
So that means if he Adeboye dies, God will also take his son along. How can God take your son, when he can simply raise a stone in your place to praise him. Mr Adeboye you aren't indispensable and moreover God already killed your first son even while at it. So what's with all of this right now?

His first son is still alive. It was the second one that has died.

greggng:
Why is it difficult to let the igbos go since you guys hate them this much ? A yoruba man will travel to Canada and UK and win elected position there ...An igbo man will do same over there ...but when it comes to Nigeria the tribalism is too much ...This country xanbot move forward with this kind of mindset

You're the same people that cede ordinary market leadership to only certain states within your Igbo tribe, yet you have to effrontery to talk about hate from Yorubas? You didn't see hate when you read that for over 15 years, the vice Chairmanship slot has been reserved for Igbos only. What you don't allow others in your clime, you expect to receive elsewhere. Very funny lots.

Goodvibes007:
They have fled, thereby making more room for Fulani boys and men.

They're all in Lagos and the South West complaining of smell and trying to lecture Sanwo-Olu and other governors there, about good governance.

seunmsg:
Dude was silent about the sexual harassment allegation.

It's the right thing to do since the matter is sub judice, meaning under litigation. There is no need for him to start making noise on it over the media. The courts will do their work.

Bone147:
As long as rape is in your family,you are not innocent guy

I guess all the people in your family are saints and none of them no matter how distantly related you are have done anything wrong in life before?

Even though he showed evidence to clear his name which the accuser herself couldn't dispute, you're still deliberately trying to pin it on him by referencing his cousin's case. Only a wicked and inconsiderate person does that. Are they the same person?

Redstorm:
You really think a senator will just wake up one morning and begin to blackmail the Senate president?

If she could do it to Reno, she could do to it to anyone. Why making excuses for her?

zero8zero:
He's not a good priest because he got a woman pregnant?. did he deny the pregnancy?

Yes, he's not a good priest. He swore an oath of celibacy, nobody forced me to. Why then go ahead sleeping with women, to the point of getting one pregnant? He must have been doing this secretly as well as many of these Catholic priests deceiving themselves.

A very shameless old man who likes to posture himself as the best thing to ever happen to Nigeria while downplaying his successors achievements.

After wasting billions of dollars on the failed refinery and electrification projects, he's surprised others could eventually achieve such, and is constantly trying to rubbish their efforts. Perhaps he could have been able to deliver those projects if he had focused on real governance and not get obsessed with enthroning himself as an emperor through the botched third-term bid.

Biggeststar01:
It’s because the only thing you bring to their country is crime.

Stop talking nonsense. There are lots of Nigerian professionals in South Africa - doctors, lecturers, PostDocs, engineers and what not.

bitbillionaire:
Well, don't forget that indigenes of SE alone
residing in Lagos could contribute to at least 40% of the vat generated in lagos

Yet couldn't contribute up to half of what only Oyo state generated. I guess you'll tell me they contributed 90% of Oyo and those of other regions too but couldn't replicate that in their region. I've never such self-deluded people in huge numbers.
